They All Deeply Regretted It After I Became Indifferent

chapter 23



That day, Lin Mo chose to stay in the inn.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to go out, but the system’s notification sounds were just too noisy.

[Ding, detected someone feeling regret because of the host, absorbed regret value 8.]

[Ding, detected someone feeling regret because of the host, absorbed regret value 16.]

……

Yes, that’s right.

Although the regret values obtained from each notification weren’t too high.

But, the frequency was alarmingly high.

Almost every few seconds, there would be one.

Until the night gradually fell, and the notifications of acquiring regret values became fewer and fewer.

Host: Lin Mo

Regret Value: 34160

From yesterday’s practice to now, the regret value has almost increased by thirty thousand.

Lin Mo didn’t need to guess; he knew something must have happened to the spiritual fields of Qingzhu Peak.

But what does that have to do with him, Lin Mo?

After a brief tidy up, Lin Mo, holding the Liuli Sword, stepped out the door.

Suddenly, the spirit of the Liuli Sword said, “Actually, I have a question for you…”

“What is it? Just ask!”

“Well, I can feel that you’re not quite the same as before…”

As a sword spirit, it naturally sensed a change in Lin Mo’s sword talent.

Initially, it could feel Lin Mo’s exceptional sword dao physique, which was why it could even converse with him.

But now, Lin Mo’s physique was not only inclined towards the sword, but his innate talent was fundamentally sword-oriented.

It was referring to the ‘Spirit Root’!

“Little Sword Spirit, have you ever heard this saying?” Lin Mo said with a smile.

“What saying…”

“When a person starts to take an interest in another, it means they’re already on the path to being conquered.”

The Liuli Sword spirit, obviously didn’t think it would be conquered by someone with such a terrible character.

It certainly wasn’t interested in this despicable man.

“Little Li isn’t human, after all…”

Lin Mo nearly stumbled to the ground, this time somewhat at a loss for words.

Stepping outside, several junior sisters were already waiting for him.

Upon seeing him, Xia He glared fiercely.

“Dilly-dallying, the sky has already darkened, and only now you come out!”

“It seems you’re in quite a hurry,” Lin Mo said with a light laugh. “Do you know what kind of place Jiang Yue Tower is?”

Here is the translation of the novel excerpt:

“I’m certainly aware, isn’t it where men like to drink and have fun, showcasing their talents?” Xia He’s face was full of expectation, and she also wanted to see this place.

Lin Mo looked at Xia He with a stupid expression, then looked at the other small sisters.

The rest of the sisters’ expressions were all hanging with expectation like Xia He’s.

It seemed that these few were genuinely unaware that “Jiang Yue Lou” was a springhouse.

He didn’t want to break the news, leading the few sisters dressed as men to the location of Jiang Yue Lou.

Jiang Yue Lou was built along the lake, with the entire building lit up with lanterns, making this place shine brightly from afar.

“Ah, there are so many people!” Qi Ru’s eyes widened as she looked at the crowds of people on the street, looking like a curious little treasure chest, gazing around.

Xia He noticed a problem.

“How can the women in the building be so unaware of themselves? When they see men, they just throw themselves at them!”

Lin Mo explained, “That’s called welcoming guests, do you understand?”

Xia He looked at the young man who had just entered, who casually pulled a girl wearing revealing clothing into his arms and gave her a pat on the buttocks.

The girl didn’t resist, instead looking embarrassed.

And such scenes were everywhere.

Xia He furrowed her brow, finally realizing that something was off, but she couldn’t quite put her finger on it, and could only follow Lin Mo into the building.

Just as they entered the door, the girls inside the building seemed to have seen something precious, one after another welcoming them.

“Wow, the young masters are really good-looking, all fresh faces, and they’re here for the talent show today?”

A girl wearing a red dress, shaking a fan, came to Xia He’s side and pressed her entire body against her.

“Uh… ” Xia He was taken aback, standing up straight, not knowing what to do.

She had never seen such enthusiastic women, let alone being treated like that by a girl.

Qi Ru, on the other hand, was completely the opposite.

She didn’t care about the food prepared in the building, and her appetite was astonishing, leaving the girls approaching her with their mouths agape.

And Xie Zhinan was holding his sister Xie Zhitong tightly behind him, his eyes like they were going to kill someone, scaring the approaching girls to stop in their tracks.

Lin Mo, on the other hand, was completely nonchalant, holding a girl in his arms with great ease.

He wasn’t a saint, and he had come to a springhouse, so why not indulge himself?

Xia He also noticed Lin Mo’s situation.

“How can you do this kind of thing?”

Lin Mo shrugged his shoulders: “What’s wrong with it?”

Xia He furrowed her brow: “Don’t you think it’s wrong to hold two unknown girls in your arms?”

“Who says they’re unknown?” Lin Mo smiled calmly: “The one on my left is Xiao Hua, and the one on my right is Xiao Yu.”

As he spoke, Lin Mo reached out and deliberately nuzzled into the embrace of the two people.

Xia He’s face turned crimson: “Lin Mo, as a cultivator, how can you be so indecent and shameless!”

Lin Mo replied nonchalantly: “What’s wrong with a cultivator following their true heart? Besides, this is a matter of mutual consent. What business is it of yours?”

He even specifically asked the two girls in his arms.

Both girls shyly expressed their ‘willingness’.

Lin Mo spread his hands: “You see, if you’re jealous, you can also get close to the girl next to you!”

The girl beside Xia He was also very perceptive.

“Young Master, if you wish to be intimate like that young master, I wouldn’t mind at all!”

Xia He’s face turned even redder, knowing full well that Lin Mo was aware of her identity and was blatantly mocking her.

She pushed the girl beside her away and turned to join Xie Zhi’an’s group.

In the entire Jiang Yue Tower, only these three seemed out of place,

Oh, no, there was also Qu Ruoyan, who was eating voraciously.

Suddenly, a middle-aged woman resembling a madam stepped onto the stage set up in the great hall of Jiang Yue Tower.

“Gentlemen, there is but a stick of incense’s time left before the talent show begins.”

“At that time, the talent show will be personally presided over by the host of the tower!”

The madam’s announcement sent the gentlemen into an uproar of excitement.

The sound was so immense, it almost felt deafening.

Lin Mo wondered what kind of woman could drive these men so wild.

It should be noted that a significant portion here were cultivators.

Even among them were those whose cultivation Lin Mo could not discern.

That is to say, their realms were certainly above the Golden Core stage.

A stick of incense’s time passed quickly.

The moment the host of Jiang Yue Tower appeared, the entire pavilion fell silent.

It was then that Lin Mo saw the true face of the host.

And finally understood why these men were so crazed.

Author’s note: I’m really down with the flu, can barely move, and feel terrible. I didn’t intend to leave you hanging, please understand!
