Magic Sect of Beauties: The Strongest Mage is in a Cultivation World

"..."

"..."

"Is she going to be okay?"

"Yes, don't worry too much about it..."

"But she's still unconscious, and..."

"Relax, I'm going to re-seal the spirit wound for now, and I'm sure she'll wake up right after."

So many voices echoed in Mu Lin's head, most of which she didn't recognize.

However, after a small bright light touched her senses and a feeling of warmth spread through her body, she finally opened her eyes.

"Uuuhhnnn~"

She found herself in an unfamiliar room.

While she hadn't really looked around, the design pattern of the ceiling was one she'd never seen before.

She rose from the bed and groaned a little more.

"When did I fall asleep? And... why does my body hurt a little?"

She was wearing a white towel to cover her beautiful body, as well as the large spirit wound on her side.

Just then, a familiar voice came to soothe her worries.

"You suddenly went unconscious in the pool, so we had to get you out and examine you. Suzhen was able to re-seal your spirit wounds, so you won't feel that kind of pain for a while."

Mu Lin didn't need to look to see who was speaking; she was very familiar with Yang Wei's voice by then.

"I see..." she said solemnly.

The look on her face showed she wasn't happy in the slightest. While she remained seated on the bed, she just stared down at her lap in disappointment──as though she felt she was too weak and that caused her companions to worry.

Yang Wei, at the time, was already dressed in his white and blue daoist robes, indicating that he knew they'd spent enough time in the Osmanthus World. Surely, it was time to leave.

"Lin'er... I just want to know one thing."

Yang Wei spoke with a serious voice. Normally, he wouldn't speak in this manner, but he was just too worried about her to make light of the situation.

Mu Lin looked at Yang Wei, "Oh, what's that?"

"Why didn't you tell me your spirit wounds were so painful that you had to seal them?" a plain faced Yang Wei asked.

Mu Lin, as expected, tried to act ignorant. She waved her hands gently but dismissively, "I-, I don't recall ever saying I sealed my wound. I mean, it's a serious condition, but not so much that I'd have t──"

"Don't lie to me."

There was no leniency in Yang Wei's words. He didn't care if he cut her off mid-sentence because what she was saying was a lie.

"Suzhen said when she sealed your wounds, she could already sense residual traces of a sealing technique on it. She says if the spirit wound hadn't been sealed then, you'd have died even before I returned from seclusion. If you'd really explained how serious it was, I would've dropped everything else I was doing and found a solution sooner."

The more Yang Wei talked, the angrier Mu Lin got.

She did her best to channel her anger into her fists, squeezing them tightly as she hung her head in shame and disappointment.

"Can you just... shut up?" she finally said.

Of all the words she had processed in her mind, that was the only one she truly felt comfortable saying.

"Wait, what?" Yang Wei's face turned perplexed. "Where did that come from?"

With no consideration, Mu Lin's next response was a violent one.

"I said it! SHUT UP!"

Her expression was aggressive, and the way she panted showed she was releasing all of her suppressed frustration.

"You always keep shouting about how you'll find a solution or how you'll do this, but you haven't done anything! You've just sat there doing nothing! All you do is worry about your duty as Grand Elder and what woman you're going to sleep with next! I get it, maybe because when I die, you'll still have a plethora of women at your service, so I'm just another woman to you!"

"..."

No words from Yang Wei.

"RIGHT?!"

Mu Lin still kept pushing for an answer.

With a sigh, Yang Wei walked towards Mu Lin and placed a hand on her head.

In a situation like this, most women would have flinched at the sight of a man raising a hand, but she was certain Yang Wei would never hit her. This kind gesture and his refusal to get aggressive made her feel bad for what she had said. Find your next adventure on empire

Gently, as Yang Wei stroked and patted her head, Mu Lin lifted her gaze to look at him.

"I'm sorry for what I said. I'm just a little..." she paused, feeling that even her apology was lacking.

However, Yang Wei just chuckled and said, "Apology accepted. But your statement is valid; I haven't been doing enough."

Mu Lin shook her head several times. "No, no, you're doing just fine." A warm, calming smile formed on her soft face.

Yang Wei sat on the bed beside her, and he too was smiling warmly.

That alone told her all she needed to know──that she was completely forgiven for what she'd said. In many other relationships, those words could have marked the end, but Yang Wei's atypical reaction salvaged their relationship.

"Remember when I said I had a surprise for you?"

Mu Lin nodded. "Yes, I remember that..."

Caring as always, Yang Wei used a finger to tuck some of Mu Lin's hair behind her ears, maybe so he could see more of her smile.

It got her a little flustered, and her eyes trailed to the side for a moment. "S-, say it already," she mumbled with red cheeks.

"Meiyan probably suffered an even worse spirit wound than you did, but I visited her recently and her cultivation base is already recovering. Apparently, she'll be even stronger than before once she fully heals."

Mu Lin was already about to ask how that was possible.

Clearly aware she would, Yang Wei held out a hand to pause her so he could continue. . .

"It's all thanks to the Moon Nectar Flower, a divine medicinal plant formed from the light of one's inner moon."

"One's inner moon? Divine medicinal plant?" Mu Lin raised an eyebrow.

She was a tad skeptical of it.

And, it was a reasonable reaction considering the fact that anything divine would have to be in the Middle Regions or higher, certainly not within their current reach.

"A year ago, I got some helpful information from a heavenly acquaintance of mine."

Mu Lin's eyebrows raised even higher. "Whom?"

"That, you don't need to know..." Yang Wei held out a finger and winked at her.

"Hrrmm..." Mu Lin grunted a bit as she pouted.

"There's an impressive cultivation technique called the Tranquil Moon and Tranquil Sky Incantation. It's likely the strongest technique in the entire Celestial Serpent Sect, mainly because we didn't create it ourselves but inherited it from another sect. Cultivating it allows one to create a moon and the vast expanse of the sky within oneself.

All you need is an Immortal cultivation base, and if you cultivate it to the ninth level, you'll become a Divinity."

Feeling defeated, Mu Lin sighed, "As interesting as it sounds, that really doesn't help us much."

Yang Wei gently flicked her head with his finger.

"Ow!" Mu Lin touched her forehead. "What was that for?"

"Your negativity..."

It was like Yang Wei was looking in a mirror.

When Ling Yue, the Heavenly Moon Goddess, explained how the Moon Nectar Flower could help and how he could access it, he was very skeptical and mostly negative. His worry for Ling Meiyan and Míng Huīrán's conditions fueled his doubt.

Now, Mu Lin was in a similar situation──worried she might never be healed.

It was that worry he wanted to ease.

"The Moon Nectar Flower can be refined from the inner moon created by cultivating the Tranquil Moon and Tranquil Sky Incantation. While I don't have the cultivation base needed to do this, Suzhen has agreed to help by ensuring that the woman who can actually refine this divine medicinal plant is available to heal you."

Mu Lin already felt a heavy load lifted off her back. "Wait... but do we have a Divine-level cultivator in our sect?" she asked.

A voice from the door answered. . .

"Fairy Su Meirong. The woman that's popularly known as Sect Grandmother."

It was Bai Suzhen.

"S-, Sect Founder..." Mu Lin uttered.

Bai Suzhen smiled at Mu Lin. "How are your wounds?"

Mu Lin immediately realized her lack of manners and on where she was seated, she placed her hands in a greeting gesture and bowed her head. "Greetings, Sect Founder! I-, I thank you for sealing my spirit wound!"

"It's fine..." Bai Suzhen casually waved a hand.

Yang Wei grinned. "So, Suzhen... mind breaking the rest of the news to her?"n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"Hmm, I suppose so."

Bai Suzhen looked from Yang Wei back to Mu Lin.

" Given how stubborn Meirong is, she probably won't be returning to our sect anytime soon. However, we can kill multiple dragons with one stone. Yang Wei has volunteered to head to the Land of the Supremes to find Meirong. She's the only one who can heal you and help recover your cultivation base, and also..."

The look on Bai Suzhen's face hardened, not looking friendly at all.

"...I have some things I must discuss with her."
