Chapter 387: Tian Chi Manor (2/2)
For a long time, no one was able to come out with a detailed solution.
A red flying messenger sword broke the silence. Yan Huimeng lifted her hand and catched the flying sword, extending her spiritual will inwards. Thereafter, she trembled with joy and said, ”There’s news. Because Nine Mo City was slaughtered, Star King Mountain's Star Lord Mo Wuji was triggered. In his rage, Star Lord Mo killed Hoover and Cang Jue, and he should currently be pursuing Broken Sect's Zhu Qu…”
”Is this news true?” Almost all the elders stood up, staring excitedly at the flying sword in Yan Huimeng's hand.
Yan Huimeng forcefully suppressed the ecstatic emotions in her heart, nodding solemnly, ”That's right. This news had just arrived from our Tian Chi Manor's disciple who was at Piercing Wind City. It's definitely reliable. Star Lord Mo threw out Hoover's corpse. And his battle with Cang Jue was observed by almost everyone in Piercing Wind City. It definitely can't be false.”
”So strong!” Everyone in the hall muttered in shock. Cang Jue, as a Class 9 space beast, was equivalent to an Earthly Immortal Expert. If Mo Wuji could actually kill it, exactly how strong was he?
After that initial rush of emotions, Yan Huimeng had already calmed down. She slowed down her speech and continued, ”Piercing Wind City was in grave peril. Cang Jue had already destroyed Piercing Wind City's defensive array. Piercing Wind City's Castellan 苏俞 and Star King Mountain's Hall Master Yan Ze had already prepared themselves to fight to the death. That's when Star Lord Mo arrived. Thereafter, in front of everyone, Star Lord Mo engaged in a huge battle with the Single-Horned Wolf King. Finally, he used a lightning sword to kill the Single-Horned Wolf King, Cang Jue…”
Because of the reverberating shock and glee, the entire hall turned quiet. Almost everyone was celebrating, celebrating the fact what Zhen Xing's Star King Mountain had such a strong Star Lord. Otherwise, not just their Tian Chi Manor, but the entire Zhen Xing would be unable to escape this calamity.
Chen Yuping was the first to regain her countenance, speaking emotionally, ”Manor Lord, in your previous visits, did you manage to meet this Star Lord Mo?”
Everyone understood the meaning behind Elder Chen Yuping's words: Tian Chi Manor must definitely form good relations with Star King Mountain's Star Lord Mo.
Yan Huimeng shifted her gaze to Zhuang Xiyue and after taking in a deep breath, she suddenly stood up and said, ”I want to make a trip to Star King Mountain.”
Previously, she had already said that she did not intend to make any more visits to Star King Mountain. After all, Tian Chi Manor still had its face. If they weren't granted an audience with the Star Lord during their visits, how could Tian Chi Manor retain its face? However, Mo Wuji was brutally strong. He was even able to kill a Class 9 space beast. He was terrifyingly strong. Facing this sort of expert, what good would they get from maintaining other pride?
”I agree that Manor Lord continues to visit Star King Mountain, till we meet Star Lord Mo.” Chen Yuping was the first to agree.
At this instant, a maidservant hurriedly entered the grand hall. As all eyes turned towards this maidservant, she bowed and said, ”Star King Mountain’s Star Lord Mo has come to visit.”
”Ah!”
”What!”
…
Everyone was still ruminating over how they could pull their ties with Star Lord Mo Wuji closer; they were even contemplating whether the marriage between the Star Lord and Tian Chi Manor would even be successful. And then, the Star Lord suddenly pays a visit, what kind of coincidence was this? Would this be the start to Tian Chi Manor’s rise to power?
”Hurry, hurry, invite the Star Lord…”
Just when Yan Huimeng finished, she continued, ”Wait, I will welcome him personally.”
No one thought that there was any problem with Yan Huimeng’s words. Now that Star Lord Mo, the slayer of Cang Jue, had paid a visit, they had to treat it with utmost importance. Naturally, Tian Chi Manor’s Manor Lord Zhuang had to personally welcome him. Not only the Manor Lord, even they as elders and protectors all had to welcome Star Lord Mo.
”Xiyue, follow beside me.” After Yan Huimeng walked two steps, she suddenly remembered of her disciple Zhuang Xiyue. She cried out urgently.
Zhuang Xiyue’s face was blushed, her heart was also racing. Even though she always listened to her master, she had only heard of Star Lord Mo’s illustrious name and had never met him before.
Mortal Board Rank 1, Earth Board Rank 1, Universal Board Rank 2. Offended the Yan Clan and Xia Clan; Offended Star King Mountain’s Hall Master Wu Xiang; He even incurred the pursuit of all Zhen Xing cultivaotrs. But now, he was perfectly fine. He was even the Star Lord of Star King Mountain.
If he viewed her with favour, this Star Lord Mo was very likely to be the man she would spend her life with.
Even though she didn’t have a choice, Zhuang Xiyue still hoped that her man could be a little handsome, and a little capable. Mo Wuji was able to become the Star Lord at such a young age, and was even at the front of all the grand boards. He was definitely a capable man. It was just that she didn’t know what he looked like. As she thought of this, Zhuang Xiyue’s face steamed, her heartbeat also started to become a little erratic. No young girl would wish to sleep every night with some ugly dude, much less Zhen Mo Continent’s number one beauty, Zhuang Xiyue.
…
Mo Wuji stood outside Tian Chi Manor with his hands behind his back, admiring the Tian Chi River which was shrouded in mist. He secretly praised Tian Chi Manor for picking such a great place. This place was simply a utopia, not only was it suitable for living, it was also suitable for cultivation.
[1] Tian Chi, in literal translations, means Heavenly Pool. This pool is probably referring to this huge lake.
