"I knew it, this fellow is so afraid of death that he would certainly not let his own body come in person."
Looking at the Miao Wu, who had turned into fine powder and dispersed, Chen Mo couldn't help but laugh and say.
The nature of this Miao Wu is too clear to him, precisely because he is too conservative, so no matter what the situation is, he will not let his own body take the stage.
Even if he is facing an opponent he is almost certain to defeat, he firmly stated, "Almost 99%? That's no different from suicide."
"Zeze, this guy, how..."
Chu Ruomeng couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, gazing blankly at the disappearing figure with a dazed expression. She lifted her right hand and pinched it, trying to calculate where Miao Wu's original body was.
The result was, it couldn't be calculated.
Really too conservative.
"The ice dragon is also dead"
Chen Mo looked from a distance at the fallen ice dragon and the dissipating formation, and hurriedly jumped down, rushing over eagerly.
Then, Chen Mo took out the giant sword in his hand and drew a few strokes on the ice dragon's body, directly extracting its crystal core.
"Good stuff."
Chen Mo looked at the crystal core emitting a faint cold aura, and couldn't help but reveal a joyful smile on his face.
"This ice dragon is full of treasures. The dragon scales, dragon tendons, dragon horns, dragon blood... anything that can be seen can be utilized. Master Chen wants which one, I can help him take it down"
Chu Ruomeng hurried after him, smiling warmly as she said.
Chen Mo looked up and down, then rubbed his chin and said, "Can I have all of them?"
Chu Ruomeng was stunned for a moment, then smiled indulgently, "That's definitely possible"
Said and done, Chu Ruomeng waved her hand, and suddenly a formation appeared beneath the ice dragon. In an instant, the dragon's body disappeared without a trace.
"I have already sealed the dragon's body with a formation. If Master Chen needs it, just let me know. I will definitely help you retrieve it."
"Then thank you so much, Miss Ruomeng"
Chen Mo bowed his hands and raised his eyes to fixate on Chu Ruomeng, noticing that she seemed somewhat different from before. He couldn't help but speak out of curiosity.
"Miss Ruomeng, I can't help but feel that you seem to have become a different person."
"Is there something?"
Caught by Chen Mo's direct, piercing gaze, Chu Ruomeng unconsciously raised her hand to try to tousle a strand of hair by her ear. But as soon as she lifted her hand, she realized that this action was inappropriate, and immediately dropped her hand.
Chen Mo furrowed his brow and observed Chu Ruomeng's every move, then added, "To be honest, Miss Ruomeng is only a second-level array master. How can her strength be so strong? Although the ice dragon is only half a first-grade, its body is extremely strong, even if that first-grade couldn't easily defeat it just now."
"Moreover, the person from before was also a first-grade master. Although not an original body, their strength had already reached the level of a first-grade master."
"You were able to solve two first-grade masters with a single move. Even if your array is very strong, that's just too exaggerated."
"And, was that the Nine Dragon Lock Dragon Array you just used? If I remember correctly, that is a formation that only a first-grade master would use..."
Chen Mo's questions piled up one after another, pressing closely, almost like an accusation. In that moment, Chu Ruomeng felt flustered and stepped back two steps.
However, Chen Mo quickly caught up with her. As the two faced each other, Chu Ruomeng opened her mouth.
"That's because, I borrowed the strength of the hall master."
"Yes, it's the power of the hall master. Before I came, the hall master had predicted that we would encounter powerful enemies, so she gave me means to deal with them early on."
"Master..."
Chen Mo frowned slightly, and the explanation did seem plausible.
After all, the master of the Celestial Mechanism Pavilion is indeed very mysterious. Moreover, their Celestial Mechanism Pavilion has the ability to divine the heavens, and especially so for the master of the Celestial Mechanism Pavilion, whose abilities are even greater.
The dangers she encountered along the way all had a trace of her help.
Chen Mo, for the moment, believed what Chu Ruomeng said. Just as he was about to speak, he saw her body suddenly collapse.
Chen Mo acted quickly, reaching out to support her as he hurried forward.
"What's wrong?"
Chen Mo asked in concern.
"No, nothing. The emergency measure the master gave me is powerful, but it also has a severe backlash."
While speaking, Chu Ruomeng didn't shy away from embracing Chen Mo's neck with both hands, saying directly, "Master Chen, just now I used the emergency measure given to me by the master in order to protect you. As a result, my body is weak and weak. Please help me up."
Chu Ruomeng noticed Chen Mo's fluster, and quickly spoke up.
Chen Mo winced at the corner of his mouth. "You call this 'helping'? This is clearly a hug."
"I suspect that you are taking advantage of me. I also have evidence."
"Miss Ruomeng, this seems a bit inappropriate, doesn't it"
Chen Mo hesitated for a moment before speaking.
"If it were Little Bean Sprout or Li Wu Xin doing these things, Chen Mo wouldn't find it strange at all. After all, they are too familiar with each other. But with Chu Ruomeng, their relationship doesn't seem to be so intimate."
Such behavior seems to have crossed the line.
"Master Chen, you can't do this. I am weak because of you, and you can't not take responsibility."
While speaking, Chu Ruomeng held him even tighter.
Chen Mo was nearly suffocated and patted Chu Ruomeng's shoulders lightly to stop her, "Don't, don't, I'll take responsibility..."
Upon hearing this, Chu Ruomeng loosened her grip. She opened her mouth as if to say something, but was immediately seen through by Chen Mo, who then turned around and said, "I'll carry you on my back."
"I... also okay"
Chu Ruomeng swallowed the words back at her lips. She had intended for Chen Mo to give her a princess carry, which would allow her to look at his face all the time.
However, seeing the other person's expression, it was clear that he wasn't yet used to it, so she wouldn't trouble him.
Although he had carried Chu Ruomeng on his back, throughout the way, Chen Mo felt that she wasn't being honest with him. She would either touch him here and there or blow her breath into his ear from time to time.
Chen Mo was certain that he had been teased by Chu Ruomeng. Such behavior reminded him of his sister Chu Ruolì, which he found very unadaptable.
Although Chen Mo had tried to stop her, Chu Ruomeng would simply respond with, "I'm not feeling well, I'm a bit dizzy and don't know what I've done. Master Chen should be more lenient with me since it's all for your sake..."
Alright, Chen Mo had no reason to stop her, so he could only endure the discomfort of being teased as he carried Chu Ruomeng and walked towards the central area.
Snow continued to fall from the sky, but it never landed on Chen Mo.
After walking through the wind and snow for an unknown period of time, Chen Mo finally saw a high mountain in the distance.
Like a towering pillar, reaching up to the sky.
The high mountain was somewhat strange, with snow covering it on Chen Mo's side. However, on the other three sides, there were fallen leaves flying, some bare of grass, and others lush with foliage.
"Here we are."
Chen Mo looked up at the mountain and opened his mouth, but Chu Ruomeng behind him remained motionless.
Never mind, it seems she won't voluntarily get off... Chen Mo thought, and began to climb the mountain with Chu Ruomeng on his back. Along the way, he could see a few silhouettes faintly.
It should be that they came to this place by mistake.
The wind and snow on the mountain were huge. Chen Mo was facing the wind and snow as he climbed up, when suddenly, a red figure rushed over from the side path.
"Big brother"
Little Bean Sprout, with twin ponytails and wearing a dark red palace dress, came running towards Chen Mo with open arms, eager to give him a big hug.
Suddenly, she saw Chu Ruomeng on Chen Mo's back and her footsteps came to a halt. A hint of anger could be seen in her eyes...
