The infiltration plan failed, and the Yinyang Hall Master and the Hall Master of Blood Refinement had no better ideas for a while.
They never expected that the sect's grand plan would be ruined by a few dishes!
They didn't know how to explain themselves when they returned, so they could only brace themselves and report back. The reason for their tension was the sect's extreme emphasis on the Blood God's revival.
Deputy Leader Yuwen Cuojin had arrived in Dijin yesterday.
They walked into a mahjong parlor and, through a secret door, reached the underground hall.
"How did the matter go?"
Yuwen Cuojin was slurping instant noodles. Seeing the two enter, he seriously wiped his mouth.
"It failed."
"Hmm? Incompetence. You two had better give me an explanation."
Yuwen Cuojin took a sip of instant noodle soup, his eyes gradually turning cold.
"This is the food from Wanchun Court. Please try it."
Lu Tangzhu took out the packaged Han Xianzi's dishes and placed them on the table.
"What kind of ridiculous excuse is this? Hmph, we are members of the Demonic Sect..."
Yuwen Cuojin had a cold expression, intending to lead by example and show his subordinates what a ruthless person was.
But when he saw the fried intestine popsicles and spicy fish scales, mixed with colorful Medicinal Pill powder, he fell into deep thought.
The hand holding the chopsticks trembled slightly.
"Deputy Leader, why is your hand shaking?"
"Oh, it's getting cold."
Yuwen Cult Master of the Seventh Realm swallowed, cleared his throat, and said,
"Han Xianzi's cooking is indeed terrifying, but I've already had dinner. Eating more would be a waste of food, and I believe everyone understands that wasting food is shameful."
"We failed to infiltrate Wanchun Court, and the Hundred Flowers Gathering is imminent. What should we do?"
Lu Tangzhu looked troubled.
Li Mo had taken away the right to host the gathering, preventing them from deploying their personnel.
Now, Ying Bing's slight intervention made it impossible for them to even sneak into Wanchun Court. Their plan was clearly flawless, who knew they would encounter such an unexpected situation?
"As I see it, we only have two paths left before us."
Yuwen Cuojin's face hardened, and he said in a deep voice,
"First, send another batch of Yin Yang Hall disciples. They must, no matter what, hold out until the day of the Hundred Flowers Gathering. These people must be resolute and fearless of death. Is anyone willing to sign up?"
His voice echoed in the empty hall.
However, looking at the dishes on the table, a group of Demon Summoning Sect members exchanged glances, and not one of them had the confidence to sign up.
"The second path is for us to burn our bridges! Go all out, abandon infiltration, and launch a frontal assault on the day the gathering begins!"
"Good, let's fight these dog thieves of the imperial court!"
"Our Demon Summoning Sect will change the world, and it starts today!"
"Count me in!"
A group of Devil Heads eagerly signed up, responding enthusiastically... On the other side.
The Ice Cube seemed to want to make a late-night snack, silently taking out pots and pans, which made Chef Li's scalp tingle. He quickly grabbed her hand.
"Let's fry some potato chips and watch an animation later while we eat."
Li Mo said with a serious expression.
"Potato chips? I don't know how..."
"Sister, I'll teach you hand-in-hand."
As Li Mo spoke, he hugged her from behind, held her delicate hand, and began slicing unpeeled potatoes.
Xiao Li was very serious.
His arm was wrapped around her cool, soft body, his left hand on her waist, and his chin brushed against the strands of hair on her neck, smelling the fragrance of a secluded valley orchid.
It was late, the kitchen was quiet, with only the sound of slicing potatoes and oil bubbling.
Ying Bing gently curled her fingertips, feeling a little ticklish from his breath, and her whole body felt numb.
"Is doing it this way... okay?"
She used frying potato chips to distract herself.
"Mm, actually, you don't have to make difficult dishes right away. You can start with simple ones. Is there any animation you want to watch tonight?"
"How about watching 'Castle in the Sky'?"
Ying Bing was clearly a very serious person when it came to doing things.
But at this moment, she couldn't focus at all on what was in her hands.
However, from her relaxed posture, it was clear that the Ice Cube was enjoying the current quiet.
"Hmm? Why does the salt I sprinkled on seem a bit off..."
"Li Mo, that looks like sugar."
"Hiss..."
Chef Li inhaled a scent of the Ice Cube's natural body fragrance.
Based on his experience, he didn't even need to taste to distinguish between white sugar and salt, but how could he have mixed them up just now?
The Ice Cube's dark cooking attribute was too terrifying, even his hand-in-hand teaching wasn't working?
"Sweet isn't inedible either..."
"Are fried potato chips considered simple?"
"I guess so, but next time we can start with making instant noodles."
After scooping up the potato chips, Li Mo took the Ice Cube's delicate hand and returned to the room, then entered the Small World.
The cloud curtain in the sky also began to project the animation's light and shadow.
Ying Bing got up, intending to call Li Mo, but she paused when she turned around, seeing a different Xiao Li.
"It's quite good-looking."
Li Mo examined himself, finding that his most pressing concern was not an issue.
Putting everything else aside.
Firstly, this set of armor didn't look out of place on him. After absorbing the power of all living beings, it even emitted colorful clouds, glowing brightly.
After examining ❖ Nоvеl𝚒ght ❖ (Exclusive on Nоvеl𝚒ght) himself, he noticed that Ying Bing was no longer watching the animation but was secretly observing him, her clear, cold gaze a little dazed.
"How is it? Does it fit?"
"What fits?"
Ying Bing's gaze quickly retracted, as if she hadn't seen anything just now.
It retracted but not completely, her shimmering eyes reflecting the light and shadow on the cloud curtain, appearing dazzling and ethereal.
"This set of armor is not only good-looking, but also very powerful." ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
Li Mo smiled, and some of the power of all living beings accumulated in the kongming myriad colors pagoda slowly flowed into the armor.
He couldn't activate the armor's power solely with his Divine Intention, only by using the power of all living beings.
Immediately, under the Buyun Boots, clouds and mist rose.
The originally ordinary Somersault Cloud, under the enhancement, transformed into an auspicious cloud, becoming even more mysterious and unpredictable.
Li Mo stood on the rising clouds and mist, feeling that he could now move others along with him.
Then, a strange ripple emanated from the phoenix-winged purple gold crown, spreading out like a silent field.
Light flowed over the golden chainmail, and Li Mo once again used the Dharma Heaven and Earth technique, his body growing five times taller, with powerful strength surging around him.
"So strong! And this is the complete set, only one last piece is missing."
Li Mo slowly looked up, his eyes seemingly burning with a scorching fire, a heroic ambition in his chest to ascend to the nine heavens.
Instantly, he seemed to have transformed into a Heavenly God.
But he didn't try to pull out the Ruyi Golden Cudgel; he probably couldn't, and it wasn't the right time.
"See it now?" Li Mo raised an eyebrow, giving Ying Bing a hearty smile.
"I saw it."
Ying Bing's face was cool and aloof, but her eyes were soft.
"Doesn't it look good?"
"I like it."
The Ice Cube stopped pretending, looking openly, staring intently, as if to deeply remember this scene.
