“What’s this combat outfit?”
Ying Bing looked down with her eyes, staring at the clothes on the table, lost in thought.
It was a South Border style outfit—no, it was even a tad gaudier than that—this time a refreshing bunny girl getup, pure and chilly…
Plus, it fulfilled Little Ke’s gentlemanly dream of turning the black cloud fabric into socks.
Cold Fairy had seen many things and was no stranger to such attire.
She had even worn one after getting a bath.
The issue is…
What kind of battle is one supposed to perform in this costume?
【Do you need me to assist you in putting it on?】
“No…”
Recalling how the assistant was fond of taking things out of context, the cautious Cold Fairy only said a single word.
【Okay, just a gentle reminder, this reward must be completed within today.】
【Next time, I won’t help you wear it automatically. You must wear it yourself when you come across something outstanding.】
“?”
In Ying Bing’s almond eyes, a question mark floated as the autumn waters became stagnant.
First of all, she had no idea how to wear this thing because the gaudier the outfit, the more complicated it was.
Then…
Wasn’t she supposed to put it on in front of him?
“……”
……
Meanwhile, in the South Border’s Senluo Valley.
The thick fog here was unshakeable, and the winds cut like knives, seemingly indifferent to the seasons changing.
“It’s impossible?! I clearly killed him with my own hands!”
Zhu Renji glared with his bulging chicken eyes.
“But this God Hammer Little Overlord on the Qianlong List, can’t he be a fake!”
Luo Yexian snorted coldly, his expression unfriendly.
“Holy Son, say something, Holy Son!”
“You saw with your own eyes how I turned him into nothing but a piece of dust!”
Zhu Renji’s face was filled with disbelief.
“I did see it, but I only care that I entrusted the task to you, and you failed.”
Huanmo Sect’s Holy Son Tan Zhuyin’s face was dark as water: “Now he’s still alive, and we not only promised the lives of many from the South Border but also suffered heavy losses, not to mention we didn’t even get a single piece of scrap back from Lankeshan!”
“This…”
Zhu Renji wasn’t stupid; he grasped the Holy Son’s meaning.
This trip to the Yunmeng Underworld had been disastrous for the Huanmo Sect.
The two Law Kings were gravely injured, the people they brought with them nearly died, and they’ve even damaged their very foundation—the power of life—yet returned with nothing beneficial.
The headquarters would definitely send someone to hold them accountable; someone had to bear the blame.
Zhu Renji’s survival instincts kicked in, and his IQ reached a peak:
“Holy Son, we haven’t come back entirely empty-handed.”
“Hmm?”
“The pearl! That pearl! We put in a lot of effort to snatch that!”
“Now you mention that, it makes me even angrier!”
Tan Zhuyin took out the stone bead from his waist, wanting to smash it against the ground but hesitated.
“What good is this thing?”
“Holy Son, if it’s a divine object, it must be extraordinary. What if we just didn’t find the right method?”
“Why don’t we ask Senior Brother?”
Luo Yexian suggested.
“Hmph, a bunch of fools! Worthless!”
A cold snort suddenly came from behind, and Tan Zhuyin was already furious. Who the heck was so bold as to insult even the Holy Son?
He turned around angrily, his tone ominous:
“Vice Sect Leader!”
The newcomer, dressed in white with an impressive long beard, looked like an ordinary teacher.
But those who often mingled with the Huanmo Sect knew—this was none other than Yu Wen Cuojin, one of the three famous vice leaders of the Huanmo Sect.
“I have something to say.”
“Alright, Vice Sect Leader.”
“A mere Observation Realm caused so much chaos in our sect, resulting in such heavy losses.”
Yu Wen Cuojin’s voice was deep: “Holy Son, how will you explain this to the headquarters?”
“…..”
Tan Zhuyin raised the ‘waste stone bead.’
“You’ve all been tricked; how can you call yourselves members of the Huanmo Sect? I’m embarrassed for you!”
Yu Wen Cuojin almost wanted to smack these people into oblivion.
“After so many have died, you’re still eagerly offering the power of life back, only to return with this worthless stone. Are you not awake yet?”
“But Senior Brother said…”
“Fine, let him come out, and let me see why he dares to claim he’s a celestial being!”
……
In the Qingyuan Mountain Range, the ice and snow were melting.
Spring had come, everything was revived, and animals were awakening…
Ending the winter hibernation season.
Following Shenbing Peak, Danding Peak also started a strategic collaboration with the cafeteria. Under the guidance of the head chef, they prepared boxes of seasoning packets with materials supplied by Danding Peak, which were sent to Qiushui Pavilion.
Strangely enough.
These boxes of things were only seen going in, never coming out.
Before long, the courtyards were piled high.
During this period, Lord Qin had been busy, hosting dinners in one town after another every night, bringing this flavor into the dreams of the South Border populace.
“Ready to head out.”
In the courtyard, Ke Mo stroked the Kongming Multicolor Tower. The little tower had now accumulated seventeen layers.
Almost halfway to projecting the divine form.
This wasn’t just a seasoning packet; it was clearly the power of life that was about to be absorbed.
Of course, it wasn’t just for the power of life, Ke Mo’s assistant space had many resources that would also be delivered along with these goods.
Gentle reminder: To make it easier for everyone to choose books, the “Ranking” page on the website has been optimized; everyone can give it a try!
He hoped to do his best in this matter.
While waiting for Qin Yuzhi, Li Mo cooked a pack of instant noodles with the seasoning packets, squatting at the doorstep and slurping away.
The taste was certainly not as good as in his previous life, but it had a little more flavor.
For the citizens of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, this should be considered a dimensional strike.
“Is it good?”
A familiar and melodious voice suddenly came from behind.
Without needing to look back, Little Li knew who it was; he just felt like she seemed a bit… unfamiliar?
Today, the Ice Chunk wore a light red Yuehua dress, its flowing colors resembling moonlight raining down from the clouds. The hem of the skirt swayed beautifully, creating a kind of enchanting illusion that could easily dazzle…
What kind of flower would be black?
Perhaps there could be, but Little Li had seen very little and only discovered it today.
This dab of black added a touch of enchantment to the ethereal beauty of the elegant cave.
“Taste it.”
Li Mo placed the bowl on the table, quickly dodging to sit down, lest he accidentally scare her, frightening away the flowers and plants around.
“Hmm…”
Ying Bing lowered her gaze, gently tugging at her skirt.
She tied her hair neatly, picked up Li Mo’s used chopsticks, and took small bites of the noodles, her lips glimmering with a shiny layer.
It made one easily think of mosquito bites shaped like sealed imprints on her neck…
Moreover, everyone knew that materials of black flowers were usually uncommon, smooth to the touch, with the skirt leaving a mischievous gap.
Noticing that Little Li’s gaze had shifted somewhat.
Ying Bing’s neck turned slightly red; this time she was smart and didn’t tug on that skirt which had a tendency to slide down, crossing her legs slightly to obscure her modesty.
Little Ice Chunk didn’t seem to know there was a term called “just hiding half of the moon.”
Generally, the desires of a gentleman tended to be quite good; that kind of ambiguity would drive one mad:
“Why not just show a picture, d*mn!!”
Looking at the cool Cold Fairy, dressed in red with a black floral pattern, eating the noodles he made.
Li Mo had a perfectly poised expression: “Ice Chunk, I’m going to South Border.”
“Mm-mm, be… careful.” Ying Bing instructed.
Li Mo’s mouth was quicker than his brain: “When I get there, I want to… see the beautiful moon, and solidify the seal a bit.”
“?”
How could those two matters possibly have anything to do with each other?
“You see, the climate in the South Border is humid; there are a lot of mosquitoes.”
The little God Hammer Little Overlord was good at making excuses but felt nervous.
“Well… you can soak in the Mist Flower Rejuvenation Pool. If you get bitten by a mosquito, just soak for a while, and you’ll be fine.”
Ice Chunk replied coolly, but gazed down at her bowl, as if it held some secret.
“Are you saying I should reinforce the seal while bathing?”
Li Mo’s eyes lit up as he gave a thumbs up: “Ice Chunk, you’re so smart!”
“…..”
Ying Bing’s lovely eyes really wanted to roll at him.
Calling her smart while treating her like a fool?
She suddenly spoke seriously:
“Then close your eyes now, before you leave, I’ll reinforce the seal for you first.”
“Really?”
Poor Little Li had no idea everything happened so smoothly. It wasn’t even New Year; why were the gifts rolling in one after another?
He obediently closed his eyes, and soon felt a cool touch on his neck.
It wasn’t wet at all…
Hmm?
Li Mo opened his confused eyes and saw the Cold Fairy sizing him up, her autumn water eyes sparkling with a grin, like a cross between a smile and mischief.
The wicked Ice Chunk merely pinched his neck gently.
As expected, Ice Chunk’s outfit was black—indicative of dark transformation.
“Now hurry up; I also want to go to the Cold Pool.”
“Alright.”
Just about to head to the Imperial Capital, Li Mo guessed Ice Chunk was preparing some methods.
“Good.”
Ying Bing walked like a high-cold black cat victorious, her skirt fluttering as she exited Qiushui Pavilion, the spring breeze causing the fabric to cling to her form, outlining her tall and delicate silhouette.
Just at the doorway, she turned her gaze back and softly said:
“Good morning, good morning, if you’re late, the moon won’t be as nice.”
“!”
Li Mo suddenly looked up.
He really wanted to hear Ice Chunk affectionately call him ‘Big Brother Little Li,’ his face glowing with brightness:
“Can we have a double seal, then? Sister.”
“……”
Ying Bing’s eyelashes fluttered.
If she truly was a black cat, her tail would probably be standing up like it had been electrocuted right now.
She left without saying anything, yet it felt like she had said it all.
Not long after, Qin Yuzhi emerged from the side room, yawning. Having worked all night in her dream, she was forced to operate with this shameless boss during the day.
There was a hint of morning grumpiness about her.
“Oi, let’s go, Leader Li!”
If it weren’t for her voice lacking that roughness, she’d be rivaling Shang Wu’s.
“Wait a minute.”
Li Mo still sat there.
“You clearly asked me to start on time, now what’s going on?”
“I’m feeling a bit cocky right now.”
“???”
Qin Yuzhi looked confused.
Had she slept for thousands of years, or had the language of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths changed so much? She recognized every word but couldn’t quite grasp the meaning?
