**Clear Sky Realm**
The buildings in the inner city each have their own unique charm. Take the Wind Moon Small Residence, for example, it resembles an exquisite porcelain vase, while Wanchun Courtyard is always abloom with the vibrant colors of spring, where flowers compete for attention.
From the airy, lace-like structures, one can catch glimpses of flowers, each showcasing its own beauty, hanging in mid-air.
Just the thought of working in such a stylish and high-end place made even the errand boy carrying night fragrance puff his chest out with pride.
“Honorable customer… oh, Young Hero Li!”
The little servant immediately deflated his proud chest as a face of standard flattery and sycophancy took over, showcasing his solid professional skills:
“The boss is waiting for you upstairs, please, please, please!”
“Thanks.”
“Don’t mention it! You’re not trying to take a decade off my life, are you? It’s an honor for a little man like me to guide you…”
Freshly hit on the cheek, the little servant looked a bit frightened.
In his experience, when a guest utters words like “thanks,” it usually meant they were expressing dissatisfaction.
“… Let’s go, let’s go.”
Li Mo glanced around at the familiar scene beside him, the same as the Wind Moon Small Residence — with beautiful women as the main attractions.
He didn’t say much, just slipped a silver note to the little servant and let him lead the way.
Word must’ve spread because everywhere Li Mo went, he could feel the eyes of many workers from Wanchun Courtyard on him.
If someone else was in charge, where would they go?
Could this top tavern in the Imperial Capital continue to support them?
At the top floor, in the Peony Flower Room.
Once he pushed the door open, the chaos from yesterday seemed to vanish, replaced by an array of fruits and vegetables.
A beautiful middle-aged woman sat there, observing the young man who had just entered.
She couldn’t be described as gracefully fading since her charm retained just the right balance of allure and maturity. A beauty mark at the corner of her lips added a touch of danger and allure.
A truly wicked woman!
“Little Li Langjun, such skill! Several gentlemen have written to me, is it heroic to bully a lonely weak woman like myself?”
She finished speaking, taking a puff from her pipe, smoke billowing from her red lips and shrouding her face in a haze.
The smoke wasn’t suffocating; instead, it carried a faint rose fragrance. The kind that comes with a sting.

**【Recent Encounter: Received letters from high-ranking officials in court, urging her to relinquish her industries, intending to collude with Yin Mianmian to control the instigator, Li Mo, as her pawn….】**
“…….”
Li Mo leaned back slightly.
His instincts told him something was off, prompting him to take a glimpse with the Celestial Vision.
What he discovered was quite alarming.
Did he really need to say… “I’m done with Wanchun Courtyard?” Such drunken ramblings wouldn’t let him escape, would they?
Clearly, not.
In the Late Stage of the Law Body, he had no chance of winning a fight, and whether he could slip into a small world depended on if she wasn’t keeping her attention glued to him…
How to handle this?
“Don’t flaunt your little tricks, Su Yao.”
Li Mo plopped himself down opposite her, pouring tea leisurely, appearing as nonchalant as an ice chunk.
The best leading man of the Qingyuan Sect had entered the stage without a sound.
Silken and smooth, even seasoned actors would break a sweat.
“Or should I say… Luo Ji?”
“?”
Luo Ji’s expression froze for a moment, then she smiled and said:
“Little Li Langjun is joking, do I resemble the woman that piques your interest? I don’t know anyone….”
Li Mo shook his head: “That poison doesn’t work on me.”
As soon as his words dropped,
The atmosphere in the hall solidified, with only the sound of stringed instruments and flowing melodies.
Li Mo noticed the beautiful woman across from him suddenly vanished.
In the silence, vibrant flowers bloomed, their beauty and fragrance intoxicating, tempting one to drift away into an eternal slumber amidst a sea of blossoms…
Sweet, endless abyss, tendrils crept up Li Mo’s limbs, sprouting budding flowers.
“…..”
Li Mo furrowed his brow a bit, seemingly unamused, but made no move, instead letting her do her thing.
Blending into the surrounding scene, Luo Ji narrowed her eyes slightly.
The implication was clear; he wasn’t afraid of her poison and must have something up his sleeve.
“Under heaven, what kind of tricks can allow an Observation Realm to resist my external aura?”
If anyone had told Luo Ji that previously, she would’ve scoffed.
But the person before her was currently the most dazzling Young Hero in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
Besides, if he were unprepared, how could he have casually revealed his identity?
She didn’t dare to make any rash moves.
This was the Imperial Capital, close to the royal palace.
If exposed, she might not d*e but would shed several layers of skin.
But…
Whoosh—
The tendrils wrapping around Li Mo finally blossomed the first flower.
This poison didn’t harm the body, but rather targeted the heart.
Using the deepest evil thoughts within one’s heart, it lulled them into sleep amidst flowers.
God Hammer Little Overlord, the husband-magnet champion, what vile thoughts did he harbor deep inside?
The flower fully bloomed.
The image revealed was little Li Mo, throwing a firecracker into the toilet, causing the ancient elder inside to erupt in a sharp scream…..
Luo Ji: “?”
This was his innermost evil thought?
What kind of nonsense was this!
But soon after, Luo Ji let out a sigh of relief.
Whoosh—
Another flower bloomed.
“He still has more…”
Before Luo Ji could regain her icy smirk, it froze in place.
In the picture, little Li was rubbing a long, fair, snowy foot, belonging to the Cold Fairy.
It seemed to trigger a chain reaction.
Flowers bloomed everywhere.
Every flower bore a face, each one a flawless beauty of heavenly descent.
Let’s be honest.
This slightly blurred face on the flowers made all the surrounding charms lose their colors, making them unworthy in comparison.
Luo Ji: “…..”
After a moment of silence.
Li Mo gradually grew tense inside, but suddenly felt a wave of relaxation wash over him.
When he opened his eyes, he found the Peony Pavilion back to normal. Luo Ji across the table was staring at him, deep in thought, looking incredulous.
“See? I told you….”
“I believe you were well-prepared.”
Luo Ji squinted, her hoarse voice wavering with dangerous intent: “Little Li Langjun, you’ve shown me your tricks, no wonder even high-ranking officials in the court are speaking for you. Thanks for the lesson.”
This must be some kind of trick! And Li Mo must have done it on purpose!
Who harbored such deep evil thoughts about throwing firecrackers in toilets, rubbing the Cold Fairy’s feet, and longing to nibble on her ears?
She couldn’t bear to see what happened next!
The more she looked, the more it seemed that all that she saw was what he wanted her to see!
Husband-magnet champion, truly wicked!
