As the smoke cleared, Qing Mo and Luo Qingyang returned their swords to their sheaths one after another. However, Qing Mo's left hand was behind him, while his right hand, holding the Lethe, remained motionless!
However, when Luo Qingyang's " Nine Songs " returned to its sheath, he himself had to take dozens of steps back before he could finally stop!
Finally, Luo Qingyang knelt on the ground with his head down. When he raised his head, blood trickled from his mouth and face, showing that he had been injured by the attack.
Qing Mo then tucked the < Lethe > back into his waistband and said softly, "Immortal Sword, you flatter me!"
Luo Qingyang slowly stood up, clasped his hands slightly to Qing Mo, and said, " The Immortal Sword Technique is astonishing! I admire it!"
I never imagined that Luo's Desolate Sword, honed through so many years of painstaking practice, would be defeated by a mere casual release of desolate intent from Immortal. Alas...!
Luo Qingyang was somewhat dejected at this moment, but Qing Mo said, "Immortal Swordsman, there's no need to be like this. You must have gained some insights from that battle just now, right?"
Now that you've broken through your bottleneck, all you need to do is find what I told you before. Breaking through to the Divine Travel realm will then be a natural progression!
Luo Qingyang nodded slightly. He had just gained a deeper understanding of the desolation he felt. He planned to experience human emotions on his way to Heavenly Revelation City, just to make his desolation feel complete!
Before Luo Qingyang could react, Qing Mo had already arrived beside Luo Qingyang and placed a hand on his shoulder. Luo Qingyang was somewhat confused by Qing Mo's behavior!
While the others were wondering what Qing Mo planned to do to Luo Qingyang, Qing Mo glanced at the spectators not far away and then whispered to Luo Qingyang, "Lone Sword Immortal, come with me to talk about something?"
There are a lot of people here, shall we have a private conversation?
After hearing Qing Mo's words, Luo Qingyang glanced at the spectators and nodded, saying, "Alright! We'll all obey the Immortal!"
While Qing Mo and Luo Qingyang were whispering to each other in the distance, Xie Xuan was busy writing down the poem that Qing Mo had just recited!
As Xie Xuan finished writing a poem, the others came forward one after another. Looking at the poem, they once again understood why Qing Mo exuded such a desolate feeling!
At this moment, Qing Mo and Luo Qingyang were standing at a distance with their backs to the spectators. Qing Mo took out a wooden box, which was slightly larger than the palm of his hand, from his sleeve and handed it to Luo Qingyang.
Qing Mo then said, "This is for you! You can give it to your loved one as a gift when you bring her home!"
Luo Qingyang was initially a little embarrassed to take it, but Qing Mo continued, "This thing doesn't exist in this world, and there's nothing wrong with taking the initiative with the woman you like!"
If your godson ever asks you to deal with Xiao Se and his gang, please go easy on them. A little punishment is fine, just don't kill them!
Hearing this, Luo Qingyang, who had originally intended to take it, hesitated again. Qing Mo, however, was not going to waste any more breath and simply shoved the wooden box into Luo Qingyang's arms!
The latter took the box and looked at it. After opening it, he found that it was actually a makeup box. Of course, Luo Qingyang didn't know what it was; it was just Qing Mo explaining it to him!
Then Luo Qingyang remembered that he hadn't seen his junior sister for so long. He figured she would really like this, so he didn't refuse anymore and immediately accepted it!
Then Qing Mo told him that Xiao Yu was not King's Decree. As long as Luo Qingyang investigated properly, he would definitely not even have the thought of helping Xiao Yu, since Xiao Yu had even schemed against his mother!
Xie Xuan looked at the poem in his hand and couldn't help but nod repeatedly. He then said, "I never imagined that the Immortal's cultivation was so high, and even his literary talent was so outstanding!"
Lord Baili, could you please bring two jugs of good wine later? Just for this poem, we should raise Da Bai!
Looking at the poem, Baili Dongjun nodded repeatedly and said, "Indeed, we should have Da Bai of wine! There's plenty! Give me this poem later, and I'll frame it and hang it in my tavern!"
Upon hearing Baili Dongjun's words, Xie Xuan immediately tucked the poem into his sleeve and said, "You wish! You want to write it yourself!"
The poem's imagery is extraordinary; I myself can't get enough of it!
After resting for two days, Luo Qingyang bid farewell to the people of Snow Moon City and headed alone towards Heavenly Revelation City. On the way, he planned to verify the truth of what Qing Mo had told him about Xiao Yu and to slowly experience the emotions of humanity!
Several young people gathered in front of the gate of Snow Moon City. Baili Dongjun and Qing Mo stood in front of the young people who were about to set sail. After they returned from the overseas immortal mountains, they would go to the temple of Tianqi to compete in wits and courage!
After the others had finished explaining, Qing Mo approached Tang Lian, patted him on the shoulder three times, and then said softly, " Tang Lian, as the senior brother, you are responsible for taking good care of your junior brothers and sisters this time!"
Upon hearing Qing Mo's instructions, Tang Lian quickly bowed and clasped his hands in greeting, saying, "Please rest assured, Immortal, I will definitely take good care of them!"
In fact, when Qing Mo patted Tang Lian's shoulder three times, he left three tiny strands of divine thought within his body as a precaution for unforeseen circumstances!
After all, this time it won't be like the original story. Baili Dongjun will not appear on the island where Mo Yi lives. In the original story, he went to the overseas immortal mountain in order to meet Yueyao in his dream!
However, this Qing Mo directly revived Yueyao, so Baili Dongjun no longer needed to go out to sea to find any medicinal ingredients. Everything would have to be faced by these young people on their own!
Moreover, according to the original novel, in order to ensure Xiao Se's safe return to Tianqi, Tang Lian single-handedly blocked the assassins from the Dark River using only " Seven Cups of Starry Night Wine "!
That battle nearly cost him his life. Fortunately, someone managed to protect his heart meridian, but even though he survived, he was completely devoid of martial arts skills!
Qing Mo wasn't sure if Later Tang, so he left a divine thought within him. This wasn't just to protect Tang Lian, but also to leave Xiao Se and the others with a trump card!
Besides, Qing Mo didn't want to see Tang Lian like in the original novel, after all, Tang Lian was called "the best senior brother in the world" by countless fans of Yan Zu and Yi Fei!
Qing Mo nodded after hearing Tang Lian's words, then looked at Xiao Se and said softly, "Take good care of my little apprentice. The sea is rough and the waves are high, so be careful at all times!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Se slightly clasped his hands in a fist salute to Qing Mo, but Sikong Qianluo immediately said, "Master! I don't want this money-grubber to take care of me!"
He's injured himself; he's lucky if he can even take care of himself. What's with the talk of taking care of me? It should be this young lady taking care of him!
Sikong Changfeng stood with his hands on his hips, looking completely self-righteous, leaving Qing Mo and Sikong Changfeng helpless. Then Qing Mo laughed and said, "Alright, alright! You take care of him, keep a close eye on him, and don't let the waves blow him overboard!"
Upon hearing Qing Mo's words, Sikong Qianluo immediately patted her budding chest and said proudly, "Master, don't worry! I'll take good care of this money-grubber and make sure he doesn't get blown into the sea!"
At this moment, Xiao Se looked at Sikong Qianluo with a gentle expression. Xiao Se didn't intend to refute what she had just said. What difference did it make who took care of whom?
Then Qing Mo said to Lei Wujie, " Lei Wujie, you have a lively personality, so don't get too caught up in the scenery when you're out there."
Remember to take good care of your future wife; she doesn't know any martial arts!
Lei Wujie listened to Qing Mo's words and then looked at Ye Ruoyi standing to the side. The latter did not feel that it was inappropriate for Qing Mo to call her Lei Wujie's wife. She also liked Lei Wujie!
Immediately, Lei Wujie patted his chest and made a promise to Qing Mo. Just before the youths were about to set off, Xiao Se was pulled aside by Qing Mo, who seemed to have something to say to him alone!
Qing Mo and Xiao Se walked to the side, Qing Mo then said softly to Xiao Se, "After you finish this trip, you should go back to Heavenly Revelation City!"
When it really comes down to whether or not you should sit in that chair, you need to think it over carefully. I've also talked to Lone Sword Immortal about some things. You can do whatever you want when the time comes!
Hearing Qing Mo's words, Xiao Se nodded, then said softly, "I'll think about it carefully. You've told us so much all at once, are you planning to...?"
Qing Mo nodded and then said, "That's right. By the time you come back, I'll most likely have already left. You just need to know this yourself!"
"Take good care of my disciple; she's my first student. Don't let her down! How you walk your future paths is entirely up to you!"
When Xiao Se heard that Qing Mo planned to leave, he knew that it meant leaving this world, since Qing Mo didn't belong here. However, when that day actually came, he still felt a little reluctant to leave!
Finally, Qing Mo gave Xiao Se a brocade pouch containing a bottle of potion to restore mental energy and a resurrection coin (produced in the Penguin Farm). The potion could help Mo Yi's exhausted spirit!
The resurrection coin was meant to bring his beloved sister back to life. However, Qing Mo instructed Xiao Se to use the " Heart Demon Guidance " if things went wrong, and to only give it to him after Mo Yi had healed him and Ye Ruoyi and recognized Ye Ruoyi as his sister!
After doing all this, Qing Mo and his group watched the departing youths go. Then, the Wuxin came to the front of the group and gave them a slight Buddhist salute.
Then the Wuxin little monk said softly, "Now that Xiao Se and Lei Wujie have set off, it's time for this humble monk to head to Heavenly Revelation City as well!"
Thank you all for your guidance and support during this time. Wuxin go now!
The others nodded in agreement, Qing Mo said softly, "Little monk, be careful on the road!"
Remember, after you've taken care of everything, go back to Coldwater Temple. Your senior brother is still waiting for you there!
Wuxin hearing Qing Mo's words, Wuxin once again clasped his hands together in a Buddhist gesture of respect, then said softly, "Little monk, you'll remember this!"
As the teenagers went about their own business, Snow Moon City returned to a rare period of peace. Li Hanyi and Zhao Yuzhen cultivated a peach grove on the back mountain of Snow Moon City!
The two of them built a small wooden house in the peach grove and then basically stopped caring about the affairs of the martial world. This truly fulfilled what Zhao Yuzhen had said at the time: all they wanted was a peach grove to live out their days drinking wine!
After Baili Dongjun met Yueyao, he gave up the idea of running away and spent every day with Yueyao. The two of them quietly ran the Baili Tavern, with one person in charge of brewing wine and the other in charge of tasting it!
They were all living very comfortably, but Sikong Changfeng was getting a little annoyed. Couples would come one after another, constantly irritating Sikong Changfeng's nerves!
We agreed to manage Snow Moon City together back then, but now the eldest and second eldest have fallen out of love and left me to manage the huge Snow Moon City. I have a ton of things to deal with every day, and my tool, Tang Lian, is gone too!
Qing Mo, on the other hand, continued to laze around in Snow Moon City, teaching Yueji cultivation during the day and doing what he loved at night, so Yueji was thoroughly satisfied every day!
In fact, Qing Mo was waiting for someone. That little devil with the sword box would definitely come to ask him about swordsmanship. Ever since the " One Sword Divides Yin and Yang " incident at the Beauty Manor, he had heard that Wushuang had been staying in Unparalleled City practicing hard!
More than a month later, Wushuang, who wanted to challenge Qing Mo to a duel, finally arrived in Snow Moon City with his sword box. Although he knew he was no match for Qing Mo, he still longed to challenge Qing Mo to a duel!
This time, Wushuang brought several disciples from Unparalleled City with him, including his senior brother Lu Yuzhai. The group, led by Sikong Changfeng, arrived outside the courtyard where Qing Mo lived!
Before Sikong Changfeng could knock, Qing Mo's voice rang out from inside, saying, "No need to knock, come in!"
At this moment, Qing Mo was sitting in the courtyard with his legs crossed, smiling as he looked at Wushuang, who was carrying a sword box. The moment Wushuang saw Qing Mo, he immediately ran over to him!
Then Wushuang said to Qing Mo, " Qing Mo, Immortal! I can now fully control the Peerless Sword Casket. I wish to ask you for guidance on swordsmanship!"
When Lu Yuzhai saw Wushuang being so rude, and even daring to speak to Qing Mo like that, and even call her by her first name, he broke out in a cold sweat. He had told her countless times before he came!
When he saw Qing Mo again, he completely forgot the etiquette and things he had told him to pay attention to on the way. Lu Yuzhai hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed Wushuang by the back of his collar, and threw him behind him!
He immediately clasped his hands in a salute to Qing Mo and said, " Immortal, please forgive me. My junior brother is a little slow-witted."
He was rude to you just now and even knew your name. On behalf of my junior brother, I apologize to you!
Wushuang, who had been thrown to the back by Lu Yuzhai, landed squarely on his buttocks. He grimaced in pain and quickly stood up, rubbing his backside. Only then did he remember what his senior brother had told him on the way!
Wushuang then approached Qing Mo again. This time, he immediately clasped his hands in a salute before speaking, " Immortal, please forgive my rudeness. I apologize for my lack of manners!"
Please don't blame my senior brother. Actually, he told me many times on the way here to be mindful of my manners, but I was so excited when I saw you that I forgot!
Qing Mo waved his hand and then laughed, "It's alright! I understand Wushuang personality quite well, so there's no need to be too concerned about such formalities!"
I can accept your challenge. Are you planning to find a place to fight now, or take a break? After all, you've had a tough journey!
In truth, Qing Mo had one more thing he didn't say: this was the last time he would challenge someone to a duel in this world!
