Chapter 616 Leisure Time
This place is not far from the city, so Luo Li can clearly see the layers of mountains in the distance, like an elegant ink painting, with occasional clouds and mist lingering in between, adding a bit of mystery and ethereality.
She sighed softly. This was the first time she had slept for such a long time since she came to the Continent of Ten Thousand Beasts.
Some time ago, I was in the wild and only slept for an hour for several days.
Although the body of the God King would not feel tired even if he stayed awake for a month, that was in a safe environment after all. Fighting was always unavoidable in the wild.
But even though she felt a little tired physically, she really couldn't sleep because she was worried about Yue Hanchuan and the others.
Now that there is a solution, she can feel more at ease.
Right here, her waist was hugged, Di Xuanming's voice was hoarse with just waking up, and his chin rubbed against her neck, "Why aren't you wearing shoes?"
Luo Li only felt that the familiar breath surrounded her instantly, warm and overbearing, like the unexpected warm sunshine in winter.
She slowly turned her head and met those eyes that were half-open but as deep as the night, hiding lingering sleepiness and unquestionable tenderness.
Di Xuanming's clothes were a little messy, and his hair fell casually in front of his forehead, adding a bit of unruly look to him.
He gently pulled her into his arms, let her sit on his lap, and put his arms around her waist, as if he wanted to merge her into his bones and blood.
She lowered her head and could see his chest rising and falling slightly, and felt his strong heartbeat resonating with her own.
Luo Li smiled and said, "You seemed to be sleeping soundly, so I didn't want to wake you up. Besides, I'm already a Nine-Star Divine King, so even if I stand in the snow in the far north without shoes, it won't be a problem."
Di Xuanming lowered his head, his warm breath brushing against her ear. "Well, so you should wear shoes next time."
As he spoke, his slender fingers gently stroked her exposed ankles and put on her shoes that were scattered beside the bed.
The delicacy and care made her heart warm, and all her fatigue seemed to disappear with this gentle movement.
Luo Li smiled and shook the shoes he had put on. "Is it okay now?"
Di Xuanming nodded seriously, "Yes."
Di Xuanming lowered his head, his fingertips inadvertently brushing across the ends of Luo Li's hair, lifting a strand of soft hair that slowly fell in the interweaving of light and shadow.
His eyes were deep and gentle, as if they could contain all the tenderness and pampering in the world.
Luo Li looked up and met his smiling eyes, and ripples began to appear in her heart.
She opened her red lips slightly, a hint of imperceptible coquettishness in her voice, "I'm almost twenty years old. I'm not a child. I can do it myself."
Upon hearing this, Di Xuanming's lips curled up into a doting smile. He slowly approached, their breaths mingling together, warm and sweet. "With me, you don't need to grow up. Just be your true self."
Luo Li chuckled and jumped down from Di Xuanming's arms, "Is this still Yaoguang City?"
Di Xuanming was a little confused, but still replied, "Yes, this is my residence in Yaoguang City, but I rarely come here. Counting carefully, this should be my third time."
When he was with her, Di Xuanming would always talk more, and even hoped that Luo Li knew everything about him, that would be the best.
Luo Li approached Di Xuanming and asked, "Then you haven't been to Yaoguang City very often, right?"
Di Xuanming nodded, "Indeed, I remember only four or five times."
Luo Li sat on the edge of the bed, holding her chin and said, "But aren't you and that Fuyu City Lord old acquaintances? Did you just leave after discussing things?"
Di Xuanming's voice always lost a bit of coldness when he addressed Luo Li, appearing to be answering questions very seriously. "Not really, because he usually comes to Jinglong Territory to find me. I don't have much to ask him for help, but he always has a lot of things to bother me with."
Luo Li chuckled and said, "It's really unkind of you to say that. I think the Lord of Fuyu City treats you very well."
Di Xuanming rubbed the top of Luo Li's head and said, "Tell the truth."
Luo Li patted her sleeves and stood up. "Okay. You've been to Yaoguang City a few times after all, so how about taking me for a tour?"
There was a hint of playfulness in Luo Li's words. When Di Xuanming heard it, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. That smile was like the first blooming peach blossoms in spring, gentle and imperceptible.
"Okay." He nodded slightly, and with a slight wave of his slender fingers, a faint layer of spiritual light enveloped the two of them. Then his figure flashed and he found himself on the bustling streets of Yaoguang City.
The streets are bustling with people, all kinds of shops are selling a dazzling array of goods, and colorful lights are hung high, reflecting the joyful faces.
Luo Li looked around excitedly, her eyes sparkling with curiosity and excitement.
"This is my first time to properly explore the main city of the Sword Snow Region. You'll pay for today's purchases!"
Di Xuanming said lovingly, "Okay."
Today seems to be some kind of festival in Yaoguang City. There are many more pedestrians on the streets than usual. This is also the most prosperous street in Yaoguang City, but at this moment there is a sense of crowding here.
Luo Li asked softly, "Are all the people in Yaoguang City here?"
"Let's go somewhere else." She walked forward and decided not to hang around here anymore.
Di Xuanming followed her slowly, occasionally raising his hand to block the crowd for her. His movements were natural and revealed an unquestionable sense of protection.
Luo Li was gently protected by Di Xuanming, and the two of them slowly walked through the bustling streets.
The sunlight shines through the gauze-like clouds and shines on the quaint stone road, creating a mottled and colorful scene. It complements the shops on both sides that are hung with colorful silks and lanterns, creating a dreamy and lively festival atmosphere.
Di Xuanming's big hand rested gently on Luo Li's shoulder. Whenever a hurried pedestrian almost bumped into her, he would calmly pull her aside.
Luo Li raised her head and looked at him, her eyes flashing with smile and gratitude. Their gazes met gently in the air, and without words, they understood each other's intentions.
It took about a quarter of an hour for the two of them to come out of the street they had just been on.
Neither of them used spiritual power, but instead tasted a different kind of flavor.
After walking out of the street, there were not many people in other places. Maybe the shops there were very popular, Luo Li thought.
She pointed to a clothing store ahead and said, "Let's go take a look here."
Di Xuanming had no objection and just held Luo Li's hand, "Okay."
Luo Li and Di Xuanming walked side by side into the luxurious-looking ready-to-wear clothing store, which was filled with the faint scent of incense and the uniquely smooth aroma of silk.
The store is elegantly decorated, with fabrics of various colors as colorful as a rainbow, hanging on racks and swaying gently.
Luo Li's eyes were filled with interest as she slowly moved through the cloth, her fingertips inadvertently sliding across the delicate textures.
