Chapter Seven Hundred and Seven – Mysteries

“Don’t be so fierce!” The old man seemed to not be affected by Zuo Mo’s killing intent at all. The wave of killing intent rushed at him and then would quickly dissipate.

Zuo Mo’s gaze focused and his heart shook.

The old man suddenly seemed to detect something and threw out, “You have to be careful, many people have their eyes on you.”

In the next moment, his figure disappeared.

Zuo Mo stilled but his expression changed slightly. At this time, he found that someone was coming close.

This old man … … was really strong!

He thought back to what the old man had just said. The other didn’t seem to have malicious intent.

As he thought, he silently left. He had scouted out the nearby area a few times before entering and was familiar with it. Pu Yao and Wei’s specialized cultivation was clearly effective. Even though Zuo Mo was not a master at moving under concealment, he didn’t have problems fooling average experts.

When he returned to his residence, he was still thinking about that old man. Such a strong old man definitely wasn’t someone unknown figure. Yet what shocked Zuo Mo was that he didn’t even know what power the old man cultivated.

What did the old man mean in his words?

Many people had their eyes on him? This was clearly a reminder!

Had he exposed himself somehow? Zuo Mo shook his head. While he did not know the old man’s intentions, the other’s reminder did not seem to be baseless.

The old man said “many people.” That meant more than one. Why were those people keeping an eye on him?

Earth mo weapons? This was the most likely guess. Earth mo weapons were the top mo weapon in the present mo territories and there were naturally numerous people that wanted them.

But Zuo Mo who had struggled on the border of life and death had an unusually sensitive sense for danger. This most plausible cause was rejected first.

Other than the earth mo weapons, what could most likely attract attention was his identity as Xiao Mo Ge and the shen power inheritance. If other people knew this, then it would be trouble!

Zuo Mo’s brow furrowed and then he put the problem to one side. He would not panic just because of some words from a strange old man. What he needed to do now was to forge a new earth mo weapon.

It was not an accidental idea when he thought of using earth mo weapons to trade for the Reverse Shadow Soul Silkgrass. But now, he felt that this plan was far easier to realize than going to Nether Spring Jie himself.

He was not an unknown person. No matter if it was Xiao Mo Ge or Xiao Yun Hai, both had status.

If he could make a new earth mo weapon, there would be countless people that would search for Reverse Shadow Soul Silkgrass. The earth mo weapon that was peerless in value in the eyes of many people was just an object to Zuo Mo. It was profitable to trade it for Reverse Shadow Soul Silkgrass.

If he, who had just forged the Sky Snake Ten Manifestation Spear, could forge a new earth mo weapon, his fame would reach an unprecedented height. At that time, his promise would be enough to drive people mad.

After organizing his thoughts, the shadow over Zuo Mo’s mind dissipated.

Regardless if it was the old man or other people, his goal was the Reverse Shadow Soul Silkgrass. Other matters had nothing to do with him. He did not fear people finding him.

In the dark of night, Ceng Lian’er was dressed in bright red robes like a rose blooming in the night. Her movements were silent and she didn’t even cause a ripple in the air as she appeared like a ghost in front of Qinghua Xue.

“Who are you? Why are you here?” Ceng Lian’er who saw Qinghua Xue and asked serenely.

Qinghua Xue felt her vision blur and then a figure appeared without warning in front of her.

Her expression changed slightly. She was astounded but kept her expression calm. She asked back, “Who are you?”

Ceng Lian’er’s eyes became blurry like a mist that floated in.

“Come in to talk!” Zuo Mo’s voice suddenly came from the room.

Ceng Lian’er’s figure immediately disappeared from her spot.

Shock finally came onto Qinghua Xue’s face.

———

“This is Qinghua Xue, I defeated her in the past. She was in the yao envoy and she recognized me so I decided to have her follow me to prevent her from going out and talking,” Zuo Mo explained. Other people would not know but he was clear that Ceng Lian’er really intended to kill her just now. If he had been a moment later in speaking, Qinghua Xue would probably be a corpse right now.

“I would not squabble with a little girl.” An imperceptible smile flashed across Ceng Lian’er’s mouth.
