Chapter 798: The Mystery of Mo Wen’s Hometown

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

After Mo Wen returned to the university, he said nothing. He merely said that Shen Jing had gone to a faraway place and would not be back for a while. Sensing that something was off with Mo Wen, Qin Xiaoyou was very understanding and did not ask much.

After that, for a period of time, Mo Wen stayed on campus and spent all his time with Qin Xiaoyou. When he was free, he would occasionally guide Qin Xiaoyou in her cultivation practice. However, he devoted most of his time to practicing, locking himself in the room.

Shen Jing seemed to have completely disappeared. Whenever students asked about her, the school would explain that Shen Jing had resigned and had gone overseas to further her studies.

Two days later, Lin Qing came to Mo Wen’s place to visit him. She was there because she wanted to resign.

“Where do you plan to go?” Mo Wen glanced at the resignation letter before casting it on the side table.

“I’m going home,” Lin Qing answered.

“Going home? Where is your home?” Mo Wen asked, interested. Lin Qing was the daughter of Professor Pan. Her home was in the capital. If she was merely visiting home, she would not need to resign from her role as the CEO of the Blue Ocean Group.

“Yuan Chen Mystery Dimension. Goddess Cult.” Lin Qing cast a glance at Mo Wen. She had a faint smile on her face.

“As I suspected, you have a sect behind you. Yuan Chen Mystery Dimension. So, it turns out that you are a prominent figure from the Inner worlds. Pardon my lack of manners.” Mo Wen made a face, as though he was overwhelmed by flattery and honor.

Lin Qing rolled her eyes at Mo Wen. She placed both her hands on the table in the style of a go-getting girl. She drew her face close to Mo Wen’s and, with breath that smelled of orchids, said, “Soon, we will meet again. However, when that time comes, our identities will be different. Remember, I am Lin Qing of the Goddess Cult.”

With those words, Lin Qing turned and proudly walked away in her high heels. Mo Wen gazed at her slender silhouette as she departed.

“The Yuan Chen Mystery Dimension’s Goddess Cult? No wonder.” Mo Wen smiled. He had always been curious about Lin Qing’s Goddess Technique. A sect that had such a peculiar martial arts technique was certainly not weak.

After Lin Qing left, the Blue Ocean Group was left without a leader. However, Mo Wen did not mind. Wealth was just a worldly possession. Neither he nor Qin Xiaoyou were concerned about such things. Also, after Lin Qing had consolidated the Blue Ocean Group, the internal issues had long been settled. He could just pass the Blue Ocean Group to Wang Yinru and arrange a few Dafang Sect confidants to manage it and they would be up to the task.

“Sister Lin Qing’s Goddess Technique is so miraculous. When I first began to practice cultivating, she did not have any cultivation. Now, she has already far surpassed me,” Qin Xiaoyou said, somewhat enviously.

Leaping from an ordinary person to the Embryonic Breathing Realm would most likely draw the envy of anyone if word of it got out. Qin Xiaoyou had practiced so hard for so long, and right now she was still only at the Qi Nucleation Realm.

“What are you envious about? How long have you been practicing? Lin Qing has been practicing the Goddess Technique since she was young. Until she broke through the sixth level she only had Embryonic Breathing Realm cultivation. That was decades of accumulation.”

Mo Wen rolled his eyes at Qin Xiaoyou. She had barely practiced for half a year, and she had gone from an ordinary person to a practitioner of the Qi Nucleation Realm. This cultivation speed was truly frightening and worthy of admiration.

“However, reaching the sixth level only seems to be the true beginning for the Goddess Technique. Once this harsh martial arts method showed results, the person would certainly improve by leaps and bounds. I saw her not long ago, and since then she has actually already reached the later stage of the Embryonic Breathing Realm. Maybe the next time I see her, she will have gone through an even larger change.”

Mo Wen shook his head. With such a strange martial arts method like the Goddess Technique, anything was possible. The person who created this martial arts method must have been monstrous.

Winter came and summer passed. The seasons changed and another hot summer descended. The semester was about to end and the university was about to welcome another summer holiday.

“Mo Wen, come quickly. Look at this dress. Is it nice?” Qin Xiaoyou stood before a mirror and kept signaling Mo Wen. She kept posing in front of the mirror. It had been a long time since she had dressed so carefully. But today was a special day. Mo Wen was going to bring her back to his home.

Mo Wen rubbed his head as he helplessly walked up to Qin Xiaoyou and stood beside her. He had lost count of how many times she had called him over. Qin Xiaoyou seemed to have tried every skirt and dress that she owned on at least once. Usually, he paid no attention, but right now Mo Wen discovered that women could actually own so many clothes! Even Qin Xiaoyou was no exception.

“Wow, you are so beautiful. You are practically a goddess,” Mo Wen said with an exaggerated expression. He was not in the mood to see whether Qin Xiaoyou’s clothes looked nice. He only wished that she would quickly choose what to wear. No matter how ugly her outfit was, he would say that it looked nice.

“Humph. Phony and insincere.” Qin Xiaoyou rolled her eyes at Mo Wen.

“It’s true. The dress that you are wearing is really too beautiful.” Mo Wen tried hard to look sincere. He seemed as though he was appreciating a work of art.

“Am I only beautiful when I wear this dress? That means that this dress has overshadowed my original beauty. I’ll change.” Qin Xiaoyou turned around very decisively. She left Mo Wen looking at her shadow as she continued to choose her clothes.

Mo Wen had a sudden urge to scratch his brains out. When a woman became serious, she would be truly frightening. How could he attend to this woman well?

“How about this set? How about it? Quickly, tell me.”

“It’s beautiful, too beautiful. You were originally very beautiful. When wearing this dress, you are even more beautiful.”

“I’m just slightly more beautiful. Does it not bring out any other unique qualities? Never mind, I’ll change it.”

Mo Wen was lost for words.

“How about this set? Is it nice or not?”

Mo Wen didn’t respond.

Finally, after roughly two hours of choosing, Qin Xiaoyou was ready. She had chosen a simple yet elegant princess dress.

Mo Wen wiped away a bead of cold sweat. Qin Xiaoyou changing clothes was almost more tiring than fighting against a Martial Arts Grandmaster.

Qin Xiaoyou’s had a good eye for fashion. She chose a very appropriate yet beautiful dress.

Shennongjia was the most ancient primeval forest area in Ancient Hua Xia. According to legend, Shennongjia contained many ancient secrets. Some people said that there were deities in there. Others said there were wildlings. There were even people who said that there were devils, demons, ghosts, and other monsters. There were many different opinions.

All in all, Shennongjia was very mysterious. After thousands of years, no one could truly understand this primeval forest.

Mo Wen and Qin Xiaoyou walked casually through the primeval forest holding hands. This precipitous primeval forest seemed to be their backyard. Along the way, they walked comfortably; even the most dangerous mountain paths were trodden by them as though they were walking on flat ground.

“Mo Wen, why is your house so secluded?” Qin Xiaoyou looked helplessly at Mo Wen. She had lost track of how many tall mountains they had crossed and how much of the primeval forest they had traversed.

“Did I not tell you? I am a person of the mountains.”

Mo Wen’s body had always been strong. From a young age, his physical strength had been far superior to that of ordinary people. It was because he had grown up in this deep mountain forest. He had tempered his physique since childhood.

Qin Xiaoyou was speechless. Being a person of the mountains didn’t explain this level of seclusion. If they went any deeper into the forest, she would suspect that Mo Wen was born a wildling.

Both of them were ancient martial art practitioners. Walking in such barren mountains posed no difficulty for them. They walked swiftly, as though they were flying. If it was an ordinary person, making it out of such a deep mountain forest would be extremely difficult.

However, Qin Xiaoyou suddenly thought that Mo Wen did not seem to be an ordinary person. In an instant, she felt that his behavior was entirely reasonable. As expected, the mountains had produced an expert.

The two of them were not in a hurry. It was as though they were vacationing in the mountains. After walking for half a day, they finally arrived before a tall mountain.

“You live on this mountain?” Qin Xiaoyou raised her head and looked at the tall mountain. It towered above the clouds and was exceptionally precipitous. This sort of craggy rock mountain did not seem suitable for people to live on. For a person like Mo Wen to live there, however, did not seem strange.

“Of course not. Come with me.” Mo Wen dragged Qin Xiaoyou along with him and directly flew up the mountain. Previously, whenever he went home, he would climb up the mountain bit by bit. Right now, he had high cultivation, so he did not need to climb anymore. Mo Wen pulled Qin Xiaoyou along as he turned left and right. Finally, he entered into a canyon. The space was not big and got narrower the deeper they went. In the end, it was only wide enough for one person to pass through at a time. Looking up above, the sky was a line. The cliffs on both sides had many hidden plank paths. Before this, when Mo Wen went home, he would walk past these plank paths.

On a rock wall, there was a large protruding boulder. Below the large boulder, a cave was hidden. Both sides of the cave were covered in vines and weeds. If a person was not especially familiar with this place, they would most likely be unable to discover this cave at all.

“Your home is in a cave?” Qin Xiaoyou asked curiously. She followed Mo Wen and looked at the surrounding cave walls. It was as she would expect of a hermit expert; the place they stayed in was different from everyone else. Could it be that Mo Wen’s mother was also a hermit expert?

“That’s right. In the future, you will also stay in a cave with me.” Mo Wen rolled his eyes at Qin Xiaoyou.

Qin Xiaoyou grabbed hold of Mo Wen’s arm. With a look of indifference, she said, “As long as I am with you, I don’t care if we live in a cave.”

“You want to stay in a cave? I have no interest in doing so.”

The cave was very deep. The deeper they went, the more it seemed that there was no end. It was like a very long passageway. The two of them walked for an indeterminate amount of time before a speck of white light appeared. The light was just the size of a firefly. They could be certain that if they wanted to leave the cave, they still had a long way to go.

“That’s not right!” Mo Wen was walking when he suddenly stopped and looked at the surroundings with an alarmed expression.

“What’s the matter?” Qin Xiaoyou was startled. She looked at Mo Wen quizzically. She had not noticed anything different.

“There was an air rippling just now. Although it was very faint, it can’t hide from my deified soul.”

Mo Wen frowned. The air rippling was just in passing, and even he had nearly missed it. If he had not practiced Deified Soul Power and his sensory ability was not comparable to that of a Primordial Soul realm immortal cultivator, he most likely would not have been able to discover such a tiny change.

Mo Wen walked back a short distance. As expected, the tiny air rippling once again appeared. This time, he was keeping an eye out especially for it. He was certain that it was not an illusion. He once again walked deeper into the cave, and the air rippling once again appeared.

“Could it be… just now, that was a Door of Space!”

A look of astonishment flashed in Mo Wen’s eyes. If it was a Door of Space, didn’t that mean that he had unknowingly walked from one space to another space. It could even be said that his home was not in the Source World at all but in another space!
