Chapter 210 Finally Reunited
Chapter 210 Finally Reunited
After the tribulation, Mo Ze's body underwent a tremendous change. His skin, which had been charred and damaged due to the tribulation, recovered rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if it had been re-tempered.
He could clearly feel that his physical functions had been enhanced like never before. His meridians had become stronger and wider, and spiritual energy flowed more smoothly and freely within them, like a rushing river, endless and ever-renewing.
The internal organs seemed to be infused with a powerful force, becoming more solid and strong. The perception of the surrounding spiritual energy became more acute. With each breath, spiritual energy flowed into the body joyfully, like swallows returning to their nests, and was quickly refined and absorbed.
Moreover, he naturally exudes an extraordinary charm, and his every move reveals composure and confidence.
Mo Ze emerged from the valley and flew towards Qingmu City. He was going to ask Tong Hui if there was any news about the merchant guild owner or Shu Shu. Little did he know, good news awaited him.
Arriving at the Lin Family Trading Company's branch in Qingmu City once again, he felt a faint sense of anticipation.
"Fellow Daoist, you've finally arrived. I've sent you many messages but haven't received a response." Tong Hui immediately stepped forward to inquire upon seeing him. After saying this, he quickly noticed the different aura emanating from Mo Ze and was shocked. "Fellow Daoist, you've broken through?"
Mo Ze nodded, a guess forming in his mind. "Did you call me because you have news?"
Tong Hui was still reeling from the shock of him breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage at such a young age when he heard his question, and his thoughts snapped back to reality.
“Yes, not long after you left last time, we received news from Linyang City that someone there was looking for you.” Tong Hui said, handing him the portrait.
After hearing Tong Hui's words, Mo Ze was certain that the person looking for him was Lin Shushu. Upon seeing that familiar portrait, his joy was overflowing. Shushu finally had news! He couldn't wait to see her.
Tong Hui was about to tell him that the girl who was looking for him was no longer in Linyang City, but before he could finish speaking, Mo Ze had already disappeared on the spot.
He was still young, and even with his high level of cultivation, he couldn't remain calm when faced with people and things he cared about... Before Tong Hui could finish his inner grumbling, he saw Mo Ze standing in front of him again.
"Manager Tong, I forgot to ask you earlier, is there any news about your master?" I'm about to see Shushu, and if I can bring her news about her father, she will be very happy.
"Well, to be honest, I'm also anxious to find our boss. This is the longest he's ever been out of contact," Tong Hui said somewhat dejectedly.
"Where was he last seen?" Mo Ze pressed.
“A month ago, the master heard that there was a woman in the territory of Yanyang Sect who resembled the lady. He immediately went to look for her, and then there was no news of her.”
"Yan Yang Sect," Mo Ze murmured these three words. After he met up with Shu Shu, the next step was to visit the number one sect on the Yan Yang Continent.
When Mo Ze rushed to Linyang City, he was told that Lin Shushu had left half a month ago, and he was immediately disappointed.
"Do you know where she went?" Mo Ze asked the Fang family.
So this is Shushu's fiancé. He's truly extraordinary, and his strength is unfathomable. The two are really a perfect match. Fang Siya secretly observed Mo Ze and then confirmed it in her heart.
"Aya, didn't Miss Lin ask you to pass on the communication talisman?" Fang Shao reminded his daughter, who was lost in thought.
"Oh, right, I almost forgot. Before Shushu left, she said that if you came looking for me, she should let me give you this communication talisman." Fang Siya quickly took out a communication talisman from her storage ring and handed it to Mo Ze.
After accepting the communication talisman, Mo Ze thanked the Fang family and left the City Lord's Mansion.
Once outside the city, in a secluded spot, Mo Ze crushed a communication talisman, and Lin Shushu's voice floated out.
“Mo Ze, I’ve found out about my mother’s family. They’re in Dongling City. If you come to Linyang City, come to Dongling City to find me. I’ll stay there for a month.”
Hearing Lin Shushu's message, Mo Ze's earlier disappointment finally subsided somewhat. Shushu had left half a month ago and should still be in Dongling City at the moment. Thinking of this, he immediately headed towards Dongling City.
At this time, Lin Shushu was indeed still in Dongling City. On that day, in the mural of the ancestral hall of the Yuan family's old residence, she saw the pearls around the necks of the Yuan family ancestors and had many guesses in her mind, but everything still had to be confirmed by Yuan Qing.
Dongling City is the location of the Yuan family. If Yuan Qing returns to the Yanyang Continent, he will definitely come here to pay respects to his ancestors. Therefore, Lin Shushu decided to stay here to look for clues.
Moreover, she had left a letter for Mo Ze, explaining that she would be staying here for a month. If Mo Ze safely made it to Linyang City, he would come here next.
Since that night, the Yuan family's old residence in the south of the city has become much quieter. At least no one in the city is talking about what happened there anymore. It seems that those who wanted to find out had already searched all the places they could, but still found nothing, so it has fallen silent.
Lin Shushu spent her days wandering around the city, and her evenings returning to the Yuan family home. Of course, she didn't stay there; instead, she entered her spatial dimension to cultivate. Without any other clues, she could only rely on this passive approach, hoping that Yuan Qing would one day appear.
That night, Lin Shushu was cultivating in her spatial realm when suddenly, she heard a noise outside. She immediately became alert. Could it be that someone was still determined to find something?
Soon, she sensed a familiar aura, though it was slightly different from the past, but it was enough for her to guess who it was.
After arriving in Dongling City, Mo Ze searched the city for a day but couldn't find Lin Shushu. He guessed that she must have come to the Yuan family, so he rushed over overnight.
Walking through the abandoned mansion, Mo Ze knew that if Shu Shu were here, she would find him very quickly.
Sure enough, after walking only a few steps, a figure suddenly appeared and rushed straight into his arms. Mo Ze hugged the person tightly, and the worries and anxieties of the past few days finally subsided.
In an instant, the location changed, and Lin Shushu brought Mo Ze into the space, raising her head to examine him closely. Upon closer inspection, she noticed the changes in Mo Ze.
"Mo Ze, you've broken through!" she exclaimed in delight. These past few days she had been worried sick about Mo Ze, but not only was he alright, he had also broken through – this was truly a joyous occasion.
Mo Ze smiled without saying a word. He wouldn't let Shu Shu know about his initial experiences, lest she feel sorry for him, even though he was fine now.
He pulled her into a tight embrace again, lowered his head, and kissed her lips, receiving a passionate response. The longing between them was finally eased. The two quietly enjoyed this tender moment, their unspoken affection spreading around them.
By the time the two parted, a considerable amount of time had passed.
"Shushu, I think I've found your father."
