I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 2238: Chapter 1030: Nothing but Emotion (9K)_2

It was obvious, Ye Yune didn’t care about her at all.

”If it really doesn’t work out, just wait for the next time.”

Yan Qiongzhi said to a colleague beside her. Actually, she had already anticipated this outcome, but the opportunity that only comes once in a century was right in front of her. If she didn’t fight for it, she feared she would regret it in the future.

Having contacted everyone she knew who might be involved in that circle, she could at least tell herself she had tried her best.

Failure was due to the lack of any methods.

It was not her fault.

In this way, at least she could have peace of mind as a cultivator.

”It’s said the portal is fluctuating again. If you want to obtain the Infant Forming Spirit Medicine next time, you might have to risk going to the different world. Why don’t you speak to the principal, have her arrange for you to be at the military department? If you manage to occupy a position in one of the Black Tortoise Dao Palace’s constellation spiritual pivots, your chances of earning merits will be higher.”

The middle-aged female teacher spoke again. She was the most senior Golden Core cultivator at the Nature Studies Academy, but her cultivation level had been stuck at the Golden Core Sixth Layer for a long time, so she no longer had the ambition. However, she was very knowledgeable about the various departments and systems of the Immortal Gate and began advising Yan Qiongzhi.

”If only we could continue cultivating in seclusion peacefully then we would automatically obtain the Infant Forming Spirit Medicine when the time comes.”

Another very young teacher wearing glasses spoke up, fantasizing.

”Since you’re dreaming, why not imagine yourself as an unparalleled genius like the Orthodox Law Hall Master, someone who needs no spiritual medicine and, with supreme talent and unmatched skill, can easily break through and stand at the pinnacle of the Immortal Gate!”

The middle-aged female teacher turned her head to the young man, who couldn’t help but shake his head.

”An unparalleled figure like the Orthodox Law Hall Master only appears once every few thousand years in the Immortal Gate. We ordinary people should dream more realistically.”

Listening to her colleagues’ conversation, Yan Bingxuan’s gaze was slightly lost.

Achieving the Golden Core Realm in the Immortal Gate meant one had overcome countless adversities, standing out as true geniuses.

However, when compared to Chen Mobai, they all saw themselves as ordinary people.

”I’m leaving for the day. Tomorrow, I have to take our department’s students to gather mountain and river Dao rhythms and draw them into talismans...”

After chatting for a while, the young teacher with glasses bid farewell to Yan Bingxuan and the others, taking his bag and leaving.

Afterward, the middle-aged woman also left.

”Teacher, should I and the Orthodox Law Hall Master...”

When only the two of them were left, Yan Bingxuan couldn’t help but speak, but was stopped halfway by Yan Qiongzhi’s headshake.

”I know you had a past romance with him, and with his loyal and righteous nature, he would definitely help if you ask. But I don’t want you to sacrifice your dignity for me. Don’t worry, I’ll strive for the Infant Forming Spirit Medicine myself; no need to worry about me...”

Speaking, Yan Qiongzhi gave Yan Bingxuan a smile.

Besides being related by blood, they were also mentor and student, with very similar personalities. Naturally, they understood each other very well.

Even though she yearned for the Nascent Soul Formation, Yan Qiongzhi didn’t want Yan Bingxuan to humble herself because of it.

”I...”

After listening, Yan Bingxuan opened her mouth but didn’t know what to say.

She had made the decision to contact Chen Mobai on her own.

Compared to others in the office, Yan Qiongzhi only showed her true feelings in front of her, often looking troubled after finishing one call after another.

As Golden Core cultivators, most of their direct family members were already laid to rest. For the next several hundred years, it would be the two of them supporting each other, so Yan Bingxuan wanted to help her.

”The principal is looking for me; perhaps there’s good news. I’ll be leaving first.”

At that moment, Yan Qiongzhi received a text, with a hint of joy on her face. She told Yan Bingxuan and left the office.

”Sigh...”

Left alone, Yan Bingxuan sighed.

Holding her phone, she planned to call Chen Mobai in the evening, to set aside her pride and ask for an Infant Forming Spirit Medicine for Yan Qiongzhi.

But now, she couldn’t bring herself to make the call.

In truth, she doubted her own intentions — whether she was reaching out to Chen Mobai for Yan Qiongzhi’s sake or if she was using it as an excuse to reconnect with him.

In her youth, she was proud and ambitious, believing that after giving her all, she deserved everything from him.

But now, approaching two hundred, she was gradually coming to terms with Chen Mobai’s abandonment.

Over the years, she had also found out through Wang Xinying about how Chen Xiaohei, the illegitimate daughter, came to be.

In the appearance of this daughter, Chen Mobai was also a victim.

Yet he resolutely took on the responsibility, even publicly admitting to the Immortal Gate just to provide that unexpected daughter with a complete family.

If it were Yan Bingxuan in Chen Mobai’s position, she probably wouldn’t have had such resolve.

After all, when Chen Mobai announced he had a daughter, though he was highly authoritative in the Immortal Gate, he had not yet reached the level of near-absolute power below the Divinity Transformation. If things went wrong, and he faced doubt and criticism from the public, it could have completely derailed his career, changing him from a public idol to being scorned by the masses.

Despite understanding, Yan Bingxuan still felt wronged by Chen Mobai.

She would always remember her success in Core Formation, coming out full of joy, wanting to meet him as soon as possible to share the good news, only to see him guiltily reveal that matter. That feeling of going from great joy to utter heartbreak was something she never wanted to go through again.
