Fairy, shut up! I'm really not blondie.

Su Qing said in a soft voice.

"Then let's say goodbye."

Li Su nodded and said.

Without the slightest hesitation, the three of them turned and left decisively.

"From this perspective, they seem to be reasonable."

Gu Qingyu watched their departing figures, her eyes thoughtful.

Luo Shen knew that her current position was rather sensitive, and the other party's reaction was within her expectations.

I thought there might be some conflict or even a fight, but I didn't expect it to end like this.

Well, overall, they are still some of the more law-abiding people.

"Yu'er, that's because we've shown our strength. Don't be fooled by appearances."

"They were just about to take a hard line, but they found that we were a bit more difficult to deal with."

Xiao Yunyan glanced at her daughter and began to answer her questions.

My daughter is still too naive; she's easily fooled.

I usually help them check for omissions and fill in the gaps; otherwise, what can I do?

After hearing this, Gu Qingyu subconsciously glanced at Su Qing.

Su Qing nodded, indicating that this was indeed the case.

Not only that, he also pulled the big loli to his side and rubbed her face.

"Young Master, what are you doing?!"

Ruolian took a few seconds to react and exclaimed in bewilderment.

What does this have to do with you? Why would you do something like this?!

The little girl impatiently pushed his hand away, trying to get this wretched young master to stay away.

"It's all your fault. Who told you to be so eager to show off?"

"Don't you understand the principle of 'a good start is a good finisher'? You might as well wait for them to make their move first."

Su Qing's tone carried a hint of dissatisfaction.

Normally, he would want to provoke the other person's anger first.

Their main approach is to be tough and uncooperative.

Wait until they become impatient, abandon all courtesy, and prepare to take forceful action, then deliver a shock.

After all, none of the people Su Qing brought looked like experts.

Apart from one man, the rest were all women, and there was no sense of oppression from the war god.

This kind of pushover will likely make the other party think that forcing them won't be a problem.

But before the other party could even hurl insults, the little girl revealed her strength.

As a result, subsequent content could not be carried out, which is truly regrettable.

"Master, what kind of entrapment is this? This is wrong!"

"Do I really have to beat them up and show them my strength? Is that all it takes?"

Upon hearing this, Ruolian immediately puffed out her cheeks.

That young master is such a scoundrel! He gets upset if he doesn't beat people up when he sees them!

"Because this will make them realize the gap and prevent them from having any ulterior motives."

"What's more memorable than a severe beating?"

Su Qing said in a matter-of-fact tone.

After hearing this, the women exchanged glances and nodded silently.

"But my fish almost escaped while dragging the fishing rod!"

"I worked so hard to catch that, how can I let it go?"

"If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have had a good meal today!"

Ruolian still felt that the fish she had caught was more important.

"...With your strength, you could easily grab a bunch with your bare hands, right?"

"Could it be that the fish caught will taste exceptionally delicious, melting in your mouth?"

Su Qing was speechless at these words.

Without Butcher Zhang, would we still be eating hairy pork?

If they all rely on your fish to fill their stomachs, they'll all starve to death.

Moreover, strictly speaking, it wasn't even caught by fishing.

The big girl left before the other person took the bait. The fishing rod is responsible for fishing, not the person.

Therefore, this wave should be attributed to the fishing rod.

"Hmph, young master is being unreasonable; he can make sense no matter what he says."

"So what if I didn't beat them up? I'll chase after them and put sacks on their heads right now!"

Ruolian said angrily.

This anger was partly directed at the despicable young master, and partly at those other people.

You should just get started, why stop halfway through?

You made me get scolded, I'll beat you all black and blue.

"No need, no need, that would make us seem unreasonable."

"Ruolian did a pretty good job today. I'm still looking forward to eating your grilled fish."

Su Qing twitched the corner of her mouth and said.

He certainly couldn't possibly let his bodyguards beat someone up without any reason.

Otherwise, it would be too bizarre and seem like a deliberate attempt to create enmity.

Although they are not afraid, they are not so reckless as to act without restraint and do whatever they want.

"That's true, my fish is more important."

Ruolian nodded and walked towards her fish basket.

Today is the day to show your skills!

The three elders hurriedly left the woods and returned to their private room.

They had no idea they had been spared a beating, nor did they know they were no match for a fish.

If they knew, they would be filled with grief and indignation.

The room was quite full of people, all of whom were elders from various sects.

Everyone is waiting for news so they can plan their next move.

Li Su sat in his seat, picked up the tea on the table, and drank it all in one gulp.

His expression looked somewhat complicated, as if he didn't know where to begin.

"Elder Li, what happened?"

An elder who looked older asked.

After observing their expressions and demeanor, they inevitably felt somewhat heavy-hearted.

Because no matter how you look at it, these three people didn't bring any good news.

The other two remained silent, while Li Su simply recounted the whole story.

Upon hearing this news, the expressions of many elders turned somber.

"This is outrageous! How dare that kid look down on us like this!"

"I never imagined that there would be such a hidden master in this secular world."

"The waters of Dayan are indeed very deep; there's no need for us to confront them head-on."

"It's not a question of conflict or not, but what they want to do."

"They've really gone too far, treating us like clay!"

The once quiet private room instantly transformed into a bustling market.

Countless people were indignant and felt a strong sense of shared hatred towards the enemy.

"Quiet down, there's no point in arguing about this now."

"In this world, strength speaks for itself. Since they have the strength, we have nothing to say."

An elderly Taoist priest slammed his hand on the table and said in a deep voice.

Hearing this, everyone stopped their commotion, but their expressions showed some resentment.

"Are we just going to let this go?"

One of the elders was somewhat unwilling to accept this.

"To reiterate, we are not hostile to them."

"Since they want to camp there, let's pretend nothing happened."

"This is their territory, and they have enough power to be there."

The Taoist priest spoke in a serious tone.

Everyone sighed, clearly feeling helpless about the situation.

Ultimately, this situation stems from a lack of standard strength and a lack of justification.

If they were in the right, they could simply raise their flags and force them all to leave.

If you're strong enough, you can go and ambush someone under the cover of darkness.

As long as we can drive them out of that place, uniting together isn't a big deal.

We have neither advantage nor disadvantage, so we can only accept this fact and let them stay there.

"Thinking about it carefully, this can be considered as giving some face to their Yin Ling and Teraya Ryu."

“Since you’re borrowing someone else’s property, forcing the owner to leave is not the right thing to do.”

"Let's have a proper discussion about how to allocate resources after the cave opens."

"Since they say they won't seize resources, we can only believe them for now."

The Taoist priest scanned the entire room and spoke.

Since this problem is very difficult and cannot be solved in a short time, let's put it aside for now.

Their purpose in coming here was to move on to the next question immediately.

After a brief moment of contemplation, the elders began to discuss the matter again.

If we can't solve the problems on the Dayan side, then we should solve the problems we can solve first.

"The ultimate purpose of this trip is to compete for various resources for our sect."

“Those powerful sects may not care about these things, but we cannot ignore them.”

"But we elders leading the team can't take action ourselves, so let's see how our disciples handle it."

The Taoist priest made a suggestion.

He was one of the most capable people present, so his words carried considerable prestige.

"If we don't go in, what if they want to?"

An elder asked.

The "they" he was referring to were naturally Su Qing and her group.
