I Have A Cultivation World Chapter 2323: 1053_2

Chen Mobai made a call to Meng Huang after he finished soothing Yan Bingxuan.

“Your original essence has been drained, so make recovery your priority. I have prepared some cultivation resources for you. Zijing is on her way to deliver them, so set your mind at ease regarding other matters…”

“Understood, Master.”

Meng Huang’s voice was laced with a hint of wariness as she answered.

As one of the performers of the Shocking God Sonata, she had been present on the Five Peaks Immortal Mountains and had personally witnessed the dispute between Chen Mobai and Bai Guang.

While the specifics of their argument remained a mystery to her, she had later overheard a private discussion between two Nascent Soul Cultivators, Ye Yun’e and Xiao Yuping, while the Arts Department was being organized. From them, she learned the shocking truth: Chen Mobai’s late wife, Shi Wanyu, was actually the reincarnated form of Bai Guang.

This revelation had left her utterly stunned.

In that moment, Meng Huang felt a wave of relief that she hadn’t followed through with her plan to have Chen Xiaohei address her as "Mother."

Had she done so, Bai Guang’s first sword strike would likely have been aimed directly at her throat upon her return.

Ever since that discovery, a lingering dread had haunted Meng Huang.

She lived in fear that her past entanglement would be unearthed by Bai Guang.

Despite her fierce ambition, her fear of death was far greater!

Chen Mobai found Meng Huang’s stiff responses somewhat strange, though he dismissed it as a consequence of her unhealed wounds and the severe depletion of her vital energy.

Recalling her contributions to the Law of the Five Tones, he softened his tone to offer comfort: “Stay in isolation at home for now. If you require anything, inform Zijing and she will assist you. Should any trouble arise, you may contact me directly.”

Meng Huang remained cautious, offering only a quiet hum in response.

Finding no further reason to linger, Chen Mobai ended the call.

Following the Death God’s Tribulation, Meng Huang had been permitted to return to her residence after a period of quarantine at the Welcoming Immortals Hotel, as she appeared mentally sound and had not fallen to inner demons.

Nevertheless, the Three Extremes Sage insisted on a year of home isolation as a safety precaution.

The Department of Law Enforcement was the authority tasked with monitoring those under such restrictions.

Upon resigning from his post as the Orthodox Law Hall Master, Chen Mobai had specifically instructed Hua Zijing to look after Meng Huang’s needs.

Due to her strictly enforced isolation, Meng Huang was still unaware that Chen Mobai had ascended to become the third saint of the Immortal Gate.

The following day.

The sound of the doorbell echoed.

Through the spiritual restriction on her door, Meng Huang identified the visitor as Hua Zijing.

She opened the door with a polite expression, finding Hua Zijing standing there in specialized protective gear. Upon seeing her, Hua Zijing produced a talisman.

The Department of Law Enforcement had placed a restriction on every isolated individual to ensure they stayed indoors; the unique talisman in Hua Zijing’s hand served as the key to temporarily bypass it.

“The True Monarch requested that I bring these to you…”

Hua Zijing remained outside. Once the isolation barrier was opened, she retrieved a sturdy leather chest from her storage void and presented it to Meng Huang.

“My thanks… wait… which True Monarch? Wasn’t this from the Pure Yang Master?”

Meng Huang thanked her reflexively while taking the box, but she suddenly caught the discrepancy in the title.

How could items from the Pure Yang Master suddenly be attributed to a True Monarch!

She wondered if the Double Saints of the Immortal Gate were showing pity to the performers of the Shocking God Sonata by sending medicinal supplements.

But why send them only now?

And did the Pure Yang Master have prior knowledge of this?

“The public announcement hasn’t reached the rest of the Immortal Gate yet, but since you are close with him, there is no harm in telling you. ‘Pure Yang Master’ is an outdated title; he has become the third saint of the Immortal Gate, the Pure Yang True Monarch.”

Having served as Chen Mobai’s secretaries for many years, Hua Zijing and Zhuang Jialan were aware of the brief, unconsummated history between him and Meng Huang during their youth at the Dance Tool Dao Academy.

Chen Mobai had frequently tasked them with delivering resources for Cultivation to Meng Huang over the years.

The two women, however, viewed this merely as Chen Mobai’s generous nature and his habit of looking after old acquaintances once he achieved greatness, never suspecting anything scandalous.

Now, while carrying out Chen Mobai’s orders to deliver the resources, Hua Zijing decided to share the joyous news with her.

“He… he achieved Divinity Transformation!”

Meng Huang was so struck by the news that she stood paralyzed in the doorway, her weakened body trembling to the point of near-collapse.

How could he have succeeded so quickly!

Was it due to the Shocking God Sonata?

No, that was impossible. The Sonata had been interrupted halfway through; his success in reaching Divinity Transformation must be credited to his own peerless talent.

This was the true potential of one destined for ascension!

[Oh no, was I too cold when he called me yesterday?] This was the first panicked thought that raced through Meng Huang’s mind once she recovered from the shock.

“Is something wrong? Are you feeling ill?”

Observing Meng Huang’s labored breathing and the way her face shifted between pale and flushed as she leaned against the door, Hua Zijing asked with a look of concern.

“I am fine… it is just that the news was so overwhelming, the joy nearly took my breath away.”

Meng Huang managed a forced smile, though her mind was already racing with ways to rectify her behavior from the previous day.

“I reacted the same way when I first heard. Junior Sister Meng, you must focus on your recovery. Under the direction of the Pure Yang True Monarch, the Immortal Gate is preparing to release a vast amount of resources. Having performed the Shocking God Sonata, you have essentially glimpsed the rhythms of the Dao. With the True Monarch’s backing and the support of our Weapon Dancing Sect, you might even have a chance to reach the Nascent Soul stage one day.”
