Chapter 1871 - 1866: Time to Lose Weight!

"Alright, since the talks have broken down, tell us now, what’s your purpose here this time? I don’t think you’re here just for sightseeing!"

Taking a glance at their embarrassed faces, the Treasure-hunting Rabbit tossed away the half-eaten Hundred-year ginseng and spoke seriously once more.

Hearing the Treasure-hunting Rabbit’s direct questioning, the originally lazy Hei and Xiaobai also focused a bit more.

This made the atmosphere on the scene start to become tense...

Both Hei and Xiaobai guessed that there might be a big fight next, so naturally, they needed to be alert...

Looking at the Treasure-hunting Rabbit, they spoke hoarsely, "Since you’re guarding this entrance, you must know the people inside the small courtyard! We don’t intend to make things difficult for you, just step aside and don’t ruin our harmony!"

Though the Treasure-hunting Rabbit messed with them, they remained rational.

So they understood the intricacies...

Therefore, they directly made the correct inference.

"I thought so!"

Sighing silently, the Treasure-hunting Rabbit shook its head lightly, "Stepping aside is not going to happen; I don’t know what you’re planning, but I advise you to drop those thoughts because it’s all in vain."

The Treasure-hunting Rabbit knew their strength was decent, but compared to its master, they were far inferior, so no matter what they did, it really was futile!

"Did the talks break down?"

"Yes, they broke down!"

"If that’s the case, then we don’t need to be polite!"

After saying this, the leader glanced at the few people beside him and hoarsely said, "Take action, remember, quick battle, quick resolution! Also, unless absolutely necessary, don’t harm them, understood?"

"Yes! We understand!"

Upon hearing these solemn instructions, they exchanged glances and nodded quickly...

They knew the value of the Treasure-hunting Rabbit and others, so they had long given up on the idea of harming them...

The Treasure-hunting Rabbit listened to their serious discussion, feeling a bit speechless!

In its view, they were purely talking nonsense...

They hadn’t even started yet and thought they could win, little do they know, they might be just overthinking it.

...

Inside the courtyard, Yao Ling and Cao Lingbing lay quietly on an oversized round bed...

Neither Yao Ling nor Cao Lingbing was asleep.

For some reason, they just weren’t feeling sleepy.

"What’s going on? Normally, I can fall asleep easily!"

Looking at the ceiling, Cao Lingbing muttered silently...

Lying beside Cao Lingbing, Yao Ling had similar thoughts...

After trying again, still unable to sleep, Cao Lingbing turned to look at Yao Ling and whispered, "Yao Ling, can’t you sleep either?"

"Yes, sister, you too?"

"Yeah! Me too! I don’t feel sleepy at all, and I don’t know why!"

Saying this, Cao Lingbing sat up directly in frustration.

The cold moonlight fell on her as she sat up, making her look enchanting and exceptionally graceful.

Though both women, Yao Ling couldn’t help but feel amazed.

"What are you looking at!"

Seeing her look over, a hint of shyness flashed in Cao Lingbing’s eyes.

Even though they’re both women, Cao Lingbing felt uneasy because Yao Ling’s gaze was just too direct...

"What am I looking at? Of course, a beauty!"

With a light teasing, Yao Ling sat up quickly too.

Hearing Yao Ling’s compliment, Cao Lingbing wrinkled her nose slightly and softly said, "A beauty? I feel I’m far inferior to you!"

"No, sister, your figure is much better than mine."

"I feel we’re about the same!"

"But I feel..."

Before Yao Ling could finish, she suddenly stopped...

"What’s wrong?"

Seeing Yao Ling’s abrupt halt, Cao Lingbing seriously listened and curiously asked.

"Sister, do you hear any commotion outside?"

Asking this, Yao Ling listened more carefully.

She felt there was indeed some commotion outside...

"Really?"

Cao Lingbing asked back, listening seriously too.

However, she didn’t hear any sound.

She felt it was no different from before.

"Yes! Definitely yes!"

Nodding lightly, Yao Ling continued to listen carefully.

After listening again and still hearing nothing, Cao Lingbing looked at Yao Ling, "Could it be Xiaobei’s voice? He’s next door!"

"No!"

Yao Ling shook her head quickly...

She was sure the sound wasn’t Hu Xiaobei’s voice, since this noise was distinctly noisy, clearly not made by just one person.

"Should we go and check?"

"Better to go and check, maybe there are uninvited guests!"

Responding this way, Yao Ling quickly grabbed her clothes...

After quickly dressing, she slipped on her clogs, saying, "Sister, wait here, I’ll go check first."

"No, I’ll go with you!"

While speaking, Cao Lingbing also stood up quickly.

She didn’t want to wait here, as it could make her anxious.

Seeing Cao Lingbing stand up quickly, Yao Ling said nothing more, just waited quietly...

Seconds later, Yao Ling and Cao Lingbing walked out of the room together.

After coming out, they didn’t rush somewhere else but went to Hu Xiaobei’s room door.

Looking at each other, they quickly knocked on the door.

A few breaths later, they realized Hu Xiaobei was indeed not in the room.

"Obviously, Xiaobei has something to attend to outside!"

"Yes!"

Having reached this consensus, they didn’t continue wasting time here but turned straight to the entrance, as the strange sounds seemed to come from there...

...

"Looks like they’ve discussed it; let’s discuss too. Later, there’s no need to hold back, fight to the death, got it?"

"Yes!"

Hei and Xiaobai quickly nodded...

They knew both Cao Lingbing and Yao Ling were especially important to their master, so even at the cost of their lives, they must protect their safety.

Seeing them understand, the Treasure-hunting Rabbit looked at them coldly...

Neither the Treasure-hunting Rabbit nor Hei and Xiaobai knew where Hu Xiaobei went.

But they knew Hu Xiaobei would definitely come back soon.

So they just needed to hold on a bit longer.

Thinking this way, the group quickly charged forward.

Taking a deep breath, they quickly went to meet them.

At this time, their momentum did not lag at all, but their strength was quite lacking, so soon, they were knocked down.

"Damn it! Looks like I need to lose weight!"

"Indeed!"

After being knocked down, Hei and Xiaobai muttered silently...

Previously, they thought being chubby wasn’t an issue; now they knew in crucial times, it really wasn’t good...

To be honest, if they weren’t too chubby, they could surely hold out a bit longer...
