Because of the martial arts conference, many martial arts monks from all over Yuhua Prefecture gathered at the gate of Tiandu City. They all hope that they can perform well in the conference and get good rankings to reach the sky.
The three of them, Li Mo, followed the flow of people into the city. It was indeed the largest city in Yiyang County. Although it was already very late, the spacious streets were still brightly lit and lively, with the sounds of hawking and bargaining coming and going.
Li Mo was afraid that this scene would arouse Liu Yan's desire to shop again, so he hurriedly held her hand to prevent her from jumping off the carriage.
Li Mo's worry was not unreasonable. Liu Yan didn't feel her hand being pulled by Li Mo at all, and her eyes were still looking at the dazzling array of products outside through the car window.
"Wow! It's so lively here. You must come out and take a walk when you have time."
"Eh? Why are you holding my hand?"
Li Mo was completely defeated by this nervous girl.
"It's okay! I just wanted to have sex!"
It was naturally impossible for Li Mo to tell her his worries, otherwise he would have to be tortured by Liu Yan.
"Haha... no, Xiao Xiao is still in front!"
Such ambiguous words came out of Liu Yan's mouth. Li Mo suddenly let go of his hand. He was afraid that he couldn't control it.
"Haha... With this little ability, I'm scared!"
Depend on! It turned out that this girl was deliberately teasing herself.
Li Mo's face turned red and he stopped talking.
…
The three of them chose an inn and stayed in it.
The conference is about to start in two days. Uncle Liu must have arrived in Tiandu City. How should we find him? The first thing Li Mo thought of was the inn, where the government received officials from all over the country. If Uncle Liu arrived in the capital city, he would probably stay there.
After paying attention, Li Mo eliminated all distracting thoughts and began to practice. It was still the familiar red space. The difference was that the clothes on Li Mo's chest emitted a dazzling light, and the sculptures of the Four Sacred Beasts on the bronze mirror in his arms began to rotate, as if they were alive! However, this scene only existed for a little longer than last time. Then he disappeared again!
Li Mo still knew nothing about it.
…
"Li Mo! Come out quickly!"
Liu Yan's voice woke Li Mo up from his practice. The figure appeared on the bed, and when he saw the dazzling sunlight outside the window shining directly into his room, he realized why Liu Yan came to him.
"It seems that this girl finally can't hold it in any longer!"
Li Mo shook his head and sighed, then opened his door.
But what surprised him was that Bai Xiao was also beside Liu Yan.
"Brother Li, let's go take a look on the street quickly. Registration for the conference has begun, and there are many strong people outside!"
"Yeah, let's go quickly. It's very lively outside!"
Before Li Mo could agree, the two of them, as if they had agreed upon it, grabbed Li Mo's arm and pulled him out.
Just as Bai Xiao and Liu Yan said, the spacious street was already occupied by martial arts monks who came to sign up, and it was bustling with people.
Li Mo was not a person who liked excitement, but he did not want to dampen the interest of Liu Yan and Bai Xiao, so he followed them helplessly to prevent any danger.
At the registration office of this conference, several powerful warrior-level experts are testing the applicants one by one. Not all applicants will have the opportunity to participate in the conference, and their strength must be above the warrior level. The age must not be more than twenty-five years old, and a registration fee of one thousand taels must be paid. This made many applicants who came here to be disappointed, and the number of people who passed the test was less than one-tenth of the applicants.
"It seems that this conference is specially set up for those princes and nobles. Let's go back!"
"Yes, the registration fee is only a thousand taels. Where can I get so much silver taels?"
…
From time to time, some applicants choose to withdraw directly after seeing these harsh conditions.
"Li Mo, come here quickly!"
Liu Yan waved to Li Mo and shouted loudly.
However, when he came to Liu Yan's side, Liu Yan had already handed a thousand-tael silver note to the registration officer, and then pointed it at Li Mo.
"It's him, he wants to sign up!"
Li Mo had no intention of attending any conference, but he didn't expect that Liu Yan's girl would sign up for him behind his back. But it doesn’t matter, gaining knowledge is also good.
The registration officer used a spar, but when he waved it in front of Li Mo, the white spar immediately turned red! He said lazily: "Passed the strength test! Go to the back to get your playing number, and go to the martial arts arena in the city to start the game tomorrow morning!"
"It seems that this is a treasure that can be used to evaluate the level!"
Li Mo is still quite interested in this crystal stone. After being pulled away by Liu Yan, his eyes had not left the magical crystal stone.
Finally getting out of the crowd, Li Mo breathed a sigh of relief. Liu Yan handed a number plate with ninety-eight written on it to Li Mo.
"Li Mo, it's up to you this time. I, Liu Yan, must be the most outstanding man in the entire Xuangu Continent! Don't let me down!"
"You really don't care much about the excitement. If anything happens to me at the conference, I wonder who will want you!"
"Li Mo, how dare you say that to me? Could it be that I, Liu Yan, can't marry anyone but you? Are you looking for a fight?"
As she spoke, Liu Yan clenched her small pink fist and hit Li Mo's strong chest.
It feels like flirting between young lovers.
Even Bai Xiao beside him couldn't help laughing.
…
"Okay, Yan'er, we should go to the local inn now to see if Uncle Liu is there so we can say hello."
Li Mo stopped teasing Liu Yan and spoke to her seriously.
"Great, I miss my father so much, let's go now!"
Liu Yan naturally agreed after hearing this. He had been out for so many days and still hadn't sent a message home. I still don’t know how worried my father is about them!
The local inn is easy to find. Just ask a local and you will know where the inn is.
"Li Mo, my father is indeed here. Look, he is a soldier from our house."
The three of them came to the door of the inn. Liu Yan pointed at the soldiers guarding the door and said to Li Mo.
Li Mo really didn't pay attention to the soldiers' clothing in Fanyang County, but Liu Yan shouldn't be mistaken.
"Brother, please ask Mr. Liu Changhe, the governor of Fanyang County, if you can rest in the inn!"
Li Mo politely stepped forward to ask.
"Who are you? What do you want from my master?"
The soldier immediately looked at the young man in front of him warily. He always felt familiar, but he just couldn't remember where he had seen him before.
"Brother, please inform me that Li Mo and Liu Yan want to see you!"
"Li Mo? Liu Yan? Ah!... Wait a moment, you two. I'll report it to you sir!"
The soldier was a little panicked when he heard these two names. Isn't this Liu Yan the Lord's daughter? And isn't Li Mo the young man who defeated powerful enemies by himself? I had heard that the two of them were traveling together, but I didn't expect to meet them here. He hurriedly ran into the inn.
In a moment, a burst of hearty laughter came out in the inn!
"Haha... are they Xiao Mo and Yan'er? You two kids really want me to die!"
Liu Changhe walked out of the inn in high spirits.
