Alchemy Sovereign Against the Heaven

29: Chapter 29 The Woman in the Painting 29: Chapter 29 The Woman in the Painting Hiss!

Upon witnessing the five Spirit Vein shadows hovering above Mo Wangchen’s head, both Mo Xiaotian and Xue’er gasped in astonishment.

“Five…

Five Spirit Veins?!”

After a brief silence, Mo Xiaotian suddenly burst out with an exclamation.

At the same time, an overwhelming aura, belonging to a Spirit Transformation Realm expert, erupted uncontrollably from him due to his intense excitement.

Xue’er and Mo Wangchen’s expressions changed instantly, and even their breathing became heavy.

“Five Spirit Veins!

It truly is five Spirit Veins!” Mo Xiaotian’s face was full of excitement, seemingly turning a bit mad, as he tilted his head back and let out a long howl.

“Father…”

Seeing him in this state, Mo Wangchen couldn’t help but worry, thinking to himself that his father might be so overwhelmed that he had lost his senses?!

Whoosh!

Eventually, Mo Xiaotian took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled, though his body still trembled slightly.

After a moment, he looked at Mo Wangchen intently, “Chen’er, the fact that you possess five Spirit Veins must never be known to others.

With this talent, you’ll surely be selected by Yun Chu Academy.

Once you leave Fangtian City, the outside world is treacherous, and you cannot trust anyone but yourself!”

“Chen’er understands!” Mo Wangchen nodded heavily.

He had already experienced the harshness of the cultivation world in his previous life.

Now, as someone who had lived twice, he naturally understood the meaning behind his father’s words.

“I never expected that my son, Mo Xiaotian, could gather five Spirit Veins.

Such talent is unparalleled in the history of the Yun Country.

It’s laughable that Jun Muqing once thought you weren’t worthy of her.

Now it seems, how could she possibly be worthy of you?!” Mo Xiaotian was extremely excited.

Back when Jun Muqing broke through to the Vein Condesation Realm, she had only condensed three Spirit Veins, becoming the number one talent under twenty in the Yun Country.

Now, recalling the day she came to the Mo Family to break off the engagement, what Mo Wangchen said to her before she left indicated that the two of them were destined to belong to different worlds.

Yes, because of Mo Wangchen’s talent, he was destined to achieve greatness that Jun Muqing could not compare to in the future!

It wasn’t until late at night that Mo Xiaotian and Xue’er left the courtyard.

To prepare for the examination the next day, Mo Wangchen went to sleep straight away.

That night, in Fangtian City, many people within various family powers found it hard to sleep.

Because tomorrow would be the day of Yun Chu Academy’s examination.

Whether their family’s disciples could be chosen would determine their future achievements.

That night, Mo Xiaotian also did not sleep.

He sat in the room without any worry or anxiety.

Instead, due to his excitement, he couldn’t sleep at all.

When the sky began to brighten, Mo Xiaotian finally stood up from the chair, the excitement on his face having subsided quite a bit.

He walked to a corner of the room and took down a painting from the wall.

Behind the painting, there was a hidden compartment.

Mo Xiaotian retrieved a portrait from it.

The portrait appeared a bit old, seeming to have endured the passage of time.

But when Mo Xiaotian unfolded it, he saw a beautiful young woman in the painting.

Beside the portrait, the woman’s name was inscribed, Lin Mengyao!

If Mo Wangchen were present, he wouldn’t find this name unfamiliar, because it was his mother’s name!

“Mengyao, Chen’er has finally grown up, and has gathered five Spirit Veins.

Regarding your matters, I thought I wouldn’t be able to tell him in this lifetime.

But now, I see hope.

Perhaps, someday in the future, we may meet again…”

Mo Xiaotian’s rough hand gently brushed over the portrait.

His eyes revealed both relief and an immense longing.

…

When the sky was completely bright and the Bright Sun slowly rose, the sunlight spilled over the earth, making the small city of Fangtian City brim with vibrant life.

Early this morning, nearly everyone from the family powers within the city was awake, with a solemn look on their faces.

And at this moment, within the Mo Family, at a certain plaza.

Led by Mo Xiaotian, a group of young clan members stood before him, with equally tense expressions on their faces.

“Today is the day of Yun Chu Academy’s examination.

In the past years, no one from the Mo Family was ever selected.

But this year, many talents have emerged in the clan.

I hope you all can bring honor to the Mo Family.

If you’re selected by Yun Chu Academy, your future will be bright!” Mo Xiaotian’s gaze swept over the dozen young clan members in front of him.

Besides Mo Cheng, Mo Wangchen and Mo Xue were also among them.

These were the people set to participate in the examination today.

“Why is Mo Wangchen standing there too?

Is he also participating in the examination?”

“Impossible, right?

His meridians can’t store Spiritual Power, making it impossible for him to step into the Vein Condesation Realm in this lifetime.

How could he have the nerve to take the examination?

Isn’t he inviting ridicule?”

Around them, some middle-aged members of the Mo Family couldn’t help but discuss.

Some spoke disdainfully; most of them were from Mo Xiaofan’s lineage.

“Young Master Mo is now a disciple of Master Lin Qing.

He might have received some Pill that healed his meridians.

It’s not impossible…”

Another clan member said this.

He belonged to Mo Xiaotian’s lineage, and ever since they heard Mo Wangchen became Master Lin Qing’s disciple ten days ago, they viewed Mo Wangchen differently.

Regardless of anything, even if Mo Wangchen’s achievements in Martial Arts weren’t great in the future, at the very least, as a disciple of Master Lin Qing and potentially becoming an Alchemist, he could greatly aid the Mo Family!

Nowadays, in the eyes of many clan members, Mo Wangchen was no longer the useless fool he once was.

Some even greeted him warmly when they encountered him within the family.

In the center, not far from where Mo Wangchen stood, was Mo Cheng.

Seeing the calm expression on Mo Wangchen’s face, without a trace of tension, he couldn’t help but frown slightly, feeling something was off.

“Maybe I’m overthinking…”

After a moment of silence, Mo Cheng muttered to himself.

Even if Mo Wangchen’s meridians had recovered, it had only been a month.

He likely hadn’t even broken through to the Vein Condesation Realm.

In this Yun Chu Academy examination, Mo Wangchen wouldn’t be selected.

Regardless of him being Master Lin Qing’s disciple, it made no difference.

Yun Chu Academy’s disciple selection wasn’t based on one’s status, but on whether they truly chose you!

“As long as I’m chosen, once I enter Yun Chu Academy to cultivate, my cultivation will advance by leaps and bounds.

Even if Mo Wangchen becomes a Pill Master, I’ll still have some confidence when facing him!” Mo Cheng thought to himself.

Although Alchemists were respected, on the Tian Nan Continent, the ultimate authority still rested in the hands of Martial Arts experts.

As long as he became strong enough, how could Mo Wangchen, even if he became an Alchemist, possibly compare to him?
