Dawn’s faint light, the soft rays seep through the sheer bed curtains, casting a hazy glow over that exceptionally beautiful face.
Her delicate cheeks blushed pink, like dawn clouds rising, her eyes shimmering, carrying a bashful reluctance to speak.
Chen Mo’s gaze slightly lost focus.
After all, he was well-accustomed to the ways of the world.
Cold elegance, mature charm, youthful vigor, heroic spirit... He had seen all sorts of stunning beauties, but when it came to being enchanting, Gu Manzhi was in a class of her own.
That special temperament, a mixture of allure and innocence, was like poppy, seductive and obviously dangerous, yet irresistibly addictive.
Gu Manzhi nestled in Chen Mo’s embrace, her acute spiritual sense as a Sixth-rank Mage allowed her to clearly feel his breathing grow heavy, muscles tense, Qi-blood pumping like wildly beating drums.
"Hmm?"
"This is..."
Suddenly, she noticed a change, her pretty face instantly flushed red.
She nearly forgot, she herself possessed the Innate Extreme Yin Body, and hadn’t consciously restrained her aura.
A robust martial cultivator, plus the morning buff, how could he keep under control?
"My constitution hasn’t fully matured, this could be detrimental to him... Moreover, this is too fast..."
"But pushing him away now, wouldn’t that be too cruel?"
Gu Manzhi’s heart was in turmoil.
At that moment, she recalled a secret manual from Yu’er, containing some techniques that seemed to achieve the effect without going that far...
Her teeth lightly biting her red lips, her eyes determined, seemingly making a firm decision.
Chen Mo felt quite awkward at the moment.
Xiao Chen pointed at the demoness before him, ready to act at any moment.
"Right, I have the Supreme Heart-Cleansing Mantra, definitely can suppress it!"
"Bright as it appears, elusive as it is, wisdom clear and mind serene... Huh?!"
His chant abruptly stopped.
Under Chen Mo’s incredulous gaze, Gu Manzhi sat up, tied up her hair, and slowly leaned forward.
...
Yu’er opened her blurry sleepy eyes.
Last night was her first real sleep, rather than just being on standby as usual.
The mysterious aura emitted by Chen Mo during his breathing exercises made her feel exceptionally comfortable, her Divine Soul and body more harmonious, her control improved significantly.
She propped herself up, rubbed her eyes, and seeing this scene, curiosity flickered in her eyes.
What are they doing?
After watching closely for a while, she couldn’t help but cuddle up closer.
?!
Chen Mo: Σ(ŎдŎ|||)ノノ
...
It was broad daylight.
After expending both essence and energy, Chen Mo left the Imperial Music Bureau.
Gu Manzhi calmed her breathing, her cheeks still flushed with red, the shadow on the ground suddenly twisted, and a figure wrapped in a grey robe suddenly appeared.
"Chen Mo left?"
"..."
"Lucky I ran fast last night, or he’d have discovered me."
"..."
"Hey, why aren’t you speaking?"
"..."
Seeing the robed figure approaching, Gu Manzhi tensed, swallowed something with a gulp.
The robed figure curiously asked, "What are you eating? Give me some, I haven’t had breakfast yet."
Gu Manzhi’s face flushed red, her eyes glaring at him full of murderous intent.
"Ye Henshui, I’ll kill you sooner or later!"
The robed figure, a bit confused, scratched his head, "Such morning temper... Hm? What’s that smell..."
"Scram!"
...
...
...
Chengran Street, Jinxiu Workshop.
The mistress had just seen off a few ladies when a tall figure walked in.
"I’m here for clothes."
The man was wrapped in a black robe, wearing a hood, his whole person obscured in shadows, his voice deep and raspy.
"Young master, you’ve come."
The mistress recognized him at a glance.
After all, not many men visit here, especially one so tall and heroic, standing out like a crane among chickens.
