Omnipotent Overlord

Chapter 73: Wang Huan

Seal! Li Mo said and Ye Xiaolu entered the yellow seal.

Her grudge took form?

The light pain he felt down below had him startled. 

A wraith didnt have physical form, only a mass of condensed grudge. And seeing them was nigh impossible for the average man.

For wraiths to become physical, their only means was to possess. It was unheard of for a wraith to have a physical body made completely out of grudge.

But a powerful wraith could become physical for a brief moment, letting everyone see it. A wraith in such a state could even inflict harm.

Ye Xiaolu assumed the exact same state. But because of her low cultivation, she couldnt inflict a lot of damage on Li Mo.

It may not have been very painful, but the shock was far greater.

She could actually reach such a level without cultivating and having been a wraith for just a little while. She had to be a genius of the wraith world seen only every ten thousand years

Since she moved under my Soul Search, she must have a higher cultivation than mine how dangerous!

Li Mo rejoiced and carefully put the yellow seal away.

He would never let her out again unless he was fully prepared.

Li Mo checked out of the hotel in the afternoon. Hu Dezhi gave him a call and was gushing over the phone in joy. Tang Zhan was loving the two items Li Mo chose. He took them on the spot to his study to do ample research. 

Hu Dezhi didnt really care what items they were as long as Tang Zhan liked them.

Old sport, you helped me immensely. I will definitely show my thanks. If youre in need of anything in the future, just ask and I will do it, no questions asked!

Hu Dezhi was so moved he wanted to entertain Li Mo to a feast, and even said he would get Jiang Xiaomei and all kinds of great things. But Li Mo refused.

He came to Chuan Province for two purposes.

Li Mo was now going out to find Wang Huan based on the info Hu Dezhi provided.

Chuan Province had three great clans. Of the Tang Group, Wang Estate, and Huang Palace, the first was the strongest, no doubt about it. The other two were equal in power. And Wang Estate drew itself from an imperial prince. 

Wang Estate wasnt renowned for its century old collection of fine wines, but for its gorgeous women and pretty guys.

And they were all naturally born like this, not touched up in the least.

The hideous Wang Huan that no one could bear to look at was clearly an exception. However, Wang Huang wasnt a direct descendant. He came from a branch of the clan so distant that even their surnames were different.

Because of his birth, Wang Huan didnt wallow in a  lavish lifestyle in the Wang Estate. He lived for many years, alone, in a quiet house found in a peaceful village at the foot of Huanglong Mountain.

Li Mo rode the bus all night and arrived at Huanglong Mountain by noon next day. He was now standing before Wang Huans house with a frown.

Wang Huans home wasnt a mansion, but a run down bungalow. It didnt even have glass for windows, covered instead in plastic sheets. 

The grass in the garden was so big it almost entered the house. After looking around the house for a moment, he realized this place was a dump. 

Wang Huan wasnt home, but there were signs in the grass that someone was living here. 

Li Mo didnt doubt Hu Dezhis info. Not when this matter was nothing to the likes of him to do.

Went out? Went up?

Li Mos heart skipped a beat.

Wang Huans Earth Escape Art wasnt learned from Wang Estate. In Chuan Province, Tang Group was specialized in poisons, Huang Palace was preaching Daoism and expert in alchemy, while Wang Estate was known for flying swords. Rumor had it that the Wang clan drew itself from a sword immortal that could control his flying sword for hundreds of miles to kill his enemies. Getting to the bottom of this rumor was impossible, since no one had seen the Wang clan use flying swords for centuries. Because of this, the Wang clan wasnt too arrogant either, only engaging in wine selling business, the most expensive wine in the country.

Wang Estate wasnt filthy rich either, just well off. The whole country knew this. But not enough that even such a distant descendant like Wang Huan would be reduced to living in such poor conditions. 

Li Mo shook his head at Wang Huans wretched place and activated the Celestial Eye to find where traces in the grass led.

The Celestial Eyes eyesight was thousand of times stronger than a human eye. Li Mo pursued the trail into Huanglong Mountain, leaving the village. 

Its indeed up.

On a lonely cliff on Huanglong Mountain, a time-space rupture flickered.

The time-space rupture contained a mountain, just that it was completely bare, unlike the pine and grass covered slopes of Huanglong Mountain. 

Master, is my talent that poor? Ive trained in your Earth Escape Art for ten years and I cant dive for more than 50 meters. I-I am such a waste.

Wang Huan towered over a half a meter midget, ashamed. 

The midget held a tablet, appreciating everything Teacher Sola in the movie had to offer. His drool was leaking, his eyes glued to the screen. In short, he was showing a very offensive sight.

Wang Huan cried, Master, master, did you hear me?

Big, so big. Ah? You said something? The midged wiped his drool and raised his head.

I was saying Wang Huan repeated.

As I see it, your world has thin spiritual qi. And you cant cultivate here either. This has nothing to do with talent. Dont worry, you arent lacking.

He blurted the words as fast as he could and returned to watching his Teacher Sola.

Then what do I do? How can I increase my strength? Master! Master!!

Ah, ah? I dont know either. I cant leave this place either. By the way, disciple, you mentioned last time of some mixed-raced person by the name of Lola. Next time bring me a USB with her.

I wont forget. I will surely bring it.

Good disciple! Thats the spirit! The midget threw his fist in the air then went right back at sinking his focus into watching Teacher Sola.

Oh. Wang Huan was about to leave, when the midget raised his head, Disciple, do you know what we, immortals, value the most? Its neither talent nor cultivation methods. But a land teeming with spiritual qi. If you can find such a paradise, then your cultivation would soar.

Wang Huans eyes sparkled, How do I find it?

Big, oh so big, and white, so white The midget was back watching the action.

Wang Huan sighed and lowered his head.

Whoosh~

Wang Huan appeared outside the time-space rupture, looked around a few times then hastened away.

Inside the time-space rupture.

Damn, the battery is almost dead. Dont leave, good disciple! Take the tablet and charge it before you go!

The midget cried and dived into the earth. A breath later, he was already miles away. He was far more skillful with Earth Escape Art than Wang Huan. 

Now, the midget looked at the time-space rupture in sadness.

This door he could not use, only Wang Huan could

Good disciple, hurry back! The midget closed his eyes and prayed.

Whoosh~

A figure descended before him.
