"Brother Li Mo, what's wrong?"
Hearing Li Mo's pained cry, Wang Zixuan and the other two turned to him.
"No … nothing, I was bitten by a hateful bug.
It's getting late and we should all get some rest! "
After brushing them off, Li Mo bared his teeth and rubbed the spot Zi Lingwei pinched. He glared hatefully at the smug Zi Lingwei.
…
As the sky brightened, Li Mo extinguished the fire.
Although he was a good judge of character, he didn't sleep for the whole night just in case.
He kept watch over Zi Lingwei. She was a girl after all.
Sleeping in the same room as him was still acceptable. After all, they were in the same guild.
But with three outsiders present, even if they were gentlemen, Li Mo had to do it. He was responsible for Zi Lingwei.
"Li Mo, why are you up so early?"
Violet Spirit opened her eyes and couldn't help asking Li Mo next to her.
"Do you think I'm heartless?
I didn't sleep all night! "
“
Zi Lingwei's face blushed and a warm feeling rose in her heart. She understood why Li Mo did this.
"It's still early. Get some rest!"
"Forget it, I'm not tired!
Let's go in a bit! "
Li Mo stood up and packed their belongings before leaving with Zi Lingwei.
"Yo!
Brother Li Mo, you're up so early!
Why, are you guys leaving? "
Wang Zixuan woke up as well.
"Yeah!
We still have business to attend to. See you later! "
Their characters weren't bad, but Li Mo didn't want to get too close to them.
"Alright!
Then we shall meet again. When brother Li Mo does, I will be sure to treat you with the best! "
Li Mo smiled at Wang Zixuan as a response.
Then he left with Zi Lingwei!
…
"Bro, are they gone?"
Perhaps Li Mo's voice startled Zhang Qing and Shi Yang. After Li Mo and Zi Lingwei left, the two of them woke up!
"En!
They're gone.
But this Li Mo is no simple character. He's about the same age as us but his power is above us! "
Looking at the door of the thatched hut, Wang Zixuan sighed.
"Ah!
His level is actually higher than yours?
That's just too sick! "
"Yeah, I didn't see through his strength yesterday. I thought he was just a little stronger than the two of us.
I didn't expect Li Mo to be stronger than big brother! "
Hearing Wang Zixuan's words, Zhang Qing and Shi Yang were both shocked.
"We must pull such an outstanding person into our guild if there's a chance!
Alright, it's getting late, let's go! "
After saying that, Wang Zixuan got up and walked out.
…
"Li Mo, the next time something like this happens, you will not let anyone stay the night with us without my permission.
Otherwise, you should know what the result would be! "
Zi Lingwei and Li Mo rode side by side. She raised her right hand and complained.
Li Mo shuddered at the memory of yesterday's heart-wrenching pain.
He would rather take a stab than try that sour and pleasurable feeling again.
"Don't worry, don't worry!
There will be no next time! "
"Humph!
That's more like it! "
As he spoke, he whipped his horse and galloped away!
Li Mo shook his head with a bitter smile and followed.
After another day of rushing, Li Mo and Zi Lingwei arrived at their destination, the Plains of Death, before it was too dark!
"Wow!
This is truly the Plains of Death!
How come I can't even feel a trace of life? "
Li Mo couldn't help but frown at the desolate landscape and the white bones of unknown beasts.
"We just reached the edge of the Plains of Death and haven't even entered.
At that time, you will see the demonic beasts and the people who hunt them. These beast bones look very fresh. They should have been peeled off by humans not long ago. "
"Alright!
Let's find a place to spend the night and enter tomorrow morning! "
Li Mo dismounted and looked around for a place to rest.
However, this place was not like the Dense Fog Forest. There was no cover at all, let alone a thatched hut like last night!
"It seems we'll have to sleep in the open again!"
Sighing, Li Mo walked over to a mound.
They chose to spend the night there. At the very least, the mound could shelter them from the cold wind at night.
But just as Li Mo settled down, the sound of hooves reached their ears.
Under the moonlight, it was Wang Zixuan's group of three.
With no cover here, Wang Zixuan saw Li Mo as well.
"Ha-ha … brother Li Mo, we really are fated!
I didn't know you came to the Plains of Death to train. How nice it would be if we could travel together! "
The three came before Li Mo and Zi Lingwei as Wang Zixuan spoke with a smile.
"Ha-ha … yeah, we really are fated.
We plan to spend the night here and enter tomorrow morning.
What's your plan? "
Li Mo responded with a faint smile.
"Ah!
Brother Li Mo, us three are of the same mind. We'll rest for the night and enter tomorrow morning.
But there seems to be no other place to spend the night besides yours. I wonder if it's convenient for you … "
Wang Zixuan glanced at Zi Lingwei behind Li Mo.
"Oh!
It's fine. This place is much more spacious than yesterday's straw hut. Even if ten more people came, it would still fit. Suit yourselves! "
"Ha-ha … sorry for the inconvenience!"
Wang Zixuan's group settled ten meters away from Li Mo!
"Li Mo, didn't you promise me during the day?
How could you forget so quickly? "
Zi Lingwei walked behind Li Mo and muttered in a low voice, full of dissatisfaction.
"There's nothing we can do about it!
Who knew they'd show up here!
Besides, this isn't our territory. If they want to stay here, can we just kick them out?
What's the difference between us and Liuli City's people? "
Li Mo was trembling with fear as he said this. He guarded his arms, afraid Zi Lingwei would make him feel that sour taste again!
"Good!
You're right.
You're right, but I, Zi Lingwei, am not one to go back on my word. Since you violated our agreement, you must be punished! "
Zi Lingwei's right hand moved to pinch Li Mo.
"Ah … Zi Lingwei!
Why aren't you playing by the rules! "
Another scream. Li Mo didn't think Zi Lingwei's target this time wasn't his arms, but his ribs.
"Brother Li Mo!
What's wrong?
Are you alright? "
Wang Zixuan's voice came from afar.
"I-it's nothing!
The bugs here are much bigger than yesterday's and they bite even harder. Rest!
After he finished speaking, he glared at Zi Lingwei. His teeth were itching with hatred.
"What?
Are you going to hit me again?
Humph … this is what happens when you violate our agreement.
There better not be a next time, or I won't be so lenient! "
Zi Lingwei gave Li Mo a proud look and walked to the resting area!
"This is lenient?
This tigress has been pretending to be gentle for two days and finally revealed her vicious side! "
