Just as she was hesitating, a system notification arrived.
[Congratulations to Child Without Parents for obtaining: spirit power enhancement pill x1!]
Only two rewards left!
Bibi Dong immediately panicked.
She gritted her teeth and made up her mind.
To hell with her dignity, she wanted the rewards!
Dignity lost can be regained.
But if the rewards were gone, they would be truly gone!
Just as her finger was about to touch the red packet icon, Hu Liena's message popped up.
[Little Fox Who Likes Teacher the Most: Teacher! I just figured out a mystical method for grabbing red packets! Before you claim a red packet, try sending one out first. This should increase your chances of winning!]
Mystical method?
Increase chances?
Bibi Dong's mind was currently filled with those two peerless treasures. Seeing the words "increase chances of winning," she did exactly as Hu Liena suggested without a second thought.
She clicked on the red packet function, selected "Transfer Red Packet," didn't look closely at any options, and directly confirmed the transfer!
At the same time, in the Crown Prince's Mansion.
Qian Renxue saw this message and immediately envisioned an unpleasant scene that might occur.
She quickly sent a message to remind her.
[Child Without Parents: Don't send red packets randomly! Even if you do, make sure to manually select the item to transfer, don't randomize it!]
Unfortunately, by the time this message was sent, Bibi Dong's red packet had already been sent out.
[A red packet from The Yandere Maniac Beauty of the Spirit Hall!]
Li Yuan had just regretted not grabbing the red packet reward when he saw another red packet pop up. He clicked it almost reflexively.
The next second, he felt something appear in his palm—silky smooth to the touch, with a slightly cool elasticity, and a faint, subtle fragrance. It was a black lace... stocking?
[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining: One worn black lace long stocking.]
[Li Yuan: Awesome! And it's lace!]
[Big Sister with a Vicious Heart: What lace? What are you talking about? (Looking completely bewildered)]
[Ice and Snow Smart:???]
[The Yandere Maniac Beauty of the Spirit Hall: Nana, tell Teacher, have you used this mystical method yourself?]
[Little Fox Who Likes Teacher the Most: No, Teacher, I just figured it out. What's wrong? Is it... not effective? (Innocently blinking)]
[The Yandere Maniac Beauty of the Spirit Hall: It's nothing, Nana. Come to the Supreme Pontiff Palace. Teacher... will make you Stir-fried Bamboo Shoots with Meat tonight.]
[Little Fox Who Likes Teacher the Most: Really? Thank you, Teacher, I'll be right over!]
Many group members who didn't know the truth were utterly confused.
Only a few who were in the know, such as Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong, were covering their mouths, their shoulders shaking with laughter.
Meanwhile, at the Crown Prince's Mansion.
Qian Renxue also had a flood of unimaginable images in her mind.
Black, lace?
Could it be what she was thinking?
[Li Yuan: @The Yandere Maniac Beauty of the Spirit Hall, your socks stink! How long has it been since you washed your feet?]
[Loves Eating Carrots: Ugh! Group Owner, ugh! I think I need to keep my distance from you. (Vomiting)]
[The Richest Little Rich Girl in Heaven Dou: I think so too. (Rolling eyes)]
Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Don't mind what Ning Rongrong said in the group chat.
Her face was completely red.
Because she remembered last time she stomped on a pillow, mistaking it for Li Yuan.
Wouldn't that be indirectly "rewarding" him?
Oh, how embarrassing!
Supreme Pontiff Palace.
Bibi Dong's face flushed crimson, from her cheeks all the way to her earlobes, feeling both shame and anger.
She wished she could rush to Li Yuan's side and chop him into pieces immediately!
She glared at Li Yuan's message on the screen, gritting her teeth.
Outrageous!
What decent person, upon receiving a girl's sock, would smell it first?
It would be one thing if he smelled it secretly, but he actually sent a message about it.
Moreover, this was absolutely slander.
Bibi Dong was fragrant all over; where would she have foot odor?
At least, she didn't smell any herself.
No!
She absolutely could not let this scoundrel tarnish the Supreme Pontiff's innocence.
And so, Bibi Dong, whose mind was clouded by anger and shame, made a decision that she would later wish she could travel back in time to strangle herself for.
She picked up one of her jade-like feet, fair and exquisite, with a graceful arch, toes as round as pearls, and painted with alluring purple nail polish, and held it up to the brick.
She took a photo with a "click" and immediately sent it to the group.
[The Yandere Maniac Beauty of the Spirit Hall: Image (A close-up of a jade-like foot, a work of art, delicate and flawless, with purple nail polish)]
[The Yandere Maniac Beauty of the Spirit Hall: I reiterate, this Pontiff's feet do not stink! You pervert! Don't let this Pontiff see you again, or I'll break your legs!]
After cursing, Bibi Dong felt half of the anger in her chest dissipate. She took a deep breath, calmed her emotions, and prepared to continue snatching the last and most precious two rewards.
However, before she could click the red packet, Li Yuan's message popped up.
[Li Yuan: Finally, you fell for it! Good-looking, love to see it, send more! (Finally revealing his mischievous grin of a successful scheme)]
As soon as these words appeared, the entire group chat once again fell into an eerie silence.
All the onlookers were stunned.
Holy crap?!
You can play it like this?!
Is this... a provocation?
Intentionally saying it stinks to provoke the Supreme Pontiff into sending a picture to prove her innocence?
And then... he actually saw it?
[Big Sister with a Vicious Heart: 666! Top-tier strategic warfare! (Prostrating in admiration)]
[Big Cat in the Dark Night:... (Silently liked it)]
[Ice and Snow Smart:...Learned something. (Silently taking notes)]
[The Richest Little Rich Girl in Heaven Dou: (Dumbfounded)]
[Loves Eating Carrots: (Dumbfounded)]
[single cohabiting wife who runs an academy: The Group Owner's intelligence truly crushes Bibi Dong's, tsk tsk tsk, she was led around like a dog.]
Bibi Dong stared at the words on the screen, first stunned for two seconds, then reacted... "Li Yuan—!!!"
A piercing shriek, filled with endless shame, indignation, and killing intent, once again echoed through the Supreme Pontiff Palace... After a while.
Bibi Dong finally recovered from the aftermath of the "Jade Foot Photo Social Death Incident," but the anger in her chest still felt stifling.
She angrily looked at the red packet icon on the screen again.
Dignity, breaking promises... all of it was now cast to the back of her mind.
This was all Li Yuan's debt to her!
He was the one who made her so angry.
These rewards would just be compensation for her emotional damages.
She deserved them.
However, something that made her blood pressure surge even higher happened.
[Dear, you didn't grab anything!]
"Smash!"
Bibi Dong slammed the brick onto the ground, then lifted her other foot, which was clad in black stockings, and stomped on Li Yuan's avatar.
She suspected Li Yuan had set her up!
Why did people before her win, and people after her win, and so many people had already drawn, so logically her chances of winning at the end should be very high?
But when it was her turn, the dignified Supreme Pontiff, she got nothing?
A fix, this was definitely a fix!
Just as she was gritting her teeth, preparing to accuse Li Yuan of shady dealings in the group chat.
[Congratulations to Ice and Snow Smart for obtaining: Adaptive Growable god-bestowed spirit bone x1!]
Bibi Dong: "..."
Now, Bibi Dong was even more certain of her suspicions.
"Li Yuan, you already have the Way of the Secret Chamber!"
[The Richest Little Rich Girl in Heaven Dou: What kind of dog luck is that! Wuwuwu... why am I the only one who didn't get anything?!]
[Loves Eating Carrots: I didn't get anything either.]
[Big Sister with a Vicious Heart: Dog luck!]
[Ice and Snow Smart: Oh my, I'm so sorry, hehe, how did you know I got a god-bestowed spirit bone?]
[The Single Married Woman Who Runs the Academy: Congratulations! (Gritting her teeth, her fists silently clenched)]
[Li Yuan: 666, what a Versailles!]
Li Yuan never expected to encounter someone so adept at Versailles-style showing off in this World; they could almost rival him.
Just then, the system notification popped up again.
[Do you want to invite new group members?]
[Select target: Douluo Continent 1-4]
