Chapter 326: Do You Want It? Da Shiming: Yes!
“I heard from Hong Liang that you have guests here, so I came to take a look.”
“What’s going on? Did you make her kneel?”
Li Mo was led to the pavilion by Fei Yan.
He pointed to Da Shiming, who was still kneeling on the ground, and asked Fei Yan.
Fei Yan gently shook her head, looking up at him with innocent, dark, gentle eyes.
It was Da Shiming who frightened herself; Fei Yan had merely made a casual remark, and she got scared and knelt down.
Li Mo surely knew the background of the situation.
He was already aware of it when Da Shiming was outside the mountain courtyard.
The events that followed were even clearer to him.
As expected, Da Shiming had come for the Illusion Sound Treasure Box.
“Get up; if people find out that the National Advisor’s estate makes guests kneel, they might say I bully others with authority.”
Li Mo casually sat down and jokingly said, “Just like zero six seven.”
Da Shiming instinctively looked at Fei Yan, who was standing behind Li Mo.
Initially, she wanted to ask for her opinion.
But she found that Fei Yan’s attention was entirely focused on Li Mo, not even glancing at her.
Da Shiming hesitated for a moment, then bravely stood up slowly.
Her gaze never left Fei Yan.
As long as Fei Yan’s expression became even slightly off, she would immediately kneel again!
Li Mo understood clearly.
He couldn’t help but find it interesting.
This Da Shiming seems quite afraid of Fei Yan.
“Da Shiming of the Yin-Yang School pays respects to the National Advisor.”
Seeing that Fei Yan didn’t show any unusual expression, Da Shiming finally felt completely at ease.
Li Mo smiled and said, “I wondered who it was; it turns out to be the Fire Elder of the Yin-Yang School.”
Da Shiming was not actually very old, but she exuded a mature, elegant vibe.
Her pair of red, delicate hands was exceedingly eye-catching.
Only someone with her enchanting temperament could make such oddly colored hands look good.
They didn’t lose their beauty; instead, they seemed even more alluring.
If those hands were used for catching chickens, it would surely have its own flavor!
Before Da Shiming could reply, Li Mo continued, “By the way, what do you need from Fei Yan?”
Da Shiming didn’t dare to tell the truth.
She quickly found an excuse: “I was ordered to handle affairs in Xi’an and came by to pay my respects to Lady Dongjun.”
Li Mo chuckled.
He turned to Fei Yan and smiled, “Your subordinate isn’t bad; she understands manners quite well.”
Fei Yan glanced at Da Shiming and softly replied, “That’s about all she’s good for.”
Whether Da Shiming understood manners depended entirely on who she was with.
If it weren’t for the fact that she still had some usefulness, Fei Yan would have killed her when she reported her whereabouts to the Moon Goddess.
“By the way, I just came from Jing Ni. She said she has something to discuss with you. Do you want to go over?”
Li Mo suddenly changed the subject and spoke to Fei Yan.
Da Shiming’s heart raced with shock.
Jing Ni?
If memory serves, the heavenly-level killer from the Luo Network was also named Jing Ni.
Such a name is quite rare.
Ordinary people wouldn’t give themselves such a name.
Jing Ni was named after the Jing Ni Sword.
Da Shiming suddenly realized.
No wonder she hadn’t noticed any guards in the mountain courtyard.
If this Jing Ni is indeed the previous heavenly-level killer from the Luo Network, combined with Li Mo and Fei Yan,
the palace wouldn’t necessarily be safer than here.
There was no need to increase the guards at all!
It’s no wonder Fei Yan said earlier that there are many experts here.
There might be other powerful individuals hiding here that she hadn’t noticed.
In fact, that was indeed the case.
Da Shiming should be grateful that she hadn’t felt any murderous intent when she entered the mountain courtyard earlier.
Otherwise, the Reverse Scale would have sensed her killing intent and taken action!
“Alright, I’ll go over now.”
Fei Yan knew that Li Mo had intentionally sent her away.
After all, matters that unified their hearts could not be known by the Yin-Yang School.
Once Fei Yan left, only Li Mo and Da Shiming remained in the courtyard.
Da Shiming curiously observed the cloth band covering Li Mo’s eyes.
It seemed she was pondering how he had known she was kneeling there.
“You come to my courtyard; I suppose it’s not just to greet Fei Yan, right?”
Just as Da Shiming was lost in thought, Li Mo suddenly asked coldly.
Da Shiming was startled for a moment: “What do you mean, National Advisor?”
Li Mo raised an eyebrow slightly.
“You know in your heart.”
Before Da Shiming could formulate a response, he suddenly reached into his sleeve.
He pulled out something and displayed it in the palm of his hand before Da Shiming’s eyes.
“Did he send you to get this?”
Da Shiming’s red lips widened in shock.
What Li Mo was holding was the treasured Illusion Sound Treasure Box of the Yin-Yang School!
This item had long since disappeared from the Yin-Yang School, and she had only seen it in pictures.
The treasure box in Li Mo’s hand looked exactly like the one in the images!
Da Shiming could hardly believe that he not only recognized her intention for coming but also took it out in front of her.
What was this?
Showing off?
Knowing that I wouldn’t dare to snatch it, so you took it out to provoke me, right?
Da Shiming felt a silent bitterness.
She thought this trip would just involve taking a treasure box from the Moon Goddess, a simple task.
Unexpectedly, after all the twists and turns, the treasure box ended up in Li Mo’s hands.
It would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens to take it from him!
“Yes, yes.”
Now that her purpose had been exposed by Li Mo, there was no point in continuing to hide it.
If she persisted in being obstinate, it might only infuriate him.
Li Mo chuckled and directly asked while holding the Illusion Sound Treasure Box, “Do you want it?”
Da Shiming was momentarily dazed by his words.
Do I want it?
How could I not want it!
She dreamt about it!
If she could bring this back, it would be a huge achievement!
Even the Moon Goddess was helpless and could only let it be seized; it would be her who turned the tide and brought it back to the Yin-Yang School.
Just thinking about it made Da Shiming uncontrollably excited!
“It seems you don’t want it.”
Seeing that Da Shiming had not replied for a long time, Li Mo shook his head and prepared to put the Illusion Sound Treasure Box back into his sleeve.
“I want it! I want it!”
Da Shiming’s heart raced in panic.
If not for her fear of Li Mo’s strength, she would probably have lunged at him to snatch it!
But even if she said she wanted it, what good would it do?
Did he think just because she wanted it, he would give it to her?
“Since you want it, it’s not impossible to give it to you.”
Li Mo’s words completely short-circuited Da Shiming’s brain!
Huh?
