Chen Mo furrowed his brows.
According to the game plot, the protagonist should be an inner sect disciple of Kuixing Sect, currently a Seventh-Level Warrior preparing to leave the mountain to gain experience.
He had planned to intercept him midway…
But the protagonist does not exist at all?
"No character created, so there is no so-called protagonist?"
"I don't know if that's good or bad… but the subsequent plot seems even harder to predict."
Chen Mo shook his head and decided to think no more of it.
In "Unmatched Immortal," the antagonists are frighteningly strong, and the protagonist is actually the underdog.
Otherwise, in his past life, there wouldn't have been a need to cheat…
Moreover, with his current strength, he has completely overwhelmed them, not even worth considering.
"Is this person very important to you?"
Seeing him silent, Xu Qingyi couldn't help but ask.
Chen Mo came back to his senses and casually said: "Not as important as Director Xu."
Xu Qingyi was slightly taken aback, her beautiful brows furrowed, she coldly said, "General Chen, mind your manners, we aren't familiar enough to joke like this…"
Before she could finish, seeing that Chen Mo was about to pull out a token, Xu Qingyi swiftly disappeared in a flash.
"Hmph, lucky you're quick on your feet."
Chen Mo, with hands behind his back, wobbled away.
Not far away, Xu Qingyi hid behind a pillar, peeking at his departing figure, grinding her silver teeth.
"Annoying fellow!"
…
Haitang Pond.
Yu Youhan soaked in the warm Spiritual Spring.
Kneeling behind her, Xu Qingyi combed her silky long hair with a white jade comb.
Recalling the situation just now, a hint of annoyance flashed in Yu Youhan's eyes, the tingling sensation in her body seemed not yet dissipated.
"Could even pressing a foot… Could this dog-like lackey actually be the Heart Demon destined for me?"
But it's comforting that she endured longer than last time.
It seems desensitization training must continue.
"Qingyi."
Yu Youhan spoke up, "What do you think of Chen Mo?"
Xu Qingyi paused in her movements, after a moment of silence, answered, "Seemingly frivolous, but actually meticulous minded, his strength is top among his peers, a talent that can be utilized."
Yu Youhan nodded, "It's rare to hear such high praise from you."
"But…"
Xu Qingyi's delicate nose wrinkled slightly, her eyes stirred, "His character is too mischievous, truly annoying!"
Yu Youhan glanced at her in surprise.
As a personal Female Officer, Xu Qingyi was normally calm and restrained, seldom showing such emotional display.
It looks like…
She is quite familiar with Chen Mo?
"Without using force, what do you think Chen Mo's weakness is? How can he be defeated?"
Yu Youhan pondered.
That day in the nightmare, she was defeated by Heart Demon, and then was bound by red silk.
To break free from the restraint, she may need to completely overcome this "Heart Demon" Chen Mo.
"Without using force?"
Xu Qingyi uttered without hesitation, "For dealing with men, it's none other than beauty…"
Realizing her words were a bit improper, she paused.
Yu Youhan's lips slightly parted:
"But go on."
These four words echoed like a maxim, making Xu Qingyi uncontrollably spill out her thoughts:
"As the saying goes, where there is male strength, there lies the interest to seek pleasure."
"This world's men, as long as they breathe, none are free from lust."
"After all, working a bull to death does not ruin the farmland; as long as you demand constantly, I guarantee he won't even hold a knife steady, what waves can he create then?"
"It's a kind of victory after all… Mmm mmm mmm!"
Xu Qingyi, in a panic, continued babbling non-stop.
Eventually, she could only use both hands to tightly cover her mouth, to stop making any noise.
"Working a bull to death, farmland not ruined?"
"Demanding day and night?"
Yu Youhan's brows twitched wildly.
Raising her eyes to gaze at her, it was as though she was seeing her for the first time.
"I didn't expect this side of you, Xu Qingyi."
"…"
Director Xu was teary-eyed without tears.
Wronged, oh how the books write it so…
…
Prince Mansion.
Loud crashing sounds came from the study.
The servants shivered like cold cicadas, no one daring to check the situation.
The room was a mess, tables and chairs overturned, vases shattered… A pale-faced young man in splendid garments gasped heavily, grinding his teeth, "Useless, all useless!"
"Princely Heir, calm your anger."
Beside him, an elderly butler with slightly graying hair and beard spoke in a deep voice.
"How could Yan Liang, that useless fool, be caught by his own people?"
"And even a Sixth-rank Mage was implicated!"
The young man in ornate clothing gritted his teeth in hatred.
With Yan Liang's power alone, it was impossible for him to transport the Barbarian Slave from the Southern Border to Tiandu City.
Obviously, he had his backing.
Now that both were incarcerated in the Imperial Prison, it was only a matter of time before they confessed!
Raising a Barbarian Slave was a trivial matter for him, but if the investigation dug deeper into forbidden areas...
There could be serious trouble!
"Who is in charge of this case?"
The young man in ornate clothing asked, regaining his composure.
The butler answered, "The son of the Right Deputy Imperial Censor Chen Zhuo, General Chen Mo from the Sky Scale Guard's Gui Water Department."
The young man frowned, "This name sounds familiar."
"It also involved him during the last Imperial Music Bureau incident."
"Recently, he has visited the palace twice in succession, it is evident that Imperial Consort Yu holds him in high regard," the butler added.
Hearing the name of Imperial Consort Yu, a hint of fear flashed in the eyes of the young man in ornate clothes.
"It seems he is a troublesome character after all."
"But as long as he is human, he has weaknesses..."
...
Sky Scale Guard, drill field.
"General Chen."
"My Lord."
Chen Mo entered the gate, and the Assistant Officer Captains bowed their heads in greeting, their eyes filled with awe.
Word of last night's events had already spread.
It was believed that after cutting off Yan Liang's hand, Chen Mo would face fierce retaliation.
However, unexpectedly, less than a day had passed, and he had already sent the brothers Yan Liang to the Imperial Prison!
Such methods were indeed chilling!
Now, even the people from the Ding Fire Department dare not lift their heads in front of Chen Mo, fearful of being targeted by this grim reaper!
Even the nephew of the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice had fallen, not to mention these minor underlings?
Swoosh!
Suddenly, the sound of the wind howled fiercely.
A Stray Blade slashed towards him like lightning, reaching his neck in an instant!
Chen Mo stood unflinchingly, flicked a finger on the blade's edge, tilting the long sword slightly, brushing past his hair!
Li Yuan retracted the Stray Blade, her gaze filled with astonishment.
"Have you gotten stronger?"
"You're just too weak."
Chen Mo stood with his hands behind his back.
The right hand behind his back was tingling.
Green Essence surged, rapidly healing the cut finger that was slashed by the Sword Qi.
He originally wanted to show off like Shen Shuqiu with a single-finger blade flick, but it almost went wrong...
After all, the opponent was a top Six-rank Martial Artist from the Qingyun Ranking, and the gap between them hadn't reached this extent.
"What, want to avenge Yan Liang?" Chen Mo sneered.
Li Yuan disdainfully said, "What is he worth?"
She had always looked down on Yan Liang.
Mediocre strength, bullying others, relying on a bit of background.
Her intervention last time was merely to save the face of the Ding Fire Department.
Now with conclusive evidence sending him to the Imperial Prison, he was already a dead man in her eyes.
"So what are you doing here..."
"Last time we fought, I had some insights and wanted to test them against you."
Looking at the excited expression in Li Yuan's eyes, Chen Mo felt a bit of a headache.
He thought for a moment and said:
"How about this, I'll only make one move. When you feel you can take this one strike, come find me again."
"One move?"
Li Yuan frowned, feeling insulted.
"Watch carefully."
Chen Mo's right hand rested on the sword hilt, his aura retracted, calm as still water.
The next moment, a saber light tore through the void like the roar of a dragon, stirring the soul!
Li Yuan's pupils shrank to pinpoints, her body stiffened, unable to move even a finger, watching helplessly as she was shredded by the sword light!
It took a long while for her to recover, only to find her body intact.
Chen Mo had never drawn his sword from beginning to end, and had shattered her will merely with his Sword Intent!
"What kind of sword technique is this?"
Li Yuan stood frozen in place, still as a statue.
Chen Mo passed by her, walking leisurely into the distance, his light voice reaching her ears:
"Keep practicing, you're still too green."
