Chapter 71: A Touch?
“Phew… this old fellow finally left! Good thing Ghost Lord was here, otherwise I really couldn’t handle this guy…”
After Chen Xin left, Ling Mo dejectedly sat on a stone in the gorge.
Heart still pounding with fear! Fortunately, last time in Jing Jue Ancient City he brought Ghost Lord back, otherwise this time he really would have flipped the car.
“Damn it, daring to scare me! Watch me dig up your family ancestor’s grave…”
The more he thought, the angrier he got. Ling Mo shouldered the shovel and once again set out on the journey to find Sword Douluo’s dad’s tomb.
This time, the search range was not just Suotuo City! He swept through several nearby big cities as well.
It took nearly half a month, and Ling Mo began entering Heaven Dou City’s territory.
This day… Heaven Dou City welcomed a disheveled man, shouldering a shovel with a menacing aura as he entered the city.
“This… is the legendary Imperial Capital, Heaven Dou City? Indeed much more prosperous…”
Ling Mo entered the city and scavenged around, packing up quite a bit of food! Then he began calculating how to take revenge.
However, he temporarily couldn’t find the address of Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School, so he headed straight for the easiest-to-find Heaven Dou Empire Imperial City.
“I’m already here! Might as well solve the cauldron problem. Heaven Dou Empire is after all a top empire, should not lack this kind of treasure, right?”
While thinking, Ling Mo bypassed the Imperial City and sneaked to the back mountain!
Late at night! In the silence, no one would pay attention. At three in the morning, who would dare to boldly try to rob the empire’s tomb.
The empire’s tombs are generally large. Every emperor has his own imperial mausoleum after death!
Therefore, the entire area behind is a royal forbidden zone!
The geographical area is roughly equivalent to two Suotuo Cities! Very large.
After sneaking in, Ling Mo discovered there wasn’t even a single guard inside! Except for the defense line at the entrance, there was basically no one staying inside.
One can imagine! Who would dare casually dig up a royal mausoleum? Tired of living?
By reason, that’s indeed the case! No one dares to pluck hair from the empire’s head.
Unfortunately, after Ling Mo arrived, this notion was completely shattered.
What a joke! Is there any grave under the sky he doesn’t dare to dig?
Taking advantage of the night, Ling Mo shouldered the shovel and entered the Imperial Tomb, heading straight to the central area.
Dual Pupils activated directly, searching a large area for treasures.
He discovered that these imperial mausoleums, more or less, each had treasures, but Ling Mo wasn’t sure if there were cauldrons among them!
Right now, he was just short of this one treasure; he didn’t want anything else.
“Hm? Who’s there?”
Just as he was about to start digging, Ling Mo suddenly spotted a figure flashing in the darkness, moving very fast.
He seemed to have been tracking Ling Mo all along! But earlier, Ling Mo had been too focused on the treasures in the Imperial Tomb and hadn’t noticed.
After being discovered by Ling Mo, that figure in the darkness walked out openly.
It was a youth! A very pretty man.
Why use “pretty” to describe him?
Ling Mo didn’t know why, but the first moment he saw him, this word popped into his mind.
“How did you discover me?” The youth walked over with a smile on his face! He didn’t seem angry at all that Ling Mo was robbing the Imperial Tomb.
“Never mind that!”
Ling Mo didn’t answer directly but walked up for a close look, discovering that this youth’s chest muscles were particularly prominent, looking more and more like a woman’s the longer he looked.
“Your pectorals, why are they so exaggerated?”
Ling Mo exclaimed, glanced at his own chest, then at his, finding that his pecs were indeed huge. Though tightly wrapped in clothes, the robust outline was still clearly visible.
“…”
The youth was stunned upon hearing this, not knowing how to respond to Ling Mo’s question.
“My god! Those must be boobs, right?”
Ling Mo unceremoniously gestured at the other’s chest; the size was almost catching up to Zhu Zhuqing’s.
Seeing Ling Mo being so rude, the youth’s face gradually turned cold!
“Shameless thief, daring to sneak into the Imperial Tomb—what crime is that?”
Trying to change the subject on purpose? Ling Mo noticed a flicker of evasion in the youth’s eyes, as if trying to steer the conversation elsewhere.
Unfortunately, Ling Mo wasn’t going to let him have his way.
“So big! Can I touch them?” Ling Mo said with a sly grin!
At these words, the youth actually blushed slightly, as if he had some secret he didn’t want Ling Mo to know.
“What? Not letting me? I get it—you’re definitely a girl. Nice! Disguising as a man to sneak into the Imperial Tomb, what are you up to?”
Seeing the other’s face change drastically, Ling Mo was thrilled inside! From the moment he appeared, Ling Mo had already guessed his identity.
After the precedent with Ning Rongrong, Ling Mo habitually activated Dual Pupils every time he met someone of unclear identity, stealing their Martial Soul.
The moment the Angel Martial Soul entered his body, the other’s identity was clear.
If Ling Mo wasn’t wrong, the one appearing in the Imperial Tomb yet presenting as a man could only be Qian Renxue, right?
Oh no, his current identity should be Heaven Dou Empire Crown Prince, Xue Qinghe!
“How could I possibly be a girl? I am the current Heaven Dou Empire Crown Prince, Xue Qinghe!”
Seeing that Ling Mo seemed to have discovered her identity, Qian Renxue immediately changed her expression and began denying it vehemently.
Her identity hidden in Heaven Dou Empire was extremely secretive! Not allowed to be known by anyone.
If Ling Mo exposed it now, all these years of hard work would be for nothing.
“A man? Crown Prince? I don’t buy it—unless you let me touch…”
Ling Mo had her pinned down; how could he let her off so easily? Sneaking into the Imperial Tomb is a capital offense. If he believed her, she would gain the upper hand next, and he would be the one suffering.
“You…”
Qian Renxue was furious. Where did this guy come from? So wild—having already guessed she was a girl, he still wanted to touch. Wasn’t that blatantly taking advantage?
“I can overlook your crime of sneaking into the Imperial Tomb. Please leave now…” Qian Renxue was pissed but originally wanted to teach Ling Mo a lesson. Fearing bigger trouble, she decided to drive him away.
Unfortunately, Ling Mo wasn’t buying it.
“No way! I’m not leaving today. If you want to fight, fight—but if you draw in those guards outside, your identity will be exposed!”
Ling Mo laughed. Today, he wasn’t leaving. Even if the king of heaven or his father came, they couldn’t stop him from grave robbery.
“My identity exposed? What do I have to expose? I am the current Crown Prince—ironclad fact…” Qian Renxue still tried to quibble, but Ling Mo was too hard to deal with!
“I don’t believe it! Unless you let me touch…”
No matter what she said, Ling Mo stuck to that one line. Qian Renxue was instantly furious!
She originally wanted to toy with him properly, but now it had turned into him toying with her.
“I’m telling you, don’t go too far!” Qian Renxue said coldly.
“If the current Heaven Dou Empire’s ruler knew that his dear son was actually a girl, what would his reaction be?” Ling Mo laughed, without directly exposing Qian Renxue’s identity.
He wasn’t afraid she would suddenly snap and kill him, because she didn’t have that ability!
Though Ling Mo might not necessarily beat her, she couldn’t kill him either.
“What nonsense are you spouting? I’m clearly a man—how could I turn into a girl?” Qian Renxue still refused to admit it.
“Don’t believe it? Let me touch…”
“You…”
Qian Renxue was about to cry, dying to slap Ling Mo dead but afraid of alerting the guards outside and exposing her identity.
Tickets! Anyone?
