Thereafter, the promotion ceremony for the various immortal cities took place; Mo Wuji did not even have a single interest about it. Don’t just look at the fact that he represented Water Ying Immortal City in this battle; in reality, he didn’t even know that Water Ying’s Castellan Wen Hou. Helping Wen Lianxi’s Water Ying Immortal City get promoted from low grade to high grade was just a tiny favor.
To Mo Wuji, this was repaying the favor that he owed her; nothing else.
The trivial ceremony ended in various applauses and ceremonial cannons. Thereafter, Mo Wuji immediately left the contestant area. From afar, he waved towards Lin Gu, gesturing for her to first return to the rest house.
Mo Wuji had already left the plaza before the castellans and pill refiners that wanted to talk to him could notice.
There were still three days till he entered Yunxian Immortal Valley. On these three days, he would have to discuss with Lin Gu on how they were going to leave Yong Ying Immortal Domain.
It was true that he was a honorary elder of the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance, but the moment he left Yong Ying Immortal Domain and entered into the void, no one would know who he was.
At that point, people would only care about the peak grade immortal herbs that he had with him, and perhaps his function as a pill refiner.
…
Yue Gui Immortal Resthouse.
Before Mo Wuji could go up, he was stopped by two people.
Of the two, one of them had grinning eyes and a carefree expression, looking as though he didn't have a care about the world. The other hand cold eyes and a proud look.
With Mo Wuji's understanding of the Pill Dao, he only needed a single glance at the two of them to know that they were pill refiners. Not only were they pill refiners, they were quite accomplished ones.
The man with the grinning eyes clasped his fists towards Mo Wuji, ”Pill Master Mo, you're truly a promising talent. Let me first introduce myself, I am Pill Dao Immortal Alliance's Tier 5 Pill King Geng Ji. This is Di Baisheng, he's also a Pill Dao Immortal Alliance Tier 5 Pill King.”
When Geng Ji finished speaking, he stared calmly towards Mo Wuji. The reason why he was the first to find Mo Wuji was because he was sure that Mo Wuji didn't have any special background. The two of them had met Water Ying's Castellan Wen Hou before, they knew that Wen Hou didn't have any powerful backers. When he met Pill Dao Immortal Alliance's Tier 5 Pill Kings like them, he didn't even dare utter any bit of nonsense. Thus, how could a place like Water Ying Immortal City find a pill refiner of great origins?
Mo Wuji had gotten 3rd place in the alchemy competition and had even obtained two placings to Yunxian Immortal Valley. Countless of people had eyes on those two placings, but before those people could do anything, they would definitely investigate on Mo Wuji's origins first.
But by the time those impressive pill refiners find out that Mo Wuji didn't have any outstanding background, he, Geng Ji, and Di Baisheng wouldn't have any chance.
Now that Wen Hou had been promoted to a high grade city castellan and was still engaged in trivial business, they naturally had to take the chance to grab Mo Wuji's Yunxian Immortal Valley placings.
According to Geng Ji's experience, after he reported his identity, Mo Wuji would immediately bow down and call them Senior Geng and Senior Di.
What they never expected was that Mo Wuji would only calmly look at them and speak slowly, ”Oh, is there any special matter?”
Mo Wuji's unexpected actions almost choked Geng Ji. However, he was quick to react and he spoke with a slight baleful aura, ”Pill Master Mo, I'm not going to bear around the bush. Your placings to Yunxian Immortal Valley is of use to us. State your price, we will buy them from you.Take it that Pill Dao Immortal Alliance owes you a favor. In the future, if you need anything, you can come find me, Geng Ji.”
”Is that all?” Mo Wuji's face turned cold.
Actually, Geng Ji did not necessarily need Mo Wuji to hand the two jade tokens over. As long as Mo Wuji gave one over, they would have succeeded.
Now when he heard Mo Wuji's reply and saw Mo Wuji's change in expression, he knew that things wouldn't be so easy. His tone also turned cold, ”Yes, that's all. Feel free to state your price, my Pill Dao Immortal Alliance can afford anything…”
”F*ck off!” Mo Wuji did not even wait for Geng Ji to finish before he shouted angrily.
A mere Pill Dao Immortal Alliance Tier 5 Pill King dared to be so arrogant in front of a honorary elder like him, this fella was clearly courting death.
Di Baisheng, who didn't speak the whole time, also turned cold, ”Mo Xinghe, did you just ask us to f*ck off? Do you know what's the consequences of that?”
If not for Mo Wuji's current reputation which made him afraid of acting against Mo Wuji, Di Baisheng would already have struck out.
This time, Mo Wuji was too lazy to even saw a ring. He retrieved his saber from his ring and swung it towards Di Baisheng.
