Chapter 25: Not Seen Much of the World

~7 min read 1,331 words

……

"Roar!!"

Seeing that Lv Cheng seemed a bit angry, Xiaotian dared not play around anymore. First, it aimed at the strongest Cursed Beast, pinned it to the ground, and ignoring the attacks of the other Black Servants, a scorching Dragon Flame erupted from its mouth, taking one out first!

Having lost the leadership of the Warrior-level Cursed Beast, the remaining Servant-class Black Servants faced Xiaotian, who was not afraid of injury and even a bit enraged; they were taken out almost one claw-swipe at a time, and in no time, they were all dealt with.

Having completed its task, Xiaotian shrank its form and flew to Lv Cheng's side, looking a bit timid.

"Alright, I'm not blaming you," Lv Cheng said.

Not dying does not mean it doesn't hurt; Demons also feel pain. Xiaotian wanting to deal with those monsters while ensuring it didn't get hurt itself was understandable.

Plus, having been locked in Hell for thousands of years, it was rare to leave that boring ghost place. Facing cursed creatures like Black Servants that it had never seen before, Xiaotian acted as if it had seen a novel toy and started playing.

Moreover, in Xiaotian's eyes, its master was very strong; that little Black Servant from just now was actually just a matter of one mouthful of fire.

In other words, Xiaotian had also thought he was playing just now, which is why it didn't come over to help.

"As for you," Lv Cheng looked at Ye Chang.

"Spending one million to lure me to this ghost place, just for a bracelet..."

Ye Chang lowered her head in silence.

Things had reached this point, and she was going to say this matter had nothing to do with her?

Even a fool wouldn't believe it!

But the Black Servants were not part of her plan!

She only wanted to see whether the Giant-Eyed Rat was afraid of Lv Cheng or that sub-dragon, in order to judge whether the Frenzied Potion had some unknown defect, to facilitate subsequent improvements.

Incidentally, she could also build a good relationship with Lv Cheng through this identity; for the upcoming plan in Bo City, she could let Lv Cheng help with the parts concerning the Earth Holy Spring. As for the experiment with the Frenzied Potion, she would wait until Lv Cheng left this city before starting.

But now! Bastard! Actually acting on their own initiative to control the Black Servants to attack!

If she wanted to use such methods to force Lv Cheng to join the Black Vatican, would it need to be this troublesome!

"Hmm?"

Just as Ye Chang was preparing to give up the disguise and leave, Lv Cheng suddenly walked over and scooped her up.

"Turn on your Illumination Spell," Lv Cheng said.

"I want to see today if there is the bracelet you want here; if there isn't..."

Lv Cheng narrowed his eyes, "Young lady, I see you still have your charm."

If Ye Chang wanted to use coercion to make him join the Black Vatican, she wouldn't give up so easily. Even if she didn't want to make a move herself, she had plenty of subordinates.

The Frenzied Potion had already appeared; the people the Black Vatican sent would definitely be numerous.

Rather than being hunted down, it was better not to run.

……

After the threat, Lv Cheng carried Ye Chang back into the factory to continue searching for that bracelet that he didn't know existed.

Ye Chang leaned quietly in Lv Cheng's arms, holding a large light bulb in her hand to illuminate the path ahead.

As for the bracelet she had prepared in advance, she had just crushed that thing using Shadow Magic.

Still have my charm?

She was actually curious about how Lv Cheng would treat her next...

"Hmm?"

Just as Lv Cheng was about to give up, Xiaotian, who was walking in front, suddenly flew up and landed at a corner not far ahead.

"It really exists?" Lv Cheng looked at the emerald green bracelet in front of him with a strange expression.

He had seen a bit of the world over these years; this bracelet was indeed not cheap.

"Right, I didn't lie to you," Ye Chang pretended to be happy as she took the bracelet, though she could barely hold back the urge to kill inside.

Which bastard put it there!!

More harm than good!!

"You should know what those things from just now were, right?" Lv Cheng asked.

"Ah... yes." Ye Chang lowered her head nervously.

"Sorry, I really didn't know there would be Black Servants here..."

"No need to be sorry," Lv Cheng took out his phone.

"Come, let's add each other as friends."

"Ah?" Ye Chang didn't react for a moment, but she still took out her phone and added Lv Cheng as a friend.

"The commission is complete; now, we can settle the bill," Lv Cheng said.

"First, your bracelet, the commission fee is one million, no discount, transfer it to me now; I've already sent you the card number."

"Second, the question from just now."

"The Giant-Eyed Rat, you told me about that thing before coming in, so that counts as my own risk, but the Black Servants afterward, and the Cursed Beast..."

Ye Chang lowered her head in shame, "I..."

"That's a separate price," Lv Cheng said.

"……"

"Ah?" Ye Chang was a little dazed.

"One Black Servant counts as one hundred thousand; there were thirteen Black Servants just now, that's 1.3 million. One Warrior-level Cursed Beast counts as five hundred thousand, totaling 1.8 million!" Lv Cheng said.

"And, your commission was only for me to find your bracelet, not including protecting your safety, but for the Black Servants just now, if not for me, you would have croaked on the spot, so pay the security fee!"

"And!"

Lv Cheng's face darkened, "Those black ghosts just now caused me serious mental trauma! Pay the mental distress fee!"

Damn it!

If it weren't for the fact that he had been training in combat with Shendu in the basement whenever he had nothing to do, and had been beaten by that shameless old thing in every conceivable way for over half a year, the Black Beast's first sneak attack just now would have chopped his head off!

Although he wouldn't die even if his head fell off, he had even lost it many times during the combat training over the past few months!

But, that damn thing hurts!

And once he suffers fatal damage, the power of the Dog Talisman and the Horse Talisman will be passively activated, and the Magic Power he has been accumulating during this time to activate the Rat Talisman will have to start all over again!

"How... how much?" Ye Chang looked at Lv Cheng somewhat nervously.

"Considering you're so pretty, I'll give you a discount," Lv Cheng said.

"The total is five million."

"..."

"How much?" Ye Chang was stunned.

"Think it's too much? Then I'll give you a discount, I'll charge you..."

"No, you only want this little?" Ye Chang's face showed confusion.

"You saved my life, and you only want five million?"

"..." Lv Cheng.

Damn it! I'm just inexperienced, okay!

An hour later, Lv Cheng sent Ye Chang back to the hotel she specified, applied ice to her, and then went home with tonight's payment.

Ten million!

Damn it! He is a country bumpkin!

The Black Vatican is so rich!

"Lord Salang."

A black shadow suddenly appeared in Ye Chang's room and knelt on the ground.

"It has been clarified. There is no problem with the Frenzied Potion. What the Giant Eyed Rat feared after Berserk was not a sub-dragon, but that Lv Cheng," the man in black said respectfully.

"Oh? How did you determine that?"

Ye Chang leaned back on the sofa, holding the ice pack that Lv Cheng had just gotten for her; as for her swollen ankle, it had long since recovered.
