105: Linglong was once again impressed by her own wit

Meanwhile, in the direction of Heng City, Xing Mulan was still livestreaming her game for the day, controlling a low-health mid-laner against a full-health ADC from the opposing team, muttering something about "the tide is with me."

Just then, her phone beside her suddenly rang, pulling Xing Mulan's thoughts back from the game.

She glanced at the caller ID on her phone and was surprised to see that it was Ke Ming calling. It was the first time she had ever called her proactively.

As soon as she picked up the phone, she heard a tragic cry from her mid-laner through the speakers.

Xing Mulan turned her head to look at the computer; her mid-laner had indeed been killed by the enemy ADC.

Then she looked at her score: zero kills, seven deaths.

“Damn it! I was so close to killing the enemy ADC, Sister Ming, you ruined it for me!”

However, she selectively ignored the various Make complaints (tùcáo - complaints/ Make complaints) bullet comments in the livestream, pretending not to see them.

Only then did she answer the phone: “Hello, Sister Ming, why are you calling me today?”

“I… I got a Celestial Legacy! Mulan, I got a Celestial Legacy, hahahaha!!!”

Ke Ming's voice on the phone was extremely excited, completely unlike her usual personality.

Xing Mulan's expression froze: “???”

She specifically held her phone to check and confirmed that it was indeed Ke Ming's call.

She had thought she recognized the wrong person; the Sister Ming in her impression was always very calm…

But then, Xing Mulan immediately reacted, her eyes widening: “Sister Ming, you… what did you just say?”

“I got a Celestial Legacy!”

“Huh?”

Xing Mulan felt her brain crash.

“I just called to share my joy with you. It's good now, I'm about to board the plane, so I'll hang up first. I'll come find you after I obtain the Celestial Legacy!”

“Hey… hey! Wait…”

“Beep beep beep…”

Before Xing Mulan could speak, a busy tone came from the phone.

Xing Mulan looked at the disconnected phone strangely, feeling her mind still a bit dazed.

She naturally knew that Ke Ming was actively looking for a Celestial Legacy. Ke Ming had mentioned it to her, but she hadn't expected her to actually find one after only searching for just over a month?

Damn it!

I've been staking out Li Mu in Heng City for even longer, why haven't I encountered him again?

At this moment, Xing Mulan's features twisted with envy.

No! I can't keep going on like this, I must go out and move around more. Maybe I'll run into Li Mu this time!

Thinking this, Xing Mulan put down her phone and prepared to leave.

But when her gaze fell upon the game on the computer in front of her, her body paused again.

Wait a minute!

She had been killed so many times by the enemy ADC that she was beyond a ghost! She absolutely could not let this go. She had to fight back first!

Then she continued to sit in her seat, and as soon as her mid-laner revived, she charged forward again, taking the place of the top-laner, tanking the damage from the five opposing players, and then going head-to-head with the enemy ADC.

If the opponent used normal attacks? Then she would too! She was determined to kill the opponent in their strongest area!

She wanted the opponent to lose convinced, even though her teammates were all cursing.

………

On the other side, Li Mu looked at Xing Mulan in the System video, and her bewildering moves couldn't help but amuse him.

And it's true, with Xing Mulan's personality, it's really possible that she might clash with the Jin Ming Sword's Sword Spirit in the future, just as he wrote in his diary!

Then Li Mu looked at Linglong, who was curled up beside him, and pondered for a moment.

It seems Linglong and Xing Mulan's personalities are quite similar…

Hmm…

Linglong is a bit more adorably foolish!

Just as he thought of Linglong, Linglong happened to get up.

Seeing Li Mu looking at it, it immediately happily trotted over.

Then it opened its big mouth, indicating that the Top-Grade Spirit Stone Li Mu gave it yesterday had been eaten.

Seeing this, Li Mu smiled and took out a Top-Grade Spirit Stone, throwing it into its mouth. Linglong immediately narrowed its eyes contentedly.

Li Mu chuckled: “After you eat this one, you'll only have four Top-Grade Spirit Stones left!”

Linglong froze: “???”

It looked at Li Mu, then at its own claws.

It counted and realized it could count them!

Oh no!

Linglong's eyes widened instantly, looking at Li Mu in disbelief, completely unable to understand how such a large pile of Top-Grade Spirit Stones could have been used up so quickly.

Then it seriously pondered for a long time, its brain's CPU almost burning out.

It just couldn't figure out what was going on.

Then it could only stare blankly at Li Mu.

Seeing Linglong's reaction, Li Mu pretended to shrug helplessly: “You ate too fast!”

Huh?

Is that so?

Linglong remained stunned for a long time…

Then it silently took out the Top-Grade Spirit Stone from its mouth, dug a hole next to the pavilion, and buried the Top-Grade Spirit Stone.

There aren't many Spirit Stones left now, so it needs to eat them sparingly.

Although it didn't understand why its Spirit Stones were being eaten so quickly, it felt like something wasn't quite right.

To be safe, Linglong decided not to let Li Mu keep its Spirit Stones anymore.

At the same time, it also asked for the remaining four Spirit Stones and, in front of Li Mu, buried them in the soil next to the pavilion.

After burying them, it even patted the dirt with its tail to compact it firmly.

Li Mu, watching this scene, felt a surge of guilt. He had only wanted to tease Linglong, this silly simpleton.

It made Li Mu feel a bit depressed.

Then he said: “Alright, alright, I was just playing with you. You still have a lot of Spirit Stones!”

Hearing this, Linglong instinctively covered the spot where it had hidden the Spirit Stones with its tail.

“You two-legged beast, your intentions are very bad, I don't believe your nonsense.”

“Hmph!”

Then it simply lay directly on top of the spot where it had buried the Spirit Stones, curling up its body, its large, innocent eyes staring at Li Mu, afraid that Li Mu would snatch its only remaining food.

It was very cunning and knew that Li Mu needed Top-Grade Spirit Stones to nourish his sword every day.

So, to prevent its delicious food from being taken by Li Mu, it also set its sights on Li Mu's Jin Ming Sword, planning to secretly take it when Li Mu was asleep and then throw it into the river so he couldn't find it.

Without that sword, the two-legged beast wouldn't eye its Spirit Stones anymore!

Linglong indicated that it was once again impressed by its own cleverness…

Seeing Linglong like this, Li Mu smiled helplessly. He might as well put Linglong's matter aside for now.

When Linglong fell asleep, he would then put more Top-Grade Spirit Stones in the spot where it had buried them.

Thinking of the river, Li Mu once again shifted his gaze to the System video page.

However, this time Li Mu no longer watched Xing Mulan but instead focused his attention on the other two randomly selected individuals with Legacies.
