Southern Border, Greenwood City.

The weather was fine and sunny, and the remaining snow that hadn't melted yet was shining brightly in the sunlight. However, there wasn't a single snowflake on the eaves of the Jiawei Restaurant; it had all melted long ago.

Perhaps it was because of the mysterious fluctuations that occasionally emanated from one of the side rooms.

The man Wife-Prospering Fighting Soul was unaware that another of his commendable titles had also been lost, and he was drifting further and further away from his dream of becoming Sword Immortal.

He is practicing dual cultivation.

With the balance of Yin and Yang, the effects of <Phoenix Singing in the Heavenly Marsh> were more than 10% better, and his injuries had recovered to about 70-80%.

That should be enough for today; we can set off to gather the Power of All Living Beings.

Little Li has made thorough preparations!

"Li Mo, why are you... staring at me?"

"Oh, that's one of my preparations too."

"?"

"Your aloof expression helps bystanders think I'm unfathomable, unlike anyone else out there."

Li Mo has now mastered the art of mimicking Ice Block's aloof demeanor to a degree of seventy percent!

He learned all of this through hard work, by staring at Ice Block's face during their dual cultivation sessions!

The three points they missed weren't mainly reflected in their faces.

He could never learn, and probably would never be able to, the blush on his neck...

As he spoke.

Li Mo revealed a refined, aloof, quiet, and profound expression.

Ice Block, icy expression – Little Li's version.

"Doesn't it look like one? Don't you think I suddenly have a divine aura?"

"..."

Ying Bing's beautiful eyes were lost in thought for a moment before she silently withdrew her hand and whispered:

"It's time to set off. Clan Leader Shang and the others should be waiting downstairs. Remember to take off your clothes."

"Take off your clothes?"

"Practice clothes can only be worn when practicing martial arts."

"But this is my best-looking outfit."

Li Mo touched the bright, golden sun pattern on his clothes, reluctant to leave.

He didn't have many clothes that fit him properly to begin with.

Some of the clothes were standard uniforms for disciples of the Clear Abyss Sect, one was sewn by her mother, and another was made by Princess Little Jiang.

But those clothes didn't suit his overall look at all.

Since it's about acting... well, collecting the Power of All Living Beings, then not only does the acting need to be on point, but the costumes, makeup, and props also need to be perfect.

That's right.

Our Golden Statue Award Best Actor winners don't just rely on their looks; they have exceptional professionalism.

The key point is that this is the same outfit that Ice Block is wearing.

Thinking this way, he felt incredibly proud.

"Then you can wear it."

Ying Bing tied up her hair, knowing that if Li Mo wanted to wear it, he would secretly change into it when they went out.

She instinctively reached out and smoothed out the wrinkles in his collar:

"Then you'd better come back soon, or you'll face the consequences."

"Um?"

Li Mo was puzzled.

What consequences could a piece of clothing have?

I don't really understand.

The two went downstairs together and arrived at the restaurant's lobby. The restaurant was bustling with activity, filled with Image-Mimicking Martial Arts practitioners.

However, it's not a big problem. Li Mo has some knowledge in this area and can integrate perfectly.

"These clothes..."

Wu Qing looked at the two people coming down the stairs, like a golden couple.

She raised an eyebrow, thinking about whether she should also order a set from Brother Feng, and asked:

"Xiao Mo, where did you get these clothes made, you two?"

"Um?"

Shang Qinqing immediately perked up and pulled out a handful of melon seeds from somewhere.

"Tsk, no wonder she didn't want that phoenix coronet and wedding gown from the previous dynasty's empress. Turns out there were more suitable ones. One is the sun, and the other Taiyin. How thoughtful of them."

Li Mo glanced at the Ice Block, coughed lightly, and said:

"This is my practice clothes, which also serve as my performance outfit."

Wu Qing: "?"

Is this how young people date these days?

Ying Bing lowered her eyes and said earnestly and calmly:

"Yes, it's more effective to practice while wearing it."

What kind of martial arts are you practicing?

Shang Qinqing, as expected of the goddess in charge of love in the Great Shang, once again keenly discovered the key point.

"Pair..."

Just as Li Mo opened his mouth, he suddenly felt a familiar touch on the back of his foot, as if Ice Block had gently stepped on him.

Ying Bing remained expressionless.

"Chief, you haven't eaten yet, have you? I'll go to the kitchen and make you some dishes."

"I know you meant to shut me up, but..."

Shang Qinqing pouted:

"Is it actually possible that... this is a cover-up?"

Seeing that Ice Block really seemed to be heading to the kitchen, Shang Qinqing stopped talking and called the group of Image-Mimicking Martial Arts practitioners to set off.

As Li Mo walked out of the restaurant, he inexplicably turned back.

He didn't know why he did it; it was just an instinctive reaction.

Then he saw a figure dressed in a black fairy dress standing on the second-floor window, looking right at him.

Their eyes met.

Li Mo smiled and waved, while Ying Bing nodded and then casually looked at the scenery elsewhere, but one could sense that her gaze lingered on it subtly out of the corner of her eye.

"I'll be back soon."

After saying this, Li Mo and the demons left the city together.

Still inside the city, they couldn't use their bloodline power, so they walked towards the city gate.

All along the way, the scenery of Greenwood City was peaceful and serene.

If you ignore the marks on the city walls, the peaceful scene here makes it hard to believe that not long ago, Greenwood City was on the verge of collapse.

"That's great."

A sense of peace rose in Little Li's heart.

I don't know if it was a sense of accomplishment, but he was just very happy.

Not long after.

They were approaching the city gate, where a large crowd had gathered, just like when Li Mo and Ying Bing had first arrived in Greenwood City.

"The Hidden Dragon Ranking has been released again?"

Li Mo felt a sense of familiarity, yet also a strange feeling.

Greenwood City is located on the very edge of Great Yu, and there is no Dragon Gate. How did the news travel so quickly?

Shang Qinqing smiled without saying a word.

Suddenly, a gasp of surprise erupted from the vast crowd.

The results are out!

"Is Young Hero Li here? I've come to see him."

"Tsk tsk, looking at the Hidden Dragon Ranking, there is no other young hero with the potential to defeat ten thousand men. Young Hero Li's deeds can be compared to the ancient Overlord!"

"Our Greenwood City has benefited from this, and now we can finally show our faces in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths."

The scene was incredibly lively, with onlookers intently gathering in three or four circles. Even the children who were going to the private school stopped to watch.

Young Hero Li himself couldn't see the list at all; he could only listen to it from outside.

"They're out!"

"Fourth, Young Hero Li is fourth!"

The people started to protest.

"Senior Guo, has my nickname changed?"

Li Mo asked the question that concerned him most.

Guo Chuan is an elder of the Giant Whale Clan. He is tall and has a long vision.

His expression was somewhat strange at this moment:

"It's changed."

"Both you and Miss Ying have changed."

What is it?

Wu Qing was also curious. She had longed to roam the martial world and leave a name for herself back then, but unfortunately she got married and had children along the way.

"Miss Ying's Moon Sword Phoenix is gone; it has been replaced by the Guye Goddess."

What about me?

"Your Dugu Strange Sword is gone."

"?"

"He turned into the Divine Hammer Little Overlord."

"???"

Li Mo's vision went black.

Please give me some money, mwah!
