Chapter 376: The Grand Priestess Was Shocked. Did you four sleep together last night?
Fei Yan looked at the bamboo slip in the hand of the “Lord of the Divine” and said, “So, does that mean the final secret of the Seven Mansions of the Azure Dragon is this bamboo slip?”
She looked puzzled again.
“But what exactly does this bamboo slip represent?”
Li Mo was also considering this question.
If this bamboo slip truly was the ultimate mystery of the Seven Mansions of the Azure Dragon, then wouldn’t what he had been pursuing all along become unattainable?
He didn’t seek power to control the world.
What he wanted was longevity!
To be able to stay with his ladies forever.
But what could this bamboo slip possibly represent?
Ultimate martial arts techniques?
The path to save and aid others?
Or perhaps the secret to immortality?
Until he truly obtained this bamboo slip, everything remained an unknown.
Li Mo suddenly felt a discomfort in his chest.
A sense of panic unlike any he had felt before emerged.
He feared that after all his efforts, the outcome might not be what he wished.
Now, the Seven Mansions of the Azure Dragon was the only thing giving him hope for longevity.
If it ultimately did not align with his aspirations, how would he seek the path to immortality?
Like Ying Zheng in history, expending enormous resources to search overseas for elixirs?
Practice the evil techniques left by the Chiyou Demon Spirit, turning himself into a monster that was neither human nor ghost?
As she gazed at the last mural, Fei Yan seemed to sense something and raised her head to look at Li Mo.
She happened to see Li Mo frowning, his face displaying a reluctant expression.
Fei Yan instantly understood what he was thinking.
She grasped Li Mo’s hand and comforted, “Everything is still uncertain. Perhaps what is recorded on it is the technique for longevity?”
Li Mo knew full well that Fei Yan was trying to console him.
He didn’t want Fei Yan to worry about him.
He could only put away the three murals on the table, forcing a smile and saying, “You’re right, my lady. There’s no need to worry about things that haven’t come to pass. Let’s rest early.”
After speaking, he flicked his fingers, turning the three pieces of paper into a pile of ashes, extinguished the lamp, and took Fei Yan back to the bedside.
The room suddenly fell silent.
Fei Yan turned her head to glance at Li Mo, who was pretending to sleep with his eyes closed.
She knew Li Mo was still thinking about the matter of the Seven Mansions of the Azure Dragon.
After longing for so long, how could he easily stop thinking about it?
Moreover, it was very likely that something could go wrong.
Fei Yan sighed softly to herself, then sat up, put on her shoes, and walked toward the door.
It seemed the only way to keep him from overthinking was to take a certain action.
“Where are you going, my lady?”
Li Mo opened his eyes and asked as he watched Fei Yan prepare to leave.
Fei Yan’s eyes flickered, “Um… just going to relieve myself.”
Without waiting for Li Mo to ask further, she opened the door and walked out.
Li Mo touched his chin, muttering to himself, “That’s strange. You’re on the verge of entering the Spirit Realm; didn’t you reach a state of no leaks already? Why would you still need to relieve yourself?”
Feeling puzzled, Li Mo closed his eyes, and his perception instantly covered the entire palace.
Soon, he spotted Fei Yan’s figure.
Upon sensing the direction Fei Yan was heading, Li Mo’s expression suddenly became exciting.
Half a stick of incense later, the door was pushed open again.
Fei Yan returned once more.
However, this time, they were accompanied by the Moon Goddess and Li Wu!
That night, Li Mo indeed did not indulge in wild thoughts.
Because he didn’t sleep at all that night!
He was too busy to think wildly!
The next day, feeling refreshed, Li Mo opened the door.
He shut the door behind him and stretched in a big yawn at the entrance.
Even though he hadn’t slept all night, he felt unprecedentedly comfortable.
Fei Yan truly set an example among wives; such a good woman is indeed hard to find, even with a lantern.
I love you!
Just as he finished stretching and let his hands drop, Li Mo noticed a group of people walking towards him.
Leading them was the Saintess of Loulan.
Upon spotting Li Mo from a distance, the Saintess smiled and even quickened her pace.
“Greetings, Lord of the Divine.”
“Is this… breakfast being delivered?”
As the group approached, Li Mo pointed to the trays held by the maidens behind the Saintess and asked.
The Saintess respectfully replied, “In response to the Lord of the Divine, these are some unique snacks from Loulan, specially brought for you to taste.”
After speaking, she looked towards the closed door behind Li Mo and inquired, “Shall I have them bring it to your room?”
Li Mo’s forehead twitched a few times, and he waved his hand at the door, saying, “No, no, let’s eat somewhere else.”
What are you joking about?
The battlefield inside hasn’t even been cleaned up yet. If the Saintess saw that, wouldn’t he lose all face?
What about Fei Yan and the Moon Goddess? Wouldn’t their reputation be ruined too?
Though the Saintess brought a group of women, there were still some situations that shouldn’t be seen.
The image of Fei Yan and the others in front of outsiders must not be tarnished.
While the Saintess found it strange why Li Mo was blocking her from entering, she naturally didn’t dare to question or refuse after the Lord of the Divine spoke.
“Understood, then I will lead you to the Great Hall.”
Although the temple was destroyed, the Great Hall still remained.
It was the same place where they had dinner the night before.
The maidens holding the trays turned around and hurried towards the Great Hall.
The Saintess and Li Mo followed leisurely behind.
She couldn’t shake the feeling that Li Mo’s earlier behavior was a bit odd; why wouldn’t he let her into his room?
As they turned a corner, the Saintess suddenly slowed her pace slightly.
Taking the opportunity while Li Mo moved ahead, she glanced back towards his room.
At that moment, she saw Fei Yan and the Moon Goddess coming out of the room together.
The Saintess’s eyes widened in shock, and she immediately understood the situation.
So these four spent the night together?
After the shock, the Saintess regained her composure, and looking at Li Mo’s back as he walked ahead, her eyes filled with admiration.
She couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.
As expected, the Lord of the Divine can handle three at once!
Impressive!
Noticing that Li Mo was walking farther away, the Saintess hurriedly quickened her pace to catch up.
Li Mo certainly noticed the change in her demeanor.
Every expression and movement of the Saintess did not escape him.
He hadn’t known what the Saintess would think of this scene.
But, little girl, what’s with that look of admiration on your face?
