Chapter 264: Wanting to have a child with Fei Yan, Moon Goddess was extremely aggrieved!
The main bodies of the dozen or so blade columns were made of bronze, with large, sharp blades neatly arranged on each one.
Below each blade column, there was a straight groove.
The blade columns kept approaching them along these grooves.
If they closed in, even a rock would be shredded to pieces.
Li Mo’s face darkened as he raised his hand and struck out a palm.
The strong palm wind directly broke three of the blade columns.
Fei Yan complemented him, her jade hands drawing dazzling lights ahead.
“Dragon roaming energy” was unleashed onto the blade columns as if it were free.
The seemingly hard blade columns instantly broke with a sound.
“What are you standing there for?”
Li Mo raised his hand and destroyed two more blade columns, speaking coldly to Moon Goddess, who hung her head.
Moon Goddess’s slender shoulders trembled as she hurriedly mimicked Fei Yan in destroying the blade columns.
Such a trap might be a deadly danger to ordinary people.
But for the three of them, it was only a small obstacle.
As long as they destroyed those blade columns, the trap would lose its threat.
The reason why Li Mo was so angry was that Moon Goddess was too eager, treating his words as mere background noise.
Dull thuds echoed continuously in the pit, and over a dozen blade columns were soon destroyed entirely.
The trap that had previously left the three young ones in a frantic scramble was dismantled effortlessly by the three of them.
“If you act recklessly again, you’ll be sent back to the Yin-Yang School.”
Li Mo lowered his hand, retracted his aura, and voiced his displeasure with Moon Goddess’s performance.
Moon Goddess’s face turned pale, feeling a surge of fear.
Entering Qin was a task given to her by Donghuang Taiyi, and if she was sent back without completing it, even as a protector of the Yin-Yang School, she would be punished.
She didn’t doubt Li Mo’s ability to do so either.
Whether she could stay in Qin or not was essentially up to his word.
“If you act rashly again, don’t blame me for being rude.”
Fei Yan wasn’t known for her good temper.
Last time, Li Mo scolded Moon Goddess, and she consoled him, fulfilling her duty as a senior sister.
But this time, Moon Goddess hadn’t learned her lesson.
If it happened again, she wouldn’t wait for Li Mo; she would step in and teach her directly.
“Yes…”
Moon Goddess, realizing she caused trouble, hung her head pitifully, not daring to argue.
In terms of status, she couldn’t compare.
In terms of strength, even less so.
So, it was better to behave honestly.
She had a flaw—she was highly jealous.
But she also had a virtue—she understood the times.
Li Mo turned around and ignored the Moon Goddess. Instead, he looked at Fei Yan with a strange smile.
Among the three little ones in the original work, one shares a blood connection with her.
Li Mo was also curious. With Yan Dan dead, Fei Yan’s life had undergone a massive change.
If he were to have a child with her, would it be a boy or a girl?
Fei Yan and Yan Lingji had special constitutions, making it difficult for them to conceive.
Perhaps they could wait until Fei Yan truly reached the Tongshen realm and could regulate herself before considering having a child with her.
Fei Yan looked bewildered by Li Mo’s smile.
Why did it feel like her husband wanted to devour her?
“Illusory Melody Twelve, Five Tones But No Music, Supreme Heavenly Melody, Demon Sounds Thousandfold. This is indeed our Yin-Yang School’s Illusory Sound Treasure Box.”
Moon Goddess dared not move recklessly anymore, her hands obediently folded over her lower abdomen. She stood in front of the Illusory Sound Treasure Box and read the six characters on the box’s lid softly.
The Illusory Sound Treasure Box was exquisitely crafted, looking like an ordinary music box from the outside.
A circular jade disc was embedded on the lid, inscribed with sixteen Chu characters.
“Click!”
As soon as the Moon Goddess finished speaking, the box’s lid suddenly sprung open automatically.
A melodious and crisp tune emanated.
Tingling and crystalline, like the sound of a mountain spring.
Fei Yan’s eyes instantly glared ferociously at her.
The Moon Goddess instinctively took a step back, looking at Li Mo with an innocent expression.
“I didn’t touch it.”
Li Mo almost laughed at her flustered look and waved his hand, saying, “I know.”
When someone is overly cautious about making mistakes in front of you, it means you have already taken the upper hand.
The Moon Goddess’s behavior had already shown that vibe.
Hearing Li Mo say this, the Moon Goddess finally felt at ease.
Fei Yan also retracted her fierce gaze.
The three of them simultaneously focused on the Illusory Sound Treasure Box.
Inside the treasure box was a tower-like building stacked together, with a gem embedded at the top.
As soon as the lid was opened, the gears inside the pavilion began to turn.
The pavilion also started rising slowly.
The pavilion had five levels.
Each level corresponded to the five tones “Gong, Shang, Jiao, Zhi, Yu.”
Each level had twelve flying eaves, each with a window below.
On each window, the names of musical notes were marked, corresponding to the twelve tones.
“The Illusory Sound Treasure Box can play countless melodies, these tunes are both real and illusory, ever-changing.”
“And they also contain a terrifyingly dangerous power.
“If a person has an affinity with it, listening to it can enhance their abilities, but if they have no affinity, they could fall into delusion or even madness.”
As if enchanted by the beautiful music of the Illusory Sound Treasure Box, the Moon Goddess said with a look of intoxication.
But as soon as she finished speaking, the stone pillar supporting the treasure box suddenly made a “click.”
Following this was a slight tremor.
The entire stone pillar began to slowly descend, taking the treasure box with it.
Li Mo tried to lift the box but found it was impossible to remove.
Using force would only break the treasure box.
Seeing the stone pillar sinking deeper, the Moon Goddess felt like crying.
“I really didn’t move it!”
Does this treasure box have a grudge against her?
When I don’t talk, you stay still, but once I speak, you either sing or sink.
You too are bullying me, right?
Li Mo shook his head and said, “It has nothing to do with you; it’s Mojia’s chain mechanisms.”
“It seems we need to find a way to take the treasure box before the stone pillar sinks into the ground, or it will descend with the pillar,” Fei Yan said thoughtfully, looking at the descending treasure box.
Li Mo raised his head and said, “The key point is above.”
“Above? The dragon totem?”
Fei Yan and the Moon Goddess both raised their heads as well.
Above the treasure box was that peculiar mural altar.
While the two wondered what the key point was, the dragon mural’s eyes suddenly lit up with golden light.
A golden beam, straight as a meteor, shone directly on the round gem atop the Illusory Sound Treasure Box.
In an instant, the Illusory Sound Treasure Box lit up like a lamp plugged into a power source.
It dazzled with brilliant light.
A star map slowly appeared above the trio’s heads.
“It’s the zodiac star map.”
Master and apprentice both raised their fair chins to look above, speaking in unison.
They are proficient in the art of astrology and immediately recognized this star map at a glance.
