The Piaomiao Immortal Pond could be said to have been extremely hospitable to Ye Mo’s arrival, with Immortal Emperor Mu Li personally accompanying him and Saint Maiden Seeking Clouds also coming forward to accompany Tang Beiwei to speak. As for the immortal fruits and immortal wine brought out, they were even top quality goods.
Although Ye Mo had many good things, he was not good at getting food. The top quality cakes, immortal fruits and immortal brews from the Piaomiao Immortal Pond made Tang Beiwei and Wu Ying smile as they ate.
When Ye Mo saw that Tang Beiwei and Wu Ying were happy, he was thinking about how he could visit the Ethereal Spring without the rest of the Piaomiao Immortal Pond knowing about it when he heard Immortal Emperor Mu Li say, “Sovereign Ye, there is an old friend of yours under my sect who has some matters to find you and wants to talk to you alone, I wonder if Sovereign Ye is free?”
An old friend of his? When did he have an old friend in the Piaomiao Immortal Pond? If we were to talk about old friends, apart from the Cloud Seeking Saintess in front of him who was familiar with him, who else was there?
“Of course I’m free.” Ye Mo said speechlessly, wasn’t it obvious? He was eating top quality immortal fruits and drinking immortal wine, and then said he was not free?
What could there be to find himself? At best, it was just to help refine a few pills.
“Ji Yun, you take Patriarch Ye to go, while I and Foraging Cloud stay here with Beiwei for a while.” An Immortal Emperor spoke out to accompany Tang Beiwei, a Void Immortal, what else could Ye Mo say, he could only follow Ji Yun and leave this place of hospitality.
……
Ye Mo followed Immortal Ji Yun around several corridors before he arrived at a water pavilion. The water pavilion was surrounded by water on one side, and the other three sides were covered with immortal flowers vying for attention. The faint immortal spirit mist was in the middle of this water, giving people a refreshing and ethereal feeling. After Ji Yun sent Ye Mo, he immediately turned around and retreated.
In the pavilion of this water pavilion, a woman in white was turning her back on Ye Mo’s side. In her hand, she was also holding a green horizontal flute. This white-clothed fairy woman Ye Mo really knew. It was the one who had a good relationship with Thistle. The Saintess Ning’e who brought him into the Misty Immortal Pond to use the Ethereal Spring, only at this time she was no longer a Saintess.
When Ye Mo saw this green-coloured horizontal flute, he suddenly recalled when he first met Jing Yingli inside the Hall of Meteoric Truth. Jing Yingli was also using a jade flute, except that Jing Yingli was using a white jade flute.
Ye Mo didn’t know how Jing Yingli’s flute sounded, but he knew that Jing Yingli’s flute was used as a magic weapon to attack the enemy. And he was sure that this green-coloured flute of Fairy Ning’e was not used to attack the enemy, but a musical instrument.
Sensing Ye Mo’s coming, Immortal Ning’e suddenly placed her jade flute to her lips. A delicate and incomparable tune floated out, and the surrounding area was immediately surrounded by this slightly sad flute sound. Even Ye Mo felt a faint sense of sadness.
At the end of the song, Ye Mo actually missed Luo Ying and the others in Mo Yue City, and only after a long time did he sigh slightly and walk towards Ning’e. He didn’t understand what Ning E had asked him to come for. Ning E was indeed an old friend, but in Ye Mo’s opinion, she was not. His friendship with Ning E was not as deep as his friendship with Qiu Yun, so how could he be considered an old friend?
“Patriarch Ye, please sit down.” Ning E had finished her song and stood up to bow slightly to Ye Mo before she said softly.
Ye Mo was not polite either. He walked straight over and sat down.
“Patriarch Ye, things in the world are truly unpredictable. When you and your sister Thistle came to my Piaomiao Immortal Pond together, you still only wanted to go to the Ethereal Spring to cultivate a little. And now you are already a Patriarch who made my Piaomiao Immortal Pond Ancestor personally welcome you, while I am still the same as I was back then.” After waiting for Ye Mo to sit down, Immortal Ning’e said with a sigh, her tone was as sad and incomparable as her flute’s tone, with a faint sense of loss.
Ye Mo didn’t answer, he could feel Immortal Ning’e’s sadness. In terms of qualifications, she was definitely not inferior to others. In terms of status, she had only just come down from the position of Saintess, and even though she had made several mistakes, she had not been punished, so she obviously had some backstage among the sect. However, even the Foraging Cloud Saintess was already an Immortal King, while she was still lingering in the Da Luo Immortal, so obviously this was where her sadness lay.
“Ye Mo, what do you think of Fang Cheng as a person?” Immortal Ning’e suddenly did not continue to address Ye Mo as Patriarch, but instead called him by his first name.
Ye Mo didn’t care either, he wouldn’t give a D*mn about what others called him.
“I’m not very familiar with Fang Cheng, but in terms of opinions, I don’t appreciate him. Even Xiang Changyong, I still feel much better than him.” To be honest, Ye Mo really didn’t see much of that Fang Cheng. He didn’t even compare Qi Beicang to Ji Shu and the others, and directly compared him to the hostile Xiang Changyong.
Fairy Ning’e nodded, “It’s normal for you to look at him unfavourably.” She understood that Ye Mo did not have any good feelings towards Xiang Cheng. Ye Mo’s purpose of comparing Xiang Changyong was also clear to her, that is, in Ye Mo’s eyes, the enemy was all much better than Fang Cheng.
After saying that, she fell silent again. Ye Mo, however, was waiting a little impatiently, he didn’t come here to talk to Ning’e about such boring things. If Fairy Ning’e had nothing more to say, he was not willing to stay here.
Just as he was about to stand up and say goodbye, Fairy Ning’e suddenly asked, “Ye Mo, do you have someone you like?”
A favourite person? The figures of Luo Ying, Light Snow and Jing Wen drifted before Ye Mo’s eyes, and he nodded and said, “Yes, I have someone I like.”
“I also have someone I like.” Immortal Ning’e’s face suddenly showed some joy, “He’s the Fang Cheng I asked you about just now. He’s not a very generous person, he’s even a bit of a villain, but I like him.”
Ye Mo frowned, he had long known that Fairy Ning’e liked Fang Cheng, but just what was the point of talking to him about this? It wasn’t like he had any relationship with Fairy Ning’e, nor was he any kind of friend.
“Actually, I am willing to become your Daoist couple, but I don’t want to lie to you, I will always have Fang Cheng in my heart. If you don’t mind me missing him, I am willing to become your ……”
Before Ning E could finish these words, she was interrupted by Ye Mo, “Wait, Fairy Ning E, what do you mean by that? When did I say that I want to become a daoist couple with you? Where did you hear that?”
Not to mention that the person Ning E liked was Fang Cheng, even if she didn’t like Fang Cheng, Ye Mo didn’t want her to become a dao couple, it was just that things were a bit odd.
Immortal Ning’e suddenly stood up, her face slightly white as she asked, “Didn’t you come to my Piaomiao Immortal Pond to ask for me to become your dao couple?”
Ye Mo rubbed his head speechlessly and said, “Do you see that I look like this kind of free person now? Besides, I have never thought about finding a daoist couple again, even if I were to ……”
Ye Mo didn’t say it later, even if he wanted to find a daoist couple, he wouldn’t find you, Fairy Ning’e, right? He and Ning’e are not at all familiar with each other, this is simply the opposite of the north.
Immortal Ning’e stared blankly at Ye Mo, her face growing somewhat stuck white as the words of Sect Master Chan seemed to be still in her ears.
“Ning’e, that Patriarch Ye is amazingly talented, not only is he a top-tier Formation Patriarch, but also a top-tier Immortal Pill Patriarch. He refused all the invitations from the Great Imperial Sects, but only agreed to my Piaomiao Immortal Pond’s invitation. When I think about it, there is no other reason than yours. Seeking Cloud said that you also brought him here in the first place, but there might be some misunderstandings with you later on, and now those misunderstandings you should go and explain them clearly ……”
“Sect Master, Patriarch Ye has long known that Ning’e has someone she likes ……”
“Alas, that Patriarch Ye is also a proud person, he might have some misunderstandings because of this. No matter what that Patriarch Ye thinks, I will always send a ‘Yi Wang Dan’ to you as long as you do your utmost.”
“Actually ……”
“No need to actually, in the Little Heavenly Domain you gave the one ‘Peng Yue Immortal Fruit’ that you got to Fang Cheng, don’t think that others don’t know about it, that’s why the clan didn’t give you the ‘Yi Wang Dan’. You should also not compare yourself to Seeking Cloud, who traded with Ye Mo, and she also obtained more than one ‘Peng Yue Immortal Fruit’. Today is the day I will put my words here, if Fang Cheng can send you the ‘Yi Wang Dan’, even if I am wrong. This is your only chance to get the ‘Yi Wang Dan’, if you still want to give it up, then don’t blame others.”
“Yes, Sect Master. Ning’e understands ……”
Seeing Fairy Ning’e’s face gradually getting paler and paler, Ye Mo frowned and said, “Fairy Ning’e, are you alright?”
“I’m fine, I’m sorry, Sovereign Ye, I think poorly. I have to go now, be my guest.” Fairy Ning’e stood up again and said after bending down and saluting.
“Wait ……” Ye Mo called out to Immortal Ning’e to stop.
Ning’e stopped but did not turn around. Since she had given the Peng Yue Immortal Fruit to Fang Cheng last time, that meant that she would never be able to get the ‘Yi Wang Dan’ in the sect again.
“Thank you for last time, for bringing me to the Netherworld Spring.” Ye Mo first thanked Fairy Ning’e.
After he finished saying that Fairy Ning’e did not interfere, he could only say once again, “Fairy Ning’e, I would like to ask you one thing, is that jade token that you brought me to Misty Spring last time did you already give it to the Cloud Seeking Sage?”
Fairy Ning’e shook her head and said, “Senior Sister Foraging Cloud took into account my emotions and didn’t take my jade token, she just said that it was temporarily placed here with me.”
Ye Mo’s heart was pleased and he immediately clasped his fist and said, “Fairy Ning’e, I would like to ask you to do me a favour, I don’t know if it’s possible.”
Immortal Ning’e looked back at Ye Mo, then smiled to herself, “There’s nothing you can’t do, take this jade token and use it, and return it to me when you’re done. I’ve already broken the sect rules once, and I don’t care about breaking them a second time.”
Ye Mo didn’t even say anything about the jade token, and Immortal Ning’e had already taken out the jade token for entering the Ethereal Spring.
Ye Mo awkwardly took the jade token and said, “I also have a slightly excessive request, that I don’t quite want to be known by your sect’s ancestors and others when I enter the Ethereal Spring to cultivate.”
Immortal Ning’e shook her head and said, “From here into the Ethereal Spring people can be seen everywhere, it is impossible for you to not be seen.”
Ye Mo hurriedly said, “I have a way to not let anyone see me, I’m just afraid that when people come looking for me, they won’t know where I’ve gone.”
Immortal Ning’e pondered slightly and said, “Patriarch Ye, you follow me.”
