"What do you mean?!" Zi Yan slammed her hand on the table and stood up.
This action did not frighten Lin Jingge; instead, it made her feel strange.
If she remembered correctly, the woman slamming her hand on the table should be the one who trembled with fear at a single sentence in the Starry Forest.
But now the other person doesn't seem like a timid person at all; instead, she seems like her fiery older sister.
The person in front of her was too incongruous, giving Lin Jingge a very strange feeling.
"You clearly stole our larvae! My treasure-hunting rats have already chased after us! And you still want to deny it?!"
Zi Yan said angrily, her face filled with rage as she spoke.
Xiao Changyi remained silent and let Ziyan speak.
"Ha, that's hilarious!" Lin Jingge rolled her eyes.
Not to mention that the larva was her prey, it's one thing for this group of people to come and steal the monster, but they couldn't even snatch her away in the final, fatal blow.
According to the rules of the Canglan Continent, monsters can be stolen, but whoever kills them owns them, and since she picked up the corpse in the end, it was hers.
Do you think you can get her to vomit with just a few words? Do you think she's stupid?
If all else fails, she can simply lead Granny Lin and the others away from here.
"You...!" Zi Yan was furious at Lin Jingge's eye roll.
A crescent-shaped magical artifact flew towards Lin Jingge.
Lin Jingge didn't know the grade of the artifact, but this thing was gleaming coldly and looked valuable at first glance.
She dared not be careless and dodged away alone.
After dodging, she had time to think. This magical artifact looked too familiar; it was clearly the same artifact that the woman who had stolen the monster had used!
"Enough!" Xiao Changyi stopped Zi Yan from going forward.
Zi Yan glanced at her wrist, which was being held by Xiao Changyi, and quickly stopped, afraid of hurting him.
"Hmph!" She snorted coldly and put the magical artifact away.
Lin Jingge looked at the two of them coldly.
Seeing Xiao Changyi's actions, it seemed like he was helping her, but that wasn't actually the case. If a real fight broke out, would she be afraid?
Not to mention that the other party's level is lower than her own, her physical strength alone is something that a delicate young lady cannot compare to.
One slap from her can make someone cry for a long time!
“Miss, we’re not here to fight today. Ziyan just has a bit of a temper; she means no harm…”
"Ha, no malicious intent? They even used magical weapons, and you call that no malicious intent?!"
Xiao Changyi was once again rebuked by Lin Jingge, who hit the nail on the head and shut him down.
Instead of blaming Lin Jingge, he subconsciously glanced back at Zi Yan, his gaze carrying a warning.
Zi Yan felt wronged, pursed her lips, angrily sat back down, turned her head to the side, and stopped talking.
"Miss..." Upon seeing this, Xiao Changyi turned around, a smile that he considered perfect, as he looked at Lin Jingge.
If a woman is attracted to his style, she might actually be captivated by his smile. Xiao Changyi has done just that before; in the capital, no young lady is immune to his charm.
However, this time he was disappointed.
Lin Jingge, unfortunately, didn't like her at all.
Xiao Shi and Lin Jingge had similar tastes. Seeing Xiao Changyi's appearance, Xiao Shi gagged and covered her eyes with her two cat paws, looking like she couldn't stand it.
[I can't believe how greasy this person is! I've never seen anyone so greasy in my entire life!]
It really does prove the saying, "I'm not oily, I'm not oily."
Hearing Xiao Shi's complaints, Lin Jingge couldn't help but chuckle.
Xiao Changyi misunderstood the smile as a sign that the other party was softening because of him, and quickly pressed his advantage, saying, "Miss, I said I sincerely want the larvae's milk, so name your price."
"No!" Lin Jingge answered without even thinking.
LOL, this kind of treasure is practically priceless, how could she possibly give it away?
Moreover, now that the evidence has been destroyed, she will never admit that she took the body.
"Girl, I..."
"What do you mean 'I'? I already said I didn't take the body! Aren't you all annoying me?!" Lin Jingge said impatiently. "I left a long time ago. Who knows which one of you stole the body? Instead of asking your companions, you came to my house. It's ridiculous!"
"Pah!" Zi Yan was enraged again by Lin Jingge's words and slammed her hand on the table.
Her voice instantly drew everyone's attention.
"My treasure-hunting rat has already come looking for me, and you still want to deny it?!"
"Heh, looking for you? Found what? Found the fruit milk tea I made for my brother?" Lin Jingge sneered. "I think it's because you haven't fed your mouse in so long that it came running over to lick the bowl as soon as it smelled the aroma."
"You..." Zi Yan couldn't argue with Lin Jingge, so she took out her magic weapon again.
"What? You can't win an argument, so you're going to resort to violence again?" Lin Jingge's sarcastic smile grew wider and wider, her mind filled with contempt for the other person.
"Go check if there's any spiritual energy in that bowl before you come back to me. Don't act like you have no brains." Lin Jingge crossed her arms, glanced at the two of them, and showed no remorse whatsoever.
You can tell if someone is skilled just by looking at them.
The spiritual energy was completely absorbed by Xiaozhi, so how could there be anything left? The only thing left might be some scent, and there was also a lot of residual energy from the treasure-hunting rat in the bowl.
She refused to believe that these people could find anything after all this.
Of course, the main reason was that the other party was at the same level as her, and cultivation level was her confidence, which was why Lin Jingge was not afraid of them.
She knew without much thought that Xiao Changyi hadn't made a move at first because he wasn't sure of her strength.
If she were a spirit or a spiritual being, the other party wouldn't have bothered talking to her; they would have just grabbed her.
That's just how helpless this world is. Without the constraints of law, whoever has the biggest fist is the boss. There's nothing that fighting can't solve, and even if someone is killed, no one will care.
Hearing Lin Jingge's words, Zi Yan gripped the magic weapon in her hand tightly. Thinking of Xiao Changyi's reprimand, she held back and did not make a move, but her eyes were still glaring fiercely at Lin Jingge.
Xiao Changyi listened to the back-and-forth conversation between the two with a look of surprise and uncertainty.
As soon as he entered the house, he examined the bowl that the treasure-hunting rat had crawled into, and indeed, as Lin Jingge had said, it had no spiritual energy.
The larvae's milk is rich in spiritual energy, and it won't dissipate quickly.
"So, can you leave my house now?!" Lin Jingge looked coldly at the two silent people.
"Brother Yi!" Zi Yan stamped her foot, wanting Xiao Changyi to make a decision.
"Instead of causing trouble here, you should go back and investigate who was nearby at the time," Lin Jingge advised the two, then added with a sigh, "I never thought that even though I left so early, I would be suspected. Human nature is so fickle these days."
Xiao Shi was overjoyed. If it had fingers, it would definitely give its dog, Gege, a thumbs up right then and there.
Absolutely not.
