Speaking of becoming a Supreme God, Qingluan couldn't help but tremble, her eyes flashing with unprecedented desire and determination. "As long as I can become a Supreme God, I am willing to do anything! Whether it means climbing mountains of swords and descending seas of fire, or going through countless hardships and dangers, I, Qingluan, will never retreat!"
Bai Yunlie's lips curled up into a satisfied smile. He gently patted Qingluan's shoulder and said beguilingly, "Don't worry, as long as you are willing to be with me, the position of the Supreme God will be yours sooner or later. Just wait, there is no need to rush."
The two were immersed in the wonderful fantasy of becoming gods in the future, and were completely unaware of the playful smile on Song Jiao's lips.
She secretly complained in her heart: See! Some people will still take the bait.
Why do they always think these so-called "shortcuts" and "temptations" will easily fall upon them? It's ridiculous.
Meanwhile, Li Bai was bored in the fairyland and decided to go to the market, hoping to find some fun.
As soon as he arrived at the market, he smelled an enticing aroma. Following the scent, he saw Song Jiao sitting in an inn, eating a golden roast chicken with big mouthfuls. Her satisfied look made people want to have a taste as well.
"It looks delicious." Li Bai swallowed and walked to Song Jiao's table unconsciously.
He wanted to order one for himself, but when he felt his pocket, he found that he had no money, not even a spirit stone.
Song Jiao looked up and her eyes happened to meet Li Bai's. There was a playful smile on the corner of her mouth, but she did not ask any questions. She just continued to enjoy the food in her hand.
The food at the Celestial Bazaar was truly extraordinary, and every bite gave her an unprecedented sense of satisfaction.
After finishing her meal, she deliberately smacked her lips a few times, as if she was deliberately teasing the embarrassed immortal friend opposite her.
Li Bai felt helpless. Why didn't Song Jiao play by the rules?
He thought to himself: After all, we are acquaintances, can't you just ask me what's wrong? It's so awkward sitting like this!
Finally, Li Bai couldn't help but speak up and broke the silence: "Hey, High God Lin Yin, can't you please ask me why I'm sitting here? You're embarrassing me!"
I waited for a long time, asked nothing, said nothing.
And you're eating so happily? Wouldn't any normal person ask that?
Hearing this, Song Jiao finally put down her chopsticks and a sly smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Then why are you sitting here? Why don't you eat? Are you dissatisfied with the food I ordered?"
Li Bai's face flashed with embarrassment when he heard this, and he whispered, "I don't have any spirit stones on me, and I'm really short of money. I'm embarrassed to start eating."
"Oh? So you're out of money? Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Song Jiao looked at Li Bai with a smile, a hint of amusement in her eyes. "I thought you came here just to have dinner with me! I thought you had such a unique hobby, like watching others eat!"
After that, she waved her hand, signaling the waiter to bring another serving of roast chicken, and then generously pushed the roast chicken in front of Li Bai: "Here, eat it, don't starve yourself."
Li Bai was a little surprised. Looking at the roast chicken in front of him, a warm feeling surged in his heart.
She looked at Song Jiao while eating, "I thought you were the kind of person who was out of touch with the world! I didn't expect we are similar."
"Aloof from worldly matters?" Song Jiao put down the chicken drumstick in her hand, a hint of teasing in her eyes. "It seems that I am very powerful and unattainable in your eyes?"
"Not in my eyes, but in everyone's eyes, you're incredibly formidable." Li Bai took a bite of a chicken leg and said seriously, "But I just can't understand why you're targeting me! We clearly have no grudges in the past or in the present!"
Hearing this, Song Jiao chuckled, her eyes becoming deeper. "Is it possible that I am actually helpless? Some things are not as simple as they seem."
Li Bai shook his head, expressing his confusion. "I don't know what you mean by 'forced to do something', but I do know that there's absolutely no need for us to be so confrontational! I pose no threat to you at all."
Having said this, he felt something in his heart and remembered the hint the system had given him before.
The system said that this person is not a bad person, so why is she hostile to herself?
Song Jiao looked at Li Bai's confused expression, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Do you really think that I am only targeting you? Perhaps, I am just testing you to see if you are the one I am looking for."
"Who are you looking for?" Li Bai was even more confused. "What's so special about me that you're paying so much attention to me?"
Song Jiao didn't answer his question directly, but smiled mysteriously: "I will tell you this question when you pass my test. For now, you just need to know that I have no ill will towards you. I am just doing what I have to do."
When Li Bai heard this, he felt a strong sense of curiosity and anticipation in his heart.
"What test? I'm curious! Can you tell me first?"
Song Jiao shook her head and said, "You'll know soon."
This stuff is boring if I talk about it first.
The two of them ate a very satisfying meal, their stomachs were full. When they walked out of the restaurant with satisfied smiles on their faces, they suddenly ran into Qing Yan.
Qing Yan's appearance was like a sudden cold wind, instantly freezing the originally warm atmosphere.
The look he gave Song Jiao suddenly became extremely sharp, as if he wanted to see through her. "Why are you taking Li Bai with you? What do you want to do?"
His tone was full of questioning and wariness.
Song Jiao was a little confused by this sudden questioning. She frowned unhappily, "Are you sick? What do you want to do just to eat? Can you stop being so unreasonable?"
She felt that Qing Yan was simply mentally ill. He could even interpret having a meal as some conspiracy.
Seeing this, Li Bai's face also darkened.
She stood in front of Song Jiao and looked at Qing Yan coldly, "Lord Qing Yan, please be respectful when speaking to Lord Lin Yin. I have nothing to do with you anymore. It seems that who I am with is none of your business!"
Qing Yan's face turned even darker, and he glared at Li Bai, "Are you done using me and don't want me anymore? Don't forget how you begged me to save you!" His tone was filled with anger and unwillingness.
Li Bai sneered, "I've already said it, we're just using each other, don't make it so hard. I begged you back then because I needed your help. But now, I don't need it anymore. So, please don't talk to me in that tone anymore. There's nothing between us anymore."
Song Jiao suddenly became interested and started eating melon seeds again. Was she going to eat melons on the spot?
