Chapter 2605: Waiting For Reply

Su Mo stayed in Jin Wu Mansion and did not leave the courtyard. He had been working on his cultivation.

Although he did not have any Dawn Stones with him, he could slowly absorb the Energy in the area as it would be imprudent of him to do so extensively.

Su Mo found himself progressing slowly through that method, but it was considered fast to his peers.

More than a month had passed in the twinkling of an eye. This day, someone knocked on the door at Su Mo’s courtyard.

Su Mo was sitting cross-legged in the courtyard and when he heard someone knocking on the door, he used his Holy Senses to check on the door. He was elated as he saw that Ling Chang had visited him.

Whoosh!

In a flash, Su Mo came to the door and opened it.

Ling Chang was in a white dress and she looked slender. Although the dress was a little loose-fitting, it could not conceal her voluptuous figure.

Her hair was long and silky. It flowed down to her slim waist and moved gently with the wind.

Ling Chang had a fair and crystal-clear complexion, and it was smooth and tender.

She had not changed. Although she had not met Su Mo for more than 100 years, her looks remained unchanged except that she looked paler. Apparently, she had not recovered from her injuries.

Su Mo and Ling Chang looked at each other, and the world seemed to have come to a standstill. Both of them had eyes only for each other and everything else seemed to fade away.

“I never expected you to succeed!”

After some time, Ling Chang said gently.

“I never expected it to go so smoothly. Most importantly, I am surprised to see you here!” Su Mo said as he looked straight into Ling Chang’s twinkling eyes.

After all, he was alone in Cloud Ridge World and he was not familiar with the place. He was delighted to have Ling Chang to keep him company.

“Do you know how I managed to get here?” Ling Chang smiled all of a sudden. She stood out from the scenery and was as beautiful as the blooming flowers.

When Su Mo saw Ling Chang’s expression, he was taken aback. He felt as though Qingxuan was standing before him.

Only Qingxuan would give him that mischievous smile, not Ling Chang.

“I have no idea!” Su Mo said as he shook his head.

“I have been following you!” Ling Chang said as she shook her head. She was surprised that given Su Mo’s wit, he had failed to guess how she had managed to get there!

“I’m surprised that I did not notice you!” Su Mo said in amazement. He reckoned that Ling Chang must have followed him but he had been distracted earlier.

However, he was curious that he had not noticed Ling Chang following behind him as she would not have done it secretly.

“Let’s talk in your courtyard!”

Ling Chang said with a sigh. She walked into the courtyard and Su Mo shut the door and sat down with her at a stone table.

“I did not manage to catch up with you. I made it to Cloud Ridge World as I followed the aura and traces that you have left behind!” Ling Chang said. If Su Mo had not constantly replenished his Power Source with the Dawn Stones, she would not have been able to find her way to Cloud Ridge World without the residues that had been left behind.

“I see!” Su Mo was enlightened. Ling Chang was not as quick as him and she was, in fact, far away from him. She had been following his aura and the residues that he had left behind and that kept her on the track.

After sizing Ling Chang up, Su Mo was surprised to see that her cultivation level was also at Rank 8 Middle True God Realm.

“Have you recovered from your injuries?” Su Mo asked solemnly when he saw Ling Chang’s pale look.

“I will need a long period of time to recover fully!” Ling Chang replied with a sigh. She had not suffered any physical injuries but her Primordial Spirit and Spiritual Soul had been severely injured.

Back then, she had not realized that she was approaching the Star Beast and had reckoned that it was a star. She was hit by the Star Beast’s breath.

She had used much force to resist the breath and although she had managed to protect her physical body, her Spiritual Soul and Primordial Spirit had been severely injured, and they were on the verge of destruction.

Under normal circumstances, with such severe injuries, she would need at least 100 years to recover.

However, Reverend Jin Wu had given her rare Spiritual Herbs that had helped her secure her Spiritual Soul. That made it possible for her to recover within such a short period of time.

“A long period of time?”

Su Mo frowned and said, “Di Yihun is in Ancient Cloud Star Alliance. It will be risky for us to stay on as we are no match for him at the moment!”

“Where is he?” Ling Chang started to frown when she heard what Su Mo had said. She had just awakened and was not aware of the situation.

She knew that Di Yihun was in Cloud Ridge World and that was the reason for her to adopt a different name.

“He should be in that star!” Su Mo lifted his head and pointed at a huge star that was at the end of the horizon. It was the Ancient Cloud Star.

Su Mo was not certain if Di Yihun was in Ancient Cloud Star. However, since Young Master Liu Yun was a Core Disciple of Ancient Cloud Star Alliance and he had brought Di Yihun along with him, Di Yihun should be in Ancient Cloud Star with him.

Although Ancient Cloud Star was far away from Palmy Star and there were several stars in between, Palmy Star belonged to the territory of Ancient Cloud Star Alliance, after all.

When Ling Chang heard what Su Mo had said, she became silent.

“What’s the matter?” Su Mo asked with a baffled look. Is Ling Chang unwilling to leave with him?

“Su Mo, I have been severely injured. If I leave this place and recuperate on my own, I will need 20 to 30 years to recover from my injuries. However, with Reverend Jin Wu’s help, I will be able to recover within six months!”

Ling Chang replied with a grave look. She would have liked to have left with Su Mo, but she had been severely injured. She would need a long period of time to recover if she were to leave Palmy Star.

“20 to 30 years? Is this what Reverend Jin Wu has told you?” Su Mo asked with a frown. He was wondering if Reverend Jin Wu had told that to Ling Chang to retain her.

“No!”

Ling Chang shook her head and said, “He has told me that I will be able to recover within half a year. If I were to depend on myself, I think I would need 20 to 30 years to do so.”

“I see!” Su Mo nodded. He was being too cautious and had misunderstood Reverend Jin Wu.

“Su Mo, before I came over, Reverend Jin Wu asked if I was willing to join Ancient Cloud Star Alliance and stay on in Palmy Branch. If I am not willing to do so, we can leave immediately. However, if I join the Alliance, I will become his disciple and he will help to treat my injuries!” Ling Chang said.

When Su Mo heard this, he was silent, He did not want to leave Ling Chang behind. However, if she were to leave, she would not be able to recover from her injuries quickly.

“Will he refuse to treat your injuries if you are not his disciple?” Su Mo asked.

“He is not obligated to do so!” Ling Chang said as she shook her head. There was no reason for Reverend Jin Wu to help her.

“How did you answer him?” Su Mo asked. He could tell that Ling Chang had the desire to stay on.

“I have not given him an answer. I am here to discuss it with you. If you do not want me to stay, we will leave immediately!” Ling Chang replied as she shook her head. She would heed Su Mo’s advice.

She had the intention to stay on as she was unaware that Di Yihun was in the Alliance. Secondly, she wanted to recover promptly from her injuries. Thirdly, she felt indebted to Reverend Jin Wu.

“Come, let’s go and meet Reverend Jin Wu!” Su Mo said. He felt that he had to inform Reverend Jin Wu about their situation. Reverend Jin Wu seemed sincere about helping Ling Chang as he must have discovered her great talent.

“Alright. He is waiting for an answer from me!”

Ling Chang nodded. She and Su Mo left the courtyard and both of them headed toward a hall in Jin Wu Mansion.

The hall was grand and when Su Mo and Ling Chang came to the hall, they saw that other than Reverend Jin Wu who was seated on the main seat, two other people were sitting on his lower left.

They were a young man and a young woman. The young man was good-looking and he had fine features. He was in a yellow robe and he looked impressive.

The young woman was outstanding as well. She looked beautiful, and she was in a floral dress. She was as beautiful as a blooming flower and she looked captivating.

The two of them had high cultivation levels.. The young man was a Rank 9 Lower True God, and the young woman was a Low-rank Supreme Being.
