889 When Foes Mee (1/2)

”What's the matter?” Xie Rengui looked at Yun Peng and Wang He quizzically. They were behaving in a very odd manner.

”Sect Leader, I'm afraid this person was the mysterious senior we met that day...”

Yun Peng gave a wry smile and summarized what had happened at the Five Tigers Sect. He had already understood that this mysterious young man had been protecting Su Wan'er.

Both of them broke out in a cold sweat. It was lucky that they had taken Su Wan'er along when they went to the branch of the Huatian palace. If not, the consequences might have been dire. They had no idea if that youngster was the mysterious man who appeared at Five Tigers Sect, but he must be linked to the matter.

Five Tigers Sect was just a minor sect. It was impossible for them to have any connections with the strong practitioners of the Martial Arts Grandmaster Realm. Moreover, that person had apparently been defending Su Wan'er, and this youngster was with Su Wan'er now.

”What? That's him!”

Xie Rengui peered at Mo Wen in shock then turned his gaze towards Su Wan'er and Wang Qian. The reason was so simple that he could understand it in an instant, but he just had not expected Su Wan'er to have saved such a horrifyingly strong practitioner when she had simply descended the hill to gather herbs. This...

By then, Wang Qian had also caught hold of the situation and was in disbelief. She knew that Mo Wen was someone who was skilled in martial arts and had considerable cultivation, but she had not imagined that he was so good. ”He can't be that old,” she thought. ”At most, he's around the same age as I am.”

Su Wan'er was still in a daze, but she had recognized the essence of the problem. Was Brother Mo the invincible, strong practitioner who had helped her at the Five Tigers Sect? She couldn't believe that he was the one who had protected her and given them the Dragon City Talisman. At that time, Brother Mo had needed her to protect and treat him. Everything had changed so quickly.

”Mo Wen is a member of the Huatian Palace Martial Arts Grandmaster Palace Hall. As the youngest executive of the Martial Arts Grandmaster Palace Hall, it's a given for him to take part in the Heaven List Tournament.”

Only Tang Zhizhi remained calm because she already knew Mo Wen's identity. However, she was still surprised that he had become a member of the Martial Arts Grandmaster Palace Hall at such a young age. Logically speaking, his cultivation couldn't be too high, at most attaining the Martial Arts Grandmaster First Realm. Yet, he had managed to enter the Mechanized Maze City, which many strong practitioners of the Martial Arts Grandmaster could not.

”Wan'er, your mother was right. Good begets good.”

With complex emotions, Wang Qian glanced at Wan'er. She was the person she felt closest to in the entire Five Tigers Sect. Wan'er was kind-hearted and innocent by nature. Her principle was to perform good deeds without asking for anything in return. Many seniors and juniors in the Five Tigers Sect could not understand her behavior. Because she was too kind, Wan'er had also been hurt countless times. Despite hearing advice from the seniors and juniors, Wan'er kept to her principles. Gradually, Wan'er and the others drifted apart due to the difference between them.

Wan'er's favorite words were those that were left behind by her mother.

Wang Qian admired Su Wan'er a lot for her simplicity and kind nature. She knew she would not be able to sacrifice so much to show kindness for others. In her opinion, it was right to do good, but it should be within one's own capabilities. However, this was not the case for Wan'er.

Good deeds build good karma. So, karma exists.

”Sister Tang, did Brother Mo also take part in the Heaven List Tournament? Do you think he can make it into the top ten?” Su Wan'er blushed and asked excitedly.

It was natural for her to feel this way since the top ten ranking of the Heaven List was the hot topic these days, and she had suddenly discovered someone whom she knew was part of it.

”This is... hard to tell.”

Tang Zhizhi forced a smile. Looking at the current situation, this year's Heaven List Tournament undoubtedly would be pretty shocking. Guo Mengqiao, who she had always thought would claim first position in the Heaven List, was only in eighth place at the moment. It was hard to tell whether he would even be able to secure this position.

As for the other genius from the Martial Arts Grandmaster Palace Hall, Chou Tong, it was almost impossible for him to get into the top ten. He was not even in the top 20 at the moment.

Since two strong practitioners from the Martial Arts Grandmaster Palace Hall also ended up in this situation, she did not hold out any hopes for Mo Wen. Of course, it would not be nice for her to say this in front of everyone.

...

”Mo Wen!”

Almost simultaneously, Wang Yinru and her group stood up abruptly, all eyes on the person who had turned out to be Mo Wen, the one whom they had been waiting for.

”Palace Master has broken through to the Mechanized Maze City.” Tan Qiyue's eyes beamed with joy. The stronger Mo Wen was, the better it was for Ming Palace.

”It's a surprise that he has managed to advance to this stage.” Hu Qiongqi was astounded. He had previously stayed in the same dormitory as Mo Wen, and they were of the same generation. This struck him even deeper. They were now worlds apart.

”Two months ago, his cultivation was just on par with mine. It hasn't been that long, and he has already advanced so much. He is indeed fearsome.” Qin Banshuang took a deep breath, thinking about the times he had spent with Mo Wen at theTan Zi Beast Lair. Only a few months had passed, yet it felt like centuries.

”Is the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension finally going to rise?”

The same thought occurred to Granny Huiling, Bu Zhangkun, Pavilion Leader Ye Rong, and the others.

”Spring has finally arrived for the Ming Preservation Faction.”

Out of all of them, Chen Zi from the Intentionless Sect was the most emotional. He was originally from the Ming Preservation Faction, and they had held the same belief for generations. At this moment, their belief finally had a chance to turn into reality.
