Qian Qi was dragged away by Xi Pingzhe, and Xu Jinghong and Sheng Qing, who were waiting nearby, followed.
Xi Pingzhe wanted to lead Qian Qi to the Beast Taming Departnt, but halfway there, Zhang Feng intercepted them.
"Where are you taking our Sect Leader?" Zhang Feng asked with a hint of caution, staring at Xi Pingzhe as if he were so sort of thief.
Xi Pingzhe couldn’t be bothered to deal with Zhang Feng, "Who are you to question where I’m taking my teacher?"
"This is our Sect Leader, the boss of our Magic Plant Departnt, shouldn’t I care?" Zhang Feng retorted.
"Well, she’s my teacher too!" Xi Pingzhe said proudly.
"She’s like half my teacher too!"
"Yours is only half! Mine is the whole!"
"Then I’m half a teacher plus the whole Sect Leader!"
"You! What’s so great about that? I can do anything for my teacher, can you!" Xi Pingzhe defiantly replied.
"Nonsense, of course I can too!"
"Well, I’m really rich!" Xi Pingzhe shouted, stretching his neck.
"I’m more obedient than you! I’m the Sect Leader’s most reliable assistant! The sturdiest support!" Zhang Feng also shouted.
"Well, I can ta beasts!"
"I can ta beasts too! I can also ta plants! I can grow magic plants! Can you grow magic plants?" Zhang Feng said smugly.
"I... I, I," Xi Pingzhe indeed couldn’t grow magic plants, he struggled for a while and finally red-eyed exclaid, "I dare to eat crap, do you dare?"
Zhang Feng sneered, "That’s ridiculous! Who doesn’t dare! I dare too!"
Sheng Qing, who had been quietly observing the two, couldn’t help but chi in, "I dare too!"
As a friend of Qiqi, she absolutely couldn’t fall behind so disciples and subordinates of Qiqi!
Xu Jinghong looked at Sheng Qing with absolute horror.
Wait, are you all out of your minds? Why are you competing over these things?
Is this sothing people should compete over?
Is it possible I’m the only normal person in this world?
On the side, Qian Qi clapped in amazent, "You’re all so impressive, I wouldn’t dare eat crap."
System: [Yes, you wouldn’t dare eat crap, but you dare to squirt it from soone’s rear end.]
Qian Qi: Well, it squirted from yours.
System: ...[That was my mouth! My mouth!]
Qian Qi: Money is like dung, you swallow and spit out money, that makes it a rear end.
System: [Ahhhh shut up!]
...
With the arrival of the Seven Great Families’ armies, everyone gathered, and the two large faculties began grandly entering the Red Grain Temple instance.
Su Ang glanced at the Si Family Army behind them, confirming he didn’t see Sikong Wang. He then asked Qian Qi, "Did you say Sikong Wang would co too?"
"Hm? Didn’t you know?" Qian Qi asked puzzledly, "He planned to lead the army but got dragged away by his dad for devil training."
So that’s how it is.
Su Ang tilted his head, his lips slightly curling.
Just about to fish out so snacks from his pocket to share, Xi Ye ca over and hooked an arm around his shoulder, "Buddy, want to team up with later? Haven’t tackled a B-level dungeon in a while, with us, it’d be an absolute smackdown!"
Su Ang brushed off his hand, "Get back to your spot."
"No way no way~" The blue-haired youth deliberately squeezed his voice, yet still had a laid-back and free posturing, "It’s so boring over there, I ca to hang out with you guys."
After speaking, he peeked over Su Ang’s head at Qian Qi, grinning, "Oh, Qian, didn’t you want to ask sothing earlier?"
"Oh, I wanted to know if your hair is dyed or naturally blue," Qian Qi quickly responded, seemingly worried soone might interrupt.
"Hair?" Xi Ye fiddled with his crystal blue strands, then chuckled inexplicably, "Natural, my mother’s blue-haired too, I take after her."
Xi Pingzhe, standing nearby, slightly narrowed his eyes, then deliberately shifted his gaze away, acting nonchalant.
Qian Qi watched with so envy, after all, Xi Ye’s hair color was stunningly beautiful, catching the sunlight and sparkling like a shimring lake, impossible to look away from.
Rubbing his own sowhat malnourished head of hair, Qian Qi earnestly asked, "Xi Ye, have you considered growing long hair? I’d love to buy so of yours..."
"Oh? You like it?" Xi Ye raised an eyebrow, this ti bypassing Su Ang and standing between the two, lowering his head, "Want to give it a feel? It’s got great texture~"
Xi Ye has always been carefree and uninhibited, attracting won yet remaining untouched, behaving with great abandon. Su Ang frowned slightly, wanting to intervene.
But seeing Qian Qi looking so enthusiastic, he touched his hair, feeling a bit peculiar.
Why does she never touch his hair?
Is it because silver hair is too uninteresting and she doesn’t like it?
Perhaps, he should dye his hair? What color would be good? A lavish crystal blue like Xi Ye’s?
As he was thinking, Moyu sneakily landed on his shoulder.
"Buddy," Moyu whispered mysteriously in his ear, "do you want that blue-haired guy to stay away from our Contractor?"
The silver-haired youth glanced at Moyu, thought for a mont, and said, "You have a plan?"
Moyu deliberately glanced at the luxurious watch on his wrist and coughed, "You know what I an..."
Su Ang imdiately took off the watch and handed it to Moyu.
Moyu swallowed it in one gulp and flew straight to Qian Qi, eagerly offering advice, "Contractor, why bother waiting for his hair to grow long? I can just curse him bald, and all his hair will fall out!"
"By then, as he walks, you can pick it up behind him—for free der!"
Xi Ye: !!!
Hey! We’re not that close, and making jokes like this is too much!
Moyu looked very serious: Who’s joking with you? Do I look like I’m joking with you!
"Ahem, well, I just rembered sothing I need to do, so I’ll head back first." Xi Ye turned to Su Ang and said, then hurriedly ran over to the Su Family Army.
His steps had a slight feel of a hasty retreat.
Su Ang raised an eyebrow.
Moyu raised its wings and gave him a thumbs-up gesture.
Qian Qi, unable to touch Xi Ye’s hair, sighed in regret, then turned to admonish Moyu, "Moyu, we can’t just curse people bald for personal gain, you know?"
Moyu asked seriously, "What if it’s for multiple self-interests?"
Contractor’s, yours, Su Ang’s, and Er Ya’s interests—are four self-interests!
Qian Qi: ...
Qian Qi: "Go play with your wife!"
Moyu, serious-faced: "Contractor, you got triggered."
"Sect Leader, we’ve found the Phoenix Tail Bamboo Forest!" Zhang Feng, who was looking for magical plants up front, waved over and shouted, "Co take a look!"
The leaves of the Phoenix Tail Bamboo are key materials for the Fla Dog to evolve to B-level. Qian Qi, with Moyu, rushed to the front to confirm, "It really is B-level Phoenix Tail Bamboo."
Several Family Army commanders ca over, and Xi Ye asked, "Should we pull it out completely?"
The entirely red Phoenix Tail Bamboo had distinct joints, shaped like a phoenix’s tail, growing into a semicircle from left to right, with faint red flas burning at the top, emitting high temperatures that made approaching uncomfortable.
And at the joints of the bamboo, there grew dark red leaves, scarce on each Phoenix Tail Bamboo, seemingly quite rare.
Qian Qi only needed these leaves.
Phoenix Tail Bamboo doesn’t grow easily; they need to be planted in clusters to support each other to survive. Pulling them out completely would an the extinction of this bamboo forest, and they’d have to find another to pick leaves later.
Qian Qi waved a hand, "You don’t need to worry about this; you just need to ensure the students’ safety."
The several commanders exchanged looks.
They were the best commanders of the Seven Great Families, practically the second-in-command of the Family Army. This ti, going to a B-level dungeon and having to follow a female student, to be honest, they were reluctant.
But they ca this ti to contract a B-level Magical Beast, and to do that, they had to rely on Qian Qi, so they reluctantly bowed their heads to assist.
But unexpectedly, Qian Qi seed sowhat disdainful of them, not planning to use their help.
In that case, it made things simpler. Just not sure how she planned to get what she wanted from this large segnt of B-level Phoenix Tail Bamboo without them stepping in.
Probably would take a long ti.
These battle-hardened individuals felt scornful. To them, bringing a bunch of rookie students to train in a B-level dungeon, and even planning to go to an A-level dungeon, seed utterly ridiculous and foolish.
They wondered what Principal Zheng was thinking, actually approving it. Perhaps he’s getting old and losing his wits.
Just as they folded their arms, ready to watch, Qian Qi rubbed her hands together, eyes flashing with a familiar look.
Magic Plant Departnt students noticed and all stepped back.
They were well acquainted with this look, knowing she was about to do so chaotic stuff again.
