With moist eyes gazing at him, her look was mystified, as her rosy lips softly parted, her breath fragrant as orchids: "Mr. Chen, it’s strange, I have no strength left..."
Chen Mo found his mind sowhat adrift at this mont.
Lin Jingzhu’s icy skin and jade-like bones, even through her Martial Robe, gave off a chilled, smooth, and delicate sensation.
In contrast to the intense Qi Blood Power, it felt like hugging a large ice cube in the midst of sumr...
This was rely the surface; what would a snowy ice city be like?
Ahem, misguided thoughts.
Chen Mo reluctantly gathered his focus, forcing out the Chill Toxin from his Heart ridian, simultaneously dispersing part of the cold energy.
Judging by this thod, every future detox will require such operations...
"Lin Catcher, it’s done."
"Hmm?"
Lin Jingzhu nestled in Chen Mo’s embrace, her legs subconsciously clenching tighter. Upon hearing this, she felt an inexplicable sense of loss.
"The Chill Toxin has only temporarily receded. I’ll be heading to Tiannan State for a few days; during this ti, it’s best not to engage in battles with others to prevent worsening... I left a thread of Vitality Essence within you, which will protect your Heart ridian at critical monts."
"Thank you, darling, you’re so nice~"
Lin Jingzhu smiled brightly, gazing at him with deep affection.
Looking at her charming and naive manner, Chen Mo’s gaze paused on her crimson lips for a mont, throat feeling sowhat dry.
Suddenly, Her Majesty the Empress’s resentful gaze appeared in his mind, like a basin of cold water splashed down, instantly clearing his thoughts.
He definitely did not want to beco like Eunuch Jin!
The two stood up, operating True Yuan to evaporate moisture, and left the Cultivation Room.
Passing through the Martial Arts Practice Square, they headed towards the Heavenly Martial Arena’s gates. Along the way, Lin Jingzhu lowered her eyes, strained brows, slightly nodding her small head, shyly not daring to raise her head.
Just a mont ago in the room it seed fine, but in hindsight, she wished she could find a crack in the ground to burrow into.
The lingering tingle in front made her feel a bit lightheaded even while walking.
Upon exiting the Heavenly Martial Arena’s gates, Lin Jingzhu halted, hesitated briefly, and whispered, "Mr. Chen..."
"Hmm?"
"Safe travels, I’ll, I’ll wait for you to return!"
Having said that, she turned and mounted her horse, departing as if fleeing.
["Lin Jingzhu" Favorability Rating increased.]
[Current progress: 65/100 (Affectionate Connection).]
A hint ssage flashed before Chen Mo’s eyes, and he secretly shook his head.
Squeezing a little thunder raised Favorability Rating by 10 points; is this the worth of a master strategist...?
Her Majesty the Empress, your humble servant really didn’t do it on purpose!

Imperial Music Bureau, The Cloudwater Hall.
Ye Henshui sat at the table, palm supporting her chin, watching Gu Manzhi who was busy at her craftsmanship, brow furrowed, "Are you sure this will work? Won’t the master discover this?"
Gu Manzhi folded a paper puppet in the shape of a puppy, dipped her fingers in a nearby bowl, writing and drawing on it, while saying, "The master’s locator beacon can identify aura, if placed on soone else, it will ultimately be exposed, so it can only be replaced with Paper Puppets..."
After finishing the talisman, a flash of brilliance passed through her brow, and she tossed the paper puppet to the ground.
As the paper puppet hit the ground, a turquoise mist rose instantly, followed by an erging black and white puppy appearing out of thin air, shaking its head and wagging its tail, staggering as if drunken.
Once the puppy got completely accustod to its body, it suddenly beca lively, jumping and running around the room, barking "Woof woof woof" incessantly.
"So cute..."
Ye Henshui’s eyes glowed, unable to resist reaching out to pet.
However, she glimpsed at Gu Manzhi and decided against it.
Gu Manzhi snapped her fingers, the puppy obediently returned to her side. She took out the sachet containing the locator beacon and tied it around the puppy’s neck, also adding a reinforcing magic.
"This ti there should be no issues, since it’s a proxy for Chen Mo, from now on you will be called Heitu."
"Woof woof!"
The puppy expressed satisfaction with the na, excitedly spinning in place.
At this mont, Ye Henshui thought of sothing, questioned, "If to mimic soone else’s aura, one must use that person’s Essence Blood to draw the talisman, but you didn’t use blood earlier, looked more like glue..."
"..."
Gu Manzhi’s face blushed slightly, shot her a glance, "None of your business!"
Ye Henshui: ?
