Another half a month passed by.
During this half a month, Mo Tiange didn't go out. She just quietly cultivated in the Virtual Sky World and refined her magic weapons.
The cultivators from Tianyan Sect didn't come again, and Ayin also didn't disturb her.
This made her sigh of relief, but at the same time, she felt a bit worried.
Was that person Nie Wushang?
Did Master Song Feng come to Yunzhong with her?
What happened between her and Tianyan Sect?
She really wanted to know about these things, but it was inconvenient to ask in the current situation, so she could only suppress her curiosity and continue to refine her magic weapons.
While she was concentrating on refining, she suddenly heard Ayin's anxious voice. "Fairy, Fairy!"
Mo Tiange opened her eyes, stopped breathing, put away her magic weapons, and came out of the Virtual Sky World. "What's the matter?"
It was dark outside, so Ayin didn't dare to enter the house. She reported in the courtyard, "Fairy, someone wants to see you."
Mo Tiange focused her mind and sensed there were other cultivators in the small courtyard.
An early stage Core Formation cultivator and two Foundation Building cultivators.
After thinking for a while, she removed the restriction and stepped out of the house.
The Core Formation cultivator waiting in the courtyard was unexpectedly Madam Chisu.
Upon seeing her coming out, Madam Chisu smiled and bowed to greet her. "Fellow Daoist Qingwei, I'm here to disturb you again."
Mo Tiange was a bit surprised, but she calmly returned the greeting and asked, "Fellow Daoist, is there something important for you to visit so late at night?"
Madam Chisu frowned and forced a smile. "There's indeed something.
May I ask if Fellow Daoist Qingwei knows the female cultivator who lives nearby? "
The "fairy" who lived in another small courtyard Shopkeeper Dong mentioned?
Mo Tiange shook her head. "To be honest, Fellow Daoist Chisu, I haven't met any cultivators since I came to North Pole Island, and I haven't left the house for the past half a month."
"Really?"
The expression on Madam Chisu's face was very strange. She heaved a sigh of relief, but at the same time, she looked even more worried. She thought for a while and asked again, "Then these past few days, did Fellow Daoist's divine sense discover any traces of other cultivators?"
This question made Mo Tiange raise her eyebrows. "Fellow Daoist Chisu, you should know that cultivators keep their distance from each other.
Since it's someone else's residence over there, of course, I won't use my Divine Sense to investigate. "
This was an unwritten rule between cultivators. Cultivators had a very strong sense of self-protection. A place like a cave residence was absolutely not allowed to be invaded by outsiders. If others used their Divine Sense to investigate, they would most likely be regarded as a person with ulterior motives.
Realizing that her question was somewhat inappropriate, Madam Chisu was startled for a moment before she revealed a smile and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, my words were inappropriate.
To tell you the truth, we've been investigating for half a month and have already found out the identity of the thief. It just so happens that he lives in the courtyard closest to you. But when we arrived, we couldn't find him.
I remembered that Fellow Daoist Qingwei happened to be nearby, so I came to ask. "
Mo Tiange was dumbfounded. "Such a coincidence?"
"Isn't that so? When I first heard the news, I also didn't dare to believe it!" Madam Chisu's gaze was fixed on her. Although she had a smile on her face, her expression was somewhat nervous.
Mo Tiange smiled bitterly in her heart.
Perhaps this Madam Chisu was worried that she was also an accomplice.
That person stole something from Tianyan Sect, and she just happened to go to Jade Qilin Pavilion. Furthermore, her figure and accent were similar.
After she clarified the matter, it turned out that that person also happened to live near her.
With so many coincidences, how could she not suspect her?
Thinking up to this point, Mo Tiange sighed. "Fellow Daoist Chisu, was that person also a Core Formation cultivator?"
Madam Chisu nodded. "Yes."
Her gaze shifted and she said, "Because the stolen item is precious, our sect's Nascent Soul seniors have already set out. Presumably, they'll be able to retrieve it in a few days."
Upon hearing her answer, Mo Tiange said faintly, "Then I wish your sect will be able to successfully retrieve the lost item."
After saying that, the two of them were somewhat speechless. After standing for a while, Madam Chisu finally smiled and took her leave. "Since Fellow Daoist didn't see it, I'll take my leave.
I'm deeply sorry for disturbing you so late at night. "
Mo Tiange showed a faint smile. "No problem. Fellow Daoist Chisu doesn't need to be polite. I still have something to do, so I won't be seeing you off."
Madam Chisu nodded with a smile then turned around and left with the two Foundation Building disciples.
When they were far away and there were no longer any traces of cultivators around, Mo Tiange turned around and said, "Ayin, everything's fine now. You can go back and rest."
"Yes," Ayin answered. She watched as Mo Tiange turned around and entered the Cultivation Room, then she also returned to her small side room.
Once she entered the Cultivation Room, Mo Tiange immediately started to cast the restriction. Her gaze shifted to a corner. "Come out!"
Shortly after she spoke, a shadow slowly appeared in the corner. That shadow became clearer and clearer until finally, a person appeared.
The person was dressed in black and had a delicate and pretty face. It was Nie Wushang.
"You can actually find me?" Nie Wushang's voice was low and hoarse.
Mo Tiange smiled. She sat down at the table and poured two cups of tea. "It's been many years since we last met.
Fellow Daoist Nie, we're really fated. "
Nie Wushang frowned but didn't answer. Instead, she walked towards Mo Tiange and sat across from her. "How did you find me?"
Mo Tiange stared at her. Her gaze swept around the room and she said with a faint smile, "Not only did you enter this courtyard, but you also entered my room.
I laid my own unique formation in this room. Although your concealment technique is brilliant, I can still find you. "
"I see." Nie Wushang nodded then picked up the teacup and took a sip.
Mo Tiange's gaze flickered. She didn't quite understand what Nie Wushang meant.
Hiding in her room without telling her seemed to be an offense.
But Nie Wushang still dared to come in even though she knew there was a restriction here and drank the tea she poured without any wariness … This Nie Wushang seemed to be certain that she wouldn't harm her?
"Fellow Daoist Nie," Mo Tiange said after a long time, "How did you come to Yunzhong?
And why did you steal Tianyan Sect's things? "
Nie Wushang looked up and slightly raised the corners of her mouth. She said, "In fact, you want to ask whether my master also came or not, right?"
Mo Tiange paused for a moment then smiled. "Do you still need to ask?
You stole Tianyan Sect's things and hid in my place, so your master definitely isn't with you. "
Nie Wushang was stunned. She lowered her eyes and held the teacup without saying anything.
Mo Tiange felt the situation before her was a bit strange.
She and Nie Wushang's respective masters had great enmity. There was kindness and enmity between them, but the two of them met in Yunzhong, thousands of miles away from the Celestial Pole.
If that was all, it wouldn't be a big deal. But now, Nie Wushang stole something from the number one sect on North Pole Island and hid in her place, seemingly without any wariness … Why didn't she remember her relationship with Nie Wushang being so good?
In any case, Nie Wushang was well aware that she was inside the formation and restriction, but she was still so calm, so she probably didn't have any hostility.
Just as Mo Tiange was thinking, Nie Wushang stopped contemplating, looked up, and asked, "Fellow Daoist Mo, how did you come to Yunzhong?
Where's your husband?
Did he come with you? "
Mo Tiange was stunned. "You know … I have a Daoist partner?"
Nie Wushang's lips curved into a smile. "Fellow Daoist Mo, don't underestimate the fame of the two of you.
Your husband formed his Nascent Soul in his early 200 years and is in the limelight in the Celestial Pole.
As for you, you're also a genius who formed your Gold Core before turning 100 years old.
The news of the two of you cultivating as Dual Cultivators has pretty much spread in the Celestial Pole. As long as I pay attention, I'll naturally find out. "
"…" Mo Tiange really didn't expect it. Forget about Qin Xi, at least she didn't think she was that famous.
However, Nie Wushang mentioning this made her notice another thing. "Fellow Daoist Nie, my Dual Cultivation only took three to five years. Did you also arrive in Yunzhong recently?"
"En." Nie Wushang nodded and cast a sidelong glance at her. "Fellow Daoist Mo, I was the one who asked you just now."
Mo Tiange smiled. "In the beginning, I was the one who asked Fellow Daoist Nie how you came to Yunzhong, but Fellow Daoist Nie also didn't answer."
"…"
The two of them stared at each other. After staring for a while, they both felt a bit bored, so they withdrew their gazes and sighed.
Their sighs were of the same mind. The two of them were stunned. They looked at each other and couldn't help but smile.
With such a smile, the two of them imperceptibly became a bit closer. Those messy grievances were also temporarily thrown to the back of their minds.
"Alright, I'll answer first," Nie Wushang said.
Nie Wushang said, "I got a treasure from my master. With the help of this treasure, I was able to safely cross the South Sea.
But I went in the wrong direction and drifted to North Pole Island. "She then looked at Mo Tiange." What about you?
How did you come to Yunzhong?
I don't see your husband. Don't tell me you're also alone? "
Mo Tiange answered, "Yes, I'm indeed alone.
Originally, I just broke through to the middle stage of the Core Formation realm, so I went out to travel. Later, I accidentally found a path, so I came to Yunzhong. "
The two of them spoke vaguely. After all, their relationship was complicated, so some things didn't need to be explained too clearly.
After giving a brief explanation, Mo Tiange asked, "Fellow Daoist Nie, you stole something from Tianyan Sect and then hid in my place. What's the meaning of this?"
"What? You don't want me to hide?" Nie Wushang asked instead of answering.
Mo Tiange was dumbfounded. She then shook her head. "I don't want to meddle in your business, nor do I want to catch thieves for Tianyan Sect. Where you are has nothing to do with me."
Upon hearing that, Nie Wushang smiled. "That being the case, why do you have to ask?"
Mo Tiange frowned and said, "Fellow Daoist Nie, you're now in my cultivation room. If I don't ask, how can I continue living here?"
Nie Wushang thought for a moment then nodded. "What you said makes sense.
Alright, let's talk about our relationship first. "
"…" Mo Tiange always felt that the Nie Wushang in front of her was different from the one she met on Demonic Mountain, and even more different from the one she met at the sect more than sixty years ago.
Although the previous Nie Wushang had a delicate appearance, she looked vicious and had a strange character. However, the one in front of her was obviously a lot more relaxed, and her whole body was full of a kind of lively aura.
Perhaps it was because she left Master Song Feng?
She couldn't help but have this thought.
This wasn't impossible. When they met on Demonic Mountain, Nie Wushang's behavior was very clear. Master Song Feng beat and scolded this disciple at every turn, and Nie Wushang also revealed feelings of fear and hatred towards her master.
Thinking up to this point, Mo Tiange's mind was moved.
Nie Wushang just said she obtained a treasure from Master Song Feng, which was why she could leave the Celestial Pole and come to Yunzhong.
This sounded a bit strange. To be able to cross the South Sea by relying on this treasure, this treasure must have great magical powers. Based on Master Song Feng's attitude towards her, it was impossible for him to give her such a magic treasure, right?
Was it possible that she stole Master Song Feng's magic treasure and secretly escaped?
