"En," Zi Yu Di nodded, feeling embarrassed.
"Wait for me!" Chen Mo slid down the cliff again. The ground of the underground river was very wet, and he was afraid of falling into it.
After cupping her hands twice, Zi Yu Di expressed that she was no longer thirsty.
"Thank you!" Zi Yu Di crossed her hands behind her back and said shyly.
[Ding! Favorability + 1. Obtained one favorability coin.]
"You don't have to be so polite with me," Chen Mo said, looking at the darkening sky outside the canyon. "This place seems pretty good. It's close to a water source, and I saw some fish and prawns in the underground river. There's no need to worry about food. For the next few days, we will have to stay here and wait for the storm to calm down before going out."
There was one thing Chen Mo did not say: as long as Zi Yu Di did not show up, the Great Tagore Desert would not be peaceful.
The so-called 'staying here' was nothing more than an excuse. It was all for the sake of getting better wool from Zi Yu Di.
"Ah… okay." Zi Yu Di looked at Chen Mo blankly and nodded.
… …
Seeing that the sky was completely dark, Chen Mo started a fire in the canyon. The fire was not big, and it was in the cave inside the canyon, making it hard to be seen from the outside.
With the cover of the night, the smoke wouldn't easily expose them.
Chen Mo spent a lot of effort catching two fish from the underground river. He roasted them on the fire using dried branches.
Outside the canyon, the roars of various magical beasts and the whistling wind echoed endlessly.
In the cave of the canyon, a man and a woman were alone in a room. Separated by the fire, the two sat facing each other. No one spoke, but their hearts were not calm.
"Zi!"
A spark shot out from the fire. Chen Mo was turning the roasted fish. Not long after, the aroma of the fish floated out. Chen Mo spoke first, "The fish is done. You eat first!"
Chen Mo passed the roasted fish to Zi Yu Di.
Zi Yu Di brushed her hair away from her face and added more firewood to the fire. "I'm not hungry yet. You eat first. You're injured!"
Chen Mo glanced at Zi Yu Di from the corner of his eyes. He picked up the uncooked fish and walked over with the cooked fish.
Soon after, he grabbed Zi Yu Di's jade-like hand and forcefully stuffed the grilled fish into her hand. "I said you don't need to be polite with me. Moreover, I have some. It's just that it hasn't been cooked yet."
Seeing how domineering Chen Mo was and feeling the warmth from his hand, Zi Yu Di's face instantly flushed red.
Then, she broke free from his grip without leaving a trace. She picked up the grilled fish and sat to the side, minding her own business. Then, she lowered her head and began to eat in small bites.
[Ding! Favorability + 3. Obtained 3 favorability coins. Triggered Hand Holding bonus. Obtained High Yellow Rank Flying Fighting Technique — Kun Peng Wings (Can be advanced)]
"Hmm?"
Chen Mo raised his eyebrows. This was the second time the Hand Holding bonus was triggered. He communicated with the system in his mind. "What is the Hand Holding bonus?"
[The Hand Holding bonus is one of the Intimacy bonuses. It includes Kissing bonus, Hugging bonus, etc. Triggering the Intimacy bonus will give you additional rewards.]
The system quickly explained.
Hearing this, Chen Mo's eyes involuntarily widened.
A bold thought appeared in his mind.
Of course, it was just a thought.
"System, can this Kun Peng Wings be advanced?"
Chen Mo couldn't help but feel a little excited.
In the original work, if one wanted to leave the ground and fly, only those who were Dou Ling and above could fly for a short period of time. When one's strength reached Dou Wang or Dou Huang, one could use the released Dou Qi to condense a pair of energy wings on their back. This allowed them to leave the ground and soar into the sky.
Other than this, if one wanted to enjoy flying, only those precious flying fighting techniques could do it.
[Host can check it out yourself.]
Chen Mo clicked to check it out.
Then, he found out that the so-called advanced was to spend favorability coins to level it up.
For example, the current Kun Peng Wings was High Yellow Rank.
Spending 10 favorability coins to level it up to Low Black Rank.
Chen Mo currently had 15 favorability coins and immediately chanted 'level up'.
In just an instant, the Kun Peng Wings had leveled up to Low Black Rank.
This flying fighting technique can be use by Chen Mo to save his life. On this point, Chen Mo naturally couldn't be stingy with the favorability coins.
"You… What's wrong with you?" Zi Yu Di asked doubtfully when she saw that Chen Mo didn't go over and was instead standing there in a daze.
"Nothing."
Chen Mo regained his senses and returned to the opposite side of Zi Yu Di and started to grill the fish.
While Chen Mo was seriously grilling the fish, Zi Yu Di ate the fish while secretly sizing up Chen Mo.
Her gaze landed on the young man's muscular and masculine body. The blush on her face that had yet to dissipate became even brighter.
After eating the grilled fish.
Zi Yu Di added more firewood to the fire and wanted to talk to Chen Mo. However, she found that he was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed as if he was cultivating.
"It's better not to disturb him…"
Zi Yu Di curled up her snake tail and her body. With both hands under her head, her beautiful eyes looked straight at Chen Mo's face through the firelight.
…
In the quiet cultivation, Chen Mo's mind sank into his body. When his cultivation reached the Dou Zhe level, he was able to see the Qi Condensation Whirlpool, allowing him to clearly see his own Qi Condensation Whirlpool.
Due to his cultivation method, his Qi Condensation Whirlpool and the Dou Qi in his body were both black and white like chaos.
After adjusting his Essence Qi to normal, Chen Mo took out the Kun Peng Wings and started cultivating.
Let's focus on cultivating the life-saving technique first.
A memory surged into Chen Mo's mind.
Suddenly, a shocking scene emerged.
It was a huge Kun Peng that was about ten thousand feet long. With a flap of its wings, it soared up to ninety thousand miles in the blink of an eye.
Chen Mo sucked in a breath of cold air.
But in the next moment, a huge pain came from Chen Mo's back. It was as if someone had implanted something in his back.
That kind of heart-piercing pain made Chen Mo howl in pain.
Seeing this scene, Zi Yu Di immediately stood up in panic. She came to Chen Mo's side and asked anxiously, "What's wrong? What's wrong? Did the wound split open?"
Looking at Chen Mo, who was sweating profusely with blue veins.
