Chapter 266: The World’s Number One Dancer Snow Maiden, Does the National Advisor Not Desire It?
The three had just returned to their previous spot.
Lord Yan Chun came back with his subordinates, cursing and swearing.
Seeing his furious expression, it was clear that the harvest this time was unsatisfactory.
Sure enough, as soon as he approached Li Mo, he began to lament.
“Such a big Mohist Sect, and they couldn’t even gather ten thousand gold. I even brought so many people to carry it, and in the end, what did I get?”
“Goodness, out of twenty boxes, fourteen are empty!”
“These paupers, living in such a big place for nothing.”
Li Mo chuckled, “It’s precisely because the Mohist Sect’s mechanical city is big that they are poor. All the money was spent on building the mechanical city, and they have so many people to support. Where is the surplus?”
“Since there’s not much money, this lord will not covet it.”
Why did Lord Yan Chun start whining as soon as he returned?
Wasn’t it because he was afraid that the already meager treasures would be further divided by Li Mo!
Upon hearing Li Mo’s words, Lord Yan Chun’s dark face instantly brightened.
“Oh, how could I be so shameless? If it weren’t for the National Advisor’s Qilin, I wouldn’t even be able to enter this underground city. You guys, take the boxes up.”
Although his words were polite, his actions were earnest.
Li Mo didn’t bother to argue with him.
Truth be told, the paltry possessions of the Mohist Sect didn’t interest him.
“Oh, by the way, National Advisor, where is your Qilin? I don’t see it around.”
Lord Yan Chun, with a body full of fat, was clearly flabby.
After just a few steps, he was already sweating profusely.
This was a typical case of qi and blood deficiency.
To be more blunt, it means overindulgence in sex.
Actually, Li Mo was also overindulged, even more so than Lord Yan Chun.
But he had the strength to back it up, which Lord Yan Chun could not compare with.
As Lord Yan Chun wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, he observed Li Mo from behind.
Ever since they entered this underground city, the Black Jade Kirin had stayed close by Li Mo’s side.
Lord Yan Chun didn’t even notice when it disappeared.
Li Mo smiled and said, “The task is completed, so of course I sent it back.”
Lord Yan Chun nodded with a strange expression on his face.
“Is that so? That’s good, that’s good.”
Gradually, he began to slow his pace.
Without realizing it, he had fallen far behind Li Mo.
Feeling that the distance was about right, he suddenly turned to his two personal guards and asked, “What’s your father’s surname?”
The two guards were taken aback by his question, looking puzzled.
“My father’s surname is Wang, and he lives next door to you.”
“My father’s surname is also Wang, and he lives behind your house.”
The personal guards of someone with Lord Yan Chun’s status were usually from aristocratic families.
They valued knowing each other’s backgrounds well.
Ordinary people did not have such qualifications.
These two personal guards of his were indeed from aristocratic families, and their homes were not far from his residence.
Hearing this, Lord Yan Chun finally relaxed.
Seeing this, Wang Er asked puzzledly, “Why did you suddenly ask this? My father often visits you at night.”
“You and he even got drunk a few days ago, and it was my father who helped you to Lady’s room and took care of you until midnight before leaving.”
Wang Wu added, “Yes, my father is the same. He often visits you with Wang Er’s father.”
Lord Yan Chun waved his hand and continued walking forward.
He lowered his voice and said, “The Kirin by the Qin State’s National Advisor is quite bizarre. It is said that it can transform into anyone.”
The two guards’ expressions changed instantly.
“You’re worried that the Black Jade Kirin might disguise itself as us and stay close to you?”
“But you have no conflicts with the National Advisor. Why would he do that?”
Lord Yan Chun patted his big belly and said, “It’s always better to be a little more cautious. It’s okay to have harmful intentions, but you should never lack vigilance.”
The two guards exchanged a glance and flattered, “Your thoughtfulness is admirable, My Lord.”
Currently, Lord Yan Chun had only a few people close to him.
These two guards and the four maids left above.
These two guards seemed fine, but the maids couldn’t be guaranteed.
He wasn’t short of women anyway. He could simply replace the four maids when he got back.
When they exited the underground city, Li Mo had been waiting above with Fei Yan and Moon Goddess for quite some time.
The soldiers of Qin State had also assembled, ready to leave.
As soon as Lord Yan Chun reached the top, Li Mo bid him farewell.
Hearing this, Lord Yan Chun immediately tried to persuade him to stay. “The National Advisor just arrived, why leave so soon? Since you’re in Yan State, you should let me show my hospitality.”
“Lord Yan Chun, your courtesy is noted,” Li Mo responded.
But Lord Yan Chun remained insistent, “No, no. The National Advisor came all this way, if you leave now, even King Wanji will blame me.”
“Moreover, Yan State has a special product that I must let the National Advisor experience.”
The Qin State was still holding Yan State accountable for the private escape of Yan Dan.
Although Yan State denied any association, it didn’t mean Qin State would let it go.
But if they could serve the National Advisor well and have him speak favorably of Yan State before the King of Qin, the outcome could be different.
Li Mo shook his head with a smile and said, “I might not have seen everything, but I have some insight. Could the special product of Yan State possibly be unparalleled?”
Lord Yan Chun belly-laughed and said, “The National Advisor is right. This special product does not exist anywhere else.”
Li Mo’s smile remained unchanged, “Even if it is unique, I have no interest now. Let’s talk about it next time if possible; I have other matters to attend to in Qin State.”
Lord Yan Chun stroked his chin with a lewd smile and said, “Does the National Advisor have no interest in seeing the world-renowned dance of Lady Snow from Feixue Pavilion?”
Lord Yan Chun knew that Li Mo had special ways to perceive things, that’s why he mentioned it.
Li Mo paused and turned to Zhang Han: “You all go back to the Qin State first. I have some important business to attend to, so I will stay for a few days.”
Zhang Han: “Yes.”
I’m not deaf, National Advisor!
What important business? Isn’t it just to watch someone dance!
The Moon Goddess was stunned and turned to look at Fei Yan, who remained silent.
Aren’t you going to do something about it?
Fei Yan gave her a look: Why should I?
She had also heard that Snow Girl’s dancing was peerless, unmatched in the world.
It’s a good opportunity for us to see it together.
The Moon Goddess nodded lightly.
Then I’ll go too!
