Li Yuan hesitated for a moment before reaching out to unbutton her clothing.
Her garments slid off, revealing snow-white and delicate skin.
Her legs were long and straight, her slender waist like a willow, her curves proudly perched without a single flaw.
Due to years of martial arts practice, her figure was tight with not an ounce of excess fat, yet there was still a sense of voluptuousness and tenderness.
She lifted her long leg and stepped into the bathtub.
Li Yuan squinted her eyes contentedly, the warm water quickly carrying away her fatigue.
Bathing in the same room as a man... In the past, this would have been a preposterous fantasy to her, but now it was actually happening.
Apart from feeling shy, she surprisingly didn’t have much aversion.
It seemed that ever since Chen Mo spanked her, everything had begun to develop in an unpredictable direction...
Chen Mo sat in the bathtub, his Divine Sense covering the surroundings.
After the breakthrough of the "Supreme Heart-Cleansing Mantra," his Soul Power had become more solid, and his perception range had improved, almost covering the entire street.
What surprised him was that Qiu Longgang was actually leading a patrol in the city.
"Mr. Qiu, do we really need to be so diligent? Wouldn’t it be fine to just go through the motions?" said a General nearby.
Qiu Longgang gave him a glare and said in a delicate voice, "You know nothing! I want to solve the case before him and slap his face hard!"
It’s all about fighting for a breath of air.
Initially, he came for the reward but ended up being provoked by Chen Mo.
He secretly competed in his heart, wanting to see how much weight this Hundred Households Chen who often solved big cases really carries!
Chen Mo’s spirit soared overhead, operating the "Supreme Heart-Cleansing Mantra," and the world seemed to turn into particles of various colors, the variegated auras entering his sight.
Common people are mostly pale white in color, Martial Artists are slightly more solid, and Qiu Longgang’s was light red, probably related to his awakened Martial Spirit.
At that moment, a faint glow flashed in the distance at the corner of the street.
It was fleeting, but Chen Mo’s keen senses still caught it.
His Divine Sense quickly followed, only to find that it was a dead-end, with no traces to be seen.
Li Yuan held the clear water, washing her body.
Chen Mo had been very quiet, which eased her anxious heart.
"Chen Mo, you can sleep on the bed later, I’ll just meditate next to you."
"By the way, how did you solve the case of the Demon Clan? You never told me about it."
"Hmph, forget it if you don’t want to talk..."
"Actually, when I first heard you were going to the Ding Fire Department, I was quite happy."
"Although you are somewhat frivolous and always like to take advantage of me, I still quite like... Like working on cases with you..."
Li Yuan’s voice grew softer as she spoke, her cheeks faintly heating up.
However, Chen Mo made no response from beginning to end.
"Chen Mo... Chen Mo?"
Li Yuan sensed something was wrong and reached out to pull the screen aside.
She saw Chen Mo sitting quietly in the bathtub, motionless, unresponsive to the noises outside.
"He’s still breathing, not pretending to be asleep, it’s like he’s soulless..."
"Could it be soul loss?!"
Li Yuan had heard of this illness.
Some people are physically normal but seem to fall into a deep slumber, losing all senses and awareness, possibly never being able to wake up!
Thinking of this, she became anxious; she didn’t care about the distinction between men and women, stepped out of the bathtub, and reached out to grab Chen Mo’s arm.
Her True Yuan flowed into his body, made a round check, and her heart sank.
Could it really be that his soul was damaged?
At this moment, all thoughts of the case were thrown behind her head, as Li Yuan only wanted to bring him back to Tiandu City immediately.
Chen Mo had the Qilin Token, maybe the seniors of the Qilin Pavilion would have a solution!
Li Yuan bent down, her arms passing under Chen Mo’s armpits, trying to lift him out of the bathtub.
That’s when Chen Mo slowly opened his eyes.
His view was filled with a blur of white, suffocating him for lack of air.
Chen Mo tapped on Li Yuan’s shoulder.
Li Yuan froze in her movements, slowly lowering her head.
Chen Mo: "Ugh ugh ugh!"
