Chapter 141: Calculation

  The next morning, Li Luo opened his eyes with a heart full of expectation for the Synergy Tree at Sacred Xuanwu Academy.

  Wash up and go downstairs.

  On the second floor, Xīn Fú was seen as usual, focused in front of his easel. This time, Lǐ Luò put away that childish concern for his captain and went downstairs with a expressionless face.

  First floor living room, Bai Mengmeng was busy in the kitchen, her slender figure carefully preparing breakfast.

  Looking at the girl's pure and beautiful face, Li Luo let out a soft sigh. Although it is said that beauty can be savored like food, eating this kind of thing every day isn't quite right either.

  Just as Li Luo was feeling anxious and depressed, the door was suddenly knocked on. He went forward to open it, and then a familiar and absolutely beautiful face appeared before his eyes.

  "Qing'e?" Li Luo was slightly surprised and smiled.

  Jiang Qing's slender figure stood upright, her delicate body was elegant and refined. Her legs under the battle skirt were slender and straight, her golden eyes emitted a kind of inexplicable charm that made people's gaze involuntarily sink into them.

  The morning light fell on her lovely face, delicate skin, as if a faint jade glow was flowing.

  At this time, she was holding a small bag with her jade fingers. After seeing Li Luo, she smiled and handed the small bag over to him.

  "This is the most famous red glutinous rice cake in the cafeteria of Shengxuan Xingxue Academy, it's best to have it for breakfast."

  Li Luo hastily took over, with tears in his eyes: "We're saved!"

  "You come back later, I'll be tortured again." He quietly pointed to the room.

  Jiang Qing'e took a glance and saw Bai Mengmeng's lovely figure, smiling ambiguously: "You're taking advantage of the situation and still pretending to be innocent?"

  "You'll know once you've tried it." Li Luo sighed.

  Jiang Qing'e didn't bother with him either and said: "Come on, let's go."

  Li Luo looked at her like that, knowing she had something to say to him. He nodded and turned around to inform Bai Mengmeng before leaving the small building with Jiang Qing'e.

  In front of the small building, there was a lake as clear as a mirror, with faint mist surrounding it.

  On the road by the lake, from time to time, there were trained disciples wearing devil suits whizzing past, and inevitably, a few gazes fell on Li Luo who was walking shoulder to shoulder with Jiang Qing'e.

  Those eyes were filled with intense male jealousy.

  After all, Jiang Qing'e is now a student of the Three-Star Institute of Shengxuan Xuefu. In terms of fame, it's likely that no one in the school doesn't know her. It's said that in terms of popularity, Jiang Qing'e is not at all inferior to the eldest princess who is now a student of the Four-Star Institute.

  Li Luo was already immune to these gazes. He popped a red rice cake into his mouth and said, "What is it that you want to say, Qing'e?"

  Jiang Qing'e's golden eyes glanced at him, and she fell silent for a few breaths before saying, "Regarding the matter of the princes' battlefield, your mentor should have already told you about it, right?"

  Li Luo's hand, which was reaching into the bag for the red sticky rice cake, paused, and his eyes suddenly became complex, nodding lightly.

  "No wonder Qing'e never told me before." He sighed.

  "Knowing all this in advance would put a lot of pressure on you, it's not necessary." Jiang Qing'e said.

  "It's probably just helpless." Li Luo said with a bitter smile.

  "It's not just you who can't do anything about it, I'm also powerless."

  Jiang Qing'e said in a soft voice: "But it's also unnecessary to belittle oneself, having a goal isn't a bad thing."

  Li Luo nodded and fell silent for a moment before saying: "I don't even know how Father and Mother are doing now..."

  "They'll be fine, we don't have to worry unnecessarily, and instead of worrying about their safety on the battlefield, perhaps we should be more careful ourselves." Jiang Qing'e said slowly.

  "What does it mean?"

  Jiang Qing'e walked into the shade of a tree by the lake, her eyes fixed on the water's surface. At this moment, Li Luo felt that her expression had become much colder.

  "You should know how to pick and choose who enters the royal battle arena, right?"

  "Life and death contract." Li Luo said.

  "Among the numerous dukes of Dashan, there aren't that many strong ones, but roughly counting, there are still dozens... However, both Master and Mistress drew a black sign at the same time. Isn't this... a bit too coincidental?"

  In the early morning, Jiang Qing'e's calm voice entered Li Luo's ears, but it made him shudder suddenly, and his face turned gloomy in an instant.

  "You mean... they were set up?" Li Luo said slowly and deliberately.

  Jiang Qing'e stretched out her hand to catch a falling leaf and said, "I don't have any evidence, this is just my speculation and intuition."

  Li Luochen said in a low voice: "But you should also know that wanting to manipulate the life and death contract is not something an ordinary person can do, who has such great ability?"

  Jiang Qing'e fell silent for a moment before saying, "If we really have to make an educated guess, then the three major powers of Daxia are capable of this."

  She glanced at Li Luo.

  "Shengxuan Star Academy, Wangting, Jindragon Treasure Journey."

  Li Luo was silent for a moment, these three parties were indeed the strongest forces in Dashu, but if they really wanted to plot against his parents, what would be their motive? Was it really necessary?

  "I knew this speculation was far-fetched, so I never mentioned it before. But now that you've come to Wang City and entered the Sacred Xuanxing Academy, you're starting to enter the eyes of various forces. So, I might as well share these speculations with you too. Whether or not I'm overthinking, it's still better to be cautious." Jiang Qing'e said.

  Li Luo nodded and sighed: "Actually, it's still a matter of insufficient strength."

  Jiang Qing'e also deeply felt the same way, if she had already been enfeoffed at this time, then she wouldn't have to be so restricted and could boldly investigate some of the things that made her suspicious.

  At this moment, the two suddenly heard footsteps coming from one side and immediately stopped talking at the same time.

  "Haha, Jiang Xue sister, I saw your back and thought it looked familiar. Came over to take a look, and indeed it's you." A burst of laughter sounded at the same time, Li Luo turned his head, only to see a tall and straight young man walking towards him with a smile.

  He looked young and handsome, with a sword-like eyebrow and starry eyes. At this moment, he was wearing a thick and heavy devil suit, but even though he was wearing such a heavy object, he still looked calm and composed, showing that his strength was not bad.

  On the robe of the young man, there were two stars on it, indicating that he was a student of the Second Star Academy, one level higher than Li Luogao.

  As Li Luo sized up the young man, the latter also looked at him with a smile: "You're Li Luo's junior brother? I've heard of you long ago."

  "My name is Ye Qiudeng, I am a student of the Second Star Academy."

  Li Luo smiled and said: "Hello, Ye Shixiong."

  "Anything wrong?" Jiang Qing'e asked calmly, looking at Ye Qiudeng.

  Ye Qiudeng hastily waved his hand and said, "We've finished our training and happened to be resting here. I coincidentally saw Sister Jiang over there and thought I'd come over to say hello. Didn't disturb you guys, did I?"

  Li Luo took a glance at the road behind and indeed saw dozens of people sitting idly under the green shade, all wearing devil costumes, panting heavily with sweat dripping down.

  Judging from their clothes, these people are students of the Second Star Academy.

  At this time, some of the resting students were also casting their eyes over here to size them up, and when they saw Ye Qiudeng and Jiang Qing'e talking, they all smiled quietly.

  Jiang Qing'e shook her head and said, "I just sent Li Luo a breakfast."

  Ye Qiudeng took a glance at the red sticky rice cake in Li Luo's hand and said with some envy, "It's still my first time seeing Jiang Xuesister help someone buy breakfast. Li Luoxue brother is really lucky."

  "Hehe, I won't bother you much anymore, Jiang Xuesister. If there's another task that needs me in the future, feel free to find me, and I'll do my best."

  He smiled at Jiang Qing'e with a somewhat sly smile, then waved his hand and turned to leave with a carefree air.

  Li Luo watched as Ye Qiudeng's figure disappeared, let out a somewhat helpless sigh, then pointed at Jiang Qing'e with the hand holding the red rice cake, his voice stern.

  "What's going on now?"

  "I've just entered the Sacred Profound Star Academy, and I'm already being called an old lion, a big wolf dog, and a little milk dog... each of these types doesn't overlap at all... Jiang Qing'e, are you trying to be served with family law?"
