"Snap." Lu Zhaozhao opened Cheng Sangji's hand and saw a crack appear on his perfect expression, and she suddenly felt relieved.

But it was only at that moment, in the blink of an eye, that he returned to his original expression.

"You should be well aware that the monsters on this level pose no threat to us, but the next level is far beyond our realm. If you want to get more points, we need to cooperate and split the profits 50-50 to get the highest profit."

Cheng Sangji bent down to look her in the eye. Seeing she didn't say anything, he continued to persuade her, "If you're really worried, I'll give you the inner core of the first monster I hunt, and I'll take the second. And so on. You'll definitely get as much as I do. How about that?"

Lu Zhaozhao rubbed his fingers together, pondered for a moment, and asked, "Aren't your eight clans very united? What about the others?"

Cheng Sangjie was silent for a long time before saying, "Nan Rongrui and Changyu Lanshan are seriously injured and are still recuperating. They are not suitable for risking their lives. Tushan Xixiang needs to take care of them. Jie Yi and Qianhe are not strong enough, so I'm afraid they won't be able to play a role if they go. As for the others, to be honest, we haven't met them since we came in."

"Well, then, I am indeed the most suitable candidate. But," Lu Zhaozhao paused, approached him, smiled, and whispered, "I don't believe you."

She stood up straight, lowered her eyelids, and looked at Cheng Sangjie expressionlessly: "Last time, we said we were forming an alliance, but you guys were really plotting against me. I don't have any other advantages, but I do understand the principle that once bitten by a snake, you'll be afraid of the rope for ten years."

"Cheng Sangjie, has anyone ever told you that you're not good at lying? You definitely have other options, but you came to me. Our relationship isn't that good. So, I refuse to cooperate."

After saying that, she turned around and left.

Cheng Sangji caught up with her and grabbed her wrist, but she shook it off and he stood in front of her.

Lu Zhaozhao was a little impatient, frowning and saying in a somewhat aggressive tone: "Get out of the way!"

Cheng Sangjie didn't move. He bit his lower lip and looked at Lu Zhaozhao, his face full of distress.

Lu Zhaozhao didn't know why he was doing this, so he drew his sword and was about to fight him.

"Second brother!"

Nan Rongrui's voice sounded at the right time, preventing a fierce battle.

She frowned and looked at Lu Zhaozhao with dissatisfaction, holding Cheng Sangjie tightly, as if she was afraid that he would be hurt.

"Brother, have you fought with her?" She looked at Cheng Sangjie nervously and shouted to Lu Zhaozhao anxiously, "Didn't we reach an agreement to stop the war last time? If you are dissatisfied, come to me. I will take responsibility for my own actions."

Lu Zhaozhao was speechless and said in a bad tone, "If a fight really breaks out, I'm afraid you won't even have enough life left. Also, it was your second brother who came to me to discuss cooperation, but as you wished, I refused."

"You're talking nonsense!" Nan Rongrui was completely unconvinced. "Who are you? How can you be worthy of my brother personally seeking cooperation? He has us!"

"Yes, why?" Lu Zhaozhao looked at Cheng Sangjie with amusement.

Cheng Sangjie avoided her gaze and asked Nan Rongrui in a low voice: "Why are you here? Where is Tushan Xixiang?"

"You haven't been home for so long, I was a little worried, so I came out." Nan Rongrui replied.

Lu Zhaozhao was in no mood to watch the drama of brotherly love, so she changed direction and was about to leave. Cheng Sangjie saw her leaving and seemed to want to chase her, but was held tightly by Nan Rongrui.

Just as he walked a short distance, another person appeared in front of him. Lu Zhaozhao looked at Tu Shanxixiang in front of him and said unhappily: "Come to fight?"

He shook his head.

"Then get out of the way."

He still shook his head.

"..."

Lu Zhaozhao took a deep breath and laughed out of anger. She was wondering if she was too polite in her daily life, which made them dare to stop her one by one.

Tu Shanxixiang seemed to sense that the atmosphere was not right and quickly added, "I have something to tell you."

Lu Zhaozhao looked at him coldly with the corner of his mouth drooping, motioning him to continue.

"My second brother always likes to keep some things to himself, but I think that's wrong because people often misunderstand him."

"Why, do you want to help him?"

Tu Shan Xi Xiang nodded and said, "Second Brother wants to cooperate with you, just to act together with you, without any other calculations."

"Why should I trust you?"

"I don't lie."

"Why should I trust you?"

"What I said is real."

"Why should I trust you?"

"..."

This time it was Tushan Xixiang's turn to remain silent. He seemed to not know how to convince the person in front of him.

Just as he was scratching his head, someone came to rescue him.

Cheng Sangjie hurried over after dealing with Nan Rongrui. He found the atmosphere a bit awkward, but he didn't know what had just been said, and was a little at a loss for a moment.

Nan Rongrui's expression was a little stiff. He looked at Lu Zhaozhao with surprise, opened his mouth but didn't say much.

There was an awkward atmosphere in the air. There were many people present, but no one spoke.

"Well, it's getting late. Why don't we go back to our own homes?" Lu Zhaozhao said uncertainly.

Nan Rongrui's face turned pale, he bit his lower lip, closed his eyes and made up his mind, and said with a bold move: "I agree to cooperate!"

Under Lu Zhaozhao's gaze, which was like looking at an idiot, he broke down and yelled, "You'd better not have any inappropriate thoughts!"

"Is there a possibility that I don't want to cooperate with you?"
