Chu Mo wouldn't possibly know about the actions of the Zhuge Family, as he had already left the Illusory God Lake and quietly returned to Illusory God City.
The entire process went smoothly. The Illusory God Lake, which caused people to pale at the mention of it, seemed to Chu Mo to be nothing more than a normal body of water. There was nothing peculiar about it, let alone any danger.
Chu Mo couldn't help but find it strange. Why did everyone say that the Illusory God Lake was dangerous? It seemed quite ordinary to him.
The population in Illusory God City was notably larger than before, and many people were discussing the significant event that had recently occurred.
Chu Mo had changed his appearance once again, disguising himself as a young man in his twenties.
He found a money-exchange and traded two supreme Heavenly Crystals for a large stack of mid-grade Heavenly Crystals, then casually picked an inn and checked in.
The first thing he did after entering his room was to take out the communication tablet. He wanted to see how far this event had spread.
There were a lot of messages on the tablet, most of them speculations from people.
After perusing the information for a while, Chu Mo concluded: A real war has not broken between the Zhuge Family and Lingdan Hall.
The two major powers from the Heavenly Realm seemed very restraint, even retracting their own descendants from the conflict in order to avoid larger clashes.
Chu Mo thought about it and then understood.
Lingdan Hall as it stands, with eight of Emperor Feng Chun's predecessors having retired from worldly affairs and pursuing the Supreme way for many years, appears to be supported solely by Feng Chun. While a fall seems inevitable, they still have a profound background!
If Lingdan Hall was treated like a soft target that could be bullied at will, it would be nothing less than seeking death.
The Zhuge Family might be powerful, but in the elixir business, they can't compete with Lingdan Hall at all; there's a gap in levels. From a strength perspective, they also don't have the confidence to suppress Lingdan Hall entirely. If a real war were to break out, it would certainly result in mutual destruction.
Under such circumstances... wouldn't that benefit others?
At this point, Chu Mo finally heaved a sigh of relief. He could guess that the Zhuge Family and Lingdan Hall must have reached some sort of agreement, or at least...formed some tacit understanding. No intense conflict would occur in the short term.
Although he could understand the choices of both sides, Chu Mo felt slightly disappointed at heart.
As for the account between him and Liu Yun, it appears that he reaped the benefits. Regardless, he is ultimately a man.
But Chu Mo's deep-seated hatred for Zhuge Changping in his heart was no less than that for Liu Yun.
"Well...Zhuge Changping, even if they have spared you, I will not let you go!"
Chu Mo muttered to himself, then got up and walked out of the inn, heading toward the Illusory God Temple.
Soon, Chu Mo saw the Realm Spirit.
"Zhuge Changping is already dead, you can let go of your thoughts of revenge."
"Liu Yun is a good girl, I used some means to strengthen her body with thunder. Her future achievements will be boundless."
"You should keep a low profile for some time, and focus on cultivation."
Without waiting for Chu Mo to speak, the Realm Spirit directly deliver these messages, leaving Chu Mo dumbfounded.
"What do you mean?" Chu Mo looked at the Realm Spirit, "Zhuge Changping is dead? How do you know?"
The Realm Spirit glanced at Chu Mo, "What's the big deal about knowing such a thing?"
"Are you sure? Did Zhuge Changping... truly die? Didn't he resurrect in the real world after dying in the Illusory Realm?" Chu Mo stared at the Realm Spirit.
"He died in his own world, and moreover, he was killed by order of his own father." The Realm Spirit warned, "When you enter the Heavenly Realm in the future, be wary of Zhuge Changchun, the master of the Zhuge Family. He's a truly ruthless figure who even killed his own wife and child. Nothing can stop him."
Chu Mo couldn't help but draw a cold breath, looking at the Realm Spirit. He didn't bother to ask him how he knew about what was happening in the real world, "Why would Zhuge Changchun do this?"
"The Zhuge Family currently doesn't have the power to fight with Lingdan Hall. To quell Lingdan Hall's rage, they could only sacrifice the little bastard." The Realm Spirit said indifferently.
"Quell the rage of Lingdan Hall..." Chu Mo repeated softly, "So the real strategy... is hidden."
"What else did you think?" The Realm Spirit glanced at Chu Mo, "You're a lucky one, being able to win over the little princess of Lingdan Hall..."
"Hey!" Chu Mo quickly protested, "What do you mean win over?"
"Isn't it? In that girl's eyes, besides your talent in alchemy, what other value do you have?" The Realm Spirit sneered, "She's not someone who would disregard her reputation for the sake of life."
"Seems like you understand her well?" Chu Mo rolled his eyes.
The Realm Spirit indifferently said, "I know every person who enters the Illusory Realm quite well."
"... "Chu Mo had a shocked expression as he looked at the Realm Spirit, and again asked a question that he had been curious about, but the Realm Spirit had never answered, "Who are you exactly? What kind of world... is the Illusory Realm?"
The Realm Spirit looked at Chu Mo and said, "Liu Yun is a good girl, remember to treat her well in the future!"
"I'm asking you something else..." Chu Mo glared at the Realm Spirit.
The Realm Spirit lazily said, "Who I am isn't important, nor does it matter what kind of world the Illusory Realm is, all you need to remember is that you will not be harmed here!"
Chu Mo suddenly remembered his own experience in Illusory God Lake, where he walked as if on flat ground. His eyes revealed a complex color as he looked at the Realm Spirit and said, "This has something to do with my parents, doesn't it?"
The Realm Spirit made a face, "You're thinking too much!"
"Why must you keep it from me? I'm not so impulsive nor fragile. Even if you tell me, what could happen?" There was a hint of pain and pleading on Chu Mo's face .
The Realm Spirit remained unmoved and shook his head, "There's nothing I can tell you."
"Alright..." Chu Mo lowered his head in a somewhat dejected manner, his mood extraordinarily low.
Looking at Chu Mo, the Realm Spirit sighed in his heart: Kid, I am no longer the me from before. Even if I were, I would still have to die after saying these things! I am not afraid of death, but I can't die now. You haven't really grown up yet, how can I go die? How can I dare to forget Miss's entrustment to me? So, don't blame me for not telling you. It's not that I don't want to, it's that I can't.
"Do you have any friends in the Mortal Realm? People you can really trust?" The Realm Spirit hesitated a moment, then suddenly asked.
Chu Mo lifting his head and looked at the Realm Spirit, momentarily forgetting the sorrow in his heart, "What do you mean?"
"I can create a backdoor for you, allowing those friends of yours to enter Illusory Realm for cultivation. However... it can't be in Illusory God City. I will open up a special area for you..."
