Fearing Xiao Ci's power and tempted by the Breakthrough Pill, the level nine giant lion finally left unwillingly.
After the crisis was over, Xiao Ye's burning gaze immediately fell on Qin Qing.
"Qing'er, I will always remember your kindness to me and never forget it in this lifetime."
Qin Qing: "?"
Is the male lead mentally ill?
What's good?
When has she ever been nice to the male lead?
Is it really good for him to just stand by and watch him get hung up by a level nine giant lion?
Qin Qing ignored Xiao Ye and instead looked at Qin Wan with disbelief in her eyes.
"Sister..." Actually, breaking off the engagement is a good thing.
Xiao is truly not good enough for Qin Wan.
So what if Qin Wan is born with a useless body and cannot cultivate?
Her younger sister is beautiful, has a great figure, and comes from a top-tier wealthy family. She has everything she could want. Why would she bother with a weak and pathetic man like Xiao Ye?
Given the Qin family's background and capabilities, arranging for Qin Wan to be protected by several high-level sword masters would be a piece of cake.
Swordsman, Sword Master, Great Swordsman, Sword Saint, Sword Venerable, Sword God!
On the Xuanwu Continent, swordsmen's cultivation levels are divided into six levels, each of which is further divided into beginner, intermediate, and advanced stages. Xiao Ye is currently only a beginner-level Grand Swordsman.
"What's wrong with my sister?"
Seeing Qin Qing hesitate to speak, before she could even finish a sentence, she inwardly criticized Xiao Ye, finding fault with him completely.
It's like anyone who marries Xiao Ye in the future will be incredibly unlucky.
"Qin Wan?"
Xiao Ci's sudden words interrupted the sisters' eye contact.
"Brother Xiao?" Qin Wan looked at Xiao Ci with a puzzled expression.
"you……"
Xiao Ci glanced at Xiao Ye and Qin Qing, who were watching from the sidelines. Then, thinking about how Qin Wan had never made a fuss about saving Xiao Ye, he subconsciously assumed that Qin Wan did not want Xiao Ye to know that she had saved his life.
After a moment's hesitation, Xiao Ci changed the subject.
How much do you know about a level nine giant lion?
"...I don't really know much about it." After reviewing the original owner's memories, Qin Wan answered seriously.
"..." Xiao Ci pursed his thin lips, his brows furrowed slightly, and looked at Qin Wan as if he wanted to say something but hesitated, as if he did not believe what she said.
Before Xiao Ci could press further, Qin Wan seemed to have guessed what was puzzling him and offered to answer his questions.
“I don’t know much about the level nine giant lion, but I do know that all we need to do to get the Vermilion Fruit is lure it away.”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ci subconsciously glanced around and instantly understood.
With the close protection of a high-level swordsman, drawing away the level nine giant lion was indeed not difficult for her.
Thinking about how Qin Wan, despite having no cultivation, still risked her life to save Xiao Ye, Xiao Ci's impression of her improved considerably.
Despite being born with a useless physique, he never became discouraged or negative.
Intelligent, brave and decisive, good at thinking, unafraid of trouble, and unafraid of gossip and the opinions of the world.
This girl is really good.
Xiao Ci's favorability increased by 5, current favorability is 12.
Qin Wan also knew about the Vermilion Fruit?
Could it be that Qin Wan also knew about Qin Qing saving him?
Thinking of this, Xiao's gaze toward Qin Qing became even more intense.
Qin Qing: "..." Is this male lead sick?
Poor eyesight?
Or is he not thinking straight?
As the male lead, it's one thing if he doesn't look at the female lead, but why does he keep staring at her, the female supporting character?
Could it be that the male lead thinks she has too long a life and is too resilient?
He doesn't like her and wants to use the female lead to get rid of this supporting female character.
Upon realizing this, Qin Qing felt instantly uneasy.
Depend on!
Although she was unlucky enough to be forced to transmigrate into a supporting female character, Qin Qing is still an ambitious young woman, isn't she?
She was focused on her career and only wanted to become the number one female leader in the Xuanwu Continent. She had absolutely no interest in those messy love affairs between men and women!
She had no intention of interfering in the relationship between the male and female leads, nor did she want to be their enemy.
However, if Xiao Ye insists on pestering her and refuses to let her go, then she will have no choice but to strike first!
Thinking of this, Qin Qing lowered her eyes to conceal the fleeting glint of darkness in them.
"elder sister."
Qin Wan promptly interrupted Qin Qing's increasingly uncontrollable flights of fancy.
"What's wrong, Wan'er?"
Looking at Qin Wan, who was as beautiful and obedient as a fairy descended from heaven, Qin Qing felt her heart soften completely.
Putting the plot aside, having a younger sister like Qin Wan is truly a feast for the eyes and extremely pleasing to the eye.
Moreover, Qin Wan is truly well-behaved and sensible, and she doesn't give up on herself just because she was born with a useless body.
She did not develop an arrogant and domineering personality despite the Qin family's doting on her.
“Sister, we’re almost at the heart of the Demon Beast Forest. The top-grade spiritual fruit you’re looking for is there. But the journey is fraught with danger. Perhaps I should stay here and wait for your triumphant return, so as not to hold you back.”
Of course, most importantly, she really wanted some peace and quiet and didn't want to listen to Qin Qing's incessant rambling thoughts anymore.
"no!"
"I'm worried about leaving you here alone."
"If you don't go in, I won't go in either!"
Qin Qing stubbornly held onto Qin Wan's hand and refused to let go, looking like best friends who were inseparable.
Seeing this, Xiao also chimed in, "Yes, Wan'er, you have no cultivation, so it's best if you don't go alone."
"While this place isn't as perilous as the deeper parts, it's not a place where you can linger and rest."
Qin Wan: "..." This male lead is really unlikable.
His words were full of subtle hints that she was a useless person.
Before Qin Wan could speak, Qin Qing retorted without hesitation.
"Xiao Ye, shut up! If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute!"
"Furthermore, this is a matter for our Qin family, it has nothing to do with you, and it is not your place to comment on it."
“My sister can do whatever she wants, and you, an outsider, have no right to comment.”
As she spoke, Qin Qing looked Xiao Ye up and down with disdain in her eyes.
"As a novice Grand Swordsman, you couldn't even handle a few small magical beasts just now. As a man, you're not even as good as me, a woman."
"Wan'er is my sister, and I, Qin Qing, will protect her. As for you, instead of worrying about Wan'er, you should worry more about yourself."
Seeing Qin Qing's protectiveness, Qin Wan couldn't help but smile.
Hmm, this transmigrator is quite cute.
I just like to mutter and complain to myself, which can be a little annoying.
"Qing'er, I didn't mean anything by it, I'm just worried about Wan'er..."
Seeing that Qin Qing misunderstood him and her gaze was becoming increasingly unfriendly, Xiao Ye panicked instantly and hurriedly tried to explain.
"The mistress..." Before Qin Wan and Qin Qing could speak, Xiao Ci, who had been watching from the sidelines, suddenly hesitated and interrupted Xiao Ye with a complicated look in his eyes.
"Big brother?" Xiao Ye looked over in confusion, seemingly puzzled as to why Xiao Ci was calling him.
"Did something go wrong with your cultivation?"
"No?" Xiao Ye was taken aback, his face full of question marks, as if he didn't understand why Xiao Ci asked that.
No?
Where did your brain go?
Could it be that you really left it at home and didn't bring it with you?
Xiao Ci looked at Xiao Ye with a complicated expression, his feelings extremely complex.
Over the years, he has been busy with his spiritual practice and has not paid much attention to matters at home.
She also neglected to communicate with her two younger brothers, and had no idea when the once clever and lovable Xiao San had grown into such a... stupid and clumsy person.
