“Three cups of Elves Prestige, one of them super iced”
Liu Miumiu called out to the maid, lively and enthusiastic.
In contrast to her, Lord of Han Yue City seemed like a cold lady from a noble family. Yet, after the brief conversation, she didn’t seem unreachable. She was not as intimidating as she appeared.
“Boss Han Yue, I have heard a lot about you. Now, at last, I am finally able to meet you in person.” Mu Yuan said sincerely. Every time he referred to his research materials, the word ‘Lord of Han Yue City’ would appear frequently. He had lost count of the number of times he heard about her.
There were tales about the Lord of Han Yue City everywhere.
In fact, she had a large number of fans, especially among females. The fan club following Sister Cold Moon was even a top-tier force within the Tai Xuan Alliance. He might also have a fan club of his own within the Great Lord of Tianyuan…maybe?
The Lord of Han Yue City… Liu Xiyue, was studying Mu Yuan in return.
Mu Yuan was no stranger to her, in fact, she had heard so much about him that it was making her ears numb.
When her sister first mentioned about the ‘Legendary Figure Slime’ and the ‘Invincible Skeleton General of the Era’, she didn’t believe it. Not that she didn’t trust her sister, but rather she didn’t believe in Liu Miumiu’s judgement and vision.
Later, when Lord Tianyuan surpassed Lord Wangba and her sister to top the Gold List and won the title of the most golden New King, she didn’t think much about it, considering him as a promising youth.
Until,
Many speculated that Lord Tianyuan wasn’t exactly a second-generation player with a powerful background; Liu Xiyue was genuinely surprised.
After all, she wasn’t a second-generation player herself, she just came from a wealthy family. Her background was ordinary overall.
She made her name from scratch, topped the charts, and then marched on triumphantly.
Lord Tianyuan, who suppressed several top-tier second-generation players, could possibly be as talented as she was-!
“I have been paying attention to you as well. The blue-haired girl who surpassed all her competitors in the Resource Secret Realm, if I’m not mistaken, she’s the Slime you were talking about.”
Considering what Liu Miumiu said about the legendary figure of the Slime, alongside her encounters with other unique beings, she came to conclude the only truth through observation, reasoning and simulation.
Seeing Mu Yuan’s slight surprise, the comers of Liu Xiyue’s mouth raised into a small smirk.
Indeed, her deduction was correct. Who would dare to say that she only knew how to swing a sword from south to north?
With a huff, she said, “You seem to be more inclined towards being an independent lord. However, I can offer you an investment without any contract to sign. Basically, it’s a free offer, a gift.”
Mu Yuan:”!!!” Hiss
This was not surprise, but fear.
It’s true that the Lord of Han Yue City is a rich lady, but even a rich lady can have ulterior motives. The blue child needs to learn how to protect himself when he’s away from home.
“Don’t worry, it’s truly free. Well…let me put it this way, between our Tai Xuan Alliance and the empires such as Shen Yao and Yong Xing, resources often are allocated according to the competitions among young lords. One or two years from now, you’ll definitely be capable enough to hold such a position.
“In the future, you might be able to help in bigger ways. Just consider it as an upliftment investment from me, your sister, to a promising junior. Just owe me a favor in return.”
Mu Yuan originally wanted to reject, but she… the Lord of Han Yue City was offering too much, and it was precisely what he needed.
‘Miracle Blueprint: Domain Interferer’
‘Category: Excellence’
‘Description: After it’s built, a special domain field will form, which can block and interfere with most observation, deduction, and divination methods.’
This is an anti-peeping artifact!
Since Mu Yuan had witnessed the wonders of the Astronomical Society, he felt a sense of urgency. How many more magical methods existed in this world?
At the moment, Tianyuan Territory really isn’t worth foreign forces to use strong divination methods. But what if… Tianyuan Territory draws more and more attention and shines brightly in the night sky?
Let’s not talk about the distance. On the day of the festival, he too would find it hard not to draw attention.
He wanted to keep a low profile. However, often times, the environment did not allow him to do so.
This Miracle Blueprint, as well as the full set of building materials, is something that he really wants.
Rich lady, generous, hungry.
“No, this blueprint is an investment from the Officials.” The rich lady of the Cold Moon explains, “What’s to follow is my personal investment.”
Saying that, she took out a pile of items glowing with a seductive light.
The most valuable of them were the three rare items radiating a faint blue halo.
“Elite level Remnant Souls!”
“How about it? It’s a nice investment, right?”
What is it that a lord with a limited background needs the most? They need everything. But as long as they have the most crucial High-order Troops, they could slowly earn all the other lacking materials by themselves.
And the earlier they obtain the High-order Troops, the more time they can save, possibly reducing several months or even years of detouring.
When Liu Xiyue comes across promising juniors she admires, she is always this generous and caring.
The corners of her mouth slightly rose, like a magnificent crescent moon. But… the surprised, excited, thrilled, trembling, teary expressions she expected didn’t appear on this handsome young man’s face.
Only the gaze of hesitation floated within Tianyuan’s eyes. Even though he didn’t speak, she felt as if she saw him think: is this it?
How could a newcomer show a slight color of disappointment towards the Elite Remnant Soul!
Wait a minute, there is only one truth to this – not only does Tianyuan own Elite-level troops, but the number might also exceed three!
He already has his own General, so the Elite Remnant Soul was just icing on the cake for him. It was far from reaching the level of sending charcoal in snowy weather.
That’s not good.
“It seems you are more excellent than I thought.”
“If that’s the case…”
Liu Xiyue took back the three Remnant Souls, thinking about what to invest in that would surprise the junior in front of her.
The Hero’s Proof? She didn’t have it either, and even if she did, she would certainly take care of her little sister first.
Large Batch of Soul Crystals? Money was too vulgar and too lowly for her, how could she offer it as a gift?
She needed something high-order, something that matched her status.
“So be it, here’s a Perfect Breakthrough Stone, you’ve probably seen it before.”
She promptly produced a bag of breakthrough stones, some were glowing green, and a few were glowing blue.
The green light was from low-level breakthrough stones, only useful for Profession Level and Elite Level breakthroughs.
The blue light, however, came from mid-level breakthrough stones, which could be used for War General level and leader level breakthroughs.
In total, there were three mid-level stones and more than ten low-level ones.
Fearing that Lord Tianyuan might not understand the meaning of a Perfect Breakthrough Stone, she explained, “The improvement a perfect breakthrough brings to troops is 15-20% greater than a normal one. It might not seem like much, but for the powerhouse aspiring to reach Legendary realm, they need to perfect every step, or there’s only ever a slim chance of reaching their goal.”
This was something Mu Yuan was keenly aware of.
He had desperately sought Perfect Breakthrough Stones before, but with his thin purse, they were simply out of his reach.
Now…
He looked at the breakthrough stones glowing with a valuable light, then at Liu Xiyue, who seemed to be bathed in the same light.
What great wealth and generosity this was.
Eventually, Mu Yuan decided to accept these treasures. After all, accepting one was no different than accepting all, and with more debts, he wouldn’t fear Rich Lady Han Yue. At most…he couldn’t sell himself, but he could let Duo Lai and the others work off the debt.
He had heard a bit about the disputes between nations and the New Lord’s competition.
He had heard President Jiang Cheng mention it before.
(Jiang Cheng: Why do I even bother…)
“Young man, give it your best shot. I’ve got high hopes for you,” said Liu Xiyue. “Starting from the festival, strive to set foot on an invincible path.”
After Mu Yuan left, Liu Xiyue and Liu Miumiu continued drinking their coffee.
“This young man, he has my old flair.”
“Is he really that amazing?”
Despite thinking highly of Mu Yuan, Liu Miumiu’s number one idol was still her own sister.
“At this stage, he does have my old style, but whether he can keep it up is uncertain. Back then, there were other genius Lords who weren’t any worse than your sister. But now…well, let’s just say they failed.”
“Wait a minute, does this mean I’m far behind Big Boss Tianyuan right now?”
She had a sudden realization.
Liu Xiyue rolled her eyes at her foolish sister.
“I’ve already asked someone to bring you an ‘Excellence Three-star Mermaid High Priestess’. However, such a troop has high intelligence and pride as soon as they are recruited, so don’t use it until you officially reach Elite-level profession, or you might not be able to control it.”
“Don’t worry, Sis, I’ll be able to reach Elite-level profession very soon.”
She thumped her chest and then glanced out the floor-to-ceiling window. “I wonder which hero Big Boss Tianyuan is planning to recruit.”
Liu Xiyue said, “He’s going down a different path than you, so there won’t be any direct competition between you two. According to the strategy I gave you, recruit that hero whenever you have a chance, but if the competition for that hero becomes too intense, particularly when you collide with the Lords mentioned before, you should settle for second best and compete for the second and third choice heroes.”
The previous Hero’s Festival had been Liu Xiyue’s playground, so of course she knew which heroes were the best.
If only her sister had more time to develop, with her support there was no need to fear any rival. However, time was short, and the same applied to Tianyuan.
The problem was that Tianyuan might stubbornly hold on to his desired hero without considering a backup plan.
That’s how she had been…and still was.
However, this festival’s schedule was not in Tianyuan’s favor.
When he got back to his territory and looked at the large amount of glowing treasures in his storage ring, Mu Yuan still felt a bit unreal.
How had he managed to meet two rich ladies on just one trip to the Festival Secret Realm?
‘Notification: You have transported a large amount of goods across regions, 11.5 Soul Crystals have been deducted for transportation costs.’
Wake up call for Mu Yuan. He was brought back to reality like a bucket of ice-water was dumped on him in the middle of winter.
Despite the aid of the rich ladies, he, Mr. Mu, was still poverty-stricken, barely able to afford the transportation cost! After all, he was transporting several Excellence-level items.
“First, let’s set up this Domain Interferer… It’s lucky that it came with a complete set of building materials, otherwise, I’m not sure I could afford them all.”
“As for the rest of the treasures, let’s see …”
There were a batch of cultivation aids and Miracle Blueprints for ‘City Lord’s Mansion’, ‘Bathhouse’, ‘High-Class House (3/3)’, ‘Public Toilet (3/3)’.
All of these were life-quality buildings, or rather, luxury constructions.
Obviously, Rich Lady Liu had perceived his humble background and reasoned that he wouldn’t spend his money on these living structures, so she generously provided them as assistance.
How thoughtful she was.
These items were pretty useful, too.
Especially with the festival approaching.
Even if we forget about the festival for a moment, a public toilet could effectively improve the sanitary conditions of the territory, helping to significantly improve the environment. Otherwise, as the population of the territory increased, the residential area in the southern part of the Tianyuan Territory would unavoidably be suffused with an unbearable stench.
A bathhouse could similarly keep the territory citizens cleaner and healthier, also increasing their happiness.
And with high-class houses, the living conditions of his generals could finally be improved – what territory would have its legendary-profile generals living in crude wooden houses?
“What she gave me is just exactly what I need..”
