“If you keep doing that, I won't be able to stop myself from hugging you.”
Xiao Li said with a serious face.
To be frank, it's troublesome to travel the Jianghu and fulfill the mission of the Executioners. Over time, it's easy to get lost in the vast Human City, not knowing where one's home is.
But Li Mo's Jianghu journey was not far at all.
Ying Bing looked at him, pursed her lips, and her cool, detached expression finally couldn't be maintained.
She put down her needlework and opened her arms.
Unexpectedly, Li Mo suddenly grinned, came over, gave her a hug around the waist, and placed her on his lap.
Seeing him bury his head in her shoulder, inhaling her icy scent, and still smiling, Ying Bing gave him a reproachful look but said nothing.
Anyway, even if she did, he wouldn't be able to control his hammer treasure, and he would probably say that his hammer treasure had its own ideas... Just then, footsteps sounded at the door.
Feng Zhi entered with a small girl in green, leaning back slightly at the sight before her.
Chun Mang's eyes widened: “Oh my, Ying Bing...”
She really was here.
Since a certain Jiang Di took the stage, Celestial Human City seemed to have condensed quite a bit, but in reality, it had also become quite bloated, and the connection between Earth City and Celestial City had become closer.
However, the relationship between the Celestial Race and the Celestial Race was exactly the opposite; it was no longer as harmonious as in the past.
Jiang Yu was aware of this matter, even watching with cold eyes and intentionally fanning the flames.
He even considered this his... Dao of Checks and Balances.
A portion of the Celestial Race, those without a lust for power or control, often thought to themselves:
If only Ying Bing could return, it would be great.
With her strength, she wouldn't need any other messy methods at all.
But now, she sat in that man's arms, ignoring his mischief, and was as soft as if she had lost all her strength.
Ying Bing's gaze shifted over, she poked Li Mo's forehead, indicating that they had guests, and then said: freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
“Why have you come?”
“Well, just passing by...”
Feng Zhi still didn't know how to explain the complicated situation clearly.
Chun Mang, however, couldn't help but speak:
“Ying Bing, when will you return to Celestial City? Many of our kin now feel that you should be the Empress.”
“I won't go back.”
Ying Bing shook her head gently without hesitation, placing her slender hand in Li Mo's palm, her long legs swinging back and forth.
Li Mo fell silent upon hearing their conversation.
He had actually known for a long time that Han Yue Xian was his Heavenly Immortal sister.
Ying Bing probably knew that he knew, but neither of them had ever explicitly said it.
He was a little puzzled. She seemed to have been by his side for a very long time, in the days he couldn't remember.
She was clearly far stronger than the current Emperor of the Celestial Race.
But she had left Celestial City without hesitation. Rather than saying she had no interest in being an Emperor, it was more like... she just wanted to stay by his side?
“Jiang Di's actions, I feel, will have endless repercussions, but besides you, we have no one else who can take charge of the overall situation.”
Chun Mang's tone became anxious.
“What has he done?”
“He wants us to contact spies to help him control Mo City, reclaim Human City, and also make all Mortals submit to the Celestial Race before the natural disaster arrives. How can it be that simple!”
Feng Zhi angrily slapped the table.
Spies... The intelligent Ying Bing lowered her gaze to Li Mo.
Li Mo: “...”
Well, it was a bit awkward... Without a reminder, Li Mo had truly forgotten his mission. Alright, from the beginning, he hadn't taken it seriously.
Li Mo helplessly said: “If you all can't do it, how can I? This isn't something that can be solved with a hammer.”
“That's what I mean, but these past two years, all our clansmen thought that I was keeping in touch with you, and that there was a grand and meticulous plan...”
“How did it turn out like this?”
“Brother-in-law, you're famous every day, storytellers mention you eight hundred times a day. I couldn't say you were missing, so I had to keep using new excuses to fob them off, and it just ended up like this.”
Feng Zhi pouted, looking pitiful, completely losing her wild demeanor:
“Brother-in-law, I was helping you at the time. You can't abandon me now.”
Oh well, the God of Wind was almost crying.
Sniffling and whimpering, as if having a fit.
Li Mo fell into deep thought. She had indeed been covering for him, which caused the lie to grow larger and larger, to the point where it was now unmanageable.
He couldn't just ignore it... but he couldn't betray the Executioners and Mo City, could he?
“Sister, help me.” Li Mo said earnestly.
Feng Zhi and Chun Mang thought he was asking Ying Bing for advice.
Unexpectedly, Ying Bing gave him a helpless look, lowered her head, and pressed her lips to his neck, her ears flushed with a crystal-like redness.

After being kissed by his Heavenly Immortal sister, Xiao Li's back no longer ached, his legs no longer hurt, and his hammer treasure was full of fighting spirit.
Two heads became one large one, and his clever intellect once again took the high ground.
“Hey, I actually have a solution that satisfies both sides.”
Li Mo touched his neck, looking aloof like a Genius.
“That quickly?”
“You didn't already think of a way, did you...?”
Feng Zhi and Chun Mang were slightly suspicious but still waited quietly for Li Mo to continue.
“First, what Jiang Yu meant by making Human City submit should not be about land. With the strength of the Celestial Race, occupying Human City would be effortless, so what he truly wants is the hearts of the people.”
“Exactly.”
The Celestial Human Divine Sword could only be invincible when driven by the united will of the people.
This was also why Jiang Yu had never fully wielded it.
In the eyes of most people in Celestial Human City, neither the Celestial Race nor he could be considered to have the full support of the people.
“Well, the Celestial Race possesses innate powerful strength, so why not use it to help the Mortals of Human City?”
“Are you suggesting passing on power to Mortals? That won't work. There are too many people; it wouldn't be enough to go around.”
Feng Zhi shook her head. Even for the Legacy holders of Earth City, the Celestial Race had to be very selective.
“Who said it had to be about passing on power?”
Li Mo raised his index finger and wiggled it.
He also found it strange that such a simple principle needed him to point it out.
“For instance, Feng Zhi, you can disperse miasma. For instance, Chun Mang, you can cultivate seeds and bring vitality to a field. And Yan Rong, you can provide subterranean fire for smelting metals...”
“You are born with qualities that command respect.”
“It's just that you've never realized how much Mortals respect those who keep them fed and clothed. It far surpasses the awe brought by power.”
Feng Zhi and Chun Mang remained motionless, lost in thought.
Helping Human City with its construction would be beneficial to Celestial Human City and the Celestial Race, with no drawbacks.
Even Jiang Yu wouldn't say anything.
After all, he would never believe that Mortals could pose any threat to him.
“Since it's something you've entrusted to me, let's call this the ‘Spring Wind Project’!”
“However, the Celestial Race is too far from Mortals, so Mo City must act as an intermediary between # Nоvеlight # the two sides.”
Li Mo said, then paused and added:
“Before that, there's one more thing to do...”
“What is it?”
...Half an hour later, on the rooftop of Mo City's Wind-Catching Tower, the famous Executioners and the elders of Mo City, including Dong Changtian, were all gathered there.
Li Mo walked to the center and said solemnly in a deep voice:
“Everyone, I have something to announce. If I don't say this, I will be uneasy and tormented day after day.”
“Actually, I am a spy.”
Xiao Li the spy revealed his true identity.
