Chapter 1041 - Hundred-Year Cultivation in Private (1/2)

Old Man Xuan You returned with his tail tucked between his legs. Not only had he failed to kill Mo Wen and seize his treasures, but he had also even implicated himself.

Not only was his path to immortality severed from here on out, but he had also been confined to the Sword Valley for a thousand years, and the punishment was rather damaging to the entire Sword Valley. The influence of the Sword Valley within the Peng Lai Immortal Realm would necessarily dip in the days to come.

Nie Wuxin frightened a lot of people. The Peng Lai Immortal Realm cultivators who were still lurking in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension stealthily snuck out of the place, much like dogs who had lost their homes. With Nie Wuxin here, there was no way they would dare to stick their necks out. They did not even dare to stay hidden here.

Besides, this was the news they had to report to their own sects immediately, lest they accidentally ran themselves in Nie Wuxin’s line of fire.

“I didn’t think you’d come to the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension yourself, Senior Nie.”

Mo Wen flew out from Intentionless City to stand in front of Nie Wuxin, bowing slightly. He was indeed shocked. The second palace lord of the Huatian Palace had always been elusive, and yet she appeared in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension at this moment.

Besides, he could tell that Nie Wuxin very likely had personally come here because of his issue.

“Quite a lot of rascals have been dismissive of the Huatian Palace laws these days, running out and causing trouble left and right, so I came over to take a look for myself.”

Nie Wuxin’s face relaxed somewhat when she saw Mo Wen, but her entire manner was still rather aloof, like snow on Tian Shan Mountain.

“I’m grateful for your help, Senior Nie, and I will never forget this.”

Mo Wen knew that Nie Wuxin did not come here without a reason; any discerning person could tell that Nie Wuxin had obviously come to help him. Otherwise, there was no reason such a trivial issue would involve the second palace lord of Huatian Palace.

But why did Nie Wuxin step forth to help him? He had never seen her before.

“There’s no need to thank me. You saved the brat Nie Junxue in the preliminary ancient land, so it’s only natural that I repay her debt,” Nie Wuxin remarked indifferently.

There was a flash of understanding in Mo Wen’s eyes after he heard her response—so this was about Nie Junxue. The rumors were true indeed, that Nie Junxue and Nie Wuxin had a rather close relationship. Nie Wuxin had always been a calculative person, making sure to repay her debts of gratitude and seek revenge where necessary. The only reason why a palace lord like her had come to the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension was that she was here to repay Nie Junxue’s debt of gratitude to Mo Wen.

“You’re too courteous, Senior Nie. There was nothing much to it,” Mo Wen remarked modestly.

Truth be told, Nie Wuxin’s timely appearance had been of great help to Mo Wen. It was difficult to imagine what would have happened if Old Man Xuan You’s forbidden technique had been allowed to go wild. It was unlikely that they could have stopped it.

“From today onwards, I will be cultivating here, in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. You won’t have any objections to this, yes?” Nie Wuxin remarked apathetically.

Mo Wen was shocked. This Nie Wuxin was actually prepared to cultivate in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension for a century? Earlier on, he had thought she was just saying that for the sake of it, since a mystery dimension as small as the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension was simply not suitable for her to cultivate in. Besides, as a Huatian Palace Lord, there were no precious cultivation grounds she could not access, so why would she privately cultivate in the corner of a mystery dimension?

“You don’t have to do that, Senior Nie. The Green Ancient Mystery Dimension is really not a suitable environment—”

It would suffice to say that cultivating in a place like the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension would only hinder her progress. Mo Wen knew that a big part of the reason why Nie Wuxin was staying here was because of that debt.

“There’s no one staying in that mountain, right? I’ll be cultivating there in the future. No one else aside from you and a few people you appoint will be allowed to step foot there for a hundred years.”

Nie Wuxin cut Mo Wen off, then pointed to Intentionless Mountain, which was behind the Intentionless City, before she closed the case. She was domineering as always in the way she dealt with matters, never one to beat around the bush.

After that, she did not spare Mo Wen another glance. She took one step forth and headed right for that mountain, disappearing into the mountains instantly.

Three beams of jade light suddenly shot out from Intentionless Moutain, followed closely by Nie Wuxin’s voice that rang out, “Other than you, anyone heading up the mountain in the future has to carry this talisman with them, or they will be killed by the prohibition array in the mountain.”

Mo Wen took the three beams of jade light, which were three pieces of jade talisman. On them were carved mysterious patterns and they had a cool aura, cold and arrogant as Nie Wuxin.

Nie Wuxin leaving behind the jade talismans was as good as her permitting the people of the Ming Palace to seek her out in the mountain if there was any trouble in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension in the future.

There would unlikely be anyone who would dare stir trouble in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension after today.

“That woman is so strong.”

At this time, the Ink Scaled King and the rest of them had walked over as well, starring at the jade talismans in Mo Wen’s hands. The woman’s cultivation seemed bottomless, and it was likely that a cultivator with great attainment of the Supreme Profundity Realm would not be on par with her.

After the big battle, the Ink Scaled King and the rest of them were injured, and their wounds were not negligible. After all, their opponent had been Old Man Xuan You, a terrifying cultivator at the Supreme Profundity intermediary stage.

Out of the three of them, Gu Jingman was the most injured. Her cultivation had been the lowest of the three of them and her foundation the shakiest. On top of that, she had triggered the Illuminating Red Lotus several times to bind Old Man Xuan You, which dealt a lot of internal damage. Even Mo Wen was concerned.

“Wait for me in the secret chamber.” Mo Wen looked at Gu Jingman, concerned. He would not be at ease unless he checked over her injuries himself.

Gu Jingman hummed, then smiled radiantly and said, “Don’t worry, your older sister isn’t this frail. That old fool still has a long way to go if he wants to kill me.”

Mo Wen could not hold back the smile this time when he heard Gu Jingman call him an old fool. No matter how you spun it, he was still a Sword Valley Leader and a Supreme Profundity intermediary stage cultivator. Old Man Xuan You would probably be popping a vessel if he knew he was still being cursed out so boorishly.
