1639 Departure! A New Journey! (1)
Wang Teng temporarily dismissed the idea of transferring luck points to the Luck Tear. Sending all his points over wasn’t viable.
He was used to having good luck and couldn’t imagine what would happen with a drop in fortune.
How scary!
He then focused on a different attribute… the Heaven-Earth Calamity Lightning!
Heaven-Earth Calamity Lightning: 4500/10000 (first-rank)
It was a sizable increase. The hero nodded.
“Let’s go!” he said to Lin Chuhan and got ready to leave.
The young woman nodded.
The couple ran into a few individuals the moment they walked out of the smithing room. Wang Teng raised his eyebrows.
“You must be Grandmaster Wang. Indeed, young and promising,” said a middle-aged man in front of a group. The slightly plump fellow was all smiles as he walked over with enthusiasm.
It was a heaven stage martial warrior!
“You are…” Wang Teng was puzzled.
He noticed that the person standing behind the man was the senior man who was serving as his liaison.
The plump middle-aged man introduced himself. “I’m the person in charge of this branch, Achille.”
“Nice to meet you.” The hero offered a polite nod.
While the Secondary Career Alliance’s overseer held a respectable position, the young hero was grandmaster, a person of an even higher status. There was no need to be overly polite or deferential. He needed to uphold his status.
“Grandmaster Wang, what did you forge? How could it cause such a lightning calamity?” the overseer asked prudently.
“Is there a problem?” Wang Teng saw it coming.
The recent tribulation had been anything but normal; drawing attention was only natural. Being responsible for the alliance’s operations justified him showing up to find the cause.
“No problem at all. However, the lightning calamity…” Achille was afraid of offending the earl, so he was caught in a dilemma.
“I think it was just a fluke. I’m in the dark about this, just as you are,” said the hero while shaking his head, appearing genuinely puzzled. He continued, “I will compensate accordingly if needed be.”
“Look at what you’re saying. Only one array suffered damage; that is not a problem. No compensation is needed,” the overseer replied in a hurry. “Since it was just a coincidence, I won’t keep you any longer.”
Wang Teng nodded and left quietly with Lin Chuhan.
Achille stared at the hero’s back with an ambiguous gaze.
The staff member behind the plump fellow asked. “Sir, this…”
“Since Grandmaster Wang says that it’s a coincidence, it’s a coincidence.” The former glanced at his aide and laughed.
“Yes.” The staff member shuddered and quickly nodded.
“Bowen, do you think the lightning calamity summoned by Grandmaster Wang was… reliable?” Achille asked, rubbing his chin as he looked at the middle-aged fellow next to him.
Bowen gave him an awkward smile and replied, “I don’t think so.”
“That’s right. How can a normal tribulation fail to strike its target? It must be something wrong with the calamity itself.” The overseer clapped his hands.
“You’re right.” Bowen nodded, the corners of his lips twitching.
…
The young pair left the alliance chapter and drove their flying rune car and went back to the manor.
“Will this matter affect you?” Lin Chuhan asked worriedly.
The tribulation had indeed been strange. She was worried that someone could start to investigate the matter.
“Don’t worry. They wouldn’t risk offending me just for an unknown factor.” He flashed a lighthearted smile.
The young woman nodded in silence.
The sky had grown dark by then. Wang Teng only took a day to make a pill and forge the Luck Tear. His efficiency level was sky high.
The pair ate dinner and took a stroll within the manor. Then, the hero pulled Lin Chuhan into a room.
“What do you want?” She blushed. Is this fellow going to do something weird? Has the day finally arrived?
“What are you thinking?” Wang Teng was stunned for a moment before he leaned towards her with a smirk.
“Nothing. I’m not thinking of anything.” Her ears turned red. The hero had the urge to pinch them.
He reached out and gave a gentle squeeze. His eyes lit up at once; the feeling was superb.
Wang Teng felt he discovered something extraordinary, never imagining that a girl’s earlobe could be so soft. It felt like… jelly!
He wanted to lick it.
Lin Chuhan felt weak. She murmured in a shy and sweet voice, “Don’t…”
The young earl couldn’t bear it anymore. He kissed her.
The two parted after some time. Wang Teng still had a lingering desire for more.
She lightly tapped him and said with a playful pout, “You’ve become naughtier.”
“Haha, really?” Wang Teng smiled. He took out the Luck Tear and said, “Let me put it on you.”
“Wang Teng, this is too precious. I can’t take it. You need it more than me,” she said.
“Take it. I bought it for you.”
“But…” Lin Chuhan wanted to reject it again.
“No buts.” Wang Teng ignored Lin Chuhan’s rejection and placed the jewel around her slender and fair neck.
“Seriously…” She was a bit annoyed by Wang Teng’s domineering behavior, and yet, she felt a hint of sweetness in her heart at the same time.
“Actually, you’re mistaken. It doesn’t have much effect on me,” said the hero with a smile.
“Really?” The girl still had her doubts.
“Why would I lie to you?” Wang Teng said as he observed the bejeweled result. He nodded in satisfaction. “Yes, it looks great on you.”
