Chapter 1671: How Dare You Scheme Against Qiaoqiao?
Sure enough, Che Ruman and company found traces of Qiao Mu’s group of five while following the surging mystic energy.
Che Ruman involuntarily glanced at that sleazy man.
What was this person’s ident.i.ty?
Why was he so sure that someone in Qiao Mu’s team was advancing a level?
Even though it wasn’t that detestable Miss Qiao who was advancing a level, this level advancement still meant that her team’s overall strength would increase. This was not something praiseworthy for them.
“I’ll go right now?” Li Qian asked quietly.
However, the sleazy man grabbed him first. “Young Sir Li, let’s first come to an agreement. I’ll help your team get first place in this compet.i.tion, but afterwards, you give this Miss Qiao to me to deal with.”
Li Qian was stunned. “What do you mean?”
“We are both kindred spirits. How would Young Sir Li not comprehend.” The sleazy man gave Li Qian a lascivious grin with his dark teeth.
Li Qian promptly understood, but he spurned the sleazy man. “I didn’t expect this to be your taste.”
That Miss Qiao looked as if she hadn’t even had her coming-of-age hairpin ceremony yet. She was too young, and even though she was extremely beautiful, she was frosty like a jade sculpture. Li Qian did not like this type.
The sleazy man chuckled. “You should go now.”
Li Qian stuck on the invisibility talisman, and he sensed a peculiar energy funneling into his body.
He promptly heard Che Ruman exclaim quietly, “Li Qian has vanished.”
Li Qian’s confidence couldn’t help but multiply. After leaving Che Ruman and the others’ hiding places, he nimbly made his way toward Qiao Mu and her team.
Qiao Mu should currently be keeping watch for Qi Xuanxuan.
Senior Brother Ma Ta was sitting on the side, rotating the meat on the roasting spit.
Beside Qi Xuanxuan who had her eyes closed to focus on her level advancement, the other two, the little fatty and Senior Brother Duanmu Qing, were also meditating with closed eyes.
Li Qian exhaled quietly. Even Heaven was helping him.
He had originally been worried that things would be somewhat difficult if Senior Brother Duanmu Qing was wide awake.
He didn’t expect that only Qiao Mu and Senior Brother Ma Ta were keeping watch at this time.
If it was like that, his chances of success would increase.
As long as he snuck over to Qiao Mu’s side and stuck that puppet curse onto her unbeknownst to anyone, just like the sleazy man said, then a powerful curse energy would automatically enter her conscious pool and control her actions.
She would then be at their bidding for seven days.
Of course, the control over Qiao Mu as a puppet would probably be in that sleazy man’s hands.
Because, even until the end, the sleazy man did not tell him how to use this puppet curse.
When Li Qian arrived stealthily in front of Qiao Mu, he suddenly froze.
Because he discovered Miss Qiao lifting her head and looking impa.s.sively at him with icy eyes.
Cold sweat instantly streamed down his forehead.
How come he felt like this gaze felt so tangible, like it was able to pierce through him?
Li Qian suddenly picked up a small pebble and flicked it at Qiao Mu’s feet.
The sound of the small pebble landing made Ma Ta swiftly glance around in vigilance. When he discovered no suspicious man nor beast in the surroundings, he raised the piece of spiritual beast meat in his hand and asked Qiao Mu with a grin, “Qiaoqiao, this spiritual beast is ready to eat. Do you want to have a piece first?”
“You eat it.” Qiao Mu glanced coldly at Li Qian before closing her eyes afterwards.
Li Qian promptly let out a sigh of relief.
F*ck, he had thought that this Miss Qiao had seen through him.. It turned out that he had been overthinking it!
