Chapter 16: The Princess in a Huff
A single stone stirs up a thousand waves.
Su Yu casually shared his joy.
Then, his private messages were flooded.
This scared him into quickly disabling the private chat function.
The entire chat interface was left with only one person's messages.
It was also the only lord he had added since entering the Multiverse Battlefield.
The only lord added.
Bai Bai Xiaowei: "Great Su Yu, can I come to your place for a meal?"
Su Yu: "It's 50 kilometers away... Are you sure?"
Bai Bai Xiaowei: "Anyway, if I die, I can resurrect. I'll keep trying tomorrow, and I'll eventually get to your place."
Su Yu: "...Not developing your territory?"
Bai Bai Xiaowei: "There's a Dark Flame Dragon at the entrance of my territory. How can I develop it?"
Bai Bai Xiaowei: "My troops and heroes are too afraid to disturb it, so they don't even dare to go out."
Bai Bai Xiaowei: "Even the peasants are terrified when cutting down trees, fearing that any noise might lower their loyalty significantly."
Bai Bai Xiaowei: "Seriously, why did an epic-level leader have to spawn right at my doorstep?"
Su Yu: "My condolences... Actually, there's also a legendary one near your territory."
Bai Bai Xiaowei: "..."
Bai Bai Xiaowei: "Great Su Yu, you must save me soon! I'm waiting for you to grow stronger!"
Su Yu: "OK."
Even without Bai Bai Xiaowei saying it, Su Yu was already eyeing that epic-level leader.
After the meal, Su Yu closed the chat window.
Regarding what Bai Bai Xiaowei said about coming over tomorrow,
he didn't take it seriously.
50 kilometers,
he really didn't believe that a newly graduated girl could endure such hardship and have the stamina for it.
And it's a rugged forest path.
With nothing else to do, he opened his terminal and browsed the Blue Star forum.
At this moment, the photo he had posted in the group had already been uploaded to the forum by a classmate.
The photo didn't show any people, but the lavish feast, along with the B-class restaurant's windows, tables, and ceiling lights, were easily recognizable.
Without special design plans, all B-class restaurants look like this.
Clicking on the comments, as expected, it was a barrage of curses.
"Damn capitalism!"
"This is outrageous, absolutely insane!"
"Is this already a Level 3 territory?"
"Damn, how many new lord starter packs did he open?!"
"At least hundreds of young adults over 18 lost their chance to become lords."
New lords can trade through the Trading House,
and to reach Level 3 territory on the third day,
apart from backroom deals, they couldn't think of any other way.
"Pure jealousy!"
"Exactly, he's just a commoner."
"I'm his classmate, and I can vouch for him."
"Shut up, all of you!"
"Commoner?"
"Just tell me, how could he gather so much territory energy to upgrade the lord crystal in just three days?"
"What if... he sold some good items?"
The classmates supporting Su Yu felt a bit uneasy.
"What kind of good items could sell for so much territory energy?"
"Do you think those tycoons' descendants are fools, buying garbage with territory energy?"
"That's not certain!"
"Didn't someone sell a legendary dragon eye for 100,000 territory energy before?"
"Haha."
"A legendary dragon eye, that would attract the attention of all races."
A user with a very flamboyant ID, White Emperor, replied, "What if he was the one who sold it?"
"He sold it?"
"Dream on!"
"If he sold it, I'll live-stream eating three pounds of shit!"
"Some forum experts analyzed that unless he killed one of his own legendary units, and it had to be a dragon, there's no way to get it."
"Hilarious, still insisting on the legendary dragon eye. Does your classmate even have a legendary unit?"
Su Yu watched the arguments for a while. Since his classmates were speaking up for him, he decided to reply.
Su Mu Luo Yu: "It was indeed me who sold it. When will you start the live stream?"
Lazy Luan Luan: "Oh, the main character has arrived?"
"Still being stubborn here?"
"Your boasting has gone too far, your mom is calling you home to fix your brain!"
"You, selling a legendary dragon eye?"
"On the entire Blue Star, only Her Highness the Princess has a legendary unit. Where did you, a nobody, come from? Do you want to be on par with Her Highness?"
"Ha, the hope of our Blue Star's new generation has arrived. Everyone, aren't you going to welcome them with applause?"
There were many sarcastic and mocking comments on the forum,
especially from the ID 'Luan Luan, the Freeloader,' who had boasted about eating three catties of shit and kept hurling insults at Su Yu.
In response, Su Yu did not retort but simply posted a screenshot of the [Trading House] sales record.
Su Mu Luo Yu: "@Luan Luan, the Freeloader, remember to @ me when you start your live stream."
Instantly, the forum fell silent.
The legendary figure who sold the Legendary Dragon Eye is really from our Blue Star?!
White Emperor: "The great god has arrived, why haven't you all knelt down yet?"
"Kneeling in front and paying homage!"
"Kneeling in front and paying homage +1!"
"Big shot 6666666 wow!"
"Front row begging to hug the big leg!"
"Damn... impressive."
All the abusive comments instantly disappeared, with some deleting their posts and others running away,
leaving only a sea of flattery.
……
"Your Highness, a legendary figure selling the Legendary Dragon Eye has appeared on the Blue Star forum. The Emperor is preparing to allocate resources to support him."
"Oh?"
Gu Gu Linger, dressed in a white dress and using the lord terminal, raised an eyebrow:
"What's his name?"
She hadn't paid much attention to the matter of the Legendary Dragon Eye being sold in the Trading House.
If she were to slaughter her Legendary unit, the Ice Phoenix, she could also list the Legendary Ice Phoenix Tail Feather for sale in the Trading House.
But given the value of a Legendary unit, she would have to be out of her mind to do so.
Therefore, in her view, this was just a foolish attempt to grab attention.
"His forum ID is Su Mu Luo Yu. We are currently investigating his specific identity."
The voice from the terminal made Gu Gu Linger pause for a moment,
and then she cursed, "No need to investigate, there's no point in supporting him!"
"Princess... Your Highness?"
"He even refused the position of Imperial Son-in-Law. Do you think he would accept your support?" Gu Gu Linger burst into anger.
"This... Is he that Su Yu?"
"Who else but that Su Yu?" Gu Gu Linger gritted her teeth.
