Chereads / Emulator: Opening Talent Super Gigolo / Chapter 21 - Cloudmist Mountain Manor

Chapter 21 - Cloudmist Mountain Manor

The second young master was instantly knocked by something into one of the maze's walls!

"Mn?"

He gritted his teeth in pain. After that, he erupted forth with his strength and punched the maze wall!

However, the expected wall explosion didn't occur!

The second young master of the Rong Clan was stunned, and his heart couldn't help but sink.

Had he underestimated this maze?

"Young master!" At this moment, his guard in the second-realm also entered the maze.

The strongest cultivator in the Rong Clan Corporation was the chairman, who was a fourth-realm cultivator.

Also, there were only a few third-realm cultivators around, so they couldn't be used as guards for his son.

Even so, the second young master of the Rong Clan was already a powerful cultivator in the second realm. In truth, this guard was redundant and was merely for show.

"You! Attack without regard for your life! I want to see what's going on with this maze!"

At this moment, Lin Chang`an stood inside the maze and panted heavily. He was still terrified.

Fortunately, he had guessed correctly.

This female ghost possessed the ability to control the maze.

This time around, he had asked the female ghost for help and managed to trap the young master inside.

However, Lin Chang`an thought about more things. "Since he has noticed me, it appears that killing him is the most optimal choice!"

Right now, the Rong Clan Corporation was capable of blotting out the skies of Qindao City with a single hand; it was a major entity. How could a poor student like him go against them?

Now that the second young master had his eyes on him, he naturally had to eliminate the former thoroughly to prevent trouble from arising in the future.

"But given my cultivation base, I won't be able to injure him at all even if he stood there and allowed me to attack freely."

A second-realm expert was two life-tiers away from him, and he wouldn't be able to injure them no matter how madly he attacked.

He frowned and pondered. All of a sudden, he felt the maze starting to shake. The feeling of the time-space here in chaos actually appeared!

Lin Chang`an felt as though he had sunk into a dream.

There was a strange light before him, but he suddenly felt the light had blurred in the blink of an eye. However, he regained his senses at the next moment.

He looked at the ghostly shadow floating in the air and knew that she had helped him.

"Many thanks!"

Right now, Lin Chang`an even thought of directly helping her to remove her veil.

The feeling of chaotic time-space kept changing in intensity. Very soon, Lin Chang`an heard the second young master screaming in agony.

"His mind is extremely weak…!" There was an instantaneous reaction.

The ghost mobilized all the power of the maze and made the second young master sink into unconsciousness.

This secret realm had something to do with one's mental might. Hence, it wasn't strange that the maze could do this.

Lin Chang`an quietly waited in the maze.

And just like this, after an unknown period, the maze suddenly stopped shaking. A moment later, the maze vanished, and an empty area appeared once more.

Lin Chang`an cautiously headed forward and soon discovered the second young master's corpse.

Right now, the second young master's appearance was terrifying. His entire body was actually withered and dry, as though he died of old age here!

His skin was stuck tightly to his bones, and he was like a dry corpse. His expression before death was one of despair.

The second-realm expert guard was beside him and also died in the same manner.

"How did they die…?"

Lin Chang`an was shocked, but he didn't hesitate.

Given the current situation, there would be a problem if others saw this.

Also, he didn't dare to take the items on the Rong Clan's second young master's body.

Who knew if there were any special tracking marks on them?

He soon came to the location where he had jumped in. On the way here, he avoided all cultivators, and the ghostly shadow was still floating above his shoulder.

Lin Chang`an started. "Y...you want to go out with me?"

A dungeon could be considered a special dimension. It was another space.

Logically speaking, creatures in the dungeons could only survive there. They absolutely couldn't come out.

At this moment, the shadow didn't speak and simply stood on his shoulders quietly.

Lin Chang`an then saw a gleam of light in the air. This place was the connection to reality, a crack in the stable space of the dungeon.

After that, he stomped down with force, and the surging qi and blood within him allowed him to leap several tens of meters into the air!

His entire body leaped toward the light.

The feeling of passing through time and space then flooded his mind. However, the space here was much more stable, as he could no longer see any spatial turbulence.

He passed through the spatial crack instantly and arrived back in reality before he opened his eyes again.

The moment Lin Chang`an came out, his first response was to glance at the area above his left shoulder. "Huh?!"

The female ghost really came out with him!

He felt fear in his heart. The textbooks had never recorded something like this before.

However, even though he was now outside, no one noticed the ghost.

"They cannot see the ghostly shadow?"

Lin Chang`an was surprised.

It was impossible for people to not react if they saw a ghostly shadow on his shoulder.

The only explanation was that these people basically couldn't see it.

After that, he didn't hesitate and left swiftly. His qi and blood churned and he made a few jumps, vanishing from the place.

He soon came outside of the ruined area. Chu Li's Bentley was parked in a small alleyway there, and she was waiting for him.

"Ah~ Little Chang`an, you've returned." Chu Li's eyes gleamed brightly.

Lin Chang`an could now confirm that the others really couldn't see the female ghost on his shoulders.

"Quick, let me see what good stuff you brought out with you~" Chu Li pulled Lin Chang`an's hand, appearing very concerned for him. In reality, she was anxiously trying to pull the interspatial ring off his finger.

The crystal had long since been removed by Lin Chang`an.

Earlier, he had attempted to use his qi and blood to spark a reaction, but he discovered that his strength was like a drop of water in the vast sea, resulting in the crystal showing no reaction at all.

After this item left the dungeon, it was as though it had lost the source of its power.

And if Lin Chang`an wanted to make it regain its powers, this clearly wasn't something he could do at his current cultivation level.

"I will give it a try after I reach the first-realm. The value of this item is definitely extraordinary."

Right now, Chu Li's channeled her intent and glanced at the space inside the ring. Very soon, her eyes brightened.

"Five stalks of spirit-passage grass, and there's even a 300-year-old one among them!"

At this moment in the system interface in Lin Chang`an's mind, a new character appeared on the character selection page: Chu Li.

Evidently, the entanglement degree wasn't enough yet, so he couldn't simulate her life.

However, a new character appeared just like that.

"What's the reasoning for each character to appear?" Lin Chang`an contemplated.

Was it due to the number of times each character appeared in his simulations? Or were there some special conditions?

Chu Li was still taking stock.

"Blackiron diamonds of over 5,000 kg? Boohoo, I feel so bad about my ring."

She had a sullen look on her face. The space in her interspatial ring was so valuable, but it was used to transport blackiron diamonds.

"What if the space inside got damaged from the weight? There's no way to repair it. But since the quantity is so much, it would be worth several tens of thousands at the very least."

"$90,000 + $30,000 + $15,000, +$45,000…"

She murmured and did the calculations for the treasures Lin Chang`an had brought up. "A total of $370,000. My heavens! This is the first time I ever succeeded in my business!"

As she spoke, she jumped around in joy and danced while hugging Lin Chang`an's neck.

"What business is this exactly?"

Lin Chang`an didn't understand how her brains worked. 

What they were doing was merely transacting treasures taken from a dungeon. What sort of business was this?

At most, it was considered a side business.

However, he also felt joy in his heart when he heard about the $370,000.

After the 50-50 split, he would be able to obtain $185,500. And after deducting the money for six spirit fish, he would still have over $120,000.

"As expected of a C-Grade dungeon."

Lin Chang`an sighed. The treasures he took out were merely treasures found in the outer perimeter.

The truly valuable treasures were those ghostly spirits.

After vanquishing them, they would release extremely pure yin qi. Moreover, they could also be converted into yin puppets through special refinement methods, and their value would be inestimable.

However, with his cultivation base, he would simply be courting death if he were to go after them.

Chu Li's excitement lasted quite a while, and she only stopped after Lin Chang`an struggled free from her hold on his neck.

After that, she took out her mobile phone. "I will go and dispose of the things in my interspatial ring. I will transfer you $120,000 first, no negotiations."

Lin Chang`an didn't want to argue about the spirit fish. He decided not to be calculative with his boss.

$120,000 was sufficient to buy a high-grade cultivation art. Currently, cultivation to the limit of his qi and blood was the most paramount thing.

His mobile phone vibrated and Chu Li sent $110,000 over.

"Why is it $110,000?"

"Your house has collapsed, where will you stay?"

Lin Chang`an was astonished, he had indeed never thought of this before.

"You can stay at my place. I will first take $10,000 as a deposit."

Lin Chang`an asked, "Can I not stay there…"

"Sure! But the deposit won't be returned."

Black lines then appeared on Lin Chang`an's face.

However, he knew that although Chu Li was black-hearted, the price was definitely fair.

If she said that the rental was $10,000, it means that the standard would really be $10,000. Lin Chang`an was still very assured about Chu Li's character in such matters.

However, he still felt heartache.

As he helplessly shook his head, he got into her Bentley.

"Let's go!" The entire journey was at turtle speed. She slowly drove to the Cloudmist Mountain Manor.

This was the best villa area in Qindao, and it was located on the outskirts.

As this area was very close to the Eastern Sea and was located at the mid-way point of a mountain, clouds covered this place throughout the year. The density of heaven and earth spirit qi was also double that of ordinary places.

Lin Chang`an felt that the pores of his entire body were breathing in the spirit qi.

Under such a location filled with abundance, his cultivation speed would be able to double once again!

Chu Li raised her brows; her charming face then revealed a satisfied smile. "How is it? You don't suffer, right? Anyway, you are going to take the unified examinations soon, so staying in this place is much better compared to staying elsewhere."

There were just 20 more days until the unified examinations. The dense spirit qi naturally would be greatly beneficial to him.

Hence, Lin Chang`an felt warmth in his heart when he heard this.

Chu Li evidently wanted to help him but was also worried that he might not be willing to spend money. This was why she used such a method.

He then followed Chu Li who was entering the password to get into the Cloudmist Mountain Manor. After that, they entered her villa.

There was a stretch of greenery before his eyes, and the false mountains in the surroundings had clouds flowing around them. There were also spirit fishes swimming in the pond, shining with golden light.

"The spirit qi inside the villa is even more abundant."

"Naturally. Each villa here has a spirit gathering formation. So, the density of spirit qi is roughly 2.5x that of your school."

Lin Chang`an inhaled a breath of cold air upon hearing this.

If he could stay here before this, he would definitely not rank last in his class. At the very least, he would be middle in the rankings.

As he thought about this, he sighed. This was the life of the wealthy.

If the person with the highest talent in his class came here to live, their qi and blood value would have probably broken through 1,000 points, and they would gain the foundation to become a first-realm expert.

The two of them headed deeper into the villa.

The infrastructure of this villa was in a quaint Chinese architectural style. Hence, the furniture and building materials were basically rosewood and red sandalwood.

An elegant fragrance that was very incompatible with Chu Li's demeanor drifted over.

Chu Li's whole body radiated charm, and her features were extremely sexy. However, the vibe this place radiated was simple, tranquil, and elegant with a sense of freshness.

Chu Li placed her coat on the sofa. "Wait for me, I will go have a change of clothes first."

After that, she walked up the stairs, and her long legs, which were covered in black laces, exuded an alluring beauty.

Lin Chang`an took two glances at them.

He opened his mobile phone and opened up the Huaxia Cultivator Official Shopping Center app.
