Chapter 452: Borrowing Someone?

It wasn't until Su Sheng slipped his shirt back on that Lin Huan slowly withdrew his gaze.

The Imperial Dynasty's thirty million was credited to Yanhuang's account, and Yanhuang's account is managed by Huan Jie.

"That's compensation from the Imperial Dynasty; I was just planning a team‑building today and handing out some bonuses. Everyone's worked hard," Su Sheng said with an awkward smile.

Lin Huan nodded, "Alright, got it… then go take a shower."

From Su Sheng's movements and the clothes in his hand, Lin Huan could naturally tell that Su Sheng was about to take a shower.

Then Lin Huan turned and walked out; the moment he reached the door, he suddenly turned back with a smile and looked at Su Sheng, "Nice figure…"

"...." Su Sheng.

Watching Huan Jie leave, Su Sheng for a moment forgot to ask how Lin Huan opened the door.

Never mind… it's not important, just go shower first.

Su Sheng shook his head, not sure if it was a hallucination, but he felt Huan Jie's gaze just now was off…

Outside the door, Lin Huan quietly tucked away the key in his hand, hum hum~

It doesn't matter who bought the house; the parents' room is one thing, but how could my foster father's room not have a key left?

At certain times, if Su Sheng is being clueless, Lin Huan wouldn't mind forcing his way in.

Since the year I was eight, when my sister shouted and woke me from a vegetative state in the hospital, Su Sheng was destined to never escape.

Didn't expect A Sheng's figure to be pretty good…

Huh?

He wiped his mouth corner; luckily no drool.

That day Su Sheng took the people from Yanhuang Studio to a countryside resort mountain villa in the city for a picnic.

Everyone had a great time.

When the gathering ended, Su Sheng also made a trip to Hidden Dragon.

It wasn't until 6 p. m. that Su Sheng finally returned home.

With two hours left before the 8 p. m. game session, he rested a bit and prepared to log in.

Half‑lying on the bed, Su Sheng began to ponder matters in the game.

Now he's already level 50, time to change gear.

There are three or four pieces of equipment he can swap now.

One is Tree Spirit's Heart, a level‑55 purple minor‑excellent double‑attribute entry that fits him perfectly, and it's already embedded with Heavenly Craft Stone.

After entering the Main City era, Heavenly Craft Stone, though still precious, is no longer scarce; the Yanhuang Guild's warehouse has plenty in stock.

It also happens to grant a 5% lifesteal, just enough to replace the outdated Sharp‑Tooth Pendant.

The only other dilemma is the Heavenly Cluster Cloud and the Magic‑Pattern Ring.

Heavenly Cluster Cloud is a Divine Artifact obtained from Little Days, level 55… embedding Heavenly Craft Stone seems sufficient, but the Cloud was originally a level‑50 Kusanagi Sword, and its description says it can still be upgraded; to be safe, Su Sheng feels it's best to embed Divine Craftsman Stone.

However, Su Sheng only has one Divine Craftsman Stone on hand; the Magic‑Pattern Ring is a level‑60 epic, and if he wants to swap it now, he'll have to use Heavenly Craft Stone.

Another point is that, although Heavenly Cluster Cloud is powerful, it doesn't seem much stronger than Divine Thunder Magic Light for him, and Divine Thunder Magic Light also has a large‑area AOE ultimate.

After careful consideration, Su Sheng decided to replace the Magic‑Pattern Ring first.

Heavenly Cluster Cloud… later.

He'll ask Iron Hammer later how to properly nurture the described Cloud.

Tap tap~

While Su Sheng's thoughts were quiet, a sudden knock sounded at the door.

"A Sheng..."

It was Huan Jie; this time she didn't come straight in, perhaps because of the morning awkwardness.

"What's up, Huan Jie?" Su Sheng opened the door.

"Wenwan is here; she has something for you,"

Lin Huan gestured toward the living room.

Huh?

Su Sheng was startled: why is Li Wenwan looking for him?

Su Sheng followed Lin Huan into the living room, where Li Wenwan was chatting and laughing with his mother Huang Hui.

"Sister Wenwan, what's it you need me for?" Su Sheng asked, a bit puzzled; Li Wenwan also has her own contact method—if it's not important, she could just message him.

"Hey…" Li Wenwan smiled faintly, "It's not me looking for you; to be precise, Huanyu is looking for you."

"Huanyu?" Su Sheng was taken aback.

"Fine… my older cousin asked me to be a negotiator," Li Wenwan said helplessly.

"What do they want to do?" Su Sheng wondered, "Why is Huanyu looking for me?"

"Um… my cousin has a mission… needs to clear a Dungeon, he failed once and wants me and you to go help."

Li Wenwan spoke.

"Huh? Borrowing someone," Su Sheng realized.

Before Yanhuang was established, when Li Wenwan and Lin Huan operated as a studio, Huanyu often borrowed Li Wenwan to help smash BOSSes.

But after Yanhuang was founded, this is still Huanyu's number‑one borrowing.

"What mission? Huanyu will come over to find us?" Su Sheng was surprised.

It has to be me and Li Wenwan being borrowed over.

Su Sheng is fairly aware of Huanyu's strength, after all he once stayed in the Assassin Alliance under Huanyu

Dawn, the Rising Star, Hongmeng, etc.; they rank second, third, fourth because their strength can only place them…

But the Universe is ranked first, because only the highest rank counts as first!

Otherwise, during the Cauldron-Seizing Battle back then, the Dawn team wouldn't have been so wary of the Universe.

Now Yan-Huang's top-tier combat power is quite exaggerated; it's just that the grassroots members, being all recruited solo players, might still be a bit different.

But Su Sheng feels that if Yan-Huang really clashes with the Universe, the odds of winning aren't really big.

Before, in the Cauldron-Seizing Battle, it was purely just relying on the Divine Artifact's ultimate move for a sudden sneak attack.

Otherwise, back then Zhuque City might not necessarily have been able to seize victory in the Cauldron-Seizing Battle.

"I don't know the specifics either; my cousin should contact you when we go online later. mainly just to have me come over to feel things out and persuade you." Li Wenwan spread her hands.

"Alright, I know; I'll look at the specifics when we go online. Whether I can go over or not is still uncertain, but you can come over to help anytime, after all, the Universe is the Li clan's, and Li Xiao, that guy, is still your older cousin." Su Sheng spoke.

Although Su Sheng actually also has some worries, if Li Wenwan goes directly to the Universe, Yan-Huang would lose a super turret.

But the heavens want to rain, the mother wants to marry off; there's nothing we can do. Furthermore, the job-change items back then were still bought by Li Wenwan with money.

Although now it seems, six million and being given for free make no difference, but back then the market was like that; the strength of the Hidden Class hasn't fully shown its fierceness.

"Don't worry, I'm the Mage Team Leader of Yan-Huang; I wouldn't bother going back to the Universe." Li Wenwan naturally saw Su Sheng's worry; if she wanted to go back, she would have done so already.

Not only does Li Wenwan herself not want to go back, but Shen Wang is actually willing for Li Wenwan to return; however, that guy Shen Xiao is quite resistant.

There's no way; from childhood, Li Wenwan has been a little witch, and Li Xiao is almost being driven to psychological trauma by her. Anyway, when he was young and got scolded, nine out of ten times were related to Li Wenwan.

Li Xiao has complained more than once, 'Wenwan, Wenwan, you've totally wasted that name—this little witch, where's any gentleness?'
