They All Deeply Regretted It After I Became Indifferent - Chapter 54
Lin Mo really didn’t want to continue dealing with Shen Ke’er anymore.
Out of sight, out of mind.
After making the decision several times, he still planned to leave Qingzhu Peak for a while.
Yesterday, a letter flew in from home, Lin Mo’s grandfather Lin Nantian’s birthday was in half a month, and it was time to go home.
Of course, before leaving, he still had to inform Master Yuehua.
After all, he was a disciple of Yuehua, a member of the Qingling Sect, and everything had to be done according to the rules.
When Yuehua saw Lin Mo, his eyes also brightened slightly.
She had long noticed that her senior disciple was quite handsome.
Yet, in his daily life, he paid no mind to his attire, dressing as plainly as an outer sect disciple despite being the senior brother of Qingzhu Peak.
When she learned that her disciple was going to visit his elders, she naturally agreed.
“Thank you, Master, for your permission. Your disciple takes his leave!”
Lin Mo departed with decisive swiftness.
Watching her disciple’s retreating figure, Yuehua’s hand, slightly raised, fell back to her side, her face showing a trace of melancholy.
These past few days, she had hunted many high-quality spirit beast meats in the Dazhou Mountains, all prepared for her disciple.
Now, it seemed Lin Mo had no intention of allowing her to close the gap between them.
She never really taught her disciples.
Even after taking this senior disciple under her wing, the time she spent teaching Lin Mo cultivation was extremely short.
She had only left behind some heart methods and incantations for a brief period before going into seclusion.
It could be said that her senior disciple’s current success in forming his golden core was all due to his own efforts and talent, with little to do with her as his master.
In the past, it was always Lin Mo who took the initiative to be close to her, and their relationship was maintained by this disciple.
Now, as Lin Mo intentionally distanced himself from her, she wanted to pull their relationship back but didn’t know what to say or do.
She could only watch helplessly as Lin Mo grew further and further away from her.
Her heart grew heavier, and even though she didn’t go into seclusion, she would spend her days in meditation. Now, she had lost the heart to even cultivate.
On Lin Mo’s side, he was actually aware that Real Person Yuehua wanted to be close to him, but he didn’t want to.
Through the dream of Huang Liang, he knew the original owner’s future experiences, and he really couldn’t muster any good feelings for this master anymore.
The direction of his sword flight was towards Baidi City, which would take three days.
But there were still ten days until the auction in Baidi City.
Seeing that there was ample time and the surrounding area was rich in spiritual energy, he assumed there would be plenty of spiritual plants and medicinal herbs.
After purchasing a pill furnace at the auction in Baidi City, he could spend his free time practicing various pills to aid in his cultivation progress or even sell them for a good income.
After all, he had also acquired the skill of pill refining. If he could refine the pills himself, he certainly would, rather than relying on the system’s random draws, which were a loss.
【You stingy host, I offer two hundred regret points per draw, with a chance to get a ninth-grade pill, and you call that a loss?】
‘Have I ever drawn one?’
‘Besides, the pills I draw from you are random, not necessarily something I can use, so why waste regret points on a draw?’
【I’m a system, after all. Can’t you make full use of my value? You make me seem so useless.】
‘No, you are very useful. I just don’t want to spend regret points on something that’s temporarily of no use.’
Lin Mo did indeed love to draw prizes, but his draws were always random, as he wanted to see what interesting things he could get from the system.
Like ‘Rebi’, ‘Lollipop’, ‘Black Silk’, ‘Air Cannon’, ‘Dream of Huang Liang’…
These items, if Lin Mo hadn’t drawn them randomly, who knew one could even designate such things?
Thus, random draws are truly crucial, even expanding the directions for Lin Mo’s future designated draws.
For those unknowns, that’s what primarily sparks his desire for random draws.
If he were to draw those needed items, Lin Mo would choose those he currently can’t obtain.
For instance, techniques, spiritual roots, abilities, and so on…
This pill concoction skill, wasn’t it drawn from the abilities category?
Then, to continue setting ‘elixirs’ as the target draw, wouldn’t that be courting disaster?
With this thought, Lin Mo decided to venture into the wild.
The days spent hunting passed rather quickly, and in a few days, Lin Mo found quite a few medicinal herbs and spiritual plants.
Besides that…
He looked towards the red-dressed girl lying unconscious under a big tree not far away.
Lin Mo wondered whether he should deal with this one?
The girl was found by him on the second day near a river.
She had no injuries, very healthy, but it was unknown why she had fallen into a coma.
After some thought, Lin Mo decided not to take the girl with him.
There were three reasons.
First, the girl’s appearance was delicate and beautiful, not at all inferior to the four junior sisters he had led before.
Second, the girl was enveloped in demonic energy, quite sinister and abnormal.
With these two points, how could she not be trouble?
Most importantly, Lin Mo recognized that this red-dressed woman was indeed no good; whoever picked her up would be unlucky.
Of course, Lin Mo wasn’t the kind of naive cultivator who would unsheathe his sword at the sight of a demon cultivator.
In his view, whether one cultivates immortality or demons, the standard for judging good or bad lies in the heart, not the outer garment of immortals or demons.
He had reasons to say this red dress was a pitfall, and the aftermath would naturally reveal it.
It was already good enough to have pulled the girl out of the river; who knows why she was unconscious.
Moreover, during the past few days of hunting, he had cleared all the monsters within a hundred miles.
Additionally, the girl’s realm was not weak, certainly not lower than his.
If she woke up to someone with ill intentions, it would be the ill-intentioned one who would suffer.
And with Ye Kai nearby, this big pit, what if he jumped into it?
Thinking this way, Lin Mo didn’t meddle further and flew towards Baidi City on his sword.
……..
Lin Mo had just left when Master Yuehua, riding his sword, arrived nearby with Ye Kai and Shen Ke’er.
“Master, the spiritual energy here is abundant, and there are no demons in sight. I’d like to gather some spiritual fruits and medicinal herbs for you and senior sister.”
“If we’re lucky, we might even find some spiritual plants that could heal senior sister Ke’er’s injuries.”
Ye Kai was maintaining his persona.
But Shen Ke’er and Master Yuehua were completely taken in.
Master Yuehua’s face beamed with satisfaction: “Kai’er, you are so thoughtful.”
From noble mtl dot come
Shen Ke’er looked at him tenderly: “Junior brother Ye, with you… and Master, I am truly blessed.”
Their journey was initiated because Ye Kai had proactively sought Master Yuehua’s help for Shen Ke’er.
Coincidentally, Master Yuehua had heard about the once-in-a-decade auction being held in Baidi City.
It was worth a shot to see if they could find the spiritual medicine needed to treat Shen Ke’er’s poisoning there.
Shen Ke’er was deeply moved by this, considering Ye Kai as the one she must marry in this lifetime.
It must be said, their luck was good.
The Qingling Sect’s route to Baidi City was just this one.
And the demons around had just been cleared by Lin Mo.
Sensing no danger around, Master Yuehua allowed Ye Kai to explore the vicinity.
Once out of Shen Ke’er and Master Yuehua’s sight, the amiable smile on Ye Kai’s face disappeared.
He couldn’t disdain Shen Ke’er more at this moment.
But now was the chance to further capture the favor of Master Yuehua and Shen Ke’er, an opportunity not to be wasted.
After a perfunctory search, Ye Kai prepared to make do with some low-quality spiritual plants and fruits.
The next moment, a girl in red under a towering tree caught his attention.
Seeing the girl’s beauty, he couldn’t wait to approach her.
‘Why would such a stunning beauty faint in a place like this?’
Seeing the girl seemingly in a deep sleep, Ye Kai slowly reached out his hand…
The girl in red suddenly opened her crimson eyes, surveyed her surroundings briefly, and wondered if the person had left.
She began to assess Ye Kai, her lips curving into a slight smile: “Did you save me?”
Unfortunately, this girl in red was no good thing.
In other words, would it be a case of dog eat dog, a mouthful of fur?
