When Chu Liuyue brought Dugu Mobao back to the inn, it was already nighttime. For convenience’s sake and to hide from others, the two of them booked the same room.

Chu Liuyue originally wanted to let him use the bed, but Dugu Mobao directly rejected her. According to him, with his Holy Body formed, it wouldn’t pose a problem even if he didn’t sleep or eat for months.

Therefore, at night, Chu Liuyue took the big bed while Dugu Mobao stayed on a small couch at the side.

The two of them were peaceful all the while before. But the moment Dugu Mobao came back today, he directly flew to the couch and sat down cross-legged. Then, his face turned cold as he stared straight at Chu Liuyue.

After Chu Liuyue closed the door, she turned around and saw a purple ball of meat exuding coldness.

"Ahem!" Chu Liuyue guiltily averted her gaze and inched toward the side, wanting to skip the incident directly.

However, Dugu Mobao didn’t let her have her wish.

"When do you plan to use this identity until?" asked Dugu Mobao coldly.

Chu Liuyue rubbed her temples and smiled at him awkwardly. "Look, Big Baby, I have no other choice! If not, god knows how long we’ll still be stuck here! Besides, I’ve never personally admitted that we’re mother and son—"

Meeting Dugu Mobao’s gaze that suddenly turned cold, Chu Liuyue immediately stopped and changed the topic. "…Don’t worry. When we reach that place and make everyone know about our identities, the truth will naturally come out!"

Actually, she had never really taken the initiative to admit that she was Big Baby’s mother, nor did she say that she was looking for Big Baby’s father. She just put her words in another way, which caused them to connect the dots and misunderstand.

"Okay. Big Baby, don’t be angry, please? Hm?" Chu Liuyue clasped her hands together and smiled brightly.

When he saw her appearance, the anger in Big Baby’s heart quickly subsided. He then turned around. "Never again."

"I knew you were the best, Big Baby!" Chu Liuyue couldn’t help but rush over and wanted to rub his chubby face.

Dugu Mobao seemed to have sensed it as he turned around to glance at her.

Chu Liuyue’s hand was inches away from him when she stopped her actions.

The two of them fell silent.

Chu Liuyue was determined as she rapidly squeezed his cheek and pulled a huge smile on his face. "Why do you have a straight face all the time? It’s so much better if you smile!"

Then, Chu Liuyue hurriedly picked up her last bit of survival instincts and returned at an even higher speed. "I’ll cultivate now!"

The moment she said this, she sat down cross-legged, and a red fire rose in her palm!

Dugu Mobao dazedly watched on as he instinctively reached out to touch the place she had just squeezed. It seemed like it still had the hint of warmth her fingers left behind.

His demonically beautiful purple eyes had a flash of dark color. Even though her physical body has changed, her personality hasn’t changed. She Is probably

Dugu Mobao stared at her for quite a while as the nonchalance and coldness in his eyes gradually disappeared. The next moment, his gaze turned, and he looked at the mirror by the side.

The copper mirror reflected a strange yet familiar face.

His gaze flashed. This face is that of a child, but it was indeed me once.

He stared at the person in the mirror for a while. The small person in the mirror also stared at him.

His expression was icy, his eyes cold with a faint hint of suppression.

It seems like… I am indeed quite upset. A thought popped up in his heart as he tried to curl his lips up.

It was a little stiff; it was very unfamiliar.

Dugu Mobao felt very awkward, and he was suddenly angry again. I don’t look good smiling like this at all! It’s so different from the bright smile on her face! She told me to smile more just now, but who would like such a smile?

He tightly pressed his lips against each other. He was about to retract his gaze, but he couldn’t help but look over after some hesitation.

After struggling internally for a while, he finally pulled at his lips and changed his smile. This was different from the previous one; it was a pity that he looked weirder.

Dugu Mobao held back his urge to smash the mirror as he hesitated about whether he should try again. Then, he suddenly heard some sounds behind.

He panicked. He hurriedly lifted up his blankets, snuggled in, turned over, and pretended to sleep.

Chu Liuyue opened her eyes and saw this scene. She couldn’t help but ask strangely, "Big Baby, what’s wrong?"

Dugu Mobao’s voice sounded upsettingly from the blankets. "I’m going to sleep. Don’t disturb me!"

Chu Liuyue acknowledged him.

Seeing that small bump on the couch, Chu Liuyue finally couldn’t help but softly remind, "Um… Didn’t you say that the Holy Body isn’t scared of heat or coldness, so… you don’t need a blanket even if you sleep?"

Dugu Mobao’s side instantly fell into a dead silence!

After a long while, he stiffly removed his blanket! His purple hair was ruffled until it was very messy, and his ears were still flushed red.

He ferociously said, "It seems like you’re not planning on sleeping. That’s nice. I’ll properly train with you today!"

The next morning, the morning sunlight poured in.

The duo sat opposite each other with a chessboard outlined by silver lines in the middle. The red light spots were Chu Liuyue’s ‘pieces,’ and the purple ones were Dugu Mobao’s.

It was an intense battle. Oh no—one should say that the red pieces were badly killed by the purple ones.

Dugu Mobao whipped his small hand, and a purple light spot landed!

Rumble!

The purple light glowed and covered the entire chessboard! It instantly killed all the red pieces in the blink of an eye!

When all the light faded away, Dugu Mobao looked at Chu Liuyue. "The results of the 372nd round: I’ve won."

Chu Liuyue held the chair handle and breathed in deeply. Her forehead was covered in sweat, and she had exhausted her force.

She couldn’t help but grumble, "Y-you win every time! Why do you still count it so clearly?!"

"I naturally want to let you know how weak you are today," said Dugu Mobao. "However, your improvement is very obvious. In this round, you made 23 steps. It’s much better than when we first started."

"Thank you for the compliment, but it’s okay." The corner of Chu Liuyue’s lips twitched. It would be better if he didn’t compliment me at all! 23 steps… I have never lost so badly to someone before!

She massaged her aching neck as she couldn’t help but glance at Dugu Mobao. "Speaking of which… Big Baby, I didn’t expect you to be a Xuan Master. What level are you now?"

Previously, I only knew that Dugu Mobao’s combat skills were very strong. However, I didn’t know that his Xuan Master cultivation level was also so high! At the very least, he’s the best I’ve seen in my life!

Dugu Mobao said swiftly, "You just need to know that I’m better than you."

Chu Liuyue was speechless. "Let’s go. It’s time for us to get to the Lin Residence."

Then, she stood up.

At this moment, a commotion could suddenly be heard from outside.. Then, the door was harshly kicked open! "Dugu Yue—get out!"
