Chapter 134: Entering The Five Elements Desolate Domain

Zhen Shaoke hurried to make introductions, ”Wuji, you should be familiar with Heaven Seeking Palace Pill Pagoda's Pill Master Mu. This is the Heaven Seeking Palace Sword Lake's Zuo Shaoyi.”

Between his words, Zhen Shaoke gestured between Mu Ying and the oval faced lady by her side.

Mu Ying also smiled and said to the lady called Zuo Shaoyi, ”Yes, he’s the Pill Master Mo I wanted to introduce you to. Not only is his attainment in the Pill Dao high, he also has a big heart.”

Heaven Seeking Palace's cheap goods? [1] Zhen Shaoke's pronunciation was not particularly accurate, which caused Mo Wuji to mistake Sword Lake as cheap goods. However, Mo Wuji was sure that Zhen Shaoke definitely wouldn't say cheap goods, thus he hastily asked, ”Shaoke, you said Heaven Seeking Palace’s what?”

”Sword Lake. It's similar to the Pill Pagoda. In the Heaven Seeking Palace, there's the Pill Pagoda, Sword Lake, Smith Summit, etc. These are the Heaven Seeking Palace's most talented…” Zhen Shaoke seemed to be finding a more apt phrase to describe them, but Mo Wuji could infer what he was saying. These were the Heaven Seeking Palace's various specialisations.

”Senior Mu, Senior Zuo, please come in…” Even though he did not know why these two were doing here, Mo Wuji still made an inviting gesture.

After his gesture, he was suddenly reminded of the wreck that was his room.

Just as Mo Wuji was about to suggest to use Zhen Shaoke's room to host the guests, the lady called Zuo Shaoyi furrowed her brows and said, ”Senior apprentice sister Mu, I'm suddenly feeling a little unwell. How about we do this some other time?”

Mu Ying immediately understood the meaning behind Zuo Shaoyi's words and she could only apologetically say to Mo Wuji, ”Pill Master Mo, junior apprentice sister Zuo is feeling unwell. We’ll come visit some other time.”

Mu Ying also didn't understand how Mo Wuji could get himself into such a miserable state.

”It's okay, it’s okay.” Mo Wuji hastily waved his hands, he didn't even know why these two ladies were here.

After sending the two ladies off, Mo Wuji and Zhen Shaoke entered the room.

As Zhen Shaoke entered Mo Wuji's room, his mouth went ajar. What was Mo Wuji doing in here?

Mo Wuji patted Zhen Shaoke's shoulders, ”Shaoke, let's ignore the state of my room. Come tell me, why were Mu Ying and that Heaven Seeking Palace's Zuo Shaoyi doing here? Don't tell me they’re lacking placings?”

Other sects might lack Five Elements Desolate Domain placings but Mo Wuji was sure the Heaven Seeking Palace wasn't one of them.

Zhen Shaoke chuckled, ”That Zuo Shaoyi is a genius in the Heaven Seeking Palace Sword Lake. Her reputation is no lesser than the Pill Pagoda's Mu Ying. She was here to befriend you. From the looks of it, you didn't meet her expectations so she turned and left.”

Mo Wuji stared at Zhen Shaoke with his eyes wide open. Only after some time, he determined that Zhen Shaoke wasn't lying to him, ”Shaoke, even if I was the 50th place in the pill competition, I wouldn't have gained the attention of a Heaven Seeking Palace genius right? How preposterous is that?”

Mo Wuji wasn't ugly, but he was not world-shakingly handsome either. Moreover, the cultivation world had no lack of handsome lady-killers. He really found it hard to believe that Zuo Shaoyi, this Heaven Seeking Palace genius, would actually pay him a visit to befriend him. That simply sounded absurd.

Zhen Shaoke continued chuckling, ”I unintentionally overheard their conversation just now. It seems like Zuo Shaoyi is not looking for you to be her dao companion. But Zuo Shaoyi actually has an older sister, and her older sister's spiritual roots are also ordinary…”

Without needing Zhen Shaoke to continue, Mo Wuji had completely made sense of the situation. It looks like his performance had earned her acknowledgement. Even though his spiritual roots were trash, at least he could concoct pills, and could be considered to have good prospects. That's why she wanted to introduce him to her older sister.

”Keke, so she wants to be my little sister ah,” Mo Wuji chuckled as well, acting like it was nothing important.

Zhen Shaoke bashfully scratched his nose, ”That seems like the case. I believe, in her eyes, introducing you as her brother-in-law is your good fortune.”

Mo Wuji waved it off, ”Let's not talk about her, did you get my spiritual herbs?”

Zhen Shaoke passed the bag in his hands to Mo Wuji, ”There are three batches of Earthly Soul Protecting Pill ingredients here. I couldn't get anymore.”

”This is more than enough.” Mo Wuji opened the bag and examined his herbs. They were preserved properly, and there were even some energy gathering talismans inside. He no longer acted courteously in front of Zhen Shaoke, and directly threw the spiritual herbs into his storage bag.

At this point in time, he wouldn't concoct pills or even practice. That would have to wait till when he entered the Five Elements Desolate Domain.

”These are some brief introductions of the Five Elements Desolate Domain and some simple maps. Take them.” Zhen Shaoke retrieved another two pamphlets and passed them to Mo Wuji.

Seeing Mo Wuji store them properly, Zhen Shaoke continued, ”The Five Elements Desolate Domain is opening in day. Hurry and rest, I'll no longer bother you.”

He could easily tell that Mo Wuji desperately needed rest, so he didn't say anything else.
