Chapter 974: Chapter 31: Tang Zheng’s Charm with Women

Qin Yan’s team had gathered many newbies along the way, and their arrival swelled the mixed team’s numbers to a whopping eighty-two people.

After two days of fierce escapes and battles, eating steaming hot food, the exhausted newbies felt they were blissfully dying, with some of those of weaker constitution even hugging their bowls as they fell asleep.

Qin Yan gave a simple summary of the events of the past two days and then let out a long sigh of relief, finally able to let go of the pressure and let the group leader take over the hard work.

"Hehe, what is everyone chatting about? You all seem so happy." After reporting to Tang Ping, Xu Nian from the Instant Noodle Team rushed over to fawn over Qin Yan. As a fan of mature women, the flight attendant Qin Yan was a goddess in his eyes, her delicate face that could score a 90, her curvaceous body, slender legs, and fine waist, all of which tempted his eyes. Every time he saw Sister Qin Yan, Xu Nian felt a cat scratching at his heart, leaving him restless and infatuated.

The Conquerors of the Warhammer Team were talking around the campfire, and upon seeing this uninvited guest, some frowned in displeasure.

"Are you sick? Can’t you read the room?" Lu Fan complained, as this guy was eyeing Qin Yan with such ardour, clearly with an expression conveying he wished he could devour her, which greatly displeased the little loli.

"I’m not sick. Hey, make some room for me." Xu Nian, completely lacking awareness, reached for Bai Guo’s arm, intending to nudge the naturally stupid girl aside and make space for himself.

A blur shot from Bai Guo’s right hand, gripping the Dragon Hunting Blade and slashing at his wrist. In her heart, Qin Yan and Tang Zheng were the true pair, and what business did this man have interfering?

Xu Nian’s eyelids twitched, unwilling to lose face in front of Qin Yan; he activated his Defense Shield and attacked Bai Guo aggressively, intent on seizing her Dragon’s Sharp Edge.

With a flip of her left hand, the naturally stupid girl drew the Insect Bone Cleaver and relentlessly chopped toward his wrist. Of course, Bai Guo didn’t want to kill anyone—otherwise, a single use of invisibility would have ensured a successful sneak attack.

Xu Nian was a second-tier conqueror, twenty-three years old, arrogant, attention-seeking, and dismissive of others. His ability was named ’Firestorm’, which allowed him to control flames and was suited for mass attacks. Up against Bai Guo, a duelist-type assassin, he was doomed to be utterly defeated.

The Light Defense Shield began to waver against the strikes of the two cold weapons, alarming Xu Nian. He dashed back in retreat, while Bai Guo leaned forward, pushed off the ground with force, and launched a strong attack.

"Go, Sister Bai Guo!" Lu Fan jumped up, drawing the Wisdom Sword and wielding the Alice Kitchen Knife, cheering on the naturally stupid girl.

Tang Ping by the other campfire also shifted his attention to the skirmish but didn’t intervene. He could tell both parties were holding back, and he also wanted to use the opportunity to gauge the strength of the Warhammer Team, which surprised him.

Tang Ping’s keen eyes noticed Bai Guo rarely spoke and her opinion wasn’t sought by Tang Zheng and the others, deducing that she was a rank-and-file type. However, he didn’t expect the girl to erupt with a combat power that even made him worry.

"Two S-Class cold weapons, just as many as our big brother Tang." Zheng Xiaxia curled her lip, her tone sour with envy, jealousy, and resentment. But the next moment, Bai Guo took her by surprise once more.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, three Moon Blades shot out from Bai Guo’s waist, breaking through Xu Nian’s Defense Shield and sending a tremor through his soul. He was wearing Level A Unicorn Protective Clothing, which could withstand the Moon Blades, but his arm was still slashed and bled.

Xu Nian flipped his right hand, revealing a lighter. With a click, a wall of fire sprung up, blocking Bai Guo’s approach. Under duress, he had no choice but to release his Ability.

"Still not there—Bai Guo could have taken him down if she’d been a bit more determined in her attack," Dantai shook his head, seeing no value in this kind of spar aside from exposing one’s strengths.

"Look at her collar, she seems to be wearing Firefly Protective Clothing, holy shit, is everyone else wearing it too?" Lin Chen glanced over at Qin Yan and the others gathered around the campfire, noticing the glimpses of Firefly Protective Clothing collars, and gasped, muttering, "Is S-Class Protective Clothing such a common commodity now?"

"Better than my equipment!" Tang Ping’s mouth puckered in envy, his expression one of misery, "Xu Nian, come back, stop embarrassing yourself."

"Eh, keep fighting, why stop now?" Su Ameng said boredly, biting into an apple and fiddling with her handheld console.

"Yeah, keep going!" Lin Chen’s gaze returned to Bai Guo. Due to her vigorous movements, the naturally stupid girl’s ample chest created a wave that was quite provocative, making him involuntarily swallow and then glance at Su Ameng’s chest.

"What are you looking at? So what if my chest is a bit small? It’s still growing!" Su Ameng roared like a provoked female cat, pretending to smash Lin Chen with her console.

"I didn’t say you were small?" Lin Chen didn’t dare retort and no longer dared to look at Bai Guo, afraid of angering Ameng, but he still felt a bit sullen inside—he suspected Bai Guo’s ample bosom must have been fondled by that Tang Zheng.

"And that milf, she definitely didn’t escape his clutches either." Lin Chen glanced at Li Xinlan, exuding a mature charm, and suddenly realized he also had an affinity for mature women.

Li Xinlan had joined Qin Yan and Bai Guo midway, and those still not converged included Yu Manli, Ruan Feifei, Gu Xueqi, Sha Ou, as well as Pang Meiqin and Ai Yixin.

"Hey, aren’t you playing dirty? How can you use your Ability? Sister Bai Guo, don’t hold back, release your Ability and crush him," Lu Fan loudly derided Xu Nian, making the face-conscious young man so frustrated he wanted to crawl into a hole.

"Okay, stop, no more fighting," Qin Yan called for a halt, and the two people immediately complied.

"Why can’t I talk to Sister Qin Yan? What’s that got to do with you?" Xu Nian rubbed the wound on her arm, looking puzzled at Tang Zheng’s group. "Does one of you happen to be her boyfriend?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone’s gaze turned to Tang Zheng, waiting for his reply, while Dantai, who was sitting beside him, just smiled and shifted slightly to the side.

"Not me!" Dantai Zongqi raised both hands in clarification, then saddled Tang Zheng with the question, "Group Leader, isn’t it time you sorted out your feelings? If you keep hesitating like this, you’ll end up hurting several people."

Li Xinlan did not look at Tang Zheng, but her fingers were trembling slightly. She was afraid to hear his answer, even though she had said she wouldn’t disturb his life anymore, but when it came down to it, she found that she still wanted to have him, longing for his embrace.

Teng Yuangxiang held a can of food with a curious and gossipy expression on her face, yet inside, she was fuming with anger. Was she destined to be a mistress? She felt pathetic as she didn’t even have the dignity to fight over a man. Teng Yuangxiang glanced at Qin Yan, wishing she could slash her face.

"Lucky that Pang Meiqin isn’t here, or it would be even more chaotic." Xu Biyun felt worried for Brother Tang. Oh right, Aunt Rong, her mother’s friend, had been calling nonstop asking for Tang Zheng’s address. From this, it seemed that the Group Leader’s personal life was definitely a mess.

Lin Weiguo, although silent, also felt Tang Zheng should make a decision. It wasn’t good to drag things on. Even if his answer was a refusal, he should say it to their faces, because a woman’s prime doesn’t last forever; how can he waste it?

"Fussing like a grandmother, you don’t act like a man!" Su Ameng scornfully criticized Tang Zheng, only to be glared at fiercely by Lu Fan.

Tang Zheng turned to look at Li Xinlan, the beautiful young woman who lightly touched the hair on her forehead and then nodded faintly. She hoped he would find a good home, and Qin Yan would definitely make a wonderful wife and mother.

Tang Zheng’s gaze fell on Qin Yan, who was looking down and fiddling with the campfire, a corner of her mouth betraying deep disappointment, making his heart ache. Biting his teeth, he was about to make a promise.

"Qin Yan, I..."

"No! You can’t!" Lu Fan lunged unpleased, tumbling into Tang Zheng’s arms, with one small hand covering his mouth. "Uncle is Fanfan’s; no one can take him away."

"Fanfan, don’t cause trouble." Just as Tang Zheng was about to confess, Bai Guo and Xu Biyun’s hearts had risen to their throats, only to be interrupted by Little Lolita, making both women extremely frustrated.

"Fanfan, move aside!" Tang Zheng grabbed Lu Fan by the collar, trying to pull her down.

"Don’t say it, don’t say it; Uncle belongs to Fanfan, and no one can take him away." Lu Fan started to throw a rare tantrum, feeling Tang Zheng’s arm strengthening, she made several eye signals, but uncle didn’t notice, so out of desperation, Lu Fan lowered her head and kissed him on the mouth.

The newbies eating food were shocked; this scene was truly awkward.

"Damn lolicon!" Zheng Xiaxia muttered, but her voice was so loud that almost everyone heard it.

"This man is so hateful, daring to compete with me for a loli!" Su Ameng stood up abruptly, gripping her whip tightly, glaring at Tang Zheng with venom, wishing she could whip him to death.

Tong Ping and the other two were also taken aback, not expecting the other group’s leader to have such a peculiar fetish.

"This guy has definitely got issues, ignoring a gorgeous woman and choosing an unripe little loli, damn, I just don’t get it. Not just Qin Yan and the young wife, but just Teng Yuangxiang’s long legs could keep someone entertained for a night." Lin Chen lowered his voice, discussing with his friend.

"You don’t understand the world of a lolicon," Zeng Fanghai shook his head, putting on an air of a sage, "It’s all about nurturing. When Lu Fan grows up, she’ll definitely be a beauty."

"Sister Qin Yan, you couldn’t possibly like him, could you?" Xu Nian stared at Qin Yan, "Regardless, my feelings for you won’t change."

"Xu Nian, come back here, stop embarrassing yourself," Tong Ping interrupted, eager to end this awkward atmosphere; he signaled Lin Chen to pull back their lovestruck companion.

"I’m going to rest for a bit." Qin Yan stood up and left; no one saw the bitter smile she revealed as she turned around.

"Uncle, come, I have something to tell you." Without giving Tang Zheng a chance to argue, Lu Fan pulled on his arm and dragged him into a corner.

"What exactly do you want to do?" Facing a precocious Lu Fan, Tang Zheng was at a loss.

"Uncle, you really shouldn’t rush into a decision impulsively; this is a significant decision for your lifetime. Sister Qin Yan is great, but don’t you have an An Xiuru at home? What are you going to do about her?" Lu Fan was really anxious, genuinely considering Tang Zheng’s well-being, wanting him to have a happy and fulfilling marriage. (To be continued.
