"Hehe, Lin Xiuyai, are you jealous, envious, and resentful?"
Lin Yan laughed as he teased him, his hands tucked into his pockets.
By now, Lin Yan had also reached the Dou Zong realm.
It was not particularly high, but it was not bad either.
Lin Xiuyai and Liu Qing were roughly at the same level.
Without any surprises, the greatest achievement of their lives would probably be reaching Dou Zun.

This world had always been this cruel.
"Of course he's jealous. This guy likes showing off too, but compared to Yunxiao, he's still far behind."

"Senior Brother Liu Qing is right. When it comes to attracting women, if Yunxiao calls himself second, no one would dare call themselves first."
Wu Hao laughed as well.
