Chapter 87 - You've Successfully Gotten My Attention

Hu Liena looked puzzled.

"They're all gone. Aren't we going to follow them?"

"Let the dust settle," Su Chen said calmly, then sat down to cultivate.

On the other side.

Ning Rongrong ran, choking back tears. "Zhuqing, you lied! You lied!"

Zhu Zhuqing was also embarrassed. She slowed down and lowered her voice. "Rongrong, I... I didn't lie to you. You misunderstood what I meant!"

Ning Rongrong sobbed, "Yesterday, you did the same thing to Xiao Wu. I was completely imitating your actions. And you still say you didn't lie?"

Xiao Wu nodded heavily from the side.

"Sigh!"

Zhu Zhuqing looked utterly exhausted and said:

"I did it that way yesterday, but what I meant was for you to understand and flirt with Su Chen as a girl."

"You need to understand the difference between flirting and provoking. The former is when you, as a girl, flirt with him, he won't be at a disadvantage and won't make a move against you."

"But your actions just now lacked some foreplay; that already constituted provocation. It's a wonder he didn't hit you."

Ning Rongrong heard this and sniffled, saying:

"Is that how it works?"

Xiao Wu nodded heavily again.

"Right!"

"What Zhu Zhuqing said is right. If you were flirting with him, he'd be the one getting the advantage. There'd be no reason for him to come down hard on you."

"But what you did today was completely provocative. You were definitely going to get beaten up..."

Zhu Zhuqing also nodded heavily.

"So, what's flirting?"

Listening to Ning Rongrong's words, Zhu Zhuqing pondered for a moment. She pulled Xiao Wu to a stop, and Ning Rongrong also stopped to watch them.

Zhu Zhuqing put one hand around Xiao Wu's waist, her face close to Xiao Wu's, and breathed warm air into her ear:

"Woman, you've successfully caught my attention."

Xiao Wu's face flushed instantly.

"Zhuqing, you're so annoying."

"Oh, oh!"

Ning Rongrong instantly understood: "So it's like that!"

"I get it."

"But, isn't this a bit too casual?"

"After all, I'm a girl. If I treat Su Chen like this, what will he think of me, and what will everyone else think of me?"

Zhu Zhuqing said with a helpless expression:

"Yeah!"

"Precisely because of that, I didn't do it. I didn't explicitly tell you to do it!"

Rongrong, oh Rongrong!

When you leave the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, you should understand that only through effort will you receive rewards. How can you gain anything if you're unwilling to give up anything?

You can't continue being a pampered little princess.

After that.

Zhu Zhuqing and the other two didn't say any more, speeding up their journey. They were already very close to the Star Dou Great Forest.

Their task was to help Oscar obtain his third spirit ring. Of course! With Zhao Wuji present, hunting a thousand-year-old spirit beast wasn't a significant problem.

Star Dou Great Forest.

As one of the three major wild soul beast habitats, this was naturally a place soul masters most hoped to visit, because every time they came here, it meant they were about to level up.

Of course, it was also a place where all soul masters had to be on high alert and extremely cautious, because every time they came here, it also meant they could end up on a soul beast's dinner table.

When you gaze into the abyss, the abyss also gazes into you.

Except.

Xiao Wu was an exception, because... she was home.

Xiao Wu: Don't panic, don't be afraid, the security team captain and deputy captain here are both my underlings!

Along the way.

Everyone maintained their formation, cautiously making their way forward.

Just as Dai Mubai prepared to attack the Rodent Weasels, Tang Buddha immediately stopped him.

As they continued forward, Dai Mubai asked softly, "Why are we going around? Those Rodent Weasels weren't strong. We could have just killed them."

Tang Buddha smiled slightly.

"They pose no threat to us, so why kill them? If all soul masters were like this, would there even be soul beasts left in this forest after many years?"

"Moreover, my teacher said that even when encountering low-level soul beasts in the wild soul beast forest, one must not be careless. Because once a battle breaks out with them, the smell of blood and the noise could very likely attract powerful soul beasts."

"We should still be careful."

Xiao Wu turned to look at Tang San, silently giving him a thumbs up in her heart.

Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong, however, rolled their eyes, inwardly complaining.

I mean, you're an assassin. When you killed Su Chen, I didn't see you hesitate, and now, with a bunch of small soul beasts, you say you hesitate, that you don't want to kill?

Dai Mubai, on the other hand, was full of admiration.

"Your teacher must be a very powerful elder. This is all valuable experience."

As soon as he said this, Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu, and Ning Rongrong almost burst out laughing.

Yu Xiaogang? Powerful?

Dai Mubai, you should apply for the Blind Douluo certification immediately!

Tang San also forced a bitter smile.

My teacher is so powerful; the first time he took me to hunt for a spirit ring, you wouldn't believe it... I almost died.

Cough! No laughing allowed.

Noon.

Zhao Wuji ordered everyone to rest.

Not long after.

Zhao Wuji suddenly shouted, "Get up, something is approaching at high speed!"

Tang San also noticed.

Everyone quickly stood up and formed a defensive formation, ready to strike. This was perfect for Oscar—the Phoenix-tailed Cockscomb Serpent.

It was also the same one that Meng Yiran and her grandfather had been chasing.

However.

When everyone attacked together, Ning Rongrong's Martial Soul was used, and Tang San, Dai Mubai, and Zhao Wuji on the scene were instantly stunned.

"What?"

"Ning Rongrong, you actually have two thousand-year soul rings?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. You weren't like this the last time you fought me and Xiao Wu!"

Zhao Wuji immediately shouted, "Forget about that for now, this Phoenix-tailed Cockscomb Serpent is perfect for Oscar, hurry up and attack."

The group all started to act.

Far away.

Su Chen raised an eyebrow, as expected! This Ning Rongrong was also one of the problematic ones, these little peeks of wrongness, one by one, were about to surface.

Thinking this, Su Chen reached out and pinched Hu Liena's waist, this was the biggest wrongness of them all!

Oh right.

Su Chen put on a surprised look and said,

"This Ning Rongrong is also starting with a thousand-year soul ring? Could it be that she also has a God Inheritance?"

Oh, wow.

Hu Liena and Dugu Yan's hearts trembled, not knowing how to respond.

Ye Lingling quietly looked at Su Chen. She was a gentle and thoughtful girl, and she also saw through Su Chen's exaggerated acting.

You, Su Chen, are also quite suspicious!

On the field.

Although the Shrek Seven Devils' cooperation was decent, the Phoenix-tailed Cockscomb Serpent was just too fast. Ultimately, Zhao Wuji had to step in to take it down.

"Success."

Oscar ran out, his face beaming with excitement.

Xiao Wu clutched her clothes tightly, her eyes filled with reluctance: "Do we really have to hunt a soul beast?"

Tang San sighed softly and said, "The law of the jungle is the rule of survival. If this snake were stronger than us, do you think it would let its prey go?"

ps.

Tang San: I let my guard down. I didn't put a label on this soul beast. Let me think… Phoenix-tailed Cockscomb Serpent, because your left foot approached first, you're already doomed! Phoenix-tailed Cockscomb Serpent: I don't even have feet!
