Chapter 8 Fighting for favor?

Sheng Tianze stretched out his other hand and slowly opened his palm in front of Jiang Xinli:

"I kept half of it here."

His fingers were cold, white, and slender, with a soft luster under the light.

Jiang Xinli thought for a moment, picked up one, and returned all the remaining crystal cores in her palm to him. "You earned this with your life and hard work. I'll just keep one as a souvenir."

Sheng Tianze was a little surprised, "How can this be possible?"

Jiang Xinli raised her little face to look at him with a charming smile, "You have upgraded your superpowers, so you can better protect me in the future, so you should absorb more."

Upon hearing this, Sheng Tianze suddenly leaned over and whispered in her ear, "Have you forgotten that I can't upgrade my abilities by relying on myself alone?"

“…” Some fragments of memory suddenly emerged in Jiang Xinli’s mind, and her ears suddenly turned red.

Seeing the two of them interacting intimately, Hua Xi looked as if he had seen a ghost.

He gently nudged Yue Huayin and said, "Tell me, what exactly happened between them upstairs just now? Why did the situation suddenly take a 180-degree turn?"

"Could it be that he is being remotely controlled, just like the Dark Orcs control their puppet corpses?"

"I don't understand." Yuehuayin shrugged and reached into his pocket to take out a handful of bloody crystal cores.

There were still some puppet corpse fragments on the crystal core, emitting a pungent fishy smell.

He glanced at Jiang Xinli, a complex emotion flashed in his eyes, then he stood up and walked towards the kitchen.

Hua Xi was stunned at first, then he reacted, stood up and followed.

When they were first exiled to this desolate planet, the five of them tried their best to protect the female master Jiang Xinli.

Every time he successfully hunted down a puppet corpse and obtained the crystal core, he would automatically hand over a portion of it to her without hesitation.

But at that time, Jiang Xinli not only did not appreciate it, but also always looked disgusted and scolded them for being useless and giving too little.

In order to protect Jiang Xinli, when facing the crazy attack of the large puppet corpse army, they knew that excessive use of supernatural powers would trigger mental frenzy, and the pain would be like millions of needles piercing the head at the same time.

But even so, they could only grit their teeth and go ahead.

Later, Jiang Xinli's behavior became more and more excessive. She beat and scolded them, and even imprisoned them like slaves.

From then on, the five of them reached a tacit understanding and no longer handed over the crystal cores.

In addition, the improvement of male orcs' abilities not only requires the absorption of crystal cores, but is also closely related to the spiritual comfort of females.

Deeper and more intimate contact between the two sides also plays a key role.

They have accumulated a lot of crystal cores, but without the cooperation of females, these crystal cores are just like ordinary stones, good-looking but useless.

Sheng Tianze's action of handing over the crystal core just now shocked Hua Xi and Yue Hua Yin, and they were also full of doubts.

However, Jiang Xinli's performance today really seemed like a different person.

The two went to the kitchen, cleaned the crystal core, and then carefully dried it with a towel.

Hua Xi seemed to remember something and whispered, "Do you think her second personality might be coming out?"

"It's hard to say." Yue Huayin looked up at Sheng Tianze's back. She always felt that he seemed to have a secret that he didn't tell them today.

But he couldn't ask directly, "However, whether it's the second personality or something else, we must seize this opportunity and get a divorce as soon as possible."

"Ye Kuo is still in the dungeon. I'll give this crystal core to her. I just hope she'll feel better and not be too harsh on Ye Kuo tomorrow."

Hua Xi nodded, "Yes."

The two of them returned to the living room one after another and walked straight to Jiang Xinli.

Hua Xi's face was filled with nervousness and shyness: "Madam, this is my crystal core."

Yuehuayin also spread out her palm, "This is mine." Jiang Xinli looked up in surprise and was stunned for a second.

"It was all my fault before." It took her only a second to build up her emotions, and her clear eyes instantly misted with tears. "From now on, I will definitely change."

Hua Xi was shocked again.

Yuehuayin stared at Jiang Xinli with suspicion on her face.

"I appreciate your kindness, but I can't take your crystal core." Jiang Xinli's voice softened, as if she was afraid of hurting their feelings.

Hua Xi was puzzled, "Why? Didn't you also take Sheng Tianze's?"

At this moment, the male's competitive instinct when facing the female is instantly aroused.

"I" Jiang Xinli hesitated to speak.

"I don't care, I'll put it here anyway." Hua Xi's peacock feathers suddenly exploded.

He placed the crystal core on the table in front of Jiang Xinli, turned around angrily and went back to the sofa.

Yue Huayin also put down the crystal core and said, "Here is mine, please remember to take it, Lady."

After finishing, he also stood up and left quickly.

"Shut up!" Xuanying, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his scarlet vertical pupils and sat up with an angry face.

Because of anger, the wound that had been healed by Sheng Tianze outside the house was torn again.

Bright red blood continued to seep out of the wound, staining the clothes red.

"Bang!" Xuanying threw a handful of bloody crystal cores casually and hit the table in front of Jiang Xinli accurately. The crystal cores hit the table and made a crisp sound.

He snorted coldly: "This is mine, whether you want it or not."

Among the four, he killed the most puppet corpses and naturally obtained the most crystal cores.

What was given to Jiang Xinli was almost the total amount given to the remaining three people.

Yuehuayin: “.”

Flower seal: “.”

The two never expected that Xuanying would choose to hand over the crystal core.

He remembered that he was the first one to swear a poisonous oath: if he gave that vicious woman another crystal core, he would be struck by lightning and die miserably.

Sheng Tianze raised his hand to push his gold-rimmed glasses and glanced at Xuanying meaningfully.

Jiang Xinli looked at the crystal core that smelled fishy, ​​bloody, and stained with white brain matter. She was so scared that her face turned pale and she subconsciously crawled into Sheng Tianze's arms.

"Don't be afraid." Sheng Tianze patted her back gently and comforted her in a gentle voice.

Looking at the two of them leaning against each other, a strange emotion inexplicably flashed through Yuehuayin and Huaxi's hearts.

Xuanying glanced at the two of them coldly and was about to get up and leave.

But as soon as he stood up, it was as if all his strength was drained away from him. He sat back down in an instant, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.

"Oh no! Xuanying's riot value has reached 69.99%!" The peacock feathers on Hua Xi's head stood up all at once.

Sheng Tianze frowned and was about to take a step towards Xuanying when he felt his little finger being gently hooked by Jiang Xinli.

"Can I go and comb his hair?" the girl asked cautiously.

Sheng Tianze smiled gently, "Of course, you can do whatever you want. But be careful."

Hua Xi looked at Jiang Xinli, shocked: "The sun is rising from the west! She is actually willing to help us with our spiritual energy!"

"That's fine, even if it can be reduced by 0.5%, Xuanying won't face a collapse of his spiritual sea as long as his emotions stop fluctuating like this." Yue Huayin finished speaking, lowering her voice a bit.
