Stepping on the Demoness to become the strongest-Chapter 762 - 29 Wataxi

Upon hearing Xie Ruoxi’s voice, Yan Yu was startled at first, then chuckled coldly:

"It’s like ’Gourd Kids Save Grandpa,’ right? I don’t care! No matter how many of you come, I’ll treat you all the same!"

But Su Yunjin was calm and composed, continuing to cling to the team captain until Xie Ruoxi came to knock on the door. Only then did she make a gesture to Yan Yu to quickly get rid of Ruoxi.

Zhou Hongyu and Tang Xiaolian, being away and at risk of being caught, their first reaction was to run away, but Yun Jin wouldn’t be so weak!

She had even made up her mind that "if the captain marries someone else, I’ll steal him away," even though she knew that if others found out she had snuck away, she’d definitely become the target of everyone’s attack. But she had to bet that Xie Ruoxi wouldn’t dare enter and ruin her good moments with the captain!

High risk, high reward!

Yan Yu also understood Yun Jin’s intentions. To be honest, although he wanted to see what was different about little Ruoxi’s lips from others, he was holding Yun Jin in his arms after all. He wasn’t a despicable person, so he’d let go of looking elsewhere when he was already with someone—it was disrespectful.

So, he cleared his throat, about to speak, when suddenly Xie Ruoxi popped her head through the door.

She saw the two hugging each other, and her expression instantly turned from astonishment to shock, from shock to sadness, from sadness to being expressionless, and quickly retracted her head after muttering, "Sorry for disturbing."

But Su Yunjin was quicker, sprang out of Yan Yu’s arms in a flash, opened the door, and chased after Xie Ruoxi.

Yan Yu sighed deeply: "I guess I can rest tonight."

He checked his phone and saw that Anna had sent him over 40 messages, asking why he had hung up the call.

"Sorry, Anna. If I hadn’t hung up, I would have lost my Primordial Yang."

After pacifying Anna with kind words, Yan Yu scrolled down to see a message from Tang Xiaolian, saying she had successfully returned to the girls’ party without anyone suspecting anything.

Zhou Hongyu, on the other hand, had returned to the hotel and kindly reminded him, "You still owe me for the hair tie," "I’ll come to see you again."

For some reason, seeing Hongyu’s message tightened Yan Yu’s fists.

"So, this hair tie is meant to bind me forever, huh?"

Keep taunting, and next time I’ll make sure to thrash you thoroughly!

Elsewhere, the Cultivators’ competition had finally concluded that afternoon. The authorities were about to discuss incorporating the participating civilian cultivators. Considering their strategy of investing heavily for potential, the terms offered were likely to be generous.

Ye Jun had a lot to say about that, messaging Yan Yu to vent furiously: "As a Team Monk, being assigned the defensive role to toil away for the team and potentially being laid off later, while these civilian cultivators rise smoothly, how can one stay calm?"

Yan Yu comforted her, "See, I told you already, don’t stick to what they ask you to do, what’s crucial is your own strength. Those who willingly become cogs in the machine will only end up at the scrapyard when no longer needed."

Ye Jun wholeheartedly agreed, stating her intention to temporarily set aside the Xuan Guang Ruler and start diligently practicing with the Glazed Glass Lamp Magic Treasure and Sword Control Technique.

After cheering her up, Yan Yu scrolled down further to find Li Minghu, whom he hadn’t been in touch with for a long time.

The Valkyrie had been busy first being sent on a secret mission, then the invasion of the Southern Border by Tianzhu happened, and she was dispatched to gather frontline intelligence... Damn, I even had a date planned with her. Couldn’t they give Valkyrie a break and let her out for a date with me, please!

Yan Yu yawned, continued browsing through his friend list, realizing it had been a long time since any contact with the Qing’an Team members.

Of course, mainly Li Zhaojiang, this magic brother; he wasn’t very close with the other members.

As he was scrolling through his phone, he heard Lin Ning knocking on the door, saying:

"Yan Yu, are you there?"

"I am," Yan Yu said.

"Open the door," Lin Ning said.

Yan Yu put on his pajamas and pants, got up, and opened the door to let Lin Ning in.

Lin Ning was also suspicious about Yun Jin and Ruoxi`s prolonged absence. Upon entering and finding no one in the room, her Divine Sense immediately scanned the bathroom but found nothing.

So, they didn’t come to find the captain? Where could those two have gone?

"Have you seen Yun Jin and Ruoxi?" Lin Ning asked.

"No," Yan Yu denied without changing his expression, "I’ve been lying in bed browsing my phone."

"Hmph, chatting with people outside again," Lin Ning scrunched up her nose.

Yan Yu was amused by her:

"Where did this little jealous jar come from? As the captain of the Zhenhai Team, isn’t it normal for me to have frequent communications with various parties outside?"

"It better be just for official matters!" Lin Ning said huffily, turning her head to scan the room again. Still no one, her gaze settled on the opposite wardrobe.

Her own diary had been disguised with a cover of a tool book and was safely placed inside the locked wardrobe.

A book titled "A Stranger’s Letter" was also lying in a neighboring slot.

Ah, so the captain was smart enough to mix my diary with other books, making it less likely to be spotted.

Lin Ning glanced over the Jade Pendant and red string, not thinking much of it (after all, what one keeps in their personal cabinet is their own business), then turned and said:
