The boudoir was quiet, with only the sound of a heartbeat. Moonlight lifted the window curtain, illuminating the Big-Headed Doll standing on the bedside table, making its head shine brightly.

"..."

A long silence followed.

The cold person felt the embrace surrounding her growing warmer and warmer.

The warm body felt the soft, fragrant jade in its arms growing colder and colder.

The same thought popped into their minds at the same time.

Broken.

It seems like the path is... getting further and further astray...

Even if you get up now, it's too late...

Ying Bing stared blankly, her eyes trembling slightly, like autumn waters just beginning to melt. No matter how expressionless her face was, it was inevitable that it would be stained with a deep red.

"I'll be quick."

She meant to neutralize both yin and yang energies.

"Um..."

Li Mo nodded subconsciously.

Then he felt the yang energy within his body slowly flowing again.

Suddenly, a tiny, seemingly intangible 'qi' appeared between the yin and yang energies.

This aura was unlike any true essence or Internal Breath energy he had ever seen; it was simple yet seemed eternally indestructible.

The Yin and Yang energies rotate endlessly and change infinitely, but after this 'energy' appeared, it seemed to instantly have a center, and began to slowly rotate around it.

The efficiency of dual cultivation suddenly increased significantly.

"Call..."

Li Mo finally relaxed a bit, lowered his gaze, and looked at her from this perspective for the first time.

The Ice Block nestled in his arms; she wasn't heavy at all, on the contrary, she was very light. Was her fairy-like body made of moonlight?

Her eyes closed at some point, her trembling eyelashes shimmering with starlight, and her delicate hands gripped his shoulders tightly.

Who says you can't scoop up the moon? Then what is he holding?

To be honest.

If it weren't for the real, cool sensation, Li Mo would have even doubted that it was a dream. And even if it were a dream, no one would dare to dream something so beautiful.

He initially invested in Ice Block primarily as a reward.

It's not that the Ice Block are bad.

On the contrary, Little Li, who was an ordinary person in his previous life, thought she was too good.

The Red Mandate of Heaven, the protagonist who will command the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths to submit in the future.

Li, an ordinary investor, felt that maintaining a purely platonic investment relationship was already quite remarkable.

But later...

"Li... Li Mo, stop thinking nonsense."

"Huh? I didn't..."

"But something is poking me..."

"You know, I've been learning weapon forging lately, and I'm forging iron every day, so it's reasonable for me to carry Hammer Treasure with me, right?"

Li Mo almost couldn't hold his tongue after he finished speaking. What on earth was he talking about?!

But the usually strict Ice Block actually nodded, though his expression was even more complicated.

Time passed slowly.

It seemed like a long time had passed, but Little Li felt that time had flown by. The yang energy he had accumulated from forging iron had been dissipated in such a short time.

Even if that aura is celestial, at least show some backbone!

A moment later, Ying Bing's voice rang out:

"Get up."

"Oh oh."

Li Mo didn't realize she was referring to herself getting up; she thought she was telling him to get up.

The Ice Block was still clinging to him.

"Li Mo, wait..."

Little Li, whose brain wasn't working properly, suddenly sat up in shock while on his deathbed.

Then, just as the Ice Block was about to slide down, he quickly reached out and caught it.

"!"

"Um?"

Li Mo was taken aback. Could the tactile sensation really be improved?

"Release..."

Ying Bing stared at his neck, practically wanting to bite it right there.

Ice Block's tone had always been aloof and cold, but now it was surprisingly fierce, so Li Mo let go of her and put his shirt back on.

By the time he finished putting on his Pure Yang Long Robe, Ying Bing had already gone back to bed, leaving him only with her cold back view.

"I'm going back now."

"..."

The Cold Fairy remained silent, as if she were asleep.

Does she also have her own secret technique to fall asleep in three seconds?

The boudoir was silent. Li Mo couldn't just stand there any longer. He had to suppress his doubts. He couldn't very well crawl into her bed and whisper in her ear to ask her questions.

So he bent over, and the dog stealthily slipped out of the boudoir.

Snap--

I heard the door close.

The seemingly aloof Cold Fairy on the bed seemed to have shrunk, slowly curling up into a ball.

Suddenly, as if remembering something, she kicked the Big-Headed Doll on the headboard with her snow-white foot, knocking it off the bed.

The door across the street was also closed.

Li Mo lay on the bed, his mind blank; he didn't even dare to sleep face down.

Wasn't all the yang energy completely dissipated and transformed into the Will Soul power within the acupoints?

Why does he have two heads and one big head?

Could it be that his talent for showing off in front of others has made Little Li want to do the same...?

Wait, Li, what are you trying to do!

Is this the kind of thinking a virtuous person should have?

You used to be so sunny and cheerful, you weren't like this before!

"Back to the Small World..."

A picture flashed before his eyes, and Li Mo's consciousness rapidly descended.

That evening.

Princess Little Jiang, clutching the Peach Wood Branch, walked towards the Yin-Yang Dojo, pondering how to deal with the giant Red Dragon that day.

Suddenly she was startled.

"I'm ready~ I'm ready~"

Let's go jellyfish catching together!

At this moment, in front of the Yin-Yang Dojo, a strange yellow cube and an equally strange pink star were talking.

Yeah, it's really weird that a yellow cube wears a shirt and tie while a pink star goes to catch jellyfish.

The Teacher Heavenly Venerable was standing right in front of this strange scene, watching intently.

"Teacher... what... what is this?"

"They were creatures of the ocean, but now they can no longer be seen in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths."

"Oh..."

In the past, her teachers would show her vivid images, such as the Heavenly Court of the past.

Could this also be a kind of demon that has disappeared into the long river of history?

"Teacher, what are you looking at them for?"

"These are my childhood memories, a past I can never return to."

The Teacher Heavenly Venerable spoke with a sense of vicissitude, gazing up at the starry sky at a forty-five-degree angle:

Seeing them reminds me of my innocent and naive self from the past... But I can never go back. Seeing Sandy, I even find her pretty...

"The teacher's tone today... sounded so deep... and she seemed a little tired."

Jiang Chulong tilted her head blankly.

"Alright, let's begin today's lesson!"

With a wave of his sleeve, the Heavenly Venerable vanished.

He turned around, and behind him, Red Dragon projection hovered in the air, its burning gaze fixed on the little girl holding the sword.

"How's your Dragon-Slaying Sword Art training going?"

"Yes... I've mastered about 30%, that's a small success."

"Alright, let's see how much of your power you can use, and whether you can slay the Red Dragon!"

Now that things are like this, I don't even dare to think about what I'll write in the future...
