Magic Sect of Beauties: The Strongest Mage is in a Cultivation World

Chapter 249 Farewell, Fate Defying Elder. (II)

Sun Yurong approached Yang Wei and handed him a big box of scrolls. "Huh? What's this...?" Yang Wei asked, puzzled. Sun Yurong sighed and explained, "Remember? You told me you needed scrolls with teachings from the Fang, Scale, Venom, and Coil Peaks." Yang Wei smiled gratefully and nodded, "Thank you, Yulian..."

Sun Yurong got a little distracted from staring at him for too long and cleared her throat, closing her eyes. "Rather than thank me, just make sure you form a Golden Core. I'm hoping when you return, we can both spend some quality time together and perhaps..." she paused.

Yang Wei grew curious, "Perhaps?"

Sun Yurong turned away. "Perhaps, we can dual cultivate?"

With a smile, Yang Wei nodded──they didn't need any other words to express their feelings to each other. After all, she was likely the person who knew him better than anyone else.

"Just speak with Yuying, okay?"

Sun Yurong didn't respond and walked away.

Placing the box of scrolls on the ground, Tianyi jumped off Yang Wei's head and into the box to play with the scrolls inside. "Rawr! Rawr!" the dragon excitedly rolled around in the box. "Don't spoil anything, boy!" Yang Wei playfully warned his little pet. Tianyi obediently nodded and continued to play inside the box.

Before Yang Wei could even blink and consider the next thing, Mu Lin, Huo Yue, Huo Zirou and He Dongmei were all standing in front of him with affectionate looks on their faces──he knew they would miss him.

Looking very confused, Huo Zhenwei asked, "Uh, what's my aunt doing there?"

Wu Fengtian, who had already stopped crying and accepted the reality of his Senior Brother's departure, patted Huo Zhenwei on the back, "You're not ready for the truth." That was all he said, because that was all he needed to say. Wu Fengtian could clearly remember what happened several months back when Yang Wei won a bet against Pill Master Huo and took her behind closed doors.

"Huh?" said Huo Zhenwei.

Mu Lin held out a big basket for Yang Wei, "Wei, I made these for you. There's a lot of chicken there, so make sure you eat most of it and preserve the sauce, okay?" She placed the basket in his hand.

"Uh, will do, Lin'er..."

Huo Yue then stacked a big box on top of the basket, "I made you some pastries that you can eat. I don't know if I made too little or too much, so just..." she sighed, looking very sad.

Huo Zirou clasped her hands against her chest and smiled widely enough to show all her teeth, "Well, I'm not the best cook, but I did refine a lot of pills for you and made a special dish that my niece here taught me..."

She then patted Huo Yue's head a bit to cheer her up.

Huo Zirou brought out a very huge sack from her storage pouch and stacked it further on top of the loads Yang Wei was already carrying.

It felt a little heavy, and he said, "Uh, Zirou, isn't this a little excessive?"

Huo Zirou chuckled proudly, "Only the best for my beloved, I'm afraid."

He chuckled and leaned in to plant a kiss on her forehead.

When Yang Wei's lips pressed against her forehead, Huo Zirou abruptly looked away and started fussing with her hair frantically, as if there was something wrong with it. "Oh my, that was quite the surprise~♡" said a delighted Huo Zirou.

"!?──Y, Y, Yang Wei!"

Huo Zhenwei's eyeballs bulged out.

He didn't know what else to call this other than his worst nightmare.

H-he really managed to seduce both my sister and my aunt?! You are no man, Zhenwei, no man!

Acting as emotional support, Wu Fengtian patted Huo Zhenwei gently on his back.

"Wow..."

Jin Tianyu said as he watched.

"So, Senior Brother is really aiming for a harem? I can't say I'm not jealous."

He looked at his fists and pondered deeply.

I must get strong too... I can't let Senior Brother keep surpassing me like this!

Back to Yang Wei's beloveds, both Huo Yue and Mu Lin were pouting the moment they saw him kiss Huo Zirou's forehead.

"What's... wrong?"

Huo Yue twiddled her thumbs, "Well... you didn't kiss our foreheads, and now we... I feel a little left out." While she looked shy making this request, there was also a frown on her face.

Mu Lin, on the other hand, was bold about what she wanted. She folded her arms and stood with her usual sassy attitude, "If this cultivation of yours wasn't so important, I'd have demanded you sleep with the three of us at once to make it fair! Imagine going an entire year without seeing your face, maybe you're fine with it, but I'm not!"

Elder Qian watched him leave.

He didn't get get to master my inheritance... but he has earned my respect. Tch, and to think he wanted to sleep with me, very brazen man.

Seated in an isolated part of the scene was the ghostly form of Su Meirong, who twirled her hair as she watched Yang Wei's departure.

"So, this is who Shen Bao was talking about... he's boring."

The extremely beautiful woman said that, and yet she was still grinning almost viciously.

Yang Wei flew for a moment and then paused in the sky and shouted, "Shit! I forgot about Lingxi!"

"It's fine..." a voice calmly said.

Next, Mu Lingxi appeared before him as if by teleportation.

She just floated there with an inexpressive face and her arms folded.

"Oh, Lingxi..." Yang Wei looked a little relieved.

"You forgot about me..." she plainly said.

"Eh, not really, I just──"

Mu Lingxi sighed and waved a hand dismissively.

"Whatever, it doesn't matter now."

She removed a golden ribbon from her hair and held it out to Yang Wei.

"Take this, it isn't much, but it's something you'll use to remember your first martial sister by while you're gone."

Yang Wei took the ribbon from her hand, "A ribbon?"

"I know what you're like. You don't keep many attachments, and most of the time you don't care about a lot of things. You came from another world entirely to this one, and we met. I-, I don't know what your other life was like, or anything about you... so, forgive me if I..."

Mu Lingxi held back her words.

Yang Wei flew closer to her. "What's wrong?"

The beauty squeezed her fists tightly and closed her eyes to mask her inner frustrations.

"Forgive me if I think you'll just disappear again. Maybe you've already closed the chapter on this world and you're hungry for the next."

Yang Wei smiled at her, understanding everything she was trying to do. He removed a small, ornately designed blue and golden hairpin and handed it to Mu Lingxi.

"Then hold this for me..."

Mu Lingxi slowly took it from his hands. "What's this?"

Yang Wei couldn't hide the sincere smile on his face, a smile that almost made him look like a child──or rather, gave him the happiness of one. "That's the most precious thing I own. My... wife gave it to me."

"I see..."

Mu Lingxi took the hairpin and faced her head down, trying to hide the look of happiness on her face.

She didn't say anything.

A silence lingered for a minute.

Just as Yang Wei was about to speak up, Mu Lingxi spoke first. "Just make sure you train hard and return..." She looked at him with her doe-eyes, "Come back to me, Wei!"

Yang Wei grinned.

"I will. Take care of everyone for me..."

"I... will..."
