Chapter 779 Yu Ying and Yu Ruoling
Chapter 779 Yu Ying and Yu Ruoling
Two days later, early in the morning.
Zhao Mu arrived at the ultra-long-distance teleportation array at the indicated time. In the past two days, he had opened the furnace three times and succeeded each time. However, due to the fact that it was his first time refining pills and that these three types of pills were somewhat special, the success rate was not high. Fortunately, the quality of the pills met the standards.
Soon, his number was called.
Only one hundred people can be teleported at a time.
After standing still, the teleportation array quickly activated, a flash of light appeared, and Zhao Mu boarded the ultra-long-distance teleportation array.
The teleportation array doesn't arrive instantly; it also takes some time.
Lincang is very far from Tianjing Mountain. If we were to travel by road, it would probably take one or two years to get there. But the teleportation array is different. It only took about a day to reach Jingshan City at the foot of Tianjing Mountain.
Wow~
With a flash of light, Zhao Mu appeared on the teleportation array along with the crowd.
After exiting the teleportation array, he immediately left the teleportation hall.
The area outside was bustling with noise and activity.
Jingshan City is far smaller than Lincang.
so.....
Zhao Mu was incredibly unlucky; he couldn't book a room at an inn, which was ten times more absurd than his previous life's long holiday trip.
However, as a cultivator, Zhao Mu didn't really care about having a place to stay, since the Langhuan Secret Realm would be opening in a few days anyway.
However, to his surprise, while walking down the street, a tall woman in a white, fitted silk dress walked straight toward him.
"Young master, my young lady requests a chat with you."
The woman bowed respectfully and sincerely, extending the invitation.
???
Zhao Mu was a little confused and asked, "I wonder who your young lady is...?"
"You'll know once you go, young master!"
The woman didn't say much, but simply gestured for them to proceed.
"Trouble!"
Zhao Mu did not refuse and followed the woman. He was certain that she had no ill intentions, because he had no enemies in the Cangwu Realm. The only two people he had any dealings with were his aunt and the woman in white.
However... Miss...
It probably wasn't the woman in white, since she was all alone that day.
Could it be that my aunt's wicked sense of humor has suddenly come out?
But that doesn't make sense. To prevent her identity from being exposed, her aunt had already distanced herself from him beforehand, so she shouldn't be showing up again at this time.
With a sense of doubt, Zhao Mu was led into a secluded yet elegant courtyard.
The courtyard wasn't large, but it was very quiet.
"Miss, the young master has arrived."
Pushing open the door and following behind the woman, Zhao Mu finally met the young lady she had mentioned, and it turned out to be the white-clad woman from that day.
"It's you?"
"I just happened to see you leaving Wangyue Tower looking disappointed. I guessed you couldn't get a room, so I invited you over. There's a room in the east wing of my courtyard that's currently empty. If you don't mind, you can stay here."
The woman in white spoke with grace and poise, then added, "Oh, right, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Yu Ying. May I ask your name, sir?"
"Zhao Mu."
In this Cangwu Realm, everyone with the surname Yu comes from the Yu family. He never expected to be so lucky as to encounter someone from the Yu family so easily.
"Brother Zhao, please sit down and try this Diming Maojian tea."
Yu Ying gestured for Zhao Mu to sit down, and Zhao Mu accepted without ceremony, taking a sip of tea and grinning, "Sorry, I don't know how to appreciate tea, but it tastes pretty good, quite fragrant."
"Giggle~"
Yu Ying immediately covered her mouth and chuckled, clearly amused by Zhao Mu's words. "Brother Zhao's frankness and straightforwardness are truly...rare, but quite good."
"The Azure Yuan Magnet has been found?"
"Ah."
As Yu Ying nodded, she cupped her hands to Zhao Mu and said, "It is all thanks to Brother Zhao for parting with the stone skin. Otherwise, I would not have been able to find the Qingyuan Magnetic so easily. What I said before still stands. I can help Brother Zhao within my ability in the Langhuan Secret Realm."
"No need. The reward you should give already far exceeds the value of that bluish-brown stone skin itself."
Zhao Mu shook his head slightly. He wasn't a greedy person, and Yu Ying had really done a lot for him. "Besides, no one can help me with what I want."
He wasn't wrong; they won the championship.
Even Yu Ying himself was considered his rival, so how could he possibly help him?
"Could it be that Brother Zhao intends to win the championship of this trial?"
Zhao Mu smiled but did not respond, nor did he deny it, because it was easy to guess.
"Well....."
Yu Ying sized Zhao Mu up and down for a moment, then said calmly, "Brother Zhao, I can only say that the chances are slim. Cang Ming of the Cang family is no ordinary person. I don't mean to discourage you, but..."
"I know."
Zhao Mu smiled and nodded, shrugging his shoulders. "Cang Ming of the Cang family and Yu Ruoling of the Yu family can be said to be two insurmountable mountains. In addition, Yin Yu of the Yin family is also extraordinary."
puff~
Just then, one of the maids who had been serving nearby suddenly burst into laughter, her voice as melodious as a silver bell.
"Why are you laughing, young lady?"
It was quite strange for a lowly maid to laugh at her guests in front of her master.
"Young Master Zhao, don't you know that the woman sitting in front of you is my young lady?"
uh~
This was a bit of a convoluted question, but Zhao Mu wasn't stupid. He immediately understood and looked at Yu Ying in front of him with some doubt, asking, "Are you Yu Ruoling? Aren't you called Yu Ying?"
"It seems that Young Master Zhao has misunderstood."
Yu Ying chuckled and explained, "Yu Ying is my real name, and Ruoling is my nickname. When my brother and I went out to train together, he habitually called me by my nickname..."
Got it!
I understand now. This is a story of a nickname possessing the body of a person with a prominent name.
However, Zhao Mu was quite surprised that he had encountered Yu Ruoling.
and many more.....
He suddenly remembered something and asked, "I wonder if Fellow Daoist Yu plans to use that Azure Magnetic...?"
"Used for setting up formations."
Yu Ying did not hide anything and said with a smile, "Brother Zhao, you can rest assured that I will not use this formation on you."
"That's daring."
Zhao Mu made no attempt to hide his smile.
The Qingyuan Magnetic Material that Yu Ying could be so persistent in obtaining, sticking to him like a leech, must be no ordinary object. Zhao Mu estimated that with his own strength, he would probably have a hard time resisting it.
Even if there is a breakthrough in the Langhuan Secret Realm later, it will still be a huge problem.
Since Yu Ying is willing to give up using him, that's great.
What's the point of saving face? Winning is not honorable.
What nonsense! As long as we can win the championship, enter Tibet, and successfully obtain the Taixu Refining Spirit, everything else is irrelevant.
"Miss."
Just then, the maid who had led Zhao Mu over suddenly came in from outside the door.
"What's the matter?"
"Cang Ming has sent an invitation, inviting you to a small gathering at Green Water Pavilion, Miss."
Upon hearing this, Yu Ying turned to Zhao Mu and asked, "Brother Zhao, would you be interested in going together? Cang Ming has most likely invited the strongest and most famous participants in the Langhuan Secret Realm. If you want to win, you might as well go and meet your rivals."
"it is good!"
Zhao Mu grinned.
