"True feelings?"
Upon hearing such words normally, Ji Lianxing would merely scoff.
Most men in this world have honeyed tongues and daggers hidden in their smiles, speaking sweetly yet driven purely by lust.
Once a new target is found, their affections quickly shift, and so-called vows become as empty as mirror flowers and water moons.
The more passionate they seem at first, the colder they are when their hearts change.
Yet now, looking at the man before her, she felt somewhat shaken.
"You’re serious? Do you know what the Azure Darkness Seal is?"
"Of course I know, and I’ve used it too."
Chen Mo injected Primordial Qi into it, the square seal transformed, unfolding like a scroll, countless azure characters surging like a tide.
"As long as sufficient samples and resources are provided, it can deduce cultivation techniques in any set direction, continually enhancing their grade..."
"This means having a portable Book Collection Pavilion, where various cultivation techniques are practically inexhaustible... It’s also the foundational artifact of your Moon Brilliance Sect, is it not?"
Ji Lianxing gazed at the seal, a glimmer of longing in her eyes.
Chen Mo was right, the reason Moon Brilliance Sect could rank among the top ten sects wasn’t just due to strong capabilities, but mostly for possessing thousands of cultivation techniques covering nearly every form of practice, thereby attracting a vast number of cultivators to join.
This allowed the Moon Brilliance Sect’s power to rapidly expand, quickly becoming a dominant force in Qing Province!
However, such rapid development also brought about disadvantages, the sect’s internal environment became a mix of scum and excellence, factions formed atop each mountain, with constant intrigue and changing orders...
The ten-member Elder Hall could spawn over twenty group discussions.
The downfall of Moon Brilliance Sect initially began with someone acting on their own accord, leveraging the sect’s power to slay an envoy who came for negotiations, completely enraging Her Majesty the Consort...
By the time Ji Lianxing emerged from her closure, the mountain gate was already in ruins...
"As long as we reclaim this artifact, the sect could see a revival!"
"But..."
"Will he really hand over such a precious treasure to me? Isn’t there a catch?"
Ji Lianxing suppressed her restless emotions and frowned, "Are you sure you’re using this Azure Darkness Seal just to exchange for the freedom of Manzhi and Hensui?"
"That’s right."
"In your view, such an act seems foolish, even absurd."
"But to me, they are the true treasures, this damn Azure Darkness Seal is nothing compared to them."
"That, is the difference between us."
Chen Mo’s lips curled into a mocking and playful smile, his voice faint, "Weren’t you struggling to understand earlier why they so decisively ’betrayed’ you and chose to stand by my side?"
"The reason is simple..."
"Because, I would unwaveringly choose them as well."
Ji Lianxing’s pupils lightly trembled at his words, her hand within her sleeve secretly clenched.
