Li Mo helplessly told Liu Yan why he was going out, hoping she would understand.
Liu Yan was silent for a long time. She understood that everything Li Mo did was for the sake of their sect, for the sake of their future.
But she didn't want to part with Li Mo.
They didn't see each other every day in the sect, but at least she knew Li Mo was by her side.
But this time was different. Even Li Mo didn't know where to go. How could she not worry?
"Sigh!"
Liu Yan sighed and stared straight into Li Mo's eyes.
"Li Mo, remember that I will wait for you. I will give you three years!
If you don't come back, I, Liu Yan, will not live on! "
Liu Yan's words were like a mountain pressing down on Li Mo's heart.
His heart ached, inexplicably so!
"Yan 'er, thank you for your understanding.
I will definitely come back! "
With that said, he took Liu Yan into his arms!
He wished time would stop at this moment, for all eternity.
Squeak!
Squeak!
Squeak!
Suddenly, a soft cry broke the silence.
"Whitey!"
Whitey the blue-eyed ferret had entered Liu Yan's room at some point.
It's been a long time since Li Mo saw the little guy.
He was a lot bigger than before, his fur even whiter!
Liu Yan saw Whitey and broke free from Li Mo's embrace.
With a wave of her hand, Whitey nimbly jumped into her arms and squeaked at Li Mo.
It was protesting his action of holding Liu Yan.
"Ha-ha, Whitey is the best. You are the only one who will always stay by my side."
Liu Yan stroked Whitey's fur while glaring at Li Mo.
Li Mo's face was dark.
But he didn't retort. He had done too little for Liu Yan.
He had long said he would marry her, but he had never been idle.
He secretly swore that when he came back this time, he would marry Liu Yan.
"Li Mo, go!
But you must bring Whitey with you. "
Liu Yan handed Whitey to Li Mo.
"Bring him?"
Li Mo was puzzled, wondering why Liu Yan did this.
"Yes, Little White is very intelligent. With it by your side, I feel more at ease!"
Li Mo couldn't refuse Liu Yan's little request and was about to take Whitey.
Creak!
Creak!
Whitey didn't approve of Liu Yan's methods and barked at Li Mo, venting his discontent.
"Look, it's because you don't interact with it normally, and now it's afraid of you!"
Liu Yan complained to Li Mo then turned to Whitey.
"Xiao Bai, you have to look after him for me, okay?
If he dares to fool around outside, come back and tell me.
If he … if he encounters any danger, you must come back and tell me, okay? "
Liu Yan's tears flowed down again.
It wasn't just Li Mo who didn't know what to do. Even Whitey was staring at Liu Yan with wide eyes.
He seemed to be comforting her as well.
Whoosh!
Whitey hopped onto Li Mo's shoulder!
Creak!
Creak!
Creak!
He called out to Liu Yan twice.
"Good girl!"
Liu Yan finally stopped crying at this time. Looking at the man and the beast, she finally showed a smile!
"Remember, you must come back!
I'll be waiting for you in three years! "
Liu Yan turned away from Li Mo.
Li Mo knew how Liu Yan felt, and so did he.
But how could a man be tied down by love?
"Yan 'er, wait for me to come back and marry you!"
With that, Li Mo left.
He was afraid if he stayed any longer, he would really give up on this trip.
…
Li Mo also greeted Liu Changhe and Liu Shizhong.
They were all worried about his safety, but they all knew Li Mo had to do it himself. No one could do it for him.
Li Mo packed his belongings and left the Immortal Sun Sect with Whitey!
Li Mo took out a map of the Ancient Continent and set his first destination, Snowfall City, near the far north!
The Sumeru Cave appeared in the far north. He wanted to see if there were any other ruins here. Maybe he'd find something!
With his destination in mind, Li Mo took out his shuttle boat.
He flew straight for Snowfall City.
Snowfall City belonged to one of the Ancient Continent's four great provinces, the South Sun Province.
Even if Li Mo flew day and night, he'd need four to five days.
It was a good thing Li Mo brought many spiritual qi recovery pills, making it easy to control the shuttle.
Creak!
Creak!
Creak!
Xiao Bai's big, lively eyes looked left and right, looking at the clouds floating around it. It was extremely excited.
Li Mo couldn't help but laugh. Whitey's reaction was exactly the same as the first time he took the shuttle boat. Everything was new!
Whoosh!
While Li Mo was still immersed in the thrill of flying, a shadow flashed in the distance.
"Black Lotus!"
It was just a flash, but Li Mo recognized it as Nangong Chu's flying magic treasure.
"Damn it, did the Nangong clan have their eyes on me as soon as I came out?"
Thinking of this, Li Mo poured more spiritual qi into the shuttle.
The speed was at least twice as fast. He didn't want to be caught by the Nangong clan.
If that old freak Nangong Yun caught up to him, he'd be done for!
Just as Li Mo expected, that shadow was the Nangong clan's flying magic treasure, Black Lotus.
And Li Mo recognized the person on it, Nangong clan's third elder, Nangong Bo!
Ever since Nangong Yun left the Immortal Sun Sect, he sent out all the clan's elders to hide a hundred li from the sect.
Their goal was to keep an eye on Li Mo, to report the moment he appeared.
Nangong Bo found Li Mo's whereabouts, but he didn't expect Li Mo to be so bold as to go out alone.
He hurried to tell the others to report to Nangong Yun, then went in Li Mo's direction!
"Oh!
He found me! "
Nangong Yun came and went in a flash, but Li Mo was nowhere to be found.
But he wasn't worried he couldn't find Li Mo. All flying magic treasures needed spiritual qi to control them.
And if his spiritual qi leaked, he'd use his Martial Emperor's sensitivity to spiritual qi to find Li Mo.
However, it could not be for too long. Otherwise, even a Martial Honor would not be able to help.
"Far north?
What's the kid doing there? "
Nangong Bo sensed a tyrannical Spiritual Energy spreading out from the extreme north.
"I hope the venerable master will come soon."
Nangong Bo didn't hesitate, fearing he'd lose track of Li Mo.
He controlled the Black Lotus to chase.
All he could do was pray Nangong Yun would hurry.
"Still chasing!"
Li Mo released his spiritual sense and sensed someone a hundred li away closing in on him.
He increased the speed of the shuttle once again.
Nangong Bo was getting more and more shocked. Li Mo's flying speed was a notch higher.
"Damn it, this kid must have a spiritual qi recovery pill on him.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to maintain such a high speed. "
Nangong Bo wanted to give up on the chase. He didn't have any pills on him.
Right now, his spiritual power was severely overdrawn.
But then he sensed Li Mo's speed dropping!
"Oh!
Could it be that I was wrong?
Why did the kid slow down? "
Nangong Bo's desire to do a meritorious deed drove him to find out.
If Li Mo's spiritual qi was drained, then it would be great if he could capture him!
