Chapter 247

"By boat, of course."

Seeing Lei Lei Wujie's matter-of-fact expression, Pearl couldn't help but sigh, then continued to ask: "And how many boats did we come on?"

"Just one, of course..."

This time, Lei Lei Wujie, who was halfway through his sentence, finally realized.

There was only one boat.

How could they split up and escape?

"Cough, cough~ I was just anxious!"

Lei Lei Wujie laughed sheepishly: "I forgot for a moment that we were on an island. If I had known, I would have borrowed a few more boats."

Xiao Se looked up at Lei Lei Wujie and said: "That's only one aspect. Besides, you don't really think the other party doesn't know what's happening here, do you?"

As soon as he finished speaking,

Mo Yi, who had been fighting Baili Baili Dongjun, suddenly appeared in front of them.

"Indeed, nothing that happens on this island can escape my perception."

Mo Yi looked at Lei Lei Wujie and Xiao Se and smiled lightly:

"However, what I am more curious about is that Junior Brother named Jiang Chen you mentioned earlier. Listening to you, he shouldn't be very old, yet he has already broken through to the Divine Wandering Realm."

"I didn't expect that in just a few decades, another incredible genius would emerge in the Northern Li Dynasty."

Lei Lei Wujie asked curiously: "Why did you say 'another'? Is there another genius?"

"Of course."

Mo Yi nodded with a smile.

"Who is it?" Lei Lei Wujie asked: "You don't mean me, do you?"

The smile on Mo Yi's face paused, and then he asked: "You have been on the island for a while now, and I still don't know your name."

"Lei Lei Wujie!"

Lei Lei Wujie puffed out his chest: "Lei Lei Wujie of the Jiangnan Thunderbolt Hall, Lei Family Fortress!"

Mo Yi shook his head: "Never heard of it."

"It's normal that you haven't heard of me, but in a few days, my great name will surely spread throughout the Northern Li Jianghu."

"You misunderstood."

Mo Yi said indifferently: "I meant that I haven't heard of this so-called Lei Family Fortress you speak of."

"However, you were right about one thing: being able to die on this Penglai Immortal Island is indeed worth the Jianghu knowing who you are. Of course, that is assuming someone can get the news out of here."

Lei Lei Wujie: "..."

"Senior, how about you let us go back first, and after some time, we can bring someone else to give to you, how about that?"

Lei Lei Wujie couldn't help but say: "If one isn't enough, Senior, just give us a number."

"Oh?"

Mo Yi said with a smile: "I thought you were a good person before, but it turns out you are just someone who only cares about the people you care about."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Se and the others couldn't help but look at Lei Lei Wujie.

Although they would certainly not agree to leaving Pearl here.

But if they were to find other innocent people to replace Pearl, they wouldn't be able to do that either.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Lei Lei Wujie spread his hands and said: "I didn't say to go find innocent people. Whether it's Tianqi City or Snow Moon City, or even the Lei Family Fortress where I am, there are dungeons and the like."

"And those who can be locked up in there, even if they aren't heinous, they must have committed some wrong. If that doesn't work, we can just pick those on death row."

Hearing Lei Lei Wujie's words,

both Xiao Se and Tang Lian's eyes lit up.

That's right,

if they used those on death row, they wouldn't have the slightest sense of guilt.

However,

before they could even be happy.

Mo Yi poured a bucket of cold water on them: "No need, this Miss Pearl is just fine."

After speaking,

Mo Yi looked at Lei Lei Wujie again: "Didn't you just ask me who the other genius was? I can tell you now, the other one is me!"

"I stepped into the Divine Wandering Realm at the age of twenty-four, and now, forty years later, I am an Earth Immortal."

"Then wouldn't you be sixty-four years old?! Is there really such a thing as immortals in this world?"

Pearl exclaimed,

looking at Mo Yi, whose appearance seemed to be only in his twenties, with disbelief.

"Immortals? You could say so, but I am not one yet."

Hearing Pearl's words.

Mo Yi smiled lightly: "My master once told me that even among immortals, the realms are different. As for me now, I can only be considered an Earth Immortal, which is what the world calls a Land Immortal. As for being a true immortal, that is just a realm."

"Earth Immortal?"

Xiao Se couldn't help but murmur.

The one in Tianqi City seems to be at this realm.

Mo Yi glanced at Xiao Se and asked with a smile: "Are you trying to talk about Xie Zhi, who has been staying in the World's First Tower?"

Xiao Se nodded subconsciously.

"He is indeed an Earth Immortal."

Mo Yi said indifferently: "But the Earth Immortal realm is divided into nine levels. When I saw him back then, he had only just reached the first level. Now, forty years later, with his talent, it would be considered good luck if he had broken through to the second level. As for me, I have already reached the sixth level."

Although Xie Zhi is considered his senior,

with the increase in his strength, Mo Yi also roughly knew Xie Zhi's cultivation talent.

With the other party's talent,

being able to break through to the Earth Immortal realm is already very rare.

Beyond that,

if there are no special opportunities, he would probably break through at most one or two more levels before reaching his limit.

And himself,

as long as he is given time, although he is not certain about the Heaven Immortal realm, breaking through to the Immortal realm is not a problem.

But!

Mo Yi slowly took a step, arrived in front of Pearl, and spoke softly:

"But even at the sixth level of the Earth Immortal realm, one is still an Earth Immortal. And an Earth Immortal can only change things on the ground, but cannot defy the mandate of Heaven. To change the mandate of Heaven, one must become a Heaven Immortal. But this realm, even I cannot guarantee that I can reach it."

Lei Lei Wujie couldn't help but ask: "What is a matter on the ground, and what is the mandate of Heaven?"

Mo Yi pointed at Xiao Se: "Curing his damaged hidden meridians is considered a matter on the ground."

"As for the mandate of Heaven..."

Speaking of this, Mo Yi sighed lightly: "For example, if I want to let someone who has already died return to this world, that is considered the mandate of Heaven."

Xiao Se pondered for a moment and asked:

"Since even you, at the Earth Immortal realm, cannot do it, how can Pearl help you?"

"Because he wants to use Pearl's body to summon back his sister's soul."

Just then,

Baili Baili Dongjun walked over: "It is rumored that Mount Mount Huanglong has a formation that can summon back the souls of those who have already died. However, to ensure the summoned soul does not dissipate, one must prepare a body in advance to carry the summoned soul."

"What?!"

Lei Lei Wujie and the others were shocked.

They finally understood why Mo Yi insisted on keeping Pearl, and not them.

After understanding everything,

a wave of regret rose in Lei Lei Wujie's heart; if only he had refused to let Pearl come along.

"So, you should know why I didn't agree to your previous proposal."

Mo Yi looked at Lei Lei Wujie and said indifferently: "...The body used to carry my sister's soul, how could it be those people who have been in prison."

"However..."
