Ice Chunk didn’t know what he was saying, but Ling Mo heard it clearly.
As everyone knows, Little Ke has long surpassed his past, his martial arts accomplishments no longer comparable to his former self.
Moves like “Luring the Moon from the Bottom of the Sea,” he can execute effortlessly.
He held Ice Chunk around the waist and lifted her up horizontally.
Strange.
Why does Ice Chunk seem noticeably softer than before? It feels so fitting… Moreover, the ripples in her eyes make one want to hold her tighter, making one’s teeth itch with desire.
Little Ke’s mouth had its own thoughts, wanting to bury himself in her and take a bite.
“Wait a moment.” Ying Bing came back to her senses and quickly pressed his face.
“What’s wrong?”
Ling Mo looked very serious, as if eating ice was some kind of sacred and solemn matter.
“There’s still your bl**d on your clothes, unwashed.” Ice Chunk covered her big head doll, seemingly cold, but her tense fingers curled up.
Ling Mo looked at her chest and coughed lightly: “Actually, I’m not that hungry, just my teeth are a bit itchy.”
“In the evening, you can stew a pot of spicy ginger chicken feet, and then dig in.”
“I don’t think chicken feet will be much help.”
Ling Mo called for a somersault cloud without any change in expression.
Now, he’s at least a top-notch childish ghost, even the somersault cloud is multicolored, looking much cooler.
Ying Bing pursed her lips and shifted her attention:
“The imperial mausoleum connects to the outside of Qingyuan, but there are formations. I’ll guide you.”
“Alright.”
Clouds carried the person away gracefully.
Xue Jing standing on the spot: “?”
Shang Wu who just crawled out of the tomb: “?”
Still in the fourth realm, still at the top of the Qianlong List, still among the top swordsmen, how could they miss these two people?
…
“It seems like we forgot something…”
On the sea of clouds, the moonlight painted the Qingyuan mountain range with silver stars, blurring the line between heaven and earth.
Cicadas chirped, and a gentle breeze brushed past.
Just breaking through the fourth realm, Ling Mo felt the vastness of the sky, letting his spirit soar.
But when he looked down.
He saw her black hair dancing in the wind, making her clear and cold beauty look hazy in the moonlight.
He felt that the height of the sky and the depth of the earth were not as important anymore.
Who wouldn’t be confused seeing this?
Who could have imagined that she, viewed as a deity or demon in the Taiyin, would be in his arms, showing such a look?
Speaking of which, what realm is Ice Chunk in?
“Fourth realm… Is there anything wrong with my inner scene?”
Ling Mo hadn’t expected to break through the fourth realm in this way.
“It looks quite cool.”
“What?”
“Your inner scene, I haven’t seen anything like it before. However, judging from the strange scenes, besides suppressing others’ inner scenes, it should have other uses.”
Ying Bing lay in his arms and spoke about some basic knowledge of inner scenes.
They were all basic, but Shang Wu definitely hadn’t taught them.
“After breaking through the inner scene, it divides into nine heavens. One must understand the connection between one’s inner scene and the world, achieving harmony with nature. If one can achieve oneness with the universe, then progress will be twice as fast.”
“Oneness with the universe is not difficult, and you can do it too, but there is one thing that worries me.”
“Ninth Heaven and Tenth Earth don’t seem to correspond with your inner scene. You might have to take a very difficult path…”
As he spoke, Ying Bing suddenly paused, hearing Ling Mo’s heartbeat growing louder.
Moreover, the somersault cloud can teleport for thousands of miles. Why haven’t they reached the ground yet?
Then Ice Chunk raised her head and found that Little Ke wasn’t listening at all but was looking at her chest with a starving look.
“… What’s wrong with you?”
Ying Bing’s gaze trembled.
Li Mo said casually, “Oh oh, I haven’t eaten anything lately. Just broke through a realm, so now I’m very hungry.”
“Why do you keep looking at me?”
“Looking at you makes me think of food. Have you heard of ‘beautiful enough to eat’? I think this phrase has some truth.”
What does it mean to be a peerless beauty?
So beautiful enough to eat, no problem.
Little Li’s profound use of language is impressive.
“?”
Ying Bing turned her head, looking at the distant palace, and said softly,
“It seems like we’re getting further apart.”
“No, Ice Chunk, you don’t know the way. Just trust me.”
“But after so long, running would have gotten us there by now.”
“Sis… Could I also get lost?”
“Everyone is waiting for you on Dengfeng. They might come looking for you soon.”
If someone comes looking for them, Li Mo’s words won’t be able to hold back.
“Oh?”
In the end, Li Mo rode on the cloud and arrived at the Great Hall of Qingyuan Peak.
He truly didn’t know everyone was on Dengfeng. After all, when the Qingyuan Sect discussed inviting the South Border Monster Clan and protecting the sect, Little Li was still watching the ice chunk in Taiyin.
Huh?
Seeing the puzzled crowd, Li Mo cleared his throat and gently put down Ice Chunk, revealing a gentlemanly smile.
“Young Hero Li, you and Cold Fairy…”
“She is tired.”
“He is hungry.”
The two spoke in unison.
The South Border Monster Clan members were excited: “Ah?”
The martial arts friends who protected them: “Cough…”
Shang Qinqing and Qin Yuzhi’s smiles grew more rampant: “Hey, heyhey…”
The elders of the Qingyuan Sect sighed.
Seeing that Shang Wu and Xue Jing had arrived, they vaguely knew what was happening.
Li Dalong and his wife exchanged glances; tonight, they weren’t sure if he’d sleep in their room, but he definitely wouldn’t be alone… Should they move out for a while?
Li Mo sincerely bowed to everyone:
“Thank you all today…”
When he looked at the familiar faces, he hesitated and stopped.
Letting him act and talk like a villain, he genuinely wanted to say thank you, but didn’t know what to say.
“Hahaha, all of us are just wandering souls. Young Hero Li, breaking through a realm, why be so sentimental!”
“No need to say more, we did nothing today but witnessed a grand spectacle. Why worry?”
“Just treat us to a drink someday.”
“Is our Li Mansion too small for so many people? Sis… No, I need to buy the neighboring houses…”
“So, what kind of bloodline will be produced by the union of the True Dragon and True Phoenix?”
Everyone followed along, laughing.
Ying Bing looked cold and disheartened, pursing her lips, feeling her heart more troubled.
Li Mo, who was hungry earlier, now didn’t know how to deal with everyone’s enthusiasm.
He looked at the King of South Border, seriously asking:
“You came from the Imperial Capital. Does His Majesty have any rewards?”
“Yes, you asked the right person.”
The King of South Border thought this young man’s insight was indeed sharp, knowing such details.
He reached into his pocket and pulled out an imperial edict.
