Chapter 578: Chapter 578 I’ll Lead the Way for You
Counting Lotcar the semi-tank and He ng who finally decided to pitch in, Yang Yu’s team had three front-liners, which was barely enough.
Sadly, Yang Yu and his group still lacked control skills. Most of their control ca from Bai Jin’s Frost Magic’s slowing and freezing effects; the tanks’ contribution to control was pitifully little.
Even now, Yang Yu had still not gotten his hands on the much-coveted “Taunt” skill, which plagued his thoughts day and night.
The “Taunt” skill, a basic skill in other gas, Yang Yu never thought it would be so hard to obtain.
Maybe it was because he recently taunted others less often; he must increase his efforts imdiately.
However, upon arriving in Baihua City, Yang Yu could finally try to acquire another control skill he had been obsessing over day and night.
And as for the other one, a damage-increasing skill that could only be used after his Blood Volu dropped to a certain level.
With half a day left before his appointnt with Qian Xialan, Yang Yu wanted to obtain both skills.
“Is everything you just said true?”
Suddenly, a voice rose from behind Yang Yu. He turned around and saw a pretty two-tailed fox swordsman walking out of the city gate, Xin Mang Madeline.
Yang Yu stopped his ascent toward Lotcar’s back and landed firmly on the ground, asking:
“What’s true or false?”
Xin Mang averted her gaze, scratching her cheek, “I an, about you saying you’re a Plant-man.”
Yang Yu wasn’t surprised by what Xin Mang brought up; he had seen her hiding behind a pillar when he left the Imperial Palace. But he pretended to be surprised as he replied:
“It should be true. The first ti you saw , I wasn’t looking like this. The current is just another evolution from before.
But how do you know I’m a Plant-man? Were you in the palace just now? How did you get in?”
“Just entered in a very ordinary way.
You know about the cause of the war, don’t you?
In order to save two children, I shattered a statue of the Luo Ze Empire…
After that day, I’ve been through a lot.
I had monts of decline and regret, and even thought of death as an end to all things, but after careful consideration, I believe that what I did back then was not wrong, and eventually, I erged from the shadows.
To protect , His Majesty the King and the Pri Minister gave a special pass, which allows to enter the Imperial Palace whenever I’m in trouble.
If you don’t believe , I can show it to you right now!”
Reaching inside her clothing, Xin Mang flashed a red special pass,
“I intended to greet you and His Majesty Qian Xialan after your conversation was over, but you ran off so quickly, I didn’t get to say hello to His Majesty Qian Xialan, so I followed you…”
As she spoke, Xin Mang suddenly realized that Yang Yu and Lotcar had vanished without a trace.
Turning around, Xin Mang found that Yang Yu and Lotcar had quietly walked off side by side.
Xin Mang, irritated, ran towards Yang Yu and grabbed his shoulder, even though she was so worried about his identity being exposed and ca to warn him kindly, he actually walked off without any appreciation.
“Hey! I’m talking to you! Why did you walk off without saying a word?”
Yang Yu answered, “I just realized that knowing the answer to the question doesn’t seem to bring any benefits.”
“Even if there’s no benefit, it was you who asked the question; listen to to the end.” Xin Mang crossed her arms in dissatisfaction, her tails swishing behind her, “Moreover, I ca up to talk to you for your own good. You don’t have a place to stay yet, do you? Co with ; I know a good inn.”
Yang Yu said indifferently, “Oh? Let’s hear it.”
“Your attitude is really annoying. You understand your current situation, right? Even though you’re a mixed Plant Clan, the Human scent on you is undeniable, and if discovered, you would definitely be troubled and unable to rest well, creating a terrible impression for the eting with His Majesty tomorrow.”
Xin Mang patted her chest,
“As long as you follow and stay in the inn I recomnd, you’ll definitely get a good night’s sleep, and you’ll be energetic and full of stamina for the audience with His Majesty and the Pri Minister tomorrow.”
Yang Yu spread his hands helplessly, “At the end of the day, you’ve just co to tout an inn. How much commission are you getting?”
“Not at all! I’m not like the average adventurer; do I look like soone hawking inns to you?” Xin Mang’s hand rested on her sword hilt, “I advise you to stop making jokes. If you do, I might just cut you. If you don’t want to go, just say no, don’t besmirch my good intentions.”
“Sorry. It’s just that I haven’t t soone as kind-hearted as you for a long ti.” Yang Yu apologized with a smile, “However, before we head back to the inn for rest, I have so things to take care of and I am afraid I can’t go back with you just yet.”
“Should have said that earlier.” Xin Mang let go of her sword, “If you want treatnt, I also know a few good doctors at a very fair price.”
Yang Yu shook his head, “It’s not a matter of illness; I want to et soone from the Blood Lion Clan.”
“Blood Lion Clan?”
Hearing Yang Yu ntion this race, Xin Mang was stunned for a mont.
The Blood Lion Clan is the race guarding the Royal Family of this nation. Strictly speaking, the current direct lineage of the Royal Family still can be considered a branch of the Blood Lion Clan.
Having the collateral branch beco Emperor and the direct descendants beco the guards seed sowhat like an inversion of roles.
“What do you want with them?” After a while, Xin Mang asked.
Yang Yu answered truthfully, “There are areas of swordsmanship I’m not quite comfortable with. I’ve heard they possess so distinct skills that I’d like to learn.”
“Learning skills? From them? Are you sure you’re not joking?”
“I’m not joking; I’m serious. Anyway, I want to et them first. Whether or not I can learn from them, we’ll see later. If you’re willing to go with , let’s go together; if not, you can wait here for . After I finish seeking their teaching, I’ll co back to find you.”
“This…” Xin Mang pondered for a mont, then confidently puffed up her chest, “I’m willing to go with you. I’m not boasting, but I have so connections with them. With around, I guarantee that within a few days, you’ll definitely learn the skills you want.”
After speaking, Xin Mang suddenly realized sothing and her voice rose sharply,
“Wait, don’t you have an audience with the Queen tomorrow? And then you’re setting off for the Life Forest? The skills of the Blood Lion Clan aren’t that easy to master!”
“I have my ways. Since you know the way, lead on.”
“You… Isn’t this where you’re supposed to express gratitude properly?”
“Thank you. Now, should we be on our way?”
“Such a perfunctory response.” Xin Mang pouted in dissatisfaction, “Fine, I’ll let it go this ti as the bigger person, but next ti after accepting help from soone, you must rember to say thank you properly.”
