#278 - Chapter 278 The Legendary Mother Earth - Qi Refining Level 3000, Accepting The Empress As A Disciple At The Beginning

That night.

Mu Qianyuan quietly led Ye Kong and his daughter to the stargazing platform of the Star Observation Pavilion.

Tea and pastries had already been prepared on it.

“I’m sorry, there were too many people during the day, and it wasn’t convenient for me to greet you,” Mu Qianyuan apologized first.

There were many people during the day, and as a star observer, if he greeted Ye Kong, it would arouse suspicion.

“It’s nothing, but did you bring us up here so late because you have something to say?” Ye Kong asked.

“I just invited you up for a cup of tea and to see my daughter by the way,” Mu Qianyuan said with a light smile, looking at Mu Qianqian.

As a star observer, he could clearly feel that the thread of fate on his daughter had disappeared.

This gradually stiffened Mu Qianyuan's smile.

I'm your father, and you're not pouring tea for me?

“Qianqian, it’s been a long time since you’ve seen your father, you can chat and catch up,” Ye Kong said to Mu Qianqian.

“Dad, long time no see,” Mu Qianqian greeted.

“Yes, long time no see,” Mu Qianyuan nodded slightly.

And then, there was nothing else.

Mu Qianqian didn't know what to talk about, so she simply didn't talk.

Mu Qianyuan looked at how much Mu Qianqian had changed and felt a little emotional.

It had only been half a year since she was sent to逍遥 Peak, and she didn't recognize her father anymore when she came back.

Alas, what kind of magic does逍遥 Peak have?

“Qianqian, don’t stand, sit down,” Mu Qianyuan said.

“Disciples do not sit with their teachers, and children do not stand alongside their fathers,” Mu Qianqian said, this was the most basic etiquette.

“You used to be so unruly, how are you so well-behaved now?” Mu Qianyuan was a little surprised.

Ye Kong looked back at Mu Qianqian and said, “In my逍遥 Peak, there are not so many rules.”

Mu Qianqian heard this, walked to the edge of the stargazing platform, and went to play with the sea of clouds.

She preferred playing with the sea of clouds to pouring tea and water.

Ye Kong and Mu Qianyuan were drinking tea when the Earth Mother suddenly flew over and sat next to Ye Kong.

“Drinking tea without calling me,” the Earth Mother picked up a teacup and poured herself a cup.

Ye Kong slapped the Earth Mother's hand unhappily and said unhappily, “No manners.”

Mu Qianyuan looked at the Earth Mother and Ye Kong and couldn't help but ask, “This is… your Dao companion?”

“No,” Ye Kong shook his head and explained, “She is a glutton who mooches food and drink, you can call her Ye Ling.”

The Earth Mother was immediately unhappy when she heard this.

“My name is Ling, I don’t have the surname Ye, can you not give people surnames casually? Even Hong didn’t dare to call me Hong Ling back then,” the Earth Mother said unhappily.

“Why?” Ye Kong asked in confusion.

The Earth Mother glanced at Ye Kong and said, “Do you want to conquer the earth?”

Giving a surname would incur karma.

The Earth Mother herself was the spirit of the earth, and if Ye Kong gave her a surname, then the earth would also change its surname to Ye, which was contrary to common sense.

So the Earth Mother had always opposed Ye Kong giving her a surname.

It wasn't that the surname was bad, but that it couldn't exist.

When Hong gave her a name back then, it caused an earthquake that almost destroyed the world.

Ye Kong looked at the Earth Mother and then remembered that she was the spirit of the earth, the incarnation of the earth.

“Sorry, I’ve been with you for so long, I thought you were human,” Ye Kong said with a light smile.

“I was originally human,” the Earth Mother said unhappily.

Mu Qianyuan looked at Ye Kong and the Earth Mother arguing and was very puzzled.

He didn't understand what Ye Kong and the Earth Mother were talking about.

Their words made her feel confused and completely clueless.

“It’s a pity that you two are not together,” Mu Qianyuan said from the side.

“It’s impossible for us to be together,” the Earth Mother said.

“Yes,” Ye Kong nodded, he didn’t want to become a man who conquered the earth.

Mu Qianyuan was very confused when he heard this, how was it impossible?

For cultivators to become Dao companions, it was nothing more than being suitable, liking each other, and so on.

He looked at Ye Kong and the Earth Mother, and they seemed suitable in every way, and their personalities were similar when they argued.

It should be easy to get along with.

But this was a private matter between the two, and Mu Qianyuan couldn't ask any more questions.

“Ling, when you came out, were you discovered?” Ye Kong asked.

“Joke, who can discover me?” the Earth Mother couldn’t help but laugh.

With her strength, she could even hide from the Great Emperor, let alone the mere sect masters.

Ye Kong nodded, that was true.

After the Earth Mother drank a few cups of tea, she stood on the stargazing platform, looking up at the stars in the sky.

“Old Blind Man, you really know how to enjoy yourself,” the Earth Mother looked at the endless starry sky, staring at a faint flickering star.

Mu Qianyuan frowned slightly when he heard the words Old Blind Man, but he couldn't remember who it was.

“Your Star Observation Pavilion observes the sun, moon, and stars above, and looks at the mountains, rivers, and rivers below, formulating time and maintaining the stability of one continent, is that the purpose on the surface?” the Earth Mother suddenly asked.

Mu Qianyuan was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled and said, “This has always been the original intention of my Star Observation Pavilion.”

“Original intention my ass, the real purpose of the Star Observation Pavilion is to absorb the luck of each continent,” the Earth Mother said unhappily.

Mu Qianyuan was stunned when he heard this, how could she know this secret that even the Great Emperor didn't know?

He himself was told this only when his old master was about to die.

Mu Qianyuan was shocked, he realized that he had underestimated the Earth Mother.

The Earth Mother looked at the stars flickering in the sky and slowly said, “I have to say, Old Blind Man succeeded.”

Today, there are thirteen continents in the world, except for the Bliss Continent, which has become a dead continent without a Star Observation Pavilion, the other twelve continents have Star Observation Pavilions, including the Myriad Monster Continent.

Old Blind Man's purpose had been achieved.

The Star Observation Pavilion was ostensibly maintaining the peace, tranquility, and order of the cultivation world's continent, but secretly it was absorbing the luck of each continent.

It was just that the absorption was very slow.

Mu Qianyuan had to become serious when he heard the Earth Mother repeatedly mention Old Blind Man.

He had been unable to figure out who the Old Blind Man the Earth Mother was talking about was.

How did that Old Blind Man know the secret of his Star Observation Pavilion?

This secret was hidden by the Star Observation Pavilion in the secrets of heaven, and even a powerful Great Emperor could not窥探.

“Who is that Old Blind Man you are talking about?” Mu Qianyuan couldn’t help but ask.

“Who? Yan!” the Earth Mother said directly.

“I’m leaving, Ye Kong, your disciple is looking for you,” the Earth Mother then said.

“Okay,” Ye Kong nodded, and took Mu Qianqian back.

Mu Qianyuan was stunned in place, constantly thinking about the Yan the Earth Mother was talking about.

“Yan… is…”

“Could it be the ancestor Yan?” Mu Qianyuan couldn’t help but think of the Star Observation Pavilion’s ancestor—Yan.
