When Liu Yong saw the ugly expressions on the two men's faces, he lowered his voice and tried his best to provoke them.
"Don't you two want to get back what you lost? I think she has no other abilities besides magical weapons. She uses the same trick every time, which shows that she can't live without magical weapons. If someone controls her in the beast tide magical weapon, and then encountered a violent team of monsters."
Fatty Yue and Xu Meiren were a little moved, looked at each other, and simply sat down with Liu Yong to discuss via message.
"Zhuzhu and I really want to get the spirit stone back. We are victims of deception. Just like Brother Liu and his family, we were completely plotted by Zhong Lingge."
"Yes! She always stares at my senior brother. I hate her charming look. She doesn't know how to avoid suspicion at such a young age!"
Fatty Yue saw that Xu Zhuzhu was jealous again. Not only did he not dissuade her, but he actually enjoyed the feeling of driving up his worth.
Liu Yong was speechless for a while. Anyone who looked at Zhong Lingge looked like he was insulated from men. Besides, Fatty Yue's image and character were something that few normal people could appreciate.
However, in order to achieve cooperation, Liu Yong cleverly chimed in with a few words, and the three quickly reached a tacit understanding of forming a team.
In order to ensure that he would not suffer any loss, Liu Yong took the initiative to mention: "My family also has a brother who is in the late stage of Qi Refining. There are exactly four of us. What do my brother and sister-in-law think?"
Xu Zhuzhu responded: "As long as we can get rid of Zhong Lingge."

Zhong Lingge walked around boredly and found casual cultivators setting up stalls and trading in the open space next to them, so he followed them over to join in the fun.
While walking around, a message from the second senior brother rang in the sea of consciousness, saying that he was bored and walking outside the area, so he came to the door of the Qi Refining Period to see her.
Zhong Lingge walked to the exit of the regional formation and saw the second senior brother leaning against a tree leisurely, fanning himself to create a leisurely young man atmosphere.
"Second Senior Brother! How did you do in the competition?"
"You were lucky enough to get into the finals. What about you?"
"Hey, I got in by luck too."
"Congratulations, little junior sister. Seeing that you smile so innocently, could it be that you have made a new friend who likes to spread wealth?"
Hearing Feng Mingyuan's tactful teasing, Zhong Lingge smiled even more happily and told him everything about the windfall.
Feng Mingyuan was filled with pride when he heard this, and his eyes when he looked at his junior sister were even more loving, with the mentality of a loving father watching his little daughter grow up.
"Look, there are always people in this world who think that the pie falling from the sky is so easy to pick up, but they don't know that the pie is just a bait. Little junior sister, your deception skills are better than the others."
Zhong Lingge pretended to be serious and waved his hand.
"Hey, Second Senior Brother, what you said is wrong. I don't call it deception, but I use cruel reality to remove the confusion in their eyes and hearts, and give them a lively anti-fraud lesson to help them mature mentally and My state of mind has grown and my cultivation has stabilized. It’s fine if I don’t collect too many spiritual stones.”
Feng Mingyuan raised the corners of his lips, shook his fan, and nodded gently.
"Well, that's right. Our Ji Dao Sect's sect style is indeed excellent. We are willing to do good and have a heart for the world. This is clearly reflected in Master and us."
"Yes, if I didn't do one good deed every day, I wouldn't be able to sleep well at night! It's precisely because of my kindness that wealth keeps pouring into my storage bag, and I can't stop it!"
The two big fools chatted until the break was over before they separated. Zhong Lingge plunged into the formation of the Qi refining area, found Lan Siyue who was looking for her, and walked to the melee ring together.
"The end of the melee will be a battle of beasts. You defend carefully and I will be responsible for attacking." Lan Siyue walked around the field and heard a lot about Zhong Lingge's glorious deeds. It was funny but helpless.
Sometimes she envies Zhong Lingge, not because she has the True Monarch as her backer, but because she is fearless and relaxed in looking at life with a smile, which is a state of mind that she has never been able to learn.
In addition to envy, there is also irresistible kindness.
If anyone wants to destroy Zhong Lingge's state of mind, she is willing to draw her sword and protect him until the end.
"I know you don't like fighting. I have to practice sword practice after all, so just rest."
"Siyue, you are so kind!"
"What about me? I helped you too! I just never found a chance! You knocked someone down while you were doing some cheering in the ring! You can't blame me for not helping!"
Lin Xiaojiu liked to hear compliments the most, and fearing that she would be left behind, she quickly expressed her willingness to contribute.
Zhong Lingge smiled and sent a message to comfort: "There are many real people near the arena, and besides, it's just a few weak chickens, so I don't have to work hard myself. When the beast tide comes, there are plenty of opportunities for you to show off!"
She is so lucky to have such a good friend who loves fighting, she has no regrets in her life!
Walking to the melee arena, the two of them seemed quite out of place among a group of senior Qi-refining senior monks.
Sixty percent of the fifty people who entered the finals were casual cultivators, and the remaining fourty percent were disciples of Xuanyuan, Jiuxiao, and several well-known clans.
Everyone seemed to have a tacit understanding. The clan stood on the left and the casual cultivators stood on the right. There was almost no communication with each other. When they made eye contact, they only smiled awkwardly and quickly looked away.
Zhong Lingge seemed unaware and walked towards the Lin siblings in a carefree manner, standing right in the middle with Lan Siyue.
She was leaning on the casual cultivator's side, and Lan Siyue was leaning on the clan. The distance was actually not far away. From a distance, it looked like the two sides were connected.
"Congratulations to both fellow Taoists Lin."
"It's just a fluke. But Fellow Daoist Zhong and Fellow Daoist Lan are extraordinary. In fact, my brother and I are very satisfied to have entered the finals. Just now, several fellow Daoists invited us to explore together, and there were also several part-time workers who introduced the city to us. We have gained a lot.”
Lin Wu felt a little emotional. She and her brother had been struggling for many years, and had tried to find a job in the city to earn stable spiritual stones, but unfortunately they had not been able to do so. No matter where the shop is, they are more willing to accept casual cultivators nearby who are known for their combat prowess, as well as old people with few spiritual stones, to take them in for their retirement.
This time, she gained some limelight in the competition, and her and her brother's abilities were finally recognized.
Rewards are good, but breaking into the top ten is not easy. In contrast, a long life is a good opportunity for their siblings.
Lin Wu's voice was very calm, and he felt joy that was not hard to detect when he described his longing for the future.
This is the first time for many clan disciples to hear about these things. They only need to practice and do not need to consider livelihood issues. At least they do not have to worry about the most basic elixir and talismans. After hearing Lin Wu's expectations, some disciples' moods changed unconsciously.
Zhong Lingge and Lan Siyue had been listening to her story carefully, and they also felt a different kind of strong vitality.
When the melee began, there was no tension between the clan and the casual cultivators, and the mutual suspicion and hatred had disappeared. For the first time, there was an atmosphere of healthy competition.
In the mid-air stands not far away, the real people guarding the Xuanyuan Sect began to transmit messages. Looking at the small Qi Refining Stage Arena, they all felt that a new vitality that was different from the past was blooming.
