Chapter 227 Paranoia
He Xian and Ye Shi talked for more than two hours. After more than two hours, He Xian walked out with a strange look on his face.
"Grandpa, what's wrong with you? Is he related to the Bai family? Is he willing to join the formation tower?" He Jingyue asked impatiently.
In recent years, all the formation masters with a little talent have been poached by the Bai family. He Jingyue saw it and was anxious. Now that Ye Shi appeared, He Jingyue felt that she could not give up no matter what.
"He has a clean background, comes from the outside world, and knows almost nothing about Central China. He is willing to join, but he has conditions." He Xian said.
"What are the conditions?" He Jingyue asked with interest.
"He hopes to help him find someone named Muchen." He Xian said.
"Mu Chen, who is that?" He Jingyue asked with some confusion.
"Ye Shi said that was his partner. He said that his partner was also a seventh-level formation master like him. Originally, they should have been teleported here together, but the Yuanshi in the formation tower was mostly used up by someone else, leaving only enough for teleporting him. He had no choice but to teleport here alone. Now the formation tower in the outer domain can no longer be used." He Xian said.
He Jingyue narrowed her eyes, a hint of hatred flashing in them, "It's Bai Yi, that damn Bai Yi."
He Jingyue originally didn't hold much resentment towards Bai Yi, because, for thousands of years, no level 7 formation master had been teleported from the outer realm. In the outer realm, whether the formation tower's Yuanshi was used up or not was completely irrelevant, but...
How could it be such a coincidence that just as Bai Yi used up all the Yuanshi, two young level seven formation masters were born. This is too much of a coincidence.
"Grandpa, what's wrong with you? Aren't you angry?" He Jingyue looked at He Xian's face and said with some confusion. He Xian's face did not look angry, but mostly helpless and suspicious.
"Ye Shi, he not only said this, he also said something else." He Xian said with a wry smile.
"What else did he say?" He Jingyue asked curiously.
"He said that his partner is very powerful. He is proficient in formations, alchemy, talismans, inscriptions, and weapon refining. Although the formation tower cannot be used, he will be teleported through other towers. He asked us to help keep an eye on the other four towers. His partner will appear soon, and if he shows up, he will come to find him." He Xian murmured.
He Jingyue's eyes widened as she murmured, "This Ye Shi, could he be suffering from delusions?"
At first, when He Xian heard Ye Shi say that Muchen could not be teleported over because of insufficient Yuanshi in the teleportation array, he felt a little angry and regretful. However, after hearing what Ye Shi said later, He Xian was speechless.
According to Ye Shi, Muchen is the same as him, both are eighteen years old and have the cultivation level of Martial Emperor.
There was no master with unfathomable strength. Mu Chen relied on his extraordinary talent to cultivate alchemy, talismans, formations, inscriptions, and refining to the seventh level.
It is said that Muchen is extremely gifted and has extraordinary talent in magic.
It is said that Muchen's fighting power is amazing, and he is at the early stage of Martial Emperor level, so even a Nine-Star Martial Emperor is not his match.
It is said that Muchen is a man of high moral character, tenacious and resolute, who has saved thousands of people from danger and is admired by everyone. He is also loyal in his feelings and only likes Ye Shi.
If there really is such a person, it would be against the will of heaven.
Compared with such people, Bai Yi, the young genius of the Bai family, is no different. However, even Central Continent cannot produce such talents. How can such a heaven-defying person appear in the resource-poor outer realm?
He Xian nodded and said, "Maybe. Of course, it's more likely that he invented a powerful lover for himself."
Many formation masters have various quirks. For example, there was once a formation master who had a very bad memory and could not even remember his concubine's face. When he went to bed at night, he actually climbed into the bed of someone else's wife.
He Jingyue nodded and said, "It's possible."
Ye Shi has an elegant appearance, and can be considered very handsome, but He Jingyue has heard that men from outside the domain like Shuang'er who looks gentle and fragile, such as Zhuang Yu brought back by Bai Yi. Perhaps, under long-term repression, Ye Shi has fabricated a perfect lover for himself.
"Grandpa, did you promise him?" He Jingyue asked.
He Xian nodded and said, "I agree." Given the current situation of the Formation Master Guild, he had no choice but to agree.
A lean camel is bigger than a horse. Although the Formation Master Guild cannot be compared with the Alchemist Guild and the Talisman Master Guild, which are in their heyday, it still has some assets. It is not difficult to pay attention to the conditions of the Alchemy Tower, Talisman Tower, Refining Tower, and Inscription Tower.
"This Ye Shi knows nothing about Zhongzhou. You should try your best to have a good relationship with him and don't let the Bai family poach him away." He Xian said seriously.
He Jingyue nodded and said, "I understand."
An eighteen-year-old seventh-level formation master. Bai Yi of the Bai family also became a seventh-level formation master at the age of twenty.
He Jingyue and Ye Shi were walking on the street. He Jingyue would steal glances at Ye Shi from time to time. Ye Shi's face looked pale and haggard.
"What kind of person is Mu Chen you are looking for?" He Jingyue asked tentatively.
At the mention of Muchen, Ye Shi's tense expression relaxed a bit, a gentle smile spreading across his face, the gloom on his face vanishing. "Is Muchen really that powerful? He's proficient in alchemy, talisman making, pills, inscriptions, and formations."
He Jingyue twitched the corner of her mouth and asked tentatively: "Besides these, what else can he do?"
"What else?" He Jingyue asked.
"He can fight. Mu Chen is very good at killing monsters. With a wave of his hand, every level six monster that comes will die. None of them can escape." Ye Shi said proudly.
"Mu Chen is so amazing!" He Jingyue said with a distorted expression.
"Yes! On our side, the old monsters called Martial Emperors who have lived for hundreds of years are all respectful to Muchen. They can't beat Muchen and have something to ask of him." Ye Shi said proudly.
"Does he like you?" He Jingyue asked.
Ye Shi nodded and said, "I like him! When he was at the martial arts master level, he took a blow from the martial arts king just for me. Mu Chen only likes Ye Shi."
He Jingyue looked at Ye Shi's expression and thought secretly: This Mu Chen is indeed a character imagined by Ye Shi. If the martial artist had taken the blow from the King of Martial Arts, he would have died long ago. It seems that Ye Shi's delusion is quite serious.
"Ye Shi, what do you think of Zhongzhou?" He Jingyue asked.
"Very good!" Ye Shi said. "The Yuan Qi is dozens of times richer than the place I came from, and the Yuan Stone is much higher quality than ours. We only have low-grade Yuan Stone there."
He Jingyue smiled, secretly impressed. Ye Shi could cultivate to such a level at such a young age in such a wild place. If he grew up in Zhongzhou, his strength would be...
"Ye Shi, how much do you know about Zhongzhou?" He Jingyue asked.
Ye Shi narrowed his eyes and said, "I know, Bai Yi is from Zhongzhou." His dead father is also from Zhongzhou.
He Jingyue was stunned for a moment and asked, "Do you know Bai Yi?"
Ye Shi nodded, a hint of hatred flashing in his eyes, "Yes! If he hadn't used up all the Yuanshi in the formation tower, Mu Chen wouldn't have separated from me."
He Jingyue looked at Ye Shi's expression and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Since Ye Shi had a grudge against the Bai family, he probably had no good feelings towards the Bai family.
"This time, Bai Yi brought back a young man named Zhuang Yu from the outside world." He Jingyue said.
"I know him, Zhuang Yu. He always competes with me for Muchen. But he can't win against me. Muchen only likes me." Ye Shi said with narrowed eyes.
He Jingyue stared blankly and said, "You and Zhuang Yu know each other, and you are rivals in love."
Ye Shi nodded and said, "Yes!"
He Jingyue blinked, confirming once again Ye Shi's delusion.
If there really is such a person as Muchen, and he is liked by both Zhuang Yu and Ye Shi at the same time, He Jingyue feels that it is more likely that Muchen likes Zhuang Yu.
It's not that Ye Shi is a bad person, but Zhuang Yu has a special magic power over men. Not long after he arrived in Zhongzhou, countless young talents were fascinated by him. Moreover, Ye Shi's appearance should not be considered good-looking in the aesthetic standards of outsiders.
Ye Shi looked at He Jingyue and asked, "How is Zhuang Yu now?"
He Jingyue sighed softly and said, "Zhuang Yu has excellent talent. Bai Yi is completely obedient to him. For Zhuang Yu's sake, Bai Yi asked Senior Bai Chenxing of the Bai family to cleanse Zhuang Yu's meridians and marrow. Now he is already a Nine-Star Martial King. He only needs one step to become a Martial Emperor."
Ye Shi said angrily, "Who is Bai Chenxing? Is he having an affair with Zhuang Yu? Why did he cleanse Zhuang Yu's meridians and marrow?"
He Jingyue's expression suddenly changed. "You are asking for your life. Bai Chenxing is a taboo figure. Ye Shi, you can't say such things casually."
He Jingyue looked around anxiously, and only felt relieved when she saw no one paying attention to them. (To be continued, Liancheng Reading will bring more excitement. Reading pursues dreams, writing creates the future!)
