Chapter 1697 He has arrived!
Lin Qinyue: "..."
"Your sister..."
Luo Yonghao's face grew increasingly confused, and he subconsciously responded:
"I don't have a younger sister... Miss Lin, are you mistaken?"
"Xing Anlin does have a younger sister who lives in Hangzhou; she's quite burly..."
Lin Qinyue: "..."
"Alright, go back to farming."
"Alright, call me again if you need anything, Miss." Luo Yonghao responded quickly this time, his bald head swiftly retreating into the Blasphemous Cave and disappearing from sight.
Lin Qinyue was left alone in front of the fireplace, feeling a headache.
However, her headache didn't last long.
Three seconds later, the conflicted expression on Lin Qinyue's face suddenly relaxed, and she became indifferent.
"Hey, why should I care so much?"
"That bastard Lu Li only told me to follow the plan, but he didn't say I had to complete the mission."
"Besides, that big seashell itself doesn't want to take refuge in the blasphemous cave, and I can't change its mind."
"That's fine, I'll just focus on protecting my own little corner of the world."
After comforting herself, Lin Qinyue picked up the sweet potato from the bowl again, leaned forward, and put it back in front of the stove to roast.
at this point,
Let’s eat first.
The flickering firelight inside the furnace warmed her cheeks, gradually dispelling the cold and gloom brought on by her fear.
The sweet potato skin closest to the flames had already turned slightly black.
Lin Qinyue carefully rotated the iron skewer stuck in the sweet potato to ensure that the sweet potato was heated evenly and that no part of it was burnt.
Before long, the skin of the sweet potato, which had been fully heated, began to crack.
As the iron skewer rotates, the carbon ash adhering to it falls off in a flurry, revealing the alluring golden cracks inside.
A drop of sugar syrup suddenly rolled out and dripped into the charcoal fire with a 'plop,' stirring up a wisp of blue smoke.
The unique sweet aroma of caramel exploded in front of the flames, spreading into the air and reaching the woman's nose.
Lin Qinyue took a deep breath, a look of ecstasy appearing on her handsome face:
"It smells so good... It'll be ready soon, hehe..."
She began to flip the iron skewers more frequently.
The fire crackled and popped, and the aroma of sweet potatoes grew stronger and stronger.
What started as raw and rustic has gradually transformed into a sweet and mellow flavor.
Suddenly, a large crack appeared on the surface of the sweet potato.
The golden-red flesh glistened under the firelight, making one's mouth water.
Lin Qinyue swallowed hard, resisting the urge to take a bite, and patiently blew on it.
The sweet, comforting aroma filled her nostrils once again, constantly tempting her to savor this delicious treat.
"If only it could cool down faster..."
Lin Qinyue murmured to herself, somewhat impatiently.
however,
Just when the sweet potatoes had finally cooled down to a palatable temperature,
Suddenly, the sound of a door lock being opened came from behind.
"Qinyue, come with me right now!"
The biting cold air quickly penetrated, dispelling all the warmth inside the room.
The "Frost Blessing" was applied to Lin Qinyue without explanation, bringing various attribute bonuses while also causing a layer of harmless white frost to appear on her body.
At the same time, it also caused the roasted sweet potato in her hand to cool down quickly, turning into an ice cube.
It cooled down very quickly in a certain sense.
"Third sister, what are you doing! I finally managed to roast these sweet potatoes!!"
Lin Qinyue was almost in tears.
What's the difference between this and having your instant noodles spilled right after you've prepared them, or having a roast duck fly away from your mouth just as you're about to eat it?!
It's utterly despair-inducing!!
"What sweet potato? There's no time! You have to leave now!" Lin Qinxue completely ignored the ice cube in Lin Qinyue's hand; her usually expressionless face was now filled with seriousness.
“He’s coming!”
"I know, I received the signal a long time ago, and I've done everything I needed to..." Lin Qinyue was so frustrated she almost rolled on the floor in despair.
"My sweet potatoes were just ready to eat, and you froze them! I roasted them for so long..."
"Forget about the sweet potato, He's coming, you know that!" Lin Qinxue said anxiously, emphasizing it again.
"Let Him come. Didn't that bastard have already guessed that He would come to Earth?" Lin Qinyue remained unconcerned.
They even brought frozen sweet potatoes close to the stove, trying to thaw them again.
But Lin Qinxue's passive ability is like a moving iceberg!
It's already quite remarkable that the flames in the stove can still keep burning; how could they possibly release any extra heat to melt the ice on the surface of the sweet potatoes?
Moreover, Lin Qinxue's subsequent explanation left Lin Qinyue with no time to consider anything else.
"What I mean is, He has come to the Frostlands, and He's come looking for you!"
"What?" Lin Qinyue's heart jumped into her throat, and the sweet potato in her hand fell into the stove with a thud.
"Why did He come looking for me? He can't be like that bastard, coming here specifically to mess with me, can he?!"
"Who knows? Anyway, you should hurry up and leave!" Lin Qinxue said urgently.
"I can leave Earth and go to any of the three star sectors!"
"You are protected by a soul-suppressing barrier composed of three Nuo puppets. As long as you do not actively reveal your coordinates, it will be unable to lock onto your location!"
"Which sector am I going to? This is so sudden, I didn't even prepare a change of clothes..."
"What else do you need to change your clothes..." Lin Qinxue reached for her waist, seemingly preparing to take out a teleportation item and send her unreliable younger sister away.
But before her fingertips could even touch the storage jade pendant, a sudden fluctuation in her divine sense made her immediately change her actions.
He no longer reached for the jade storage pendant at his waist.
Instead, he grabbed the hilt of the blue and red longsword.
It's too late!
"Hey, are you all here?"
A sinister voice came from the doorway.
The two women turned to look and saw a figure slowly walking in, his thin face full of an unsettling smile.
"Why do you two look like that? Aren't you happy to see me back?"
Yongye tilted his head, pretending to be very familiar with the Qinxue and Qinyue sisters, and said jokingly.
Lin Qinxue frowned, her hand gripping the hilt of her sword tightly, unsure of how to respond.
Lin Qinyue, however, quickly got into character, smoothly adopting the airs of the young lady of the Lin family, and arrogantly said:
"Hey—isn't this Lu Li, the Light of Earth and the strongest human being?"
"You didn't die outside?"
"What strange wind has blown by today, bringing such an important person as yourself to my place?"
"I was originally planning to visit my mother's grave and bring you a bouquet of white chrysanthemums while I was there!"
Upon hearing this, Yongye's smile froze, and his eyes darkened.
"What did you say? Say it again if you dare!"
"I won't repeat myself." Lin Qinyue's lips curled into a smirk, her face radiating a 'come and hit me' kind of smug expression.
"I am not as capable as you. You have provoked the strongest people in most of the universe, causing the whole Earth to live in fear along with you!"
