"Forgot clothes?"

Having just absorbed a bit of new profundity from the Wukong Seeking the Dao Diagram, Li Mo nearly forgot everything.

That's not right.

Last time in Yunzhou, she cleared out an entire clothing store and put everything into the Ice Cube's sumaru object.

And she has a very magical Martial Arts Move that lets her change outfits in the blink of an eye, like it's nothing.

How could she not have clothes to wear?

Emmmm.

Wait.

At this moment, the tacit understanding became fully apparent. The upright Xiao Li realized he understood, to his own damnation.

Undergarments....

After all, that store in Yunzhou sold ready-to-wear clothes, not underwear.

As for Martial Arts?

What proper Martial Arts could possibly come with the function of changing underwear? It seems highly unlikely.

"Is it intimate apparel?"

"......"

Han Xianzi on the other side of the screen was silent for a long time before nodding slightly, her voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz:

"Mm."

"Wait for me."

Li Mo nodded. He was in the middle of comprehending the Somersault Cloud within the Wukong Seeking the Dao Diagram.

He never expected it.

It would come in handy so soon!

Looking at the Wukong Seeking the Dao Diagram, the upright Xiao Li earnestly focused his mind, comprehending the profound Divine Ability within the Divine Intention.

"The Somersault Cloud, the most mysterious movement and flying technique in the world, contains the profundity of 'So close yet so far away' (literally 'a foot away, yet a thousand miles apart'). Therefore, upon Major Achievement, one somersault can cover one hundred and eight thousand miles..."

"Back then, Brother Monkey learned it overnight. For me to grasp the basics, it shouldn't be a problem."

"I heard from the locals in the restaurant that there's a shop selling women's clothing on West Street? It seems they have many styles. The customs in Southern Xinjiang are very open, you can tell from the clothes."

"I wonder about intimate apparel... Sorry, Brother Monkey."

Xiao Li pinched himself, then earnestly continued to comprehend the Somersault Cloud.

Because time was tight, he even used Martial Arts Comprehension.

【Ten years of Martial Arts Comprehension successfully injected.】

【First year: You begin to follow the method in the Divine Ability, practicing somersaults. Ugh, Move on, ignore! You succeeded on your first try! But due to the vast difference between the action and the Divine Intention, you ✪ Nоvеlіgһt ✪ (Official version) only summoned a wisp of cloud mist.】

【Sixth year: Your movements become increasingly standard. With a flip, you can summon a large amount of cloud mist, ascending into the air with the Qi of the clouds, but the speed is not as miraculous as you imagined.】

【Ninth year: You no longer need to somersault. With a single thought, you can ride the clouds, and your speed is incomparable, but you still haven't achieved the ability of 'So close yet so far away'.】

【Tenth year: You seem to have a realization. You are not 'light' enough.】

A large amount of comprehension surged into Li Mo's mind.

Li Mo was thoughtful.

Although the Somersault Cloud could use Martial Arts Comprehension, it wasn't like Martial Arts that required accumulated practice over time, dividing into Major Achievement, Minor Achievement, Perfection, and Transcendent.

The effect of this Divine Ability, like Indestructible Diamond, was only related to him, the 'person'.

"I'm not light enough..."

Li Mo frowned. Using Martial Arts Comprehension now was useless; what he needed was that one crucial opportunity.

Without that opportunity, any amount of tedious, persistent effort would be in vain.

His comprehension this time didn't take long, just a few minutes.

The private room was still filled with misty vapor and a faint fragrance.

Li Mo stopped dwelling on whether he was 'light enough' and turned his head, seeing the 'Stillness' (still reflection in the water) of the girl with downcast eyes on the screen.

Hmm....

The Ice Cube was still waiting for clothes.

Actually, she could also use cloud mist to wrap herself, wasn't that what she did last time? How could she forget this time?

"Ice Cube, I'll go buy you some intimate items. I'll be back soon."

Whoosh—

Clouds surged, and mist rose from beneath Li Mo's feet. This weightless cloud mist gently lifted him, carrying him out of the window.

Ying Bing raised her eyes, watching the boy's silhouette fly out the window.

She couldn't help but pick up the boy with a large head and ask it in her mind:

"When did he learn this new Move?"

Inner Scenery experts can only fly by relying on their domain, and it creates quite a stir.

Other methods could also allow a 관신 Martial Artist to fly, such as her Azure Luan Wings, but no matter the method, there would be Origin Qi fluctuations.

But Li Mo had none just now.

It was as if a cloud suddenly drifted by and carried him away.

He seems to... always acquire some magical methods that even he hasn't seen before.

"Can you buy them well...?"

The boy with a large head couldn't speak.

So Ying Bing snorted lightly, flicked its forehead with her index finger, making it spin a few times in the water.

.......

"Hmm?"

"It feels like flying, and it's quite exciting, huh."

Li Mo, riding the Somersault Cloud, felt a thrill of discovery and performed several 360-degree spins in the air, executing various flexible and difficult maneuvers.

He felt that this Somersault Cloud was simply at his command, incredibly flexible.

Most importantly, it was extremely fast!

Although it wasn't as miraculous as one somersault covering one hundred and eight thousand miles, it was equivalent to 2.8 Huang Donglais.

"Qingmu City is actually this big."

"I wonder if this Somersault Cloud can carry people? Hmm... It doesn't seem necessary, the Ice Cube can fly by herself too." freewebnovёl.ƈom

Floating on the wind, looking down at the myriad lights of Qingmu City.

Xiao Li felt the excitement of buying a new car and wanting to drive it even just to go downstairs for a pack of cigarettes.

Before long.

He found the shop specializing in women's intimate apparel and dispersed the Somersault Cloud at the street corner.

Walking into the shop, the owner was a middle-aged local woman from Southern Xinjiang. Business in the shop was quite good at the moment.

As soon as Li Mo entered, he was met with various gazes.

"Young man, we don't sell men's clothes here."

The female boss thought he had entered the wrong place.

"I'm buying for someone else," the upright Xiao Li said earnestly.

"Hahahaha."

"Young man, you're not from around here, are you?"

"Such a grown young man, buying clothes for his wife?"

Giggles and laughter came from the clothing store.

Of course, this was also because Xiao Li's appearance was sunny and handsome, and his feigned composure carried a hint of awkwardness, making people find him amusing.

If it were a lecherous, unkempt man, he would have been kicked out long ago.

"What's your wife's figure like?" the proprietress asked again.

"About... just...."

The upright Xiao Li thought for a moment, and an idea struck him.

He pointed to the large meat bun across the street, the kind made in Southern Xinjiang, imitating Central Plains methods but with a more rustic touch, one of which could fill a man.

"The young man is quite blessed."

The proprietress tutted, then asked with a smile:

"I have many styles here. I don't know which ones she prefers, so just pick some that you like."

As soon as she said this.

There were light 'tsks' and low laughter from the clothing store.

This kind of thing, besides oneself, could only be worn for one's own husband to see.

"What I like? Cough, normal styles are fine, the kind an upright gentleman would choose."

Li Mo coughed lightly, raised his eyes to survey, and saw a dazzling array of styles hanging on the counter, giving him the feeling of a new world opening before his eyes.

Some were Central Plains styles, nothing much to say about them.

Some were local Southern Xinjiang styles, mostly quite revealing, and not just the fabric, the designs were also ingenious. Some were even more alluring than 'Cool Summer'...

"Oh, look at you, an upright gentleman wouldn't step foot in here."

The proprietress followed Li Mo's gaze and said with a smile:

"Young man, this is called a Hehuanjin (Joyful Union Bodice)."

"It's a local Southern Xinjiang style. This one is made of pearl white lotus silk; the price is not cheap."

Why is it called Hehuanjin?

Some women who are lonely or whose relationships are troubled would buy this style...

"I'll take them all."

Xiao Li did not understand such things.

Buying local Southern Xinjiang styles in Southern Xinjiang was called 'following local customs'.

Gentlemen understood this principle; they should thoroughly follow local customs.
