798 The Mystery of Mo Wen’s Hometown (1/2)

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.
