Chapter 231: Chapter 212: Meeting That City Lord Qian

“To be frank, Madam, I am a Cultivator. I happened upon Weiwei today and noticed something quite unusual about her eyes, so I came here specifically to discuss it with you.”

Xiao Mo spoke sincerely, not beating around the bush.

’Not another Cultivator…’

Hearing Xiao Mo’s words, Madam Wang turned her face away slightly, biting her lip and muttering to herself.

To be honest, she was quite reluctant to get involved with Cultivators.

But this young gentleman had a refined temperament and handsome features. He didn’t seem like a bad person at all. In fact, he had a gentle, cultured air and spoke with courtesy and respect.

’Besides, if he truly had ill intentions toward Weiwei, he probably would have just taken her by force already. Why would he go to the trouble of coming here to talk?’

“In that case… please come inside, Sir.”

After a moment of deliberation, Madam Wang finally invited Xiao Mo into the courtyard.

“Thank you, Madam. I appreciate your hospitality.” Xiao Mo bowed again and walked steadily into the courtyard.

Ning Wei followed him and was about to close the door, but Xiao Mo stopped her with a smile. “Weiwei, just leave the door open. We wouldn’t want to cause any misunderstandings.”

“Okay.”

Ning Wei didn’t really understand what sort of misunderstanding closing the door might cause, but being so young, she didn’t dwell on it. She just happily ran to the other side of the courtyard to feed the chicks.

When Madam Wang saw this, her respect for the strange young gentleman grew.

“I only have some humble tea to offer. I hope you don’t mind, Sir.”

After showing Xiao Mo to a seat in the courtyard, Madam Wang poured him a cup of tea.

“You’re too kind, Madam.” Xiao Mo accepted the teacup with both hands.

“Just now, you mentioned Weiwei’s eyes…” Madam Wang said, sitting beside him with a concerned expression.

“That’s right.”

Xiao Mo gently set down his teacup.

“What Weiwei possesses is a type of ocular ability known as the ’Yin-Yang Eye.’ She was born with the ability to see spirits and ghosts. If she were to study Yin-Yang related Magic, she would be exceptionally talented.

However, because these eyes are so special, she is also in a certain amount of danger.

Once her cultivation reaches a certain Realm, her eyes can be used as a precious ingredient for Elixirs, which will attract the covetous attention of many Cultivators.

My meeting Weiwei today can be considered a work of fate.

If you and Weiwei are willing, I can take you both to live on Blood Sin Peak of the Wandao Sect.

Weiwei can cultivate on Blood Sin Peak, and you, Madam, can live there long-term without having to worry about your safety.

If you are unwilling, that’s fine as well.

I can also use a secret technique to temporarily seal Weiwei’s Yin-Yang Eye.

This way, the vast majority of Cultivators won’t be able to notice anything unusual about her eyes.

Ultimately, the choice rests with you and Weiwei.”

After listening to Xiao Mo, Madam Wang’s brow furrowed. She lowered her head, the worry in her eyes deepening.

“Is something wrong, Madam? Do you still have doubts about what I just said?” Xiao Mo asked softly.

“No, that’s not it.” Madam Wang shook her head, her gaze shifting to Weiwei feeding the chicks. Her expression was complicated.

She looked back at Xiao Mo and asked seriously, “Did you just say… that Weiwei’s eyes could be used as an elixir ingredient in the future?”

“That is correct.” Xiao Mo nodded.

Madam Wang unconsciously clenched the hem of her skirt, her brow deeply furrowed. “How could this be…” she murmured.

“Earlier, when I was outside the gate, I happened to overhear you speaking with a relative,” Xiao Mo said gently. “Is your worry related to the Wangchuan Sect?”

Madam Wang didn’t answer immediately, only biting her lip again.

Xiao Mo didn’t press her, simply waiting quietly for her response.

After a long moment, Madam Wang finally sighed, her eyes filled with sorrow. “You’ve guessed correctly, Sir. I am indeed worried about the Wangchuan Sect.”

“To be honest with you, Sir, our Fengye City wasn’t originally under the Wangchuan Sect’s jurisdiction. It was an independent city.

The former City Lord was generous and kind, benevolent to all his people.

But just half a month ago, the old City Lord suddenly disappeared. The Wangchuan Sect seized the opportunity to take control of Fengye City, appointing a Cultivator named Qian Zhenhao as the new City Lord.

Unfortunately, for some reason, that City Lord Qian found out about my daughter.

The Wangchuan Sect has sent people here before, wanting my daughter to go to their mountain to cultivate.

But the Wangchuan Sect’s reputation… is not good, to say the least.

Even a simple townswoman like me knows it’s a Demon Sect.”

As she said this, Madam Wang’s lips pressed together more tightly, her voice strained.

“After I politely refused them, I expected retaliation. But surprisingly, they didn’t make things difficult for my daughter and me. Instead, they sent over many valuables.

Even so, I rejected the gifts and stood by my refusal.

So they’ve resorted to sending my brother-in-law to persuade me every so often.

Lately, however, that City Lord Qian seems to be losing his patience.

And after hearing what you just said, Sir, I’m even more worried…

If it’s really as you say, their not taking Weiwei by force and instead trying to coax us into agreeing… I’m afraid their real goal is to get Weiwei to enter the Wangchuan Sect to cultivate…

Once she reaches a certain Realm, I fear Weiwei will be…”

As she spoke, Madam Wang’s face grew pale. She didn’t dare to let her thoughts go any further.

Silence fell between Xiao Mo and Madam Wang once again.

After a long silence, Madam Wang slowly raised her head, her gaze grave and earnest. “Sir…” she asked softly, “will you truly take good care of Weiwei?”

’Rather than stand by and watch my daughter be refined into an Elixir by the people of the Wangchuan Sect, it would be better to take a gamble and entrust Weiwei to this extraordinary gentleman before me.’

“I won’t be the one looking after her personally. I still need to travel the world and won’t be staying in the sect for long. However, my junior sister is quite reliable, and you, Madam, will also be on Blood Sin Peak, so please rest assured.”

Xiao Mo answered frankly. After a slight pause, he added with gravity,

“Furthermore, I must make one thing clear to you, Madam—the Wandao Sect, which I belong to, is also a Demon Sect. However, the various halls and peaks within the sect are relatively independent, each with its own leadership and rules.

But if Weiwei joins the Wandao Sect, we will absolutely not force her to practice any Evil Techniques, nor will we make her commit the evil deeds of the Demon Dao.

Please be at ease on this point, Madam.”

Madam Wang fell silent, her expression complicated. She didn’t know how to respond.

’She never would have imagined that such a graceful and elegant gentleman was actually from a Demon Sect.’

Xiao Mo knew what she was thinking. He smiled and said, “You don’t need to decide immediately, Madam. You can take the next few days to consider it carefully. As for the Wangchuan Sect, I will help you deal with them.”

“But… how could I possibly trouble you like that, Sir…” Madam Wang said, looking abashed.

“It’s no trouble at all.”

Xiao Mo shook his head gently, his gaze shifting toward the City Lord’s Mansion. His tone was calm, yet it carried a chilling authority.

“As it happens, I’d also like to pay a visit to—that City Lord Qian.”
