"Oh?" An Mengni tilted her head and said, "And who might you be?"
"Let me introduce you. This is Daoist Qingxuan, the chief of Tianshu Pavilion. She is my cousin, An Mengni, whom I’ve mentioned before." Yu Hongyin stepped forward, worried that An Mengni might say something inappropriate, and reminded, "Daoist Qingxuan is also Mr. Chen’s partner."
"So it is Daoist Qingxuan. I’ve long admired your reputation." An Mengni cupped her hands in respect.
Ling Ningzhi nodded slightly in return.
"By the way, when I went to seek reinforcements and returned, you had vanished. What happened in between?" Yu Hongyin inquired.
"It’s a long story. Chen Mo temporarily drove off Wanqi Kai, but he was greatly exhausted and feared that he might return, so we decided to leave first and found a mountain cave to sleep for the night," An Mengni explained.
Ling Ningzhi’s eyebrows arched as she bluntly asked, "The two of you slept together?"
Yu Hongyin chuckled nervously, "No way, of course, we slept separately..."
Before the words were finished, An Mengni nodded, "That’s right, we slept together."
Yu Hongyin: "..."
An Mengni confessed, "Due to Chen Mo’s extreme mental fatigue, he fell into a deep sleep. To help him recover quickly, I had to use a secret technique to massage him all over, to mobilize his qi-blood..."
"Ahem!"
Noticing Ling Ningzhi’s displeased expression, Yu Hongyin hurriedly interrupted, "Alright, no need for such detail."
Then, glancing at Sikong Zuiyue shrouded in black mist beside them, she changed the subject, "And this... lady, where did she come from?"
An Mengni replied, "She is a master from the Sikong family. We happened to encounter her fighting with Monk Huineng while searching for Immortal Materials. Chen Mo assisted, defeated Huineng, and then signed a contract with her to form an alliance..."
Sign a contract?
Ling Ningzhi’s eyelids twitched.
Only a First Grade Golden Contract can bind a Heavenly Master, extremely rare, even the Tianshu Pavilion doesn’t have any in stock.
These two just met, and they consumed such a precious item, just for a temporary alliance in this Secret Realm?
Her intuition told her this is definitely not that simple!
"It’s only been two days apart, and there are already two more ladies by his side... No, we must include that Female Demon now..."
Ling Ningzhi bit her lip delicately, her eyes full of grievance, "This playboy!"
...
...
Chen Mo followed the Female Demon into the underground.
The flowing sand parted to the sides on its own, and the view gradually darkened.
At first, he was a bit nervous, unsure of the other’s intentions, but after about three breaths, the scene opened up before him.
"This is..."
Witnessing the shocking sight, he couldn’t help but be stunned.
Beneath layers of sand stood a hidden, luxurious palace!
The main body of the palace was built from a certain kind of jade, exuding a cold, luminous sheen, with the dome inlaid with Luminous Pearls to dispel the underground gloom.
The flying eaves and ornate beams were connected by corridors between the main and side halls, and even a withered tree was planted in the courtyard!
Yet everything was enormously large, almost ten times regular size, and an invisible shield held back the yellow sand, leaving no trace of dust.
Strangely enough, even in this subterranean depth, air still flowed, and a slight breeze could be felt, indicating it was achieved through some kind of array.
"Come in..."
With a wave of her hand, the Female Demon opened the shield and led Chen Mo inside.
Chen Mo’s throat moved slightly as he asked, "Do you usually live here?"
The Female Demon glanced at him, saying, "I prefer to sleep in the sand, but I thought you might like this, so I prepared it specially..."
"..."
Chen Mo’s mouth twitched.
Oh no, could it be that this is going to turn into a real situation instead of just play-acting?
In the face of such an unparalleled masterpiece, he felt his feelings turning purple...
The Female Demon proceeded through the palace, passed through the corridors, and entered the sleeping chamber.
The furniture in the bedroom was all oversized as well, with a sheer curtain hanging over the bed, embroidered with mountains and rivers.
The Female Demon lifted the curtain, slowly sat down, and placed him on the bedding.
Chen Mo leaned against the headboard, cautiously asking, "What are we doing next?"
The Female Demon gazed at him, a ripple in her Divine Soul, "Helping you to remember..."
With that, a gleam flashed in her eyes, and a surge of information flooded into his Sea of Consciousness, where countless memory fragments surfaced before him.
