I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 1728: Chapter 890 We Are True Love

At this moment, Chen Mobai thought of something.

Back at the Golden Liquid Jade Pill distribution meeting, despite the public opinion, Ye Yune insisted on assigning one to Jiang Yuyuan from the Weapon Dancing Sect.

People attending the meeting felt something was amiss, even though Jiang Yuyuan was her subordinate and the most likely person to succeed in cultivating the Mystic Sound Method over the years, he was ultimately from the Weapon Dancing Sect.

However, later Ye Yune expressed that she had already persuaded Jiang Yuyuan to switch allegiance to the Kunpeng Lineage, so everyone accepted this explanation.

In the Immortal Gate, switching allegiances is not common, yet it is not unheard of.

Take Lan Haitian for example, a Kunpeng graduate, now a key cultivation target for the Patching Heaven Lineage.

At that time, there were already whispers secretly suggesting Ye Yune was an aged ox eating young grass.

But Ye Yune being a Nascent Soul cultivator, even if someone guessed it, without concrete evidence, they dared not speak.

”Who from the Weapon Dancing Sect was lucky enough to catch Vice Hall Master’s attention?”

Chen Mobai guessed as much, but still voiced his confirmation.

Ye Yune pointed at the invitation.

Chen Mobai opened it, and indeed, the groom’s name was Jiang Yuyuan.

”Vice Hall Master Ye, your wedding might attract quite a bit of criticism.”

After some thought, Chen Mobai spoke his mind.

Marrying a Nascent Soul cultivator with a lower realm practitioner, particularly Ye Yune being a female cultivator, may burden Jiang Yuyuan with the ’kept man’ label for life.

”I’m well aware of this, which is why I waited until he reached Core Formation before hosting the wedding. This way, the criticism will be less, and by then I’ll have the Kunpeng proponents report his talent, indicating he could possibly reach Nascent Soul Formation, making our marriage a proper match.”

How could it be a proper match? Besides being a Nascent Soul herself, Ye Yune’s father, the Beiming Master, is also a Nascent Soul, and even a disciple of the Spiritual Venerable, her background is connected to vast power.

Jiang Yuyuan, being the big star of the Immortal Gate, although retired in recent years, remains the ’brother’ in many female hearts.

Once the news of their marriage spreads, it’s surely set to cause an uproar in the Immortal Gate.

Jiang Yuyuan will be accused of being a kept man, Ye Yune will undoubtedly be seen as exerting power, employing underhanded rules on her subordinates, nurturing a pretty boy, and so on.

Even Chen Mobai suspects this.

”Vice Hall Master Ye, may I boldly ask, is your marriage based on true love?”

Having encountered Jiang Yuyuan several times at the Daoist Academy, Chen Mobai’s impression of him was rather positive.

So if Jiang Yuyuan isn’t wholeheartedly willing to marry Ye Yune, Chen Mobai feels it necessary to inquire, given his current position as head of the Weapon Dancing Sect.

”What do you mean by that? Of course, Yuyuan and I reciprocate each other’s feelings, unlike you, who just play around irresponsibly...”

Chen Mobai’s inquiry made Ye Yune arch her brows, visibly infuriated, causing her to retaliate.

”What do you mean by that, Vice Hall Master Ye may not think that just because your background is profound, I’m afraid to strike.”

Chen Mobai detests being slandered by others, his face darkened a bit.

”Hum, your affair with Meng Huang may escape others, but not me.”

Ye Yune’s words left Chen Mobai slightly uneasy, yet he was never one to weep before seeing his own grave.

Chen Mobai: ”Speak with evidence!”

Ye Yune snorted coldly: ”The traces are numerous. As the head of the Arts Department, my main concern lies with those Mysterious Sound Dao Seeds; it’s obvious to me that Meng Huang’s Original Yin is lost at a glance. Furthermore, I once investigated her exchange for Barrier Breaking Pill transactions, discovering a large sum of Good Deed Points issued by you to her. I have plenty of such evidence; do you want me to enumerate them?”

Chen Mobai: ”That can be evidence? It can only prove Meng Huang and I have a good relationship.”

Ye Yune: ”Legally speaking, it’s not enough for conviction, but if these are made public, how do you think the populace would view the matter?”

”Standing upright, I fear no slanted shadows,” Chen Mobai said righteously, but soon pivoted, ”Yet in such a case, Meng Huang would indeed be caught in a whirlpool of public opinion, so I hope Vice Hall Master Ye will refrain from mentioning it in the future.”

Caring for those around him comes naturally to Chen Mobai, Meng Huang barely reached Core Formation, if such things go public, she would certainly be ridiculed by Immortal Gate’s populace, viewing her as kept by him, the big shot.

Even Ye Yune had to wait until Jiang Yuyuan reached Core Formation before daring to publicize their marriage.

”Believe it or not, Yuyuan and I are true love; if not, the two of us wouldn’t walk the marriage path.”

Ye Yune, at this moment, reiterated emphatically.

”If it’s true love, then I naturally offer my blessings, wishing you happiness and longevity together.”

Thinking thoroughly, Chen Mobai considered how Jiang Yuyuan could wed Ye Yune could be seen as ancestors’ tomb emitting auspicious smoke.

Considering Ye Yune, although she’s older, she maintains exceptionally well, being in the prime of a woman’s beauty.

If Jiang Yuyuan marries her, in the future, he might even get an opportunity to use Kunpeng Lineage’s and Sea Territory’s resources for Nascent Soul Formation, which, in turn, is indeed beneficial for him.

Chen Mobai is quite aware of Meng Huang’s aptitude, and he holds little hope for her in achieving Nascent Soul Formation through the Shocking God Sonata.

But Jiang Yuyuan is undoubtedly a genius.

”When I get married to Yuyuan, I hope Vice Hall Master Chen can attend.”

At this moment, Ye Yune brought up this matter again.

”No problem.”

Chen Mobai thought for a while and nodded in agreement.

He already understood why Ye Yune wanted him to attend because Jiang Yuyuan graduated from the Weapon Dancing Sect. If Chen Mobai went, it would give the public an impression of an alliance between the Weapon Dancing Sect and the Kunpeng Lineage.

Moreover, it would make people think that Jiang Yuyuan had the support of Chen Mobai, thus minimizing the controversy of him being dependent, guiding public opinion towards understanding that the marriage involved higher-level political dealings.

For Jiang Yuyuan, Ye Yune had indeed put a lot of effort into this. No matter what happened in the past, it was likely true love now.

After Chen Mobai agreed, his relationship with Ye Yune suddenly became harmonious.

Both of them felt the other was someone of the same kind.

At the entrance, Zhuang Jialan had already driven over, but Chen Mobai asked her to wait a bit, chatting further with Ye Yune.

It was also at this time he learned that when he first arrived at Kaiyuan Hall, Ye Yune targeted him because of Meng Huang.

She thought since they were already together, they should properly announce it to the world.

Chen Mobai’s concealment of their relationship made him seem like a playboy, just wanting to have fun without responsibility.

However, as Chen Mobai’s cultivation level increased, Ye Yune gradually understood him.

The gap between the two was too significant to make their relationship public elegantly.

Especially since Ye Yune also revealed that Jiang Yuyuan had already started getting to know her during university days, which made Chen Mobai’s eyes twitch.

”I plan to handle the wedding low-key, but the Patching Heaven Lineage will undoubtedly target it, so if there’s a public opinion war, I hope Vice Hall Master Chen will have your Weapon Dancing Sect lend a hand.”

Finally, Ye Yune mentioned this, and Chen Mobai agreed without hesitation.

When he left by car, Chen Mobai informed Zhuang Jialan of the situation, and she was equally shocked.

”Note the time and remind me then.”

Chen Mobai left the invitation with Zhuang Jialan, who immediately nodded.

”There’s also one more thing, have our media prepare a bit. It’ll surely be lively, and I can announce at that time that I have a family.”

Chen Mobai spoke again, and Zhuang Jialan, due to her many years as a secretary, quickly understood.

”At that time, I will let others direct public discussions to focus on Vice Hall Master Ye and Jiang Yuyuan’s wedding, handling the public announcement of your family matter discreetly.”

Chen Mobai nodded in satisfaction and then inquired about recent affairs in the Hall of Orthodox Law.

Afterward, when Chen Mobai got home, he also went to check on Meng Huang.

With the use of Void Teleportation, he had already arrived at the top of Danxia Mountain.

Meng Huang, who was sitting in meditation, cultivating her pure spiritual power, looked up to see silver light flashing in the sky. The sight of Chen Mobai stepping out left her in awe, her mouth agape with shock.

”You... why are you here?”

She had been in seclusion at Danxia Mountain for Core Formation, cutting off all communication, so she didn’t know about Chen Mobai mastering Void Teleportation. She thought he had come to Red Sandstone City on his own accord.

”I sensed your inner hesitation. If this goes on, you might not ever take that step towards Core Formation, so I felt it necessary to come and help you take that crucial step.”

Through the perspective of his Formless Puppet, Chen Mobai observed Meng Huang’s retreat on Danxia Mountain. After many failed attempts at breaking through great realms, her confidence had been severely battered.

Every time she wanted to consume an elixir, visions of her Foundation Establishment and Core Formation failures would unavoidably surface.

She deeply feared another failure.

In her view, this was her last possible chance for Core Formation. Even with Chen Mobai as the Vice Hall Master of the Hall of Orthodox Law behind her, it was still impossible to break immortal sect rules to grant a Foundation Establishment practitioner a third Golden Elixir Spiritual Medicine.

With this mindset, Meng Huang was plagued with indecision, only daring to cultivate her essence, qi, and spirit daily, without daring to truly step forward.

”I’m sorry, I’m so useless.”

Meng Huang knew her mentality was wrong, seeing Chen Mobai come personally, she felt guilty for wasting his efforts, and even started to sob slightly.

”Take the elixir, I will protect you during your Core Formation process.”

Chen Mobai knew that nothing else he said would work; Meng Huang had completely lost confidence in herself, so he spoke in a commanding tone.

”But... what if I fail?”

Meng Huang’s voice trembled slightly.

Chen Mobai: ”I have never failed, and with me by your side, neither will you!”
