"Where am I?"

In a daze, Chen Mo only felt a warm current surging within his body, moisturizing his parched meridians and Qi Sea.

As his consciousness gradually cleared, he slowly opened his eyes.

He saw himself lying on a bed, beside him sat a middle-aged beautiful woman holding his wrist continuously transferring True Qi, her eyes full of worry.

"Mo'er, are you awake?"

The beautiful woman spoke softly.

"Mother?"

Chen Mo instinctively called out.

His gaze swept around, and there were two figures standing beside the bed.

One was a well-dressed man with a goatee, dignified in bearing—likely his foster father.

As for the girl earnestly nibbling on Ginger Braised Pork Trotters... it seemed he had seen her face before losing consciousness, it appears she brought him back.

"Finally safe."

At this, Chen Mo finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mo'er, what exactly happened?"

"Miss Shen said she picked you up at the entrance of the Imperial Music Bureau... How did your body end up so overdrawn?"

He Yuzhi asked with concern.

"Hmph, indulging in debauchery, not even caring for your own life! I see you dying on a woman's belly sooner or later!"

Chen Zhuo expressed his disappointed disapproval.

"No, Mo'er obviously fought with someone..."

"Over a woman?"

"..."

Chen Mo silently shook his head.

It seems his foster father held deep prejudices against him.

He interrupted their conversation, stating succinctly, "Gu Manzhi is the Holy Daughter of the Moon Brilliance Sect, a Sixth-rank Mage, who has been hiding in the Imperial Music Bureau. After I uncovered her identity, I inflicted serious injuries on her..."

"It's probably too late to catch her now."

As he spoke, the room fell silent.

This statement was too loaded, stunning everyone for a moment.

Chen Zhuo's narrow eyes slightly squinted; despite his usual absurdity, he wouldn't joke about such matters.

Has the Sect's reach already extended to Tiandu City?

"Wait a moment..."

"You said she's a Sixth-rank Mage, and you left her heavily injured?"

He Yuzhi was somewhat bewildered, wondering if she had misheard.

Martial Artists have rather straightforward methods; before stepping into the Heavenly Human Realm, they are generally oppressed by Mages of the same level.

Not to mention the opponent is a Sixth-Rank, they were fundamentally an entire major realm apart.

Chen Mo nodded and casually remarked, "It was her carelessness against my preparedness, coupled with my mastery of the Sword Technique, that caught her off guard."

Mastery of the Sword Technique?

He Yuzhi's eyes were filled with disbelief.

The Blazing Eight Slashes that she taught Chen Mo, she naturally understood its intricacies.

If it weren't slightly lacking in 'Daoist Charm,' it could be a powerful Martial Art capable of reaching Heaven Rank!

How could mastering it be easy?

How many talents are stranded at the final step, unable to progress an inch, even she only grasped its essence after transcending mortality.

And Chen Mo was merely a Seventh-rank mortal...

"Although Mo'er is talented, he is not to such an exaggerated extent."

"Could it be that he tapped into hidden potential at a critical moment of life and death, making a breakthrough on the battlefield? Hmm, such instances do happen occasionally... No wonder his body is so overdrawn, that would explain it."

He Yuzhi pondered thoughtfully.

"Someone come."

At this moment, Chen Zhuo called out.

The butler entered through the door, "Master."

Chen Zhuo instructed, "Have Cen Long go to the Imperial Music Bureau immediately..."

Cen Long was the commander of the Chen Family's guards, a Fourth-Level Martial Master.

Given the gravity of this matter, even if they couldn't catch anyone, they could still verify if Chen Mo was telling the truth or not.

"Yes."
