"Ah, you Humans are such a hassle!"
"You take so long just to recover from a fight. If this had happened in Yanfu, you'd have been butchered eight hundred times by now."
Qing Lian irritably tugged at her hair like an irascible little girl. Just then, Xiao Guizhi ran over and opened a lunchbox, revealing a golden-brown roasted chicken leg inside.

Luo Yan's heart stirred, and he asked, "The Kui Dou Squad?"
Chu Hao nodded. "That's right."
Qing Lian looked over with her mouth glistening with grease. "Kid, you know them?"
"Their captain can really turn your mecha into a deity for a limited time, just like that Bai girl?"

Qing Lian let out a breath. "Then I'm relieved."
Seeing her expression, Luo Yan knew she had misunderstood.
Although Shi Beiluo could also activate Holy Descent, there was still a considerable gap
