Chapter 511: Unexpected
All of a sudden, a pained yelp snapped Han Li out of his train of thought.
Han Li turned in that direction to find Mo Yu with his head cocked to the side, and there was a pained look on his face, while his ear was plucked upward by Lu Yuqing.
Wyrm 3 was also rather flabbergasted to see this.
"I told you to stop! You think you can just ignore what I say now?" Lu Yuqing yelled in an angry voice, presenting a stark contrast to the shy display that she had put on just a moment ago.
"Ow! Ow! You're going to tear it off! I'm sorry! I apologize! Please..." Mo Yu hurriedly implored in an agonized voice.
"You always apologize, but when have you ever actually changed? If it wasn't for you, neither of us would've ended up like this!"
Lu Yuqing raised her hand further as she spoke, and Mo Yu's head was also plucked up a bit further as a result.
"I already apologized, didn't I? Please forgive me, there are people watching..." Mo Yu implored as he put on a fawning smile.
Lu Yuqing took a glance at Han Li and Wyrm 3, then gave a cold harrumph as she let go of Mo Yu's ear.
Mo Yu hurriedly clasped a hand over his ear while giving Lu Yuqing a sycophantic smile, looking much like a puppy eagerly trying to suck up to its owner.
"Why did you let those people from the Vast Flow Palace get away? If the Heavenly Court learns of what happened here, you know what the outcome is going to be," Lu Yuqing asked with furrowed brows.
"Those are just small fry, it doesn't matter whether they get away or not. Besides, even if I had killed them, there's still no way that the news of our resurrection could be kept secret," Mo Yu replied.
Lu Yuqing raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, and before she could respond, Mo Yu abruptly turned and cast his gaze toward Han Li and Wyrm 3 as he declared, "It's all thanks to you two that we were able to finally reunite with each other. I'm no saint or gentleman, but I've always paid sure to repay those who have been kind to me, so if you have any requests, feel free to state them, and we'll do our best to fulfill those requests."
Lu Yuqing continued to glower at Mo Yu for a moment, then also turned to Han Li as she said, "Thank you for protecting me all this time, Fellow Daoist Han. It was only thanks to your help that I was able to recover my memories. If I don't repay this favor, then my dao heart will be inhibited, so please do tell us how we can make it up to you."
"Fellow Daoist Han? Weren't those people calling you Fellow Daoist Li earlier? What is your actual name?" Mo Yu asked.
"A name is nothing more than a title. You can just call me Li Feiyu," Han Li replied.
"Even after all we've been through together, you're still hiding your name? Aren't you being a little too cautious?" Mo Yu grumbled in a disgruntled voice.
Wyrm 3 was clearly also curious to hear Han Li's real name, but she didn't say anything. New novel chapters are published on
Han Li didn't want to dwell on this topic any longer, so he turned to Lu Yuqing as he said, "In that case, I'm happy to oblige. Even though I've attained a spirit domain, I'm still not able to completely control it. Both of you are far more experienced with spirit domains than I am, so I'd like you to teach me how to use my spirit domain."
Mo Yu and Lu Yuqing exchanged a glance with one another upon hearing this, following which the former said, "Due to the disparities in the law powers mastered by each person, the way that a spirit domain is used will also differ from person to person, and the only way to truly master one's spirit domain is through experimentation.
However, what came as the biggest surprise to him was that Mo Yu and the Infernal Frost Immortal Lord seemed to have become dao partners countless years ago.
Fate was truly a fickle and whimsical mistress at times.
As these thoughts were flashing through his mind, he turned to take a glance at Wyrm 3, and he couldn't see her expression through her mask, but it seemed that she was in deep thought.
He directed his gaze away from her, then descended onto the collapsed palace down below before releasing his spiritual sense.
Before long, an elated look appeared on his face as he swept a sleeve through the air to release several streaks of azure light in all directions, and the streaks of light quickly carried some objects back to him, namely a few pieces of the shattered golden roof and two destroyed golden puppets.
The roof had been constructed out of some type of golden material with a series of spirit patterns engraved onto its surface, and these roof fragments were giving off a type of special aura that was rather similar to that of his Integrated Five Extremes Mountain.
The golden roof had shown itself to be extremely effective in warding off pill tribulations earlier, and even though it had been shattered, these fragments still retained their spiritual nature, so they were still very useful to him.
As for the two puppets, he was quite interested in them as well.
Meanwhile, Wyrm 3 remained still on the spot, displaying no intention to scour the palace to spoils.
Han Li quickly stowed these things away, yet right as he was about to keep searching, a thick pillar of golden light suddenly descended out of the sky without any warning, encompassing both of them in the blink of an eye.
Han Li felt the air constrict around him, and there was tremendous pressure surging out of the golden light, instantly rendering him completely immobilized.
Countless runes were surging incessantly throughout the golden light, then converged toward Han Li's duo to form a pair of golden arrays.
Both of them felt the entirety of their fields of view being completely filled with golden radiance, following which they abruptly vanished from within the pillar of golden light.
......
Elsewhere in the Infernal Frost Immortal Manor, there stood a relatively well-preserved three-story pagoda in a garden that was overgrown with weeds.
Two people were standing on the top floor of the pagoda, and both of them were looking into the distance.
They were none other than Mo Yu and Lu Yuqing, and the former had his arms wrapped around the latter as he gently stroked her shoulder.
"You're a lot more petite than before. I wasn't able to embrace you like this in the past," Mo Yu chuckled.
"Oh? It sounds like you like this body of mine better than my previous one," Lu Yun remarked as she raised an eyebrow.
Mo Yu's expression instantly stiffened upon seeing this, and cold sweat began to bead up on his forehead as he hurriedly replied, "Your appearance isn't important, what's important to me is what's on the inside!"
