Chapter 413

Mo Nian again invites Chen et al to Mo Gate.
Although he knew Mo Nian had good intentions, Long Chen shook his head. "Safety is only something temporary. Since we've stepped onto the path of cultivation, there is no such thing as safety.
"Once you become strong enough, you'll end up coming into contact with even stronger people. The struggle never ends.
"Joining Mo Gate will only give us a temporary moment of peace. But that won't guarantee us a lifetime of peace. So, if people want to live, they need to have their own powerful strength.
"Strength is everything. I need to get stronger, to make everyone revere my strength, to make everyone afraid of me, to make it so just my name is enough to make people quake in fear."
"Fine. Then at that time, Han Tianyu will be left to you, and I'll handle Yin Luo. This time I'll see whether I can sever his head." Mo Nian clenched a fist. "However, it seems you've also offended Huo Wufang. That fellow truly is troublesome. He has the Pill Tower behind him, and that's a huge power that no one can provoke."
Previously, Long Chen had been holding back against the 1st Xuantian Monastery. But as a result, all that had brought him was more enemies and more battles. Since that was the case, he would let himself loose and go all-out.
"I've heard that the 2nd Xuantian Monastery's Hua Biluo is very powerful and that she once made a public announcement to all the monasteries.
"She said that those images of your wicked actions were just a contemptible trap set up by others secretly targeting you and that no one should get duped.
"At the same time, she implied that the one targeting you was the first monastery. As a result, there ended up being several clashes between disciples from the first and second monasteries.
"From the looks of it, Hua Biluo wants to help you. My guess is that she wants to suppress the first monastery to fight over first place. You might be able to pull her in," said Mo Nian.
== Violet Phoenix ==
Back then, they had gained a total of four Violet Phoenix Sparrows, and he had given his to Meng Qi. But Meng Qi had used some unknown method to transfer this housepet to Tang Wan-er, even saying that it was Long Chen who had reserved it for her.
That deeply moved him. Inside, he praised Meng Qi over and over again for being smart and meticulous.
If three of the four of them had Violet Phoenix Sparrows, with Meng Qi having two while Tang Wan-er having none, although none of them would say anything, it would definitely make them feel a little bit unwell.
But Meng Qi had given one of hers to Tang Wan-er and even said that it was Long Chen who had reserved it for her, causing Tang Wan-er to be grateful to him. Long Chen could not be more touched.
== Tempering ==
Long Chen then talks about Bone Tempering.
