Lethal Stunner: Kicking Off with Five Beast Husbands
Chapter 342: You’re Taking My Treasure
CHAPTER 342: CHAPTER 342: YOU’RE TAKING MY TREASURE
"Follow him." Li pulled Jinsheng and pushed her into Que Zelian’s arms.
This action left not only Jinsheng, but even Que Zelian somewhat confused.
Is Li... being possessed?
"Huh?" Jinsheng looked confused.
Li smiled and nodded at her, "Follow him and seize the throne."
"Seize the throne?" Jinsheng asked in surprise, lowering her voice to whisper, "You mean the throne of the Cloud World?"
"Seize his throne." Li gently pinched one of Jinsheng’s fingers and pointed it towards Que Zelian.
"In the Cloud World, his superpower is more advantageous."
"Just let him vie for control over the Cloud World. Once he gets it, have him pass it on to you." Li suggested to Jinsheng.
"Did you see in your future memory that I became the Cloud Realm Master?" Que Zelian speculated on what memory Li might have seen.
Sure enough, Li nodded, "A minute as the Cloud Realm Master, does that count?"
"I am the next Cloud Realm Master." Jinsheng chimed in with a proud face.
"Yes, my darling is the next Cloud Realm Master." Li couldn’t resist while looking at Jinsheng’s triumphant smile and gently rubbed her cheek.
"Stop touching." Jinsheng quickly restrained his hand, "Don’t mess up my carefully crafted expression."
"What expression?" Li cupped her face, looking closely.
Aside from wanting to kiss her more the longer he looked,
He didn’t notice anything different from usual.
"The dignity of a Cloud Realm Master." Jinsheng straightened her face.
"Congratulations, Master! Long live the Master!" Xuan Jiu whispered in celebration, reminding Jinsheng, "Let’s be quietly happy for now. Once it’s settled and your status as Realm Master is confirmed, we’ll throw a grand banquet."
Jinsheng looked at Xuan Jiu, wagging a fox tail and giving her ideas, biting her lip to hold back a laugh.
"What are you laughing at?" Xuan Jiu asked, puzzled.
"I just... seeing you like this reminds me of an emperor’s sycophant." Jinsheng wasn’t going to say it, but Xuan Jiu tickled her.
She couldn’t hold it in, and with Xuan Jiu’s move, she completely caved.
"I’m not a dog. Even if I were, I’d be a fox’s leg." Xuan Jiu proclaimed proudly.
"Step aside." Li directed Xuan Jiu, "You’re responsible for entering Mo Jiao and Shi Xie’s Illusion Realm."
"Do I need to teach you how to handle opponents within the illusion?" Li asked coldly.
"And do I still have a part to play here?" Xuan Jiu feigned surprise, "I thought you’d cut my part entirely."
Li was busy, whereas in the past, he would have definitely debated with Xuan Jiu.
But today, he couldn’t even be bothered to respond to Xuan Jiu.
Instead, he pointed at Yu Yunxiao and Huaiqing, "You two are responsible for healing. Don’t let them actually kill anyone."
"Are you..." Huaiqing thought of the Cloud World competition rules, asking Li, "Not letting them go up further on the Cloud Platform, nor letting them die, choosing resurrection to climb the Cloud Ladder again?"
"Our strategy is to trap, not kill." Li was still keeping things mysterious.
The only one left without an assignment in the Beast Husband group was Chen Yunji, and he couldn’t keep silent anymore, "What about me?"
After speaking, Chen Yunji, his gaze obstructed by the white veil, looked towards Jinsheng’s direction.
He wanted more to act alongside Jinsheng.
But if cooperation this time ultimately led to Jinsheng becoming the Cloud Realm Master,
He was also willing to stay here as the muscle.
He’d knock out anyone that came.
Ensuring no one leaked through to interfere with Jinsheng’s competition.
"You’re on standby." Li arranged.
Chen Yunji’s face fell, instantly becoming unhappy.
"I want to contribute too." He spoke to Li, but his gaze was fixed on Jinsheng.
Everyone at home was working.
He wasn’t just there freeloading off the family.
He wanted to help Jinsheng too.
"You’ll be the mount." Li continued.
"Hmm?" This time Chen Yunji looked at him; even with the white veil, his gaze towards Li was still puzzled.
"Climbing the Cloud Ladder would just trap us. If you transform into beast form and fly, wouldn’t it take my darling straight to the top?" Li explained, on the way brainwashing him, "So you’re the mount."
"She’s my darling too." Chen Yunji had his own set of priorities, quickly walking to Jinsheng’s side, carefully tugging her sleeve, strongly reminding Li.
"So should I follow Que Zelian or Chen Yunji?" Jinsheng asked, enjoying her role as the prophecy conductor, addressing Li.
"It’s the fifth level now." Li thought about what he saw in his memory, "Once Que Zelian reaches the tenth level, have Chen Yunji take you directly to the tenth level."
"Trust me, there’s definitely no problem." Li assured Jinsheng, noticing when she wanted to read his mind.
Li flashed close, holding her tight, leaning slightly, and rubbing his head against her neck.
Softening his tone, he coaxed, "Don’t read my mind, okay? Please, my baby."
"I surely won’t deceive you like Que Zelian and Huaiqing."
"I can’t be at ease." Jinsheng said solemnly, "If this memory of yours has no issue, why are you afraid of me knowing?"
"I swear, my memory truly has no issues. I didn’t deceive you." Only when Li swore to Jinsheng did his finger stand upright correctly.
His red eyes firm, he met Jinsheng’s scrutinizing gaze without any guilt.
But due to the prediction deception incident with Huaiqing and Que Zelian, Jinsheng already had psychological shadows.
Afraid that these Beast Husbands were hiding news from her.
Just as she forcefully wanted to use mind-reading on Li,
Shi Xie suddenly spoke, "Female Master, do you remember when I first knew you from my perspective?"
"Back then, you also couldn’t tell me many things."
"I think now, this demon’s memory is something he can’t speak of, something you can see but shouldn’t see."
Can see because of Jinsheng’s mind-reading superpower, or more precisely due to the Unity Contract mind-reading, which can see through the rules into Li’s memory.
And shouldn’t see, Shi Xie guessed, because it was future memory.
At this moment, Li was essentially seeing the future, yet it was different from Huaiqing’s prophecy.
If Jinsheng forcibly read minds, it might harm herself.
Listening to Shi Xie’s explanation, the bystander Lou Yan Zhi chimed in, "The secrets of heaven are not to be disclosed; knowing too much can backfire on the one who knows."
"It seems Li wasn’t lying to you." Lou Yan Zhi offered, "Maybe this memory he knows is harmless, but once you know it, it’s detrimental to you."
"That’s exactly what he meant. I really didn’t lie to you." Li held Jinsheng’s hand, genuinely wronged this time.
After speaking, he glared fiercely at Que Zelian and Huaiqing.
Because of that sheep and that bird,
He was now implicated and suspected by Jinsheng.
Que Zelian and Huaiqing were quite embarrassed at the moment, and a bit guilty as well.
They knew their prediction deception of Jinsheng would be flogged.
But they hadn’t expected it would be so frequent.
Under Li’s appeasement, Jinsheng also chose to believe him.
"Do I have an assignment?" Seeing everyone had tasks, Lou Yan Zhi joined in enthusiastically.
