757 An Inexplicable Tenderness

Qiao Mu pinched his waist, but he didn't budge even when her fingers had started to hurt from the pinching. This rankled her so much that she also tickled his waist.

"Don't touch randomly." Mo Lian solemnly pulled her small hands to the front and raised them up, kissing them twice. "Qiaoqiao, this place, is where you stayed in the two years that you disappeared."

Qiao Mu was slightly startled, but she nodded immediately afterwards. She involuntarily hooked her arms around his neck and stared at him with her pitch-black eyes. "You? Aren't angry?"

"Angry about what?" Mo Lian was also startled by her question.

Qiao Mu bit her small lips gently. "I, I hid this from you. Will you blame me for not telling you earlier? About Paradise Planet?"

Mo Lian fixated on her with a gaze that was as gentle as water. "Why would I? Rather, I'm very happy right now, that Qiaoqiao can personally tell me such an important secret."

His soaking head nuzzled her face: "Qiaoqiao, I'm very happy that you trust me so much. And I, will certainly not betray your trust in me, even if I die…"

"Alright, alright, you don't need to make a vow." Qiao Mu covered his thin lips with her hand and rolled her eyes while saying, "Look how incredible my Paradise Planet is. Ordinary people simply can't sense the presence of this mystic domain at all."

Furthermore, she was very careful. She basically wouldn't enter or exit Paradise Planet in front of other people to avoid being targeted by people with ulterior motives.

After all, no one knew if there really were people with queer talents that could espy mystic domains assimilated within people's bodies, so it was best to be careful in all matters.

Besides, this mystic domain of hers wasn't any normal mystic domain. Later on, Mo Lian would know that this was an exotic Star Domain!

Mo Lian nodded while hugging her, and his expression relaxed a bit as he smiled, "Qiaoqiao, I can be more reassured in the future, knowing that you have such a life-saving mystic domain on hand."

"Mo Lian, the reason you couldn't sense my presence in the past, was actually…"

"I wasn't aware before, afraid that you would leave me again without a word. Now, I know." Mo Lian cupped her small, soft face and gave it a smooch. "In the future, I won't need to worry like this anymore."

Qiao Mu, on the other hand, pursed her small lips, grumbling, "You've already reached an agreement with the sapling straightaway."

Mo Lian let out a low chuckle, and a green vine poked out of his sleeve. "Do you see? You can't disappear now. If you flee into the paradise, then I just have to follow inside."

Qiao Mu's eyes suddenly turned round, and she turned to look at the little treant that was lying as stiff as a corpse: "Huh, you punk!"

It had actually already snapped off a branch to give Mo Lian a doppelgänger! Now, Mo Lian truly could just summon the sapling at any time. As long as the sapling didn't leave the Mo Kingdom capital, he could enter and exit Paradise Planet whenever he wanted.

"Qiuqiu, now that you've recovered a bit, hurry and dig that dirt clump out. Deal with it quickly!" Qiao Mu hastily commanded.

Seeing that its little master didn't blame it, Qiuqiu quickly jumped out and ran to the foot of the peach tree. It dug out the yellow dirt block that was hiding underground within minutes, pummeling it without room for objection.

Qiuqiu beat up that sacred earth so much that it whimpered while pitifully hugging its blocky head with two dirt arms.

"Qiuqiu! Qiuqiu!" Qiao Mu lifted Qiuqiu to the side before knocking its head irritably. "Why are you so violent!"

"Are you fine, Dirt Clump?" Qiao Mu expressionlessly stroked the dirt clump's blocky head.

Yet for some reason, the latter gave an inexplicable shudder…
