759 Martial Arts Grandmaster Hall

The two rushed over immediately when they found out that Mo Wen had returned.

"Supreme Sect Leader, please forgive your subordinate for his uselessness." Hu Tianfeng bowed in greeting from afar. There was a hint of shame in his eyes. He had tried his best to treat Shen Jing after finding out who she was. However, he had not succeeded.

Mo Wen shook his head. He had not managed to find the cause of the problem either, so he would not expect Hu Tianfeng to be able to do anything. He looked at Lin Qing and asked, "What happened?"

"Shen Jing was indeed poisoned by sodium cyanide at first. But I am not sure what happened afterward. It is all my fault. I knew that something was happening with Shen Jing's family but I did not pay attention to it. That's why something like this happened."

Lin Qing lowered her head in shame. She and Shen Jing were best friends who had known each other for many years. She knew about Shen Jing's family situation. However, she had never thought that something like this would happen. She had thought that no matter how much Shen Jing's adoptive parents disliked her, they would not be so vicious.

She went to find Shen Jing's parents immediately after receiving news of Shen Jing's attempt to commit suicide by taking poison. Then, she sent Shen Jing to Jing Hua First Military Hospital by using her connections. If this was regular sodium cyanide poisoning, she had faith that they would be able to save her as long as she was not dead.

However, the situation that followed was beyond everyone's expectations. The doctors in the hospital could not find any toxins in Shen Jing's body. Even the miracle physician from the Ghost Physicians Hu Clan they found could not do anything. There was nothing that could be done.

"I'm sorry."

Mo Wen's expression was grave. Lin Qing could not help but feel uneasy. Her face was slightly pale. Even Mo Wen could not do anything. Was Shen Jing really going to be in big trouble?

"This is not your fault." Mo Wen shook his head and slowly reigned in his emotions. He said lightly, "Don't worry, even though I can't tell why Shen Jing is like this, it seems like it is not much of a threat. Perhaps she is in a state that we all do not know about. As for how long this state will persist, we can only resign ourselves to fate."

He sighed. Actually, Shen Jing was fine and was very healthy. There must be a reason why she was comatose.

"What do you plan to do?" Lin Qing asked.

"I'll take her away from the hospital. You all don't have to bother yourselves with anything else," Mo Wen said lightly.

"Then…What shall we do when Shen Jing's adoptive parents ask about her?"

Lin Qing hesitated. Even though Shen Jing's adoptive parents had gone a little too far, they had still brought Shen Jing up. There were feelings between all parties involved to a certain extent. After finding out that Shen Jing had consumed poison, they had immediately sent her to the hospital. They had even done something to send her to Jing Hua City.

But no matter what, as Shen Jing's adoptive parents, they had the right to know. It would not be easy to hide from her adoptive parents that Shen Jing had been taken away.

"Just tell them that their daughter is dead," Mo Wen said coldly as he turned to leave the hospital expressionlessly. If they had not brought Shen Jing up and sent her to university, he would not let this go so easily. Since they forced Shen Jing to commit suicide through poisoning herself, then they should just take it that their daughter has died.

Lin Qing looked at Mo Wen's retreating back and shook her head helplessly. This man was really assertive.

The discharge procedures were very straightforward thanks to Han Jiangong dealing with it personally. Mo Wen found a car and brought Shen Jing back to the courtyard in the school. The courtyard was very big. It was big enough for him to settle her there.

"Let me take care of Teacher Shen Jing in the future," Qin Xiaoyou said softly as she stood behind Mo Wen. She watched as Mo Wen specially set out a room for Shen Jing. Even though she did not know why Mo Wen had taken Teacher Shen Jing home and not leave her in the hospital for treatment, she fully supported all his decisions.

"She just wants to sleep quietly. Leave her alone." Mo Wen shook his head. Shen Jing did not need someone to take care of her in her current condition. She could sleep for a few years, a few decades, even a few centuries without eating. This state was like inedia, but even more amazing than that. That was because Shen Jing was completely pure, devoid of any filth both inside and outside. He could not detect any filth on her at all.

There would not be any filth or mess even if she slept for a hundred years.

Qin Xiaoyou nodded uncertainly.

They walked out of the courtyard. There was someone sitting quietly in a wicker chair in the courtyard. The person had gotten a pot of tea from somewhere and was drinking it.

The person was dressed in white and had an ethereal aura. The person's features were exquisite. Even Mo Wen had rarely seen anyone with such exquisite features. The oddest thing was that one could not tell the person's gender at a glance. The person had a stunning and androgynous face. If he were a man, he would be the most handsome man in the world. And if she were a woman, she was definitely the most beautiful woman in the world.

These two conflicting extremes appeared on one person at the same time.

The courtyard was usually occupied by only Qin Xiaoyou and Mo Wen. Others rarely visited. The sudden appearance of another person shocked Qin Xiaoyou. However, Mo Wen seemed as if he already knew this would happen. He sat down in front of that person expressionlessly.

"I did not expect that you had gotten to this stage in such a short time."

The person in white stretched out long slender fingers and placed a purple sand teapot in front of Mo Wen. Then, the person poured him a cup of hot tea lazily.

This person was none other than the mysterious Mo Qingtian.

"Why have you come to find me?" Mo Wen asked lightly. He had already sensed Mo Qingtian's appearance the moment he appeared. The only thing that surprised Mo Wen was that Mo Qingtian had only just returned to Jing Hua City. Why had he come to look for him?

"With your current abilities, you can join the Martial Arts Grandmaster Hall in Huatian Palace. Are you interested in the Martial Arts Grandmaster Hall?"

Mo Qingtian's lips curled upwards in a seductive smile as he looked at Mo Wen curiously.

He had thought that the young man was only slightly talented. However, he was but just mortal. He had never understood why his elder sister was so interested in Mo Wen and now admired her for her foresight. His elder sister was way better at him at judging people. This pace in cultivation was unusual, even in the immortal cultivation world. Furthermore, Mo Wen was a young man who was born in the main space.

"Martial Arts Grandmaster Hall?"

Mo Wen raised his eyebrows. He only knew that there were four main palace halls in Huatian Palace. There were many executors in each of the palace halls. It was his first time hearing about the Martial Arts Grandmaster Hall.

"Just as it is named, the Martial Arts Grandmaster Hall is a department that specializes in taking in martial arts grandmasters. Everyone in the hall is a martial arts grandmaster. Or perhaps, they are warriors who are equipped with the abilities of martial arts grandmasters. Even though you are not yet a martial arts grandmaster in terms of your cultivation level, your abilities are beyond that of ordinary warriors. You can join the Martial Arts Grandmaster Hall," Mo Qingtian said lightly.

Mo Wen was shocked when he heard that. Mo Qingtian could tell his cultivation levels by just looking at him. It was true that his cultivation was only at the intermediate stage of the Golden Elixir Realm. However, many people mistook him for a powerful martial arts grandmaster. Even Tan Qiyue, who was in the second martial arts grandmaster realm could only vaguely sense that he had not entered the ranks of martial arts grandmasters. He was not as certain as Mo Qingtian.

No one should have been able to tell his cultivation levels. Could Mo Qingtian tell?

Mo Wen looked at Mo Qingtian in surprise and doubt. His eyes twinkled with hesitation.

"Don't be surprised. Huatian Palace has many hidden dragons. It is much more complex than you imagine. Even if I can't tell anything, someone would be able to. There is still a long path ahead of you. It is very long. I can only ask you now, are you willing to join the Martial Arts Grandmaster Hall?"

Mo Qingtian played with the purple sand cup in his hands. There was a smile on his lips that one could not decipher.

"You are indeed not as simple as you appear to be."

Mo Wen smiled and then picked up his teacup and took a sip. He had always felt that Mo Qingtian was odd but did not know why. It was as if there were many things that did not make sense. He seemed to have guessed something now.

"What benefits are there to joining the Martial Arts Grandmaster Hall?" Mo Wen asked straightforwardly. He was not interested in doing something that would not benefit him.

"You must be the only one in the world who would ask something like this."

Mo Qingtian smiled when he heard that. He said in a rather confused manner, "Did you know, the ancient martial arts world is so big. In the inner worlds, there are plenty of martial arts grandmasters. They all try their hardest to join the Martial Arts Grandmaster Hall. Even some martial arts grandmasters in the third stage are trying all sorts of things to join the Martial Arts Grandmaster Hall. Did you think anyone can join the Martial Arts Grandmaster Hall?"

He felt rather helpless. Any other martial arts grandmaster would have been overjoyed by his suggestion today. Mo Wen, however, was trying to negotiate. Did he not know that the Martial Arts Grandmaster Hall of Huatian Palace was the sacred grounds of the martial arts world in all of Hua Xia? Furthermore, he was not a martial arts grandmaster yet, and he had already gotten such a chance. If the other martial arts grandmasters found out about it, they would be deathly jealous.

Mo Qingtian wanted to say that giving Mo Wen such an opportunity was already giving him an under the counter deal. How could Mo Wen still pick at such an opportunity?

"Stop it with the bullsh*t and just tell me the benefits."

Mo Wen could not be bothered to listen to Mo Qingtian's nagging. He did not know what kind of place the Martial Arts Grandmaster Hall was, and he was not interested in finding out. He just wanted to know what kind of benefits he would be able to get should he join it.

He was not stupid. There would definitely be a corresponding responsibility that he had to bear after he joined the Martial Arts Grandmaster Hall. If it was not attractive enough, he would not be interested in joining.

"The Martial Arts Grandmaster Hall of Huatian Palace can increase the chances of a martial arts grandmaster becoming an immortal by 50%. It can increase the chances of a martial arts grandmaster breaking through into another realm by 50%. In past centuries, 50 percent of those martial arts grandmasters who successfully became an immortal came from the Martial Arts Grandmaster Hall of Huatian Palace. 30% of martial arts grandmasters who broke into the second and third martial arts grandmaster realm came from there as well."

"These figures come not only from the ancient martial arts world. It includes everyone, including the heretic forces and hidden forces," Mo Qingtian said lightly. There were of course reasons why Huatian Palace could become the strongest power in the world. Most of the ancient martial arts practitioners in the ancient martial arts world were in Huatian Palace. To the regular powers, the heretic forces should not be underestimated. However, before Huatian Palace, the heretic forces were just like street rats. They could only hide in the dark and do little tricks.

Mo Wen breathed in sharply when he heard that. Increases the chances of becoming an immortal by 50%. What kind of concept was that? It was terrifying if the heretic and hidden forces were included in these figures!
