Free Web Novel“I, Li Mo, have always relied on my righteousness in all my actions... I’m coming.”
Xiao Li was already disoriented; not only did his hammer treasure have its own ideas, but so did his mind.
However, as soon as he stepped behind the screen, he saw the Ice Cube already dressed in her nightgown, with tiny frost flowers on her dark hair. With a gentle shake, they turned into sparkling starlight. Her snow-white legs were crossed as she sat on a low stool, her narrowed eyes bright with a hint of a smile.
“??”
Xiao Li leaned back slightly.
“You’re done washing?”
“Yes, I called you after I finished.”
Ying Bing tilted her head, as if she knew nothing.
“Ice Cube, you’ve become naughty,” Li Mo said, clicking his tongue.
“No, I’m a very serious person. Everyone says so.”
Ying Bing narrowed her eyes, trying to look very serious.
“Then why didn’t you call me after you came out?”
Ying Bing lowered her gaze elsewhere: “The water was getting cold, and you don’t like changing the water...”
“...”
Xiao Li found himself unable to refute her.
The Ice Cube-flavored bath water, if given to others, could be diluted and drunk for three years.
Was he supposed to pour it all down the drain? He couldn’t do it, so he could only trust the Ice Cube.
“My massage skills have improved recently, Ice Cube, wait a moment.” Li Mo threw his top aside.
Ying Bing, who had already walked out and sat by the head of the bed, quietly lowered her eyes to look at her snow-white, smooth toes, unconsciously curling them slightly. freёwebnovel.com
“No... something’s not right.”
Li Mo looked at the Ice Cube’s discarded clothes beside him. They actually had a hint of Southern Jiang style... but he quickly remembered.
When the Ice Cube came in to bathe, she hadn’t brought the boy with a large head, nor a change of underwear... So what was she wearing under her nightgown now?!
Li Mo gasped, almost inhaling the Ice Cube-flavored bath water.
“Martial Arts Comprehension, add it to me!”
It proved that his finger technique talent was also good. With Forty years of Martial Arts Comprehension, the Flower-Plucking Finger had already reached the Transcendent realm!
This also became one of the very few Transcendent martial arts Li Mo had, besides his Hammer Technique... Li Mo put on his clothes and went out.
Ying Bing was wearing the pearl-white lotus silk nightgown, sitting on the soft couch with her legs together, gazing at the moonlight outside the window, as if lost in thought.
Hearing footsteps, she turned her head.
Li Mo said with a solemn expression: “Ice Cube, my martial arts have improved again.”
“What improved?”
“An ultimate finger technique, Transcendent!”
Ying Bing rarely saw anyone practice finger techniques... let alone reach the Transcendent realm.
Finger techniques are difficult to master, less practical than fist and palm techniques, and if one seeks destructive power, they are inferior to weapons... “You look like you don’t quite believe me. Then stretch out your foot, and we can exchange pointers, stopping before anyone gets hurt.”
“?”
Ying Bing clutched the hem of her skirt, feeling that he genuinely wanted to exchange, but probably not martial arts.
But she still placed her slightly curled small foot on his lap.
“Take this!”
Li Mo grabbed her small foot!
Ying Bing continued to look out the window, but gradually, the moonlight in her eyes transformed from the bright moon in the sky to the rippling moon reflection in a well... Her delicate hand, gripping the boy with a large head, tightened more and more.
She took a deep breath. Just as Xiao Li was about to increase his strength, she softly said:
“When did you learn this?”
“Just recently,” Li Mo said without looking up.
Ying Bing pursed her lips, thinking that he had quite a talent in this area, and then said faintly:
“Weren’t you focusing on practicing your sword recently?”
“!” frёeωebɳovel.com
Li Mo’s hand movements paused. After some thought, he said:
“I’ve encountered a Bottleneck recently; it’s very slow to learn...”
Xiao Li’s progress in comprehending sword Dao rhyme had not been ideal recently.
“It was fine before, wasn’t it?”
“Yes, the Sword of Chivalry was quick to comprehend, but the Sword of Governing the World and Ruling the Nation is very slow.”
Li Mo said, his head ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) aching.
The Sword of Governing the World and Ruling the Nation includes the Sword of Scholars and the Sword of Generals.
At this rate, he probably wouldn’t get to see the later Sword of Emperor’s Dao. Well, to be honest, he wasn’t interested in those two anyway.
“Why did you start learning the sword in the first place?”
Ying Bing wiggled her toes and asked curiously.
Li Mo, holding the soft, fragrant jade, thought for a moment and said: “It’s a hobby, you know... How cool is it to wield a sword? Elegant and free-spirited, enjoying the Jianghu, shouting when you see injustice, and showing off in front of people...”
“Then just do what you love to do.”
“...”
Li Mo was startled. He looked up at the Ice Cube, only to find her face, illuminated by the moonlight, a mix of light and shadow, her eyes gently and softly looking at him.
“If it’s a hobby, then it doesn’t matter if you’re good at it or not, as long as you’re happy.”
“Good!”
Li Mo’s eyes lit up, as if he had understood something.
Ying Bing’s lips just curled up, but then she heard him say:
“Actually, finger techniques are also my hobby, and even a little more enjoyable than wielding a sword.”
“?”
Gradually, Ying Bing’s body was no longer tense and relaxed.
This seemed to be the first time she had lost a sparring match with Li Mo, but she had to admit... the Transcendent finger technique was truly formidable... As her body relaxed, the Ice Cube’s mind also relaxed.
She didn’t want Li Mo to do things he disliked because of her, whether it was practicing the sword or going to Tianhuang Domain.
Going to Tianhuang Domain, it was like experiencing life as a human, and that burden was too heavy.
It was fine if he just remained a childish ghost... “Alright.”
Li Mo reluctantly let go of the small foot in his hand and yawned.
But he found that a certain Phoenix Heavenly Empress had already leaned back on the soft couch, emitting even breathing sounds, her sleeping face serene and peaceful.
The Ice Cube truly didn’t treat Xiao Li as an outsider!
“When did she fall asleep?”
Li Mo mumbled, gently lifting her soft, fragrant body. As soon as he held her, he suddenly realized, because the sensation in his hands told him... there was no Southern Jiang custom feeling.
She really didn’t... Oh no!
Li Mo silently and quickly placed her on the bed, reached out to cover his nose, and was about to leave when a delicate hand unconsciously grabbed his clothes. He sat back down.
But now he was already afflicted with a bleeding buff; sleeping here for one night, who could endure that?
So he burrowed into the World Seed.
“Who lives in a pineapple under the sea~”
After watching an episode of SpongeBob, Li Mo’s condition improved. He sighed:
“Doing what you love also comes with a price, even getting injured and bleeding...”
“But Li Mo, with your unyielding spirit, how can you give up so easily?”
Li Mo had just figured it out.
Since he definitely couldn’t master the Sword of Emperor’s Dao and the Sword of Governing the World and Ruling the Nation, then... wouldn’t it be better to focus solely on the Sword of Chivalry and max it out?
Xiao Li felt that the Ice Cube definitely meant this.
