Asher watched Zhang Meiling with a thoughtful expression on his face. He hadn't expected the youngest one to have the Supreme Ranked Spirit, which meant she was the strongest of her sisters.
"Hehe... Do you also fancy her, Asher? She has quite the charm, so with your personality, I'm sure you won't be able to resist." Lei Liwei teased Asher with a giggle, and he just rolled his eyes at her.
"Oh, shut it, woman. I'm not some lowly idiot who gets attracted to every pretty face that passes by." He scoffed at her words.
"But you agree that she is indeed charming, right?"
"You are not going to let this go, are you?"
"Nope~"
Asher sighed, shaking his head, before continuing. "Alright, yes, she is attractive. Anyone with eyes can see that. Satisfied?"
"Hmmm... No, not quite. Tell me, who do you think is prettier, her or me?" Lei Liwei asked with a smirk.
"Are you trying to make me fall into this trap where if I say your name, I look like a lovestruck fool who is head over heels for you, but if I say her, you will say that I am just a superficial jerk who likes to flirt with beautiful girls and forgets about them later on?" He answered her question with another question.
Lei Liwei giggled again, amused by his reaction, and continued teasing him, "Wow... Someone is knowledgeable, haha~"
Then she gave a seductive wink at him and blew a kiss, saying, "Alright, it's my turn to get my Spirit's rank evaluated."
Lei Liwei thanked her again before walking away.
A few moments later, she saw Long Lingyu and grinned at her, who was observing her with an unreadable expression.
"Hey, Long Lingyu, why the gloomy face? Do you regret breaking your engagement with Yuan Long, haha?"
"Hmph! Regret? Do you think I care about a man like him? Or do you think I fear the consequences of my actions?" Long Lingyu snorted with her eyes filled with disdain.
"Ouch, that's cold. But anyway, I agree that he isn't worthy of you. After all, who would want to marry a man like him? Not me, for sure." Lei Liwei nodded in agreement with her.
"I guess we share the same opinion for once. However, your behavior still annoys me. Just stop acting all smug; it makes me sick to see you smiling like that." Long Lingyu glared at her with annoyance.
"Aww, come on, don't be a buzzkill, girl. We can always become good friends if you treat me nicely. If not, I'm afraid that this kind of attitude will cause conflict between us. Don't you think so?"
"Is that a threat?" Long Lingyu narrowed her eyes at Lei Liwei, whose smile widened as she shook her head.
"Of course not. How can you call it a threat? I'm just being honest here. Don't misunderstand my intentions."
Long Lingyu kept silent for a moment as she studied her expression before responding with a slight nod, "Fine, I'll keep your words in mind. Now it's my turn, so scram."
After saying that, she brushed past Lei Liwei and headed towards the obelisk, leaving a speechless Lei Liwei behind.
"Wow, talk about being rude. It doesn't hurt to be civilized, does it?" She huffed while crossing her arms below her chest, but soon a mischievous glint flashed across her eyes as she smirked, "Well, whatever... It will be fun messing with her in the future, since we are in the same sect and all. Ha ha ha!"
