“Take a closer look.” Seeing Mo Wuji’s blank expression, Yin Shanyin pointed at the mottled broken sword and said again.
Mo Wuji didn’t know what exactly Yin Shanyin meant as he reached out and picked up the broken sword, looking at it for a while before pointing in ‘surprise’ at the two blurred words and asking, “Senior Sister Yin, could this be the other half of the Falling Curve Sword from the Hanging Sword Cliff? By bringing this half of the sword, is Senior Sister Yin giving it to me so that I can unite this Falling Curve Sword?”
Yin Shanyin said with an embarrassed face, “This is indeed the other half of the Falling Curve Sword on the Hanging Sword Cliff, because I obtained the Falling Curve Sword Technique, so I wanted this Falling Curve Sword. The Sovereign removed this half of the Falling Curve Sword and gave it to me, it’s just that there’s only half of it here, and the other half I want to shamelessly ask Senior Brother to ask for it.”
Yin Shanyin was indeed a little less than kind, compared to Mo Wuji’s concessions and help to her, her help to Mo Wuji was nothing at all.
Firstly her life was saved by Mo Wuji, secondly the distribution plan that was originally agreed upon, she broke it herself and took absolute advantage of it. Thirdly the other half of the broken sword, was originally something that she didn’t want to give up to Mo Wuji, and now she was coming back to ask for it, it was really out of character.
Mo Wuji did not reply immediately, he was very strange in his heart. It was reasonable to say that Yin Shanyin had obtained the Falling Curve Sword Technique at the Traceless Sword Mountain, and if she wanted the Falling Curve Sword, she would have asked him for it at that time, instead of waiting until now. Now that Yin Shanyin had only thought of asking for the sword more than a month after coming out of the Traceless Sword Mountain, there was only one explanation. It was that Yin Shanyin knew something in the Falling Curve Sword Technique Inheritance Crystal Ball, perhaps it was the secret of the Falling Curve Sword.
There was one thing that Mo Wuji was relieved about, and that was that Yin Shanyin was not here to pursue her.
“Senior Brother Mo, I know this is a bit excessive. In order to compensate Senior Brother Mo, I’m willing to take out three Third Grade Human Spirit Pill formulas, and at the same time, I’m willing to take out some of the spirit herbs used to refine the Third Grade Human Spirit Pills. These will be used as resources for Senior Brother Mo to advance to Third Grade Human Spirit Pill Master, how about it?” Yin Shanyin said sincerely.
Mo Wuji thought to himself, the half broken sword of the Falling Curve Sword was of no use to him, the real good thing inside the Falling Curve Sword was the Doing Star Shift, which had become his at the moment, so that meant that Yin Shanyin’s conditions were completely acceptable to him. If the Bucket Turning Star Shift had not been taken out by him, then Yin Shanyin’s desire to use this bit of spirit grass to exchange for the Falling Curve Sword would be a daydream.
It looked like Yin Shanyin knew that the Falling Curve Sword had a secret, but she didn’t know that the secret was in the Falling Curve Sword’s break. Yin Shanyin’s excuse for wanting to learn the Falling Curve Sword Technique was naturally because she didn’t want him to know that the Falling Curve Sword had an oddity. This was human nature, and if he were in his place, he wouldn’t have said anything.
“Since Senior Sister Yin has taken a fancy to the Falling Curve Sword, then of course you can take it. I still have one more thing to ask Senior Sister Yin for ……”
“Senior Brother Mo please speak.” Hearing that Mo Wuji was willing to let go of the Drop Curve Sword, Yin Shanyin was overjoyed in her heart.
“Senior Sister Yin, I have a family member who, due to some reasons, has a disorganised spiritual root, a broken spirit complex, and a total loss of memory. I wonder if Senior Sister Yin can help her to see if she can be cured?” Mo Wuji had long planned to ask Yin Shanyin to help take a look at Smokey after he met her.
According to Shen Ren, Yin Shanyin shouldn’t be able to cure Smokey either, but Yin Shanyin’s division wasn’t simple, so there might be a way.
“Where is the person?” Yin Shanyin followed and asked.
“Smokey, come here for a moment.” Mo Wuji hurriedly stood up and called out to the door.
Smokey, who was sitting alone by the lake, heard Mo Wuji’s call and immediately stood up and walked into the house.
Yin Shanyin also stood up as she walked over to Smokey’s side and reached out to grab Smokey’s wrist. In just a few breaths, Yin Shanyin’s face changed, ”She was caused by someone forcibly marrying her spirit? Who is it, and this kind of malicious tactics?”
Mo Wuji shook his head and didn’t explain, he only asked, “Does Senior Sister Yin have a solution?”
It wasn’t that he didn’t trust Yin Shanyin, even if he did, Yin Shanyin didn’t have the means to help him take revenge. In case the trail of him and Smokey was leaked, it would be a dead end. Besides, this kind of revenge, he had to take it himself.
Yin Shanyin pondered for a while before she said, “Maybe my master ancestor has a way ……”
She then shook her head, even her master may not be able to find her master ancestor anymore, let alone her wanting to see her master ancestor now.
Mo Wuji also fell silent, she had heard Yin Shanyin talk about her Master Ancestor, and it was a foggy situation.
“Right, there’s another person who can definitely save her ……”
“Who is it?” Mo Wuji didn’t wait for Yin Shanyin to finish her sentence before he eagerly interrupted Yin Shanyin with a voice.
“Granny Linglong of the Questioning Heaven Academy Palace’s Dan Tower, some people say that she’s infinitely close to being a Heavenly Pill Master, but my master once told me that Granny Linglong is actually the only Heavenly Pill Master in the Lost Continent.” Yin Shanyin said with a joyful expression on her face, clearly she was trying to help Mo Wuji.
“Lost Continent?” Mo Wuji had heard of the Heavenly Academy, didn’t he say that the Seven Swords Peak’s Ju Seven Swords went to the Heavenly Academy. This Lost Continent, he really hadn’t heard of it.
Yin Shanyin explained, ”Actually, the Lost Continent is the region of the five empires, and outside of the five empires, other people call the continent that we are in as the Lost Continent. This is because the highest continent we are in is only cultivated to the first heavenly realm, and it is basically impossible to advance any further. The meaning of lost continent is also the continent that was lost and abandoned by the Heavenly Dao. That’s why for countless years, countless powerful people have wanted to cross the Five Elements Desolate Domain to leave the Lost Continent in search of a higher level.”
Mo Wuji clenched his fists, he must find Granny Linglong to help out. With his progress, there was no telling when he would want to reach the point where he could cure Smokey. What if he still couldn’t cure Smokey in ten years’ time?
Yin Shanyin seemed to have read Mo Wuji’s thoughts and hesitated for a moment, ”Senior Brother Mo, even though Granny Linglong can cure her, she is almost unavailable to help, even for those powerful people in the Heavenly Enquiring Academy Palace, if they wanted to ask Granny Linglong to help with alchemy, it would be a thousand times more difficult to do so. Moreover, if I’m not mistaken, Smokey should only have less than three years of life left.”
“What?” Mo Wuji suddenly stood up, although he was a Second Grade Human Pill Master, he was not able to tell Smokey’s lifespan.
If Yin Shanyin had not lied to him, then Shen Ren had lied to him in the first place. Shen Ren might have wanted to comfort him and tell him not to be too anxious, but Shen Ren’s words had almost harmed Smokey. If he had known that Smokey only had a lifespan of three years, would he have been able to cultivate so peacefully and gradually?
“It is true that she only has a lifespan of three years, let me take a step back, even if you go to the Heavenly Academy now, let alone whether you can see Granny Linglong or not, I guess ninety-nine per cent of the possibilities are that you won’t be able to see her. Even if you do meet her, it will be for nothing. The fact of the matter is that with your speed right now, setting off from the Traceless Sword Sect and arriving at the Heavenly Enquiring School Palace is estimated to take nearly two to three years, and that’s not even counting the time that you’ll be delayed in the middle of the journey.”
Yin Shanyin’s words were like a pot of cold water poured onto Mo Wuji’s head. Mo Wuji’s hands and feet went cold, completely at a loss as to what he should do.
No one could appreciate the position that Smokey occupied in his heart, it could even be said to be his spiritual support in this strange world. After being assassinated by Xia Ruoyin, Smokey was willing to exchange her own life for his, valuing him, the young master, more than anything else, allowing him to once again feel that there was truly that kind of life guarding between people. Before it was because he hadn’t met it, now that he had met it, he realised how hard it was?
“Actually, there is another way, and that is when the Five Elements Desolate Domain Dan Ratio opens in half a year. Every time the Five Elemental Desolate Domain opens, Granny Linglong will definitely go and collect spirit herbs herself. You may be able to meet Granny Linglong once, but I’m afraid that begging her to save your life will not work.” Seeing Mo Wuji freeze up, Yin Shanyin once again spoke out to comfort him.
Mo Wuji suddenly pulled out two rolls of thin silk and handed them to Yin Shanyin, walked over to Yin Shanyin and bowed, “Senior Sister Yin, these two thin silks are the secrets in the Falling Curve Sword, I would like to beg Senior Sister Yin for one thing.”
