Chapter 1587 - 1588: Ling Shan
Chapter 1587: Chapter 1588: Ling Shan
The little girl was also startled by the other party and didn’t know what was happening. Why did the stone flash red, and she was about to be captured?
"Wait!"
Ye Mo immediately shouted, "She is a seal I crafted, not a Martial Artist!"
"A Charm Spirit? That’s even more unforgivable. A Charm Spirit that hasn’t even reached the Immortal Position Realm is just a waste of resources on the Open Heaven Continent, and you, as her owner, are even more unforgivable."
The guard said coldly. On the Open Heaven Continent, generally speaking, if a human-shaped talisman seal hasn’t reached the standard of the Immortal Position Realm, it is usually destroyed outright, not even sent to mine.
A Charm Spirit is created by a charm master, and they are the lowest existence, utterly incomparable to Martial Artists. Any First Rank Immortal Talisman Master can craft a Charm Spirit.
"I am not her master. She is my friend, my family. I have just arrived on the Open Heaven Continent and do not know the rules here, so I hope you can give us some leniency."
Ye Mo blocked in front of the little girl, looked at the aggressive guards, and couldn’t help but speak.
These guards in front of him were not something he feared, but this was Immortal Spirit City. As a Sub-Immortal Realm Martial Artist, causing trouble could leave him without anyone to save him.
"Leniency? Do you really think the Open Heaven Continent is a place for you rabble to come and go freely? Rules are rules. Arrest them! Capture them both."
The leading guard waved his arm, and the guards behind him immediately charged forward. Capturing someone discarded by the immortal world came with a reward, so they were naturally eager.
As Ye Mo watched the Martial Artists rushing towards him, his brow furrowed slightly, and he punched out directly. The terrifying force exploded, ignoring the opponent’s Power of Laws, and sent those guards flying.
Ye Mo’s current strength was comparable to a Middle-Ranked Immortal; these Lower-Ranked Immortals were no match for him.
"This? How is this possible?"
The leading guard exclaimed in surprise. His body moved, and his large hand transformed into wooden tendrils, attacking Ye Mo to seize him.
Ye Mo’s hands turned into dragon claws, and he grabbed all those wooden tendrils, gave a mighty pull, and the leading guard was immediately pulled over.
Boom!
In the next moment, Ye Mo punched again, sending that guard flying.
Ye Mo’s aura was like a dragon, instilling fear in those who guarded the Immortal Treasure Meeting, and he knocked them all down.
"Little girl, let’s go. It seems we can’t stay in this Immortal Spirit City any longer!"
Ye Mo said, pulling the little girl to leave.
However, at that moment, a large army approached from the distance, neatly arranged, at least a hundred strong, and each Immortal Spirit Army member had the strength of an Upper Immortal.
Leading them was a man who appeared to be in his twenties, exuding arrogance, accompanied by a slender, black-clad woman with a ponytail, looking extremely alluring.
"Ling Shan, there’s a fight over there. Let’s go and have a look!"
The man spoke with a hint of flattery in his voice.
This man, named Heaven’s Wall, was a supervisor in Immortal Spirit City, responsible for patrolling the city daily, and few in Immortal Spirit City dared to provoke him.
The woman called Ling Shan was the daughter of the city lord and a publicly acknowledged genius girl in Immortal Spirit City, the youngest special recruit of the Immortal Martial Academy, preparing to enter the academy this year. Even before entering, she was acknowledged as an Earth Tier goddess by the academy, receiving much admiration.
Heaven’s Wall was naturally among those admirers.
However, for some of the prominent family’s prodigies, Heaven’s Wall was nothing more than a toad. Despite being a supervisor in Immortal Spirit City, he rose to his position through merit, but they saw his pursuit of Ling Shan as a toad wanting to eat swan meat.
"I told you, don’t follow me!"
Ling Shan’s cold voice echoed.
"Ling Shan, Immortal Spirit City has been unstable lately. It’s rumored that many bandits might appear, possibly even abducting you. The city lord is currently in seclusion, and before he secluded, he specifically instructed me to protect you well."
Heaven’s Wall said with a smile.
Hearing this, Ling Shan fell silent. She knew of this matter too. Since her father went to Desperate Mountain Stronghold last time and eradicated a bunch of bandits, killing many Martial Artists cast out by the immortal world, those bandits often caused trouble in Immortal Spirit City for revenge. Otherwise, Heaven’s Wall wouldn’t be patrolling with a hundred Immortal Spirit Army members.
"Supervisor Heaven’s Wall, quickly capture those two!"
The guards from the Immortal Treasure Meeting, seeing Heaven’s Wall patrolling, immediately shouted loudly.
Heaven’s Wall frowned and waved his hand, and the Immortal Spirit Army behind him instantly surrounded Ye Mo and the little girl.
"What’s going on?"
Heaven’s Wall looked at Ye Mo and the little girl, still maintaining his lofty demeanor. Now that Ling Shan was in front of him, he naturally wanted to make a good impression.
The guard immediately got up, scampered over, and said, "Supervisor Heaven’s Wall, that girl is a Charm Spirit, over three thousand years old, but her cultivation hasn’t reached the Immortal Position Realm. According to the rules of the Open Heaven Continent, she should be executed outright. We wanted to capture her, but the man injured us instead."
"Oh?"
Heaven’s Wall exclaimed in surprise and looked at Ye Mo. After probing, he didn’t detect any Power of Laws on Ye Mo.
"A Sub-Immortal Realm Martial Artist able to injure so many Immortal Position Realm Martial Artists, indeed not bad."
Heaven’s Wall was surprised, then immediately said, "Hand over your Charm Spirit, and I won’t pursue the matter of you injuring those guards."
"Impossible!"
Ye Mo uttered three words. He knew very well that if he handed over the little girl, she would surely be executed.
"Just a Charm Spirit. Since she is your Charm Spirit, you must be a charm master. With your skills, you can craft a new Charm Spirit anytime."
Heaven’s Wall said flatly.
"The little girl is my family. Even if I can craft thousands of Charm Spirits, they won’t be her. However, I think their detection was inaccurate earlier. My little girl is actually a genuine Immortal Talisman, reaching the Immortal Position Realm’s level."
Ye Mo said flatly.
Upon hearing this, the little girl was moved. In the immortal world, Charm Spirits were indeed considered the lowest existence. Any Immortal Talisman Master could craft them, and most would use them as maidservants, treating them as mere helpers unless they crafted a powerful Charm Spirit that deserved a second glance.
"What nonsense are you spouting? Our Immortal Spirit Stone clearly reacted; it’s simply impossible for it to be wrong."
The leading guard said.
"Is that so?"
Ye Mo showed a sly smile and said, "How about this? Let’s test again in front of the supervisor. If the little girl truly hasn’t reached the Immortal Position Realm, then you can act according to the rules, and I’ll give you the One Million Immortal Stones on me. If the little girl has reached the Immortal Position Realm, then you will let us go."
"Let’s do it!"
The leading guard couldn’t help but agree. It was impossible for the Immortal Spirit Stone to be wrong, even if checked a hundred times. Hence, he agreed without hesitation.
