Chapter 126 (1/2)
Merylu Lori: (level 44)
When Lulu channeled her magic, Wu Yan opened his system detection and was quite surprised at what he saw.
When he parted with her about 2 to 3 months ago, Lulu was just at level 35. And now, she’s actually increased her level by 9. Just one level short of a whole tier jump!
It’s not that hard to go up to tier 5 from tier 4 in this manner but it surely isn’t as easy as it was on lower tiers…
Even Wu Yan can’t help but feel admiration for her talent, though he might have made it to tier 7 in a duration of not more than half a year. Even if she had the support of the number one family within the empire, she can’t possibly compete with Wu Yan who is basically a haxxor…
The exchange of wind blade and ice pike between Hughes and Lulu shocked the spectators. It’s not just the sudden development between the two and also because they were shocked by the two’s abilities.
They could all see that the two are clearly still young, at least they aren’t twenty yet. And yet, they had such strength that they could cast a spell in such a short time without anyone seeing them chant.
The spectators that are shocked calmed down after a while. It’s only been a few days after a twenty something tier 7 appeared. This level of spectacle has lost its rarity so to speak.
Back at the field, Hughes flinched when he saw Lulu intervene. Lulu on the other hand has a very angry look on her beautiful face.
“Hughes! How dare you attack my friend like that!”
Lulu stomped her feet.
Back at the supply town some time ago, her own subordinate attacked Wu Yan. At the end of it, Wu Yan was alright but Lulu couldn’t stop blaming herself over the whole thing ever since.
Wu Yan is her friend and her own people attacked her friend. Lulu placed all the blame on herself because she’s too kind and pure.
It was lucky that Wu Yan got away without a scratch otherwise Lulu will probably carry this trauma with her for her whole life.
Lulu’s actually quiet nervous when she met him again. She wondered whether or not her precious friend would leave her because of reasons like that.
She thought it to be fortuitous that Wu Yan didn’t seem to have given the event much weight. Although it was quite awkward when she met him again, but the two quickly returned to the state of familiarity the two once had in the supply town.
Lulu could finally relax and then it happened, again. Her own people attacked Wu Yan again!
Due to people looking to take advantage of her background, she had to grow up learning how to read people out of necessity. How could she not know the reason that Hughes attacked Wu Yan is because of her!
Thus, Lulu is mad.
Her first and probably the only male friend she made, attacked time and time again by her people. Lulu felt guilt and at the same time she felt anger.
In other words, Hughes f.u.c.ked up big time!
“Yan, I’m so sorry, I…. I…”
Lulu turned aroound to look at Wu Yan wanting to say something but couldn’t exactly figure out what to say until finally she began to teaer up.
Wu Yan lost control of his laugh when he saw her feeling all wronged.
“Dear Lulu, surely you don’t think I would be mad at you just because of some dude I met today who by the way doesn’t leave a very good impression?”
“You aren’t mad?”
Lulu tilted her head while asking in a weak manner.
Wu Yan sighed.
“Of course not. No matter how you look at it, from right to left and up to down, this isn’t related to you at all.”
“But…”
“No buts!”
Wu Yan placed his hand on Lulu’s head and then he rubbed it good. He kept rubbing until her hair turned into what resembles a chicken nest before he stopped.
“Just know that it isn’t your fault and that’s all there is to it!”
Lulu nodded her head while in a daze. She stopped crying and smiled when she saw Wu Yan’s face. She quickly realized her hair’s state and tidied her hair while looking unamused.
“Trashy peasant! Abominable trashy peasant!”
Hughes cultivation his whole life disappeared without a trace today. His heart started to turn dark from the mixture of him calling her ‘Dear Lulu”, that intimate action going on between the two and their apparent interaction.
“Young miss, he’s just a lowly trashy peasant, how can you lower yourself and a.s.sociate with someone of his level ? If the elders were to hear about this they would be retorting as well!”
His hand that were holding onto the staff began to turn green just from the sheer strength he is putting into them. Hughes didn’t notice this however as he kept looking at Wu Yan with animosity, how he wished he could tear him to shreds.
“I haven’t settled my matter with you yet, how dare you start pointing fingers at me!”
