THE DEMONIC KING CHASES HIS WIFE: THE REBELLIOUS GOOD-FOR-NOTHING MISS [1]

541-560

Chapter 541 - Operation to divide the loot (4)

Nangong Liuyun led Su Luo by the hand and swaggered, walking out.

Seeing that he had just dropped from the sky a moment ago to help her lift a siege, Su Luo acquiesced to his intimate actions.

After all, she had also promised him three months to foster their relationship. After three months, if it worked, then good, if not, then they broke up. Now, she needed to not be ill at ease about their relationship.

"Where are we going?" Seeing the well-behaved Dragon Scaled Horse, and the carriage stopped in front of Su Manor's gate, Su Luo, somewhat curiously, asked.

"Go to divide the loot." Nangong Liuyun, in a spoiling manner hooked Su Luo's charming nose which was like a snowy jade, with a smile on his face and his eyes looking at her.

"Divide the loot?" Su Luo pondered deeply for a moment and suddenly realized: "Has Beichen come back after victory in a single move?"

"It can barely be said like that, let's go. Once we get there, you will know." Nangong Liuyun said it ambiguously.

Su Luo heard his implication being as if this matter was not that simple. What matter was there that His Highness Prince Jin could not arrange the fairness of? The more Su Luo thought about it, the more curious she become.

The Dragon Scale Horse's speed was very fast, after many turns, it finally stopped in front of the doorway of a courtyard.

Nangong Liuyun tossed the reins to a servant, led Su Luo by the hand and walked directly inside.

Without being ordered, those servants would voluntarily take care of the Dragon Scaled Horse properly, not daring to show a thread of neglect.

The courtyard was huge with an irrigated rock garden, bridges and pavilions of a traditional Chinese garden. The courtyard was charmingly arranged irregularly, the major pathways were paved with limestone, while the smaller alleyways were cobblestoned, giving the entire courtyard an interesting and appealing charm.

Seeing Su Luo sizing up the surrounding environment with interest, Nangong Liuyun's eyes had a trace of yielding softness: "Do you like this courtyard?"

"Still alright." Su Luo nodded her head. Living in Su Manor was really stifling. In fact, she had wanted to move out a long time ago to separate herself from the foul atmosphere in Su Manor.

While Su Luo was walking, she also muttered: "If I had a similar courtyard, it might help me not notice the foul atmosphere of Su Manor."

With how intelligent Nangong Liuyun was, with one sentence, he was able to understand the connotation.

"This is the courtyard in Beichen's residence, also very ordinary. This king has a residence with a courtyard in the Southern Mountains that is much better than this one. Should we go take a look tomorrow?" A single man and a woman alone on a scenic tour was one of the best techniques to cultivate feelings.

A ruler on an isolated island with barren hills, not meeting any delegations, then wouldn't Luo girls feelings for him increase daily? The most ideal place must be mysterious and subtle.

How could Su Luo even contemplate what Nangong Liuyun was thinking right now, so she nodded her head in satisfaction. "Sounds good."

Nangong Liuyun raised an eye, looking pleased with himself, and led Su Luo by the hand to walk inside.

While Nangong Liuyun was walking with Su Luo, at the same time, he also told her the actual situation.

As it turned out, that day, Beichen Ying really did bring a group of military subordinates to besiege the Dragon Gang of the Eastern Sea, but their luck was not so good.

Just when they were on the verge of success, they discovered that attacking the Dragon Gang of the Eastern Sea, besides them, there were another group.

This was not a stranger, but was actually the Jade Lake's Li family's people who were looking for Li Aotian but somehow found the Dragon Gang of the Eastern Sea, and thereupon, participated in this fiery battle.

This way, the fruits of this battle must be shared, although Beichen Ying's heart was extremely unreconciled with this result.

If it was any other family, then fine, but it just so happened to be Jade Lake's Li family. Also, the one leading was actually Li family's eldest son, Li Aoqiong.

Li Aoqiong, the top figure in Li family's third generation. His conduct was arrogant and cold, thought highly of himself and always didn't see eye-to-eye with Beichen Ying's group. As a result, this way, Beichen Ying's heart felt even more sullen.

In the front was the great hall, Nangong Liuyun led Su Luo by the hand and slowly entered. Having just taken one step inside, he became the focus of everyone present.

On both sides of a long table, was separated the two factions.

Beichen's group and the Jade Lake's group.

Once Beichen Ying saw Nangong Liuyun, his eyes immediately brightened. When he saw Su Luo, again, both eyes became so bright, like huge searchlights.

Chapter 542 - Operation to divide the loot (5)

He was just about to go up and welcome them, but someone was a step ahead of him and threw him behind.

Lan Xuan quickly rushed towards Su Luo, shouting excitedly: "Sister-in-law, you finally came, we waited for you until exhaustion. How we looked forward to seeing you and finally, you came."

Lan Xuan stretched out both hands to grab Su Luo, just about to cry thousands of tears to her. However, before he even got close to Su Luo, Nangong Liuyun had already picked him up and tossed him aside as if tossing out the garbage.

Anye Ming had his fist placed by the side of his lips, pursing his lips into a smile. He pulled Lan Xuan away: "Don't know to avoid a taboo, well-deserved."

Lan Xuan spread out his mouth and grinned towards Su Luo, revealing snow-white. cute canine teeth: "Sister-in-law, today, we are completely depending on you, completely depending on you ah! Our harvest is simply too big!"

Su Luo's beautiful, star-like eyes were confused and innocent, she didn't understand why these people was clearly awaiting her, what for? Wasn't she here just as a spectator? Could it be they were waiting for her to come and host this event?

"Scoff--you guys were stalling for time, just to wait for her?" The corner of Li Aoqiong's mouth rose in disdain, freely pointing at Su Luo.

Li Aoqiong had mistakenly believed that they were stalling for time to wait for the King of Crystal Stones to arrive. He never expected that after waiting for so long, it was for a still-wet-behind-the-ears, loathsome girl.

After the trip to Amethyst Fish Palace, after the trio, with Beichen Ying among them, had suffered a series of losses, they finally realized one thing. Su Luo, this girl, was definitely the illegitimate daughter of the goddess of fortune. They completely had no need to question this point, because Su Luo's luck was simply so good as to defy the natural order.

This time, the operation to divide the loot involved a large element of luck, therefore, the three didn't even need to think and directly aimed their gazes towards Su Luo. It was so much so that this time, they even tossed Nangong Liuyun, who they always placed high hopes on, to the back of their mind.

Hearing Li Aoqiong's taunting and disdainful words, the three had identical expressions of about to explode from anger.

Beichen Ying angrily pointed at Li Aoqiong: "What's wrong with her? Her luck, compared to yours, is a hundred, no, a thousand times better! Don't you get wild on me!"

Lan Xuan coldly snorted a few times: "Just you wait, when the time comes that you lose until you piss in your pants in terror, don't say we didn't warn you."

Anye Ming also followed along to create more trouble in a calm and composed manner with both hands behind his back. He raised his chin and leisurely said: "Now, there is still time for you to propose a replacement for your candidate."

Li Aoqiong (1), by his name, you would know that he was arrogant and proud to the sky. He would turn his nose high to the sky, showing disdain, even the heavens were unworthy in his eyes, let alone a little girl?

One could only see Li Aoqiong give a cold, sinister smile: "These years, your levels keep growing but the intelligence has gotten lower. To also revere a loathsome girl to this extent, you guys are not afraid of how embarrassing this looks."

Nangong Liuyun led Su Luo by the hand and walked to stand in front of him. The corner of his mouth hooked into a nefariously charming smile, while he cast sidelong glances at Li Aoqiong: "What? Not convinced by the woman this king had selected?"

Nangong Liuyun was eager for the entire world to know that Su Luo was the person he fancied. He was making it impossible for her to avoid this, and at the same time, also let everyone clearly see that no one was allowed to lust after his, Nangong Liuyun's, woman.

Li Aoqiong's brows knotted slightly, suddenly, he was unhappy.

"Nangong Liuyun, are you being serious?" Li Aoqiong's eyes that were like millennium-year-old ice, stared fixedly at Nangong Liuyun. He was so furiously indignant that he nearly spit out fire.

When Yaoyao had tearfully complained that Nangong Liuyun had a new flame, he was skeptical. When Beichen and his group called that girl Sister-in-law, he did not accept it as correct. Now, Nangong Liuyun admitted with his own words, how could this still be false?

Li Aoqiong's expression immediately condensed into frost, his complexion shrouded in a layer of cold ice. He immediately grabbed towards Nangong Liuyun. "Nangong Liuyun, you are indecisive, fickle and unfaithful! Doing this, where have you placed Yaoyao! Do you still place Jade Lake Palace in your eyes, still have the Li family in there?"

1) Li Aoqiong: The Ao character 傲 in English means arrogant/proud/unyielding. The Qiong character 穹 in English means the sky/dome/vault/something high up. Thus his name is literally arrogant to the sky.

Chapter 543 - Operation to divide the loot (6)

Nangong Liuyun was the son-in-law that the Jade Lake Palace had set their sights on. He was Yaoyao's chosen future husband, as her older brother, he had always looked upon this favorably. Now, it hadn't been that long, how could such a huge unexpectedly change occur?

Nangong Liuyun slapped away his claw, his indifferently cold eyes shooting towards him: "Indecisive, fickle and unfaithful? Who was this king indecisive about? Also, who am I fickle and unfaithful to? In front of my family's Luo girl's face, Li Aoqiong, you make it clear for this king!"

Nangong Liuyun cared about his own innocence in an unprecedented manner.

Any other matter that slandered him was fine, but with regards to his purity, this point, he must clarify. His Luo girl had always been the most small-minded, if this caused a misunderstanding, then these days of hard work would certainly be wasted.

Having heard what was said, Li Aoqiong was simply in disbelief. Following which, his rage rushed to his heart.

"Nangong Liuyun, do you dare swear on the heavens that your heart has never beat for Yaoyao? Do you dare swear on the heavens that you haven't let Yaoyao down?" Li Aoqiong gritted his teeth in rage, firmly glaring at Nangong Liuyun with a sinister gaze.

Jade Lake's Li family had all regarded Nangong Liuyun as a son-in-law. Now, could he actually speak these words out loud in front of everyone?

Unexpectedly, Nangong Liuyun, this bastard, really raised two fingers to swear an oath towards the heavens: "With the emperor of the heavens above and the deep earth below as witness, I, Nangong Liuyun, from the beginning to the end of life, will only like one person, Su Luo. My heart has never moved a trace with worldly intentions towards other women. If I were to violate this oath, I will immediately meet with a violent death!"

His white clothing danced elegantly, with his jet-black hair dropping down and drifting gracefully. It was casually tied up by a length of red silk. He was devilishly alluring, simply able to charm all living things.

He stood proudly, with an unyielding sharp edge in his pitch-black, arrogant eyes. His entire body gave off a noble air of arrogance that was insufferably haughty.

On that handsome face that could mesmerize all living things, it was overflowing with an extremely demonical, potent smile. Nevertheless, it carried an unshakable, lofty, determined and resoluteness manner.

This oath was also neat and tidy, not in the least sloppy or unclear. Simply so amazing as to make people slap the table and shout out praises.

Finished, he still had a smile on his face. His pupils lowered to gaze at Su Luo adoringly, his eyes overflowing with soft waves: "You see, even the oath is already made, and you still won't marry me?"

The majestic His Highness Prince Jin, countless people would revere and worship him. Everyone had guessed that he would inevitably break through to be an immortal, enabling him to live forever.

Such an outstanding His Highness Prince Jin would actually lower his voice and lofty air to a female who he still beseeched and couldn't get?

This was simply ridiculous, however, this matter really occurred just like this.

Li Aoqiong totally didn't expect that Nangong Liuyun would actually make the vow! From his understanding of Nangong Liuyun, it was impossible for him to do this.

From this, it could be seen that this girl truly occupied not a small part of his heart.

Li Aoqiong's sinister eyes stared at Su Luo, like a poisonous snake hidden in the underbrush, vicious and treacherous.

The Jade Lake's Li family's reputation...... was simply trampled on by Nangong Liuyun! He actually dared to do this!

Confronted with Nangong Liuyun's oath, if it was said that Su Luo's heart wasn't moved a thread, naturally, it was a lie. People were not plants, who could be so heartless?

Nangong Liuyun once again accurately touched upon Su Luo's character of amenable to soft coaxing and not forceful coercion. Bursts of soft waves continued to assail her, even if Su Luo wanted not to be moved, it was nearly impossible.

However, since there was already a three month adjustment period, Su Luo naturally would not foolishly give him a promise right now.

One could only see her exasperatedly give Nangong Liuyun a push: "Enough, flirting in front of everyone, you are not afraid of being embarrassed, but I am, almost enough already."

Oh, how bitter was Nangong Liuyun's heart ah! In order to pursue this girl, His Highness Prince Jin's majestic reputation had already been lost long ago, where did he still have some face left to lose? He had shamelessly and determinedly hung onto her!

Seeing the two of them publicly flirting, the trio with Beichen Ying were fine, after the trip to the Amethyst Fish Palace, they were already immuned to it.

Chapter 544 - Operation to divide the loot (7)

But this was the first time Li Aoqiong was seeing it, and he saw the huge contrast of before and after, with Nangong Liuyun changing into a complete different person. He watched Nangong Liuyun being good to the loathsome girl to the stage of cutting out his own heart, and immediately, he was unable to tolerate it. He stiffened his face and gave a few cold snorts: "Are we still going to divide the items?!"

"Of course divide it, why not divide it? Can it be you want to hog it all to yourself?" Beichen Ying placed both hands at his hips with his jaw at a provoking tilt and gave a few cold laughs.

"Why are you rushing, even if you rush us, the one that will lose miserably will still be you. Why can't you wait a minute, letting yourself delay the time of your embarrassment? " Lan Xuan impatiently scowled at him. Clearly, he was out of sorts because Li Aoqiong had interrupted this good show.

Li Aoqiong nearly fell down from being infuriated.

These guys, originally, they kept quiet out of fear for him, why was it that now, each and every one of them had grown guts?

Also, that loathsome girl, Li Aoqiong's gaze was as deep and cold as ice blades that were flung across Su Luo's entire face.

Was she really that pretty? Really didn't know why these guys whose eyesight were normally the top would think so highly of her?

"Lose? I, Li Aoqiong, have never lost in this lifetime, really want to try this flavor." Li Aoqiong laughed with extreme fury.

Beichen Ying, not fearing death on the spot, retorted with a slap in his face: "No problem, very quickly, you will taste the flavor of losing."

"Moreover, once you have a first time, very quickly, there will be a second time, third time." Worthy of being brothers in the same boat full of rapport, Lan Xuan added to his words very smoothly.

Su Luo looked at these two guys that were trying to outdo each other trying to support her and couldn't help being between laughter and tears.

What could this matter be regarded as?

From stepping inside until now, nobody had told her the specifics of what she ought to do. Beichen Ying and them, every single one had already considered her to be an always victorious general that had won hundreds of battles.

"I say, in the end, what kind of crafty plot are you guys up to? What specifically are you comparing? Can you send a person to explain it to me?" Su Luo snorted in irritation. Once she entered, they directly provoked the hostility, but even now, Su Luo was still unclear about exactly what happened. She was still mystified and puzzled.

Only now did Biechen Ying realize that Su Luo still didn't know the situation, and he hurriedly complied to her demand.

As it turned out, when they attacked the Dragon Gang of the Eastern Sea, they had actually discovered a pile of source stones in the treasure storage house that had performed pretty well. Just randomly cutting one open and it was a green-colored crystal stone.

Just when Beichen Ying was in the midst of being excited, who would have known that Li Aoqiong bring with him a group of people who would break the door open at that time. There were people whose hearts wouldn't be moved when seeing money, but very few people's hearts would not move when seeing source stones.

As a result, the fruit of Beichen Ying's labor was shared just like this, but this guy was also someone not easy to deal with, so he immediately put forth a new way to divide the loot.

And which was that each side send one person out to choose the source stones.

Since even from the grade of source stones, you still could not see the crystal stones inside, therefore, picking a lot or little, picking good ones versus the bad ones, all was dependant on luck.

And the reason why Beichen Ying would pick such a method was because after the trip to the Amethyst Fish Palace, he had wholehearted trust in Su Luo's genuine good luck compared to others' which were merely illusionary.

"So it is to pick source stones..." Su Luo indifferently nodded her head.

Compared to other matters, her heart would be uncertain. However, if it was picking crystal stones, with the little divine dragon in hand, if she was regarded as number two, who dared to be considered number one? Therefore, her expression was unperturbed and careless.

Seeing Su Luo's careless expression, Li Aoqiong suddenly felt this was extremely funny.

"Overestimating your abilities." Li Aoqiong sneered, giving Su Luo a sentence of evaluation that was exactly the same as said by Li Yaoxiang.

The corner of Nangong Liuyun's mouth hooked into a demonically charming, alluring and sarcastic smile. He cast a sidelong glance at Li Aoqiong: "Overestimating her abilities? Then how about we bet on another situation?"

Chapter 545 - Operation to divide the loot (8)

Li Aoqiong had nowhere to vent the anger in his heart and was waiting for people to take the bait. These words were close to his intent: "Bet on what?"

Nangong Liuyun smiled composedly: "After both sides' selection has concluded, we will cut open the stones on the spot. The side that loses will then take out one thousand pieces of green-colored crystal stones."

"One thousand green-colored crystal stones? Just relying on her?" In Li Aoqiong's eyes, Su Luo was an unknown little ant, let alone one thousand pieces, could she even take out one piece?

"She doesn't have it, then this king has." How could Nangong Liuyun not understand the expression in Li Aoqiong's eyes? He unhesitatingly spoke that on the spot.

"You...... truly are possessed!" Li Aoqiong angrily snorted coldly.

Jade Lake's Li family's chosen son-in-law, the future husband for Yaoyao, and he actually again and again helped other people! He simply could not bear it!

He looked left and right, up and down, and just couldn't see which part of this smelly girl was outstanding. In his opinion, she simply couldn't even be compared to one of Yaoyao's fingers.

At the moment, two people approached, carrying a chest. They poured out a chestful of source stones on top of the table.

When she saw these source stones, in her space, the small divine dragon that originally was sleeping simply and honestly, suddenly rolled to a sitting up position.

"Awoo, awoo--" The little divine dragon stood on two legs, his two little paws excitedly banging against the wall in her space. His was unable to suppress the saliva that flowed down from his mouth.

Good stuff, good stuff...... Woo, woo, woo, I really want to eat it. The little divine dragon's saliva flowed like a river.

Something that could excite the little divine dragon like this, looks like in this batch of source stones, the crystal stones inside were high grade. Su Luo secretly nodded her head.

Now, there were only two people that stood by the side of the long table.

One person was Su Luo, the other person was an expert at betting on stones who Li Aoqiong had invited.

He was known as the new King of Crystal Stones, Wang Zhongkui.

Wang Zhongkui was no more than thirty or forty years old, with a pair of eyes that was sharp like a blade. His nose was pointed and also bent, a typical Roman nose, one look, and you could see that he was shrewd and not to be trifled with.

At this moment, Wang Zhongkui was also secretly sizing up Su Luo.

Seeing the other side waiting here and there, the one they waited for was actually a young girl like this. Wang Zhongkui laughed silently in his heart, the corner of his mouth slowly hooking into a disdainful smile.

He had thought that the other side would invite the old King of Crystal Stones, didn't expect that it was actually a nobody of a little girl. But it was better this way, making her lose until she cried to the heavens and pounded the ground. Only then would he be worthy of the huge benefit that Li family's First Young master had promised.

"Crash--" Another chest was carried up, and the source stones inside were thrown on the table, sending out a burst of sharp hitting noises.

Beichen Ying said to Su Luo: "The rules are quite simple, you just pick the source stones that you consider look good and place it inside the chest on our side. Once it enters our chest, then it is ours. Of course, you can only take one piece at a time."

Su Luo nodded her head, indicating that she understood.

This event of dividing the loot, in addition to competing for eyesight, it was also reliant on speed.

Otherwise, no matter how good the eyesight, if the speed of choosing was not fast enough, then the good things would naturally be taken away by other people.

Seeing Su Luo's calm and composed expression, Li Aoqiong and Wang Zhongkui's eyes narrowed slightly. Simultaneously, a cynical, disdainful expression flashed through their eyes.

They quite looked down on Su Luo who was such a young, loathsome girl. You must know that betting on stones relied on eyesight and experience. What could this silly little girl possibly understand? Therefore, both of them felt that this gamble didn't even need to be bet on, it was absolutely a settled win for them!

"Choose properly, the Jade Lake Palace will not treat you unfairly in rewards." Li Aoqiong rarely dropped his posture and patted Wang Zhongkui's shoulder. Soon after, he cast a glance at Su Luo, snorted disdainfully and walked to the side to wait.

Having high hopes placed on him by Jake Lake's Li family's First Young Master, Wang Zhongkui's eyes were full of deeply moved emotion. He nodded with all his strength, expressing that he would surely bend to the task and spare no effort until his death. Then, he cast a contemptuous glance at Su Luo.

Chapter 546 - Operation to divide the loot (9)

The corner of Su Luo's mouth rose into a smile that was seemingly not there with a hint of ridicule.

Looking down on her, huh? Then she would let them see, who was the real King of Crystal Stones!

"Begin!"

Li Aoqiong's cold voice sounded in the quiet space.

His voice hadn't faded before Wang Zhongkui rapidly reached for the source stone he had already settled on long ago. Once he had it in his hands, he only slightly swept a few glances at it before putting it inside the chest at his side.

His speed was extremely fast, practically determining things after a few sweeping glances.

According to common sense, such a speed as his was already very fast, very few people could match it.

In contrast, Su Luo...... At this moment, Su Luo's performance was simply making her fellow partners blew their tops!

Beichen Ying had one hand on his forehead, who was practically regretting he invited Su Luo, this fixed-in-place Buddha, to come.

In this tense moment, she was actually sitting there in a daze!

That's right, just that kind of gaze like an imbecile, the kind of expression of mentally exploring the universe--with her mind wondering!

Did she not see that the other side had already picked about ten pieces? She was actually still there, staring blankly and lost in thought, what kind of tempo was this? Moreover, she looked awfully happy, being lost in thought that even the corner of her mouth carried a slight smile.

Not only Beichen Ying, Lan Xuan and them all had their fists clenched tightly, nervously glaring at Su Luo. They wished they could glare a hole into her back.

Luo Luo!

Sister-in-law!

Luo Luo, dear Sister-in-law!

Quickly wake up, quickly choose ah! Don't you see that all the good stuff have already been picked up by the other side?! Beichen Ying was so anxious that he perspired freely, wishing he could rush up to shake Su Luo awake.

But unfortunately, in the beginning, the rule was set that no one was allowed to make a sound, therefore, they could only use their eyes to glare at her.

But using eyes to send meaningful intent, with regards to Su Luo whose mind appeared to be blank, the effect was very little. It could even be said that it was completely ineffective.

Compared to Beichen Ying and them who was so nervous that they were keyed up, however, Nangong Liuyun was calm and composed. He stood there unperturbed, the corner of his mouth unexpectedly still had a smiling expression.

He had complete confidence in his family's Luo girl.

In any case, regardless of whether she was capable or not, as long as she was happy playing, then it was fine. He would take responsibility for everything.

Li Aoqiong saw Su Luo's lost-in-thought appearance, and his heart suddenly felt entirely free from worry. His thoughts were understandable, and he cast a disdainful glance at Nangong Liuyun: Scoff, you only have this kind of eyesight?

Nangong Liuyun raised an eyebrow and leisurely stared back: How could a common folk like you read this king's Luo girl?

Li Aoqiong coldly snorted several times, he disdainfully pointed to Su Luo's dazed appearance, and again pointed at himself: I am a common folk?

Nangong Liuyun did not object, he did not feel like dealing with Li Aoqiong. He turned his back to him, now, his whole heart was happily appreciating his family's Luo girl's good-looking back of the head.

The back of his family's Luo girl's head was also the most beautiful looking back of the head. Seeing it would delight the eye and warm his heart, His Highness Prince Jin's heart joyfully thought, having tightly been ensnared by love.

At this moment, what was Su Luo doing?

Of course, it was more complicated than being lost in thought.

As it turns out, when she wanted to take out the little divine dragon, this little guy unexpectedly told her, that according to his disjointed bit of memory that was passed on, he knew how Little Master could unite with him, the beast, as one. He didn't need to go out and she would know which source stones were a treasure.

Not having to reveal the small divine dragon, this was naturally the best method.

Consequently, Su Luo happily waited for the little divine dragon to unite her and the beast as one.

But she had forgotten......If the little divine dragon that wanted to spit out fire instead sprayed out water was reliable, then at that time, she would cut such a sorry figure.

As a result, Su Luo ended tragically.

"Little dragon, little cutie pie, little treasured one, are you ready? In the end, are you able or not to do it?" Su Luo saw her opponent once again pick another five or six pieces, and her heart became extremely painful.

"Awoo, awoo--" almost, almost.

Chapter 547 - Operation to divide the loot (10)

The little divine dragon mumbled to himself, his dragon's breath blowing out fog that could swallow the cloud...

All of a sudden, Su Luo felt her brain go blank. When she opened her eyes again, she actually felt extremely mystical.

Because now, everything her eyes could see were, one after another, little red dots.....in front of her eyes were a pile of source stones, some were marked with a little red dot and some were not.

Also, those that were marked by the little red dot were divided into ones with deep or shallow colors.

"Awoo awoo--" Master, hurry, hurry, hurry, I want all the ones with little red dots! There is not much time left!

Considering that the little divine dragon was usually unreliable, Su Luo did not know when this mystical function would be withdrawn, therefore, her hands moved extremely fast.

As a result, Su Luo gave the masses what was truly called "fast, fierce, accurate", what was truly called 'fast hands'.

One could only see that her hands were moving as quick as lightning, grabbing a piece of source stone and just throwing it into the chest, both hands moving simultaneously.

One could only see the flickering of a shadow, and the source stones inside the chest, as seen by the naked eye, increased explosively.

Looking at Su Luo right now, she seemed like the mothers at the supermarket, fighting over discounted goods , that was what was called nimble movements with a savage expression!

Clack clack clack, piece by piece, source stones were all tossed into the chest at Su Luo's side.

Wang Zhongkui, on the opposite side, was praised as the New King of Crystal Stones, yet when choose source stones, he ultimately leaned on observing its surface. Therefore, his speed in choosing source stones was not that fast.

However, Su Luo.......compared to Wang Zhongkui, her behavior was simply no different from those illiterates who had no idea how to gamble on source stones.

It was because from others' point of view, she was basically directly grabbing source stones from the table and throwing them inside the chest. Immediately throwing it after grabbing one, without the slightest hesitation and not even bothering to look.

To the audience, she looked like a complete amateur, a complete bandit, and her actions were completely idiotic!

It was because no matter how many green crystal stones you grabbed, it could not be compared to a single cyan crystal stone the other had. Even more so, it couldn't compare to a single blue crystal stone, so, no matter how many more you grabbed, it was useless.

Had this game become one of quantity and not a game of quality?

Seeing Su Luo grabbing source stones like this, Li Aoqiong sneered, disdainfully shaking his head.

First, she stupidly stared blankly, next, was this kind of blindly and ignorantly grabbing. She was simply stupid!

She was merely an unsophisticated village girl who had not seen the world, not even deserving of carrying Yaoyao's shoes. Nangong Liuyun, this time, had truly become blind. Beichen Ying and the others were also blind!

Li Aoqiong not only looked down on Su Luo, this time, he even completely looked down on Nangong Liuyun, Beichen Ying and the others.

Seeing Su Luo's appearance of frantically grabbing at source stones, Beichen Ying was simply about to cry when looking at this.

He was actually doubting, when he invited her to come and compete, was he excessively mistaken?

Lan Xuan was even more inhuman than Beichen Ying. Beichen Ying, in any case, still watched Su Luo attentively. Lan Xuan, however, had already turned his back with an expression of wishing to cry but having no tears, he simply could not bear to see it.

Anye Ming looked at Su Luo's bandit-like manner, also smiled bitterly and shook his head, repeatedly sighing.

It's over, over, over, this time's looting of every bandit treasure, at least ninety percent would belong to Li Aoqiong.

Crystal stones did not actually matter, give it away then it was given away, the crucial point was that losing the crystal stones to him, and would also be mocked at by him. This was simply unbearable!

Only Nangong Liuyun, from start to finish, had a smile at the corner of his mouth. He looked at her with eyes that were tender and soft as water, unblinkingly only gazing at his Luo girl.

What about having a bandit's manner? Even if his Luo girl acted with a bandit's behavior, then she was still the most adorable and gifted among all the bandits. He just loved to look at her.

Spending a thousand green crystal stones to look at her solo performance, Nangon Liuyun felt there was nothing more worthy than this.

Seeing Nangong Liuyun's this kind of expressions and conduct, Beichen Ying muttered to himself: "Hopeless, hopeless, this guy is simply incurable..... 'tenderness leads to many a hero's burial', the ancestors were honest and did deceive me."

Chapter 548 - Operation to divide the loot (11)

Beichen Ying and the others smiled bitterly and shook their heads.

Everybody thought that Su Luo was blindly and ignorantly grabbing away, however, nobody knew that at this moment , after borrowing the little divine dragon's strength, her eyes were capable of seeing little red dots.

Those that were marked by the little red dots were the high grade crystal stones, this was completely beyond doubt. She just needed to grab them without hesitating and throw them inside her chest.

As a result, the biggest difference between her and Wang Zhongkui, was that Wang Zhongkui still needed to hold it in his hands to glance over them a few times, also, he might not necessarily accurately see them. He could only make a rough estimate, however, Su Luo completely did not need to be so complicated.

She only needed to snatch snatch snatch, grab grab grab!

Both hands continuously circled around to seize them, operating like running water. This kind of speed, who could possibly match it?

While in this kind of emotional and excited mood, Su Luo was simply unaware of how strange her own behaviour was.

At this moment, Su Luo wholeheartedly threw herself into the action of grabbing as many treasures as she could, her heart filled with a tremendous sense of satisfaction and excitement. Naturally, she did not notice other people's assessment of her.

She only knew that those marked by the little red dots were all grades above green-colored crystal stones.

Hands that were quick would have, hand that were slow would not have, opportunity was fleeting.

Very quickly, the chest beside Su Luo was filled up, and in front of her was also a huge pile of source stones that she had discarded.

These pile of source stones weren't marked by the little red dot, signifying that it didn't have much value.

However, there was still a pile in front of Wang Zhongkui, also, that pile was flickering with red light. One glance and she could see that there were a lot of high grade source stones, she definitely could not let him have them.

Su Luo did not even think about it and immediately stood up. She started to search through the pile of source stones in front of Wang Zhongkui.

Wang Zhongkui was practically half-angered to death by Su Luo's bandit-like behavior. In front of you, there is still a big pile that you haven't even searched through, why take mine?

However, restricted by the rules, he did not dare to say more. He could only allow Su Luo's pair of slender-as-jade hands to quickly search through the pile of source stones in front of him.

Su Luo's hand speed was extremely fast, so fast that Wang Zhongkui's heart was somewhat alarmed. Couldn't say for sure but if this loathsome girl's luck was good, then all the high grade source stones would be taken away by her.

Therefore, Wang Zhongkui also started to increase his speed.

However, the problem was that his eyes did not have that kind of speed capable of distinguishing if there was a crystal stone or not. As a result, when his hands became fast, his mind relaxed. It was easy for him to make mistakes, increasingly losing the accuracy to determine the source stones.

Su Luo did not know that the psychological and mental pressure she created for Wang Zhongkui was this deep.

Compared to Wang Zhongkui's depression, Su Luo's mood could simply be described as in high spirits.

Just now, she had truly seized a lot of source stones of considerable value, her mood also continued to be very excited.

However, excitement belonged to excitement, who could be so excited and joyful in snatching food from others' mouth?

At this time, Su Luo simply did not give Wang Zhongkui a way out.

The source stones that were marked by the red dots, without exception, she would not let them go. Eyes swift and hands fast, all of them were snatched into her chest.

Also, she was very crafty.

How was she crafty?

Wang Zhongkui naturally did not have Su Luo's little divine dragon's assistance, he was also unable to see the little red marks.

Therefore, whenever his hands almost touched a source stone that was marked by the red dot, Su Luo's hands would always appear perfectly at the last moment when his hands were about to touch the source stone, quickly snatching the source stone into her own hands.

Wang Zhongkui merely thought that was Su Luo having a little girl's temperament, although he was annoyed, yet, he did not think much of it.

As a result, every time Wang Zhongkui's hand reached towards a high grade source stone, it would immediately be snatched away by Su Luo. And whenever he inspected a source stone that had not been marked by a red dot, Su Luo simply did not feel like paying any damned attention to him.

Just like this, it continued.

After Su Luo's participation, Wang Zhongkui was never actually able to grab a single high grade source stone. Naturally, he himself did not know and was still there, happily inspecting the stones.

Chapter 549 - Operation to divide the loot (12)

Li Aoqiong was also unaware of this, he was still there, disdainfully looking down on Su Luo.

Very quickly, after going through Su Luo's frantic plundering, the high grade source stones on Wang Zhongkui's side were all forcibly taken with none left.

At the same time, the ability the little divine dragon gave her was also nearly used up. In a flash, Su Luo was unable to see the red dot markings.

Su Luo directly withdrew her body and collapsed into the back of the red sandalwood chair. Both of her hands were carelessly looped behind her head with her mouth hooked up slightly. She had a smile that was not quite one as she looked at Wang Zhongkui inspect the pile of source stones in front of her.

Such a pitiful guy, she had already taken all the good stuff, what could he possibly be able to pick out?

But Wang Zhongkui, this new King of Crystal Stones, did not know, and his head continued to be buried within the pile of source stones. He was diligently and with rapid attention, single-mindedly choosing source stones.

Beichen Ying finally was unable to bear Su Luo's carelessness, with resentment and helplessness, he said: "Who spoiled her to create such a temperament?"

Where could you see that in a competition, someone would have both hands behind their head? So carelessly watching the opponent's actions? This simply...made them unable to describe it.

How could he know that Nangong Liuyun, this bastard, did not think this glory was a disgrace. He leisurely said a sentence: "This king spoiled her, do you have an objection?"

Beichen Ying's temple burst about, he simply did not dare to speak with Nangong Liuyun again.

At this moment, he cherished the memory of Nangong Liuyun from before, who was dismissive, coldly arrogant and not interested in females. The Nangong Liuyun of that time would lift a chin and look in all directions, thinking: Women? What kind of thing was that? Get the fuck away from this king!

That was what kind of impressive appearance, disdainfully looking down on the world from the corner of his eyes!

And now? He still hadn't even married her and already spoiled her to this degree. After marrying her, didn't know to what degree he would spoil her even more...The hard times were still in the future, Beichen Ying complained a lot in his heart.

Su Luo didn't understand Beichen Ying's grief, now, she was merely smilingly watching Wang Zhongkui who was facing her.

Wang Zhongkui continued to pick. Finally, he picked all the source stones in front of her that she didn't want. This made Su Luo, who originally had high expectations for him, immediately lower her impression of him by a level.

You must know that all of the source stones in front of her weren't marked with a red dot, not a dust of a crystal stone existed inside of them.

Consequently, Su Luo kind-heartedly stepped forward to remind him: "Hey, you don't need to move the pile in front of me, the ones with crystal stones have already been picked out, the remaining ones are all trash. Are you taking it to use as a stool?"

Once Su Luo said this, immediately, the entire audience was in an uproar.

The few of them with Beichen Ying were stupefied.

Li Aoqiong's expression was even more obvious as he stared at Su Luo, as if looking at an idiot: "Was this girl's brain broken from being squeezed by a door?"

"Court death?" Nangong Liuyun gave a cold snort, casting sidelong glances at Li Aoqiong. If he said another sentence to slander Su Luo, Nangong Liuyun would immediately make him regret it.

"No, these words of hers...Do you believe it?" Li Aoqiong felt that this world was too mysterious, he would never believe it.

"Of course I believe it, my family's Luo girl's words are absolutely not false." Nangong Liuyun proudly said.

Li Aoqiong observed a moment of silence for Li Yaoyao in his heart: Useless, this kind of man, do you really need to set your heart on???

Li Aoqiong withdrew his gaze, he knew if he continued to bicker with Nangong Liuyun, the one that lost would definitely be him, Li Aoqiong. Rather than that, it was better to ignore him.

Seeing that both sides had finished selecting, Li Aoqiong advanced forward a few steps. He swept a contemptuous gaze at Su Luo's full chest of stones and coldly said: "The match is over."

Beichen Ying approached and took a glance, his expression especially complicated.

If only based on quantity, his side would absolutely win. This was without a doubt.

Because after going through Su Luo's tyrant-like plundering from before, the absolute majority of source stones had entered her chest. But, the amount inside that had crystal stones...

Chapter 550 - Operation to divide the loot (13)

Beichen Ying really didn't dare to guess, maybe, inside this huge pile, there wasn't a single crystal stone.

"Sister-in-law...are you certain there are crystal stones inside here?" Beichen Ying looked at these source stones that were piled up high, suddenly, he really wanted to cry.

Su Luo heroically waved her hand: "Of course, Beichen, I'll tell you. In this chest ah, it's completely packed full of crystal stones, there isn't a single empty piece of source stone."

Su Luo had abnormal self-confidence!

She, however, had little divine dragon's eyes as a guarantee!

Seeing Beichen Ying revealing a bitter smile full of meaning, Su Luo immediately recalled her savage manner when choosing the source stones. As a result, the corner of her mouth hooked into a crafty smile: "You don't believe me? Then, let's do this, if the ratio of crystal stones inside the source stones exceeds ninety percent, then all the crystal stones here will belong to me. If not, they will all belong to you, how about it?"

"Ninety percent?" Beichen Ying cried out in alarm, his eyes were staring, wide open in a perfect circular shape.

Lan Xuan also took the opportunity to approach, picking up a piece of source stone and tossing it up and down playfully: "Sister-in-law, don't make it difficult for yourself, else, how about this. If the ratio of crystal stones to source stones exceeds ten percent, then it's considered your win, how about it?"

Ten percent? Underestimating her too much.

Su Luo insisted on with self-confidence: "Don't need to throw the game for me, just set it at ninety percent. If you want to bet, then bet, really talk too much."

This ninety percent ratio, was still a modest way of Su Luo speaking, in fact, the proportion of source stones that had crystal stones inside them was absolutely at one hundred percent.

"Good! It's a bet!" With Nangong Liuyun present, Su Luo was overflowing with fat riches. If she didn't consume these riches, then she would meet the wrath of the heavens. Today, these few brothers of yours will beat this little Sister-in-law once to teach her a lesson so she could grow.

"Okay, then it's decided like this." The corner of Su Luo's mouth rose into a crafty arc, both of her eyes had a smile. She watched Beichen with an overflowing smiling expression until Beichen became scared from the bottom of his heart.

Seeing this side start to have 'internal strife', Li Aoqiong had a pretty good mood. He cast a few icily arrogant glances at Su Luo: "Merely a small ant, overestimating its own abilities."

Su Luo cast a glance at Wang Zhongkui and glared at Li Aoqiong, hardly taking it lying down. Her mouth hooked into a cod smile: "Fishing for compliments, believing oneself to be infallible."

These two expressions, directly criticized Li Aoqiong and also reprimanded Wang Zhongkui.

"Loathsome girl, your courage is not small, aren't you afraid I will kill you?" Li Aoqiong discovered that if he must find a merit on this girl's body, then it would be her little bit of completely unjustifiable courage.

Nangong Liuyun, in a timely manner, appeared at Su Luo's side, his phoenix eyes narrowed, staring dangerously at Li Aoqiong. "You dare?"

The smiling expression on Li Aoqiong's face stiffened, sending an indignant glance at Nangong Liuyun with a rage from having been betrayed.

Su Luo smiled: "Since you are unconvinced, then we can also set up a bet, how about it?"

Setting aside the bet set up by Nangong Liuyun alone? This actually hit upon his intent.

"What's the betting method?" Li Aoqiong's gaze slowly swept pass Nangong Liuyun, finally stopped on Su Luo's face. His gaze once again regained its icy arrogance.

"The same way of betting as with Beichen's group." Su Luo's eyes were full of smiles, her smile was profoundly mysterious: "Just bet on the portion of crystal stones in the source stones. If it exceeds ninety percent, then I win, if it is less, then consider it my loss, how about it?"

Wasn't this rushing up to lose?

Not only limited to Li Aoqiong, even Beichen Ying and them also thought this way.

If they didn't know Su Luo's manner of choosing source stones then fine, but just a moment ago, they had all seen it. Wherefore was this girl picking source stones, she was simply blindly guessing with her eyes closed.

Chapter 551 - Operation to divide the loot (14)

Was there still a ninety percent probability of getting crystal stones from her selection method? Who were you trying to cheat?

If it was truly like this, then those experts at gambling on source stones could all collectively jump into the river.

Li Aoqiong coldly laughed a few times. Since this loathsome girl had taken the bet to come and lose, if he did not accept, then wouldn't it be him making things difficult himself? To waste natural resources recklessly was to meet with the wrath of the heavens.

"Good, I'll bet with you." A trace of icy arrogance and sinister expression flashed through Li Aoqiong's eyes, "Then, if you lose....."

Li Aoqiong's line of sight swept Nangong Liuyun a glance, then it firmly fixed on Su Luo again, stressing each word so that it was incomparably clear and said: "You must leave Nangong Liuyun, and never allowed to meet again!"

As long as Su Luo left, then her little sister would have a chance!

Nangong Liuyun's hands at his side tensed slightly, he bent down his head to gaze at Su Luo.

Who would have imagined that this girl didn't even know his tense nervousness. She continued very invigoratingly and said: "Fine! No problem!"

Nangong Liuyun's face darkened in a split second, so dark as to almost be able to wring out black ink.

Being stared at by his gloomy gaze, Su Luo felt a bit scared from the bottom of her heart. However, this game of chance was very important to her, she could not continuously rely on Nangong Liuyun's protection, she must protect herself.

At least, before she become formidable, she must have a smooth and undisturbed period to cultivate herself and become formidable.

Either way, it was a sure bet to win, the larger the stakes, the more she could win.

Su Luo's complexion became deadly serious, she pretended not to see Nangong Liuyun's almost-exploding-and-walking-away angry look.

She coldly smiled and stared at Li Aoqiong: "I have agreed to your conditions, but you must also promise me. If I, Su Luo, win, then Jade Lake's Li family cannot chase after to kill me within one year, do you have the authority to make this promise?"

Nangong Liuyun's complexion eased a little, yet remained ugly, his pair of eyes unwaveringly stared at Su Luo, itching to stare a hole into her heart.

Li Aoqiong's complexion focused, he had already thought that this loathsome girl would request they not kill her, however, didn't expect that her time limit was merely a year.

She stole away the guy Yaoyao had fancied, and was also linked in countless ways to Aotian's disappearance, how could the Li family let her remain in this world?

This point, even if he was the Li family's third generation's most outstanding disciple and the future master of the Jade Lake Palace, he still had no authority to make this decision.

However, a time limit of one year truly fell within the scope of his authority.

Was the request by this loathsome girl raised by coincidence? Or was it done after careful deliberation?

Li Aoqiong unconsciously looked towards Nangong Liuyun, seeing his dense, dark, annoyed face as if thick ink, his mood immediately was happy.

"Fine, I, in my identity as Li family's third generation Young Master, agree to your condition."

Li Aoqiong believed firmly, since it was not Nangong Liuyun's idea, then it must be this loathsome girl acting before thinking.

In the midst of Beichen Ying and the other's bewilderment, Su Luo and Li Aoqiong had reached an agreement.

Beichen Ying originally thought of saying something. However, he was obstructed by Nangong Liuyun's mood of being on the edge of exploding, shrunk back his shoulders, walked two steps backwards, and determined at this moment to keep a distance away from Nangong Liuyun.

"Beichen Ying, start cutting the stones." Su Luo waving her hand, calling out to Beichen Ying.

Comparing Nangong Liuyun's sinking face that was capable of wringing out black ink, Su Luo's face was brimming with a bright and splendid smile.

"Yes, coming." Beichen Ying surreptitiously took a glance at Nangong Liuyun, seeing that he did not prevent it, then he eagerly ran up.

He thought about it, and finally could not hold it in and asked: "Sister-in-law, when all is said and done, are you certain? If you lose......"

Based on Nangong's enthusiasm in spoiling this girl, he definitely would not treat her too badly. Maybe, if she threw a childish tantrum and hit his shoulders lightly, then it would be the end of that.

Chapter 552 - Operation to divide the loot (15)

However, towards they who were the main culprits, he would absolutely not hold back..... who asked them to snatch those source stones? When the time comes, Nangong's anger would be unleashed on their bodies.

Seeing that Beichen Ying's facial expression was full of grief, a trace of guilt flashed through Su Luo's heart, but this trace of guilt was quickly replaced by her feeling of excitement.

"You should be at ease, how could I possibly lose?" Su Luo patted his shoulders, expressing complete confidence in herself, "Didn't I tell you? Inside here, all the source stones have crystal stones in them, absolutely no mistake about it. When I handle things, you should feel assured."

However, like this, Beichen Ying felt his mood become even worse.

Because if she won, all these source stones on the ground would belong to her, they would be considered having wasted their efforts in vain. He really gave himself a difficult problem, whether it was a win or lose, he would be tangled up.

When Beichen Ying was in the middle of being full of remorse, the cutting of the source stones had begun.

The order of cutting source stones was simple, the two sides would each bring out a source stone, and it would be recorded after being cut out.

Then, the second piece, the third piece, until finally, it was done and the score accumulated.

The first piece, with regards to one's reputation, was very important. As a result, Wang Zhongkui looked again and again, picked again and again.

Finally, he chose a piece of source stone with great difficulty, and handed it over to a master that specialized in cutting source stones to cut it open.

On Su Luo's side, it was much simpler.

Because in her chest full of source stones, all of them had crystal stones, randomly grabbing one would result in a crystal stone.

Naturally, Wang Zhongkui selected very carefully, Su Luo, on the other hand, blindly grabbed one. Watching and comparing the two of them, Beichen Ying again shook his head non-stop.

However, the result after cutting the source stones made others feel taken aback.

Jade Lake faction: Cyan crystal stone

Beichen faction: Cyan crystal stone

At this moment, all the gazes were staring at Su luo, each and every one of them, without exception, had an unimaginable expression of disbelief.

She randomly grabbed a source stone and it contained a crystal stone. This was not much, but the most unimaginable thing was that it happened to be a cyan-colored crystal stone, which was among the high grades of crystal stone.

"It was just luck." Su Luo said with an indifferent smile.

Everyone nodded their heads: It was indeed luck, otherwise, how could randomly grabbing one result in a cyan crystal stone's appearance? However, this luck was rather too.............

However, the next thing that happened startled everyone until their chins all dropped to the floor.

If they say that Su Luo's luck was good, then her luck was truly. Extremely. Good!

This was simply a rhythm that defied the natural order.

Cutting three times in a row, Su Luo's three times were all green crystal stones, not a single empty one.

In contrast, the newly promoted King of Crystal Stones cut three times, and only cut out a single yellow crystal stone, the remaining two were waste products.

Even so, if his achievements were brought outside, the rate of two to one of getting crystal stones, that was also very good from an impartial view.

Who would have known, he would unfortunately run into Su Luo?

Four stones in a row, her stones didn't cut out a single waste product, still resulted in a cyan crystal stone and three pieces of green crystal stone, this kind of rhythm........

Everyone was staring at Su Luo as if looking at a ghost, they simply could not believe this was real.

If they hadn't seen Su Luo's appearance when choosing crystal stones, they would still barely be able to persuade themselves. But whenever they recalled Su Luo's bandit-like appearance when picking crystal stones.........

This. Was. Simply. Not. Possible!

Li Aoqiong's complexion suddenly darkened, stiffening his back, clearly not in a very good mood.

"This is impossible, IMPOSSIBLE!!!" Li Aoqiong shook his head, completely not believing this was real.

He turned and stared at Su Luo, his eyes sharp as ice blades.

He always felt that there was something fishy, but asking him to speak, he was simply unable to spit it out.

Su Luo spread out both hands, calmly and collectedly, smiled: "It's all luck, not at all surprising."

Chapter 533 - Operation to divide the loot (16)

"Sister-in law.......I was wrong......." Beichen Ying miserably pulled at Su Luo's sleeves, plantiviely and mournfully gazing at her anxiously, his tone sincere.

Su Luo appeared very magnanimous, patting his head: "Where were you wrong? So generously gifting me these crystal stones, I don't even have enough time to be happy, how could I blame you?"

Beichen Ying was simply about to cry.

Sister-in-law was truly too evil, clearly knowing that he begrudged losing those crystal stones, she would poke him where it hurt the most.

"Sister-in-law......." Lan Xuan pulled at Su Luo's other sleeve, aggrieved and miserably gazing at her. He wanted crystal stones boo hoo, boo hoo~

Su Luo pityingly returned Lan Xuan's gaze: "So pitiful, last time, using Amethyst Thorned fish to gamble and losing miserably.....this time again....alas, how can your luck be this bad? Truly unable to help even if I wanted to."

Su Luo spread out her hands, expressing her own helplessness.

But her heart was so happy as to do flips in heaven.

Because both these times, they worked for her for free, losing to her both times. Just thinking about it, Su Luo felt that it was fun.

Mentioning these heart-breaking past events, Lan Xuan could only feel his chest ache dully.

He regretted it, he regretted it so much that his intestines were green.

Last time, because he and Anye underestimated her, the Amethyst Thorned fish that would originally have been in their hands were all given to her. But, he forgot the past pains once the wound had healed, and this time, again committed the same mistake.

Ah ah ahhhh--very vexing okay?

Su Luo kind-heartedly patted Youngster Lan's head, meaningfully sighing: "A fox must not let the same trap capture him twice. A donkey also will absolutely not fall down at the same place twice. You tell me, how am I supposed to comfort you after you committed the same mistake twice?"

Hearing Su Luo's words, Lan Xuan hurt even more inside.

However, the most exciting thing that would stir people's hearts was gradually playing right now.

Just when Su Luo was playing with Lan Xuan and the others, Wang Zhongkui, in a single breath, cut ten pieces of source stones. In these ten pieces three pieces of green crystal stones and a piece of cyan crystal stone appeared.

Immediately, Li Aoqiong and Wang Zhongkui's hearts were full of confidence, contemptuously looking down on Su Luo.

"Loathsome girl, there will always be a point when good luck get exhausted, this time, you cut and see, see if you are still able to cut out crystal stones!"

Su Luo indifferently smiled: "Don't know if you guys are deaf or not, I have already said it a few times, every source stone inside my chest here all contains a crystal stone."

Su Luo, without thinking, chose four pieces of source stones and handed them over to the stone-cutting master. The result of cutting them truly hit the two people in the mouth.

"Two pieces of green crystal stones and two pieces of cyan crystal stones?!" After knowing the results, Wang Zhongkui's figure swayed, almost unable to stand properly!

He had originally thought he would win for sure, originally, he thought that Su Luo, at most, could cut out a single piece of green crystal stone, however--

His head was so dizzy.......Wang Zhongkui covered his forehead, used strength to shake his head, feeling that this was an unreal dream. But when he opened his eyes, the scenario still was as before.

Could it be........ Could it be truly as that loathsome girl said, that inside that huge chest of hers were source stones that all contained crystal stones?

Everybody knew, Su Luo's source stones that were cut open up to now, not a single piece was empty, they all had crystal stones inside them.

Beichen Ying and Lan Xuan, these two people, silently looked at each other, then silently turned around their body.

Regarding this kind of success, they truly could not bear to see.

Painstakingly fighting against the Dragon Gang of the Eastern Sea, coming out from the water and going into the fire. In the end, because of a momentary slip, with both hands, the fruits of their victory were offered to others, this was simply too heartbreaking.

Wang Zhongkui cut open fourteen source stones.

Among them, the first time's luck was the best, cutting out a cyan-colored crystal stone; the second time's luck was not so good, among the four pieces that were cut open, there was only one yellow-colored crystal stone.

Chapter 554 - Operation to divide the loot (17)

The third time, among the ten pieces of source stones were three pieces of green crystal stones and a piece of cyan crystal stone.

A total of: two pieces of cyan-colored crystal stones, three pieces of green-colored crystal stones, as well as one piece of yellow-colored crystal stone.

As for Su Luo, that was a rhythm of a hundred hits after a hundred shots.

The first time, without a doubt, was a cyan-colored crystal stone; the second time, a piece of cyan-colored crystal stone, in addition to three green-colored crystal stones; the third time, two pieces of cyan-colored crystal stones and two pieces of green-colored crystal stones.

A total of: four cyan-colored crystal stones and five pieces of green-colored crystal stones!

The most crucial point rested on the fact that she cut nine pieces of source stones, with nine pieces all hitting the mark. Not even a single piece was waste material!

Being unconvinced was simply entirely out of the question.

Now, the entire area's sights were all concentrated on Su Luo's person, pairs after pairs of gazes, like searchlights, focused on her, so bright that it could dazzle a person's eyes.

"You cheated!" Li Aoqiong's pair of cold eyes firmly stared at Su Luo, his gaze full of murderous intent.

Without a doubt, she was cheating! Otherwise, even if the real King of Crystal Stones came, he also would not have such success.

Li Aoqiong absolutely did not believe that a person relying completely on luck would reach this degree of defying the natural order. If luck was that reliable, then, what was the need for a master at gambling stones?

The corner of Su Luo's mouth pulled slightly, unhurriedly casting him a glance: "Cheating? Let me ask, how did I cheat? Does the Young Master Li want to personally demonstrate one time through?"

Li Aoqiong had always been the target of everyone's worship, when had he ever been taunted like this by another person? When had he ever been looked down upon by another's teasing and cynical gaze before?

The anger in his heart increased explosively. Flustered and discomfited with fury, he said: "Little slut, you still dare to quibble!"

He actually dared to curse by calling her a little slut! A cold intent flashed through Su Luo's eyes, at this moment, she suddenly thought of a classic dialogue when cursing others.

As a result, Su Luo carelessly cast him a glance: "Who are you cursing as a little slut? (1)"

"Little slut is cursing you!" Li Aoqiong very furiously followed with the reply.

Su Luo covered her mouth and smiled: "Little slut, what did you curse me as? Say it out loud for others to hear it."

"Pffffftt--" Beichen Ying was the first who was unable bear it, a 'pfft' laughing sound came out.

"HAHAHAHAHA--" He who was earlier as sorrowful like a classic beauty, Lan Xuan, now covered his stomach. And without caring for appearances, he sat on a chair, slapping the table and laughing wildly.

"You--" Li Aoqiong angrily pointed at Su Luo, that finger was shaking like a leaf due to his fury.

Su Luo very innocently spread out both hands, on the contrary, earnestly began instructing him: "The Eldest Young Master Li is a very learned person, why learn such a boorish, marketplace way of cursing? The key point being cursing another but actually cursing yourself."

"Abominable!" Li Aoqiong only felt the blood pressure was pulsating on his own forehead, soaring increasingly. He wished he could just rush up and dismember this loathsome girl in front of his eyes into ten thousand pieces.

Li Aoqiong, this kind of arrogant and conceited person, his abilities in disputing during an argument was usually not superior. As a result, he was suppressed firmly by the clever and eloquent Su Luo.

"The Eldest Young Master Li, why should you be this angry? Perhaps because you are about to lose, therefore you are flying into a rage out of humiliation?" Su Luo very contemptuously looked down on him.

Li Aoqiong had, with great difficulty, suppressed his mood, but now, his blood pressure was palpitating again and started soaring.

However, he knew that he was wrong, so he didn't continue to pester endlessly.

Su Luo cast Wang Zhongkui a contemptuous glance: "You cut, wait until you cut out a total of four pieces of cyan-colored crystal stones and five pieces of green crystal stones, only then will I cut more stones."

Finished speaking, Su Luo confidently and at ease, turned around and agilely walked to her own side's procession, tossing Li Aoqiong and Wang Zhongkui aside.

This kind of disregarding manner, if it was done before, how could the Li family's Eldest Young Master swallow this? He would have already brushed her away with a wave of his sleeve and annihilated her ashes. But now, his skills were not equal to theirs, what could he do?

1) This and the next two lines is the start of a joke playing on Chinese words where Su Luo called Li Aoqiong a slut: 小贱人骂谁 can mean who are you cursing as a little slut or who is the little slut cursing at. Su Luo is playing with words here, using the second meaning after Li Aoqiong said that the "little slut" is cursing "her" being Su Luo, which makes Li Aoqiong is the "little slut".

Chapter 555 - Relationship Crisis (1)

Wang Zhongkui's heart was unsatisfied.

As a result, he continued to cut source stones as if his life depended on it, attempting to cut out a super crystal stone.

However, his good luck for today appeared to have been exhausted.

In a single breath, he cut open all of the source stones he had picked. But what made him despair was that his luck changed dramatically, what he cut out, if it was not waste material, it was only red-colored crystal stones.

He was not even able to touch even the corner of a single green-colored crystal stone.

This was simply too hard for a person to believe.

Li Aoqiong's complexion became more and more ugly, more and more stiff, until finally, it became the gloomy calm before a storm approaches.

His impression towards this legendary expert at gambling stones, immediately took a nosedive.

This time, letting him lose such a huge amount of face, Li Aoqiong would definitely not let him off!

Su Luo watched as Wang Zhongkui was busy and his forehead was filled with sweat, she merely smiled and remained silent.

In fact, Wang Zhongkui was not an idiot and could be considered to have some strength.

In the beginning, when Su Luo was borrowing the little divine dragon's eyes, he was given an opportunity to take advantage of, as a result, he grabbed a few good source stones.

However, soon after, Su Luo started to frantically plunder the source stones. Seeing a good source stone, she would take it immediately, to the extent that all the good source stones were in Su Luo's hands. Wang Zhongkui could only pick from the source stones that Su Luo had discarded, if he was able to pick a good one, then it would be too mystical.

As a result, further towards the end, the worse Wang Zhongkui's source stones would become. This was due to the fact that all the good source stones had already been cut open by him.

Therefore, up to the end, he cut open fifteen waste stones in succession.

This kind of result simply made everyone speechless.

The grand and newly-promoted King of Crystal Stones unexpectedly cut open fifteen waste stones in succession. If this news was to spread outside, wouldn't it make people laugh their heads of?

Now, Wang Zhongkui's entire person had become foolish, staring blankly and stupidly at the original position like a dazed person.

Li Aoqiong eyes narrowed dangerously, his gaze staring at the pile of source stones that Su Luo had not yet cut open.

This girl's behavior was weird, somewhat real and somewhat fake, profoundly mysterious, a person really couldn't make her out. In her pile of source stones, was it true that every piece had a high grade crystal stone, or just like Wang Zhongkui, all the good crystal stones had already been cut out?

However, Wang Zhongkui had already lost. This loathsome girl clearly showed that she did not want to cut anymore, very likely, this question would never be answered.

Only, Li Aoqiong really couldn't understand, why would this loathsome girl's random picks be better than Wang Zhongkui's picks, was it really only luck?

His pair of serene and deep eyes stared dangerously at Su Luo, similar to a viper hiding inside the underbrush. It was serene, dark, sharp and sinister.

Seeing this new King of Crystal Stones had already finished cutting all of his source stones, only then did Su Luo pat her bottom and stand up, as if wishing to continue on.

She did not speak a single word, only indifferently cast Li Aoqiong a glance, her expression seemed heedless.

This expression of playing down others' reputation made Li Aoqiong's complexion swell with redness. So red as if blood was able to drip out.

"Loathsome girl, don't be too arrogant!" He secretly clenched his fists, his heart hatefully cursing.

"Eldest Young Master Li, are you still dissatisfied with this conclusion?" Su Luo happily smiled and asked.

Full of self-satisfaction, she smiled, with an appearance really deserving of a good spanking.

"HUMPH!" Li Aoqiong coldly snorted, brushed his sleeves and just wanted to leave.

"Hey, Brother Li from our generation, if you agree on a bet, you must accept the loss. Could it be you can't afford to lose it?" Beichen Ying stretched out his throat to shout out, with an attitude of wishing the whole world to be in chaos.

Lan Xuan also, reasonably did not spare him: "Ah, Brother Li from our generation, don't leave so quickly just yet, come and appreciate our house's crystal stones."

Beichen Ying and Lan Xuan's words, without a doubt, were like hitting Li Aoqiong in the face.

Li Aoqiong's foot immediately paused as he fiercely glared at the joyfully satisfied Beichen Ying and Lan Xuan. Finally, he stared at Su Luo, then angrily threw down a sentence: "Loathsome girl, if you have the time to make cynical remarks, it would be better to think about how to enjoy your final year's time."

Chapter 556 - Relationship Crisis (2)

Su Luo laughed: "Many thanks for your concern, Eldest Young Master Li, but it seems that you have forgotten something."

"What?" Li Aoqiong's voice was rough, his attitude extremely impatient.

"A thousand pieces of green-colored crystal stones, oh, the stately Young Master of the Li family. You wouldn't forget your debt after losing, right?" Su Luo said with a smile yet not a smile that was raised at the corner of her mouth, her eyes carrying a trace of careless laughter.

Li Aoqiong's figure, in that split second, became completely motionless!

Before, he and Nangong Liuyun made a wager, the one that lost would pay out a thousand green-colored crystal stones......he was infuriated till the point of being muddle-headed by this loathsome girl, to actually forgot this matter.

Not ten pieces, nor a hundred pieces, but rather, one thousand pieces of green-colored crystal stones. Just thinking about it made his flesh ache extremely painfully.

Li Aoqiong's complexion, in one second, became bright then dark, unable to settle on being overcast or clear, simply extremely ugly.

Seeing Li Aoqiong's complexion become ugly, Beichen Ying, without a trace of politeness, threw stones at him while he was down.

"Hey, Brother Li from the same generation, could it be that the stately Jade Lake's Li family is unable to take out such few crystal stones?"

Li Aoqiong, seeing Beichen Ying's face with an annoying smile, wished he could smash forward with his fists. This Beichen Ying's favorite thing was to jump out at the crucial point to throw stones at him when he was down.

Li Aoqiong knew, if he dared not to give these green-colored crystal stones, he feared that in the next moment, Beichan Ying would, without a doubt, proclaim this to be known by everyone in the imperial capital. Beichen Ying truly had this kind of capability!

Taking a few deep breaths and steadying his mood, Li Aoqiong indifferently glared at Nangong Liuyun, with a smooth tone, he said: "For the time being, I did not bring that many crystal stones with me. I will personally deliver it soon after to Prince Jin's Royal Manor. I'll take my leave!"

However, at this moment, Nangong Liuyun's complexion was gloomy, his attention was not even on Li Aoqiong's person, therefore, he was standoffish to him.

Li Aoqiong thought Nangong Liuyun was scorning him, with a single breath stifled in his throat, he infuriated himself half to death.

However, the winner takes all, who told him to be the one that lost? In the end, Li Aoqiong hatefully grinded his teeth, tightly clenched his fists and brought his huge group of people that arrived majestically to escape miserably from this situation. It was exactly like Li Yaoxiang's departure from before.

However, in truth, he misunderstood Nangong Liuyun.

Now, how could Nangong Liuyun's heart even have Li Aoqiong's existence? Those one thousand pieces of green-colored crystal stones were not even the least bit attractive to him.

His pair of pitch-black phoenix eyes unwaveringly stared at Su Luo, without even blinking, his complexion was hazy as if overlookingthe abyss.

It felt as if a strong wind was blowing from all around.

Nangong Liuyun's pair of pitch-black-like-ink eyes, made people's hearts tremble with fear, and the bottom of their hearts cold.

"Cough cough--" Beichen and the three noticed something was wrong with this situation and immediately wanted to turn and slip away.

They had a lot of experience with Nangong Liuyun's mood, if they didn't run now, would they stay to become cannon fodder?

"Stand still." Su Luo loudly called out to halt them.

"Sister-in-law, what further instructions do you still have? These little brothers of yours will immediately go do it, please don't block us, okay?" Beichen Ying gave two hollow laughs.

Su Luo unhappily rolled her eyes at them like a female gang leader as she heroically waved her hands at them: "I also won't take advantage of you guys, these source stones that have not yet been cut open, you guys take them to divide among yourselves."

"Really?!" Immediately, Beichen Ying and the others' eyes brightened, as if the clouds between heaven and earth had parted, scattering the fog. The sky suddenly opened up to a wide clearing, the air was fresh and clean with the intoxication of a beautiful spring day.

"Of course, otherwise, why on earth would I stop you guys?" Su Luo unhappily rolled her eyes at them, afterwards, she pointed at that huge chest of source stones, "Carry all of these away, I won't be able to use them anyways."

"What about you, Sister-in-law?" In all honesty, these three people had already drooled at the source stones inside the chest from long ago. However, because it was their family's sister-in-law, as a result, they dared not lay their hands on these source stones.

Chapter 557 - Relationship Crisis (3)

If this was Li Aoqiong's, Beichen Ying would have already organized manpower to lay down a sinister hand in ambush on the road to secretly rob them.

"I will take the ones that were already cut out, consider it the cost of my hard work. You guys don't have any objections, right?" Su Luo looked at them and smilingly said.

"No, no, no, completely don't have any objections." Beichen Ying, as the representative, repeatedly shook his head, "Even if inside all the source stones were waste materials, we also don't have any objections."

Beichen Ying felt that Su Luo had roughly finished cutting most of the source stones with a crystal stone. The remaining source stones should all contain waste materials. She was too lazy to move them, so she set it aside for them, right?

If Su Luo knew what Beichen Ying was thinking, she would certainly send him flying with one slap.

Lan Xuan felt that the nice surprise came too fast, it was somewhat unreal. His thinking was the same as Beichen Ying, but when compared to Beichen Ying, his mouth lacked a filter even more. As a result, he weakly asked: "Sister-in-law, this, this is not like what happened to Wang Zhongkui, in the end, nothing was cut out?"

Does this bastard even know how to speak?

Before Su Luo could get angry and change her mind, Beichen Ying and Anye Ming's brows immediately were beaded with sweat. With one of them at each side holding Lan Xuan by the arm, they just carried him out like that.

Now, even all the servants with no duties had already left, only Nangong Liuyun and Su Luo, the two of them, remained inside the room.

There wasn't another person left to joke and stall for time for Su Luo.

What needed to be confronted must be confronted in the end.

"The matter is already finished, let's go." Su Luo gave a slight cough pretending to be calm. She turned around, wishing to leave.

She wanted to pretend that nothing had happened, flipping past this page.

However, when she was about to brush past Nangong Liuyun, her slender wrist was grabbed by him.

His mood was coldly stiff and intensely strong. His gaze was as sharp as the edge of a blade, so sharp as if about to chop her into pieces.

"Still want to go?" Nangong Liuyun's tone was coldly stiff, bloodthirsty and cruel.

A strong, oppressive feeling, a heavy atmosphere, a strength that would not tolerate resistance, and an unsurpassed air of arrogance.

This strong atmosphere belonged to His Highness Prince Jin.

Didn't know why, but the bottom of Su Luo's heart felt somewhat weak, she didn't dare to look into Nangong Liuyun's eyes.

Su Luo discovered that sweat was being exuded from the center of her palms.

"Raise your head to look at me." Nangong Liuyun was like a furious, berserk beast that had been enduring silently. His pair of eyes pierced directly at her, stabbing her until her heart beat irregularly for a period of time.

Su Luo sucked in a deep breath.

Wasn't he making a big fuss over a minor issue? Did she really step over the line excessively just now?

Su Luo lifted her eyes to look at him: "Why should you be this furious? It's not like I lost."

Nangong Liuyun's deep eyes became increasingly dark, that trace of implied furious intent made his entire person seem bloodthirsty and cruel.

And following these words by Su Luo, it seemed as if the strongest hurricane was brewing within his eyes....

Compared to before when he was all smiles and frivolous, it was completely two different people.

Su Luo didn't know that her one short sentence forced the fury in his eyes to be even deeper. Her heart couldn't help but be somewhat uncertain.

"Ultimately, what are you really mad at? It's not like I will really lose you in a bet." Su Luo couldn't make heads or tails of the origin of his rage. It made her feel very helpless.

Nangong Liuyun's eyebrows flipped up, the furious flames in his eyes were ignited. He clenched his teeth, and stressing each syllable, slowly said: "There are always risks with gambling, how dare you say you will win for certain?"

"I..." Only now had Su Luo discovered, she forgot to tell him about the matter of the little divine dragon.

Consequently she tried to explain it to him in a nice tone and pleasant expression: " I can not lose, just because I was certain I can not lose, therefore..."

Nangong Liuyun didn't even give her a chance to explain, he coldly and resolutely interrupted her words.

Chapter 558 - Relationship Crisis (4)

Every word that he stressed was through gritted teeth, wishing to pinch her neck together, his tone was coldly stiff and ruthless: "You used this king as a stake in a bet, you, such a woman who dares to do something like this....abominable!"

His hand gripped her wrist extremely painfully, but she didn't dare to issue a thread of sound.

The consequences of further infuriating him was hard for her to imagine.

"Can you be a little more reasonable, okay? At that time, I was actually being forced and I also know that I certainly won't lose, therefore, it turned out like this...I already told you, I absolutely would win."

Su Luo tried to explain.

But Nangong Liuyun suddenly pressed her down upon the table on the side. Su Luo's petite body was lying down on top of that long table, whereas his body abruptly pressed down on hers.

Nangong Liuyun's finger, with clearly discernable bones, pinched her chin and intimately approached her lips. With a fierce and cruel appearance, every word was a threat as he said: "There is always a risk associated with gambling. You are just this certain you will win? Su Luo, in fact inside your heart you must be really annoyed at me, right? You really want to lose me to another, and afterwards, leave in a justifiable manner, right?"

Even though he was matchlessly strong and overbearing, with his entire body emitting a dangerous aura that was deadly.

But Su Luo could clearly see, his tone carried a strong self-mockery, his eyes were full of heartbreak of having been discarded.

"Even if I were to die, I would never use you as a stake in a bet, but you! You!" Nangong Liuyun coldly and deeply stared fixedly at her, itching to to tear her apart and eat her.

A voice in his heart unceasingly repeated: This is your Luo girl, therefore, by all means, don't injure her, by all means, you must not.

Rational reasoning continued to remind him.

But, as long as he recalled her unconcern for him, the fury would unceasingly gather in his chest, making his fingertips tremble. The furious desire grew and became overflowing, making it hard to control.

In a sudden split second, Nangong Liuyun pressed down on her, lifted up the back of her head, and strongly seized the edge of her soft lips.

It seemed as if he had gone mad, wantonly ravaging the inside of her mouth, without the least bit of tenderness from before. It was rough, wild, and ardent.

"Hurts--"The corner of Su Luo's mouth started to bleed from his bite.

Su Luo's voice finally stopped Nangong Liuyun who had gone mad. He released her slightly, with a finger lifting up her delicate chin, and forced her to face him.

His face was coldly stiff and bloodthirsty, his pair of eyes lacked any trace of heat, face expressionless. His entire face was cold.

"Use this king as a gambling stake? Want to lose this king to someone else? You just loathe me this much? Me getting close to you made you loathe me this much?" Nangong Liuyun was extremely furious. His entire appearance was sinister and cruel, the hand pinching her chin also increased its strength by thirty percent.

"Cough, cough, cough--" Su Luo felt that her own chin was about to be pinched into pieces, she couldn't restrain it any longer and started to loudly cough.

Su Luo moved her lips.

His accusation was unreasonable, she only used him as a gambling stake under the circumstances that she was certain of winning. Could it be that even this was not allowed?

Su Luo calmly returned his cruel and vengeful gaze, with an indifferent tone, she said: "Right now, you need to calm down a bit, so emotional, basically would not solve the problem."

"Calm down a bit? You said this king must calm down a bit?" Nangong Liuyun felt that this was extremely laughable and exceedingly absurd.

After she had treated him like this, she still told him to calm down a bit?

Nangong Liuyun was extremely angry but smiled instead.

All of a sudden, he felt he was extremely wretched, and extremely stupid.

He, because of her, racked his brains for ideas, because of her, unhesitantly had a falling out with Jade Lake's Li family, renounced his principles and perseverance. He didn't expect that she simply had no heart!

He suddenly started to smile, a strong self-mockery flashing through his eyes.

In the quietness of the empty room, Nangong Liuyun's tone was as soft and gentle as before: "Luo Luo, you are too cruel...."

Chapter 559 - Relationship Crisis (5)

This dull murmuring, had a hard-to-suppress sorrow.

This time, he was clearly informed that he was insignificant in her heart.

All those great efforts he made in wooing her, seemed absurd and laughable.

Nangong Liuyun's heart was unprecedentedly tranquil, like the tranquility before the approach of a tempest.

Nangong Liuyun indifferently looked at Su Luo's delicate, refined and exquisite features, in the next moment, he turned and left.

His pace was fast and urgent.

His rear view was determined and firm.

Seeing Nangong Liuyun's determined leaving back, Su Luo stared blankly, afterwards, she foolishly watched as his figure became indistinct.

He actually walked away? Just like that, leaving her behind here?

Su Luo's heart suddenly welled up with a kind of indescribable feeling of being wronged.

Moreover, her heart had a faint and very bad premonition.

"Nangong Liuyun, you stop there."

She yelled loudly towards his back, Su Luo had an urge to impulsively tell him everything.

Su Luo told herself: As long as he stops, she will tell him.

However, Nangong Liuyun didn't stop his footsteps the slightest bit, his pace became even faster.

How could he stop, also, how could he dare to stop?

He clearly knew his own temperament, if he didn't go right now, he didn't know what excessive things he would do to her.

Nangong Liuyun's walking away figure, in an instant, had vanished, only leaving Su Luo alone, standing inside the wide hall.

The ice-cold night wind, in a flash, poured in. Su Luo only felt her back hair tremble from the cold. Her entire body felt chilled.

Su Luo didn't know, in the end, how she returned to Su Manor.

She only remembered that last time, there was a huge rainstorm.

The howling wind and torrential rain poured down, the entire night was filled with the sound of rain falling to the ground. It was so noisy that she couldn't get a good night's sleep.

It also made her heart jittery for the entire night.

Having two huge, black circles around her eyes, Su Luo listlessly sat at the dining table.

Ever since Su Luo defeated Su Qing, revealing her talent, and after Nangong Liuyun, because of her, had a falling out with Jade Lake's Li family, Su Luo's days at Su Manor became increasingly easier.

Didn't know if it was because Su Zian's heart felt guilty or was trying to curry favor, in short, now, Su Luo could be considered the number one favored person in Su Manor.

As long as there were good stuff, it would absolutely first be delivered to her Wisteria Courtyard. Moreover, there weren't any servants that hadn't grown eyes to dare bully them.

"Miss, have a taste of this snow lotus fruit, it was rushed here from the north about one hundred fifty kilometers away. It's really fresh."

Lu Luo sliced the snow pear-sized snow lotus fruit neatly into smaller pieces. Every piece had a thin bamboo stick stuck in it, making it convenient for Su Luo to eat.

The snow lotus fruit shone with a lovely flavor, the most important thing was that it could strengthen a person's physique, raising the efficiency of a person's cultivation. Every single snow lotus fruit was worth thousands in gold, and could only be found by chance.

This time, it was bestowed by the emperor. Su Zian only had two of them, he heroically gave one of them to Su Luo. Su Luo's current favored position could clearly be seen.

"Miss, quickly try a taste, before, we couldn't even sniff it." The current living conditions, Lu Luo was very satisfied with.

But Su Luo sat in front of the dining table with her chin rested on both hands, both eyes blank, her entire person listless. She seemed to be declining to the point of decay.

She was often lost in thought in a daze, didn't know what she was thinking.

"Miss...." Lu Luo sensed that the Miss, since returning last night, afterwards, her entire person seemed strange.

The original her, although didn't have smiles of exaltation, she was still bursting with life and full of vitality. But the her from last night was like a frosted over eggplant, her entire person was withered and listless.

Su Luo waved her hand: "You eat it, don't worry about me."

Su Luo's pair of eyes was empty, staring at the rain outside the window, lost in thought.

Chapter 560 - Relationship Crisis (6)

She had continuously thought over yesterday's matter.

Nangong Liuyun's strong self-mockery and his aggrieved pair of star-like eyes. She couldn't wave it away from her mind.

It caused Su Luo to feel guilty about yesterday's matter all along, only, she simply could not lower her face to go find Nangong Liuyun to apologize. Therefore, this matter continued to be a deadlock.

Didn't know how long had passed, all of a sudden, the urgent sound of footsteps came from outside the door.

"The Venerable Beichen, this is the Miss's boudoir, you can't go in-" Outside was the sound of Nanny Sao Sa's voice, trying to stop him.

But the sound of those footsteps didn't seem to have paused, rapidly rushing towards Su Luo's boudoir.

The hanging curtain at the door was lifted open, and Beichen Ying's anxious face entered Su Luo's sight.

"Sister-in-law, quickly come with me!" Beichen Ying anxiously pulled at Su Luo.

Su Luo's heart dropped with a 'thump' sound, an indistinct bad premonition appeared.

"Has Nangong Liuyun met with a mishap?" Now, Su Luo could clearly hear her own heart beating.

"Ba dump, ba dump--" It was violent and clear.

At this moment, she clearly realized that she was nervous for and cared about Nangong Liuyun.

"Yes, Second Brother met with a mishap, I will tell you slowly on the way there, let us go quickly!" Beichen Ying's tone was fretful and impatient.

"Good, I will go with you right now." Su Luo's body was only covered in a plain white dress. There was no time to change clothes, and she rushed away, following Beichen Ying.

"Miss..." Lu Luo had just brought Su Luo a bowl of white fungus lotus seed soup, she lifted her head to see Su Luo walking away like a gust of wind.

The inside of the carriage was quiet.

Quiet for a long time, Beichen Ying was still the first to open his mouth because he could not remain calm any longer, "Yesterday, many thanks to Sister-in-law's gift."

"Those were originally what you guys deserve." Su Luo's tone was serene, yesterday's matter made her heart ache. Unless it was essential, she really didn't want to have it mentioned.

But--

Since Beichen Ying still had the inclination to gossip with her, it was proof that Nangong Liuyun's matter still hadn't reached the urgent, dangerous degree.

Therefore, her heart that was tightly clenched also slowly relaxed.

Beichen Ying just shook his head, that pair of pretty, limpid, huge eyes stared fixedly at Su Luo: "Do you know, after cutting open those source stones, what was inside them?"

"What's inside?" Su Luo pretended she did not care and asked. In fact, what was inside, how could Su Luo not know?

"Within every source stone, it all contained a crystal stone! It was every single source stone!" Beichen Ying shook his head in disbelief, in a split second, his expression carried some excitement, "Sister-in-law, how did you accomplish this? This thing is completely impossible to occur!"

Like Beichen, this kind of influential family, the family naturally supported quite a few masters at gambling on stones. The crystal stones they won in the gamble would be provided to the family's disciples to use for cultivation.

But Beichen Ying, from childhood to now, had never seen Su Luo's kind of mystical existence.

He firmly believed there was no way for her to cheat, because he provided the source stones. Moreover, at the time, all the cutting of the source stones occurred in front of their eyes.

Su Luo's blindly grabbing at the source stones, but every piece, that was right, every piece of source stone all contained a crystal stone inside. Moreover, it was all high grade crystal stones!

Could it be said that little Luo Luo's eyes could see through the matchlessly hard source stones and see the crystal stone inside?

Beichen Ying's gaze was like looking and worshipping gods, fervently staring at Su Luo's eyes.

However, Beichen Ying immediately tossed out his own thoughts and firmly shook his head, impossible, Su Luo's strength was so low. No matter how much she cultivated her pair of eyes, it was impossible to succeed in cultivating to the degree of penetrating through the surface of the source stone into its heart.

It couldn't be said, but Beichen Ying, you actually hit upon the truth, yet you tossed out the real truth again...alas.
