Tong Qingya and Chen Shu’s faces were slightly red.
“Xiaomi, I really didn’t see that you have the potential to be a matchmaker for your husband. If those men who pursued you knew about it, I wonder how crazy they would be!”
Tong Qingya snappily laughed.
Yang Mi delicately snorted and said, “The world has changed! Do you think I’m willing to do so? Fortunately, we have the threat of Evernight now. When we arrive in the real Myriad World Continent, who knows how many crazy women will approach Li Xiang one after another? For my own sake, of course, I need to find some reliable allies!”
Chen Shu and Tong Qingya were speechless when they heard that.
“You’re really our good sister!”
Yang Mi rolled her eyes at them and said with a faint smile, “What? You don’t want to? Then I’ll tell Li Xiang!”
“Don’t!”
Tong Qingya and Chen Shu almost blurted out at the same time. However, when they saw Yang Mi’s smug look, they immediately knew that they had been fooled.
“Xiaomi, your husband doesn’t know that you’re like this, right?”
“Well, I think we should take a video and show Li Xiang her true face!”
Yang Mi chuckled and retorted, “My husband? You are now Li Xiang’s woman as well. You should say ‘our husband’!”
This time, Tong Qingya and Chen Shu could not hold back anymore. They stood up with red faces and said, “We still have things to do. We’ll leave first!”
Zhou Yutong stopped them at this time and said, “Since you’re already here, you should stay here first! If your city is threatened, we will send troops to support you! It’s not easy to meet each other, so of course, we have to talk through the night!”
“Yutong, you’ve become bad too!”
In fact, Chen Shu and Tong Qingya did not really want to leave. They were actually embarrassed by Yang Mi’s bold words.
Originally, the two of them contacted Yang Mi because they wanted to get some help using their previous friendship. They did not have any other thoughts.
Who knew that they would be fooled by Yang Mi’s words and join the alliance on a whim?
It seemed like they had fallen into a huge pit that they couldn’t even climb out of.
But in reality, the two of them were actually very eager and looking forward to the outcome deep down in their hearts. They just didn’t dare to think about it.
Now that it had become a reality, of course, they were very happy. They just didn’t know how to express it.
Although the two of them were once top-rank figures in the entertainment industry and their acting skills weren’t bad, they were actually very emotional. Once they were really moved, they would be easily influenced.
After the few of them played with each other for a while, the sense of estrangement that they originally had suddenly disappeared. They became closer now.
Chen Shu sighed and said, “Who knows that this world can change so easily? Without any preparation, we have to face those terrifying monsters directly. I heard that the world we are currently in is not the real Myriad World Continent. It’s really hard to imagine what kind of situation we will face after entering the real Myriad World Continent.”
“Don’t worry! After joining the alliance, there’s a very high probability that we’ll be assigned to the same region even after entering Myriad World Continent. Even if there’s any danger, we’ll be able to save you in time!” Yang Mi waved her hand, “Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. How’s the defense of your castles now? Will there be any problems if you’re not around?”
“There won’t be any problem for the time being! Moreover, your husband was frantically selling off equipment on the trading interface. Qingya and I have bought a large batch of equipment to increase the combat strength of our troops. Only then can we persevere until now. Otherwise, we would have already met the King of Hell.”
When Yang Mi heard Chen Shu’s words, her face was slightly red. “It’s good that we can help you! It’s just so happened that I have quite a lot of surplus equipment here. If you guys need it, I’ll give it to you.”
Tong Qingya refused with a smile. “No need. Our small castles don’t attract many monsters. However, to show Sister Shu and I’s stance, we plan to pledge alliance to Li Xiang as well. What do you think?”
Yang Mi was slightly stunned. “Why?”
When Zhou Yutong, who was sitting on the other side, heard this, her eyes flickered and she nodded slightly.
Ning Xiaoyue asked in a low voice, “Sister Yutong, what do Sister Shu and Sister Qingya mean?”
“They are expressing their positions! It’s not like you don’t know how many people are coveting Li Xiang right now, wanting to find out information about him. Haven’t you ever thought that they might be bribed to join the alliance and take the opportunity to find out Li Xiang’s information?”
Ning Xiaoyue’s eyes narrowed and she asked, “This… do you think they will do that?”
Zhou Yutong replied indifferently, “It’s not a question of whether they will do it or not. When faced with a life-and-death threat, who can guarantee that one will be able to stick to one’s principles and bottom line? Before the time comes, there’s no way to prove anything! But Sister Shu and Sister Qingya are still considered trustworthy. I’m just saying a possibility!”
“Even if they pledge their allegiance, it might not necessarily prove that they are innocent. What’s the point of doing this?”
“Of course, there’s a point! To apply allegiance, you have to sign a contract. This contract is supervised by the system. As long as you add a few restrictions on the contract, it’s enough to prove everything.”
Ning Xiaoyue nodded her head slowly and said, “But, the contract that we serve doesn’t seem to have these restrictions!”
“Then would you sell Li Xiang’s information?”
“How is that possible?”
“Then? The timing is different, so the result will naturally be different!”
After Yang Mi heard the two’s suggestion, she pondered for a moment and thought about this matter clearly. Then she said seriously, “If that’s the case, then you guys are really bound to Li Xiang. After entering the real Myriad World Continent, you can’t escape no matter how much you want to!”
Tong Qingya said indifferently, “We’ve already come this far, so we don’t need to scare anymore. Don’t you think so?”
Zhou Yutong advised, “There are still two more days before the descent of Evernight ends. Why bother! It was just a joke. Now if we really sign the contract, there’s no way out.”
“Enough! Yutong, there should be a limit to your probing, right? Don’t you know what kind of people Sister Shu and I are?” Tong Qingya pouted.
Chen Shu smiled helplessly. “Qingya and I didn’t have such thoughts indeed. We just wanted to find a place to hide. But later, we saw that many other races and even humans were offering a reward for finding Li Xiang. If the two of us just stay here, and Li Xiang’s information was leaked one day, it would be hard to make ourselves clear.”
With a reserved smile on her face, Tong Qingya said, “So, Sister Shu decided to go all out. In this precarious world, with Yang Mi, a competent matchmaker to take us as Li Xiang’s wives, what do you think?”
