Chapter 1836 - 1435: If You Dare to Steal, You’d Better Live to Eat!

Then, the expression on Gu Changsheng’s face turned angry. She raised her hand and gave Yuan Bao a slap on the forehead, scolding him for his lack of awareness as a foodie, "Hey, do you even have the awareness of being a foodie? As a foodie, you can give up anything, but you must not lose the meat!"

Exactly!

After weighing the pros and cons, everyone would decide to abandon these culprits called food...

However, Gu Changsheng wasn’t just anyone!

She’s the kind of person who would fight to the death if someone cut off her food supply!

So, you think you can just ask her to abandon her food? No way!

Even in the midst of a pack of hungry wolves, you can’t just give up your food!

Yuan Bao, who had just been slapped, burst into tears upon hearing this!

Does he really lack the awareness of a foodie?

In fact, he was a seasoned foodie. It’s just that the situation now was a bit dire, wasn’t it? When he spoke those words, his liver ached for having to endure the pain of giving up!

"So, wife, what do we do?" The wolves were getting closer and closer, and it seemed like they were about to pull the trigger!

"What do we do? Just chill!" Gu Changsheng snorted coldly at the words.

Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue looked at Changsheng, both lowering their heads in silent agreement.

Alright!

There’s really nothing for them to do. It seems almost impossible to make this little woman of theirs give up her food!

So, instinctively, they got ready for a fight!

"You want to steal my food?" Gu Changsheng picked up the knife she used for slicing meat next to the hot pot, tossing it in her hand with a threatening look directed all around.

Among the hundreds of hungry wolves, those who came up late to the First Layer of the Star Innate Tower with Diluo Han knew about the knife in Gu Changsheng’s hand. But for those who fought their way up the tower ahead of them, it was the first time they realized Gu Changsheng actually had a knife!

Everyone knew their weapons had been sucked away on the First Layer of the Star Innate Tower. Forget about a knife, not even a needle was left!

So upon seeing this knife, they hesitated for a moment, a shiver running down their spines!

However, this hesitation was only for a moment. The sound of the hot pot was too tempting, so they quickly closed in on Gu Changsheng’s group again, even those who had already fought their way up the spiral staircase to the Third Layer of the Star Innate Tower retreated...

Who knows, after chewing dry biscuits for four days, what the smell of meat means to them!

It’s like a monk who’s been abstinent for half a lifetime encountering a fair maiden, and that maiden is even undressed!

The allure is beyond imagination!

"So it seems you really want to steal my food, but have you considered that if you have the guts to steal, you’ll need the life to eat it too..." The knife in her hand was flipping rhythmically, Gu Changsheng’s lips curled upwards into a threatening smile.

Hearing this, everyone hesitated again.

"Diluo Han, do you want to steal my food too?" Gu Changsheng surveyed the surroundings and then successfully found Diluo Han’s figure among the pack of hungry wolves.

An acquaintance!

Attracted by the smell of meat, Diluo Han was suddenly called out. He lifted his head, still wearing a look of disbelief, "I..."

He indeed wanted to grab some food!

However, confronted with Gu Changsheng’s curved lips beneath her half-mask, and her eyes full of menace, Diluo Han couldn’t quite find the words to say...

"Are you sure you want to steal my food? I said, stealing my food might be possible, but you’ve got to be alive to eat it. Diluo Han, think carefully, are you sure you want to do this?" Gu Changsheng raised an eyebrow.

Threats!

Yes, blatant threats!

There were too many attackers. Even though Gu Changsheng knew that this group would not benefit even under siege, subduing them all would require time and effort!

Therefore, breaking them from within was the best choice!

Anyway, to let her give her food away, that’s impossible!

"I..." Having the guts to steal but the life to eat, under such threats from Gu Changsheng, Diluo Han hesitated. The scene of Diluo Rong dying at Gu Changsheng’s hands replayed in his mind...

The swiftest speed imaginable, a death so incomprehensible...

Diluo Han felt that in Gu Changsheng’s eyes, he might not be more capable than Diluo Rong, so when it came to snatching food, Diluo Han suddenly felt a bit timid...

"Haha... Smart choice!" Gu Changsheng looked at Diluo Han, who had stopped moving, and let out a light laugh, glancing around the area.

Even though Diluo Han had reached the Third Layer of the Star Innate Tower before, he was quite the character. The group of tower climbers here had more or less heard of his name, so when Gu Changsheng singled him out, everyone unanimously stopped moving and turned to look at him!

Seeing that Diluo Han wasn’t moving, they naturally didn’t move either. However, there was a hint of confusion in their eyes!

What is going on?

Diluo Han, who was at least the only warrior to have survived the tower escapade, how could he be frightened by a woman?

Is he really not going to step forward?

In fact, a mere kitchen knife wasn’t enough to intimidate them, because there were so many of them!

With the temptation of all these things unharmed, no one would give up easily. Only heaven knew how much they despised those hard biscuits!

"Diluo Han, you will be grateful for your choice to stop. I could kill Diluo Rong with one move, and I can do the same to you!" Gu Changsheng looked at Diluo Han, smiling with delight. The leader role, as it turns out, is quite effective, more so than breaking the enemy from within. As she looked around at everyone, Gu Changsheng’s smile grew even wider.

The shock on their faces when they heard Diluo Rong was killed was genuine!

In reality, those who had reached the second layer of the Star Innate Tower were mostly gone, only one in five remaining, and Diluo Rong wasn’t here. There was only one possibility: he was dead!

They had originally thought that Diluo Rong, being Diluo Han’s lackey, was besieged by others and died. However, they didn’t expect he died at the hands of this woman. Not only did he die from her hands, but he was also killed with one move!

Instant kill!

Being capable of instantly killing Diluo Rong right in front of Diluo Han, what sort of power is this?

The crowd suddenly hesitated a bit!

Gu Changsheng was very satisfied with their hesitation; this was the result she wanted!

"Perhaps, you think you’re far more capable than Diluo Han, but... to me, it’s just a few more moves!" Gu Changsheng looked around, smiling calmly. She blew on the kitchen knife in her hand and said spiritedly, "Those who interrupt my meals don’t usually end well. This knife cuts vegetables with ease, slicing meat would be a breeze too. If you believe your necks are tougher than those of lambs waiting for slaughter, go ahead, I don’t mind chopping you up with this knife! Afterwards, I could just wash it off; our household comes prepared with cleaning stones!"

Even though Gu Changsheng’s words sounded so casual, they had an enhanced intimidating effect on everyone!

Especially under the uncertain and suspicious stares of the crowd, Diluo Han actually stepped back!

Diluo Han backed down!

What does that imply?

It implies that Diluo Han was afraid, he was intimidated!

What kind of person is Diluo Han? He is a legitimate warrior!

If even he admits to being intimidated, then there must be some truth to this woman’s words!

Therefore, for a moment, indeed not many dared to make a move!

Although the aroma of the meat was tempting, food is just food. If you lose your life, what is there left to eat?

Gu Changsheng was even more pleased with their hesitation. She absent-mindedly put away her knife and tied it to her waist, blinking her innocent big eyes as she looked at the hesitant hungry wolves around, saying, "So, have you decided to value your life over snatching food? I must say, you all are quite clever, deciding not to court death after all..."

Though Gu Changsheng’s words were quite provocative, even Yuan Bao couldn’t bear to watch. Unable to hold back, he stepped forward, tugged at his wife’s sleeve, and said, "Darling, ease up a bit. Let’s not stir trouble..."

"Ah? Alright then..." Gu Changsheng, hearing this, blinked her eyes and decided to heed Yuan Bao’s advice. She casually waved her hand around, saying, "Well then, since you’ve decided not to snatch, do what you need to do! Fight if you must, kill if you will! Stop staring at us, lest it spoils my appetite!"

After saying this, Gu Changsheng no longer gave them a glance, turned and walked back to her own hotpot. She called out to Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue, "What are you standing there for? We haven’t finished eating! Continue!"

"You..." Zhou Mu raised his hand to rub his forehead, his divine residence-like face full of helplessness, yet he walked back to Gu Changsheng’s side as he was told.

"Big obedience!" Shi Wujue just said this one sentence and returned to the hotpot...

Then...

Then Gu Changsheng and her group started their delightful hotpot time again...

Meat, vegetables, and more, were continuously thrown into the pot, instantly making the aroma even richer.

The Holy Envoy Child, packed in a sack and with a dry biscuit hanging around his neck that had a bite taken out of it, wore an expressionless little face. He looked around at the people who didn’t dare to move, then at Gu Changsheng, with eyes showing a mix of disbelief and indignation. He said, "Is that it?"

He had anticipated a great conflict due to the person carrying so much food in the formation, believing it would inevitably incite public anger and lead to a fight, yet the public anger was there, but the conflict ceased abruptly?
