“I remember now!”
"This mountain and this vein... isn't it just that... plot?"
"And the wine... that's not..."
With a thought, Chu Tianxiao no longer had any desire to get entangled with Liang Mao. He waved his hand, said "I'll leave this man to you two gentlemen to deal with", and stepped aside to think quietly.
"It seems... our strategy after entering the mountain needs to be slightly changed..."
What happened next was obvious. Chu Tianxiao was too lazy to pay attention to this man, but he also knew that Lu Meir would never let him go, so it goes without saying how miserable this guy's end was. The "appetizer" laid out by the two gentlemen was also settled immediately, so... When the sun was about to set and the sky was getting darker, Qin Yun and other geniuses returned exhausted, and Chu Tianxiao was already counting the newly acquired 100 bamboo chips.
Originally... Qin Yun and several others were still looking proud - they had just fought with the local residents, gangs, and scattered forces without saying a word, and finally snatched the food from the tiger's mouth with their extraordinary strength and successfully completed the task. They thought this was of course a very good performance...
However…
What greeted them was the bad news that all the bamboo chips had already fallen into Chu Tianxiao's pocket...
Due to the contrast, the corners of everyone's mouth twitched violently in an instant.
After finding out the ins and outs of the "adapted" events, these people didn't know what to say. Many of them could only say "admiration" in their hearts - Chu Tianxiao's move seemed to be a trick, but it was a piece of cake and to the point. He accomplished the task in the easiest and most domineering way, which was at least a level higher than their busyness!
But... some people are also wondering, why does this prodigal son always play by his own rules? He simply has prodigalism in his blood - in order to save "Mr.'s Ahri", he actually prodigals at the slightest disagreement... What a weird statement! Some people even thought that he would do something unexpected in the Fierce Wilderness Mountains... It's a pity that they probably won't see it.
But... no matter how surprised and impressed everyone was, there was one person who would never be like that.
Qin Yun stared at Chu Tianxiao and secretly clenched his fists.
Even though his inner demons had been suppressed, he was still... unwilling to give up.
Today, his luck seemed to have revived. First, he met several key figures while shopping and learned big news from them. Then, he followed the clues and found two secret gang lairs. Then, he defeated a group of strong men with his mighty strength, and almost miraculously won three or four bets that "the other party thought he could never lose", completely convinced the two gang leaders. Before he returned, he obtained two detailed maps, all of which were willingly offered by the gang leaders!
If Chu Tianxiao saw what happened to Qin Yun today, he would definitely sigh deeply: "The fate is rebounding, and the battle of wits and courage is really brutal."
but…
He will certainly add one more sentence.
"What a pity. I work so hard but still end up being worse off than me..."
Yes…
Even though these two detailed maps only lacked some of the secrets and suspicious points compared to the map Chu Tianxiao had obtained, strictly speaking, they were no less...
Even though Qin Yun fought with wisdom and courage today, he got full marks in terms of his performance in training...
but…
It's useless.
It's too late.
Chu Tianxiao has successfully won the trust and support of the little princess by means of squandering money, which means that he has won the righteous cause, in other words, he has won the "final right of interpretation".
Both of them are very outstanding at the moment, and we must decide the winner. What should we do
It’s easy. I can just secretly signal His Highness to come down and make the decision.
So... is there any need to think about the result
Chu Tianxiao's move was actually crushing Qin Yun in terms of rules, levels, and trends!
In this contest of 'true destiny rebound', Chu Tianxiao won the first victory!
However, Chu Tianxiao did not get carried away by this, because he could tell from Qin Yun's reaction that this person was different from before - he was calm, patient, and began to understand practical matters. He would no longer start to question without knowing the situation as he did before.
Chu Tianxiao was quite aware of Qin Yun's changes, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly, but he didn't know for whom he sighed...
But no matter what, this battle of "final suppression"... has just begun.
Chu Tianxiao and Qin Yun's eyes met in the air, as if sparks were flying, and then both of them tacitly turned their eyes away.
At this time, the two gentlemen first finished talking about some experiences, and then began to check the number of people. As for Lu Mei'er, she had already disguised herself and used the alias Chu Yiyi. After some speeches, she joined the team as Chu Tianxiao's cousin. The others knew that this was an extra benefit specially granted by the two banquet hosts of the Autumn Night Banquet this year. Although they were a little surprised that it was not Mu Liuling who came, they were relieved when they thought about Mu Liuling's identity. They didn't think about how big the background of this little sister who came to "see the world" was.
Even if a few people became suspicious and secretly used secret methods to investigate, the result was obvious - because Lu Meir, this naughty kid, did not use any secret method to change her face just for fun, but used the most down-to-earth martial arts acrobatics... Disguise!
Yes, not even some secret human skin mask was used, but the most direct and crude disguise technique, which in later times would be the magical makeup technique...
As a result, all the secret methods targeting high-end deception methods failed one after another. Even Qin Yun's grandfather was deceived because of his misconception. I really don't know whether to say that this naughty kid was improvising or that he hit the mark by accident...
Then, the team, led by the two gentlemen, came to a large inn, and everyone went back to their rooms to rest and recharge their batteries for tomorrow's formal training.
Everyone went to bed early, only Chu Tianxiao kept pacing in the room. After a while, he sat down and tapped the table lightly...
"It seems so..."
"The good-for-nothing... er, no, the classic plot of all Mr. Right - encountering gods fighting on the road, a beautiful lady in the clouds falls to earth, and spends a few days in a dreamlike 'world of two' with Mr. Right. The location... preferably a cave where 'it's pitch dark and easy to work' is the best."
"During this period, perhaps something more ambiguous and charming will happen? Well, let me think... a skewer of barbecue, a side dish or even... some unspeakable drug, step by step, seduced the woman. So, the proud girl who was always high and mighty and looked down upon men became confused and fell in love. Before leaving, she even meddled in other people's business... uh, no, she even left good resources to repay him tenderly or in the hope of revisiting the old times in the future? In an even more extreme version, it seems that she would directly help the prince of destiny to break through to level 70, 80 or 90, so that he would have an incredible cultivation base when he woke up..."
"Yes..."
"This is the soft rice that the prince of destiny loves to eat the most!"
"Looking at the path to true destiny, isn't this the key turning point for true destiny?"
"Soaring into the sky, a qualitative leap! The dominance of the king begins with the soft rice of the imperial concubine!"
Chu Tianxiao knocked on the table, his expression changed several times, he calmed down and thought carefully, and soon, he came to a firm conclusion.
"First of all, I can be sure that I must stop the prince charming from living off his wife! It's not just a matter of chance, but also... I finally got the queen, and I really don't want another imperial concubine to suddenly appear after three months and say - 'No, you can't touch him!' Ah..."
Chu Tianxiao's thoughts became clearer.
"Well... since even the Imperial Concubine has shown up to get involved, we must not let Qin Yun go in the Desolate Mountains this time!"
"Let me do something big this time! I will catch the imperial concubine, the queen, and the old man all at once! I will completely eliminate all future troubles and prevent them from causing trouble again!"
"Also... if conditions permit, maybe we can try to see how strong the fate of this destined prince is..."
Chu Tianxiao’s mind was working rapidly.
"Roughly... there is a plan..."
"But to implement it, three conditions are needed..."
"First, my strength..."
