Who let him join the Sword Sect?!-Chapter 786 - 401: Some people are still alive, but actually already dead_3
"Because it's too ordinary, I can eat it anytime."
"But if you place a box on the beam, without directly telling me what's in it, and let it emit a fragrance I can't resist, then even if I have to dismantle the house, I have to know what's inside."
"So, if you ask me, just go straight to the point."
Li finished her apple, wiped her hands on Zhang Ze's shoulder, then jumped onto the table and picked up a second apple.
"Very clever, my Li." Zhang Ze encouraged, then idly asked, "By the way, what's the scent you can't resist? Tell me, and I'll reward you tonight."
Li started listing dish names while counting on her fingers...
Just as Li was about to start reciting the Sword Sect's weaponry catalog, Zhang Ze raised his hand to stop her.
"Why don't you just tell me which scent you can refuse."
This time Li answered concisely, "Apple, I don't like eating apples."
As she said this, Li picked up the last apple from the fruit plate and shoved it into her mouth.
Zhang Ze, "This is what you call not liking?"
"Not liking is not liking, but eating is eating, a dragon shouldn't waste food."
After saying that, Li also shoved the fruit plate into her mouth.
...
While Zhang Ze and Li were pondering how to change the bait and set the trap again to catch this cunning fish, the fish wasn't as complicated as they thought.
Spirit Deer Valley.
Li Yueqi was reading a book.
The book title: "How to Raise a Dragon"
This book was pulled from the Dragon Tiger Mountain library; it was pressed beneath the book "Dragon Slaying Technique." After confirming there wasn't a third book titled "Braised Dragon," she borrowed this one.
The newly hatched little tyrannosaurus had been growing rapidly lately. It's at a crucial stage for developing morality, intelligence, physical fitness, beauty, and work ethic. To prevent it from becoming purely a glutton like Li, or being prematurely aged by the giant tortoise Zhu Luo, Li Yueqi took on the challenging task of raising it.
Right as she was studying important childcare knowledge and taking reading notes, a commotion suddenly erupted outside the house.
Lions roared, elephants bellowed, and bears boxed, mixed with the parrot's cheerleading curses adding buffs.
"Hey, where's this stinky beggar from, do you even know where this is? Can you come here?"
To be honest, that parrot was a bit annoying.
Li Yueqi picked up a pen holder from the table and threw it out the window, capping the parrot's head to make it shut up and crash. Only then did she push open the door and go out.
"What's going on?"
Seeing Li Yueqi come out, a new Celestial Sect exchange student hurried over and whispered, "Senior sister, we caught a spy trying to force their way into Spirit Deer Valley."
Li Yueqi, "A spy?"
The exchange student nodded, "Yes, a spy, using a forged key. After being caught, that person was extremely arrogant, resisting law enforcement, and even claiming to be your brother."
Li Yueqi, "Brother? I don't have... Wait, I think I do have a brother."
Li Yueqi did have a brother named Li Jue, a real brotherly relationship since childhood.
Li Jue was someone who wouldn't act like a proper young master. Instead, he gambled compulsively at the Qinghe Association. After losing everything, to avoid being dealt with by Li Yueqi, he ran off in the middle of the night, saying he was going to West Continent to find their mother.
Over a year passed without his return; if it went much longer, Li Yueqi might have really forgotten about him.
These exchange students were new, and most were Celestial Sect disciples, so it was normal for them not to know about this.
As for forcibly entering...
After the Cat Lady racing incident, Spirit Deer Valley upgraded and reformed its entire security system, and Li Jue triggered an alarm using the pass from two years ago, which was also normal.
Speaking of, why did this guy come back?
"I do indeed have a brother. Let them move aside so I can recognize him. If not, we'll bury him alive," Li Yueqi said.
Upon receiving the order, the large spirit beasts stacked like an Arhat slowly got up, revealing the heap of people underneath.
Getting closer, Li Yueqi indeed found the person familiar.
The heap was dressed in old, tattered black clothes, with scruffy facial hair and tanned skin. The straw hat on the head had long been crushed into powder. Eyes tightly shut, he lay facing the sky.
He looked wild and untamed, but the facial features and bone structure were indeed that of her brother.
"Oi! Wake up!" Li Yueqi disdainfully nudged Li Jue's arm with her toe, but Li Jue didn't react at all.
Seeing that this person seemed to be the senior sister's brother, the surrounding exchange students showed alarming expressions.
Could he have been crushed to death...
Li Yueqi waved her hand to calm them down, then nudged him twice more. When Li Jue still didn't wake, she turned to the lone tusked white elephant that had put in the most effort stacking on him.
Li Yueqi, "Have you eaten today?"
White Elephant, "Yes."
Li Yueqi, "Good, come here and relieve yourself on his face, wet or dry, doesn't matter."
White Elephant, "Understood!"
As soon as the words were out, before the white elephant could step forward, the supposedly dead-acting Li Jue sprang up.
"Sis, sis, let's talk this out, no need for that."
Ignoring her shameless brother, Li Yueqi turned to the spirit beasts and exchange students, "You all may leave now. I have a family matter to discuss with him. Don't worry about his revenge; if he tries anything, I'll handle it myself."
Li Jue, "..."
After everyone left, with only the siblings remaining in the small square, Li Yueqi frowned and asked, "Where did you run off to, and why do you look like this?"
Li Jue, mischievous, stepped forward a couple of times. His delight and smugness were palpable.
"Stay away from me; don't come within three meters of me. You stink, just stand there and speak," Li Yueqi pointed at Li Jue.
Li Jue chuckled foolishly, then stood still and cupped his hands to project his voice, "Sis, I'm invincible now. I stumbled upon treasure."
Li Yueqi, "Treasure? What treasure? Did you find a nugget of gold?"
"More precious than that. I got a great opportunity!"
"Opportunity?" Li Yueqi looked skeptically at her brother, who resembled a Wild Person.
Li Jue ignored his sister's skeptical gaze and grinned crookedly like the Dragon King.
"Heaven's secrets cannot be divulged."
Recently, he started hearing a voice that gave him three pieces of information daily.
At first, he didn't personally take risks, instead sending his spirit pet Bai Xiao to scout out twice. Once he confirmed the information was accurate and posed no danger, he realized this was likely the legendary opportunity.
So, he began scheming...
Having been a young master, many things didn't matter to Li Jue.
So, all the information that he didn't care about, he sold off, making a profit as a middleman, and was happily making money.
Just waiting for the information to upgrade, so he could personally take on something big.
"Sis, your brother is no longer the same, from now on, call me the Protagonist of East Continent.
"What Lin Feng, Zhang Ze, they will all eventually be defeated by me. Their end point will be the beginning of meeting me."
Li Jue wore a lonely expert look, gazing up at the sky, completely ignoring the way his sister was looking at him like he was a fool...
——Lonely Expert's Divider——
Thousand Mechanism Pavilion.
Zhang Ze and Li were still discussing how to distribute tasks.
Suddenly, a small walnut by his hand buzzed. Zhang Ze picked it up and saw it was a message from Li Yueqi.
[Li Yueqi: Do you believe me?]
[Zhang Ze: Of course... What's not to believe, what's up?]
[Li Yueqi: That's good. I'll help you find your number 09 Star God. I'll issue the task for you. In three days, no more than four, I'll make sure to help you find the person.]
[Zhang Ze: Why does it take four days?]
[Li Yueqi: Over here at Spirit Deer Valley, the elephants have been doing a lot, and we're short on dung shovelers.]
[Zhang Ze: ?]
