Ning Rongrong thought for a moment and said:
"Not necessarily!"
"According to our analysis of Liam's diary entries, the Spirit Hall's moves aren't supposed to happen for many years. If they start acting now, I'm afraid the Spirit Hall hasn't made sufficient preparations yet."
"My guess is that Bibi Dong wants to use this to showcase her strength to the factions standing with the Spirit Hall. Once they see Hu Liena's spirit ring configuration, who wouldn't be wholeheartedly devoted to the Spirit Hall?"
Liu Erlong nodded thoughtfully and looked at Ning Rongrong with a surprised expression, saying:
"I didn't expect you to be so smart!"
Ning Rongrong looked embarrassed and replied speechlessly, "Should I take that as a compliment?"
"Haha."
Liu Erlong smiled and said:
"I was indeed complimenting you; when I was your age, I was inferior to you in every way."
Ning Rongrong pouted and suddenly said:
"Senior Erlong, how about you do me a favor today and pose as someone from our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan so I can attend an internal meeting?"
"No way, right?"
"You are one of the Upper Three Sects; what could you possibly gain by joining the Spirit Hall?"
Liu Erlong instantly furrowed her brows.
"Not even mentioning the strength of the Spirit Hall itself, the current Spirit Hall had Liam, who possessed immense power and foreknowledge of the world."
Ning Rongrong replied with a serious look on her face.
Of the future.
The fate of the Spirit Hall will be rewritten, so even for a major sect like the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, if they do not side with the Spirit Hall, their future will not end well either!
Liu Erlong muttered:
"If that's the case, then I can't support you; I must represent the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan."
"Hehe."
Ning Rongrong said with a cheerful smile:
"Senior Erlong, I can represent the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and persuade my father, but you cannot represent the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan."
Ah!
During their conversation,
Liam walked out of the room with Hu Liena and the other three, who had finished their breakfast.
What breakfast?
"Successfully made it!"
Breakfast was, of course, one sausage and two eggs.
Normally, under normal circumstances.
Liam would probably take a while, but alas! Hu Liena, Dugu Yan, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ye Lengleng all showed up at once.
Four people eating breakfast together!
Liam really couldn't handle it... Wait, no! One sausage and two eggs for breakfast is obviously not enough for four people.
So, Liam came out quickly.
Although there are details to elaborate on, they cannot be elaborated on (in detail).
And so.
The four of them teamed up and finished the breakfast cleanly and efficiently, and Liam surrendered before long.
Liu Erlong and Ning Rongrong were still chatting, but when they saw Liam and the others come out, they both stopped and looked over.
"Yo!"
When Liam saw Liu Erlong, he joked,
"Isn't this Liu Erlong, who wanted to challenge me one-on-one? Do you have time today for us to have a match?"
"Oh, that's right, you said you wanted to experience the feeling of dying and coming back to life. Want to give it a try?"
For a moment, all the women on the scene laughed. Liu Erlong was so embarrassed that her face turned red, and she wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
So infuriating!
Liam, you jerk, a whole day has passed; why are you bringing this up again?
Are you being polite?
Liu Erlong gritted her teeth and said:
"I..."
Liam smiled and said, "How was it? Did you experience the feeling of death?"
"Social death is still death."
Although Liu Erlong had a fiery temper, she really couldn't handle this situation. She wanted to retort, but felt powerless to do so.
"Hmph!"
Liu Erlong was also furious, glared fiercely at Liam, and said, "If you have the guts, let's compete next time!"
Upon hearing this, Liam became even more amused and replied:
"You said it yourself!"
"If you lose again next time, you won't be allowed to sit at the table when drinking; you'll have to go sit with Laifu and drink on the side."
Liu Erlong looked puzzled, turned her head to look at Hu Liena and the others, and asked:
"Who is Laifu?"
Xiao Wu pointed to a puppy in the distance and whispered a reminder:
"That's him."
"Huh?"
Liu Erlong was instantly displeased and retorted, "Liam, you jerk, are you actually insulting me?"
"You're telling me to drink with a dog?"
"Pah!"
"Fine, fine, fine. Next time I drink, I'll drink with a dog." And that 'next time' will be with you!
Smack!
Liam slapped Liu Erlong directly on her plump buttocks and said,
"I won't argue with you today. Let's chat again tomorrow when you're free, and we'll see who ends up sleeping in the doghouse after getting drunk!"
"Let's go, time to head out."
Liam walked in front, and Hu Liena and her group followed along.
Liu Erlong's face turned even redder.
Dammit!
I'm still a young woman, yet you jerk have no manners at all—how could you hit me there?
But then again...
As Liu Erlong followed behind the group, she secretly observed the other women. After all, these girls are just girls; none of them seem to have a backside as perky as mine!
Ugh, pfft, pfft, pfft.
What on earth am I even focusing on?
[Yeah!]
[Today is another day full of energy.]
[Today is a good day. My wife, Hu Liena, will be crowned the Saintess of the Spirit Hall, from now on to be above ten thousand, second only to one.]
[Doesn't my status have to rise along with that?]
[It's truly distressing. I could clearly rely on my own strength to make a name for myself, yet I keep drifting further and further down this path of being a kept man.]
[Let me see what I should write in today's diary. Oh! Today's diary entry is about Hu Liena!]
Over here.
Hu Liena, walking beside Liam, felt a bit bewildered after seeing the diary's content.
That's not right!
My teacher received the third reward last night; why did the teacher give that third reward to me?
Dugu Yan and the others glanced slightly at Hu Liena, sighing in their hearts!
Perhaps, just as Liam said, Bibi Dong has let down too many people in her life, but she has never let down Hu Liena, treating her completely as her own daughter.
Take today's reward, for example; it is easy for everyone to imagine that Bibi Dong likely intended it
to be a small gift for Hu Liena on the day she is crowned as the Saintess.
Even though Bibi Dong is a madwoman, in her role as a teacher, she is beyond reproach.
So envious.
Crown Prince's Mansion.
Qian Renxue had actually suffered from insomnia last night.
Because the more she thought about it last night, the more wrong it felt. This gunpowder was indeed special, but how could that single blast of flame serve as a weapon to attack
the enemy?
How exactly should this gunpowder be used?
She was bewildered and restless.
Now.
Early in the morning, seeing the diary entry updated by Liam, Qian Renxue felt a profound sense of stifled frustration in her heart!
Although she and Hu Liena were like sisters, she still couldn't help but feel jealous, while at the same time, her heart was filled with envy toward Hu Liena.
