Chapter 127 Leng Xing’s Intention (Part )

Guo Lingli drank the tea in her hand, and a warm feeling surged into her heart, making her feel a little better.

She took a deep breath, sorted out her chaotic thoughts, then looked up at Yin Jing curiously and asked, "Yin Jing, is there really anything wrong with Captain Leng?"

Seeing that she was still ignorant, Yin Jing shook his head slightly, filled another cup of tea for her, and said slowly: "You may not have noticed that he is actually using you as an excuse."

He paused, his eyes sharpened, "If I knew he would do this, I would never let you go with him."

Hearing this, Guo Lingli frowned and asked in confusion, "What excuse did he use me for?"

"Can't you see that you are the weakling in your team?" Yin Jing said bluntly.

Guo Lingli's face turned slightly red. She knew that her strength was indeed not strong enough, but Yin Jing's direct words still made her feel embarrassed.

She suddenly remembered the news she heard at Merlin Square, so she looked up at the silver mirror and asked, "You always say this person lied to me, that person lied to me, what about you? Have you never lied to me?"

Hearing this, Yin Jing smiled slightly, took out his folding fan and fanned it gently, and replied nonchalantly: "What did I lie to you about?"

Guo Lingli took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to ask, "If I hadn't followed you, would I have had other identities and places to go?"

Yin Jing put down his folding fan and said seriously, "Of course there is, but that was your choice. You followed me voluntarily in the beginning, and I didn't force you."

"But it was you who asked me to go with you!" Guo Lingli said excitedly.

Yin Jing smiled and asked, "If I asked you to follow me, did you really follow me? If you were not afraid of having no identity and no place to stay here, would you have made the decision so easily?"

Guo Lingli was speechless after being asked this question. She knew that Yin Jing was right. She really chose to follow Yin Jing because she was afraid of having no status here.

She sighed and admitted helplessly: "You are right, I did follow you because I was afraid. But you kept telling me to be careful of this and that. You are PUAing me. Can you let me judge for myself?"

"No." Yin Jing closed his folding fan and said seriously. He skipped over the words that Guo Lingli didn't understand, as if he understood everything she said.

"Why?" Guo Lingli asked unconvinced.

"Because you are a weakling." Yin Jing said as a matter of course.

After hearing this, Guo Lingli felt somewhat dissatisfied, but she also knew that what Yin Jing said made sense.

She rubbed her temples, trying to calm her inner irritation, and then asked without temper: "Okay, tell me. How did Leng Xing use me as an excuse?"

"You are late." Silver Mirror pointed out the fact.

"and then?"

"Then why are you late? He can say it's because you fell into some place. After all, you are a newcomer with no ability. No one will ask him why he took in someone like you who has no ability. They will just say that you are a burden to the entire team."

Guo Lingli thought about what had happened along the way, but still couldn't understand it. She asked in confusion, "The players around him are all sword-controlling experts, and I did hold them back. Is there any problem with that?"

"The question is why did he take you in?"

"Didn't you give him money to take me in?" Guo Lingli asked back.

"When he was blackmailing me for spirit stones, I told you that you were the one holding the zither beside me, and not a member of his sword cultivation team. But why did he let you become one of them? And took you away on the first day? Didn't you ever think about the strangeness of this?" Yin Jing continued to analyze.

After hearing this, Guo Lingli fell silent. She began to think carefully about what happened along the way, trying to find clues to Leng Xing's true intentions.

She tried to calm her inner turmoil. She raised her head and looked at Silver Mirror firmly. Her voice was clear and powerful: "Silver Mirror, you are wrong. The reason why we came back late is not because of me, but because we mistakenly entered the territory of the six-winged condor and were trapped there."

She was sure this was the truth.

Hearing this, Yin Jing raised a playful smile. He put down the folding fan in his hand, poured himself a cup of tea, and said calmly, "Oh? The obvious target was not used. Is Leng Xing also feeling depressed?"

Guo Lingli was a little confused by his words. She always felt that there was something wrong in Yin Jing's words, but she couldn't tell why.

She opened her mouth, wanting to retort, but didn't know where to start.

At this moment, the curtain of the tent was suddenly lifted up, and Leng Xing strode in.

His eyes swept between the silver mirror and Guo Lingli, and finally fixed on Guo Lingli. His voice was cold and direct: "If you have anything to say, you can ask me directly."

Yin Jing looked at Leng Xing with a hint of provocation in his eyes. He raised his hand and poured a cup of tea for Leng Xing, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

"You're using my people as targets. It seems like you don't plan to take the spirit stones anymore?"

Leng Xing took the teacup, drank it all, and then said calmly: "You keep the spirit stone for yourself."

He did not deny Yin Jing's words, nor did he make any excuses. He just responded calmly.

Guo Lingli was stunned! He didn't deny it! He didn't deny it!

She looked at Leng Xing, and an inexplicable emotion surged in her heart, including surprise and confusion.

Yin Jing looked at Leng Xing with a sneer on his face, he turned to look at Guo Lingli with a hint of amusement in his voice.

"Mistakenly entered the territory of the six-winged condor? Is that true?"

Leng Xing nodded, his voice calm and clear: "Yes. I thought the newcomers were easy to deal with. They were not familiar with flying swords, and they fell down and happened to scare away the six-winged divine eagle, which trapped us. Who knew that the other two newcomers were both outstanding and could not scare away the six-winged divine eagle, and the person you gave me could not fly a sword, and I couldn't bring him with me personally, and he couldn't be the one who could scare away the six-winged divine eagle."

Yin Jing frowned when he heard this. He asked curiously, "If that's the case, then how did you startle the six-winged divine eagle?"

Leng Xing turned to look at Guo Lingli, his eyes filled with scrutiny and doubt: "You'll have to ask her about this."

Guo Lingli felt a little flustered by Leng Xing's sudden gaze. She took a deep breath and tried to stay calm.

"Me? What did I do?" She tried to recall the scene, but her mind was just a mess.

Leng Xing nodded, with a hint of certainty in his voice: "Yes, it's you. What did you do at that time to startle the six-winged eagle?"

Guo Lingli recalled the scene at that time, and her heart moved. Could it be the beast taming technique?

At that time, I was afraid that I had no one to rely on, so I thought of the Beast Taming Art. Could it be that the Beast Taming Art startled the six-winged divine eagle?

But she didn't know how to say this? She just thought of the beast-taming formula on Leng Xing's sword and startled the six-winged divine eagle. Isn't this too crazy? You can't say that.

She shook her head, with some uncertainty in her voice: "I don't know."

Leng Xing looked at Guo Lingli, a thoughtful gleam in his eyes: "Maybe it has something to do with beast taming." His voice was low and certain, as if he had found the answer.
