Chapter 116: Chapter 116 Reincarnation City

"Let’s go in," Purple Cloud led Mu Can to the massive gate at the center of the first level.

Mu Can entered the light screen with a nervous face.

"Wow, it’s huge." The second layer of the Reincarnation Pearl presented a completely different scene from the first layer.

If the first layer was filled with abundant soul energy, manifesting into mountains, rivers, plants, and trees,

then the second layer was truly a real Immortal Realm, with endlessly stretching mountains brimming with spiritual energy.

A roaring giant river coursed like a giant dragon twisting towards the distance. On the vast plains stood an enormous city that seemed more majestic and spectacular than any city Mu Can had ever seen.

There was actually a city within the second layer of the Reincarnation Pearl.

"Wow," followed by Purple Cloud, who also entered and was shocked at the sight of the second layer of the Reincarnation Pearl.

This second layer was like a small world, possessing an origin entirely different from that of both the mortal and Immortal Worlds.

A small world with its own origin, who knows how many times more brilliant it is than the outer death spaces.

It was just contained within a tiny Reincarnation Pearl.

"One layer, one world. The first layer of the Reincarnation Pearl is the Soul World, so what about the second layer?" Purple Cloud, sensing everything in the second layer, felt a bit puzzled.

"Let’s go, Sister Yun, let’s go into the city and have a look." With the enormous city laid out before them, Mu Can felt a tantalizing itch in his heart.

Purple Cloud nodded and walked with Mu Can towards the direction of the city.

As the immense city fully came into view, beholding the tall city gates that were as magnificent and splendid as the Divine Country in myths, the gates slowly opened when Mu Can and Purple Cloud approached.

"Even the Immortal World doesn’t have such magnificent cities." The Reincarnation Pearl was a product that completely surpassed Purple Cloud’s understanding. In the mysterious second layer, there existed such a grand city, but what stunned Purple Cloud was that there was not a single soul within the city.

It was an empty city. Within the second layer of the Reincarnation Pearl, such a vast empty city was hidden.

"Reincarnation City." The three characters hung high above the city gate.

"Let’s go to the city center." Mu Can got excited, grabbed Purple Cloud’s hand, and ran towards the city center.

Pretending to be calm, Mu Can only felt his heart racing, almost bursting out of his chest.

"I’m holding the goddess’ hand." A voice in his heart cheered and leapt with joy.

Purple Cloud was pulled along by Mu Can, feeling nothing amiss. If she knew Mu Can’s little thoughts,

she would inevitably have given him a severe lesson for daring to take liberties with Purple Cloud Immortal Venerable.

But the curiosity about the city prevented Purple Cloud from thinking too much.

Just like that, Mu Can pulled Purple Cloud along and ran directly to the center of the city.

"Reincarnation Mansion. It indeed is the City Lord Mansion." Typically, a city’s City Lord Mansion would be located at the very center of the city.

"What is the purpose of this city? Why is it completely devoid of people?" Mu Can curiously examined the City Lord Mansion, with no intention of letting go of Purple Cloud’s hand.

Holding Purple Cloud’s small hand, Mu Can’s heart was already blooming with joy. There was a first time, so could a second time be far off?

"What are you laughing at? Why so sleazy?" Purple Cloud looked at Mu Can with a suspicious face, suddenly feeling that Mu Can’s smile resembled that of a cheeky little fox.

"Nothing, nothing, I’m just happy that the second level of the Reincarnation Pearl finally opened up," Mu Can hurriedly explained. He dared not let Purple Cloud know his true thoughts. If she really found out, he guessed he would be unable to save himself.

"Really not thinking anything?" Purple Cloud looked at Mu Can with a smile.

"Nothing, absolutely nothing." Of course, Mu Can vehemently denied it, shaking his head like a rattle drum.

"Does my hand feel good to touch? How’s the texture?" Purple Cloud suddenly asked with a coquettish face.

Seeing Purple Cloud’s expression, Mu Can felt his heart might leap out of his chest. Such allure from Purple Cloud was too powerful; how could a greenhorn like Mu Can resist?

"Good, very good." Mu Can blurted out without thinking, saying what was on his mind.

"You little rascal, how dare you take advantage of me!" Purple Cloud pinched Mu Can’s hand fiercely, causing Mu Can to let out a pig-like scream of pain.

Even though his defensive power could now withstand attacks from low-grade Immortal Level weapons, in the face of a powerful being like Purple Cloud, he had absolutely no ability to resist.

"I’m wrong, Yun Yi, I’m wrong." Mu Can quickly admitted his mistake. With just that squeeze, he felt as if his bones were nearly crushed.

"Are you going to touch it or not?" Purple Cloud asked with a full smile on her face, as if it wasn’t her who was pinching Mu Can’s hand.

"Touch, touch, oh no, won’t touch any more, won’t touch any more." Mu Can originally wanted to be defiant but as the word ’touch’ slipped out, Purple Cloud applied more pressure, prompting him to quickly retract his words.

"Good boy." Purple Cloud finally let go of his hand. Mu Can vigorously moved his fingers and, seeing that there was no serious issue, finally relaxed.

In that moment just now, Mu Can felt as if his hand was about to break.

"Women from the foot of the mountain are tigers, and women from the Immortal World are even more so. Just wait until the day you can’t beat me, hmph," Mu Can thought to himself, looking at the triumphant and haughty Purple Cloud.

Of course, these were only thoughts in his heart. It would be absolutely impossible for Mu Can to show such sentiments.

"Yun Yi, you are so beautiful," Mu Can praised with a fawning face.

To be fair, both in terms of looks and temperament, Purple Cloud was the most beautiful girl Mu Can had ever seen.

"Oh? You still dare to flirt with Yun Yi?" Purple Cloud looked at Mu Can with amusement.

From somewhere, Mu Can mustered the courage and confidently said to Purple Cloud: "Yun Yi, there will come a day when I will ascend to the Immortal World and pull out all those who wronged you. Then whether to kill or flay, it will all be up to you."

Seeing Mu Can’s bold appearance, Purple Cloud felt that there was something different about Mu Can from before.

"Alright, you little rascal, I’ll wait for that day." Purple Cloud stared at Mu Can and noticed for the first time there was a hint of blush on his face.

"Eh? Little rascal, why is your face red?" Purple Cloud curiously asked.

Poor Purple Cloud, having been devoted to Alchemy before her self-destruction, aside from secluded cultivation and Alchemy, she was like a naive young girl, utterly simple when it came to matters of the heart. Otherwise, she would have long seen through Mu Can’s ulterior motives.

"It’s nothing, Yun Yi, I just got a bit tired from running over here." Mu Can hurriedly explained, but his tone slowly betrayed a lack of confidence.

Seeing that Purple Cloud wanted to ask more, Mu Can quickly said: "Yun Yi, let’s go inside and take a look, the City Lord Mansion surely has what we’re looking for."

"Alright." Although still full of confusion, Purple Cloud did not ask any more questions.
