Chapter 33 First Encounter with Tong Que
In the next seven battles, the late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators who encountered Lin Xu's miserable state either surrendered outright due to their cowardice, or could only withstand a few moves from Lin Zhao before being defeated when Lin Zhao's bone sword pointed at their vital points.

As the Lin family's grand event was in full swing, a slender figure holding a child's hand appeared in Lin Family City.

Chen Luoluo looked around nervously and asked the boy, "Queque, what are you looking for here?"

She urged anxiously, "It's not safe for us to stay out here. Why don't you and your sister go back to your sister's sect?"

The boy turned and glanced at her. Chen Luoluo wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she felt there was a hint of mockery in his gaze.

She comforted herself, telling herself that she must have misread it. The system had helped her plunder the luck of female protagonists from various worlds so many times without any mistakes, so there was no reason why it would repeatedly run into obstacles with Lin Zhao.

Tong Que crossed his arms, glanced at her, and didn't even bother to pretend to be obedient anymore.

How could this woman, who is good for nothing except her appearance, possibly defeat a demon soul in the Enlightenment stage with the power of Foundation Establishment?

However, Tong Que was very interested in her ability to rewrite the appearance of women in his memory.

"But I want to play here a little longer. Sister Luo Luo, please agree to Que Que's request, okay?" Tong Que asked with a smile.

His appearance was quite deceptive; when he smiled at people with his exquisitely beautiful eyebrows, at least Chen Luoluo was fooled.

"Okay... alright." Chen Luoluo looked around, bit her lip, feeling uneasy that Tong Que would see Lin Zhao, and still reminded him, "Then we need to go back as soon as possible."

Tong Que ignored her and asked innocently, "Sister, what place is that? Can we go and take a look?"

Chen Luoluo looked in the direction Tong Que pointed and saw the four characters "Lin Family Restaurant". Her face darkened slightly. She thought to herself, "No matter where I go, I can't escape the Lin family. They're like a persistent ghost."

But considering her image in front of Tong Que, she could only manage a gentle smile. "That's not a good place. Shall we go somewhere else to play? Didn't you just want to go to that crowded place? Come on, I'll take you there now."

Tong Que glanced at Lin Family Restaurant with a hint of regret, then reluctantly nodded, "Alright."

Before Chen Luoluo could catch her breath, she turned around and saw Lin Zhao walking with Su Bai. Her vision went black instantly, and she almost collapsed from lack of breath.

Lin Zhao noticed the resentful and unwilling gaze, and looked at Chen Luoluo with a sense of something. Of course, she also saw the boy beside her, but did not recognize him as the boy she had saved. She simply pretended not to see him and turned to Su Bai, saying, "We've tried all the good dishes at Lin Family Restaurant. What would you like to eat this time?"

Su Bai, being such a meticulous person, quickly noticed Chen Luoluo and Tong Que. His gaze lingered on Tong Que for a while before he looked away without any expression.

"Does your sister know that woman in the pale yellow dress?"

Lin Zhao said, "That is Chen Luoluo, the little disciple of the Cloud Peak Immortal Venerable."

Even if she didn't say anything, Su Bai knew everything perfectly well.

But this time he brought up Chen Luoluo not because of that, but because Chen Luoluo always gave him a strange sense of repulsion, as if he was born unable to bear the existence of Chen Luoluo.

Seeing that both of them had seen her, Chen Luoluo knew that forcibly avoiding them was useless, so she could only pretend not to see them and pull Tong Que away.

Tong Que suddenly gripped her hand tightly: "Sister, who is that pretty sister in the blue dress?"

The phrase "pretty sister" sparked a flash of jealousy in Chen Luoluo's eyes.

Over the years, everyone at Yunding Peak has fawned over her, making her forget that she is actually inferior to Lin Zhao in terms of appearance and temperament. Now that Tong Que has shown this difference with his "naive and ignorant" attitude, how can she tolerate it?

“That person…” Chen Luoluo seemed to be thinking of something sad, and her eyes gradually filled with tears.

Wiping away her tears, Chen Luoluo pretended to be strong and said, "She used to be my senior sister, but she did some excessive things, so she was expelled from the sect by our master. Although she hurt me a lot, I will persuade our master to give her another chance. As long as she is willing to repent, I will persuade others to try to accept her."

Tong Que tightened his grip on her hand, his amusement deepening, yet his expression seemed one of shock: "She's so wicked, and you're still helping her, sister! You're too kind!"

Chen Luoluo forced a smile and shook her head: "Fine, let's not think about these sad things. Let's go."

Tong Que suddenly broke free from her hand: "I'm going to avenge my sister!" After saying that, he charged towards Lin Zhao like a bull.

Lin Zhao had already raised his hand when someone rushed towards him, but when he saw it was a child, he withdrew his strength and lifted the child up.

"Are you the new disciple of that old turtle from Cloud Peak?" Lin Zhao looked Tong Que up and down, asking with no goodwill.

As they drew closer and his breath filled her nostrils, Tong Que was certain that this was the person who had saved her that day.

Observing his aura, he couldn't help but be surprised. Had his strength increased so quickly in such a short period of time?

Compared to her, calling Chen Luoluo a good-for-nothing would be an understatement.

Lin Zhao threw him toward Chen Luoluo.

Although she didn't know why, Tong Que always had a strange desire to make her his enemy.

Therefore, regardless of the relationship between Tong Que and Chen Luoluo, she will not treat Tong Que kindly.

"Senior Sister!" Chen Luoluo took Tong Que from him and looked at Lin Zhao with teary eyes.

“He’s still a child. No matter how dissatisfied you are with me, you can’t involve innocent people.”

Lin Zhao initially didn't want to pay attention to her because she was worried that the Cloud Peak Immortal Venerable's people were hiding in the shadows, but now that the other party had delivered herself to her doorstep, she would be doing her a disservice if she didn't make trouble for her.

Lin Zhao gripped the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword and asked with a cold laugh, "You came out alone today?"

Chen Luoluo didn't miss the killing intent in the other person's eyes. Thinking of her miserable state in the secret realm, she turned around and ran away.

Lin Zhao threw out the bone sword, which arrived in front of her in an instant.

Chen Luoluo screamed.

The next moment, a flash of white light appeared on her body, and she disappeared from the spot while holding Tong Que.

Lin Zhao looked down and saw only a burnt teleportation talisman on the ground.

"You ran fast." Lin Zhao stomped away the ashes and said, "You can run for a while, but you can't run forever. Chen Luoluo, it's time to return what you took."

Su Bai glanced at the string of teleportation talismans: "A fifth-grade teleportation talisman. Cloud Peak Peak is quite generous."

Lin Zhao crossed her arms: "No matter how much she's willing, she can't escape it."

After the family competition, Chen Luoluo must give back the three-tenths of Phoenix Luck!
Su Bai smiled slightly: "Let's go to the wine shop near the east of the city. They've got a new peach blossom spirit wine there, and I've heard it's pretty good."

Lin Zhao's eyes lit up: "Is it good?"

"Of course, but you can't drink too much, or your aunt will scold you again, and there are still a few games this afternoon."

Lin Zhao sighed in frustration, "Fine. I guess I'll just have to watch you drink to your heart's content."

The figures of the boy and girl gradually disappeared into the sunlight. A figure as black as ink watched this scene and slowly tightened its grip on the jade pendant in its hand.

"Su Bai, just you wait, I'll make sure you suffer a terrible death in the Continental Tournament!"

Tong Que is not the male lead; the female lead will kill him.
