Chapter 32

Today is Sunday, and once again it's the lascivious ranking push night. There must be three updates. Are the brothers and sisters of the "Monster Hunting Team" ready?

…………

A hundred pounds of cement per bag, he carried six bags at once, still moving swiftly.

He sifted through piles of sand without a break for two hours.

He loaded red bricks onto a cart and ran through the construction site like the wind.

He mixed cement and sand with water, and wherever it was needed, he spread it with a hoe. Occasionally, when the masons couldn't keep up, he even took up a trowel to lay bricks, his skilled and rapid movements making even the masons with over twenty years of experience feel ashamed and inferior.

Yue Xi watched in amazement.

Over three hours of continuous, super-intense work, without a single break, as if his stamina was endless and his strength was extraordinary. Even the world's most elite warriors couldn't have such endurance.

Working continuously for three hours isn't surprising, even working without sleep for three days wouldn't be a problem, but the key is that Liu Menglong worked 'continuously' and 'without interruption' for three hours, and it was 'intense' work.

Imagine a laborer on a construction site, working without a single second of rest, completely at high intensity and with great strength, and moving quickly with excellent quality. This is truly terrifying.

Yue Xi had never seen anyone like this, and no one in the world could have seen such a person.

Endless stamina? Could Big Brother not be a dual-element ability user but a triple-element ability user? But there has never been a triple-element ability user in history! Could Big Brother not be the most useless of the useless, but the most talented of the talented?

"Stunned, right?" The foreman had walked up to Yue Xi at some point.

"Indeed!" Yue Xi turned to look at the foreman, not hiding her surprise: "I didn't expect Big Brother to be so capable."

The foreman, with his round belly, chuckled: "Little girl, your boyfriend is quite something. He can do the work of ten people, and he can earn two thousand yuan a day. Following him won't be a loss."

Yue Xi giggled: "Of course, otherwise I wouldn't have chased after him. Big Brother has many more strengths you don't know about!"

Seeing Yue Xi's satisfied smile, the foreman sighed inwardly: Little Liu is truly blessed, this girl is much better than the brats in my relatives' families.

Time passed, and it was 12 o'clock. With the foreman's shout to start the meal, all the workers stopped and rushed to the water pool.

Yue Xi came to Liu Menglong's side, seeing everyone heading in one direction, she blinked: "Big Brother, where are they going?"

"To wash hands and face." Liu Menglong also stopped. The morning's hard work had increased his proficiency by 3%. If precise to the decimal, it was about 3.5% or 3.6%, roughly the same as yesterday. Liu Menglong could only say it was so-so. After all, thanks to last night's Yue Chang and this morning's Chen Zongrui, he had not only leveled up three times but also unlocked his second life profession, making his attributes stronger than yesterday. Yet, he only gained a few percent proficiency this morning, which wasn't much.

Wiping the sweat from his face, Liu Menglong said: "Let's go! I'll take you home after the meal."

"What for?" Yue Xi pouted: "Does Big Brother dislike me?"

"Too much dust, it's not suitable for you here." Saying that, Liu Menglong walked towards the water pool.

Yue Xi pouted: "Fine, I'll go. You're so stingy."

Compared to the meals made by Nalan Ruyue, the food on the construction site was very ordinary, but Yue Xi ate with great relish, which surprised Liu Menglong a bit: "Is the boxed meal that good?"

"It's pretty good!" Yue Xi giggled, licking a grain of rice from the corner of her mouth: "Eating isn't just about the taste, but the feeling and atmosphere." She then looked at the construction workers around her, lifted her little bottom, and sat closer to Liu Menglong: "Being with Big Brother is the feeling, and eating with so many people is the atmosphere. With both the feeling and atmosphere, even cornbread and wild vegetables would taste good."

"Spoken well!" A few of the nearby workers cheered, one of them looking at Yue Xi with fondness: "Little Liu, your girlfriend is great. Girls like her are rare these days, you should cherish her!"

"Right, right!" Another worker chuckled, showing his yellowed teeth: "Beauty, if Brother Liu doesn't want you, you can consider me. I'll treat you like a goddess."

"Did you hear that!" Yue Xi, flattered, winked at Liu Menglong: "Darling, you should cherish me well in the future."

Liu Menglong, chewing on rice and shredded potatoes, spat out a word: "Get lost."

"Hmph!"

After lunch, Liu Menglong took Yue Xi home. Before leaving, almost all the workers came to see them off.

"Little girl, come back and play again!"

"Girl, if Brother Liu bullies you, tell me. I can't beat him, but I can definitely hit him from behind."

"Don't talk nonsense! Little Liu, treat Little Yue well. Good girls like her are rare."

The words of the workers sounded particularly harsh to Liu Menglong, but Yue Xi looked very pleased, waving frequently: "Thank you all, I'll come back to play again."

"Promise, you must come back!"

"Next time I'll bring you our family's traditional sticky rice cake, it'll make your mouth water."

Amidst the noise, Liu Menglong started the car and left the construction site. After driving far away, he said coolly: "Feeling very pleased with yourself?"

"Of course." Yue Xi was indeed pleased. Being seen off by over a hundred people was something she had never experienced before. It gave her a sense of superiority.

"Let's leave it at that for today." Liu Menglong didn't want to argue with her, and asked: "Did you complete your mission?"

"What mission?" The sudden change in topic caught Yue Xi off guard.

"The thing you and Chang Chang did the other day."

"Oh." Yue Xi tilted her head, thinking: "It's probably not finished yet!"

Not finished yet?

Liu Menglong frowned: "How much longer will it take?"

"I'm not sure." Yue Xi shook her head: "The plan was made by Chang Chang, I'm only responsible for the specific actions. We've completed about half of it, with a little more to go."

Liu Menglong nodded, thinking for a moment: "After completing the mission, you'll leave?"

"Uh-huh." Yue Xi's mood fluctuated slightly, her eyes secretly glancing at Liu Menglong, then looking forward, she said softly: "Big Brother, if I and my sister leave, will you miss us?"

"Sure."

"Really!?" Yue Xi turned to look at him, her face full of surprise.

"Uh-huh." Liu Menglong looked forward, saying coolly: "I also want to get more abilities from you. Of course, I'll miss you if you leave."

"You go to hell!" Feeling cheated, Yue Xi hated herself. How could she be moved by such a heartless person? It's too despicable, it's making me so angry.

"Just joking." Seeing Yue Xi's angry face, Liu Menglong smiled faintly: "I miss you because you are my friends, and during this time..." His large hand landed on Yue Xi's head, gently rubbing it: "I've always treated you like family. How could I not miss you if you leave?"

"Really?" Having been fooled once, Yue Xi didn't dare to believe him easily, turning to look at him with a hint of disbelief in her eyes.

"Of course." He withdrew his hand: "You're such a mischievous little sister, I really don't know if you'll cause trouble everywhere after you leave. Tianfu and Longcheng are so far away, I won't be able to help if something happens."

"I won't cause trouble!" Yue Xi giggled, grabbing Liu Menglong's hand and placing it back on her head: "When I bully people, I do it thoroughly so they can't take revenge. I won't cause trouble."

"..." Liu Menglong glanced at her speechlessly, gently rubbing her head, making Yue Xi close her eyes in comfort.

"By the way." Enjoying Liu Menglong's touch, Yue Xi suddenly remembered: "Big Brother, you said you had something else to do, and you wouldn't consider personal matters until it was done. You dodged it this morning, but you can't dodge it this time."

"Still remember?" Liu Menglong was a bit surprised, not expecting her to remember.

"Of course." Yue Xi huffed: "Big Brother, you can't run away this time, speak up!"

Liu Menglong shook his head: "Even if I tell you, you won't be able to help, so I won't say it."

"Who says!" Yue Xi was very不服气 (unwilling to admit defeat): "I might not dare to say it, but in this world, there's nothing I can't do. Big Brother, just say it, as long as you can say it, I can do it."

Liu Menglong looked at Yue Xi, and Yue Xi looked back at him. They stared at each other, neither backing down.

After a long time, Liu Menglong withdrew his gaze and said coolly: "I want you to kill the current crown prince. Can you do it?"
