He Yu and Yun Sui have conveyed everything that needs to be conveyed, so they naturally have to work on some matters related to the duel between them tomorrow. Although they have tried their best to control the spread of this matter, there are still many casual cultivators and cultivators nearby who have heard the news.
Members of small and medium-sized forces from all sides come here, and the battle for the top five in the ranking is not that easy to encounter.
When the restaurant owner learned about Lin Mo's identity and that Hu Ling, who was fifth on the list tonight, was coming to meet Lin Mo in the restaurant, he immediately agreed that no one else would disturb the conversation between the two at night.
The sweet-scented osmanthus falls when people are idle, and the spring mountain sky is quiet at night.
Compared to the time in Ice City, the environment and atmosphere of the Dream Dynasty seemed more humane. Lin Mo had already taken off his previous heavy fur clothes and was still wearing the same black outfit.
He was currently sitting at the window seat on the second floor of the restaurant, drinking the sweet-scented osmanthus wine in front of him and looking at the lights of thousands of houses outside, he couldn't help but feel a little sad.
Lin Mo seemed to have seized the opportunity of a hint of life at this time. The breath of life was always surrounding him. Usually he was either busy killing people, running away, or because of the task time limit of the system.
, to think about how to complete the task as quickly as possible and how to improve the task evaluation.
If it is calm and tranquil, then worries and illnesses will not enter, and evil spirits will not attack, so its virtues will be complete and its spirit will not be compromised.
Taking advantage of the system update during this period, maybe I can also enjoy this rare leisure time, take a sip of sake, with the fragrance of osmanthus on the upper palate, slightly sweet, and quite distinctive. For Lin Mo, who always drinks strong drinks, this is
It’s also a good experience.
What's rare is that Lin Mo didn't practice tonight, didn't make any calculations, or even thought about anything. He just looked at the passers-by outside the window and took a sip of sweet-scented osmanthus wine from time to time. His whole temperament became much softer and became more misty.
Not long after, thump, thump, thump footsteps sounded.
Lin Mo knew that the only one who came to meet him tonight was Hu Ling. Hu Ling, who had been vaguely regarded as a great enemy since his rebirth, had plotted against the Hu family, Jinyang City, and Tianmu Territory, but he had never
I have never seen Hu Ling, the Heavenly Sword who is also in his scheme.
After a while, a young man wearing a green shirt and carrying a sword on his back walked up the stairs. His appearance was not outstanding. He did not have Tang Yu's handsome face, nor did Peng Enyu's heroic and bold face.
He has an imposing manner, but everyone who sees him will not ignore him.
He is like a sword, a sword that has been hidden in the scabbard. It looks simple and unthreatening, but when the sword is taken out of the scabbard, it will shake the world.
When he saw Lin Mo, he was also slightly stunned. His iconic sword eyebrows furrowed slightly, and then he strode forward and nodded. Lin Mo also nodded slightly and stretched out his hand to indicate that he should sit opposite him.
Then he poured a glass of osmanthus wine and put the glass on the table in front of him. Hu Ling looked a little strange, but he still took the glass of wine and drank it all in one gulp. Unexpectedly, because he drank too quickly,
He choked, but he didn't care about his ugly appearance just now. Instead, he poured another glass of wine. He didn't drink this glass of wine in a hurry, but drank it slowly and in small sips.
Lin Mo was the first to say: "First time drinking?"
Hu Ling's voice was low and magnetic as he replied: "Yes, for the first time, my master told me from a young age that you should not drink alcohol when you first learn to sword, otherwise your hands will be unstable and your sword will not be fast. But when you can drink alcohol, you will find that there is no one left."
Can you accompany me to drink this first cup."
Lin Mo smiled and said: "Then I am very honored. This wine is osmanthus wine, which is the specialty of Beimengyu. Only when the osmanthus is in full bloom is the best time to brew this wine. After that,
At this time of year, you can’t drink it.”
After finishing speaking, Lin Mo raised his wine glass, lightly collided with Hu Ling's wine glass, and drank it all in one gulp.
Hu Ling still took a sip, and then said: "You are different from what I imagined, and it is also very different from what Tianji Mansion described."
For some reason, Lin Mo smiled extra free and easy tonight. He didn't have the usual aloof coldness in his body, and he said with a sense of sadness: "You are different from what I imagined, but so what, we are not going to fight tomorrow."
Last game."
Hu Ling said with a somewhat apologetic tone: "This battle must go on, otherwise I will be heartbroken, but we can make an agreement that the outcome will be determined by three moves."
Lin Mo looked at Hu Ling's firm eyes and said: "Okay, then three moves will determine the outcome. You don't have to feel sorry for forcing me to fight with you. Don't forget that although I didn't do it, the Hu family did.
Die because of me.”
Hu Ling shook his head and replied: "After I did a detailed investigation, I naturally knew that it was the Hu family who dealt with you in the beginning, and as a former member of the Hu family, I also know what kind of person Hu Hentian is. If you don't take the initiative to plot, I believe
You will be the one who dies then. People in the world say that you, Lin Mo, are too cruel and can destroy people and whole families at every turn.
But after I have done detailed research, I understand that basically every time you take action, it is because someone else provoked you first. The same is true for Jinyang City, Tianmu Domain, and even the previous 30th person on the list, the Great Diamond Sword Huang Yunsheng.
The last time Jianghu gives in, it will be regarded as weak. You are also a casual cultivator, so you naturally need a reputation. Even a bad reputation can ward off a lot of trouble."
Lin Mo looked at Hu Ling in surprise and said: "I didn't expect you to be my confidant, but there is nothing to hide about killing people. For self-protection, for profit, even if it is a last resort, I will kill. Since I walked into this
The roads and the bones beneath our feet cannot be washed away by just one or two reasons."
Hu Ling nodded, drank another glass of osmanthus wine, looked into the distance outside the window, and said with complicated emotions deep in his eyes, "Is she okay?"
Lin Mo was a little confused at first, but then he remembered the possible follow-up caused by the rumor that he analyzed for Li Xianxue. Unexpectedly, he hit the nail on the head. Hu Ling had always been unrequitedly in love with Li Xianxue.
He coughed twice and said: "Are you talking about Li Xianxue? She is very good. She has found an opportunity to break through her innateness, so she is looking for opportunities alone."
At this time, Hu Ling also felt that this question was a bit embarrassing. He looked like he wanted to explain but didn't know how to explain it. He could only forcefully drink another glass of wine and said: "Sorry, my question is a bit inappropriate."
Lin Mo looked at the young man in front of him who looked like he was trapped in the confusion of his first love, and couldn't help but smile and said: "Actually, Li Xianxue and I have nothing. She needs my identity as the young leader of the Taoist Palace, and I need her good reputation to offset it.
As a result of the previous massacre of the family and clan, coupled with the fact that our two forces are extremely close to each other, the rumors at that time were spread too far, so there was no official response."
