Ye Qing looked at the woman in the white dress with a blank face, her expression full of confusion.

Sitting opposite Ye Qing, Chu Mo was also slightly frowning; he could roughly guess the identity of this woman. Based on the performance of the young man in the splendid attire, this beautiful woman in the white dress was probably none other than Jiang Caiyue, ranked tenth on the Heavenly Ranking. She even defeated Junior King Ji? Junior King Ji? Hearing this surname, Chu Mo couldn't help but frown. Moreover, upon hearing the words 'Imperial Clan,' Chu Mo felt somewhat speechless.

The Luotian Imperial Clan just wouldn't leave him alone, would they? Had he encountered them as soon as he entered the Trial Field?

But what did this woman mean by coming up to him?

"You're paying attention to me? Why?" Although Ye Qing was puzzled, she still replied with a question, her eyes carrying a trace of nervousness and vigilance as she instinctively glanced at Chu Mo opposite her.

To her, Chu Mo was now her backbone.

"Come with me," Jiang Caiyue said indifferently to Ye Qing, "Your body constitution is very special and resonates with mine; hence, I'm aware of your constitution. Come with me, become my disciple, and I will make you a true powerhouse!"

In this moment, Chu Mo couldn't help but use the Heaven-reaching Divine Mirror to take a covert look at Jiang Caiyue. Although he didn't show any signs of surprise, his heart was greatly shocked.

"A high-level Supreme with a Fire Phoenix Body, a top-grade Daoist Realm constitution."

This mysterious Jiang Caiyue actually shared the same body constitution as Ye Qing!

A high-level Supreme!

And to be so young, Chu Mo suddenly realized why the Trial Field was said to be the real gathering place for Heavenly Geniuses.

It seemed every person he encountered was outstanding.

No wonder Ling Yuwei had hesitated before deciding whether to allow him to enter so soon. She probably worried not just about the dangers but also about him becoming disheartened! However, Ling Yuwei must have thought it through, as when Chu Mo first entered the world of illusionary deities, any ordinary deity cultivator could have easily crushed him to death. But he wasn't disheartened by that. And now, he definitely won't be.

"I won't." Although Ye Qing could feel the sincerity of the woman in the white dress before her—after all, sincerity is not necessarily related to the warmth of one's voice—she directly refused the offer. She was personally taught by the young master. Although he hadn't officially recognized her as his disciple, in Ye Qing's mind, she had long regarded Chu Mo as her master.

As for the matter of age, she never considered the problem of who was older or who was younger between her and the young master. There's always someone who knows more than oneself; even the wise can have a teacher! So, even if she were to take someone younger than herself as her master, it wouldn't be surprising.

At this moment, Jiang Caiyue turned her gaze to Chu Mo, her eyes void of contempt or any emotion, and said with an icy tone, "Does she listen to you?"

Chu Mo's heart skipped slightly as he finally took a clear look at this woman's facial features. It wasn't that he hadn't seen them clearly before, but because there was a layer of Daoist radiance on Jiang Caiyue's face; at first glance, she seemed to be a very beautiful woman with an excellent demeanor. However, when she faced Chu Mo, he realized that this woman was not just pretty—she was stunningly beautiful!

But what made his heart skip was not Jiang Caiyue's beauty, but the fact that when she talked to him just now, she actually used a trace of spiritual power to suppress him!

It was suppression, not an attack.

It was the kind of pressure that aimed to subconsciously instill a fear of her in Chu Mo. It was a small trick of a top-level warrior; though it was not harmful, it made one feel uncomfortable.

In that instance, Chu Mo's heartbeat quickened for just a half-beat. Such tricks were meaningless to him; less reliable than bullshit.

"Miss, we don't seem to know each other, right?" Chu Mo said to Jiang Caiyue in a soft voice.

They hadn't communicated through mental telepathy but simply spoke out loud.

In the inn's main hall, there were three to four tables of people, totaling less than fifteen. At this moment, all of them were somewhat staring at Chu Mo in dismay.

Was this kid pretending to be dumb or was he really dumb?

He didn't know Jiang Caiyue?

By the looks of it, he seemed to want to reject her?

Has he gone mad?

These thoughts crazily flitted through the minds of those people.

Jiang Caiyue was also slightly startled; she hadn't expected this man to be unaffected by her spiritual suppression, nor did she expect him to talk to her in such a manner. When was the last time someone spoke to her with this attitude? She couldn't remember, and she wasn't even sure if anyone had ever spoken to her this way.

Therefore—

"You want to catch my attention? You've got the wrong idea," Jiang Caiyue said coldly.

As expected!

The few tables of people suddenly became as excited as if they had been injected with adrenaline. They all offered their silent condolences to Chu Mo, thinking that he was being too pretentious. Facing Jiang Caiyue, how dare he speak to her with that attitude? He truly didn't know whether he was alive or dead!

Especially the young man in the splendid attire, who had an expression full of schadenfreude.

"I don't understand what you're saying, nor do I understand what you're trying to do. If you think you can bully others just because you're a Supreme, then I don't mind using a battle to protect my friends," Chu Mo said calmly, looking at Jiang Caiyue. "As for catching your attention? You're thinking too much."

Silence!

The entire tavern instantly fell deathly silent!

The people at those few tables couldn't help but feel tense for Chu Mo. They all thought to themselves: Is this guy seeking death? Doesn't he know who Jiang Caiyue is? Or is he really trying to provoke Jiang Caiyue desperately in this manner, trying to get her attention?

In their minds, the latter possibility was too small because the cost of such an action was simply too great!

This is Jiang Caiyue!

A mighty figure ranked tenth on the Heavenly Ranking!

Not to mention the glorious and powerful family behind her.

Haven't you seen her beat up even princes of the Imperial Clan? At most she gives them the face not to kill them. What makes you so tough?

Jiang Caiyue was also a bit stunned; if she had completely disregarded Chu Mo when she first entered, now, the young man's various actions had indeed piqued her interest.

Because in the entire Trial Field, there are basically none left who dare to talk to her like this!

Does he really not recognize her?

For a moment, Jiang Caiyue actually felt uncertain.

After a long pause, just as she was about to speak, she turned her head to glance at those people who were staring wide-eyed at the commotion and coldly commanded with a frown, "All of you, get out."

Why should we!

That was what the group of people were thinking at that moment. But their thoughts could only remain unspoken, and not a single person resisted. They all obediently settled their bills and left with faces of dismay.

As for the tavern's waiters, after collecting the money, they also conscientiously disappeared.

In the vast tavern hall, only the three of them were left.

Chu Mo's lips twitched, thinking to himself that this woman was very domineering! Moreover, it seemed that everyone recognized her fame. She even dared to punish princes of the Imperial Clan... It looked like she was someone with a significant background.

At that moment, Jiang Caiyue, still with a cold voice but slightly softer, said: "I apologize if I've caused any misunderstanding."

Luckily Jiang Caiyue had just sent everyone out, otherwise her words would probably have shocked the rest into stupidity!

The Heavenly Genius from the Jiang Family actually apologizing to someone? And to two "little cultivators" at the Quasi-Supreme Realm? This was simply... unimaginable!

Quasi-Supreme... Although it only has an additional word 'quasi', the difficulty of removing this word to become a true Supreme is unimaginable. Even under the normal rules of Heaven and Earth in this starry sky, achieving the Daoist Realm is still one in a billion—heaven and earth to millions of people's dreams.

How many cultivators spend their entire lives unable to advance beyond the Quasi-Supreme Realm. They see the door right there, yet they just can't push it open.

Chu Mo hadn't expected Jiang Caiyue to apologize; he was also someone who responded better to soft approaches than hard ones, and the look on his face eased slightly as he spoke in a deep voice: "I accept your apology. However, I want to know, what do you want with my friend? If I'm not mistaken, you should also be of the Fire Phoenix Body. I've heard that in the Cultivation Realm, there are people who deliberately find others with the same constitution as themselves, then refine them away, use them as nourishment, and cultivate their own constitution..."

"Enough!" Jiang Caiyue suddenly frowned and glared at Chu Mo.

Chu Mo's opening statement had already made Jiang Caiyue feel uncomfortable. What does he mean "I accept your apology"? Please, I'm just indicating that I had no ill intentions. Do you really think I'm apologizing to you? I don't want to scare the girl in front of me, so she doesn't get a bad impression of me!

But Chu Mo's subsequent words infuriated Jiang Caiyue beyond measure. Seething with anger.

She didn't even bother to ask how he knew she possessed the Fire Phoenix Body—a secret matter—instead, she looked furiously at Chu Mo: "What right do you have to speak of me like this? What kind of person do you think I am? The kind of evildoer who commits all kinds of bad deeds? How is it possible for such things... to happen to me?"

The tavern was sealed by Jiang Caiyue, and her voice couldn't escape. However, all of this was overheard by the conscientious Quasi-Supreme waiter who had left earlier. He could swear he did not intend to eavesdrop. Who would have thought that after clearing everyone out, this miss would still end up arguing with that young man?

Speaking of which, this Quasi-Supreme Realm waiter felt he had finally gained some insight today. He had always felt inferior here; of course, the former him wasn't like that. How could someone so young and already at the Quasi-Supreme level feel inferior? But what place is this? This is where the top Heavenly Geniuses gather!

He, who had gotten an entry quota to the Trial Field after much difficulty, was battered by various experiences upon entering. In the end, for the sake of self-preservation, he simply became a waiter in this tavern. Because if he continued to wander outside, he definitely would not live to see the day he left this place!

In his eyes, a Quasi-Supreme should be humble, act as the lowest level in the Trial Field, bow their heads, and strive to achieve the Daoist Realm—that is the proper path.

But today, he finally understood that there is another kind of person in this world. This kind, no matter when, would never bow to anyone!

This is what it truly means to be a Heavenly Genius!
