Chapter 9: Unbearable Humiliation

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The City Lord’s Mansion was not a private residence but rather an office for government officials.

A group of people followed the chubby City Lord named Xu Yun, walking confidently toward a majestic building in the center of the city.

Xu Yuan stopped briefly before the door and glanced at the people who had been watching before. They were still following behind close with varied expressions. Envy, jealousy, and even a trace of malice could be sensed.

Xu Yuan secretly thought that if Uncle Lin wasn’t there today to support him, he might not even pass the fifth reincarnation for the Smite Priest.

Uncle Lin first entered the scene in a high-profile manner to promote Xu Yuan.

Then he continued to plan for more support, displaying a cunning strategy.

Now.

He entered the City Lord’s Mansion and became an honored guest of Lord Xu Yun.

Those hiding in the dark corners might no longer dare to act recklessly.

“Xu Yuan, why are you in a daze?” Lin Mucheng found that Xu Yuan beside her suddenly stopped, so she turned around and asked. Then, she urged. “My dad and the others are all inside. You should hurry up!”

Xu Yuan answered, turned his head, and entered the gate of the City Lord’s Mansion.

Following Lord Xu Yun, the group walked through the corridor into a secluded courtyard.

“Mr. Lin, please take a seat…” Xu Yun stepped up first and then respectfully invited Lin Zhenhua to take a seat.

Before returning, Xu Yun quickly contacted his subordinates, saying that distinguished guests would arrive soon and have them prepare good tea and snacks.

Now that they were waiting for the distinguished guests to take their seats, Xu Yun took the tea set from his subordinate and personally brewed tea for them.

Yin Yue stood by, looking on eagerly.

He had also followed along, holding two secret realm Key Stones that he had yet to give away.

“Guild Leader Yin Yue, please have a seat.” Lin Zhenhua gestured toward an empty seat next to him, speaking in a calm tone.

Only then did Yin Yue cautiously approach, stiffly sitting beside Lin Zhenhua.

He had no defense.

The guilt was entirely his.

Visiting in person to apologize, and yet he was still unable to offer his gift of apology.

If Lin Zhenhua did not speak up to smooth things over, he would never dare to relax.

“Mr. Xu, please take a seat.” Lin Zhenhua’s face remained calm, and no one could surmise his thoughts.

After everyone had sat down, he turned to his daughter and smiled, saying, “Mucheng, show the skill you’ve acquired for everyone.”

“Yes,” Lin Mucheng responded and took out the scroll of goatskin that was glowing orange.

[Skill: Elemental Ignition]

[Level: Orange Legendary]

[Passive Ability: Elemental energy courses through your body, reducing the channeling duration for all elemental magic by 25%; all elemental magic deal increased damage and set your target ablaze after hitting it, inflicting continuous damage.]

“Hiss…”

Xu Yun and Yin Yue held their breaths.

There was no doubt about the power of this ability!

Elemental Mage was a mighty role, with top-level violent output and extensive coverage of the damage.

However, its only drawback was the excessively long channeling time.

The more powerful the spell, the longer the channeling time.

Although its power was astonishing, the enemy might rush forward before the spell was finished.

Any passive abilities that could shorten the channeling time were what the Mages pursued.

Elemental Ignition not only shortened the Mage’s channeling time by a quarter but also enhanced the spell’s power and added continuous damage.

Legendary quality was indeed extraordinary!

Be it Xu Yun of the fourth reincarnation or Yin Yue of the eighth reincarnation, both were drooling with envy.

They watched pitifully as Lin Mucheng used up the scroll, absorbing the orange glow emanating from it.

“Xu Yuan. You have to sell me the treasure chest tomorrow!” Lin Mucheng clenched her little fist, brimming with excitement.

Elemental Ignition was a passive ability. Once she learned it, she could feel a surge of elemental power surging in her body.

It was just a pity that she hadn’t learned any other elemental magic yet.

Otherwise, she really wanted to cast a few spells and test their power.

“What do you want to say now that you’ve witnessed it?” Lin Zhenhua smiled at the envious Yin Yue and Xu Yun.

What did they want to say?

They wanted to curse!

A little girl who had just changed her role and hadn’t even learned all the low-level spells, yet she used an Orange Legendary Skill Scroll without blinking!

What a waste!

However, all of this happened right in front of their eyes!

They couldn’t bear it!

Looking at the forced smiles on their faces, Lin Zhenhua smiled and said, “My daughter is lucky. The first treasure chest she opened had an Orange Legendary. Don’t you guys want to try your luck?”

The two men were stunned.

Xu Yun had just been scheming against Xu Yuan, thinking of capturing and controlling him.

As for Yin Yue… His subordinates obeyed his orders and snatched things from Lin Mucheng.

Due to Lin Zhenhua’s presence, the two only had fear in their hearts and did not dare to have any other thoughts.

At this moment, Lin Zhenhua finally spoke. They finally heaved a sigh of relief, no longer having to worry and fear the punishment from him.

Since he had already spoken, it was easy to handle.

They couldn’t snatch it.

But they could buy it with money!

“Hmm?”

Just as Xu Yuan was swallowing a piece of sesame pastry, he suddenly noticed Xu Yun and Yin Yue staring at him with particularly strange expressions.

“Xu Yuan, my young friend,” Yin Yue said with a smile, “Do you still have that treasure chest?”

If there were still onlookers present at this point, they would surely be shocked. A peak-level expert at the eighth reincarnation was speaking so nicely to a novice who had just changed his role as if worried about accidentally offending him.

“Mucheng has already opened the ability treasure chest today,” he said, biting into a soft pastry. “I’ve already agreed to sell the remaining two pieces of equipment and consumable treasure chests to Uncle Lin.”

Yin Yue and his partner caught the word “today” in Xu Yuan’s words.

“So tomorrow…” Xu Yun hurriedly asked before Yin Yue could continue.

“I can forge three Basic Treasure Chests a day now,” Xu Yuan first answered the two men’s questions before continuing, “If I increase my level a little, I can shorten the cooldown.”

After the first reincarnation.

The respawn time of the treasure chest would be shortened from 24 hours to 12 hours.

Moreover, he could unlock Intermediate Treasure Chest.

Yin Yue felt a surge of fervor in his heart. “Xu Yuan, my young friend, can you…”

He had an idea, which was to have his subordinates help Xu Yuan increase his level. He hoped that Xu Yuan could complete the first reincarnation within three days.

Yin Yue was about to enter a thorny secret realm.

With his current strength, he did not have much confidence.

He had sent someone to snatch Lin Mucheng’s legendary ability to add to his bargaining chip.

Now.

The legendary Skill Scroll was gone.

However, there was a Xu Yuan that could continuously create Skill Scroll Treasure Chests.

He had to grasp this opportunity.

“I’m just afraid I won’t be able to guard so many treasure chests!” Xu Yuan listened to Yin Yue’s suggestion but put on a bitter face and said, “Mr. Yin Yue, Lord Xu, you don’t know. I was almost robbed by a fifth reincarnation just now!”

He poured out his grievances to the two.
