"Yun Qingyan, don't you think you're being really shameless?!"
"How could Qingxuan Academy accept a student as greedy and shameless as you?!"
All sorts of angry and accusatory voices came at her at the same time.
They had run into extremely few high-level Magical Beasts and they didn't run into many low-level Magical Beasts either. It was both a good thing and a bad thing for these trainees.
The good part was that they weren't in too much danger, and the bad part was that this way, they reaped very few rewards.
Ten Third or Fourth Stage Magical Beast Gem Cores was asking for half of whatever Lin Wanyue had.
After hearing the outburst from everyone else, Lin Wanyue clenched her teeth. "Qingyan, this request of yours…"
"You don't have enough? First or Second Stage Magical Beast Gem Cores will do too." Yun Qingyan completely ignored the cries of the people around her. She folded her arms and looked rather curiously at Lin Wanyue.
"Well… once the Magical Beast Gem Cores are placed within the point bangles, I can't take them out again," Lin Wanyue said as she bit her lower lip. Her initial happiness when she heard the team berate Yun Qingyan earlier turned into awkwardness. She was just saying that for the sake of saying it and didn't actually intend to give Yun Qingyan any of the gem cores she had, and she didn't have any on hand now.
Even though Yun Qingyan was weak and timid, she was brought up with the pride of the Yun family well etched into her bones. Besides her shameless harassment of Baili Qingxue, this girl was filled with a worthless sort of pride in her bones.
Lin Wanyue thought that given Yun Qingyan's personality, she wouldn't really ask for Lin Wanyue to help her after hearing her offer. She didn't expect Yun Qingyan to react this way at all.
"You don't even have First or Second Stage gem cores?" Yun Qingyan raised an eyebrow and the corner of her eye slanted upwards. She had a disdainful look on her face and her red lips smiled sarcastically. "Since you didn't really intend to help, then don't make a fuss here and gain pity points from the rest."
"I…" After her thoughts had been exposed, Lin Wanyue was feeling extremely awkward. Her pretty almond-shaped eyes immediately became teary and her tears looked like they might fall anytime. These watery eyes made everyone feel for her.
She was dressed in white like a fairy, and her teary-eyed look on her gentle and affectionate face immediately gained everyone's sympathy. All the suspicion in their hearts dissipated in an instant.
After looking at Yun Qingyan's face that was ugly as a demon's, they felt that her crime of making the beautiful Lin Wanyue cry even more unforgivable.
It was true that ugly women always made trouble.
Baili Qingxue quietly watched this scene and he clenched the fists hidden inside his snow-white sleeves, then relaxed them again. He didn't know how to settle this matter.
Yun Qingyan had become everyone's target once again.
"Yun Qingyan, you really don't know what's good for you! Senior Wanyue was just showing concern for you!"
"What a heartless woman! You have no talent and you have no morals either! Only Fatty Yu is blind enough to keep following you around."
"That's right, where's Fatty Yu?" someone suddenly remembered there was supposed to be one more person with Yun Qingyan.
Fatty Yu wasn't back yet.
Everyone immediately turned to look at Yun Qingyan. She was the one who instructed Fatty Yu to leave the team, so now that he wasn't around, it was only natural for them to look at her.
"Don't tell me he's run into some danger?"
"Yun Qingyan, what on earth is wrong with you? How could you abandon your teammate and come back on your own?"
"Tsk," Li Hu snorted coldly. "The incident with the Bloodsucking Magical Vine made things very clear, didn't it? She waited until the Magical Vine was destroyed before seizing the chance to talk about the characteristics of a Bloodsucking Magical Vine, and was willing to just let me die. Yun Qingyan is a heartless person with no conscience at all. Fatty Yu was too silly, he listened to her and went along with her. Look at what's happened now!"
There was no worry or concern for Fatty Yu in his words at all. His words only carried malice towards Yun Qingyan and a sarcastic gleefulness for her misfortune.
"Li Hu, don't say things like that. It's more important to look for Fatty Yu now," someone else said anxiously.
While everyone was still discussing this matter and looking accusatorily at Yun Qingyan, the sound of someone panting came from the forest, and it was accompanied by a loud shout that was so excited that he was beside himself with joy.
"Hey! Fatty Yu is back!"
