The Legendary Master’s Wife - Chap 76

Chapter 76: Looting Ice Sculptures

“Ling-shixiong?” You XiaoMo called Ling Xiao. He felt that Ling Xiao was a little strange today.

Ling Xiao coughed, “It’s not that there is no way, it was just that my way would probably damage the magic herb inside, so we have to find another way. When I came in just now, I discovered that the construction of this ice cave was very unusual. It didn’t seem like it was man-made by hatchets and chisels. Instead it felt as if it was formed by spiritual energy. ”

You XiaoMo took a deep breath. There really was a very strong spiritual energy there. This was really awesome , since it was so unexpected that such a magical place existed in WuShuang mountain. If it was really formed by spiritual energy, then all the ice sculptures in this ice cave may be made of super concentrated spiritual water.

“Ling-shixiong, if these ice sculptures are really made from spiritual energy, then how can we take out the magic herb?” You XiaoMo’s face filled with hope. It was not as if he didn’t have magic herbs, but those were level one, two and three. Level four and above, he didn’t have a single stalk.

That was why he was excited when he saw the magic herb inside the ice sculpture , because he already saw it in Kong Wen’s courtyard , so although he didn’t know what level it was, it must definitely be level four and above.

“You can try using your soul force , ” Ling Xiao suggested gently while looking at him.

You XiaoMo immediately closed his eyes and did as he said, releasing his soul force and slowly covering the ice sculpture. Then a shocking scene happened. When You XiaoMo’s soul force touched the ice sculpture, the naked eye could see that the ice sculpture melted quickly. Seeing this, You XiaoMo immediately put forth more soul force. The original ice sculpture that was half the size of a person immediately melted to form a pool of spiritual liquid with shocking spiritual energy. The magic herb that was enclosed in the spiritual liquid shook lightly, with leaves as fresh as jade, with no signs of damage.

You XiaoMo immediately took out a small spade from his magic bag. With light hands and feet, he dug out the magic herb along with the dirt around its roots.

This stalk of magic herb was in a very good shape and it was obvious even to the naked eye that the roots, stems and leaves were bursting with spiritual energy, so much that it was even better than the magic herbs watered with spiritual water in You XiaoMo’s dimension. Maybe it was because it had been growing all along in a place full of spiritual liquid, so it was always bathed in the perfect environment, unlike the magic herbs in his dimension, only watered three or four times.

After admiring it endlessly, You XiaoMo transferred it into his dimension by thought.

“Ling-shixiong, which do you think is better? This spiritual liquid or the spiritual water in the dimension?” You XiaoMo used his hand to scoop up a handful of spiritual liquid, feeling as if the concentration of the spiritual liquid was higher than that of the spiritual water.

Ling Xiao had moved elsewhere to check things out when You XiaoMo was digging out the magic herb. Hearing his words, he didn’t even hesitate before replying, “Of course spiritual water is better.”

“Why?” You XiaoMo turned around and asked.

“This ice cave was formed because there are a lot of contraptions underground. Those contraptions mutually act on each other to form this inconceivable phenomenon. But the spiritual liquid in here only absorbed the spiritual energy from WuShuang mountain and was formed by compression. If we consider the purity, it couldn’t compare to the spiritual water in your dimension. But … ”

Ling Xiao didn’t even turn back, landing a kick on a sculpture of a beautiful figure. His foot landed squarely on the face of the beautiful ice sculpture. You XiaoMo turned to look and couldn’t stop from pouting, continuing from his words, “But what?”

“But this spiritual liquid is not useless. You can store it and use it as leverage.” Ling Xiao turned around, a sinister aura was suddenly apparent in his smile. You XiaoMo saw this and felt his spirit waver , wondering if he was mistaken.

“Are you saying to give away the spiritual liquid?” You XiaoMo said in surprise.

“That ’ s right, spiritual liquid to the mages of LongXiang continent is a very rare treasure. It can be used to grow magic herbs, and it can also be used like how you use the spiritual water to replenish the soul force. That’s right … ” Ling Xiao suddenly turned around, his profound eyes shining as he looked at You XiaoMo, “Didn’t you say that you were going to auction off the magic pills? This spiritual liquid can also be auctioned off.”

“Really?” You XiaoMo’s shrewd eyes suddenly lit up.

“Of course not.” Ling Xiao felt the itch in his heart. Why did he not find this pair of eyes so lively before? Because of that, on a whim, he automatically teased him again.

You XiaoMo’s beaming face immediately fell. Bloody hell, actually deceiving him at this time. Did he have to be that mean?!

When Ling Xiao saw the look of resentment on his face, he immediately recovered. He cleared his throat and laughed, “Just kidding. Of course it is real. This spiritual liquid would probably fetch a much higher price than your Breatharian magic pill. Alright, hurry up and take all the ice sculptures. We have to rush back before the patrol arrives.”

You XiaoMo glared at him saying, “There aren’t many barrels left in the dimension. Probably not enough to hold the spiritual liquid.”

Ling Xiao thought it over and came up with a way, “First, don’t melt the ice sculptures. Try to see if you can cut them out using your soul force. If you can, move them in chunks. This will be more efficient and much faster than melting them into spiritual liquid.”

You XiaoMo thought that his way was not bad so he started to do as he suggested.

Since the soul force could melt the ice sculptures, cutting them was not a difficult thing. A controlled soul force in the form of a thin beam cut across the bottom of the ice sculpture. Soon the ice sculpture separated from the floor and was moved into the dimension by You XiaoMo. A smooth glossy surface like a mirror remained on the cut surface of the floor.

Finding this method very effective, You XiaoMo energetically threw himself into it. Because Ling Xiao had nothing to do, he helped out by looking to see which ice sculptures had magic herbs or other good stuff hidden in it and then told You XiaoMo to have him cut it.

With both of them working together, their speed was pretty fast. In a hour, they cut away one twentieth of the ice sculptures in the ice cave. You XiaoMo was the first to stop because his soul force was about to be depleted.

“Let’s stop here for today. We’ll find another time to come again later. You have already harvested quite a lot, which is enough to use for now.” Ling Xiao walked to his side and put his arm under his armpit, hauling the weak You XiaoMo up from the floor.

You XiaoMo nodded. Although he wanted more, the harvest this time was quite a lot. Other than the ice sculptures in the dimension that were now piled up like a small hill, there were also over ten stalks of magic herbs. But because he didn’t recognize magic herbs of level four and above, they were also piled up together for now.

When the two of them left the ice cave, the sky was already dark.

The back of the mountain was shaded by dense trees that covered the mountain. When the sky got dark, it became even harder to see anything. It was so bleak and dreary that the cold wind could penetrate the bones. Occasionally the roar of wild beasts could be heard. You XiaoMo couldn’t help rub bing both his arms. His legs were weak and if not for Ling Xiao holding him at his waist, he would have ended up sitting on the ground a long time ago.

“I’ll give you a piggyback ride.” Ling Xiao said in a low voice next to his ear. The hot breath covered his ear making it both numb and ticklish. You XiaoMo’s whole ear turned red from his breath.

He couldn’t help rub bing it, “Can’t you use some other way?”

Ling Xiao’s lips curved up, his smile carried a hint of mockery. He hung one of his arm over his shoulder saying, “Xiao Shidi. Are you telling me that you prefer the princess hold?”

“Then , piggyback it is.” You XiaoMo said immediately. Princess hold? He was not a woman.

“Then get on.” Ling Xiao turned his back to him. He bent down slightly , revealing the strong powerful contours of his back, slender with perfect proportions, with a feel of perfect tension. Even his back was so perfect, no wonder so many women attacked him with such starry-eyed infatuation. Comparing oneself to him would only make one die of frustration.

You XiaoMo hesitated a little before climbing on his back huffing and puffing. He looped both his arms tightly around his neck. Close contact between men was nothing strange, so in order not to fall off, he also didn’t act awkwardly bashful.

Feeling the warm body climbing up his back, Ling Xiao revealed a crafty smile of success. When he straightened up his body, both his hands firmly grasped the the two perfectly round and elastic round orbs of You XiaoMo’s butt. In the morning he already felt that You XiaoMo’s butt was very elastic. It felt very soft when he was sitting on his thigh s , causing the lust in his eyes to almost come rushing out.

Feeling his butt being grasped by two hands, You XiaoMo stiffened. Letting a man rub his butt was a little awkward. Although the other party was doing it for his own good, he still felt a little awkward inside.

There was no helping it , You XiaoMo immediately said in his heart. We are both men. It was no big deal. It would be over in a bit.

Soon he felt himself soaring. The cold wind was whistling past on both sides of him. Since Ling Xiao’s body was shielding him, You XiaoMo didn’t feel the least bit cold. Instead he felt that the warmth from his body was making him feel especially nice . If it were possible, he didn’t want to leave.

Ling Xiao’s speed was very fast. Fifteen minutes later, they were out of the back of the mountain, reaching the small path that they were on during the day. From far, they could see the lamps of the Central Lineage. Making use of the cover of moonlight, Ling Xiao dodged past the guards patrolling outside to the wing of the house. Luckily the guards had just started patrolling , so they hadn’t reached them. Also the room still had the barrier he set up before so no one discovered that were not in the room for almost two hours.

After entering the room, Ling Xiao put You XiaoMo down, “Stay in the room. I’ll be back in a bit.”

He turned and left.

You XiaoMo immediately asked, “Where are you going?”

“I’ll tell you when I get back.” Ling Xiao left right after saying that. Leaving the room, he reinforced the barrier before flying quickly into the dim of the night.
