Back in the Elder Palace, Yue Guan and Gui Mei sat, one on a chair, the other leaning against the wall, their expressions grim, even describable as dark.
Bibi Dong, you've gone too far.
In terms of seniority, Gold Crocodile Douluo is a generation older than the High Priest Qian Daoliu; in terms of strength, he is second only to the High Priest, a Level 98 Titled Douluo.
Moreover, he often represents the High Priest, and even the entire Hall of Offerings.
Which of the seven Elder Priests in the Hall of Offerings isn't a peak Douluo above Level 96? Even Bibi Dong herself wouldn't dare to defy them, yet she wants them to risk their lives.
They are not afraid of death, and they are willing to die for Spirit Hall, but they are unwilling to die for the sake of that good-for-nothing, Yu Xiaogang.
The two of them had assisted Bibi Dong with all their heart for so many years, but now it seemed their value in Bibi Dong's eyes was even less than that of a Level 29 Spirit Grandmaster.
It was simply a huge joke, one that no one would believe if it were told.
Yue Guan looked at Gui Mei: "Whether we two can kill Li Qing is one thing, but even if we succeed, we won't be able to explain it to the Hall of Offerings."
Gui Mei asked: "What are you thinking?"
Yue Guan said: "We'll find the High Priest, explain the situation, and join the Hall of Offerings. Although our levels are a bit low, our Spirit Fusion Skill can make up for that gap."
Gui Mei asked again: "What if the High Priest doesn't agree?"
"Heh heh!"
Yue Guan sneered: "If he doesn't agree, then he wants us dead. If the Supreme Pontiff wants us dead, and the High Priest also wants us dead, then what is there left to be nostalgic about in this Spirit Hall?"
"In that case, we might as well just leave."
Gui Mei shook his head and continued: "The Second Priest threatened our lives as soon as he opened his mouth, and Bibi Dong didn't care about our lives at all. Our loyalty is worthless."
"If we continue to stay, death is only a matter of time."
"What have we gained by risking our lives for Spirit Hall all these years? Nothing. Everything we owed has been repaid, and it's time to live for ourselves."
Dugu Yan and Ning Rongrong stealthily arrived outside Li Qing's room, carefully pressing their ears against the door.
They listened intently to the sounds inside the room.
Ning Rongrong looked at Dugu Yan, as if asking: "Why is there no sound?"
Dugu Yan rolled her eyes, as if saying: "Who should I ask if you ask me? It probably hasn't started yet, let's wait a bit longer, it should be soon."
The two of them didn't come to eavesdrop on a whim.
They knew what Li Qing used to be like; he wished he could spend every minute and second on cultivation. But ever since he moved to Ning Clan Castle, he changed.
Even someone like Li Qing had succumbed; was that kind of thing really that enjoyable?
A few days ago, the two of them were just curious, but today, seeing the couple return to their room as soon as they came back, Dugu Yan suddenly couldn't resist her curiosity.
Dugu Yan proposed, and Ning Rongrong didn't refuse; the two hit it off immediately.
They wanted to see what was going on.
Li Qing inside the room sensed the two girls the moment they arrived and immediately stopped all movements, preparing to open the door, but Ye Lingling pulled him back.
Li Qing: "???"
Before Li Qing could ask, Ye Lingling directly gave him a passionate kiss, blocking all the words that were already at the tip of his tongue, and then she directly pushed him down.
Outside the door.
Dugu Yan and Ning Rongrong's breathing gradually became heavy, and their little faces became increasingly flushed and hot, but neither Dugu Yan nor Ning Rongrong had any intention of leaving.
Dugu Yan poked Ning Rongrong, scaring the latter into trembling all over, her face growing even redder.
"What are you doing?"
Ning Rongrong glared at her unhappily, lowering her voice to ask softly.
Dugu Yan asked: "Is it that exaggerated?"
"You ask me, who should I ask? If you want to know, just push the door open and look!" Ning Rongrong, as if flustered, ran away after saying the next sentence.
Dugu Yan: "???"
No, wasn't I just asking a question? Why is her reaction so big?
Dugu Yan pursed her lips, seeing that Ning Rongrong had run off, she didn't dare to continue listening either, otherwise, if Li Qing caught her, how could she face them?
"Whew…"
After Ning Rongrong ran back to her room, she quickly closed the door, then leaned against it and let out a heavy sigh, closing her eyes as if with a hint of lingering taste.
After recovering, she walked into the bathroom.
Afterward.
Looking at Ye Lingling leaning in his arms, Li Qing slapped her hard, making the latter cry out in pain, and then she bit his arm.
"Hiss!"
Damn, this tigress, her bite is really fierce.
"What are you doing?"
Ye Lengleng glared at him unhappily: "Just tell me, was it exciting or not?"
"Exciting!"
Li Qing said subconsciously.
Ye Lengleng rolled her eyes: "Then that's that."
"But—"
Ye Lingling interrupted: "There's nothing to 'but' about. It's going to happen sooner or later anyway; let them get used to it first."
Li Qing: "....."
He wasn't sure about Dugu Yan, but he knew Ning Rongrong. However, because of her identity, Li Qing didn't dare to overly provoke her.
After all, his safety still depended on the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Having three wives and four concubines might not be uncommon in this World, but it depended on the person. How could the little princess of the dignified Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School share a husband with other women?
Without understanding Ning Fengzhi's attitude, Li Qing currently didn't dare to act recklessly.
However, Ye Lengleng's attitude was quite unexpected to Li Qing. He used to think she was just talking, or even testing him.
He didn't expect her to actually go through with it.
But, it has to be said, feudal society was good. If this were on Earth, perhaps some people could do it, but he definitely wouldn't be among them.
"But!"
Ye Lengleng suddenly sat up, all her beauty fully displayed before Li Qing, and she looked at him with a serious expression.
"Only those two."
She could accept Dugu Yan and Ye Lengleng because they had extraordinary backgrounds and could bring great help to Li Qing. Ordinary women were not qualified to make her compromise.
Li Qing smiled and pulled her into his arms, only acquiescing without making any promises.
As a man, one must be responsible for one's words. Once a promise is made, it must be fulfilled. If one is unsure if they can do it, then don't make promises lightly.
And Li Qing didn't know if he could do it, so he didn't dare to make a promise.
"Hiss!"
Li Qing suddenly felt a twisting pain in his waist. He gently pushed Ye Lingling away, rubbed the soft flesh that she had pinched red, and looked at her with some confusion.
"What are you doing?"
"Hmph!"
Ye Lingling didn't explain, just snorted coldly, then leaned back into his arms.
In her opinion, acquiescence meant disagreement. He definitely wouldn't be too well-behaved in the future; this wasn't hard to see from the special projects at Tiangshang Renjian Entertainment City.
What decent person would come up with so many tricks? What kind of good man could come up with so many tricks?
During dinner, Li Qing was composed, and Ye Lingling's expression was normal. On the other hand, Dugu Yan and Ning Rongrong's faces turned as red as a monkey's butt the moment they saw the two of them.
They didn't dare to meet their gaze at all.
