Xu Yourong originally wanted to refuse, after all, 50 card coins was too much.
Even though she was highly valued by the Xu family, they had never given her so much money at once. The only valuable thing was spiritual essence, everything else had to be earned through her own efforts.
The Xu family had a wolf culture, if you wanted to obtain resources, you had to rely on your own abilities.
The Xu family doesn’t keep idle people.
There’s nothing shaful about this. In such a large family, the clan or company has a lot of mbers or employees. If everyone shared resources equally, it would only make the family weak.
Moreover, resources are relatively limited.
So, all financial groups will concentrate resources at the top.
The remaining resources are left for those below to compete for through their abilities, which is also a kind of helplessness and compromise.
However, Xu Yourong doesn’t dislike the Xu family because of this, but because she grew up without parents, faced a lot of discrimination, and had a very humble status in the family. Now, with the added resentnt of her father’s murder, these hatreds cannot be resolved.
Therefore, it’s understandable that she hates her family.
After all, for a family that wants to keep growing and becoming stronger, sacrificing so family mbers has beco the norm.
Even the family can be divided into yin and yang houses, so there’s nothing they won’t do.
In the end, Xu Yourong only took 20 of the card coins, “This is enough, I don’t need too much.”
Perhaps she just wanted to express that she’s easy to support and doesn’t need to use too many resources.
Luo Sheng looked at this scene, not knowing what to say.
He felt so pity for her.
Compared to princesses like Wang Keai, Xu Yourong received attention from the family due to her own talent, but before she was 18, she was still an unremarkable girl.
Inconspicuous, even doing nial work.
And Qin Jianjia received preferential treatnt because she was sold for a good price.
Wang Keai was born with a silver spoon in her mouth.
“Suit yourself… if you need anything, just ask,” Luo Sheng put away these card coins and added, “After all, you’re my person now, cultivating you will benefit
too.”
Since she had indicated she was easy to support, Luo Sheng just went along with it.
Of course, he wouldn’t beco a boss who shortchanges his subordinates.
Wanting the horse to run without feeding it grass, even servants will eventually beco disloyal.
Now that he had cald down, Luo Sheng still couldn’t resist the doubt in his heart, so he asked, “Actually, with your abilities, you could live well on your own. I want to know why you must follow ?”
“Because of fate.”
Xu Yourong answered simply.
“Fate?” Luo Sheng was confused.
She continued to explain: “Once, I helped a fate master obtain intelligence, and she helped
use a fate card once.
She told
that a special Enhancer would appear in my life who could change my fate, even break through the shackles of world rules, and help
fulfill my wishes, such as finding the truth and getting revenge.”
“So that’s why you chose ?”
“Yes, because you are that special Enhancer.”
“I see.”
Luo Sheng felt a sudden clarity.
He also understood many things, such as that banquet where they first t.
He had always been puzzled about why she showed such great interest in him.
Perhaps she had been observing him from that ti, wondering if he was the special Enhancer in her fate, constantly thinking and judging through various contacts and probes whether he could et her expectations.
Especially during that academy competition.
Her expression could prove this point even more.
She dared to tell him about this now because of the contract she had signed with him.
Before, she was simply afraid he would refuse.
Luo Sheng could see her concern.
“Then what about the fate master?”
“She’s already dead at the hands of the Evil Card Masters.”
“…”
Luo Sheng was silent for a while.
It seed that everything was related to the Evil Card Masters, or rather they were destined to be lifelong enemies.
He patted the dust off his body.
“Let’s go, go ho and rest well, there have been too many things today.”
Luo Sheng set the tone for this trip.
He now wanted to get back to his apartnt quickly, then use 【Refinent Liquid】 to raise his level, making himself safer in this crisis.
“Mm.”
Xu Yourong obediently stood beside him.
At this ti, the street was pitch dark.
As the incident fernted day by day, quite a few invading creatures had broken into Pingcheng.
Many facilities in Pingcheng had been damaged, so power outages could be seen.
Of course, the Card Masters in the city, like firefighters, were striving to stop the invading creatures.
Both sides ford a kind of tug-of-war situation.
Luo Sheng didn’t pay attention to the situation on the front lines.
The fall of Pingcheng was only a matter of ti, what he needed to do now was to quickly increase his own strength.
If he could reach the gold level, his survival would be more secure.
“What do you think we should do in the future?”
Luo Sheng asked Xu Yourong on the way, without turning his head.
“Preserve our strength, wait for opportunities.”
Xu Yourong answered simply.
Luo Sheng still calmly asked: “What if Pingcheng is destined to be destroyed?”
Xu Yourong replied without hesitation: “I will always stay with you.”
Luo Sheng was stunned for a mont, turning his head to look at her eyes.
He saw her eyes full of determination, as if embracing a resolve to die.
“Why?”
“Consider it repaying a debt of gratitude.”
“…”
“Don’t worry, I won’t let you die easily.”
Luo Sheng said solemnly.
Then he chuckled lightly.
He raised his head to look at the increasingly falling Pingcheng, with chanical pterodactyls occasionally appearing in the sky.
He felt that this world was too crazy, and also felt that his forr self was too foolish.
Now that he had a certain bond, he carried a heavy responsibility on his shoulders.
It was as if when he was alone, he could act without worries, even be unrestrained.
Now he couldn’t do that anymore, because there was soone following him.
The death of an individual ans that soone else would perish along with him.
Controlling others’ fates sotis brings exciting emotions, but sotis bears the future of everyone.
What happened in the ghostly otherworld dinsion before couldn’t be done again, adventure was not worth it.
Click.
Luo Sheng opened the door of his apartnt.
The inside of the apartnt was pitch dark, he pressed a switch, and the whole apartnt lit up.
Obviously, this place was well protected, with water and electricity still running.
Luo Sheng tidied up a room again and said to Xu Yourong: “This room is temporarily unoccupied, you can live here. It’s safe here, don’t worry about the Evil Card Masters.”
“Mm.”
Xu Yourong nodded lightly.
Seeing her so obedient.
Luo Sheng even suspected that if one day he told her to die, she might execute his order without hesitation.
“Now, with the environnt outside so chaotic, we’ll stay here for now. Moreover, I have so things to deal with.”
Luo Sheng briefly instructed.
Then he returned to his own room.
After that, he didn’t pay attention to her anymore.
What he needed to do now was to absorb the 【Refinent Liquid】.
He took out that card, and with a thought, the card imdiately emitted a large amount of mist, hazy, like a fairyland.
Then, relying on his spiritual power, he continuously absorbed these mists slowly into his body.
The familiar feeling appeared.
These milky white vapors were no different from the mysterious energy obtained from enhancing cards.
Then, the Refinent Liquid continuously reshaped his body, Luo Sheng could feel that his body would beco more flexible and harder.
The outer shell of his spiritual jade was also rapidly shedding.
A large amount of silver kept falling off, revealing the golden part.
The progress also kept increasing 167%… 170%… 175%… Finally, the spiritual jade progress stopped at 192%.
He didn’t expect the 【Refinent Liquid】 could provide him with a 25% refinent progress.
“This… is too overpowered!”
Luo Sheng was surprised for a while, he didn’t expect the 【Refinent Liquid】 could make his level jump two stars.
Imdiately, a huge aura burst out from his body, the strength of silver ten stars was stronger than ever before.
Enormous spiritual power also kept erging from his ntal space, Luo Sheng could feel his spiritual jade was as vast as the sea.
This gave him unprecedented control.
If he had higher-level cards now, he might not be so passive against Black Jack.
Even if he used cards like 【Space Lock】, which was gold 3-star, it wouldn’t consu much spiritual power, just a few hundredths.
It also ant that he could now use gold level 5-star and below cards freely.
Just as Luo Sheng was about to thoroughly examine his body.
Suddenly.
Creak~
The door was opened.
He saw Xu Yourong, wearing thin clothes, revealing her collarbone and snow-white skin, standing outside the door…
“What are you doing?”
