"This is called a combat suit?"
Ying Bing lowered her eyes, looking at the clothes on the table, lost in thought.
It was a garment in the style of Southern Border, no, even a little more vulgar than Southern Border, except this time it was a revealing bunny girl outfit, a blend of innocent allure and aloofness...
And it fulfilled Little Li wish to make socks out of the Black Cloud Gauze.
The Cold Fairy was well-traveled and knowledgeable; she had seen this kind of clothing before.
She even wore the clothes she had taken a bath in.
The problem is...
Wearing this outfit means you're going to... what kind of battle?
Do you want this system to automatically put it on for you?
"No..."
Remembering the system's tendency to take things out of context, the cautious Cold Fairy only uttered one word.
[Okay, just a reminder, this reward needs to be completed today.]
[The system will not automatically equip this item next time; the host will need to equip it manually upon encountering the winner.]
"?"
Ying Bing's phoenix eyes froze, a question mark appearing on them.
First of all, she had no idea how to wear these clothes, because the more colorful the clothes, the more complicated they were.
Then...
Wouldn't that mean wearing it in front of him?
"..."
Meanwhile, in the Senluo Valley of Southern Border.
The place remained shrouded in thick fog, the wind biting like a knife, as if the changing seasons had no effect on this place.
"How is that possible?! I clearly killed him with my own hands!"
Zhu Renji's cross-eyed eyes widened in surprise.
"But could the Divine Hammer Little Overlord on the Hidden Dragon Ranking be a fake?!"
Luo Yexian snorted coldly, his expression unfriendly.
"Holy Son, please say something, Holy Son!"
"You clearly saw with your own eyes that I reduced him to nothingness, leaving only a single hair!"
Zhu Renji's face was filled with disbelief.
"I saw it, but all I know is that I entrusted the task to you, and you failed."
The Demon Summoning Holy Son, Tan Zhuyin, said with a grim expression, "He is still alive, while we have not only promised the Power of All Living Beings in the Southern Border, but also suffered heavy casualties, and at the same time, we have not gained anything from Lanke Mountain!"
"This..."
Zhu Renji wasn't stupid; he understood what the Holy Son meant.
The Demon Summoning Cult's trip to the Cloud Dream Underground Palace was a complete disaster.
The two Dharma Kings were seriously injured, and the people they brought with them barely escaped with their lives. They even threatened the Power of All Living Beings, yet they gained no benefit whatsoever.
The headquarters will definitely send someone to hold them accountable; someone has to take the blame.
Zhu Renji's survival instinct exploded, and his intelligence reached its peak:
"Holy Son, we haven't come away empty-handed."
"Um?"
"That bead! That bead! We went through so much trouble to steal it!"
"You're making me even angrier!"
Tan Zhuyin took out the stone bead from his waist, intending to smash it on the ground, but then couldn't bear to.
"What's the point of this thing?!"
"Holy Son, if it is a divine object, it must be extraordinary. What if we haven't found the right method?"
"Why don't we ask our immortal brother?"
Luo Yexian made the suggestion first.
"Hmph, a bunch of idiots! Useless trash!"
A cold snort suddenly came from behind him. Tan Zhuyin was already furious. Who the hell was so arrogant as to dare to insult this Holy Son?
He turned around angrily, his tone sinister:
"Greetings, Vice Leader!"
The newcomer was dressed in white, with a long, flowing beard, and looked like an ordinary schoolteacher.
But those who frequented the Demonic Cult would recognize him as Yuwen Cuojin, one of the three infamous vice leaders of the Demon Summoning Cult.
"You should call me Master Yuwen."
"Yes, Vice Master Yuwen."
"A mere Divine Observation Realm has caused such a disturbance to an entire branch of our sect, resulting in such heavy losses."
Yuwen Cuojin's voice was deep and resonant. "Holy Son, how will you explain this to the main altar?"
"..."
Tan Zhuyin held up the 'waste stone bead'.
"You've all been deceived! You call yourselves members of the Demonic Sect? I'm ashamed of you!"
Yuwen Cuojin really wanted to slap these people to death.
"So many people died, and you still eagerly handed over the Power of All Living Beings, only to get a broken stone in return. Aren't you going to wake up yet?"
"But my immortal brother is very powerful..."
"Alright, then call him out here and let me see what makes him call himself an immortal!"
The snow and ice in the Clear Abyss Mountain Range are melting.
Spring has arrived, all things are coming back to life, and the animals have arrived too...
The season of ending hibernation.
Following Divine Weapon Peak, Cauldron Peak also launched a strategic partnership with the canteen. Under Chef Li's professional guidance, they used materials provided by Cauldron Peak to prepare boxes of seasoning packets and delivered them to the Autumn Water Pavilion.
That's really strange.
These boxes of things have only ever gone in; they've never been seen coming out.
Soon, the yard was filled with piles of stuff.
During this time, Master Qin was busy, hosting banquets in town after town every night, bringing this flavor to the dreams of the people of Southern Border.
"Ready to go."
In the courtyard, Li Mo touched the Empty-Bright Myriad-Color Pagoda, which now had seventeen stories.
It's almost halfway to the projected Great Dao Divine Form.
This isn't a seasoning packet; it's clearly the Power of All Living Beings about to be absorbed!
Of course, it's not just for the sake of Power of All Living Beings; Li Mo's System Space also contains many other resources that will be distributed along with these items.
He hoped to do this matter to the best of his ability.
While waiting for Qin Yuzhi, Li Mo cooked a packet of instant Instant Noodles with the seasoning packet and squatted by the doorstep, slurping them down.
The taste is definitely not as good as in the previous life, but it has a better aroma.
For ordinary people across the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, this should be considered a dimensional reduction attack.
Is it delicious?
A familiar, clear voice suddenly came from behind.
Without even turning around, Little Li knew who was coming, but he seemed a little... unnatural?
Today, Ice Block is wearing a light red moon-painted dress. The skirt is decorated with various colors, like moonlight shining on clouds and rain. The hem of the skirt sways gracefully, creating a scene that is quite dazzling... Hmm?
What kind of flower is black?
It's possible, but Little Li and has never seen it before; he only saw it today.
This touch of black gave the ethereal, secluded orchid a bewitching allure...
"Try it."
Li Mo placed the bowl on the table, then quickly sat down as if anticipating something, so as not to scare anyone or anything, including the flowers and plants.
"Um..."
Ying Bing lowered her eyes and gently tugged at the hem of her skirt.
She tied her hair up, picked up the chopsticks Li Mo had used, and slurped the noodles with small bites, her lips glistening.
It easily evokes the image of the mark left by a mosquito bite on the neck...
Moreover, as everyone knows, black floral patterns are usually made of special materials, very silky smooth, and the skirt hem has a playful gap.
I noticed that Little Li's eyes were somewhat unfocused.
Ying Bing's neck turned slightly red. This time, she learned her lesson and decided not to lift the skirt that kept slipping down. Instead, she crossed her legs to subtly cover herself.
But Ice Block obviously didn't know the phrase "still holding a pipa, half-concealing her face."
Upright gentlemen usually have a better imagination, especially the kind that is subtle and ambiguous, which can inspire an almost insane idea in someone's mind:
"You fucking should at least post a picture! Damn it!!"
Looking at the aloof and serene Cold Fairy, with black flowers hidden beneath her crimson moon-colored dress, she was eating the noodles she had made herself.
Li Mo, with a perfectly upright and gentlemanly expression, said, "Ice Block, I'm going to Southern Border."
"Yes, be... careful," Ying Bing instructed.
Li Mo's mouth moved faster than his brain. "On the way back, I want to... see the beautiful moon, and while I'm at it, reinforce the seal."
"?"
These two things don't seem to have anything to do with each other at all.
"You know, the climate in Southern Border is humid, and there are a lot of mosquitoes."
Having perfected his body refinement, the Divine Hammer Little Overlord, whose physique resembled a renowned weapon, was both guilty and stubborn.
"Then... you can soak in the Mist Flower Ageless Spring; if you get bitten by mosquitoes, a soak there will cure it."
Ice Block spoke in a cool, aloof tone, but his eyes were fixed on the bowl of noodles, as if there was some secret hidden inside.
"You mean reinforcing the seal while taking a bath?"
Li Mo's eyes lit up, and he gave a thumbs up. "Ice Block, you're really smart!"
"..."
Ying Bing's beautiful eyes now seemed to want to roll her eyes at him.
You say I'm smart, but do you really think I'm stupid?
She suddenly said very seriously:
"Now close your eyes. Before you leave, I'll reinforce the seal for you."
"Real?"
Poor Little Li didn't expect everything to go so smoothly. It's not even Chinese New Year yet, how come he's receiving gift after gift?
He obediently closed his eyes, and soon felt a cool touch on his neck.
It's just not moist...
Li Mo opened his eyes blankly, only to see Cold Fairy scrutinizing him, her narrowed eyes gleaming with a half-smile.
The wicked Ice Block simply pinched his neck lightly with her bare hand.
As expected, the Ice Block's clothes were black underneath—referring to his corruption.
"Go quickly, I need to go to the Cold Pool too."
"All right."
Li Mo was about to head to the Imperial Capital, and he figured Ice Block needed to prepare some strategies.
"Good."
Like a victorious, aloof black cat, Ying Bing walked out of the Autumn Water Pavilion, her skirt fluttering. In the spring breeze, her clothes clung to her body, outlining her tall and exquisite figure.
She turned back only after reaching the door and said softly:
"Go early and come back early, otherwise... the moon won't be as beautiful."
"!"
Li Mo suddenly looked up.
Little Li the Gentleman, who really wanted to hear Bing Tuo call him "brother," had a radiant smile on his face.
"Can it be sealed twice, sister?"
"..."
Ying Bing's eyelashes trembled.
If she really were a black cat, her tail would probably be standing straight up like she'd been electrocuted.
She left without saying a word, yet it was as if she had said everything.
Not long after, Qin Yuzhi came out of the side room yawning. She had already been working in her dreams that night, but today she still had to accompany her unscrupulous boss who was forced to work.
I'm a little grumpy when I wake up.
"Hey, let's go, Sect Master!"
If her voice weren't so deep, she'd almost be as good as Shang Wu.
"Wait a moment."
Li Mo remained seated.
"You were the one who told me to start work on time, what's wrong with you now?"
"I'm getting a little arrogant right now."
"???"
Qin Yuzhi looked puzzled.
She's been asleep for thousands of years. Have the languages of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths changed that much? How come I recognize the characters but can't understand the language?
