The misty fog within the Inner Scenery grew thinner and thinner.
Because they had been tempered by various martial arts, they were absorbed by the stellar phantoms within the Mystic Core Scripture, making the stars even more real and perfect.
Each Mystic Core had to undergo a long period of meticulous effort by Inner Breath Realm martial artists, transforming through Qi Condensation martial arts.
But in Ice Cube’s hands, it was as easy as picking a chess piece from a chess bag.
“The Mystic Core Scripture can be practiced like this?”
Li Mo had no time to feel the sense of fullness that each star brought to his Inner Scenery.
He could tell that Ice Cube seemed relaxed, but in reality, each star she hung represented a Transcendent martial art.
And all of them perfectly matched his own Inner Scenery.
If he had to do it himself, the Martial Arts Comprehension required would be immeasurable.
It was still Inner Scenery First Heaven.
But the starry sky within the Inner Scenery would thereafter belong only to him, and when the Inner Scenery projected to the outside world, it would no longer need to resonate with the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
The stars shone faintly, the sun set in the west, and Qingyuan was peaceful in the twilight.
Li Mo withdrew his Inner Scenery, feeling that the Dynasty Luck, which had been like a bone stuck in his throat, was now suppressed by the crimson giant that supported the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, no longer able to affect him in any way.
With the stars swirling within his Inner Scenery, Li Mo clicked open the Pill Furnace.
He happened to see Ying Bing, who had also dispersed her Inner Scenery, descending slowly, and when she saw someone emerge from the Pill Furnace and open his arms to her, her cool and sacred aura suddenly gained a touch of earthly warmth.
Everyone on Dan Ding Peak leaned back slightly.
Such a gentle appearance, was it the same person as just now?
“How do you feel?”
“I probably won’t sound so regal when I talk anymore.”
Li Mo, with a regal air, helped her up.
“Let’s go home,” Ying Bing said, her tone a little weary, only relaxing when she saw him looking vibrant.
She didn't stubbornly insist that Li Mo let go of her so she could walk on her own.
“Alright, alright, I’ll carry you.”
Li Mo simply supported her long legs and carried Ice Cube on his back, thinking that the old saying was indeed true: behind every successful he, there is a soft she.
He could feel that Ice Cube wasn't as relaxed as she appeared.
Li Mo had actually seen her weak many times before; back then, ➤ NоvеⅠight ➤ (Read more on our source) she suffered from the cold every day, always frowning, and several times he wanted to ask her how she was, but when he met those eyes as cold as frost and snow, he couldn't utter a single word.
But now she was softly nestled on his back, her arms around his neck, as lazy as a cat.
“Ice Cube, how did you find so many martial arts suitable for me?”
Ying Bing rested her face on his shoulder and said casually, “I created them in my spare time; I just picked some from them, and it happened that there were some suitable for you.”
Li Mo’s mouth twitched slightly, was that a human thing to say?
For a moment, he couldn't tell who was the actual cheat.
“No wonder I’ve never even heard of those martial arts...”
“It’s alright, I’ll just teach them to you little by little, and you’ll catch up,” Teacher Ice Cube had already prepared the lessons.
Li Mo then felt something was off: “Hey, wait, how did you know those were suitable for me?”
“While watching animations in the Inner Scenery.”
“No wonder every time you finish watching an animation, you stare at the sky for a long time. You’ve worked hard; how about a bath tonight?”
“Okay...”
Ying Bing nodded subconsciously, then suddenly realized she had forgotten something.
Tonight was the System ranking time again.
But he couldn’t possibly know about the System, let alone predict the outcome in advance; it must be a coincidence... She lifted her face to look at him, but when she heard the wind, Xiao Li hummed a little tune.
It sounded a bit strange.
“What is this tune?”
“Zhu Bajie carries...”
“Carries what?”
“Cough, I can’t quite remember, I also heard a Buddhist monk sing it.”
Buddhist Zen music also had such an up-and-down, festive tune?
But seeing his earnestness, Ying Bing hugged him a little tighter and was vaguely carried back to Autumn Water Pavilion.
Xiao Li had just returned, but Autumn Water Pavilion was already filled with cooking smoke; Gu Xueqin was busy in the kitchen, and Li Dalong was helping her.
Although Li Mo’s cooking skills were no longer what they used to be, his mother’s taste was always irreplaceable.
He didn't even need to enter the kitchen to guess that baby cabbage would definitely be on the dinner menu.
Besides those living in Autumn Water Pavilion, Zhennan King was also in the courtyard, fiddling with an abacus, calculating some unknown accounts.
“Zhong Shu, are you calculating military provisions?”
Li Mo had just sent Ice Cube upstairs to rest and came down to casually ask if there were any investment opportunities.
Zhong Qin coughed lightly: “With your help, there’s no need to worry about major unrest in the Southern Frontier, but this King has no private property, and it wouldn’t be good to give too little for the gift money.” fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
“Gift money?”
“That’s right, the imperial edict has already been issued. Once the date is set, I will return to the capital to report. Your Majesty will help you with the arrangements. By the way, when did you set the auspicious date?”
“...”
Li Mo thought, how would he know?
The imperial edict was with Ice Cube; he didn't even know if it had been filled out or when it had been filled out.
“Zhong Shu, you and Your Majesty have both put in effort; it’s too polite to give a gift as well.”
Looking at Ice Cube’s room upstairs, Li Mo asked again: “How are royal weddings usually conducted?”
Zhong Qin’s brows relaxed: “Aside from the higher specifications, the royal wedding is not much different from an ordinary family’s.”
Li Mo’s mind conjured an image of himself in a suit and Ice Cube in a wedding dress, exchanging rings after the officiant asked, ‘Do you take him/her to be your lawfully wedded spouse?’... Uh, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths probably, perhaps, should not follow this procedure.
He had seen it in a dream, but unfortunately, that was not reality, and the details were very blurry.
“How are ordinary family weddings conducted?”
Just as he was speaking, Ice Cube, who had gone upstairs earlier, came down, her face serene and beautiful in the evening light.
She walked into the kitchen to serve dishes, as if she hadn't heard them talking.
“A major life event, even for commoners, involves many customs, such as the groom personally going to the bride’s home to carry his wife...”
Li Mo nodded, keeping what he said in mind, and planned to ask Clan Leader Shang later, while casually taking the baby cabbage Ice Cube had brought over.
Then, every time Zhong Qin got to a key point, Ice Cube would return, just in time with a plate of food.
“Ice Cube, if you’re curious...”
“Curious about what?”
Ying Bing’s gaze drifted to the side, and she tilted her head, looking like Ice Cube didn’t quite understand what they were talking about.
“...”
At this moment, Li Dalong and Gu Xueqin came out of the kitchen, Old Li’s face beaming with smiles.
“I heard everything just now. Your mother and I are experienced in this matter, so we definitely know it best. Do you want us to demonstrate it for you, kid?”
Old Li hadn’t been able to help his son much, and often felt that his son had grown up and was far more capable than him.
Now, he finally found an opportunity to assert his authority as an old father.
