At this point, Zhou Xiaoxiao had a flash of inspiration.
"Or have you been deceived by her?"
"She used this purified beast meat to mislead you, making you believe that she and His Highness the Crown Prince have a very good relationship, and then forced you to be her slaves?"
“But how could that be? His Highness the Crown Prince has so many good things. Giving her a little is almost like charity; it doesn’t mean anything.”
"After all, we all know that His Highness the Crown Prince had his reasons for getting engaged to her, and he could never marry her! How could you still be fooled by her?"
At first, when they learned that Ling Luo had actually become Ye Xingxue's fiancée, the Zhou and Ling families were indeed at a loss for what to do.
But soon they learned that Ye Xingxue and Ling Luo's engagement was just a temporary measure.
Given Ye Xingxue's status and position, it's impossible for him to actually marry Ling Luo.
Therefore, they felt relieved.
Like other netizens in the Empire, they did not change their attitude towards Ling Luo just because Ling Luo and Ye Xingxue got engaged.
Yuan Qi listened, and was so angry he laughed.
"Hey clown, has anyone ever told you that you're ugly?"
Although they didn't possess the extraordinary talent of Ye Xingxue, they weren't truly without ambition.
Their opinion of Ling Luo changed, and they protected her, but this had nothing to do with Ye Xingxue.
All of this was not only because Ling Luo saved them many times, but also because they greatly admired Ling Luo for being more powerful in martial arts than them despite having no talent for cultivation, and for being more daring in the face of difficulties than any of them!
Zhou Xiaoxiao's smile froze: "You, what did you say?"
"I said the way you look when you're jealous is just too ugly."
Zhou Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth: "You, you're saying I'm jealous of that good-for-nothing? How could that be? I have A's and B's, how could I possibly be jealous of her?!"
"I meant well by reminding you, but I never expected my good intentions to backfire! Fine, consider it me meddling!"
Without waiting for Yuan Qi to speak, he left angrily.
Yuan Qi curled his lip, scoffed, and went back to drinking his soup.
Ling Luo has been cultivating at night recently and has made good progress, so she has blocked her five senses to concentrate on her cultivation.
So they didn't notice what was happening outside.
By the time she came out of the tent, Zhou Xiaoxiao and her team had already left.
Yuan Qi asked curiously, "Boss, do you know that woman? Why is she always targeting you?"
You mean Zhou Xiaoxiao?
While drinking her soup, Ling Luo said casually, "She is my ex-fiancé's sister. I don't really know her; I've only met her twice."
"My ex-fiancé's sister?"
When Ling Luo entered the Hailuo Military Academy with a recommendation letter and double F qualifications, many people exposed Ling Luo's situation online.
Therefore, everyone in the empire knows that she actually has a fiancé.
However, her fiancé rejected her because he thought she was too unqualified and got engaged to her cousin instead.
Thinking about this, Yuan Qi and the others felt a little uneasy.
At the time, they all felt that her ex-fiancé hadn't done anything wrong.
Regardless of the circumstances, Ling Luo is indeed a complete waste of talent.
What if the other party wants to marry her and they have a useless child?
Not to mention that the lifespan of martial arts masters and ordinary people is inherently different.
Even if you get married, you're not guaranteed to be happy.
Although they haven't changed their mind about this.
However, the peaceful dissolution of the engagement between the two parties and the other party's oppression of Ling Luo, forcing Ling Luo to dissolve the engagement, are completely different concepts.
Judging from Zhou Xiaoxiao's attitude towards Ling Luo, it's clear that Ling Luo was bullied quite a bit by them when the engagement was called off.
Thinking of this, Yuan Qi and the others narrowed their eyes: "Boss, don't worry, if they dare to bully you again, we'll help you beat them up!"
He paused, then added, "If we can't win, we'll ask His Highness the Crown Prince for help!"
Ling Luo: "..."
She wanted to say no.
She can handle it all by herself.
Before she could even speak, Ye Xingxue contacted her using her personal terminal.
Ling Luo answered the call immediately.
As soon as the video call connected, before Ling Luo could even speak, Yuan Qi and the others looked over.
This was the second time they had seen Ye Xingxue and Ling Luo talking on the phone.
Because they are now much closer to Ling Luo, when they face Ye Xingxue this time, although they still treat Ye Xingxue with great respect, they are not as reserved as before.
Before Ye Xingxue and Ling Luo could speak, they took the initiative to greet Ye Xingxue: "Good morning, Your Highness!"
Night Snow nodded: "Good morning."
"Okay, boss, you guys chat, we'll pack our things first."
Upon hearing this title, Ye Xingxue paused for a moment: "Boss?"
Ling Luo nodded: "Because I'm very strong."
Seeing her serious expression, Ye Xingxue smiled and said, "Yes, that's right, Luo Luo is very strong."
Ling Luo could tell from his attitude that he wasn't serious.
At that moment, Ye Xingxue saw the bowl of strange beast meat she was holding.
After they got married, he learned that she really liked eating meat.
Since Ling Luo could eat the purified beast meat, he put 80% of the beast meat he had received into his storage bag and gave it to her.
Now, seeing the beast meat in her hand, he assumed it was from her: "Is it delicious?"
Ling Luo nodded: "It's delicious."
"Mmm, as long as it tastes good."
At this point, Ye Xingxue asked him the same question he always asked when he contacted her: "Are you tired lately?"
Ling Luo shook her head: "Not tired."
Many times before, Ye Xingxue would contact her at night, when Lingluo was in the tent.
Therefore, the Empire's netizens were unaware that they were in frequent contact.
Seeing them in contact again now doesn't evoke the same complicated feelings as before.
After all, even if Ling Luo couldn't become a martial arts master, she did have admirable qualities.
“Even if Ling Luo’s background isn’t good, if her cultivation aptitude is as good as Miss Luo Yi’s, I think they’re quite a good match.”
"Yes, His Highness the Crown Prince is really good to her."
"Our Crown Prince is such a kind person. He must feel pity for someone who has no talent for cultivation but is still so hardworking and brave. It's understandable that he treats her well. It's just a pity that they are destined not to be together."
"Too."
At this moment, Ye Xingxue asked Ling Luo again, "How's the harvest lately?"
Speaking of this, Ling Luo's face darkened: "Not very good."
These past two days, she's been trying to find a level two or higher exotic beast for Xia Lin and the others to practice on.
But I still can't find it.
It's so annoying.
Upon seeing this, the viewers in the live stream were immediately filled with question marks.
"???"
"??? You call this bad? If this isn't good, how are the other teams supposed to survive?"
"Before Ling Luo took the lead, their team's ranking was stable at around 250th. But after she took the lead, their ranking jumped to almost 100th yesterday! If this continues, they might very well break into the top 80!"
"that is!"
But Ye Xingxue was unaware of these things.
He genuinely believed their team had a poor record.
Just as he was about to say a few words of comfort to Ling Luo, Yuan Qi and the others had already packed up the tent and came out to say to Ling Luo, "Boss, we're all packed up!"
Ling Luo turned around and responded.
Although they didn't talk much, Ye Xingxue could sense that their relationship seemed to have become much closer.
He also noticed that Yuan Qi and the others were less reserved around him than last time because they had a good relationship with her.
Such a dramatic change can only mean that their relationship is even closer than he currently perceives.
Thinking of this, Ye Xingxue pursed her thin lips slightly, her deep eyes glancing at Xia Lin and the others.
Xia Lin and the others suddenly felt a chill run down their spines.
Turning around, they saw Ye Xingxue on the other end of the video suddenly looking at them with dark, unfathomable eyes. They were taken aback for a moment: "Your Highness, the Crown Prince?"
Ye Xingxue remained silent.
But Ling Luo didn't notice any of this.
She saw that it was almost time.
They should continue on their journey.
He then said to Ye Xingxue, "I'm hanging up now."
Ye Xingxue looked at her without saying a word.
Ling Luo looked at him, puzzled: "What's wrong?"
Does he still have something to say to her?
Night Snow definitely had more to say.
But since she's in public now, there are some things he can't bring himself to ask.
"Are we about to leave?"
Ling Luo: "Mm."
"Okay, I'll contact you tonight."
Ling Luo casually hummed in agreement.
After realizing what she had just realized, she paused for a moment.
Because apart from the first day after arriving on the Beast Star, when Ye Xingxue contacted her twice in one day out of concern, Ye Xingxue only contacted her once every two or three days thereafter.
