Chapter 55: Yun Shen: He still has to thank us

At this moment, Yun Shen was chatting privately with Zhao Shuiyun.

Zhao Shuiyun: "Brother Yun, I feel like we're a pair of villains."

Yun Shen: "What of it? Everyone is a lord now, and everyone is an adult; one should be responsible for their own actions."

Unlike the eighteen-year-old adulthood of his past life, in this world's Blue Star Dragon Kingdom, sixteen is the age of adulthood.

The main reason is that once everyone reaches sixteen, they have the opportunity to become a lord, so this has become the dividing line for adulthood.

Zhao Shuiyun: "That's true. He wanted to find Brother Yun for an offline PK earlier, so he really shouldn't be let off lightly."

She didn't ask Yun Shen why he wanted to sell the troop token to Xu Xu Xiaojiang. This lack of prying made Yun Shen increasingly satisfied; dealing with smart people is just comfortable.

At this time, Yun Shen also saw the price Xu Xu Xiaojiang offered, felt it was acceptable, and agreed to the transaction.

He estimated that this was almost all of Xu Xu Xiaojiang's net worth; squeezing any more out would be impossible.

However, image management is still quite necessary. To highlight his own magnanimous image, Yun Shen specifically replied to Xu Xu Xiaojiang before agreeing.

Yun Shen: "In view of your willingness to correct your mistakes, I'll give you a discount this time. The troop token is yours."

When that half-dragon troop token appeared in Xu Xu Xiaojiang's hand, he widened his eyes, truly unable to believe that Yun Shen was actually playing for real!

In fact, he was just holding a "try it and see" mentality; if it didn't work out, he'd just lose a bit of face.

The bewildered Xu Xu Xiaojiang's gaze gradually turned sinister.

"Hmph! Do you really think I'll be moved enough to become your dog just because of this?"

In his view, Yun Shen's act of aiding an enemy was simply extremely stupid!

Since they had become enemies, he had to kill the other party; returning evil with kindness was simply ridiculous!

"Those who achieve great things do not fuss over trifles! One must know how to bend and stretch!"

Xu Xu Xiaojiang chuckled: "In ancient times, Ying Zheng imitated Gou Jian's sleeping on brushwood and tasting gall; today, I, Xu Xu Xiaojiang, will infiltrate the enemy's interior, plan, and then act!"

Village Channel.

"I thought it was just a tease, but he actually traded it to Xu Xu Xiaojiang."

"Unbelievable. I was already prepared to start flaming Xu Xu Xiaojiang, but now it seems unnecessary."

"Ah, this..."

Xu Xu Xiaojiang: "Thank you, Big Brother Yun Shen! I will definitely behave myself from now on!"

Xu Xu Xiaojiang: "To be honest, I thought you were playing with me just now. I didn't expect it to be me measuring a gentleman's heart with a petty man's yardstick!"

Xu Xu Xiaojiang: "And Big Brother Zhao Shuiyun, I spoke too harshly before. I'm sorry!"

With this attitude, it looked like he had truly admitted his mistake.

Seeing these messages, Yun Shen felt quite amused, so he took a screenshot and sent it to Zhao Shuiyun.

Yun Shen: "Look, he still has to thank us."

Zhao Shuiyun: "...Pfft."

As a Paradox Interactive player with high moral standards, Yun Shen thought he was truly a great philanthropist.

Just then, Yun Shen saw Teacher Jiang Lan return.

Yun Shen teased: "How was it, my Lord Teacher Jiang Lan? Are there many wild buildings with slimes there?"

Ever since he had just reopened the kill notifications for the Profound Heaven Iron Maidens, he had been receiving constant notifications of them killing slimes.

Based on what Xu Xu Xiaojiang had said earlier, Yun Shen actually had some expectations for that monster-grinding treasure land.

Facing Yun Shen's address, Teacher Jiang Lan nodded speechlessly: "Yes, indeed. We discovered ten [Slime Pools] in a mountain cave."

"So many."

Upon hearing this number, even Yun Shen was a bit surprised.

This Xu Xu Xiaojiang's luck was truly not bad to be able to encounter such a monster-grinding treasure land.

If he hadn't interfered, he really might have become the second place.

As for first?

Don't even think about it. Even if the speed at which the Slime Pools birthed slimes was very fast, and there were ten of them operating at once, the monster-grinding speed was ultimately limited.

With so many powerful troop types under his command, they could basically start killing as soon as they saw wild monsters. Could they really not grind faster than those ten Slime Pools?

Teacher Jiang Lan continued to ask: "I came back to ask, how should those ten Slime Pools be handled?" ===== CHAPTER 99 =====

When eating breakfast, Yun Shen had already mentioned the kill leaderboard to everyone; otherwise, Teacher Jiang Lan would have just ordered the destruction of all the Slime Pools.

"Destroy them all, of course."

Yun Shen did not hesitate.

For an average lord, that was indeed a monster-grinding treasure land, but for him, it was too much of a loss.

The reason was simple: the loot obtained from killing slimes was too trashy, especially the Source Crystals and Soul Crystals, which could only provide the minimum guaranteed amount.

With so many troop types and buildings under his command waiting to be upgraded, how could just grinding slimes be enough?

"Alright, I'll go give the order."

Teacher Jiang Lan finished speaking and prepared to leave.

The smart brain chip's current level was too low, and the distance between the territory and that cave exceeded the networking range.

Otherwise, with the Profound Heaven Iron Maidens in the territory, she wouldn't have needed to return in person; she could have just contacted them remotely.

It was just that no one knew there was actually another reason: Teacher Jiang Lan now increasingly wanted to see Yun Shen more and talk to him more.

"Wait, our territory currently has a Dragon-Locking Well, and I just sold a half-dragon troop token to Xu Xu Xiaojiang..."

Yun Shen smiled, as cheerful as a sunny boy; those who didn't know him would never imagine he was currently plotting against others.

Teacher Jiang Lan checked the information on the Dragon-Locking Well and immediately understood Yun Shen's meaning.

"I understand. In the future, if we encounter wild monsters of the sub-dragon species, we will also try our best to capture them alive."

Dragon species were hard to encounter, and while sub-dragon species were also rare, there was still hope.

"Mm, go. If possible, capture that entire batch of half-dragons for me."

"Understood."

Teacher Jiang Lan left the territory again.

Yun Shen also continued to get busy.

Time flew by until noon.

Xu Xu Xiaojiang had already used the troop token, and what was recruited were actually half-dragon hunters, the kind that came with their own equipment, nine in total.

This troop type was a master in the forest, agile, had a strong sense of danger, and was suitable for dispersed operations.

Most importantly, they were actually a flying troop type, with a pair of fleshy wings on their backs!

Facing a flying troop type, the current Profound Heaven Iron Maidens were powerless.

The world Teacher Jiang Lan came from combined cultivation and technology, which led her to never consider flight functions when designing the nano-colonization gear.

The reason was simple: as long as one's realm was high enough, one could fly on their own...

But upon arriving at the Myriad Races Battlefield, the cultivation realm was wiped clean, which was very awkward.

Helpless, Teacher Jiang Lan took action herself, successively severing the fleshy wings of two half-dragons, causing them to fall to the ground; only then did she finally have some gains.

"This works too?"

Yun Shen looked at the two half-dragons escorted to him and fell into deep thought.

Could this kid Xu Xu Xiaojiang have luck far exceeding that of ordinary people?

According to his understanding, luck existed in many people; it was just a matter of how much.

Thinking about it carefully, it seemed this kid had always had good luck. If not for him, he might have really been able to make a name for himself on the Myriad Races Battlefield.

"This won't do."

Thinking of this, Yun Shen slowly raised his hands, and killing intent gradually rose in his calm eyes.

These hands, they might soon be stained with blood. ===== CHAPTER 100 =====
