Chapter 140 Casualties of the Nerf (1/2)
Chapter 140 – Casualties of the Nerf
At the royal bath hall, Liu Ping stared at his status menu. He was depressed to the point that he wanted to scream but no voice came out of his mouth.

His skills took another big nerf yet again. Two skills were no longer with him. Only his lifeline [Super Human] skill remained. In addition, all skills had absurd upkeeps, including the useless [Banned] skill from the system.
Liu Ping stared at his skill menu in a daze and noticed a new button beside the [Banned] skill. It was a delete button.
He pressed it without thinking. As soon as his finger touched the button, a new system message popped up in front of him.
<will you=”” delete=”” this=”” [banned]=”” skill?=””>>
<yes o=””>>
Liu Ping pressed ”Yes” without a second thought.
<your [banned]=”” skill=”” has=”” been=”” deleted=””>>
He narrowed his eyes and locked his sight on the message. His facial expression changed from a deep frown into a smile, then it changed back into an angry face again.
'Two thousand years upkeep? Are you kidding me? At this rate, I'll die in 5 years!'
'Should I delete this skill, too? But if I do, then I'll be no different than ordinary human here.'
'I still need this to put Dong Zhuo under my control.'
Liu Ping raised his head and looked at the ceilings. He said to himself.
”System, can I use the system shop now?”
[Yes. You can!]
Noticing that the system no longer held grudge or bias against him, Liu Ping was delighted. He opened the shop to check the contents for the first time in his life, only to be disappointed by the pricing and the restrictions of items.
”This is a scam! Damn it all!”
He tossed a handful of water to the menu screen in annoyance, which the water passed through the screen as if it was an illusion. Liu Ping changed the menu screen into his quest list.

Even after he had canceled the soulmate contract with Wang Li, the quest was still ongoing, but the mission failure punishment changed, which was harsher than the previous one.
”I have to kill Zhang Jiao or Sun Jian to live now. Damn it all!”
Liu Ping spent an entire two hours in the bath hall, thinking of a plan to kill the two historical figures.
He walked out of the bath hall and called the guards.
”Go tell Wang Yun and Dong Zhuo. Tell them to prepare all information they have about Zhang Jiao and Sun Jian. I want their intel tomorrow morning!”
Liu Ping gritted his teeth while he was thinking. It was the time to invite someone into his clan.
'Should I get Dong Zhuo or Wang Yun first?'
