Who is the next guest?
This time, only the little fox returned; Zhen Hu was nowhere to be seen.
"My...my elder brother...ah, where is that hunter?" Zhen Po glanced at the door again and realized that no one had returned. She felt a little panicked.
"That gentleman's wish has come true, he's heading down the mountain now!"
The little fox's soft voice startled everyone present except for Mingmei.
"Huh? His wish came true?"
Now both Da Yao and Julian were in a panic.
"It's clearly just a basket of wild game..."
Although none of them knew what price Zhen Hu had paid, Julian's words exposed his own problems.
Julian's wish did not come true immediately, perhaps due to the issue with the offerings.
Hearing this, Da Yao's eyes flashed, and she looked in Julian's direction.
Like Julian, she was actually lacking in tribute.
Therefore, the fox spirit told her to think about it.
However, she really didn't expect that Zhen Hu, who only brought a basket of wild game, would actually succeed and leave with his wish fulfilled.
"Who wants to go next?"
Only Mu Chen and Zhen Po remained present. Mu Chen sat there without saying a word, so Zhen Po had no choice but to raise her hand and ask to go herself.
Mingmei originally wanted to continue checking on Zhenpo's situation, but what happened inside the house seemed to be more interesting.
"What did you wish for?" This time, Da Yao took the initiative to ask Julian, "Don't let us end up being the only ones left behind."
Julian simply turned to look at her and asked, "And what about you?"
"Guess what? There's bound to be a difference in our rankings, right?"
What kind of riddle are they playing?
Mingmei looked around and saw that there were only four people left in the room, including herself. Julian and Dayao, who were a fake couple in the game, still seemed to be dragging each other down.
Listening to this heated exchange, Mingmei's imagination ran wild.
Surely Da Yao's wish wouldn't be meant to prevent Julian's wish from coming true?
Neither of them offered any tribute.
Mu Chen saw it clearly and whispered to Mingmei, "Judging from their behavior, there must be a significant problem with the offerings and wishes they made in front of the fox spirit."
This time, Mu Chen learned from his previous experience and didn't breathe hot air on Mingmei's neck.
This behavior only served as a reminder to Mingmei—Mu Chen, you were able to control yourself this time, which means you did it on purpose before?
[That's right! That's exactly it! Host, even when in love, you need to stay clear-headed and see through a man's tricks!]
She inadvertently revealed her thoughts to Gui Gui, who then seized the opportunity to have Ming Mei wary of Mu Chen.
Bright and beautiful: [...]
She's not some naive young girl anymore; she's been single for over sixty years... cough, a true single aristocrat.
...
"My wish is very simple~" Da Yao crossed her arms and did not intend to say her wish directly. Instead, she pretended to be very troubled and said, "It's just that I don't have any offerings."
After saying that, Da Yao looked up at Julian, a slight smile playing on her lips, and asked, "As for you, I remember you said earlier that you had prepared offerings~ What, it seems your wish hasn't been fulfilled either?"
Mingmei also remembered that Zhen Hu had asked Julian about the offerings before, and then brought it up again when they entered the temple. At that time, Julian's answer was that he had already prepared them.
At the time, Lu Xiaoyao said that the other party was just making empty promises and bragging.
But when Da Yao asked that question, Mingmei felt that something was off.
Did Da Yao notice something that Lu Xiao Yao didn't?
“Some wishes are more complicated, and the methods to achieve them are naturally slower.” Julian smiled at Da Yao, his eyes devoid of any emotion.
Da Yao responded with a cold laugh.
Mingmei could see clearly that both of them had smiles on their faces, but there was an urgent desire in their eyes for each other to kill.
Seeing this, Mingmei couldn't help but sigh.
These two are truly a tragic fate!
"At least one of them will die in this round."
Looking at the standoff between the two, Mu Chen said to Mingmei, "If I'm not mistaken, their... tribute should be each other."
Bright and beautiful: !! !! ?
Is this even allowed?
She turned around in horror to look at Mu Chen, who was leaning close to her and smiling broadly, and was dumbfounded.
Although she didn't speak, her bright eyes conveyed: "Really? You're not lying to me."
"real."
Mu Chen opened his mouth, speaking silently.
Just then, after Mu Chen finished speaking, Da Yao and Julian, who were still testing each other, suddenly started fighting.
In the close-quarters combat, the sound of fists colliding made Mingmei instinctively stand up and move away, retreating to a corner with Mu Chen.
"My God, these two are fighting..."
Mingmei watched the two fighting. Julian's fighting skills were obviously the result of systematic training. Every punch and kick was precise in terms of power and angle. If you were to get hit by a kick, you would lose half your life.
Da Yao, on the other hand, had a rather eclectic fighting style, unlike those of someone who had received formal training. She was all about killing her opponent, throwing punches at tricky angles with fierce force. She wasn't afraid of being injured herself; all she wanted was to kill her.
There's a saying that goes, "The ruthless are afraid of those who have no regard for their lives."
Dayao is clearly the latter.
Finally, despite having her ribs broken by the opponent, Da Yao plunged her hairpin directly into the opponent's throat.
