Chapter 27 - Chapter 27: Lottery Time! Eyes of Inquiry! Unrivaled Territory

[Popularity Points: Over 80,000]

[Premium Points: Over 500 million]

[Total Accumulated Credits: 1,302 million +]

As Lin Yu reviewed the data on the system panel, a satisfied smile spread across his face.

The promotional effect was far better than he had imagined.

Points could be used to participate in the system's lottery draws, while Premium Points directly added to his personal account balance!

In just half a day, he already earned 500 million Premium Points.

Among these, two hundred million were contributed by a single wealthy benefactor.

Previously, with limited funds, Lin Yu had to drift aimlessly and subsist on meager meals. Now, suddenly having wealth at his disposal, he found himself momentarily unsure how to spend it.

He opted for luxurious accommodations and indulged in local gourmet cuisine.

"Life doesn't get much better than this," Lin Yu sighed contentedly, sipping his refreshing drink.

Next, he opened the system's lottery interface.

Although his current lifestyle was comfortable, ensuring long-term peace required formidable self-protection capabilities.

The lottery interface had three tiers:

[Ordinary Lottery: 10,000 points per draw]

[Epic Lottery: 1,000,000 points per draw]

[Legendary Lottery: 100,000,000 points per draw (Contains only Legendary items)]

Lin Yu disregarded the first two tiers outright.

It's all or nothing when gambling!

Go big or go home!

"Ten Legendary-level draws!"

"Buzz!"

"Buzz!"

"Buzz!"

The first three attempts yielded nothing.

True to its Legendary status, even if no prize was awarded, it steadfastly refused to clutter the pool with any junk.

Just as Lin Yu pondered this thought...

On the fourth draw, a golden light appeared!

Eye of Prying (Legendary): A permanent ability granted to the host, can be activated under any circumstances.

Effect: By meditating on a target or identifying someone through specific clues, the user can observe their current actions, mental state, and behavioral patterns.

This ability bypasses all obstacles and cannot be detected by the observed target.

Reading this description, Lin Yu was astonished.

"Isn't this the ultimate fantasy for a voyeuristic pervert?!"

"But I'm definitely not that kind of person!" he quickly added.

With that, Lin Yu immediately activated the ability.

After feeling complete mastery over it, he nodded in satisfaction.

Next, he continued checking the remaining draw results.

There were still six left. What if there's another gold prize?

It turned out dreams do come true!

During the final draw, a burst of golden light illuminated once again.

[My Territory, My Dominion! (Legendary) (Rule-based Ability): Grants the host a one-time use ability, activatable under any circumstances.]

[Effect: Allows the host to designate up to three Territories, with each Territory not exceeding 250 square meters in area. Within these Territories, the host possesses supreme control and can eliminate any threats within its bounds.]

"Wow, this ability...!?"

Initially, Lin Yu had hoped for something that would directly grant him Aeon-level power or at least Emanator-level strength as a minimum.

But the two abilities he obtained were even more extraordinary than expected!

Instead of simply providing raw power, they enabled him to control and establish certain rules.

After pondering for a moment, Lin Yu realized that if utilized effectively, these abilities could be far superior to merely receiving brute force!

With [Eye of Prying], he could select his desired target and gradually guide her into his designated territory.

Once she entered his specified domain, it would be akin to a lamb entering a lion's den!

Under these rules, even if you're an Aeon Star, upon entering, you'd instantly transform into a harmless little loli.

Lin Yu couldn't wait to experience this absolute control firsthand.

Looking around, Lin Yu assessed the surroundings.

This hotel, luxurious by Xianzhou's standards, still couldn't hide its commercialized atmosphere—it felt overly extravagant.

With only three opportunities available, they had to be used wisely.

Lin Yu opened their phone and booked a local property viewing appointment.

The plan was to purchase a small villa.

As for the location, it would be near Aurum Alley.

Compared to Exalting Sanctum, this area might not be as bustling but offered a more tranquil lifestyle, with dining and entertainment options that were closer to everyday experiences.

Shortly after, a foxfolk saleswoman added Lin Yu's contact details.

True to her high-status role, she demonstrated impressive efficiency!

Her voice was pleasant, and she herself was quite attractive.

In accordance with Lin Yu's request, she presented three housing options. Two were traditional villa styles, while the third incorporated elements of a quadrangle courtyard design.

Naturally, the latter option was significantly pricier than the first two. The initial ones cost around 2 billion, whereas the last one approached 4 billion directly.

Lin Yu decisively chose the latter option and paid in full upfront.

The fox girl was visibly taken aback by such generosity!

"Little brother, you're so accomplished at a young age, successful in your endeavors, and now owning this magnificent estate. It's truly awe-inspiring," she said with eyes filled with tender admiration.

"The ownership papers are all sorted out. Would you like to accompany me for a tour of the manor?"

"Certainly! However, I have a close friend here as well. Do you mind inviting her along for the visit, little brother?"

A bonus companion?

Just as Lin Yu was about to agree, the fox girl quickly added without hesitation, "My foxfolk friend is named Tingyun, and she serves as a ferry envoy at the Sky-Faring Commission..."

Wait a moment!

Did she say who?

Lin Yu instantly became alert.

At this point, was this Tingyun the real one or Phantylia's doppelganger?

If it's the latter...

Then,

then it gets even more thrilling!

"No problem, little sister. Please discuss it with Tingyun when you return. If possible, send me a message beforehand, allowing me to prepare a warm welcome for both of you."

"Aiya, Boss Lin, you're too gracious! I hardly know what to say." The foxfolk little sister covered her mouth with a charming smile, "Then it's settled, oh?"
