Chapter 113 Conflict Erupts

Gao Yue and the others genuinely had no idea how such outrageous rumors could have spread, especially since they were so detailed and detailed, with each person making their own assertions.

As if they knew more about the inside story than the women involved, they all wanted to ask Chen Qing if it was really true.

Rumors can be harmful.

However… Gao Yue yawned and glanced in Chen Qingchuan’s direction; the lights were still on.

She truly admired Chen Qing's energy; it seemed she never saw her sleep.

Is this why they are so different?

"Do you think Chen Qing has evolved into a monster that doesn't need to sleep?"

Qiao Zhiyu put her arm around Gao Yue's shoulder and sighed.

With so many muscular turtles, I wonder how long Chen Qing will be busy.

This woman is terrifying; doesn't she need any rest at all?

"Maybe."

Gao Yue even suspected that Chen Qing's extraordinary abilities might be related to sleep; the shorter her sleep time, the more energetic she became.

"She's asleep."

"good evening."

After watching Chen Qing's boat for a while, the two went back to sleep.

I have to work the shift again tomorrow.

Soon, the lights on the deserted island went out one after another.

Only the lights on Chen Qing's boat remained brightly lit, and the muscular turtles, clutching their two halves of the shell, chattered excitedly about what kind of shell they wanted.

...

The shell repair work continued until dawn. If it weren't for the help of the assistant bees and repair ants, Chen Qing really wouldn't have been able to finish it so quickly.

She had used up a lot of the supplies and materials she had.

The activity has been going on for so long, and Chen Qingguang has only spent money without seeing any return.

Chen Qing currently has at least 100,000 to 200,000 goldfish in debt, including the cost of customizing the boat, the money spent on acquiring gems, and other miscellaneous expenses.

While Chen Qing was rummaging through materials in the warehouse, Qiao Zhiyu, with messy hair and an unwashed face, rushed onto Chen Qing's boat in her pajamas.

He was shouting loudly as he charged.

"Chen Qing, something terrible has happened! Something terrible has happened!!"

Despite saying that, Qiao Zhiyu's smile didn't fade at all.

It's obvious that the one involved in this incident was their competitor.

"What's wrong?"

When Chen Qing came out of the warehouse, she looked much neater than Qiao Zhiyu.

So many, so many things!!

Qiao Zhiyu shouted excitedly, not even knowing which thing to say first.

Take your time, there's no rush.

Chen Qing poured Qiao Zhiyu a glass of water to help her catch her breath.

After gulping down the drink, Qiao Zhiyu wiped her mouth and calmed down, then began to explain to Chen Qing.

"I'm telling you, the survivors and the natives have gotten into trouble!"

Qiao Zhiyu lowered her voice, afraid that the natives outside would hear her.

Chen Qing brewed herself a pot of strong tea; she wasn't surprised by the news.

What surprised her was that it only came to light now.

"I don't know which country the survivors came from, but they bought points from the natives. At first, they were paying me well, but then they suddenly pulled a big heist and ran away without paying me!"

The specific process is quite similar to a Ponzi scheme involving musical chairs; in short, the survivors ended up deceiving the natives.

Those survivors hadn't even escaped yet; they were already on the bounty list. Now they're either in the hands of pirates or bounty hunters.

Not a single one escaped.

Although the person has been caught, the impact of this incident is considerable.

It's important to know that there are more than just one or two survivors who cooperate with the natives; almost all of them are on the leaderboard.

Now that this has happened, almost everyone except Chen Qing and Zhao Fuli has been affected; no one can escape it.

The indigenous people took advantage of this survivor incident to deliberately escalate the situation and gain greater benefits.

Of course, there are also indigenous people who genuinely no longer want to cooperate with survivors; their resources are too limited.

Some countries are not even as well-off as Chen Qing, this lone wolf.

"That's not all. Let me tell you, since the event started, haven't there been a lot of betting odds?"

"There are rumors that the indigenous people are manipulating the betting market, and that they are running the biggest one!"

Upon hearing this news, Chen Qing raised an eyebrow slightly, remaining noncommittal.

"And to top it off, the Demon Dragon Pirate Gang is being besieged by other forces and is trapped on Diamond Island. The survivors who bet on Zhao Fuli are going crazy."

"I heard they are organizing an attempt to rescue the Demon Dragon Pirates."

At this point, Qiao Zhiyu paused slightly. Rescuing the Demon Dragon Pirates? They really dared to dream of that. They could be wiped out with a single sword strike from them.

It's one thing to curse in secret, but why are they actually preparing to do it?

"And another thing, Bai Xian has also come to Gem Sea. She is currently targeting the survivors on the leaderboard. As long as they are ranked ahead of the survivor she controls, she will wipe them out one by one."

However, Chen Qing doesn't need to worry for now; her ranking... is not worth paying attention to.

Moreover, even if Chen Qing's ranking improves, Qiao Zhiyu believes that someone will protect her.

Moreover, in the last time Chen Qing fought Bai Xian, Chen Qing had the upper hand.

"Tell me, who do you think will be number one this time?"

After gossiping for a while, Qiao Zhiyu, holding a cup of hot tea, couldn't help but ask.

The temperature in the Gem Sea is not low now, and it is very harmful to the health of ordinary gem hunters to go into the sea to fish for gems.

"Until the very last moment, no one knows what changes might occur."

Chen Qing blew on the hot tea, took a small sip, and sat on the table with Qiao Zhiyu, both holding their cups, gazing at the sky outside the door.

The clear blue sky is like a vibrant oil painting, captivating all who behold it.

"By the way, I'm going to sea today, so I'll leave the work upstairs to you guys."

Chen Qing suddenly said.

"ah???"

Qiao Zhiyu turned her head. Why so suddenly? They hadn't even figured out Fengying Emerald's whereabouts yet!

"Um."

Chen Qing responded calmly. It was time; any later and the sea creatures would begin harvesting the Wind Shadow Jade.

This also allows us to avoid all the chaos mentioned above.

"You two are here?"

Gao Yue and Huo Hou walked in side by side from outside.

"Would you like some tea? Chen Qing brewed it himself."

Qiao Zhiyu raised the cup in her hand and asked.

"I'm not drinking anymore. Chen Qing, when are you planning to leave?"

Gao Yue shook her head and turned to look at Chen Qing.

She was naturally aware of the huge incident that had occurred between the survivors and the natives.

That's not the point. The point is that some survivors have malicious intentions and want to drag Chen Qing into this mess, so that she and the survivors will suffer together!

They have such a big face. They were the ones who criticized Chen Qing before, and now they want Chen Qing to come forward.

What a joke! They want Chen Qing to endorse their books!

Chen Qing doesn't have that much power. It's true that she's on good terms with a few indigenous groups, but once she gets involved in this matter, she'll definitely not come out on top.

"Now."

Chen Qing put down his cup. The muscle turtles and mini rabbits outside the door were all ready and standing at the door, fully armed, waiting for Chen Qing!
