212 Maid Servant Dong’er (1/2)
Chapter 212: Maid Servant Dong’er
The little loli who ran in had not grown up yet. She looked even smaller than Yi Yun. She wore a loose dress and because it was inconvenient to run in it, she used her two tiny hands to clutch her skirt while running. The bangs on her forehead bounced as she ran.
Luo Huo’er immediately wrinkled her cute pair of small eyebrows, “What’s with the panic? Seriously, shouting over some matter. Lady-like! Do you know what it means to be lady-like?”
Luo Huo’er pointed at the young girl’s head without any reservations. With her lecture, the young girl’s forehead turned red.
The young girl said in a very wronged manner, “Miss, Dong’er knows.”
This young girl was Luo Huo’er’s servant girl. Amazingly, Luo Huo’er actually brought a servant girl when she entered the Tai Ah Divine City. Others, even people from the royal family like Yang Qian did not bring an imperial maid or a eunuch with them.
“Tell me, what’s the big deal? Is the Mimi you are rearing not eating again?”
Mimi was Dong’er and Luo Huo’er’s cat. Not only did Luo Huo’er bring a servant girl with her into the Tai Ah Divine City, she also brought a cat.
“Uh… no.” Dong’er shook her head like a rattle. She had a cute mushroom hairstyle, and with this shake of her head, her silky hair flew up. “Missus, some… someone has broken a record.”
“Broken a record…” Luo Huo’er was stunned for a while, “You said broken a record!? Who broke it?”
Luo Huo’er widened her already excessively large eyes.
Was something wrong? No record had been broken in the Tai Ah Divine City in a few thousand years! She was just about to break one, but someone had beaten her to it. How could there be such a coincidence!?
“Yes… Yes, that person is called Yi Yun. He broke the herb-picking record. I think he’s 12-13 years old.”
“Yi Yun? The brat who got lucky and picked a primordial herb?” Luo Huo’er had previously heard of Yi Yun picking the Heaven Purple Yang Ginseng that failed surviving a calamity.
She was very jealous of Yi Yun’s luck. Why didn’t she pick it? With the Heaven Purple Yang Ginseng, she could use it to practice. It was a primordial herb and she had never refined a primordial herb into a drug before.
It was unexpected that just a few days later, Yi Yun had broken the herb-picking record.
Luo Huo’er was extremely pissed. If she broke a record after Yi Yun, it wouldn’t be as impressive.
“He was cheating. He earned a lot of dragon scale runes from picking the primordial herb. This herb was probably more than half of the record!”
Luo Huo’er ground her teeth as she felt disgruntled.
She was supposed to be the first, but now Yi Yun broke the record purely due to good luck. Besides, how could a herb-picking record compare to a Desolate Heaven technique record?
The Desolate Heaven technique record was a big record, and its rewards were excellent! Not only would it be regarded highly by the upper echelon of the Tai Ah Divine City, once it was broken, one could leave one’s name on Sage Avenue and even stir up the entire Tai Ah Divine Kingdom.
As for picking herbs… That was practically the worst record in the Tai Ah Divine City. The person who designed that record probably did it out of a whim. The rewards were also pathetic.
How could the herb-picking record compare with the Desolate Heaven technique record? They were far from being on the same level! But, both of them had the same term of “breaking a record”.
This was unfair! What right did one have to say “breaking a record” by picking herbs.
“Forget it, I won’t stoop down so low as to compare mine with such a low level record.” Luo Huo’er consoled herself and slowly calmed herself.
“Right, Missus. Yi Yun offended the Hongdao Association. In the upcoming rookie competition, the Hongdao Association will be specifically ‘taking care’ of Yi Yun. It seems all of them want to fight Yi Yun…”
Dong’er told her another piece of information.
However, Luo Huo’er was uninterested in this piece of information. “Hongdao Association? An organization formed of a bunch of brats only. Brats fighting against brats is something compatible.”
Luo Huo’er was completely uninterested in the arena level Yi Yun was involved in. What standard could they have?
In fact, Luo Huo’er was not ranked high on the Heaven and Earth rankings, only in the Man rankings was she ranked first.
A person had limited energy and time. Luo Huo’er spent most of her time practicing the Desolate Heaven technique and alchemy. As a result, she seldom went out to hunt desolate beasts, so her ranking on the Heaven roll of honor was very low.
As for the arena battles, Luo Huo’er never participated in it after the rookie rankings. Her reason was, “It is irritating to always be challenged.”
…
After the news of Yi Yun breaking the herb-picking record spread, the Hongdao Association naturally learned of it.
Regarding this, the Hongdao Association was very happy. Picking herbs did not depend on strength. There was no use breaking the herb picking record. The biggest benefit was that Yi Yun was rich again, allowing them the opportunity to win even more dragon scale runes.
They had already heard that Yi Yun received a one-time award of 25,000 dragon scale runes and 2 glory points from breaking the herb-picking record.
Added with the amount Yi Yun earned from picking herbs, and the amount he borrowed from the usury, a conservative estimate of Yi Yun’s wealth was above 35,000 dragon scale runes!
