Free Web Novel"You should sleep in my room from now on."
Li Mo suddenly said.
Clang--
Along with his words, Ying Bing's bowl and chopsticks fell.
The bowl and chopsticks shattered on the icy ground.
Ying Bing was caught off guard, her breathing quickening.
Li Mo was speechless, and said helplessly:
"Look at this place, can anyone still live here?"
"......"
Ying Bing didn't speak, lowering her gaze to the scene inside the room.
It was a mess.
Even the bed she slept on was currently supported by un-melted ice. Once the ice melted, it would likely fall apart.
"You can move to the next room. I sleep quite comfortably in the side room."
Li Mo added.
"Mm."
Ying Bing nodded, then picked up another pair of chopsticks and began to eat her meal slowly, her movements still a little stiff.
Li Mo didn't know what had happened to her, nor what to say.
Perhaps now, she just wanted to be left alone?
.....
Half the afternoon had just passed.
The Ice Cube had moved to another room to continue her self-isolation. She didn't want to talk, nor did she practice her cultivation.
Instead, Shang Wu returned first, her beautiful face full of confidence.
"Master, have you returned from reading in the Scripture Pavilion?" Li Mo asked.
"Mm."
Shang Wu nodded spiritedly, as if she had already grasped the truth.
"So, have you thought about what you want to teach me?" Li Mo raised an eyebrow.
Thinking about it, it was true. Master, being so young yet able to hold the position of Elder, with such profound Realm, was truly a Dragon and Phoenix among people.
She simply lacked methods for teaching Disciples.
With a little study, teaching him would be more than sufficient.
"I read in a book that a Master should teach their Disciple what they are best at."
Shang Wu lifted her chin and said.
"That's right." Li Mo thought it made sense.
"I thought about it, and what I'm best at are nothing more than three things."
Shang Wu held up three fingers.
Xiao Li adopted a posture of eager listening.
Then he heard Master proudly declare:
"Fighting, drinking, and gambling."
Li Mo: "....."
It seemed there was nothing wrong with that.
But why did he feel it was so strange?
"That book also said that to teach a Disciple, one must lead by example. Let's start with the first one."
Shang Wu looked at Li Mo, her almond eyes narrowed, her lips slightly curved:
"Come, let's have a fight first."
"While we're fighting, I'll teach you what needs to be taught."
Li Mo: "?"
What an excellent way to teach by example.
"Can we not fight?"
"No, I must be a qualified Master."
"Wait!"
"What now?"
"Before we start, Master, please tell me where that book is located in the Scripture Pavilion...."
Xiao Li swore he would go burn that book.
Shang Wu's narrowed almond eyes flickered:
"I'll tell you after we fight."
"....."
Li Mo stopped talking, a small flame igniting in his eyes.
Although Master was called the Innate Fighting Saint Body by many Elders, and was notoriously fierce in Qingyuan Sect, capable of stopping children from crying at night.
But now, he wasn't weak, was he?
He was, after all, someone who had once exchanged blows with a Daughter of Destiny!
And last night, he even achieved a Breakthrough in Inner Breath, making him stronger than before.
Li Mo felt a little overconfident, thinking that he wouldn't lose too badly against Master.
He followed Master out the back door to the open space behind it.
And so.
As soon as he stepped out the back door.
Buzz--
With a hum, boundless fiery colors spread around Shang Wu, completely enveloping a hundred meters around her.
Instantly, everything fell silent.
Surging heat swept in from all directions.
In an instant, Li Mo felt as if he were in a Pill Furnace, unable to perceive anything outside.
Inner Scenery.
This was the effect of an Inner Scenery expert, influencing heaven and earth with the scenery in their heart, creating a field-like effect.
This, this isn't right.
"Master, you're not suppressing your Realm?" Li Mo asked, confused.
"The first rule of fighting: if you can bully the weak, never do anything flashy."
Shang Wu was genuinely teaching seriously.
Li Mo: "!"
How am I supposed to fight you like this!
Withdraw!
I want to withdraw!
But obviously, withdrawing was impossible.
The beautiful Master's hands were itching, eager for a fight.
.....
Half an hour later.
"Hiss...."
Li Mo stumbled back, clutching his reddened forehead.
Alright, although Master didn't suppress her Realm, she still showed mercy.
Every time he attacked, she would respond with a flick to his forehead.
That jade finger seemed like an insurmountable mountain to him.
No matter how he attacked, it would flick his forehead the next second.
"Is that all?"
Shang Wu rubbed her fingertips, chuckling.
"....."
Li Mo clenched his fists.
Wind Shadow Step!
His figure suddenly split into eight, rushing towards Shang Wu from different directions.
However, Shang Wu merely snorted softly.
Bang--
The next moment, he flew back even faster.
"When fighting, never get emotional; always stay calm."
"You're not some hot-blooded youth from a storybook. Anger will only make you lose your composure in front of an enemy you could have originally defeated."
"A true fighting champion can even provoke their opponent while fighting."
Shang Wu's words fell.
Li Mo's head was dizzy from being flicked, and he didn't think much.
On a whim, he felt he had grasped the essence of what Master said.
Heh, isn't it just sweet-talking? I'm familiar with this!
He subconsciously followed suit and said:
"Old woman?"
Shang Wu's smile suddenly froze.
The air instantly solidified, only the intense heat slowly rising.
"Hehehe..... There's one more thing I haven't told you."
Shang Wu's beautiful face had a benevolent smile, words popping out from between her teeth one by one:
"Don't provoke beings you can't defeat."
Li Mo: "!"
A strong wind swept across his face.
It was as if an ancient giant beast was slowly awakening.
At this moment, Xiao Li's scalp tingled.
His instinctive survival desire made him infuse the power of the World Seed.
The Panjie Meteor Hammer was in his hand.
First Form of Setting Heaven and Earth, Setting Mountains.
Buzz--
The air solidified, everything around trembled wildly, blurred, and a dense, substantial murderous Qi frantically dispersed.
Shang Wu, in a state of anger, slightly raised an eyebrow.
Boom!!
The earth trembled, the great sun dimmed.
This was Li Mo's first time using a divine weapon.
Terrifying force filled the entire field, even overflowing outside.
This hammer strike was like rumbling thunder, like divine punishment, incredibly fierce.
However.
The terrifying hammer struck the woman's pale hand, but its momentum suddenly stopped.
Even the immense force instantly vanished into nothingness.
"You little brat."
The Panjie Meteor Hammer in Shang Wu's palm hummed ceaselessly, her almond eyes full of surprise.
Li Mo certainly hadn't unleashed the full power of the divine weapon, nor could he.
But merely being able to swing it with effort was enough to be astonishing.
Even she had to use some strength to block it.
"No more fighting, really no more fighting."
"Just flick me to death."
Li Mo lay on the ground exhausted, like a salted fish.
He wasn't going to be a Master anymore.
"How did you do that?"
Shang Wu reached out and poked his face, looking at her Baby Disciple like he was a rare animal.
Li Mo retracted the hammer and grinned:
"Anger doesn't necessarily trigger a power surge."
"But the will to survive can."
What kind of answer was that?
Suddenly.
Li Mo's face then showed surprise:
"Elder Qian, why have you come? Are you here to collect a debt?"
Shang Wu was also startled, and she abruptly turned her head in the direction Li Mo was looking.
It was empty.
Where was Elder Qian? freewebnoveℓ.com
When she turned back, Li Mo was gone. He had escaped somewhere, and she couldn't even sense him within the field she had released.
This was something Xiao Li had just realized.
If you can't win, don't fight to the death.
Thirty-six stratagems, time to run.
"How did he get out?"
Ying Bing narrowed her almond eyes, thoughtfully examining a corner of the field.
She found the reason.
There was a hole there, created at some unknown time, as if burned by some kind of flame.
"Shang Wu's field is a projection /N_o_v_e_l_i_g_h_t/ of the Southern Bright Phoenix Fire."
"He can not only use a divine weapon, but also break through an Inner Scenery field?"
Up in the pavilion.
By the window.
Ying Bing silently took everything in.
Her eyes, which had finally calmed down, couldn't stop rippling again.
