Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Ye Mo interrupted Niu Runan and asked "Why did these two gang up on you? Did you get some top treasure?"
Hearing this, Niu Runan hesitated before saying "It's not mine, it's young mistress's lightning sound ages fruit..."
She felt Ye Mo was a good person and he just saved her life. He didn't know her and dared to let her own him god crystals so she said it. But then she immediately regreted, who knew if Ye Mo would fight for such dao fruit.
"What, Ages Fruit?" Ye Mo exclaimed in shock. From the jade slip he bought at the market place, he knew what the ages fruit was.
Even Ye Mo would dream to get such dao fruit. He didn't expect Niu Runan was hunted for this. Ye Mo's heart heated up. If he could get the fruit and learn time law or just a sliver, it would be a huge increase to his power.
Seeing Ye Mo's shocked tone, Niu Runan's heart sunk. She felt she shouldn't have said this but then she thought, even if she didn't say it, there would be a reason two immortal emperor tertiary stage were hunting her. Ye Mo could guess she got something good.
Thinking about this, Niu Runan quickly said "This time dao fruit isn't mine. It's young mistress's. after she grabbed the fruit, she gave it to me and helped stall the people hunting me..."
"Wait..." Ye Mo interrupted her, "You're saying she gave you the fruit and stayed to stop the others from robbing the fruit.
Niu Runan didn't really want to show the fruit to Ye Mo and answered "Yes but this dao fruit isn't mine. If it's mine, I'm willing to give it to you to thank you for saving my life."
Ye Mo smiled "Time dao fruit is very precious I want it indeed but I wouldn't rob yours. Don't worry. I just feel this thing is about strange. It's not that I'm looking down on her but she's indeed not so much a good person.
Hearing this, Niu Runan's face became uneasy. If it wasn't that she owed Ye Mo and he saved her, she would get angry.
Seeing her face Ye Mo said "Since she gave the dao fruit to you, she would catch up on time. However, you were gained up on by two immortal emperor tertiary stages. Other than me, no one came. Even now I don't see your young mistress. Dao friend Runan, don't tell me you didn't send a message yet or that young mistress doesn't know how to find you. I won't believe this."
Niu Runan's face changed. Things were really as Ye Mo said. She sent messages but the young mistress still hasn't come to help her. If it wasn't for Ye Mo, she would've been long dead.
"She's helping me cut the chase. She's stopping all those who want to chase for the fruit or she would be here already." Niu Runan said with low confidence.
Ye Mo sneered "Everyon saw her throw the dao fruit to you right? Since they saw it, would they stop her? Those two hunted you were a good example. Do you think she would waste time there having meaningless battle? if I was her, I would come back you up immediately but in reality, she didn't come right?"
Niu Runan's face was bad and she didn't talk. Ye Mo added "Let's imagine this. if the young mistress gave you the time dao fruit, she would chase up to you immediately. Other people knows the dao fruit isn't on her so they wouldn't waste time with her. She didn't come over so this means she probably didn't give you the time dao fruit. If she really didn't give it to you, then she wouldn't be coming to find you but get as far away from you as possible."
Niu Runan's face was getting pale. Since young mistress didn't come to back her up immediately, it meant that she probably has a fake dao fruit.
Since she was given the fake box, there was only one reason. She was used as the decoy scapegoat. Niu Runan's face was more and more pale. She didn't dare to keep thinking. She had been with the young mistress for all these years. She had been very loyal. If she was just completely used, she wouldn't be able to accept this fact.
Before Ye Mo said anything, she took out the jade box and opened it. There was a god crystals laying inside, no lightning sound ages fruit.
Although he knew what he said was probably, Ye Mo was still disappointed when he saw the box was fake. He really wanted to see the ages fruit.
Niu Runan's face was pale. Her face was extremely dejected. If the young mistress was in trouble and her life was needed, she wouldn't hesitate at all. But being used as a bait and sacrifice like this, she was just sad and disappointed.
Just when Ye Mo was thinking about how to leave Niu Runan, Niu Runan suddenly said "Since I was very young, my mother left me. The Heng god corner took me in and raised me up. I've been with the young mistress since then and she never mistreated me. she even gave me a spot into the mountain. If it wasn't for her, I would've long been dead.
Ye Mo thanks for saving me. if it wasn't for you, I would be dead today. My life is pretty much returned to the young mistress. I don't owe the Heng god corner anymore. I owe you a life..."
Ye Mo quickly interrupted her "Don't take these small things to heart. I'm going good bye."
"Wait..." Niu Runan stopped Ye Mo.
Niu Runan took out a jade slip and gave it to Ye Mo "These are the places with the best dao fruits and materials in the mountain. You might not know since you have never been here. You can have this."
Seeing Ye Mo take the jade slip, Niu Runan said goodbye and left.
Ye Mo scanned the jade slip. The information was a bit obscure but had an approximate location. Shanyun cliff. There's often source abstruse silk appearing there. It's a material that could be used to time law magic artefact.
It's also said that there's a seven star extreme well there. This is a well that can refine the body. It can also fuse body refinement god art.
Cheng Zheng lake, there's frequent discovery of Qing Tao Qi Lan there. It's a top herb that can be used to concoct dao moulding pills.
...
The jade slip even marked out some routes where time whirlpools appeared.
Ye Mo put the jade slip and was very grateful to Niu Runan. She helped him quite a bit. The mountain was boundless and spirit sense was limited. God art was also suppressed. If Niu Runan didn't tell him, even if he searched for a year he might not find these places. If he accidentally went into time whirlpools, he might die.
These God Necropolis Domain powers indeed had their own ways.
The first place Ye Mo chose to go was Muhua Floating valley. The seven star extreme well was very important to him. He was now immortal god body peak. Ye Mo felt annoyed he couldn't break through to divine body.
To him, break through to divine body was important but more importantly it was learning god arts. He had quite some god arts but didn't have a great god art nor a body refinement god art.
His body refinement is purely defense. If he could learn a body refinement god art, his power would increase many times.
As Ye Mo walked, his spirit sense carefully scanned out. He had to be careful of time whirlpools.
Six blueish green herbs appeared in Ye Mo's spirit sense. Ye Mo immediately recognized this was red cloud god herb. it was a spirit eye type god herb. it couldn't be found in the immortal realm. If there was an immortal cultivating spirit eye god art, this herb would be invaluable.
