Zhang Yue looked blank, "No, weren't you trying to make me angry? How come you got angry yourself?"
Not wanting to seem petty, Chen Zijin assumed Zhang Yue was joking with her, so she calmed down and said helplessly, "Alright, you win. This thing on you really can't show its best effect."
Zhang Yue sighed softly.
Then he took off the Wrath Source Stone and handed it to Chen Zijin, saying, "How about I put it on you to try?"
Seeing Zhang Yue hand the Source Stone over, Chen Zijin's heart immediately began to race.
She thought, 'He just confessed. Now he's giving me a Mythical-grade treasure right away.'
'Is he really going to give me all the best things? Zhang Yue, you're so good to me!'
"But this is a Mythical-grade treasure," Chen Zijin didn't like the thing itself that much; what she cared about most was Zhang Yue's attitude, "Are you really going to give this to me?"
Zhang Yue only glanced at the Wrath Source Stone and said, "Mm, only on someone it suits can it show its best effect. Try it on, if it fits, it's yours."
Faced with such a priceless treasure, most people would first think of selling it for money even if they couldn't use it themselves.
But Zhang Yue's idea was to give it to her.
Chen Zijin was suddenly moved.
She accepted the Wrath Source Stone.
"Thank you, Zhang Yue!"
After saying that, Chen Zijin suddenly stood on tiptoe and pecked Zhang Yue's cheek like a little chick.
Zhang Yue was stunned.
Just as he was about to say something, he saw Chen Zijin's face flush like the evening sky.
She hurriedly turned away.
A moment later she looked back at Zhang Yue.
"This is my first kiss, you… you must cherish it, okay!"
Saying that, Chen Zijin put on the Wrath Source Stone Zhang Yue had given her, and without giving Zhang Yue a chance to explain, charged straight into the nearby monster group and began slaughtering Black Angels.
Only then did Zhang Yue realize.
It seemed this girl really had misunderstood something.
He needed to properly explain it to her.
But at this moment Chen Zijin was like a breeze on the field.
Blade rising and falling, she reaped Black Angels one after another.
Triggering the Mythical-grade Shadow Dancer's exclusive effect, slain Black Angels transformed into shadows that circled Chen Zijin, assisting her by automatically pursuing surrounding enemies.
With the Wrath Source Stone's guaranteed 30% all-attribute boost, Chen Zijin's strength gained a notable increase.
Against Black Angels she cut through them like chopping vegetables, one slash, one down.
But after a while Zhang Yue noticed: Chen Zijin's damage remained at roughly the same level, around 3 billion, not increasing.
That meant: during the fight, Chen Zijin's Wrath Value hadn't risen, so the Source Stone's boost hadn't strengthened.
"Looks like you can't make the Wrath Source Stone work either."
Zhang Yue couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
But then he thought, 'Maybe I should stoke the fire a bit?'
'How to stoke it? How to make her angry?'
Earlier, the wind-like Chen Zijin suddenly looked back and saw Zhang Yue in the rear, pinching his chin and staring at her intently, she felt a little pleased.
'He still cares about me, he already confessed to me just now, gave me such an expensive gift, and yet pretended to be innocent,' While Chen Zijin thought this, Zhang Yue, after thinking a long time and coming up with nothing clever, opened Feixin and messaged Ouyang Linger, ["Question, how can I quickly make a girl angry?"]
Ouyang Linger: "???"
["Aren't you my bro? What are you doing?"]
Zhang Yue: ["Just answer the question."]
Ouyang Linger: ["Ah, this touches my blind spot. I don't really know, ask Liyue, she definitely knows!"]
Zhang Yue switched to Liyue's chat and asked the same question.
Liyue, who had dated eight boyfriends so far, naturally knew.
["Make a girl angry? That's easy, I'll teach you!"]
She immediately sent a dozen messages that left Zhang Yue speechless.
Zhang Yue read Liyue's messages, then shouted to Chen Zijin, "Is that all the strength you have? Pathetic!"
At that, Chen Zijin's heart skipped a beat, 'Is he talking about me?'
'He can't be, why would he say that to me? I'm his girlfriend!'
Just as Chen Zijin couldn't be sure, Zhang Yue shouted again, "Chen Zijin, you're too weak!"
'What???'
This big straight man actually told his girlfriend she's too weak??
'Who says that to their girlfriend?'
'On what grounds?'
Chen Zijin began to get emotional.
From Zhang Yue's viewpoint, Chen Zijin was still hunting Black Angels.
But after those two words, her damage noticeably rose.
Previously it had been steady around 3 billion.
Now it jumped up to about 3.5 billion.
Clearly: the Wrath Source Stone sensed anger in Chen Zijin's heart, increased her Wrath Value, and boosted her full attributes by over 30%.
The same taunt, just swapping who said it, produced such a big contrast.
Seeing this, Zhang Yue couldn't help but marvel, 'The thinking gap between men and women is huge.'
He then messaged Liyue, ["It has to be you."]
Seeing the effect wasn't strong enough, and Chen Zijin seemed to pretend she hadn't heard, her damage slid from 3.5 billion down to 3.4, then 3.3.
Zhang Yue looked at Liyue's "jerk lines," then yelled at Chen Zijin, "You think I was confessing to you? Giving you the Heart of Eternity was just to mask your scent so the God of Malevolence and God of Desire don't notice you."
"The Wrath Source Stone, also because I couldn't use it, it's a pity to waste it, so I'm barely giving it to you."
"Stop being self-deluded. From beginning to end, I never liked you, I don't feel anything for you at all."
Hearing Zhang Yue's words, Chen Zijin a moment earlier had been in utter disbelief.
She couldn't believe Zhang Yue would say such things.
At the same time it felt like her heart was being pricked with needles, pain!
Indeed, even Zhang Yue felt saying it was a bit too much.
But it was already too late to take back…
"Zhang Yue, you're too much!"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Chen Zijin instantly flew into a rage; knife light streaked from her dagger, hitting Black Angels that approached one after another.
-3.85 billion!
-4.78 billion!
-5.99 billion!
-7.77 billion!
-10.63 billion!
Zhang Yue was stunned.
'Holy! damage actually... exceeded ten billion?'
Just as Zhang Yue was shocked, a gust of wind swept by.
The next moment, Chen Zijin lunged from a hundred meters away and suddenly appeared before him.
Not even Deadlock Chain reacted in time.
The cold dagger pressed straight to his throat.
Tears shone in Chen Zijin's icy, beautiful eyes.
"Zhang Yue, I hate you!"
Saying that, Chen Zijin vanished from in front of Zhang Yue.
