"Too much? I don't think it's too much!" Song Jiao's voice was crisp but with unquestionable majesty, and her eyes were sharp.
Want a group pet? Sure! Giving you a bunch of useless pets seems pretty good too!
"Hurry up and make your choice. Don't dilly-dally here and waste my and everyone else's precious time! You want to save people? And you want to use the resources I give you to cultivate and improve your cultivation? There's no such thing as a bargain in this world!"
Song Jiao couldn't stand people who were both greedy and indecisive. She felt that such people were like chewing gum stuck to the soles of her shoes, disgusting and difficult to get rid of.
She cursed in her heart, this kind of person should be kicked out as soon as possible to avoid being an eyesore!
The disciples looked at each other, and no one dared to speak for a moment.
Song Jiao didn't care what they thought. She just flipped her wrist and spiritual power surged, abolishing the cultivation of those hesitant disciples one by one. Then she waved her hand lightly, and those people were sent out of the sect's formation like fallen leaves blown by the wind.
Suddenly, the surroundings became extremely quiet, with only the rustling of leaves in the wind.
The Great Elder was stunned watching from the side. He never expected Song Jiao to be so decisive.
But when he thought about what those people had done recently, he felt that although Song Jiao's approach was extreme, it was also an effective way to clean up the house.
As time went by, the sect gradually returned to its former tranquility.
However, for Lan Zhi and Luo Qingjue, without Song Jiao's resource support, their days in the secret realm became extremely difficult.
Lan Zhi originally thought that this secret realm was a treasure trove, and was full of joy when he came in. He didn't expect that now he couldn't even find anything to eat.
She looked around cautiously, fearing that she might encounter any danger, and finally had no choice but to walk towards Luo Qingjue.
"Ajue, what should we do? There is no food here." Lan Zhi's voice was filled with anxiety and helplessness.
Luo Qingjue was sitting cross-legged on the ground with his eyes closed, resting.
Hearing Lan Zhi's words, he suddenly opened his eyes, a trace of anger flashing in his eyes, "Eat, eat, eat, you only know how to eat! You will die if you don't eat for a day, right? What did you tell me at the beginning? You said your master loves you very much and you will help me get what I want! And now? What benefits have I gained?"
The anger that had been accumulating for a long time erupted like a volcano at this moment, and Luo Qingjue's voice almost made the leaves tremble.
He stood up, staring at Lan Zhi as if he could see through her. "I gave up so much for you, and what's the result? Not only am I trapped in this secret realm, I can't even practice! I can't even practice!"
"So, I shouldn't have listened to you and gone to the sect with you! I should have just killed you."
Lan Zhi shuddered at Luo Qingjue's anger, but she quickly calmed down, tugging at Luo Qingjue's sleeve and coquettishly saying, "Ajue, don't be angry. I didn't expect it to turn out like this. Let's think of a way, we will definitely find a way to lift the seal..."
Luo Qingjue's patience had been worn to its limit. He stared at Lan Zhi coldly, the anger in his heart of being deceived and used almost bursting out of his chest.
He never thought that he would fall to the point where he had to rely on a useless person who had not even established a foundation to remove the seal on his body. This was simply a great irony to his cultivation and wisdom.
"That's enough, Lan Zhi. I've heard enough of your nonsense." Luo Qingjue's voice was low and resolute. Every word was like a sharp blade, cutting through the falsehood and hope in the air. "Go away. I don't want to see you at all now! Don't let me waste my time on you anymore."
A trace of panic flashed in Lan Zhi's eyes. She wanted to argue something, but Luo Qingjue didn't give her the chance. With a wave of his sleeves, a powerful force instantly swept her up, like autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves, and mercilessly slammed her onto the rock at the edge of the cave.
With a "bang", Lan Zhi fell heavily to the ground. The pain made her sober up a little. She looked at Luo Qingjue in disbelief. The eyes that were once full of tenderness were now filled with indifference and alienation.
"If you dare to say another word, I will really be rude." Luo Qingjue's words contained an unquestionable threat. His eyes seemed to be able to freeze everything, causing Lan Zhi to shiver.
Lan Zhi gritted his teeth, holding back the gasp that was about to come out, turned around and staggered towards the cave entrance, found a secluded corner and curled up, his heart filled with fear and anxiety about the future.
Tuanzi witnessed all of this and couldn't help but smack his lips, jokingly saying, "Oh my, this plot twist is so unexpected! The heroine, without the halo of the group's favorite, turns out to be so vulnerable! There's not even a trace of sympathy in the hero's eyes."
Hearing this, Song Jiao's lips curled up into a playful smile, her eyes moving across the system screen. "The male protagonist dotes on the female protagonist? That depends on whether the female protagonist is worthy of it. Face, status, or actual role, what does Lan Zhi have now besides relying on the original owner's favor and the aura of being the group's favorite?"
"Lan Zhi has nothing now, how could Luo Qingjue still be carrying a burden?" Song Jiao smiled contemptuously. In her eyes, these routines were already commonplace.
Tuanzi continued to marvel: "It seems that the heroine is the only one still immersed in the dream of finding true love."
Time passed quietly, and the sky outside the cave gradually darkened. After about four or five hours, Luo Qingjue's patience was finally exhausted.
He thought Lan Zhi would at least try to find some food, but when he walked out of the cave, he saw Lan Zhi curled up in the grass, sleeping soundly.
"Lan Zhi!" Luo Qingjue's voice was like thunder, instantly waking Lan Zhi from his dream.
She suddenly opened her eyes, and what she saw was Luo Qingjue's angry face.
"You're hungry, and you don't even know how to find something to eat? You useless piece of shit!"
"I... I don't dare..." Lan Zhi said timidly, his eyes instantly reddened and tears welled up in his eyes. "I... I really don't dare to go out. I'm afraid that if I leave, I'll be killed by wild animals or enemies..."
"Luo Qingjue, didn't you say you would protect me? This is how you protect me now?" Lan Zhi's voice was tearful, trying to use his past warmth to awaken a trace of pity in Luo Qingjue's heart.
However, Luo Qingjue's eyes became even colder: "Protection? That is based on the premise that you can save yourself. It seems that I overestimated you."
"Luo Qingjue, you said before that as long as you are with me, anything is fine! But now you have abandoned me. All your words were lies to me! You liar!" Lan Zhi's voice became louder and louder.
"Pa!" The next second, Luo Qingjue raised his hand and slapped her in the face.
"Then tell me, have you done what you promised me?"
