Chapter 140: Current Situation
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
It had been an hour since Ye Mo had stepped into the formation. He still remained within, greatly astonishing the soldiers around the formation. This was an extremely rare situation.
Even the white-clothed man standing to the side was completely astonished. He had personally entered the formation and was naturally aware of how terrifying the formation was.
This was indeed a powerful formation. On the first test itself one was required to kill hundreds of beasts at the same strength as the challenger. How many people could survive this?
As for the second test, one had to defeat a warrior with similar cultivation level as the challenger. Moreover, that warrior would be the person closest to the challenger.
There was a reason why so few people had managed to pass the test.
“The kid isn’t dead, right?”
“Perhaps he is still trying hard to survive? After all, he needs to kill hundreds of beasts with similar strength as him during the first test.” “A strong and smart person might be able to separate the beasts using some ingenious method to stand a chance. But to kill all the beasts is completely impossible. Since I started guarding the gate, I have never seen anyone passing the first test.”
On the other hand, Cai Ling smiled bitterly as she watched on. She reckoned Ye Mo must have easily passed the first test.
After leaving some words to the driver, Cai Ling hopped off the carriage. With an expressionless face, she leisurely walked towards the gate.
Initially, everyone was focusing on the formation. But when they heard footsteps, they turned. Immediately after, all the soldiers knelt down. As for the white-clothed young man, he was immediately stunned by the unparalleled beauty he saw. Her indifference, her calm bearing, was that something that should exist in this world?
“Welcome back, castellan!” shouted all the soldiers.
The young soldier was grew extremely excited. She stealthily stole a glance at Cai Ling before lowering her head again.
The castellan of City of Daughters was one of the strongest powerhouses in the kingdom, a legend. Many girls considered her as their idol.
“Get up, everyone,” Cai Ling said.
The soldiers stood up. Then, the young soldier stepped forward and said, “Lord castellan, that man has been in the formation for an hour and is still stuck inside. Has something bad happened to him?”
“If something bad can happen to him, he won’t be called Ye Mo. Keep waiting. He will be out soon,” Cai Ling said.
“Ye Mo!” the young woman was startled and immediately asked in astonishment, “Lord castellan, you know each other?”
All the other soldiers around them and the white-clothed man were also greatly astonished. The guy in the formation knew the castellan? Was he here with the castellan?
The castellan of City of Daughters had actually brought a man to take the test so he could enter the City of Daughters? That was too shocking a news, right?
“Yes. On my travels, I eliminated the Freedom Valley and rescued the women kidnapped by them. They are all on the carriages over there. Send someone to settle them down in the city. Provide them with good food and clothings.”
“Yes, lord castellan!”
By the time the rescued women were led into the city, two hours had passed since Ye Mo had entered. He finally leisurely walked out, and not a single bead of sweat could be seen on his head.
One could say that he had easily passed the test.
The moment Ye Mo stepped out the formation, the seal on the air stopped spinning. Next, a ray of light shot from the seal towards the public ranking list.
Bang!
On the list, three names appeared.
The names were as followed.
Ye Mo, Ye Qing, and Li Tianqiong!
The names of those who had once passed the test would be shown on the ranking, yet only those who had passed could see the names on it.
“So father has once passed this test as well? He is indeed amazing. But who is that Li Tianqiong who is also capable of passing such a terrifying formation?”
The three names only shone for a split second before they vanished. Ye Mo turned around and saw a young woman in military uniform staring at him in shock. The white-clothed young man was also staring at Ye Mo in disbelief.
From Ye Mo’s aura, he was obviously only at Spirit Cultivating Seventh Realm. How had he so easily passed the test? That was too unbelievable!
“I can enter now, right?” Ye Mo asked with a smile.
“Yes, those who passed will be allowed entry. This is the rule set by lord castellan, also a rule reinforced by the imperial divine decree,” said the young woman as she nodded in astonishment.
“Castellan Cai Ling, the matter should not be delayed. It’s time you bring me in, right?” Ye Mo asked.
“Come with me.”
With Cai Ling leading the way, Ye Mo entered under everyone’s astonished gaze.
After many years, a man that could enter the City of Daughters had appeared again. This created a sensation within the city, and many women tending to their stalls were gazing at Ye Mo curiously.
Along the way, thousands of women were staring at Ye Mo. He was somewhat unaccustomed to this level of attention.
Although Cai Ling was the castellan, a large majority of the residents here had never seen her as well.
“Hero, can you bring me out of the city?” asked a beautiful young woman after she mustered a courage. She presented Ye Mo with a flower, expressing her love towards him.
“There is a rule in the City of Daughters that if a man appeared in the city, they are allowed to express their love towards the man and requesting to be brought out the city by that man,” Cai Ling explained.
Ye Mo waved his hand, rejecting apologetically.
Again and again, women confessed their loves towards Ye Mo. He received nearly 100 confessions, and each of the women was exceptionally beautiful.
“Everyone in City of Daughters is this beautiful?” Ye Mo asked curiously.
“They grew up drinking the water from the Goddess River. Of course they are beautiful,” Cai Ling said.
“The residents of this city sure are passionate!”
“Many of them have never seen a man before. Of course they are passionate. They also know that any man capable of entering this city are dragons among men. You can pick a few of them if you like,” Cai Ling said.
“Can I pick you?” Ye Mo asked with a smile.
“Do you want me to kill you right where you stand?” Cai Ling asked coldly.
“No, no. I’m just kidding. I know you will never fall in love with a man. You are simply trying to end the bloodline of your Nine Tails Clan. Fine, let’s talk about proper business,” Ye Mo’s expression turned solemn.
“Goddess’ Teardrop? I already agreed to that. With your capabilities, it won’t be hard for you to get it,” Cai Ling said.
“Not that.” Ye Mo shook his head and said, “Now that your strength has already dropped to Energy Shaping Ninth Realm, although ordinary people would not be able to see through that, how about your opponents with powerful strength? Will it be safe for you to return to the city?” After Ye Mo asked, Cai Ling appeared startled. She had indeed not considered that. She was no longer a Spirit Devour Realm powerhouse. How could she stabilize the situation within the City of Daughters?
