Chapter 31: Ju Douluo's Scheme
After an hour, Li Xuan felt the Burning Heart Divine Flame's effect was nearly over, and only then returned to the outside of the wooden hut where Lin Mo was, since he didn't want to soil his ears.
He arrived at Lin Mo's house, crouched carefully outside the window, and listened closely to the sounds inside.
Just as Li Xuan held his breath and focused, he heard a snoring sound in the room that was like a saw cutting wood, which gave Li Xuan a start; I must say, the room's soundproofing is truly good.
Hearing the snore inside, Li Xuan relaxed, then carefully pushed open the window, leapt like a spirit cat, and silently jumped into the room.
After entering the room, Li Xuan looked around and quickly found Lin Mo.
At this moment the two were lying on the bed, and the floor was a mess.
Li Xuan finally managed to find a clean spot to settle.
Then Li Xuan took a leaf of Dark Realm Ghost Orchid from the Void Pearl, then summoned the Burning Heart Divine Flame, and the fire instantly turned the leaf into a strand of pale cyan powder.
Li Xuan waved his hand, and soul power pushed the powder onto Lin Mo.
As for the other woman in the room, Li Xuan directly released a strand of soul power that struck the woman's nape; it made no sound, caused no pain, and the woman immediately fainted.
Li Xuan found a chair and stood on it; there was no choice, he was too short and seemed to have no intimidation.
Standing on the chair, Li Xuan tightened his throat and, with a commanding voice, said a sentence to Lin Mo.
"Lin Mo! Won't you wake up quickly?"
Li Xuan spoke in a rough voice, his tone full of authority.
Hearing Li Xuan's voice, Lin Mo groggily opened his eyes and, as soon as he did, saw a vague figure before him.
As his vision returned to normal, he realized the person in front of him looked like a green‑faced, fang‑toothed demon.
That terrified Lin Mo, who rolled over and scrambled up from the bed.
"You… who are you? I… I am a distant grandson under Ju Douluo's crown; if you kill me… you… you will be hunted by Ju Douluo!" Lin Mo shrank back, terrified, and asked Li Xuan.
"What does Ju Douluo matter? From the azure heavens to the yellow springs, he is just a Title Douluo; what threat does he pose to me!" Li Xuan raised his hand, his voice raging as he spoke to Lin Mo.
"Senior, spare me! Senior, spare me!" Lin Mo, after hearing Li Xuan's words, was terrified to the bone; although he didn't understand what Li Xuan said, he could tell the spirit before him was unafraid of Ju Douluo, so he knelt on the bed and couldn't stop kowtowing to Li Xuan.
"Now I ask you, why are you here! If your answer satisfies me, I will spare your life," Li Xuan continued, authoritatively asking Lin Mo.
"I, a youngster, came here to extract that little bastard Li Xuan's secret," Lin Mo said, kneeling on the bed, his voice trembling.
At this point Lin Mo was so terrified his liver and gallbladder felt torn, his brain had crashed, and he answered whatever Li Xuan asked.
"Hmm? What secret?" Li Xuan asked Lin Mo again.
"Ju Douluo's crown said that Li Xuan should have a method to accelerate plant cultivation success; I need to find a way to extract this method, then Ju Douluo's crown can make me the overseer of the four major districts in the Flower Sea! Then the thousands of Flower Slaves will all be under my control! The Flower Sea will be my realm!" Lin Mo said, a bit mad, having lost fear of the illusion before him, with a crazy look. "Me? Is this the power of Dark Realm Ghost Orchid?" Li Xuan was stunned, then looked at Lin Mo with a puzzled expression and muttered a sentence.
"Then, if Li Xuan loses the secret, how will he handle it?" Li Xuan asked Lin Mo loudly.
"As long as I extract this method, Li Xuan will be worthless, and then I can kill him! I will impose all my punishments on him! How could he, at such a young age, possess this ability? I'm so angry! Why isn't I the one with this ability!" Lin Mo said, grinding his teeth to the end, and when he lifted his head his eyes were blood‑red as he stared at Li Xuan.
"Damn! Lin Mo's mind is so narrow. Don't worry, once I dig a passage out of here, I'll definitely make you become… a flower fertilizer!" Li Xuan snorted coldly, his gaze icy as he looked at Lin Mo.
Li Xuan recalled that after he had transmigrated, his mind hadn't fully adjusted, so he had done many foolish things.
He had even exposed part of his ability!
Then Li Xuan reflected on himself, realizing he needed to be more steady in the future; lacking a 99% certainty is no different from courting death.
My petty cultivation still needs further improvement! But now is not the time for Li Xuan to reflect; he must first deal with the matter! "How long did Ju Douluo give you to complete this task?" Li Xuan asked Lin Mo again.
Now Lin Mo had gone mad, so Li Xuan's questioning became bolder.
"One year. Within a year, if Li Xuan fails to cultivate the Strange Fungus Sky‑Piercing Chrysanthemum, I can use other means to force Li Xuan, and then I will subject him to the cruelest punishment in the world!" Lin Mo, with a dazed gaze, knelt on the bed, his energy exhausted, answered weakly.
Li Xuan looked at Lin Mo, considered what else he wanted to ask, and concluded he already knew everything he needed, so he waved his hand, a strand of soul power struck Lin Mo's nape, and Lin Mo fainted.
Seeing the two people on the bed unconscious, Li Xuan also let out a sigh of relief, then carefully left Lin Mo's room and returned to his own room.
Lying on his own bed, Li Xuan began to think.
His ability had been exposed, but not completely; only his breeding ability was revealed, so his danger level was much lower than if it were fully exposed.
If his small green bottle's ability were fully exposed, it wouldn't be Lin Mo who came, but Ju Douluo himself would act.
Li Xuan thought this and felt a wave of dread; it seemed that in the future he must be cautious, cautious, and more cautious before doing anything.
But for his own safety, he must be even more careful when using the small green bottle in the future.
"But Ju Douluo gave me plenty of time, a year; digging a tunnel in that time is still easy," Li Xuan rubbed his bare chin and muttered to himself.
"And this year is enough for me to wipe out all the rare plants in the second district's Flower Sea," Li Xuan smiled faintly, then showed a satisfied expression.
However, Li Xuan is not at a time to relax; Ju Douluo's last sudden attack almost blew his big secret out, so Li Xuan must quickly dig the tunnel!
Just in case!
Thank you, dear readers, for your support; tomorrow is the weekend, wish you all happiness and joy every day.
