Chapter 829: Stealing

Translator: alyschu

An Immortal-grade mount. It was no exaggeration to say that there wasn’t another mount like this in the entire world right now. When I waved my hand across the egg and brought up its stats screen, Lin Yixin’s eyes grew even happier—

After bathing in moonlight and sunlight from countless years, the egg began showing signs of life and divinity, and a Moonchaser Tiger like nothing the world has ever seen before was about to be born.

......

The mount’s stats and image appeared in the Petopia. It was a ferocious-looking tiger with fur as white as a snowy moon, and stripes that looked like cyan tattoos. It still looked like a tiger though, and it was one of the reasons I didn’t want to take the mount for myself. It felt weird riding a tiger as a man, but a woman? Beauty and the beast was a combination that would never grow outdated.

"Well, what are you waiting for? This was the loot drop I got from the boss earlier!" I handed the mount egg to Lin Yixin while smiling. "You should be able to bind it right away. Its stats are way higher than your Frostscythe Warhorse’s, and it’s pretty beautiful. I’m almost certain that the Yin Yang Tiger didn’t drop Immortal-grade equipment earlier because this egg took up the majority of the loot table."

Lin Yixin didn’t accept it, however. She curled her lips and said, "No, Sister Eve will get mad if she knows that you gave me something this valuable. Plus, it’s your drop, not mine. You should equip it yourself!"

"It’s fine. The Armored Ice Qilin Horse’s stats aren’t too far behind the Moonchaser Tiger’s, so it’ll be a waste to change it. Also, don’t worry about Eve. She’s not a stingy woman, and there’s no way she’ll get mad at you over something like this. You gave me two Immortal-grade items, the Necklace of the War God’s Broken Blade and the Heaven-burning Armor earlier, so it’s only right that I give you this Moonchaser Tiger. You don’t want to make me into a selfish person, do you? Now come on, bind the pet egg and show it off already. I’m so tired I can fall asleep at any moment!"

"Mm, okay..."

Lin Yixin finally accepted the pet egg. Upon use, a white light broke out of the egg and flew into her mount space. When she raised her sword, a hexagram formation appeared in front of her, and a ferocious tiger appeared from the center with a roar. It looked mighty good for sure!

"Go on!" I smiled encouragingly.

The Moonchaser Tiger had an armored saddle atop its back. Lin Yixin obediently climbed up her mount, and just like that, a beautiful tiger knightress was born in this virtual world. Lin Yixin’s cheeks were red probably because she knew exactly what I was thinking about.

"How is it? Your stats skyrocketed, didn’t they?" I asked with a smile.

"Mm!" Lin Yixin nodded excitedly. "It’s amazing! It deserves to be ranked as an Immortal Rank mount for sure, hehe. How should I thank you for this, Little Cheat?"

"Well, you can come sleep with me..."

"Haha, I can try if you don’t mind Sister Eve throwing me out the windowr..."

I grinned. "It’s just a joke. I wouldn’t dare let you into my room even if you did show up. Well, this is it. Log out, rest well, and see you tomorrow for the Tiger Soul Essence quest!"

"Mm. See you!"

Lin Yixin and I put down our tents side by side to each other. Then, we returned to the real world.

......

I summoned the system fairy and logged out. I exhaled deeply the moment I took off my helmet.

I exited the room and found He Yi and Beiming Xue already sitting in the living room. Murong Mingyue had just returned with some packed fast food, and the four of us sat down to enjoy the delicious meal.

"Our journey in Land of Soul Suppression went pretty smoothly today, hehe. Do you guys want to report your earnings?" He Yi asked while taking small bites of her food.

Beiming Xue started first. "I collected three Cyanblade sets and two Silverblade sets. I gave them all to the guild..."

Murong Mingyue went next. "I’m just the healer, so I didn’t get anything. I live for the people, you see."

He Yi then looked at me, and I blushed a little, knowing my spoils of war were ridiculous. "Well, I probably profited the most out of all of you. I got countless Cyanblade sets and Silverblade sets. I also got two Dark Prison sets, and I gave one to Lin Yixin and left the other for the guild. Finally, I got an Immortal-grade necklace called ‘Necklace of War God’s Broken Blade’ and an Immortal-grade battle armor called ‘Heaven-burning Armor’. Suffice it to say, my stats are super broken right now..."

He Yi smiled widely. "Hehe, that’s great news, not to mention that you’re holding all nine Tiger Soul Essences now. Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls is without a doubt the biggest winner of the Land of Soul Suppression event!"

I nodded in agreement. "Yes, we are. It’s all thanks to everyone. By the way, we should give Li Chengfeng, Gui Guzi and High Fighting Spirits the first pick on the equipment sets. They absolutely deserve a reward, and we’re going to use the nine Tiger Soul Essences to do a quest that only we can reap the benefits from. It would be unfair to neglect them."

He Yi giggled. "Don’t worry, I’ll make sure to compensate them fully. Do I look like a person who would neglect her subordinates?"

Beiming Xue immediately threw in her support. "Yeah, yeah! Follow Sister Eve, and a good life you shall have!"

Murong Mingyue smiled. "Setting that aside, Shanghai’s Blue Star is inviting you to a board meeting tomorrow, Eve. Are you going?"

A surprised He Yi asked, "What time will the meeting begin?"

"10 am."

"Mm, in that case we must go. They are our biggest business partner, and it is only right that we show them the appropriate sincerity!" He Yi gripped her chopsticks and replied seriously.

Murong Mingyue smiled again. "Yay, our CEO is finally doing her job! Oh right, the board meeting of the Hangzhou branch, Arcsoft’s cooperative meeting, and the Technological Arch Summit held by India Heaven Technology all require your participation this week. I’ll prepare the flights..."

A conflicted look immediately twisted He Yi’s features. "Nooo, that’s way too much. I can participate in the Hangzhou branch board meeting in person, but I’m doing teleconferences for the rest. There’s no way I’m flying back and forth like that. Raincube Technology has good technology and good capital, and there’s no need for us to beg others for their cooperation. If you don’t show some backbone from time to time, you’re going to exhaust yourself, you know..."

Murong Mingyue replied helplessly, "Yes, my wise master..."

Me: "..."

Beiming Xue: "..."

......

There was nothing else to do except sleep after the meal, so I did exactly that. I hugged my blanket and blacked out for an unknown amount of time.

Dawn was just breaking when I awoke from my slumber. The ray of sunlight nearly blinded my murky, professional gamer eyes. I rubbed my eyes and checked the time on my phone. It was 7 am in the morning, meaning that I had slept for almost 14 hours straight. Damn. Well, nothing else to do except to get out of my bed and check if I could activate the follow-up quest for Land of Soul Suppression. The nine Tiger Soul Essences were said to trigger a main quest that was tied to one of the Nine Sovereigns, Ovia the Bloody Finger. I was sure that there would be plenty of profit to be earned there!

The moment I exited my room, I was immediately greeted by the sight of Beiming Xue brushing her teeth in her pyjama dress. She looked at me and said something that was completely garbled by the bubbles in her mouth. I only caught a glimpse of her body as I walked toward her, but I could already tell that the little girl was growing at all the right places. It wouldn’t be long before she caught up to the impressive He Yi and Lin Yixin!

I stopped next to Beiming Xue and readied myself for battle. Fight, I mean, brush!

Unfortunately, I used too much strength and hurt my gums. The pain actually made me frown a little.

Beiming Xue burst into a giggle when she saw my mistake. "Big bro, you’re brushing your teeth, not fighting. What are you using so much strength for?"

I smiled and asked in a garbled voice, "Where’s He Yi and sis?"

"They flew to Shanghai for their meeting already!"

"Damn, I thought we were going to do the follow-up quest today..."

"We can just do that tomorrow. I called Sister Lin Yixin earlier, and she said that she’s going to be busy with advanced algebra and English exams, so she probably won’t be able to join us during the day anyway."

"Fine..."

I washed my face after brushing my teeth. While doing so, I was talking to myself, "What should we do today then..."

"Take me to Humble Administrator's Garden, big bro!" For some reason, Beiming Xue suddenly grabbed my towel arm and shook it up and down excitedly. "I’ve been in Suzhou for a long time, but I’ve never been to any park around here before!"

I couldn’t control my arm, and my towel was flying all over the place. Left with no choice, I put my face in the general direction of the towel and wiped my face like that before saying, "Fine, we’ll go to Humble Administrator’s Garden in the morning and head to Tiger Hill in the afternoon. Let’s spend the day relaxing together, okay?"

"Yay! Long live big bro!" Beiming Xue cheered.

There were only the two of us in the workshop, so after we finished washing ourselves we ate some simple breakfast and departed straight for Humble Administrator's Garden. Since we were living in the New Area, Humble Administrator's Garden wasn’t the closest destination we could choose, especially because it was rush hour right now. The roads were all jam-packed with traffic.

Beiming Xue surfed the internet on her phone while sitting at the front passenger’s seat. Even now, she looked to be in high spirits as she said, "China has 6 Divine Generals, and 3 of them are in Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls, hehe! We’re pretty amazing, aren’t we?"

I smiled in agreement. "Yeah, we are. There aren’t any forces in the entire China server who could compete against us on their own anymore, and even Candle Dragon must absorb guilds like Hall of Immortality, Silver Soul, Rose of the Holy Domain and more to strengthen themselves. Otherwise, we can just march to the west, flatten Wind City, and end the warring era after the tides of Nation Wars subside!"

Beiming Xue let out a giggle before continuing her report. "Ohh, look. There are a total of 29 Divine Generals in the entire world right now, and number-wise, China currently sits at the top with 6 Divine Generals. India has 4, the USA has 3, Japan has 3, Korea has 1 and Russia has 3. There are others, but I don’t know how to read their country’s name. Ohh, Vatican has a Divine General too..."

"Fuck..." I grinned and shook my head.

Heavenblessed Continent was crawling with the main cities of each server, so it was chaotic to say the least. As more and more Divine Generals appeared, the intensity of the war would only continue to increase until it hit its peak.

......

When the clock ticked past 9 am, we finally arrived at Humble Administrator's Garden. I wasn’t particularly excited as I enjoyed the peaceful stroll with Beiming Xue, but the same couldn’t be said for the girl beside me. She kept grabbing my arm and asking questions like, "Big bro, look! Is that cutie’s skirt to your liking? If it is I’m gonna buy one for myself! Also, what color of stockings do you like?"

There was nothing I could do except accept my fate as every man and woman in the garden enjoyed my misery in the hands of the beautiful young girl.

......

However, our stroll came to an abrupt end when my phone suddenly rang. It was Xu Yang’s number!

"What’s wrong, Xu Yang?"

"Where are you right now, Lu Chen?"

"I’m strolling with Beiming Xue and enjoying a day off. What’s wrong? Calm down, didn’t I teach you to be as immovable as a mountain, no matter what life throws at you? How are you still so brash..."

Xu Yang’s volume nearly climbed an entire octave as he half-shouted, "Fuck, I want to be calm too, but someone just came to our base to steal our mage! Moonlight Stone is packing her belongings and leaving right now! You think you can stay calm after hearing that?!"

"What the fuck!?"

I punched the tree next to me hard. "Who’s the ballsy motherfucker who’s trying to steal our only powerful mage? Wait there, I’m coming to the base right away!"

"Yeah, be quick!"
