Chapter 56: I Like Power
Chapter 56: I Like Power
The system notified the host of their anger level.
[Host, didn't you say you were ready?]
Shen Jinxi ignored the system, her face dark as she browsed the group messages. The harsh words were like sharp blades, piercing her heart again and again.
She exhaled a breath of stale air, clenched her fists, and let her fingernails scratch her palms. The burning pain brought her back to her senses, allowing her to calm down briefly.
"She's making such a fuss over losing just one eye. I guess I'm too soft-hearted. If I had known it would be like this, I should have lured the A-level beast over first, killed her beast husband, and then gone to find Sang Tian and the others."
[System: Host, your idea is too dangerous. If any beastmen die, it will attract the attention of the Stardust.]
The system's persuasion was like water off a duck's back to Shen Jinxi, having no effect whatsoever.
Shen Jinxi became increasingly annoyed, and swept everything off the table with a wave of her hand, smashing bottles and jars on the ground, leaving a mess.
[System: Host, think positively; at least you've achieved your goal.]
Shen Jinxi's anger subsided a little when she thought about Que Shiwen's promotion to A-level. What did respect matter? As long as she won first place in this promotion competition and went from third to first, those opportunists would eventually come up to her obediently.

When Sang Tian got home, the first thing she did was turn on the air conditioner. When she came out of the bathroom after taking a shower, the heat had just opened her pores when the cold air entered her body.
She closed her eyes comfortably, spread her arms, and lay down on the soft, springy bed.
After sleeping in a sleeping bag for three days, I can finally feel my way onto the bed.
The moment her head touched the pillow, she fell asleep instantly, her brow relaxed, her seaweed-like black hair scattered on the pillow, her sleeping posture serene.
When Sang Tian opened her eyes again, it was already dark. She had been awakened by a knocking sound at the door.
"Dinner's ready, come eat." It was Bi Jingyan's voice. This was the first time he had come upstairs to call her for dinner. He knocked on the door a few times, but there was no response from inside.
Sang Tian stretched on the bed, her sweet voice carrying a hint of languor, "Okay, I'll be right there."
She got out of bed, washed her face, and prepared to go downstairs. She almost bumped into Bi Jingyan when she opened the door.
Sang Tian took a half step back, terrified. "Your new side job is being a doorman?"
"I've knocked on the door so many times, but you haven't woken up. I'm worried you've passed out in your sleep."
So you're here to act as a door god and protect me from passing out in my sleep?
Sang Tian always managed to break down Bi Jingyan's defenses with just a few words. Her eyes were filled with laughter as she looked at the little bird that was about to go crazy, and her smile deepened.
During the meal, Sang Tian noticed that the atmosphere was unusually serious. She couldn't understand why these five men were looking so sullen when she had achieved an A grade and was one step closer to her goal of divorce.
"Tian Tian, eat more. You haven't eaten well for three days, and your face has become sunken." Li Su basically didn't participate in other people's conversations except when talking to Sang Tian.
Sang Tian's eyes widened in shock. She put down her chopsticks and touched her face. "Really?"
"That's great! I need to eat less. I gained a little weight a few days ago, all because Bi Jingyan's cooking is so good. It makes me crave pork."
She could feel the donut getting thicker as she sat down; only her stomach and mouth knew the bittersweet taste of it all.
Sang Tian handed the mountain of meat back to Li Su, saying, "Eat more, I like strong men."
As soon as the words were spoken, the four of them exchanged knowing glances as Wu Lanyuan, who was devouring meat, was the strongest among the five.
"By the way, I'm going to the market tomorrow. Can you come with me?" Sang Tian asked Bai Mingchen.
She was going to deliver the first batch of pre-ordered valerian later.
The valerian grew faster than she had expected; in just a few days, it had all grown to near maturity and met the standards for sale. As for the Red Desert Flower, Yun Duan had quoted a price of eight thousand spirit crystals per plant, but she wasn't sure how much it would actually sell for and planned to go to the market to check it out.
Let's see if we can try our luck and harvest some other precious medicinal herbs to cultivate.
Bai Mingchen had experience in this area, which is why Sang Tian invited him to go with her.
"Okay, I'll go with you wherever you want." Bai Mingchen raised an eyebrow, his smug expression revealing undisguised doting and love in his eyes as he looked at her.
Li Su put down her chopsticks, curled her lips in a mocking smile, and spoke in an unfriendly tone.
"I can go with her, so there's no need to trouble you, sir."
"Young man, don't be too possessive. This is also our mistress. If you want to monopolize her, you should ask her if she is willing. Besides, this is her own idea."
Sang Tian has made it clear that she doesn't like others interfering with her decisions.
He used this to his advantage, hoping to make her dislike Li Su.
Sang Tian noticed Li Su's unpleasant expression, wanted to explain, but felt it was unnecessary.
"I have a reason for looking for Bai Mingchen, you don't need to overthink it."
A fire ignited in Li Su's chest, burning ever brighter, especially when he heard Sang Tian agree with Bai Mingchen; the flames almost consumed his reason.
"I'm full, you can continue." Li Su stood up, left the table with those words.
Bai Mingchen watched his departing figure, shook his head and sighed, "Young people are just too hot-tempered. If they dare to get angry at the female master now, they'll dare to beat her up later."
Sang Tian's lips twitched. Was it really that serious? Li Su didn't seem like the type to commit domestic violence.
Besides, in the Beast World Continent, isn't domestic violence against the female master a serious crime?
"It's not as serious as you make it out to be. Li Su is perfectly fine," Sang Tian said belatedly in defense.
Qingzhi calmly took a sip of soup, his expression serious. "He became a lord by killing hundreds of his own kind. The Miru Sea is a polluted sea, and its toxicity is much higher than other seas. Who knows what kind of proper beastmen can be cultivated there?"
This was the first time Sang Tian had heard about Li Su's past. The key phrase "killed hundreds of his own kind" was imprinted in his mind and lingered for a long time.
Right now, a scene of everyone kicking someone when they're down is unfolding.
Bi Jingyan suddenly said dryly, "He is the most dangerous person among us. He is the first choice for divorce."
For the first three days, whenever he had even the slightest intimate contact with Sang Tian, Li Su's eyes were like boning knives, as if he wanted to tear him apart.
So no wonder he's joining in the fun now; it's just that Li Su is too domineering and wants to completely possess Sang Tian.
In the second half of the event, Sang Tian heard nothing but bad things about Li Su. She was a little confused. Was this still the Li Su she knew?
After finishing her meal, she returned to her room to prepare to ship the first batch of goods, as a way to digest her food.
She opened the valerian order group that she hadn't opened in a long time and found that everyone in the group was discussing Shen Jinxi. Someone had forwarded the message from another group.
Shen Jinxi's reputation plummeted, and the group was filled with insults, some of whom were trying to whitewash Shen Jinxi and blame Sang Tian for the mistakes.
If Sang Tian hadn't made a mistake, Shen Jinxi wouldn't have chosen this method to improve her mental strength.
Some people say that this was a trick she gave to Shen Jinxi. The healing beauty couldn't have come up with such a dark and harmful scheme. Only Sang Tian, who has no superpowers, is full of bad intentions.
