Mesmerizing Ghost Doctor

“Of course there were! They hunted me all the way to Penglai Immortal Island. Those people were tough to deal with, but they couldn’t get an advantage over me. I didn’t want to worry you, thus I didn’t send you the news.”

“Has your cultivation strength advanced?” Xuanyuan Mo Ze looked at her and asked, sensing a marked difference in the energy breath on her body. She should have reached the Celestial level by now.

She smiled and nodded. “Mm, I believe so. I’ve already reached the Celestial cultivator level. My strength and mental state have both risen. By chance, I also obtained a golden lotus. Is it possible that Old Man Tianji directed me to Penglai Immortal Island in search of the golden lotus?”

“Did you go up the Immortal Ascension Ladder?”

“I went up, but I didn’t pass through. I heard it was the gateway to another realm. After I had climbed to the top, I went down. So, I obtained the golden lotus, boosted my strength, got rid of the people who were following me, and then went back home discreetly.” She said with a smile, “Oh, by the way, I still need to go talk to Mo Chen about the golden lotus.”

As she talked, she reached into the space and took out a lotus seed. “I just broke through by eating a lotus seed. This lotus seed has a lot of power. Try eating one.”

“I just entered the Celestial level on the land beyond the seas; now is not the time to move to the next level.” Xuanyuan Mo Ze shoved it back to her. “Keep it for yourself!”

Feng Jiu put the lotus seed in a tiny bottle and handed it to him. “Keep it, then! It will be useful in the future.”

Only after hearing her say so did Xuanyuan Mo Ze collect the lotus seed. “Eat! Don’t let it get cold.” As he spoke, he transferred the egg and meat in his bowl to Feng Jiu. “Eat some more.”

Feng Jiu was shocked to see the bowl filled to the brim with meat. “I got them, too!”

“Eat more, you’re getting thinner.” Xuanyuan Mo Ze gave Feng Jiu all of the meat in his bowl.

“This egg is for you.” She used the chopstick to give him the egg. “Alright, don’t give me any more food. Let’s eat! I have something to tell you later!”

Xuanyuan Mo Ze started eating as well. The bowl of ordinary noodles made him feel like it was the most wonderful meal he had eaten in a long time, not just because she made it, but also because she was at his side.

“What do you want to tell me?” Xuanyuan Mo Ze asked after the two of them had finished eating and the bowls had been put aside.

“Actually, I have an idea that I’d like to discuss with you.”

She turned to face him and stated, “Those people want the blue lotus inside my body. They are in the dark, whereas we are in the light. We still don’t know who is working behind the scenes. So I’m looking for a way to enter their ranks, making investigating and eliminating them easier.” She was cut off before she had finished speaking.

“No!” Xuanyuan Mo Ze frowned. “I don’t agree, this is too dangerous.”

Feng Jiu countered, “However, it will be worse if it isn’t dealt with in this way.”

“That method shouldn’t be used.” He gave her a look and said, “If they come back, we will face them head-on. Since you and I are both at the celestial level, there is no need to fear them.”
