Chen Mo curiously asked, "Then how do you know that I'm with Yu Hongyin?"
"The image of you saving people in the southern suburbs was recorded by court officials, and coincidentally, the Princess was also present…" Ling Ningzhi explained the general situation.
Upon hearing this, Chen Mo slightly raised an eyebrow. He hadn't deliberately concealed his identity when taking action and anticipated being recognized, but didn't expect it to be recorded by court officials.
"Then what about the Image Stone?"
"It should have already been sent to the Eastern Royal Palace and reported to Her Majesty the Empress."
"..."
"What is it?"
Seeing Chen Mo's stiff expression, Ling Ningzhi asked.
"Nothing…" Chen Mo shook his head, secretly thinking he should have worn a mask.
"Speaking of which, the method you used was truly amazing, like clouds and rain, could it be that you've already broken through to Heavenly Master?" Ling Ningzhi inquired.
"That's right."
Chen Mo opened his palm, and a purple-gold Tai Chi Diagram floated above it.
Feeling the mysterious aura, Ling Ningzhi was momentarily stunned.
"This is…"
Chen Mo said, "Although it was a bit dangerous, there was also opportunity, with the Great Dao Law merging with the Divine Soul, I have now reached the Third Grade Divine Unity."
Ling Ningzhi was silent for a long time.
Even though she was mentally prepared, she couldn't help but be shocked.
Unexpectedly, Chen Mo not only broke through to Third Grade but also skipped "Body Unity" and entered the "Divine and Dao Unity" realm.
When she first met Chen Mo, he was just a Fifth Grade Martial Artist, and unknowingly, he had left her far behind…
"The law you comprehended seems to be more than one?" Ling Ningzhi recovered and asked in confusion, "I also feel a familiar taste, somewhat similar to Master?"
"It's a coincidence, when Daoist Venerable killed the Demon Lord's incarnation, he also helped me enter the Dao Domain, thus I was tainted with a trace of the Law of Cause and Effect…" Chen Mo concisely said.
"And then?" Ling Ningzhi pressed further, "Didn't you do anything else together?"
"Of course not." Chen Mo answered solemnly, "Daoist Venerable helped me with the Dao, I helped him suppress the cost, that's all."
"Is that so?"
Ling Ningzhi scrutinized him, looking doubtful.
Back in the Chen Mansion, she had seen her Master's persistent behavior with her own eyes, and Chen Mo's self-control wasn't exactly strong, so it's hard to say what might have happened.
Chen Mo didn't intend on deceiving her, but now wasn't the right time to reveal everything; it might cause a fallout between the master and disciple, which would be a big problem…
His hand brushed over her slender waist, sliding up her smooth, full curves, and he smiled mischievously, "I smell something sour. Would the Daoist even envy her own Master?"
