Chapter 78 Bibi Dong's Visit! Jing Yuan's Strategic Planning!
"As for Jingliu..."
Jing Yuan paused, a hint of emotion flashing in his eyes.
"That is my master."
Upon hearing this, both Ice Empress and Snow Empress's hands trembled slightly.
General Jing Yuan's strength is unfathomable; they have experienced it firsthand.
How terrifying must someone be to be his master?
Qingque, on the other hand, seemed quite interested. She rested her chin on her hands, staring at the list of rewards on the screen with shining eyes.
"General, General, look at that reward!"
"Purify your inner demons, and there's also the 'Moonlit Death Realm' domain."
"This is fantastic news for Jingliu-neechan."
As Qingque spoke, she reached out to touch the cards.
"If the purification of inner demons is truly effective, wouldn't the demonic body of Jingliu-neechan be saved?"
"Then she won't have to be crazy all the time... Oh, I mean, she won't have to suffer from that mental confusion anymore."
Jing Yuan nodded slightly, a genuine smile appearing on his lips, a rare occurrence.
"Good."
"Master has been tormented by the demonic spirit for a long time, this is indeed a timely rain."
"It seems that the Heavenly Ranking has done a good thing after all."
Just as the group was talking.
Qingque's fingers were already gripping the mountain of cards.
The girl's lips curled up slightly, revealing a cute little tiger tooth.
An extremely profound fluctuation silently rippled from her fingertips.
That was the reward for sixth place on the Martial Soul Ranking—the Domain of Destiny.
On this small card table, Qingque is the master of destiny.
Even with a terrible hand, she can defy fate and change her destiny.
"Hey-hey."
Qingque chuckled inwardly.
Whatever you want, you'll get.
Get up!
Smack
She slammed the jade pendant heavily onto the table.
The crisp sound instantly drew everyone's attention back to the scene.
Qingque suddenly pushed down the wall of cards in front of her and jumped up from her chair in excitement.
"I won!"
"All suits, self-draw!"
"Give me the money, give me the money... No, we're not betting money on this!"
Ice Empress and Xue Di stared wide-eyed at the neatly arranged swastikas on the deck.
This girl's luck is just too good!
I just saw her playing her cards, how did she suddenly get a flush?
Jing Yuan looked at the hand of cards, shook his head helplessly, and let out a sigh.
"Bluebird..."
"You're not this hardworking when you're at work, but you're quite shrewd when you're playing cards."
"Speak, what do you want?"
Qingque put her hands on her hips, leaned forward, and moved close to Jing Yuan, her pretty face almost touching the tip of his nose.
"General, you must honor your bet."
"We had an agreement: if I win this big hand, you have to grant me one request."
Jing Yuan leaned back slightly, creating some distance between them.
"As long as it's not an unreasonable request like asking you to leave work early or for a promotion or raise, this general is willing to consider it."
Qingque pouted, her cheeks slightly flushed, but she boldly said:
"Who cares about a promotion? A promotion just means more work."
"I want..."
The girl rolled her eyes and pointed a finger at her cheek.
Give me a kiss.
Quiet.
The courtyard fell silent instantly.
Even the maid Tingyun couldn't help but cover her face with her fan, her shoulders trembling slightly.
Ice Empress and Xue Di looked at each other in bewilderment.
Are all human girls... no, are all immortal girls this bold?
Jing Yuan's smile froze for a moment.
He is a dignified General of Luofu and the master of Shence Mansion. If word gets out that he sold his body to lose a hand of cards, where will he put his face?
"Cough cough."
Jing Yuan cleared his throat, trying to bluff his way out.
"Qingque, let's change our request."
"Even if it's just letting you go to the library to pick out a few rare books, or giving you three days off, that would be fine."
Qingque persisted, pouting her little mouth high.
No, no!
"I want this one!"
"General, you're a grown man, you wouldn't be trying to renege on your promise, would you?"
"I don't know who said it just now, but a gentleman's word is as good as his bond."
Seeing Qingque's "I'll make a scene if you don't kiss me" attitude, Jing Yuan was also at a loss.
This girl seems lazy most of the time, but she can be quite troublesome when it really matters.
He turned and looked around.
Aside from the two "outsiders," the Ice Empress and the Snow Empress, only their confidants were present.
That's enough.
Jing Yuan sighed helplessly.
"This will not be repeated."
As he spoke.
He leaned slightly forward and lightly touched that face, full of collagen, like a dragonfly skimming the water.
The movement was extremely fast, separating in an instant.
"Is that enough?"
Jing Yuan sat up straight again, picked up his teacup, took a sip, and tried to hide his embarrassment.
Qingque covered the spot where she had been kissed, her whole body beaming as if she had eaten honey, her eyes crinkling into two crescent moons with laughter.
"Hehe, the general is the best!"
"This was given to me by the general himself, I'm going to go three days without washing my face!"
The Ice Empress and the Snow Empress, who were standing to the side, watched this scene with a strange glint in their eyes.
Especially Xue Di.
She was originally the ruler of the far north, and although she appeared aloof, she was actually extremely possessive.
Now that we've joined this Luofu Immortal Ship and are at this card table, we should naturally follow local customs.
Turn out to be...
You get this kind of reward for winning?
Xue Di gazed at Jing Yuan's handsome profile and secretly plotted in her heart.
This Qingque is just a little girl; she'd be happy with just a kiss.
If I win...
It's much more than just a kiss.
At the very least, I must make him accompany me to the clouds to watch the snow all night, and incidentally... do some more intimate things.
Ice Empress also bit her red lips, her emerald eyes blazing with fighting spirit.
At this card table, who's afraid of whom?
Once I've figured out the rules, I'll make sure this general loses everything, down to his underwear. What he does then will be entirely up to me.
"Again! Again!"
Qingque was in high spirits and was preparing to shuffle the cards to start the next round, pressing her advantage.
Just then.
A series of hurried and forceful footsteps broke the tranquility of the courtyard.
A fox-woman dressed in military uniform, looking heroic and spirited, strode in.
It was Yukong, the helmsman of the Luofu Immortal Ship.
With a solemn expression, Yukong walked up to Jing Yuan and bowed respectfully.
"General."
"Miss Bai Lu is back."
"There were two others traveling with them: Bibi Dong, the Pope of Spirit Hall of Douluo Continent, and her daughter Qian Renxue."
"I am currently waiting outside Shence Mansion."
Upon hearing this, Jing Yuan's previously lazy eyes lit up instantly.
He looked even happier than Qingque, who had just won the game.
It's here!
Our savior has arrived!
If the fight continues, surrounded by these women, we might lose some strange things.
Jing Yuan made a decisive move, immediately putting down the teacup in his hand and standing up smoothly and effortlessly.
He instantly exuded an aura of commanding authority.
"Since we have distinguished guests, let's end this game of cards here for today."
"To neglect our guests would be to break the etiquette of our Immortal Ship."
