Chapter 139: Ch 139- Mu Shaobei

Mu Qingying smiled and explained, "Yes, Dad. When Mo Yuan was still in Dong Hai Base, I invited him to join the Martial Hall but he rejected me."

Hearing this, Mo Yuan smiled awkwardly and rubbed the back of his head.

"I wasn’t thinking about joining any organization at that time."

Mu Qingying continued, "Then, after he came to Cang Lan Base, he defeated Qin Sheng at the Qin Dojo and quickly became the talk of the town. I heard about him again and met him around that time."

"Oh, I never knew there was so much history between you two."

Mu Bai laughed.

Then his expression suddenly became serious.

"The Qin Family didn’t bully you afterward, right? Qin Sheng has quite a reputation for causing trouble."

"No, no. Nothing like that happened," Mo Yuan quickly replied.

"Haha, good."

Mu Bai’s expression relaxed.

"Come on, let’s eat."

The three of them began eating.

The atmosphere was relaxed and they talked about small things while enjoying the meal. Mu Bai occasionally asked Mo Yuan a few questions and Mo Yuan answered casually.

After they finished eating, Mu Bai suddenly stood up.

"Alright, I won’t disturb you kids anymore."

He smiled and walked away, leaving the two of them alone.

For a moment, the room became quiet.

There was a slight awkwardness between Mo Yuan and Mu Qingying.

Finally, Mu Qingying spoke.

"Mo Yuan, I really never expected you to be this talented. If I had known about your strength back then, I might have really forced you to join our family."

"Haha, well, I told you before that I didn’t have any plans to join a family or organization at that time."

"Still..."

Mu Qingying sighed.

"Forget it. Tell me, why did you come here?"

Her tone returned to how it had been before, making Mo Yuan feel more comfortable.

Mo Yuan smiled.

"I came here because I wanted to thank you for the information you provided during the beast tide. It helped me quite a lot."

Mu Qingying smiled.

"It was nothing. On the other hand, I should be thanking you. You saved so many humans during the beast tide."

"Haha, it was nothing."

Mo Yuan waved his hand.

Mu Qingying looked at him for a moment before saying, "I heard from Dad that you also obtained a quota for the Secret Realm."

"Yes. I should be able to enter without participating in the selection tournament."

"Of course. For someone like you, participating in the tournament would be like bullying children."

"Hahaha, there’s no need to put it that way."

Mu Qingying chuckled.

"Then, do you want to team up with me for the Secret Realm? We can explore it together. Bai Ningning will also be coming. With the three of us working together, we might find some good treasures."

Mo Yuan thought about it for a moment.

"That sounds great but I prefer working alone."

"Oh, that’s fine."

Mu Qingying did not seem disappointed.

"Then we can still travel together. When the Secret Realm opens, we’ll leave together and once we’re inside, you can do whatever you want. We won’t restrict you."

"Okay, then."

Mo Yuan nodded.

He suddenly remembered something.

"By the way, where is your brother, Mu Shaobei?"

He could not help but become curious about Mu Shaobei’s talent.

"Oh, him?"

Mu Qingying smiled.

"He’s probably cultivating right now. If you want to meet him, we can go there. He also wants to see you. After hearing about you, he was very shocked that someone your age could be this strong."

"Never mind."

Mo Yuan shook his head.

"I don’t want to disturb his cultivation. I can meet him another time."

He had already decided to visit him later anyway.

For now, there was no need to disturb another cultivator while he was cultivating.

After talking for a while, Mo Yuan finally stood up and said "Okay I’ll see you later then"

"Okay" replied Mu Qingying

But just was about to leave the living room, when he suddenly heard a voice behind him.

"Wait, Mo Yuan!"

Hearing someone call his name, Mo Yuan stopped and turned his head. A young man was walking out from another room.

The moment Mo Yuan saw him, he instinctively activated his Copy and Paste Talent.

Soon, information appeared in his mind.

Human: Mu Shaobei

Cultivation Talent: Ultimate Grade

True Sight: Peak Grade

Bare-Handed Combat: Peak Grade

Mo Yuan’s eyes widened slightly.

For the first time, he had seen someone with two special talents and both of them were Peak Grade.

Most humans did not even possess a single special talent. Even those who had one were usually at the Standard or Superior Grade. Seeing two Peak Grade special talents on the same person was extremely rare.

’So this must be Mu Shaobei.’

Mo Yuan looked at the young man in front of him and quietly sensed his cultivation.

Peak Origin Soul Realm.

’Not bad. As expected from one of the top geniuses of Cang Lan Base.’

Mu Shaobei looked young, only a little older than Mo Yuan. He had black hair and a calm expression. However, there was a sharpness hidden in his eyes that made it clear he was not an ordinary cultivator.

Mo Yuan looked at him and said, "You must be Mu Shaobei."

Mu Shaobei smiled and nodded.

"Yes, I am and you must be Mo Yuan, right?"

Mo Yuan nodded.

Mu Shaobei had been cultivating earlier when his attendant came to inform him that Mo Yuan had arrived at the Mu Family. The moment he heard the news, he immediately stopped cultivating.

How could he miss the chance to meet someone like Mo Yuan?

Recently, Mo Yuan’s name had spread throughout Cang Lan Base.

A fifteen-year-old cultivator who, killed Peak Realm beasts during the beast tide and saved an entire base.

Mu Shaobei had been curious about him for a long time but the moment he stood in front of Mo Yuan, his expression changed slightly.

He could feel an invisible pressure coming from Mo Yuan’s body.

It was not the pressure of cultivation.

Instead, it felt like the pressure of a terrifying beast that had gone through countless battles.

Mo Yuan looked younger than him but the aura around him was far more intense than he had expected.

’Father really wasn’t exaggerating about him.’

Mu Shaobei’s eyes became serious.

He had originally thought the rumours were somewhat exaggerated but now that he had met Mo Yuan himself, he realized they might actually be understating his strength.

Mo Yuan noticed the change in Mu Shaobei’s expression but did not think much about it.

He simply smiled and said, "It’s nice to meet you."

Mu Shaobei also smiled.

"Likewise. I’ve heard quite a lot about you recently."
