After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 425

Chapter 425: The Number One Trouble Maker of Sanqing Temple, Deserving of the Name!
With milk still lingering at the corner of her mouth, the little girl stood on the platform, not as tall as them, yet exuding unparalleled dominance and boldness.

However, after the scene just now, no one dared to underestimate Zhouzhou. Ma Hao, as the leader of the Lion team, had undeniable strength.

Yet, he was defeated by Zhouzhou, even without holding back. Hence, everyone became more cautious towards Zhouzhou.

After a few seconds, someone finally spoke up, their voice somewhat familiar. Zhouzhou turned to look and was surprised to see Luo Jin. Excitedly, he exclaimed, “Brother Fox, come quickly!”

However, Luo Jin remained motionless, calmly stating, “I abstain and concede.”

He turned to Ye Lingfeng, eyebrows raised in provocation. Knowing he didn’t want Zhouzhou to join, he deliberately helped her.

Seeing through his intentions, a smile tugged at Ye Lingfeng’s lips, though it didn’t reach his eyes.

With a casual tone, he remarked, “Let’s move on to the next person. Whether he goes up or not, the outcome will be the same. Let’s just save him some face.”

Implied was his reluctance to participate due to fear of embarrassment. Luo Jin’s smile froze, his expression instantly darkening.

Zhouzhou grinned, “Alright then, I won’t fight Brother Fox. It’s not easy for him to recover from his injuries.”

This remark elicited low chuckles from the others, reminiscent of Luo Jin’s previous defeat by Ye Lingfeng.

Luo Jin’s face turned completely dark. These two, father and daughter, were indeed not good people.

Having gained no advantage verbally, he leaned against a pillar, too lazy to speak further.

Finally, Chen Tuo intervened, “Let me, let me. I’ll spar with Master Zhou.”

“Sure,” Zhouzhou didn’t mind who went first; they would all be defeated by her anyway! Such was her confidence!

Chen Tuo ascended the platform, and as Zhao Xinghua announced the start, Zhouzhou immediately launched her attack.

Previously unable to defeat Zhouzhou, let alone the trained Zhouzhou now, Chen Tuo was well aware of this. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been so persistent in wanting Zhouzhou to join.

This time, he exerted all his strength but couldn’t hold out against Zhouzhou for long.

“Bang!” Zhouzhou’s kick sent Chen Tuo flying, only halting when he collided with the edge of the barrier.

Coughing lightly, Chen Tuo propped himself up and gave Zhouzhou a thumbs-up, “Impressive, Master Zhou. You’re getting stronger.”

“Of course!” Zhouzhou proudly waved at Ye Lingfeng, then dashed towards him, her eyes shining, “Dad, I’m one step closer to protecting you.”

The little girl smiled, her eyes sparkling with sincerity and joy, leaving Ye Lingfeng momentarily stunned. He reached out to pat her head, feeling a mix of emotions.

For Zhouzhou, it was just a casual remark to him, yet she soon ran back to the skinny monkey, cradling her bottle as she resumed drinking.

Ma Hao couldn’t help but chuckle, walking over to Ye Lingfeng and patting him on the arm, “You know, I suddenly feel that it’s not a bad idea for Zhouzhou to join. With you around, you’ll definitely protect her. She doesn’t have to participate in missions until she’s eighteen. Let her have fun here, consider it martial arts practice, she can still protect herself. By the time she’s eighteen, she might want to quit.”

After all, by fifteen, the excitement would likely have worn off. However, Ye Lingfeng shook his head, his expression somewhat complicated.

“You don’t understand Zhouzhou. Trouble seems to find her easily. Every time, she unwittingly stumbles into trouble.”

Like when he was on a mission before, he had just met Zhouzhou and didn’t even know she was his daughter, yet she still managed to get in the way.

Furthermore, even if Zhao Xinghua said she didn’t have to participate in missions, in fifteen years, what if she suddenly decided to join?

There would still be too much danger. The main issue was, he didn’t trust Zhouzhou.

The title of the Number One Trouble Maker of Sanqing Temple was not just for show. She was only obedient in front of Qin Lie.

Here, well, it was a different story. Ye Lingfeng couldn’t help but understand Zhouzhou well in this regard.

At this moment, Zhouzhou had no idea that her dear old dad had already figured her out. After finishing her milk, she resumed sparring with others, none of whom were backing down.

Even if they knew they couldn’t beat her, they still wanted to compete. Hence, one by one, the others took their turns to challenge her.

Zhouzhou was also delighted to have the opportunity to train, treasuring it deeply. Every punch landed solidly, every kick was grounded and real, without a hint of falsehood.

Before long, she had defeated the remaining nine individuals, each one succumbing to her prowess.

Finally, her gaze settled on Ye Lingfeng, and the others followed suit, all eyes turning towards him.

He was the only one left.

Pinching his brow, Ye Lingfeng glanced at the group of people massaging their knees. He sighed inwardly, having trained them for days, yet they still couldn’t match Zhouzhou.

Observing Zhouzhou’s excitement, he spoke up, “Take a half-hour break. I won’t take advantage of you.”

Unexpectedly, Zhouzhou waved her little hand dismissively, “No need, five minutes is enough.”

With that, she sat on the ground, grabbed a bag of snacks, and indulged in them eagerly.

The skinny monkey also refilled her bottle of milk, flattering her as he massaged her shoulders, “Boss, you’re amazing!”

Although she had previously defeated them, he hadn’t expected her to defeat everyone, including Chen Tuo and Ma Hao, who were among the top ten on the island.

Even though she might still be unable to beat Ye Lingfeng in the end, he thought she was already very impressive. After all, she was only five years old.

He glanced discreetly at Ye Lingfeng and whispered to Zhouzhou, “Boss, you must keep it up. Our Wealthy Team can’t do without you.”

With her talent, given time, their Wealthy Team might even surpass the Dragon team.

In this day and age, who didn’t have some ambition? He had given up hope for himself, but having a formidable boss was also a good thing.

Zhouzhou nodded vigorously, “Okay. I’ll work hard.”

With that, she took a big gulp of milk. After she had eaten and drunk her fill, she clapped her hands and stood up, “Dad, let’s have a competition.”

The others also moved closer, wanting a clearer view. The most exciting moment was about to arrive.

Ye Lingfeng nodded without saying much.

Zhao Xinghua glanced at them and then declared, “Alright, let the competition begin. It’s still a one-on-one format.”

There was no need to emphasize that, no matter what, Ye Lingfeng would not harm Zhouzhou.

With that said, he stepped back and announced, “Begin.”

As soon as he finished speaking, two figures, one large and one small, immediately sprang into action…
