Chen Mengze's Feelings

Not long afterward.

Mingyu invited her mother Mingcang, Turtle Wansui, Mirage Lord, Whale Fuhai, Zhang Jiujiu, and the other four purple-robed elders to the Water Palace.

She also summoned the dozen or so Sea Clan elites who had previously clashed with the Azure Cloud Peak disciples, along with the many Ascension Lake elders, elite disciples, deacons, and Inner Sect disciples at the late second tier and above, holding an internal Ascension Lake meeting!

Its core purpose was nothing more than conveying Shen Mo's will, laying out the vision for Transformation Pills and the Demon Cultivator lineage, and dispelling the Sea Clan's resentment...

As it happened, Shen Mo attended the meeting as well.

However, he did not preside over its proceedings. More often, he merely used his status as the master of a cave heaven, a Divine Bridge Realm True Lord, and the Red Flame Sect's sect master to vouch for Mingyu's words and actions!

Once this matter was settled, Shen Mo took his leave amid the farewells of the Sea Clan disciples and teleported back to the Spirit Void Domain.

He did not return directly to Cloud-Viewing Mansion, but instead went to Chen Mengze's cultivation residence...

Because she cultivated the Ice-Clear Jade Immortal Art, her cave dwelling had been opened deep within a jade mountain. The mountain's interior had been hollowed out and filled with countless ten-thousand-year mystic ice blocks gathered from the Far North Cold Domain, then carefully fashioned into an icy palace.

Though no sunlight reached the depths of the jade mountain, pearl artifacts illuminated it brightly within and without. At her whim, she could also make day and night appear inside the cave dwelling.

Sensing Shen Mo's arrival, Chen Mengze deactivated the formation restrictions shrouding her cave dwelling, but she did not come out to greet him
