191: Chapter 191 You Won't Go Far
Ye Mo knew that taking down Lin Xinyue wouldn't be simple, so he had to take it slow; regardless, Ye Mo still had some time and wasn't in a rush.
Ye Mo intended to leave a good first impression, so for their first date, the two simply chatted about their respective situations.
In fact, Ye Mo had already asked Ying Ran about her earlier.
To Ye Mo's surprise, Lin Xinyue was actually the great-granddaughter of Lin Huai'an, the fourth Soul Transformation Elder of the Tianlei Sect.
Put simply, Lin Xinyue had come to Lianshui City to gild her resume.
"Ye Mo, I never expected you to actually possess an Undying Body; no wonder the Sect Master would take you in as a Named Disciple."
Ye Mo did not hide it, as everyone would eventually find out about his Undying Body sooner or later.
Lin Xinyue was clearly somewhat shocked, and she quickly connected it to the fact that Ye Mo had remained completely unscathed after her second grandfather's attack.
Initially, she had thought her second grandfather had held back, but she hadn't expected Ye Mo to have withstood it entirely through his own strength.
Of course, she had always been suspicious of how Ye Mo had managed to slay so many Yao Beasts, and now it all made sense.
"It's a pity that I only have a White Spirit Root, otherwise I wouldn't have to come here to hunt Yao Beasts."
Ye Mo sighed, his expression perfectly executed.
"What's wrong with a White Spirit Root? As the saying goes, being born ordinary doesn't necessarily mean being ordinary for life; who can say for sure what the future holds?"
Lin Xinyue encouraged him.
Ye Mo had revealed that he possessed an Undying Body, and in truth, Lin Xinyue had also wanted to reveal her Great Derivation Dao Body, but upon seeing Ye Mo's expression, she held it back, fearing that it would only make Ye Mo feel even more discouraged.
"Junior Sister Lin is right; in the future, I may very well stand at the pinnacle of the world."
Ye Mo revealed a faint smile.
Naturally, he wasn't worried about his future; although the System had stated that Lu Baijun's Taiyin Body would become less effective as Ye Mo's cultivation improved, even if his cultivation were to stop, he could still stand at the pinnacle of the world one day by continuously having children.
"That's the spirit. You must always have confidence. However, you first need to resolve the matter with Deng Xing; although my second grandfather won't pursue it, Uncle-Master Deng Bowen definitely won't let it go."
Lin Xinyue thought to herself that she would only be able to beg her second grandfather to protect Ye Mo when the time came.
Yet, it is easy to dodge a spear in the open, but hard to avoid a hidden arrow; if Uncle-Master Deng Bowen was determined to kill Ye Mo, he would certainly try every possible method.
"Uncle-Master Deng Bowen might not be able to kill me," Ye Mo said indifferently.
"Ye Mo, although the Undying Body is powerful, you only have Foundation Establishment cultivation after all. It is very difficult to block the attack of a Nascent Soul Cultivator. How about this? Come to the Mission Department. As long as you are with me every day, I guarantee that Uncle-Master Deng Bowen won't dare to lay a hand on you."
After Lin Xinyue finished speaking, there was a faint glimmer of anticipation in her heart.
"That won't work. I still need to earn contribution points to exchange for a golden core condensation pill. Besides, as a grown man, I can't stay behind you for the rest of my life."
Ye Mo shook his head.
He still wanted to continue cultivating the Extreme Yang Body with Ying Ran, so naturally, he couldn't stay with Lin Xinyue all the time.
"Oh."
Hearing Ye Mo's refusal, Lin Xinyue was somewhat disappointed, but upon reflection, it made sense. If Ye Mo had agreed and relied solely on her protection, he would likely never accomplish anything great.
As for Uncle-Master Deng Bowen, Lin Xinyue intended to beg her second grandfather to issue him a stern warning, which would likely make Uncle-Master Deng Bowen hesitate.
This meal lasted for two hours, and only then did Ye Mo send Lin Xinyue back to the Tianlei Sect.
The place where Lin Xinyue lived was a massive courtyard, and there were quite a few guards inside.
Arriving at the entrance of the courtyard, the two waved goodbye. Just as Lin Xinyue was about to walk inside, she suddenly turned back and said: "Ye Mo, the food at Xiangman Lou was quite delicious. Shall we go again tomorrow?"
"Okay." Ye Mo was slightly stunned, then immediately nodded.
"Mm, see you tomorrow then."
Lin Xinyue immediately revealed a happy smile and walked into the courtyard.
Several guards saw this scene with expressionless faces, but they were incredibly curious inside. Who was this Ye Mo?
It seemed that their Young Miss treated him very differently.
Over the next few days, Ye Mo's life consisted of killing Yao Beasts, cultivating the Extreme Yang Body, and then dating Lin Xinyue.
Their relationship grew closer and closer.
Especially on March 25th, when Ye Mo automatically took Lin Xinyue's small hand. Lin Xinyue did not resist; instead, she appeared exceptionally lively, and the two walked through the various streets of Lianshui City hand in hand like this.
That evening, after Ye Mo sent Lin Xinyue home, he went to Xiangman Lou to find Ying Ran and cultivated for a night. On the morning of March 26th, Ye Mo headed to the sea alone, waiting for Transmigration.
Lin Xinyue was just preparing to head to the Mission Department when she was called back by Lin Xinghuo.
Lin Xinghuo hadn't been idle these past few days; he had been at the sea.
After the great battle, although the sea had become much calmer, they, as Nascent Soul Cultivators, always felt that something was amiss.
"Second Grandfather, what is it?" Lin Xinyue asked.
"What is going on between you and that Ye Mo?"
As soon as Lin Xinghuo returned, he heard from the guards that Lin Xinyue and Ye Mo were very close.
"What do you mean, what is going on?" Lin Xinyue's gaze flickered, clearly feeling a bit embarrassed.
"Don't try to hide it from Second Grandfather. The guards told me everything. You've been going out on dates with that Ye Mo every day for the past few days. What is it? Have you taken a liking to that boy?"
Lin Xinghuo said.
"Second Grandfather, it's not what you think." Lin Xinyue immediately became coy.
"Yueyue, although that boy Ye Mo isn't bad, the gap in your statuses is ultimately too great. You need to think this through."
The Lin family could be considered a behemoth within the Tianlei Sect. He still didn't know Ye Mo's identity, and he had sent people to the Sect to investigate, but the news hadn't arrived yet.
In fact, the most important thing was Lin Xinyue herself; she was of the Great Derivation Dao Body, and her future achievements were limitless.
"Second Grandfather, I..."
"Yueyue, barring any accidents, you will definitely head to the Tian Prefecture in the future, but whether Ye Mo can break through to Soul Transformation is an unknown. Second Grandfather is worried that you won't get far at all."
Lin Xinghuo shook his head as he spoke.
"Second Grandfather, Ye Mo isn't bad either. I believe that in the future, he will definitely be able to break through to Void Refining and head to the Tian Prefecture."
Lin Xinyue gritted her teeth; she was being somewhat dishonest with this statement.
Ye Mo only had a White Spirit Root; was such a possibility truly there?
"You, you are just deceiving yourself. Ye Mo's talent certainly cannot be that good, otherwise the Sect Master would not have only taken him in as a Named Disciple. Of course, I will not involve myself too much in your romantic affairs. What I am worried about is your grandfather; he has very high expectations for you..."
After Lin Xinghuo finished speaking, he waved his hand.
Lin Xinyue's expression immediately drooped.
She was of the Great Derivation Dao Body, and according to her grandfather's way of thinking, only those heaven-favored children of the Tian Prefecture were worthy of his granddaughter.
"No matter what, I will strive to fight for it."
Lin Xinyue secretly made up her mind.
At the sea, at 10:00 AM, Ye Mo Transmigrated back to Blue Star.
Everything was normal, and Ye Mo breathed a sigh of relief. In truth, he had been worried that after he returned, the Secret Realm would have been found by the gods and demons...
