Chapter 248: Qian Renxue’s Worry
“So, what do you plan to do next?”
After calming down a bit, Qian Renxue asked.
She had said everything she could, and she was very worried about Ling Mo. For Ling Mo’s sake, she had hurriedly rushed over to find him.
She had even revealed Spirit Hall’s confidential information to Ling Mo.
“Are you worried about me?”
Ling Mo did not answer directly but instead smiled wickedly.
“Get lost, you’re hopeless! Is it strange for me to worry about you, you stinking man!”
Qian Renxue rolled her eyes at him, then walked to the Cold Jade Bed and sat down, lifting her skirt to tempt Ling Mo.
“Damn, that’s too much! Don’t you know I’ve been full of pent-up anger lately?”
Ling Mo couldn’t stand it at this sight; this was simply asking for trouble.
“Hehe! Let’s talk business. In a bit, big sister will let you enjoy yourself properly…”
Seeing Ling Mo pounce over, Qian Renxue pushed him away and pressed him down underneath.
She said seriously, she was really worried about Ling Mo. If he couldn’t withstand Spirit Hall’s next moves.
Possibly, she would have to intervene! Otherwise, no one could save Ling Mo’s life.
“Do you really want to know?”
They exchanged glances, and Ling Mo was still hesitating whether to tell her.
Qian Renxue didn’t speak but continued looking at him.
The implication was obvious; she really wanted to know.
Once Ghost Gate and Spirit Hall clashed, it would absolutely be a blow to her.
She had to know all the plans; otherwise, if either side suffered damage, she couldn’t bear it.
Ling Mo thought about it in the end. If he couldn’t even trust his own woman, he wouldn’t trust anyone in this lifetime.
Of course, Ling Mo could also tell that even if he told Qian Renxue, she wouldn’t interfere with his plan.
It was just that she might take matters into her own hands to protect the person she wanted to protect as much as possible.
This didn’t conflict; Ling Mo didn’t want to kill anyone and had no deep grudges with anyone.
Those with deep grudges were Tang San and Xiao Wu! This had nothing to do with him.
If they wanted revenge, they could go do it themselves; Ling Mo was too lazy to intervene.
What he truly needed to do wasn’t target individuals but Spirit Hall, or rather, all the sect forces across the entire Continent.
The world had been dividing and uniting for a long time, with contradictions impossible to resolve.
To truly settle down, unification was inevitable. Even if it couldn’t be achieved in the end, Ling Mo still had to do it.
So, in the truest sense, what Ling Mo wanted to destroy was Spirit Hall, not Bibi Dong or Qian Daoliu.
Of course… if they insisted on stopping him, there was no choice; Ling Mo would have to act.
But… considering Qian Renxue’s situation, Ling Mo still wouldn’t kill them.
As long as Spirit Hall was annihilated, they wouldn’t have any chance to make a comeback.
“Actually, it’s no harm telling you!”
After thinking everything through, Ling Mo stood up from the Cold Jade Bed and walked to the bedside.
Looking at the beautiful scenery at the foot of the mountain, he slowly said, “I had long foreseen that Spirit Hall would act against Ghost Gate.
Moreover, I determined that Spirit Hall will make a move during this Soul Master Competition.
Therefore… even before you came, I had already deployed a complete plan. For this sudden assault, I laid out a large net, just waiting for Spirit Hall to take the bait.”
As soon as Ling Mo finished speaking, Qian Renxue’s entire expression changed, and she looked at him in shock.
“You… guessed it long ago?”
She couldn’t figure out how Ling Mo had seen it. Spirit Hall had never directly clashed with Ghost Gate, nor was there any sign.
How did he determine that Spirit Hall would act during this Competition?
“What’s so difficult about that? These eyes of mine can discern loyalty and treachery, good and evil in the human world, past lives and present, past and future.
In this world, no thing can hide from my eyes. As long as I wish, I can see through what you’re thinking in your heart.”
Ling Mo said calmly. As soon as these words came out, Qian Renxue was completely stunned.
“You… can really see through my heart?”
She suddenly felt that in front of him, she had no secrets left.
How terrifying was this? If he weren’t her man but an opponent, what would happen?
“Hehe, you can think that way, but rest assured, I won’t pry into your secrets because you’re my wife…”
Ling Mo suddenly changed his expression; he hadn’t expected to actually fool Qian Renxue.
“Get lost, who likes you? Don’t think that sleeping with big sister once or twice means you own her!” Qian Renxue said angrily.
“But to be honest, I have no secrets to hide from you! What do I have to fear…”
Qian Renxue’s biggest secret was her identity as Xue Qinghe, but Ling Mo had long seen through it.
Therefore… she had no secrets to hide from Ling Mo and didn’t need to worry at all.
“What’s wrong, after taking advantage of this young master, you still want to run? Let me tell you, you can’t escape my grasp in this lifetime…”
Hearing this, Ling Mo was immediately displeased. He returned to the Cold Jade Bed and pinned her down.
Qian Renxue tried several times to push him away, but he held on tightly.
Amidst the flirtatious banter, the beautiful day passed just like that.
Until dusk, Qian Renxue pushed Ling Mo away and said softly, “These past few days, why haven’t I seen those Titled Douluo from Star Picking Tower?”
This was a question Qian Renxue had noticed from the start.
The several Titled Douluo who were originally at Star Picking Tower had disappeared somewhere!
“Them? I sent them out! Isn’t this preparing a gift for your Spirit Hall? How can it work without some sincerity…”
Those several Titled Douluo were the best gifts Ling Mo had prepared for Spirit Hall, except for Number Five by Zhu Zhuqing’s side.
The rest were handed over to Dugu Bo for arrangement. Before that, several hundred Soul Douluos, along with Heavenly Machine Pavilion disciples, had been heading to Spirit Hall one after another.
The purpose was simple: a spider needs to weave a web, and this web was prepared for Spirit Hall.
To further weaken Spirit Hall’s strength, then head to Spirit City. At that time… Ling Mo could make demands of Spirit Hall.
“So you were prepared from the start! If I’d known, I wouldn’t have worried unnecessarily. I thought you were in danger and rushed over to warn you…”
Qian Renxue suddenly realized her actions were a bit redundant.
But when she first learned about it, she was genuinely anxious.
Over this period, her heart had completely been tied to Ling Mo.
The legendary girl whose eyes were full of Ling Mo.
“Why would you think that? Even without these matters, couldn’t you come find me? This place is also your home…”
Embracing the beauty, Ling Mo comforted her.
Qian Renxue didn’t refute because… she had long regarded this as her second home. Whenever she had time, she would come here.
Not for anything else, but because there was a man here whom she constantly missed.
Why did she come every day? Of course, it wasn’t just to cultivate on the Cold Jade Bed.
More than that, she wanted to accompany Ling Mo, even if just to glance at him.
To fill the love missing in her heart for many years.
“I really wonder how I fell for a smooth-talking rogue like you back then!
Logically, with my temperament, shouldn’t I have slain you with one sword?
I barely recognize myself anymore. To think I held back from striking and even let you trick me into coming to Ghost Gate…”
Thinking about it made her want to laugh; Qian Renxue almost didn’t recognize herself.
