Mo Wuji followed accordingly to the red spot on the bloodline seeking token as he started shifting his body cautiously. Mo Wuji spent a total of over four hours to travel along 10 metres as he carefully observed every stone that appeared. It was only at this moment that Mo Wuji knew he had been relying completely on good fortune that he wasn’t trapped despite leaving the safe area for some time already.

Within this immortal sealing array, Mo Wuji could not be sure whether there would be no dangers at all or numerous dangers over the same distance of a few metres. In other words, it meant that there were pits everywhere.

After walking in this manner for over 20 days, Mo Wuji finally stopped as there was a willow about six to seven metres ahead of him. A haggard looking girl was tied onto the willow and even though only half her face could be seen, her astonishing beauty could no longer be concealed.

Even though Mo Wuji had no idea how many years she had been tied up for, there was still a form of ethereal beauty from the space between her eyebrows. The haggard looking face didn’t exude any aura of a strong expert but a grand and spectacular aura of intellectual instead.

Mo Wuji’s eyes fell on that willow was emerald green in colour and there was even a few droplets of dew on it.

Mo Wuji had seen too many willows before but this was the first time Mo Wuji saw a willow hanging down mysteriously without its roots and body.

However, he was within the immortal sealing array so Mo Wuji wouldn’t be too surprised to see anything strange here.

The girl was tied onto the hanging willow and she appeared to be unable to move at all. Mo Wuji continued walking a few metres forward and he came to a halt when he was about 4 metres away from the girl’s position.

The girl seemed to have sensed something as she suddenly lifted her head.

Mo Wuji saw a pair of exhausted eyes but despite the weary eyes, they were still shockingly beautiful to Mo Wuji.

Mo Wuji took in a deep breath and even before he could speak, the girl spoke, ”The Gods Tower has been opened again? Where are you from?”

Contrary to what Mo Wuji expected, this beautiful girl’s voice was dry and hoarse while her elemental energy seemed impractical. Mo Wuji guessed that it was because she was trapped in the immortal sealing array for too long.

Mo Wuji believed that this girl was unable to see him because in the immortal sealing array, spiritual will was rendered to be useless. Not only was the spiritual will useless, even the eyes were just as useless. He was able to see her only because of his spiritual eye which could see everything.

”That’s right, the Gods Tower is reopened and I am from Zhen Xing…” Mo Wuji answered calmly as she stared at the gorgeous eyes of this girl.

Indeed, after hearing that Mo Wuji was from Zhen Xing, traces of excitement flashed across the girl’s eyes as she looked longingly and hopefully in front of her.

Mo Wuji heaved a sigh of relief and as he realised that this girl must be Ji Li.

”My father reached Zhen Xing? How is he doing now? Has he recovered from his injuries?” A series of questions were thrown at Mo Wuji.

Decent. This girl was still considered to be decently unselfish who cared more about others. Mo Wuji’s impression of this girl would have dropped to zero if the first question she asked was whether Mo Wuji could rescue her out. Of all virtues, filial piety is the most important and if a person is unable to display this virtue, nothing else mattered.

This woman’s first words were words of concern for her father which made her pretty filial.

”May I ask if your name is Ji Li?” Mo Wuji chose to ask his own question instead of answering the woman’s question.

The woman calmed herself down before saying, ”That’s right. I am Ji Li while my father is called Ji Feiqian. Just before I entered the immortal sealing array, he said that he might head towards Zhen Xing.

Mo Wuji exclaimed, ”Your father had indeed arrived at Zhen Xing and even left a note with his last words to request for people to rescue you…”

When she heard ‘last words’, Mo Wuji noticed that there were already tears flowing down Ji Li’s eyes so he stopped talking.

After a while, Ji Li stopped crying as she looked at the position at which Mo Wuji could be heard from, ”Thank you for bringing the news of my father here…”

Mo Wuji threw out the bloodline seeking token forward, ”This token was the only item left behind by your father and now it shall return to its rightful owner. Even though your father requested for me to rescue you, the pity was that I am simply too weak so I could only bring this message to you. As for saving you, I am afraid I might not be able to do so.

As Ji Li held the bloodline seeking token, she started bawling uncontrollably again as if she could sense her father standing right in front of her.

Her talent was peerless and was doted by her parents since birth. As she grew older, her strength was even more outstanding and had even surpassed her father.

After the war between gods started, she was worried for her father which was why she took the initiative to enter the battlefield to help her father. However, not only was she unable to help her father, she even caused her father to be plotted by someone in the dark while she ended up trapped in the immortal sealing array.

”I am sorry, to have implicated you,” What Mo Wuji didn’t expect was that Ji Li actually apologised to him.
