Chapter 332
“Darling, where's the dictionary and my reading glasses? Bring them to me.”
“What for?”
“I want to find a good character in advance, so it’ll be easier to pick a name later…”
“Just forget it.”
Gu Xueqin shot him a glance.
Xiao Mo was fine, just a bit mischievous. When the private tutor sent him home, he mentioned that the kid was smart, but he just couldn’t manage him.
Li Dalong?
This was a guy who had been taught the same lesson eight times and still managed to turn ‘ren you suo cao’ (one has their own concerns) into ‘cao suo you ren’ (concerns everyone).
Oh right, the father and son were taught by the same private tutor.
.......
P.S.: Supplementing from yesterday morning.
**Chapter 362: What to Do If You’re Caught in the Ice Block’s Room at Night**
In the southern region, at the Senluo Valley Temple.
“Holy Son, this is what I’ve seen and heard today from my little brother-in-law.”
In the spot where Han Zhen once sat, Luo Yexian was now seated confidently, reporting to the Holy Son, his expression best described as ‘I did it on purpose, but it was an accident.’
After all, he had once delivered ‘human affairs’ to the immortal, and he felt that he was on the verge of soaring to great heights.
Across from him, the Holy Son’s figure swayed slightly as he looked at his floating little uncle, a hint of coldness flickering in his eyes, but he didn’t explode; instead, he seemed deep in thought.
Mountains of gold…
Heavenly materials and earthly treasures everywhere…
The innate Golden Crow…
The Nine Dragons Pulling the Palace!
Any one of these would be enough to shock the heavens and the earth!
But the Demon Summoning Holy Son was not so easily convinced. His deep voice echoed again:
“In this vast world, there’s no shortage of wonders. How can you be sure this isn’t an illusion?”
“For instance, the Holy Maiden Yin Mianmian of the Drizzle Tower, her body of heavenly demons, when in the external scene, transforms from reality to illusion, turning the illusory into reality. How do you know there aren’t similar treasures and methods?”
Luo Yexian revealed a confident smile:
“Holy Son’s nephew, you know me well enough to know I’m not one to easily trust others.”
“While wandering through the miscellaneous room of the Wanxiang Immortal Sect, I’ve already verified it.”
The master of the Beast Hall had rather dirty hands.
He pulled out a few items from his pocket.
A palm-sized piece of dog-head gold, a night pearl the size of a baby’s fist, and a jade bottle filled with six-patterned pills.
“I just grabbed these casually. If it were an illusion, they should have been exposed by now.”
The Demon Summoning Holy Son fell silent for a long time, unable to suppress the surging tide of excitement within him.
If this were true…
Wouldn’t he be back at the top of the Qianlong List in no time?
After a long silence, he finally spoke slowly:
“I will bring two Dharma Kings from the sect to investigate further.”
“And next time you convey official business, use proper titles!”
......
Pay attention, this man is called Xiao Li.
He was lying on his familiar bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep, staring at the ceiling and counting silver notes, hoping it would lull him to sleep.
Unfortunately, he neither succeeded in sleeping nor finished counting the silver.
“I haven’t practiced today, and I haven’t finished reviewing the battle with the Golden Crow projection.”
“It must be the guilt of not working hard enough that’s keeping me awake.”
Li Mo couldn’t help but lament how much he wanted to put in the effort.
When he finally became number one on the Qianlong List, he could proudly say it was all due to his sweat and hard work.
I wonder if Bing Tuozi is resting now…
Li Mo sat up straight and looked out the window. The room not far away was pitch black, the lights already off, with only a faint glow remaining.
“Did I misinterpret her?”
At dinner today, when Bing Tuozi left the table, she clearly gave him a look, as if she was waiting for him to make a move.
Thinking this, Li Mo quietly slipped out of his room, tiptoeing down the corridor.
The Li residence was large, and at night it was deserted, silent as the grave.
But after just a few steps, he heard footsteps ahead.
Li Mo jumped in surprise.
The other person was startled too:
“You little brat, what’s wrong with you? You walk without making a sound! You nearly scared me to death.”
“Dad, why are you wandering around at this hour?”
“What am I doing? I just came back from the outhouse. What do you think I’m doing, looking for food?”
“Hey, what a coincidence, I was just heading to the outhouse too… cough, to relieve myself.”
Li Mo chuckled and headed toward the outhouse.
“You little brat.”
Li Dalong tightened his belt, suspecting that his son was being dishonest, but he had no proof.
Watching his son hurry away, he could only mutter suspiciously and turn back to his room.
Behind the outhouse, hearing his father’s footsteps fade away, Li Mo finally let out a sigh of relief.
The fourth-ranked swordsman on the Qianlong List, returning home, would inevitably have moments of carelessness, but this was just a minor slip-up, nothing serious.
Confirming that there was no noise coming from his parents’ room, Li Mo made his way to Ying Bing’s room.
Little Li was feeling a bit guilty, sneaking around like a thief.
Even though he was in his own home, he didn’t know what he was stealing…
Creak—
The room wasn’t locked!
Moonlight poured into the chamber, which was as stark and cold as Bing Tuozi herself. Aside from the table, chairs, and bed, there were only the necessary tea utensils, nothing else.
It wasn’t that the Li family was stingy or cold.
In fact, because she was the daughter of an old friend, his parents treated Ying Bing with great care, even better than their own son, Xiao Li.
But Ying Bing had never liked unnecessary things.
Ying Bing was sitting on the bed, her jade phoenix-like aura calm and eternal, illuminating her face like a moon in a dream. Hearing the sound of the door, her eyelashes fluttered slightly, but she didn’t move.
As if she hadn’t heard anything.
Li Mo leaned in closer, studying the face of the cold fairy.
Why did it seem that the ethereal aura she always had was becoming even clearer lately?
It shouldn’t be an illusion…
They say girls change a lot by the age of eighteen; what more could Bing Tuozi change?
“Bing Tuozi, I’m here.”
Ying Bing gently pressed her lips together, took out a cushion from a large doll, placed it beside her, and patted it lightly.
“Come here.”
“Have you been waiting long?”
“Yeah, waiting for a gentleman to sneak into a lady’s room in the middle of the night.”
Li Mo felt a bit guilty under her gaze.
Speaking of which…
This chapter isn’t over yet; please click the next page to continue reading!
When he was at home, he had indeed entered Bing Tuozi’s room only a handful of times, let alone sitting on her bed.
“Bing Tuozi, let’s practice quickly.”
Li Mo grabbed her delicate hand, employing the art of topic diversion.
Ying Bing put away her jade phoenix and nodded slightly, the moonlight outside suddenly brightening.
Both of them were in their dual divine forms.
But the Taiyin divine form, as the first divine intent they were observing, remained the fundamental basis of their realm.
Li Mo had gained the ability to slightly slow down time and temporarily clear negative emotions, with even more mysteries waiting for him to explore.
The Taiyin divine form could complement any divine form.
Moreover, it could also complement Bing Tuozi’s own Taiyin divine intent…
The moon gradually drifted away from the zenith.
The two of them stopped in perfect harmony, and Teacher Bing Tuozi softly began to guide him, summarizing the battle style of the Golden Crow projection.
“Little Golden Crow, we’ll definitely take you down today!”
Li Mo said as he lay down, scratching his neck vigorously.
Had he just hidden behind the outhouse and gotten bitten by mosquitoes?
What kind of mosquitoes were so bold? It’s already winter!
The little world trembled.
Li Mo closed his eyes and peacefully drifted into slumber.
“.....”
Ying Bing parted her lips slightly and then gently bit down.
She wanted to say, what if Uncle and Aunt suddenly come in? If they see us in the morning, what should we say? We can’t just say he was sleepwalking…
But seeing that Li Mo had already fallen asleep in three seconds, with a slight blush on his neck.
Like a peach blossom.
The tranquility in Ying Bing’s eyes trembled slightly.
.......
P.S.: Some readers mentioned that things have been a bit dull lately, mainly because I just finished a small climax, and there’s a drop in the rhythm and emotions of the plot. But the climax is built up bit by bit.
This book is still less than halfway through, and there’s a lot more to write. I have a bit of confidence in this little story.
**Chapter 363: Who’s Bullying Our Little Princess Jiang’s New Great Saint Divine Power**
In the little world, the bright moon hung high.
After this part of the celestial palace scenery was formed, Li Mo simply stopped touching it, and the teaching area was changed to a martial arts arena shaped like Tai Chi Yin and Yang.
The Yin-Yang dojo was at the highest point of the celestial palace, appearing tranquil and mysterious under the night sky.
“It still feels a bit empty.”
Li Mo gazed at the silent celestial palace.
