Li Mo took the map and put the two maps together.

Wang Yuyan exclaimed in surprise, "They really are the same!"

Bai Axiu frowned: "How come there are two identical treasure maps all of a sudden?!"

Normally, leaving behind a treasure map would involve drawing only one map, or, for secrecy, dividing the map into several parts.

Why would someone make several identical treasure maps?

Li Mo asked, "Miss Bai, when you obtained the treasure map, did you hear any useful information?"

Bai Axiu pondered, "Those who are fighting over it seem to say that this is a treasure map left behind by Yan Nantian."

Yan Nantian's treasure map?

Wasn't this thing made by Jiang Biehe, the "Great Hero of Jiangnan"?

In the original storyline, Jiang Biehe created this thing simply to incite the major powers to kill each other so that he could reap the benefits.

In the world of martial arts, there are even more experts and more powerful forces. Even if some forces suffer heavy losses because of this treasure map, it's not Jiang Biehe's place to reap the benefits.

He doesn't have that ability!

You could call Jiang Biehe a bad person, but he's definitely not stupid.

He couldn't possibly miss such an obvious flaw.

Or is it that Jiang Biehe didn't create this treasure map?

Unable to understand the reason, Li Mo returned a treasure map to Bai Axiu, saying, "Keep it for now, but don't get carried away. The sudden appearance of two identical treasure maps is most likely a conspiracy."

Although he knew that there were indeed treasures in Mount Emei, he didn't say so.

Bai Axiu put away the map and said, "My grandmother and I have no intention of searching for treasure. Whether it's real or fake, treasure maps appearing in the martial arts world are extremely dangerous, and it's definitely not something our Snow Mountain Sect can get involved in."

Li Mo exclaimed, "Miss Bai and Granny Shi are far more rational than many people in the martial arts world. Even if this map truly is Yan Nantian's treasure, how many forces could possibly afford to possess it?"

A blush rose slightly on Bai Axiu's fair skin: "Brother, you flatter me."

After saying that, he returned to his small boat.

After sailing for a while, they were about to disembark.

Suddenly, a pale hand gripped the gunwale, and Youcao jumped in fright: "Miss, there's a water ghost!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a disheveled figure tumbled onto the boat.

Above the figure's head were three entries: [Witch B], [Intelligent and Clever A], and [Celestial Beauty A].

It's someone I know.

If it weren't someone he knew well, Li Mo would never allow them to sleep with him.

The man's face was slightly pale, and he was barely breathing.

"Take me...take me with you..."

Before he could finish speaking, he fainted.

Youcao stepped forward to check and said, "Young Master, he's dead!"

"She's not dead." Li Mo squatted down in front of the person and felt the temperature around him drop several degrees. He reached out and pressed his hand on her shoulder, feeling as if he were pressing on a block of ice. "Such chilling internal energy."

He immediately helped the girl up, placed his palms on her back, and channeled his inner energy into her.

Wang Yuyan frowned: "Li Lang, her injuries are extremely serious. Can you save her?"

"Give it a try."

Li Mo focused his mind, mobilizing the essence of heaven and earth, and transformed it into pure yang power before transferring it to the girl. Unexpectedly, the girl's body was filled with icy power, as if it were connected to his life.

As the yang energy surged, the girl coughed up blood.

With a thought, Li Mo quickly transformed his true energy into yin coldness, and instantly, his true energy flowed freely.

"What a peculiar, chilling power, actually intertwined with the life of the injured." Li Mo secretly praised, "If I only had pure Yang true energy, it would be really difficult to dissolve this true energy. Fortunately, I can easily convert Yin and Yang true energy, so it's not difficult for me."

The cold, yin energy circulated within the girl's body, returning with a strange energy that entered Li Mo's dantian. This strange energy was then refined by the yin-yang energy into a pure and yin-yang energy.

Li Mo kept 30% of it and returned 70% of it, secretly transforming it into the essence of a young girl for later use.

With the help of the ultimate Yin and Yang Qi, Li Mo was able to borrow a considerable amount of power from heaven and earth. Soon, the cold Yin Qi in the girl's body was completely transformed, and her complexion regained its rosy hue.

Seeing the true qi trapped in his dantian, Li Mo was overjoyed. Even with his exceptional talent, it would probably take him several months to accumulate such a large amount of true qi.

This isn't an injured person; it's clearly a miracle cure.

However, although the girl's injuries had healed, her true energy had been transformed into essence by Li Mo and was hidden within her body, so she was not completely healed. He suppressed his thoughts and used the Hunyuan Gong method to activate the girl's essence and begin the process of refining essence into qi.

The power of extreme yin and yang is extraordinary. It would take an ordinary person a long time to refine so much essence into true qi. With the help of the power of heaven and earth, Li Mo transformed all the essence that he had hidden in the girl into true qi in the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.

Even her clothes were completely steamed dry.

Youcao was shocked: "Young master is amazing! I could tell he was dead when I checked, but he recovered so quickly."

Wang Yuyan, who had been worried, snapped out of her reverie upon hearing this and asked, "Does Li Lang feel unwell?"

"I feel refreshed and invigorated."

"Brother, can you tell which martial arts technique caused this 'sister's' injuries?" Bai Axiu asked.

While Bai Axiu and Shi Xiaocui were healing, they did not leave, but instead kept watch nearby.

Seeing that Li Mo had finished his work, Bai Axiu finally spoke up to ask him a question.

Li Mo feigned ignorance: "There are countless cold and yin martial arts in the world, how could you tell? Let's wait until she wakes up before we talk about it."

Bai Axiu: "Brother is right, I was too impatient."

"Young lady, now that you're awake, why don't you answer my questions?" Li Mo suddenly looked at the girl lying on the boat and said this.

The girl opened her eyes, looked Li Mo up and down, and blurted out, "You're that painter?!"

Although the hair color was different, her appearance left a deep impression on her, and it even appeared in her dreams often.

"That's right." Li Mo nodded. "It's quite a coincidence, this is the second time I've met you, young lady."

The girl exclaimed in surprise, "You knew I was disguised as a boy the first time we met?"

Li Mo nodded.

The girl remained silent: "...You want to know who hurt me?"

"It's not that I necessarily need to know," Li Mo waved his hand, "I'm just a little interested."

The young woman sat up, cupped her hands in greeting, and said, "I am Yin Susu of the Heavenly Eagle Sect. Thank you for saving my life, young master. This story begins when my father sent my brother and me out to search for treasure..."

As she said this, a hint of sadness flashed in her eyes.

"In the Jingxiang region, there is a treasure legend that has been passed down for hundreds of years, known as the Liancheng Treasure. It is said that hundreds of years ago, before the king of a small country was destroyed, he hid all the gold and silver treasures he had collected in a certain place. My brother and I set out for this purpose. Two days ago, we heard rumors that a treasure map had appeared in the world, so we prepared to go and join the fun, hoping to find clues to the Liancheng Treasure. After a fierce battle, we obtained a treasure map."

"However, before we could celebrate for long, we encountered a man in black. This man was incredibly strong, far beyond our capabilities, and defeated us in just a few moves. The Sky Eagle Sect disciples suffered heavy casualties. Despite my brother's desperate attempts to stop me, I was still struck by a finger and fell into the lake, where I met you."

Li Mo's heart skipped a beat. He took out a treasure map from his pocket and said, "Is this the treasure map?"

Yin Susu was shocked: "How come you have one too?"

"This picture might be the one that you and Lady Yin managed to snatch before." Li Mo recounted their previous experience. "Axiu, take out your picture and show it to Lady Yin as well."
