This is Truly Over!
Hyotei closed her eyes in despair—since there's no way to salvage the situation, she might as well just give up completely. She
'd just wait to die…
Hyotei pursed her lips tightly, remaining silent.
Her cold, delicate face was filled with tragic resolve. She looked
completely resigned to her fate. Zhuge Lan found it somewhat amusing— this girl. Gone was her usual arrogant attitude, gone was that haughty, superior air. Now, this conflicted look was actually quite endearing. Zhuge Lan couldn't help but smile, trying her best to keep from laughing out loud. —Snow Empress, seeing this scene, finally breathed a sigh of relief. At least Zhuge Lan wasn't truly angry. She wouldn't be too harsh on Hyotei in the future. Of course, Zhuge Lan wasn't angry— as a comedian, she could cause trouble all day long without any worries, playing pranks on others and creating one amusement after another. It's safe to say he's offended a considerable number of people… If the complaints he's received could materialize, they'd probably surpass the entire Douluo Continent. Those who are overly concerned with others' opinions aren't good at entertaining—they could drive themselves crazy . Zhuge Lan, of course, wouldn't care about such things. After all, he'd overheard those Shrek Academy students complaining about him more than once or twice. Zhuge Lan didn't take it to heart, just laughing it off. Of course , whether he actually wrote it down or sought entertainment more frequently afterward, only a genius would know! But unfortunately, Ice Empress clearly didn't realize this. Her tightly closed eyes missed Zhuge Lan's fleeting smile. "Enough!" Zhuge Lan composed himself—he felt this was quite amusing. Looking at Ice Empress's long eyelashes trembling slightly in her closed eyes, it was clear that Ice Empress wasn't as nonchalant as she appeared. She was clearly still struggling internally. What a contradictory, proud, and conflicted girl. Sometimes, Zhuge Lan couldn't help but think about it. These soul beasts who had lived for hundreds of thousands of years were indeed a bit outrageous—their experience was clearly so rich. Although it was possible that due to their simple living environment, surrounded by only simple soul beasts, they hadn't encountered many ups and downs and hadn't had much contact with complex humans, they shouldn't be this stupid— the Ice Empress in front of her was one, and so was Xiao Wu before. One by one, they didn't seem like ancient relics who had lived for over 100,000 years—they were clearly just simple little girls. Not only simple , but also very naive and easily fooled… They were quite, quite interesting. Zhuge Lan smiled inwardly, then coldly said— "Don't play dead here, and don't say I didn't give you a chance, or that I'm stingy…" "Now, immediately explain to me what you meant by what you just said." "Remember, you only have one chance!" "No, I wasn't playing dead…" Her conflicted thoughts were interrupted. The Ice Empress quickly opened her eyes and smiled ingratiatingly at Zhuge Lan. —This utterly docile appearance . Where is even a trace of the once arrogant King of Soul Beasts? Of course, this is merely a facade . Ice Empress felt a surge of resentment and profound humiliation. When had she ever done anything so obsequious? Oh—Snow Empress certainly didn't count.
That was Bingdi's own choice; her current behavior towards Zhuge Lan was merely because she was subordinate to him.
This made Bingdi extremely displeased, and she inwardly complained—
"That despicable Zhuge Lan!"
"How dare he question me like that, completely disregarding me! He's so arrogant, so hateful!"
"Just you wait..."
"Once Xue'er and I become gods, you'll be useless then, and we'll definitely kick you aside!"
"No—"
"That's not enough! I'll rise up and make you suffer this humiliation too..."
[Emotional Points +660,000]
Although Bingdi's outward appearance was excellent,
the fleeting emotional points still betrayed her inner thoughts.
In fact, without the fluctuation of emotional points, Zhuge Lan wouldn't have been so foolish as to believe her.
—How could a soul beast as innocent as a blank sheet of paper dare to play tricks on the cunning Zhuge Lan?
Zhuge Lan was unsure whether to call her silly, naive, or actually quite clever…
"Since you don't want to pretend anymore, then explain yourself properly."
"I'm not some bad person!"
"By the way, Xue Di, come here for a second…"
"I just went through a big battle, and I'm a little tired now."
She casually pulled out a recliner.
Zhuge Lan leisurely lay down, took out drinks and snacks, and started eating.
Then she had Xue Di switch places with her to massage her shoulders.
Chun Chun just looked like she was watching a show—
Xue Di, on the other hand, didn't seem to mind.
She was very clear about her position; since she had already acknowledged Xue Di as her master,
she would definitely fulfill her requests.
Xue Di naturally went over to serve Zhuge Lan.
Although her movements were quite clumsy.
Given Xue Di's experience, she certainly hadn't done this kind of thing before.
Zhuge Lan didn't have any expectations; she just wanted to annoy the girl in front of her.
However,
clumsy as she was—
those cool little hands stroking her neck were actually quite comfortable.
Zhuge Lan hummed twice in satisfaction.
As for her purpose of annoying Xue Di?
Clearly, the target had been exceeded!
Hyotei was utterly speechless.
She stared blankly at Yuki's actions, watching her walk past and massage Zhuge Lan's shoulders.
She was completely stunned.
Even her earlier attempt to explain was forgotten; she just stood there, dumbfounded.
[Emotional Points +550,000]
How could this be?
She'd never done this to me before—
Hyotei lamented inwardly.
For countless years, Yuki had always been extremely cold and aloof in her presence.
Why was she acting so docile today?
Such gentle actions.
Hyotei's envy, jealousy, and hatred had reached their peak.
She wanted nothing more than to rush over and replace Zhuge Lan.
Especially since Zhuge Lan seemed unsatisfied.
Whether intentionally or not,
Zhuge Lan, thoroughly comfortable, kept shaking his head. Nodding—
his head tilted back,
seemingly taking advantage of Yuki .
He touched her…
almost touched her!
He was about to touch her.
Hyotei was on the verge of tears, her eyes constantly following Zhuge Lan's head as she shook it
back and forth .
She was terrified of directly touching Yuki-tei.
It could be said that
every time Zhuge Lan shook her head, she was challenging Hyotei's bottom line.
Each shake sent shivers down Hyotei's spine
—it was undoubtedly equivalent to dancing, even disco-dancing, on her minefield!
