Councilor's Challenge

The group arrived at the spot where Little Wolf was trapped. Under the electric net, Little Wolf saw Xue Xi arrive and stood up, wanting to pounce over, but ended up being shocked back to the ground. Xue Xi immediately backhanded Venina, who was controlling the electric net, across the face.

"I've already come all this way, and you're still shocking my pet right in front of me? Are you tired of living? Do you still want to complete this trade or not? Huh?"

Li Yao hurriedly held back the venomous-looking Venina, his facial muscles twitching as he squeezed out a few words through his teeth: "Hurry up, don't forget, the bomb."

Xue Xi pulled out the recipe she had written on the way and tossed it to them. Li Yao hurriedly began to examine the recipe, while Venina stared at Xue Xi with vicious intensity, clutching the bomb remote control in her hand to prevent her from taking the opportunity to save Little Wolf.

For a moment, the scene fell silent, and no one noticed Luo Feng quietly disappearing.

Luo Feng, who had flown underground to burrow, held the black pot from Xue Xi's head and practiced holding it a few times, marveling at the magic of Xue Xi's spatial equipment: At first, I really thought it was just a black baseball cap, but it turns out to be this magical pot. The space inside is so large; I have to get one in the future. It's too convenient.

He channeled his spiritual energy to drive his flying knives upward to drill through. With a pop, Luo Feng jumped out and hid behind the wolf. He manifested the Universe Pot in his hand and covered the unconscious Little Wolf with it, channeling his spiritual energy: "Collect!" In an instant, the massive Silver Moon Fierce Wolf inside the electric net vanished, leaving behind only a pitch-black, deep hole.

Receiving the message transmitted by Luo Feng's spiritual energy, Xue Xi finally set her mind at ease. She fixed her eyes on Venina, who was guarding against her, and the corners of her mouth slowly curled into a dangerous arc.

Venina felt a tremor in her heart; the heavy slap from earlier had left her with a bit of a shadow, and she asked indignantly, "What are you laughing at?"

Li Yao, standing beside her, also looked up. After studying it for a long time, no matter how he looked at it, it was just an ordinary recipe for brewing wine, and he was just about to question her.

Xue Xi twisted her neck, feeling the combat buff still active in her body, and said in a tone of feigned regret: "Sigh, you two, why couldn't you just do something else? You had to go and play the villain. I'm not a bloodthirsty person, but if you insist on forcing me to take this step, then fine, I'll grant your wish."

Li Yao sensed the killing intent in Xue Xi's eyes and immediately snatched the remote control from Venina's hand, making a move to press it: "Don't force me, or your beloved pet will be blown to smithereens! Also, Councilor Yan Hai is on our side. If you dare to kill us, you'll have hell to pay!"

Listening to Li Yao's childish threats, Xue Xi tilted her head and smiled: "Oh, really? Do you want to hear what you're saying?" Then, she shifted her feet, clearing the view behind her.

"H-how? When did... damn it, it was that spiritual master kid, but how did he do it?" He pressed the detonator button a few times, refusing to give up, but naturally, there was no reaction at all. Li Yao was completely baffled; with his level of knowledge, he truly didn't understand that such a thing as spatial equipment existed in this world.

However, Xue Xi didn't have the leisure to explain anything to two dead people. Under the 10x attack bonus of the Lamb Paomo, she channeled her spiritual energy to drive the sharp Coiled Dragon Blade, which pierced directly through the head of Li Yao, who was encased in his Black God Suit.

The tall figure collapsed to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust. Venina's pupils constricted; she simply couldn't believe that the man who had been planning his retirement just half a day ago had just fallen right in front of her.

Tears streamed from her eyes, and Venina let out a shriek: "Yao!" Then she immediately ran to Li Yao's corpse and began to wail.

Feeling slightly uncomfortable, Xue Xi looked at the scene before her, speechless: "No, the way you're crying makes it look like I'm the villain. Forget it, I might as well let you two go together."

The kind-hearted Xue could not bear to see scenes of life-and-death separation, so she backhanded a blade, allowing the two to reunite underground.

Seeing that Xue Xi had dealt with the two, Luo Feng walked up to her holding the Universe Pot, looking at the slightly pale-faced Xue Xi: "Are you alright, Xue Xi? Here, Little Wolf is sleeping inside."

Xue Xi looked away to avoid the physiologically unsettling scene, reached out to take the Universe Pot, and checked on Little Wolf with concern. Seeing that it was only sleeping, she poured a basin of Highland Barley Wine for it before finally breathing a sigh of relief.

"I'm fine, just a little unaccustomed to it. By the way, thank you for notifying me in time; otherwise, Little Wolf would have been in danger."

Watching Xue Xi conjure water out of thin air to carefully wipe the Coiled Dragon Blade, Luo Feng also looked relieved: "It's a coincidence, really. On the way to get that Highland Barley Wine, I happened to see these two sneaking around, following Little Wolf from a distance. I kept an eye on them, but I didn't expect them to actually dare to make a move."

After speaking, he looked at the two corpses huddled together on the ground and frowned: "Will there be any trouble if these two are dead?"

Xue Xi shook her head: "I'm not sure, but let them come. I'll take on whatever tricks they have. I hate these guys who play dirty behind people's backs the most."

After tidying up the scene, the two returned in the direction of the restaurant. The place where Li Yao and Venina died was vast and silent, with only a satellite in space staring fixedly at this spot.
