Chapter 766: 752

After dinner, everyone returned to their respective places. Zheng Tang went back to the office and handed over the footage to Xiaoan and the team to edit, combining it with what had been shot previously.

Sena Milia took Saintess Wei Se back to their courtyard.

Xia Yue and Yan Mo set out to find Wei Se and the others, reasoning that since they were guests, as hosts who knew about their arrival, they should at least make an appearance and greet them.

"According to what Ao Mi said, Wei Se and the others should be staying here." Standing outside a courtyard, Xia Yue said to Yan Mo.

"Let’s knock on the door," Yan Mo nodded, stepped forward, knocked on the gate, and called out, "Mr. Wei, Mr. Tang, Miss Qin, Mr. Tian, we are Yan Mo and Xia Yue."

Then the courtyard gate opened automatically, but no one was there to greet them; instead, a voice came from inside, "Come in, we’re in the lobby."

Xia Yue and Yan Mo went inside and found the four of them sitting in the main hall chatting.

"Good evening, the four of you. I’m sorry, we got tied up with other things after sending out the invitations this afternoon and neglected you," Xia Yue apologized as she greeted them.

"The woman Wei Se came earlier, right? You’ve been together?" Wei Se inquired, sensing the presence of Saintess Wei Se on them, and spoke in a nonchalant tone.

"Yes, Saintess Wei Se arrived right after we handed out the invitations, so we started showing her around the resort area and had fun trying different attractions for a while," Xia Yue nodded and explained.

"Good evening, Miss Xia, Mr. Yan. Really, everything here looks so good and the food is delicious," Tian Rong said with a smile.

"As long as you find it delicious. Our resort area will open the day after tomorrow, and there will be even more tasty dishes then, along with plenty of entertainment options to enjoy. Feel free to explore and have fun," Xia Yue said with a smile.

"But we’re not very familiar with the place," Tian Rong mentioned a bit sheepishly.

"No worries, we’ll take you around tomorrow to introduce you to the basics of the resort area, so you’ll have an idea of what to do. Plus, you can also join other tourists and have your own adventures, which is a unique experience," Xia Yue told him.

"Excuse me, where is Saintess Wei Se?" Tang Ming asked, looking at Xia Yue and Yan Mo.

In that world where they had been on a mission before, they had only observed each other from a distance and hadn’t made direct contact. Now, seeing him, Xia Yue was reminded of the previous incident when they had been trailing them and felt a touch of guilt.

"Saintess Wei Se and Ziluo hit it off right away, they have a lot to talk about, so she’s staying over at their place," Xia Yue said, not daring to mention that Wei Se didn’t really want to see them.

"That woman doesn’t want to see us at all, does she?" Wei Se spoke impatiently, unable to let go of what Saintess Wei Se had done before, despite knowing the reason behind it.

"Come on, Saintess Wei Se did it for our own good. Don’t be so harsh on her; after all, it was I who asked her for help." Now that Tang Ming had his memories restored, he felt somewhat sorry for Wei Se, realizing that if it hadn’t been for his request, he and his loved one might not have made it this far.

"Hmph," Wei Se scoffed and stayed silent.

"Meeting her is easy, since you are all in the resort area. There’s no need to rush; you can take this opportunity to rest up well today," Yan Mo interjected with a smile, lightening the mood.

"Alright, it seems Saintess Wei Se still has some reservations." Hearing him say this, Tang Ming had no choice but to give up on the idea of seeking out Saintess Wei Se for a talk right away.

Xia Yue and Yan Mo didn’t stay there long, either. After a brief chat, they left, feeling that they just couldn’t blend in with the atmosphere.

On their way back.

"It seems like Wei still harbors deep resentment towards Saintess Wei Se," Xia Yue kicked at the pebbles beneath her feet as she walked and talked.

"Of course, there still is resentment. After all, what Saintess Wei Se did before was quite a blow for someone who had just lost their lover. The impression on Wei is too deep. I reckon now, whenever he sees Saintess Wei Se or hears her name, he’s reminded of all that happened," Yan Mo said, feeling a bit sorry for Wei when thinking about the things Saintess Wei Se had done.

"That’s true, Wei did have it rough, but seeing his arrogant demeanor, I think Saintess Wei Se didn’t do enough. She should have tormented him more, only then would it feel satisfying," Xia Yue said. Whenever she thought of Wei’s pride, she yearned to see him suffer more—that would truly be gratifying.

Xia Yue admitted to herself that her malevolent streak was acting up.

"You better not let him hear you say that. If he loses it, that won’t end well. And don’t forget, you still rely on him for evaluation. If he retaliates and gives you a low score, that’ll be because he wants to see you in tears," Yan Mo cautioned, chuckling at her words.

"I’m not that stupid. It’s just the two of us here, so I’m just chatting with you for a laugh.

I wouldn’t dare say it to his face," Xia Yue waved her hand at him, signaling that she wouldn’t dare to say such things in front of Wei.

"That’s the best approach. Alright, let’s hurry back. We’ve traveled all day, browsed around after returning, and even fought a little; must be tired by now. Let’s rest early once we get back. We’ve got a whole lot of things to do tomorrow in preparation for the opening," Yan Mo suggested.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, let’s go. You’ll probably be busier than me with all the work you have. Better get some rest soon," said Xia Yue honestly. With Different Space at her disposal, she could rest more than anyone else and was hardly ever worn out.

Yan Mo, on the other hand, would likely be very busy, organizing people to train in Fantasy Space, cultivating himself, and looking after some of the defenses in the Resort Area.

During their time at the base, Elder Wei revealed that spiritual power was gradually increasing. Some people had already developed Spiritual Roots and the Ability after the previous mission’s minor spiritual power eruption

Therefore, they were preparing to progressively announce the possibility of cultivation.

Once announced, it would be necessary to organize personnel to guide these individuals, to prevent them from going astray and causing chaos in society.

Moreover, Cultivators are very sensitive to spiritual power, and the food at the Resort Area is rich in spiritual energy. There were concerns that many people, aware of the abundant food filled with spiritual energy here, might try to forcefully take it, so enhancing the defenses of the Resort Area was essential.

In fact, Xia Yue had confidence in the defense system of the Resort Area, but Yan Mo was worried about accidents and wanted to be more cautious.

Understanding that he had the best interests of the Resort Area in mind, Xia Yue didn’t try to persuade him further.

The next day, when Xia Yue woke up, she found that Ancient Martial’s Shen Xichen, Martial Sovereign Feng Ling, Su Bai, as well as the Last Epoch’s Lin Jingyang, Qi Ran, and Cheng Huan had all arrived.

Ziluo and Yun Peng were currently taking them on a tour of the Resort Area, explaining the different attractions.

Xia Yue hadn’t expected all of them to arrive at once, especially Martial Sovereign Feng Ling and his group. She had thought they would come a few days later.
