Chapter 693: Vine Mountain Of Safety (2/2)

”Immortal Friend Fei Ling is right. The Vine Mountain of Safety was discovered because Immortal Emperor Ding He used his own strength to destroy the restriction sword talisman of Great Sword Path, which opened up the restriction binding the mountain. Before this, not a single soul survived after entering Sword Prison.” Wei Zidao spoke approvingly.

”Immortal Emperor Ding He?” Mo Wuji never heard of this guy since he came. If he was that prominent, this shouldn’t be the case.

It was unsure whether Shang Hegao was trying to mend his relationship with Mo Wuji, but he still took the initiative to respond, Immortal Emperor Ding he perished from exhaustion after opening the concealment restriction over the Vine Mountain of Safety. We can benefit today thanks to his efforts.”

”Ok, I want this 5km radius of land.” Mo Wuji directly said after understanding the situation.

Staying on the territory of the Immortal Hunters would make him a guest, while he could only establish himself with land to call his own.

Hearing that Mo Wuji had accepted Pang Hong’s land, Wei Zidao and Shang Hegao heaved a sigh of relief. Regardless which of them it was, neither one wanted to fight a large scale battle here. After all, the Vine Mountain of Safety was where they set up camp, and battling here would destroy all of the crisscrossing vines. Who knew whether the mountain would still be able to protect them from the sword qi like before when the vines were gone?

Pang Hong’s face went sullen. Mo Wuji only said that he accepted the land offered to him, but made no mention of the grudge between them. It seemed like this grudge would not disappear just because of this small plot of land. If Pang Hong knew this in advance, he wouldn’t have given it away.

However, he could not take back his words now.

Actually, Wei Zidao also wanted to cosy up with Mo Wuji too, hence after Mo Wuji accepted the land offered by Pang Hong, he quickly added on, ”Since it’s like that, my 5km radius of land near to the sword qi whirlpool is also Sect Head Mo’s.”

This action stunned Shang Hegao. Since Pang Hong and Wei Zidao had given up their land, how could he not follow suit? Even if he didn’t offend Mo Wuji previously, it seemed that not giving up his land now would do so.

When he thought of this, Shang Hegao chuckled, ”Since both of them gave up land of 5km radius each, I, Shang Hegao, naturally can’t fall behind. I’ll give up another 5km of land next to the sword qi whirlpool for Sect Head Mo.”

”If that’s the case, I’ll have to thank all of you.” Mo Wuji bowed respectfully as he thanked everyone.

Pang Hong didn’t want to fight a battle, so he gave up 5km of land. Wei Zidao wanted the Zhe Nature Pill, so he gave up 5km of land too. Lastly, Shang Hegao couldn’t act as though as he didn’t know anything, hence he could only give up 5km of land too. This way, Mo Wuji’s land totaled 15km in radius. To someone that just arrived at the Vine Mountain of Safety, this was an extremely ridiculous thing.

However, Mo Wuji did not let this get to his head. These three guys gave up their land with a goal in each of their minds. His land was also surrounded by theirs too, which meant that he could only escape to the sword qi whirlpool if they decided to join forces against him.

It was absurd to think that Wei Zidao, Pang Hong, and Shang Hegao didn’t reach this conclusion too.

Thankfully, his strength still had some significance here, as the inhabitants of the Vine Mountain of Safety probably saw him as an outsider.

”Everyone, I’m a little tired from my journey, and still have to settle my new land, so I won’t stay much longer.” Mo Wuji did not fear the hidden intentions of those three, because he was a Grade 6 immortal array master, on top of being able to ignore sword qi.

He had advanced to Grade 6 immortal array master after entering the Sword Prison too. While there were some defensive arrays in Devil Hand’s, Righteousness Mountain’s, and Immortal Hunter’s territories, they could not hold a candle to Grade 6 immortal arrays.

”If Sect Head Mo needs any help, please feel free to ask. We, Immortal Hunters, might not be able to bring out our Immortal Emperor, but there are still some capable hands on our side.” Wei Zidao didn’t forget to spite Devil Hand’s Pang Hong with his words.

This was simply because the chance to regain his strength was right in front of him, hence he did not want to create a ruckus at the Vine Mountain of Safety.

”Thank you Immortal Friend Zidao, but I won’t need any help for the moment.” Mo Wuji turned around and left after finishing his sentence. In his heart, he laughed coldly to himself. What Wei Zidao meant was very clear, and to that, he only had one response: you’re thinking too much.

If Wei Zidao well all out against Pang Hong previously, he might have really given a Zhi Nature Pill to Wei Zidao. But now, Wei Zidao could only continue dreaming. The Zhi Nature Pills belonged to him, Mo Wuji, and not Wei Zidao.

As for Wei Zidao’s 5km of land, his four Zhi Nature Pills should have been sufficient compensation. Pang Hong’s land was considered as payment for the threats made towards Han Qingru. Finally, for Shang Hegao, Mo Wuji didn’t care about such a two-faced guy. His 5km of land was taken as atonement for his sins.

To Mo Wuji, his top priority now was to set up shop, and a defensive array, in his land soon.
