Yin Ming reached out and opened the study door, only to find that Ling Yao seemed to have been waiting outside for quite some time.
His hair was covered with fine morning dew, and his bangs were also wet with dew, sticking to his forehead in strands. But he did not look disheveled. Instead, he had a pitiful and beautiful appearance that made people feel sorry for him.
Hearing Yin Ming open the door, he immediately raised his eyes, which were even brighter under the dew, and looked at Yin Ming pitifully.
Yin Ming swallowed hard. Who in the family could understand? A beauty overload first thing in the morning, who could resist this?
Faced with Lingyao's condition, Yin Ming couldn't bring himself to say anything blaming. He could only helplessly step forward to wipe the water droplets from Lingyao's shoulders, then take out a clean handkerchief to wipe away the remaining water before sighing:
"You didn't stay here all night, did you? Didn't I tell you to go back to your room and get some rest last night?"
Even if you're healthy, you can't overdo it.
This guy even concealed his presence so that Yin Ming couldn't sense his existence. He's getting more and more capable.
Why are you pretending to be so pitiful? What are you trying to achieve? You've figured him out, so Yin Ming falls for this act, right?
It's both infuriating and hilarious.
"I made Yin Ming angry. I won't go anywhere until Yin Ming calms down." Ling Yao obediently lowered his head so that Yin Ming could wipe the stray hairs from his forehead. His tone was full of careful sincerity.
Yin Ming was taken aback. What? Why would he think it was his problem?
Shouldn't he blame Feng Yan for that one remark? After all… Yin Ming carefully recalled the scene at that time—
Yin Ming pushed Ling Yao away after hearing Feng Yan's words. It was such an obvious mistake, yet Ling Yao didn't hold a grudge against Feng Yan.
This feeling is exactly like the familiar innocent and naive A Yao. Waaah, my youth is back! I've finally brought his personality back to normal.
Wait a minute, something's not right.
Yin Ming carefully examined Ling Yao's expression again—he needed to observe carefully to see if there were any flaws, otherwise it would be difficult to determine whether he was faking it or not.
After all, this guy has a criminal record, so we need to keep a close eye on him.
Noticing that Yin Ming's gaze had been fixed on her face for a long time, Ling Yao looked up and blinked innocently, "What's wrong?"
Faced with such a stunningly beautiful face that strikes straight to the soul, Yin Ming admits that he gets infatuated after looking at it for a while. Whether Ling Yao is faking it or not... it doesn't really matter anymore.
Yin Ming coughed twice to ease the awkwardness, and weakly explained, "I...I'm not angry with you."
Lingyao pursed her lips, her eyes becoming even more innocent. "If Yin Ming wasn't angry with me, why was he sleeping alone in the study? Wasn't it because I held Yin Ming's hand in front of Young Master Feng that he got angry?"
Yin Ming clicked his tongue inwardly. Goodness, it turns out that the two of them are focused on completely different things and are not on the same wavelength at all.
As for Lingyao's question about why Yin Ming sleeps alone in the study, Yin Ming silently complained in his heart, "It's because if I said I was going to stay up all night translating my diary, you definitely wouldn't agree."
But can you really say something like that? Wouldn't saying it be like giving the other party a handle to use against you?
So Yin Ming reached out and ruffled Ling Yao's hair, hurriedly explaining, "I was just shy... Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. I didn't sleep very comfortably in the study, so I'm going back to my room to catch up on some sleep. Do you... want to come with me?"
"Then... Yin Ming isn't shy anymore?" Ling Yao reached out and grabbed Yin Ming's hand that was rubbing his head, his eyes suddenly brightening and the corners of his lips curving up slightly.
Yin Ming narrowed his eyes slightly, a sense of unease flashing through his mind. He felt that Ling Yao's smile was quite meaningful.
It turns out that men sometimes do have a sixth sense – sure enough, after the two returned to the room together, this guy didn't go to sleep.
Instead, he spent the whole morning practicing...
How to grow strawberries.
And how to grow beautiful strawberries.
Yin Ming: #\\u0026*%\\u0026……So annoying!
***
After a restless night's sleep, Yin Ming felt only backache and soreness; the sleep hadn't helped at all.
After refusing Ling Yao's request to go with him to find Elder Mo, Yin Ming told him to stay in the room and sleep peacefully before leaving alone.
He wondered if it was just his imagination, but the Divine Realm seemed different from usual today.
Wherever he went before, he could see disciples walking together in twos and threes. Although it wasn't exactly bustling with noise, it was still quite lively.
The world was so desolate that it seemed as if he was all alone. Not only was the surrounding area empty, but even the cries of birds and beasts, and the sound of the wind, seemed to have stopped.
As if he had anticipated his arrival, Yin Ming saw Elder Mo standing straight at the entrance of the palace, facing his direction, seemingly waiting for him on purpose.
A strange emotion suddenly welled up in Yin Ming's heart, but Elder Mo in front of him did not do anything strange, so he boldly stepped forward, stood three zhang away from him, and then bowed to him from a distance.
"Elder Mo, I have a question I would like to ask you."
It's all so strange, really so strange.
A voice seemed to be urging Yin Ming to turn back immediately, but he had already come all this way, and he was not about to give up until he found out where Mount No Return was.
Elder Mo smiled kindly as always and said calmly, "Go ahead and ask."
Yin Ming secretly breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this; after all, Elder Mo was still as friendly as before. The Divine Realm was deserted, but perhaps the disciples were just busy with other matters; he shouldn't scare himself unnecessarily.
Yin Ming quickly reassured himself, sorted out his thoughts, and then raised his voice:
"I have recently been searching for materials to forge my natal magic weapon, and I have happened to hear that there is a place on the continent of gods and demons called 'Mount No Return'."
"There are materials that I need on Mount No Return, but I have searched through all the books in the library and still can't find where Mount No Return is. Does Elder Mo know the exact location of Mount No Return?"
Before Yin Ming could finish speaking, Elder Mo suddenly widened his eyes, and what he said left Yin Ming completely bewildered.
A cold, mechanical voice rang mercilessly in Yin Ming's ears—
"Keyword 'Mount No Return' detected. Exit immersive experience mode."
