Chapter 74: Escaping Without A Trace
The two remained in a standoff like this, and the soldiers searching back and forth outside still hadn’t discovered them!
But the people who chased over said that the two of them had fled into Heaven Dou Royal Academy, the surroundings were already sealed off, and they couldn’t possibly leave.
Therefore… they set up a defense line outside, preparing to catch them in a trap.
In the bookshelf, Ling Mo activated his Dual Pupils and discovered that the soldiers around had begun to decrease, finally letting out a sigh of relief.
Under extreme nervous tension, he didn’t even realize how ambiguous their current position was.
“Can you back off a bit…”
Qian Renxue was utterly embarrassed; in all her life, this was the first time she had encountered such an awkward situation!
Such close contact, and with a strange man at that—no one could accept it.
Although Ling Mo was very handsome, his roguish aura completely overshadowed his good looks.
Not only did it fail to make anyone like him, it actually made people angrier the more they looked…
“No way! If I let go of you and you slash me with a knife, where would I even go to reason?”
I advise you to drop that idea! The people outside haven’t left yet; if any movement occurs, neither of us can escape…
Ling Mo directly rejected it; the space in the bookshelf was already so small, and backing off would directly expose them to view.
Anyway, he wasn’t losing out, so why should he back off.
Ling Mo exchanged glances with her and discovered a hint of evasion in Qian Renxue’s beautiful eyes.
She was truly very beautiful, and there was a unique fragrance on her body; Ling Mo was intoxicated by it and unconsciously felt aroused.
Their eyes met, and Ling Mo couldn’t help but kiss her.
Qian Renxue wanted to resist but couldn’t; any slight movement would definitely expose them.
“Hehe! In all my life, this is the first time I’ve seen a living angel—this is totally worth it…”
Ling Mo was thrilled inside; the more Qian Renxue resisted, the more excited he got!
Her beautiful hair draped over her shoulders, a continuous fragrance wafting over, and Ling Mo was intoxicated by it.
“Not here, what about over there?”
“Nothing! Looks like they hid in the dormitory building; let’s go check there…”
Several voices of commotion came from outside; after searching the teaching building for a long time to no avail, the soldiers headed toward the dormitory building.
The soldiers around began to slowly disperse! Ling Mo immediately realized something was wrong.
Sure enough, after the soldiers in the teaching building withdrew, Qian Renxue instantly lost her temper!
She suddenly exerted force, spun around, raised a palm, and wanted to smash Ling Mo to death right then and there.
But at the moment she gathered her strength, her body couldn’t keep up, her limbs went weak! She raised her hand but couldn’t bring it down.
“Hehe, can’t bear to strike?” Ling Mo immediately understood what was happening.
Since she couldn’t bear to make a move, it was time for Ling Mo to do so.
“What are you trying to do?” Qian Renxue panicked instantly; caught off guard earlier, her soul power hadn’t risen, and Ling Mo had subdued her in turn.
Now it was her turn to panic! Talk about karma turning.
“What am I trying to do? You’ll understand soon enough…”
[Omitted 58,000 words here!]
Ling Mo: “Actually, I didn’t do anything! Don’t overthink it…”
As dawn approached! After searching all night, the empire’s soldiers still hadn’t found the two and had no choice but to give up.
Since the imperial tomb hadn’t been robbed and the losses weren’t great, these people began to withdraw.
And Heaven Dou Royal Academy had been tossed around all night because of this, leaving all the students’ emotions extremely unstable.
When Ling Mo sneaked out of the library, he discovered that the students were starting to head to class one after another.
“Perfect opportunity! No time like the present…”
Seizing the moment, Ling Mo activated Peacock Wings and flew directly out of Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
After Ling Mo left, Qian Renxue stumbled out in disarray.
This night was definitely the most unforgettable one of her life.
Looking at Ling Mo’s departing back, she said resentfully: “You damn rogue, this matter won’t end like this—I’ll fight you to the death for the rest of my life…”
A hint of shame appeared on Qian Renxue’s icy face! Just thinking about last night made her unable to bear it.
Running into Ling Mo was absolutely the worst mistake she had ever made in her life.
The more she thought, the angrier she got, utterly humiliated and furious!
The dignified Spirit Hall Saintess had actually been done in by this little grave robber—what an utter humiliation.
It wasn’t that Qian Renxue couldn’t beat Ling Mo, but his martial soul was just too strange.
No matter how she attacked, he could devour it with those five colors of light, so she couldn’t land a hit on him at all.
Moreover… he had initially used the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, possessing the same soul skills as her.
Qian Renxue lingered in the library for a long time, unable to figure out Ling Mo’s origin at all!
Why had such a genius appeared on the continent without her knowing?
Even Spirit Hall’s exquisite intelligence network had no records of Ling Mo—it was too strange.
Actually, it was no wonder; it was just that the God Awakener Su Yuntao was too capable!
Right from the start, Ling Mo had been given a waste buff by him, so it was normal that Ling Mo’s information wasn’t on record.
“You stinking rogue! If I see you again, just you wait… I’ll repay today’s grudge a hundredfold someday… Hmph…”
Qian Renxue tried hard to calm her emotions and struggled out of the bookshelf! Every step was extremely difficult.
No choice, she directly activated her martial soul! Wings spread, and whoosh—she left Heaven Dou Royal Academy!
At this time, dozens of miles outside Heaven Dou City, Ling Mo looked back from afar, confirmed Qian Renxue wasn’t chasing, and then stayed in place to rest.
“Holy crap, what an exciting night! Gotta say, an angel is an angel—the feeling is just different…”
Ling Mo lay exhausted on the ground and began to regulate his breathing! Still muttering under his breath…
What did he do last night? Actually, he really didn’t do anything—believe me?
“Looks like I can’t come back to Heaven Dou City anymore! Even if I do, I can’t let her spot me, or it’ll be trouble…”
After resting a bit, Ling Mo pondered left and right, deciding to stay as far away from Qian Renxue as possible.
This girl had an extremely strong sense of revenge; last night’s events, she’d probably never let him off for the rest of her life.
Of course… Ling Mo didn’t regret it! Nothing to regret!
Ling Mo wished she’d cling to him for life.
That way, it meant he had a shot at inheriting Spirit Hall’s industry!
“Looks like Sword Douluo that old fellow’s ancestral grave is off-limits, and Heaven Dou Imperial Tomb is definitely out too.
After last night’s events, we’ve alerted them—going now would be suicide!
Seems like… I can only check elsewhere. Haotian Sect is done, Heaven Dou Empire is done!
Where to next? How about… checking out Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan?
Nah, too far! Round trip would take about a month—table that for now.”
Standing in place, Ling Mo muttered to himself; after thinking it over, he decided to go dig up Dugu Bo’s family ancestral grave.
Because his was the most recent and easiest to find.
Right in Sunset Forest!
Dugu Bo: “……？？？”
