Zi Ling still seemed somewhat skeptical about what Li Qing had said.
Li Qing curled his lip disdainfully and lectured without any courtesy, "Although you look grown-up, you're still too green."
"Do you know what 'scarcity makes something more valuable' means? If I hadn't made the orange cat think this elixir was so hard to come by, how could it possibly have been willing to part with so many elixirs in exchange? The rougher the seas, the pricier the fish. No matter the origin or use of my elixir, it's hard to come by!"
Shisan's mouth gradually widened, and he said in utter amazement, "Senior Brother Li, are you actually deceiving a cat?"
"Deceiving people isn't easy, but deceiving a cat should be fine, right? Not everyone is as stubborn as you, insisting on competing with a cat that's incredibly strong. You're just making trouble for yourself," Li Qing said with a smile.
