Heaven Slaying Blade

With that, Miao Yi Niang's bright, captivating eyes focused on Chu Mo: "This isn't a matter of desire, but of capability. The luck of this sister of mine, the dove, has been good to meet a young hawk, to be able to soar the blue skies with him for a while is already a fortunate thing. Chu Yan, don't you think that's so?"

"Ah, I...yes, yes indeed." Chu Yan seemed to be contemplating something and appeared a bit distracted. When asked by Miao Yi Niang, she replied hurriedly.

Miao Yi Niang casts a deep gaze upon Chu Yan, then turned to Chu Mo: "Hand it over, my young master. After all, in this lifetime, I will be yours!"

"What do you mean, yours..." Chu Mo was completely bewildered, but he handed over the elixir bottle nonetheless: "The bottle contains three elixirs in total. One should be taken every ten days. This will assist you in adapting to each realm better."

Chu Yan watched the elixir bottle without blinking, her eyes filled with admiration.

Observing Chu Yan, Chu Mo inquired: "You are also talented. Do you want to take this shortcut as well?"

Miao Yi Niang spoke lightly, "Consider well what it is you truly want before deciding."

Despite already having made up her mind, these words from Miao Yi Niang startled Chu Yan. She gazed at her. Miao Yi Niang said: "My young master will undoubtedly venture into the void one day. If you wish to follow him, then just reaching the Golden-Stone Realm clearly won't be enough."

Chu Yan looked at Chu Mo in surprise and after a long silence, she said faintly, "That day will come soon, won't it?"

"I don't know." Images of Qi Xiaoyu's beautiful face surfaced in Chu Mo's mind, causing a slight sting in his heart.

Chu Yan thought for a while, then broke into a smile: "My lord, I too, want such an elixir. I wonder if you are willing to part with one?"

Chu Mo stared seriously at Chu Yan: "You want it as well?"

"Yes!" Chu Yan's eyes filled with a faint mist as she quietly stated, "Before meeting you, Chu Yan was just a blade...a weapon wielded by the queen. I once said that Prince Xia Jing wasn't good, but Chu Yan herself...is she any better? After meeting you, it seems that Chu Yan has finally become a real person."

Chu Yan looked at Chu Mo, "Hence, Chu Yan is willing to do anything for you! Since you currently need manpower, need assistance, why not have Chu Yan once again become the blade! Chu Yan is more than willing!"

Chu Mo watched Chu Yan with a frown, seeming to hesitate.

Of the massive amount of fine medicinal ingredients acquired from Xia Jing, along with the medication to cure the Demon Lord from the poison, Chu Mo also concocted a dozen or so elixirs that could help one break through to the Golden-Stone Realm. This jade was like an unfathomable alchemist - for every elixir in the world, as long as Chu Mo knew what he wanted, the jade could provide an extremely precise elixir formula.

In other words, as long Chu Mo could acquire the medicinal ingredients needed for alchemy, theoretically, the jade could produce any elixir in the world!

Therefore, Chu Mo's hesitation wasn't due to reluctance to part with the elixir. He was simply concerned about Chu Yan's future—about possibly obstructing her opportunity to break through to an even higher level.

Miao Yin Niang and Chu Yan were not in the same circumstances. The situation was looking grim for Miao Yi Niang with her identity exposed. Her enemies, having suffered losses, were likely to come back stronger, and she can't hide forever.

There will come a day when she has to face these formidable enemies. Therefore, the best solution was for her to elevate her realm as quickly and as highly as possible. That way, she can safely weather the looming series of crises.

At level six of the Yellow Rank, are already formidable enough to rule human society.

In this world, Heart Cultivation stage warriors are practically regarded as omnipotent. They would hardly appear in this mundane world.

"You finally became a person after so much effort. Why do you choose to become a blade once again?" Chu Mo frowned, looking at Chu Yan.

Chu Yan's smile bloomed like a beautiful flower. "I'm more than willing to be your blade! Moreover, being in the realm of Golden-Stone! I could be a powerhouse among men. In the future, even if you really do break through the void and leave, Chu Yan, in this mundane world, can be considered a true master. Even the emperor would have to give me a look of respect. If I can live up to this stage in my life, it will be worthwhile!"

Miao Yi Niang looked at Chu Yan with admiration in her eyes, thinking to herself: 'The girl is truly clever! Shattering the void? There hasn't been such a powerful figure in hundreds of years! Trying to reach that position through cultivation alone is like trying to reach the sky.'

Truly knowing oneself is a very difficult thing. What's impressive is that she, at her young age, had already understood this point.

Miao Yi Niang looked at Chu Mo and gently said, "Give it to her, it's perfect, with this little sister accompanying me, if one day, you really leave, I won't be...that lonely." When Miao Yi Niang said this, her heart trembled slightly, and a voice came from the bottom of her heart: Am I really not lonely?

Chu Mo sighed and said, "Alright." Then he handed another elixir bottle to Chu Yan.

Miao Yi Niang's gaze became somewhat vacant as she watched Chu Mo, murmuring, "How many do you actually have? Even one of these elixirs... would throw the entire Yanhuang City into madness. My young master... it's only been half a year..."

Chu Yan took the elixir bottle tremblingly, and then she solemnly said, "Master, in a month's time, I will become the sharpest blade by your side!"

...

Returning to the Fan Residence, resuming his original form, and sitting in his own room, Chu Mo's heart was still a little heavy. He didn't know whether he was right or wrong in doing so.

Perhaps because his master was from the Immortal Realm, Chu Mo's vision was very broad. Without exaggeration, Chu Mo's vision is almost unparalleled in this world!

What he understood, what he felt from the Demon Lord... all the knowledge he had learned, were from the Immortal Realm. Therefore, Chu Mo never thought that the nine innate layers of this world would be his end point.

So, subconsciously, he extended this mentality to people around him.

This included Xu Erfu, Miao Yi Niang, and even Chu Yan. And even his grandfather, the One-Armed Uncle, and others.

Chu Mo always thought that what he could achieve, they should also be able to. What he wanted should also be what they want!

But what happened today made Chu Mo suddenly realize that his previous thoughts...seemed a bit naive!

These people around him, their talents, their vision, their mindset... have already determined their potential heights.

Even if he told them that beyond this azure sky, there is the Spirit Realm, there's the Immortal Realm, even... the Heavenly Realm!

They would still choose to stay in this lowest Mortal Realm.

Because their hearts... are here!

And their talents determine that they could almost never break through to that higher world.

The most precious thing in this world is not what is 'unattainable' or 'lost', but the present moment that is cherished!

Wang Dafa, the wealthy man who seemingly has an explosive aura, has a particularly clear understanding of this.

People like Miao Yi Niang also have a clear understanding.

Just like Miao Yi Niang said, there are many birds in the world that can fly in the sky. But a dove can never fly as high as an eagle!

Moreover, a dove might not necessarily even like to fly to the height of an eagle!

The scenery is uniquely good, but one also has to bear the onslaught of the Gang wind.

Chu Mo sat quietly in his room thinking all night. When the room darkened, and when the first ray of morning light came into the room, shining on his face, casting a golden glow on his face... Chu Mo finally took a deep breath.

A relieved smile appeared on his face.

He had figured it out. (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to QiDian (qidian.com) to vote for the recommendation ticket and monthly ticket. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users can read at m.qidian.com.)
