Chapter 67: 67 After You, Part One

67 After You, Part One

“Hehehe…”

Lear had a smug grin on his face. He stood not far away and quietly watched Luo Jin.

‘This idiot, he actually believed what I told him!’

This way, Aloy would definitely hate him, and at the same time, with one less person in the picture, Lear would get a bigger slice of the cake.

Lear was in a good mood after getting rid of one competitor. Next, he would have to deal with Shen Fei!

…

“It’s almost time for you to prepare for the gift-giving.”

Aloy quietly tugged on Shen Fei’s clothes and pointed at the crowd that was approaching Lear.

“They’ve probably started already. We have to catch up.”

“Alright,” Shen Fei said.

He smoothly took out the present from his pocket and brought Aloy towards the place where everyone was gathered.

As soon as they got close, they saw that Young Master Zhang was all smiles. He was holding a small pure black gift box in his hand, and he was flattering Lear.

“Mr. Lear, I heard that your birthday is coming soon. I have prepared a sumptuous gift for you. I hope that you reach higher level of strength as soon as possible.”

The gift box in Zhang Youcheng’s hand was only the size of a ring box.

The moment he saw the small box, Young Master Li, who had always been at odds with the Zhang family, could not help but laugh. The Zhang family had such a huge business, yet they were only willing to give such a small gift?

Looking at the small gift in the other party’s hand, Young Master Li could not help but shake his head. He was secretly pleased.

‘He’s only willing to give such a small present. Is the Zhang family going out of business?’

“What’s wrong?” Young Master Zhang looked at the people beside him with disdain. “Why do you two keep hiding behind me and laughing?”

“Young Master Zhang, it could be that they’re just happy for me. Regardless, I’ll thank you for your gift first.” Lear smiled and quickly reached out to receive the congratulatory gift from Young Master Zhang.

‘The young masters of the Zhang and Li families are at it again. So stupid.’ Lear looked at the other two young masters with contempt. ‘One has eyes, but fails to see. The other was like a nouveau riche.’

When Young Master Zhang brought the box to him, he could already see how precious it was. The exterior of the box was covered with a layer of the rarest silk! Just with that thin layer of silk on the outside, the value of this box alone had already exceeded five million. Naturally, the item in the box was not ordinary either.

“Young Master Zhang, I wonder if I can open it?”

Young Master Zhang nodded his head and said to Lear, “Of course, please.”

Lear’s provocative gaze inadvertently swept across the other young masters, which made them even more infuriated.

Young Master Li curled his lips in disdain. He wanted to see what this Young Master Zhang could give him!

Lear reached out and opened the small box. As soon as he opened it, a powerful wave of light poured out of the box!

Lear took a closer look. A pale yellow crystal lay quietly in the middle of the box. The moment they saw the crystal, everyone’s eyes were glued to it.

He carefully picked up the pale yellow crystal and placed it under the light. He extended his finger and flicked it gently.

Ding…

An almost undetectable sound came from the crystal. The entire crystal buzzed and trembled. Lear was overjoyed and quickly hung the yellow crystal around his neck.

“Thank you for the guardian crystal, Young Master Zhang.”

The people who were laughing at Young Master Zhang just now had a dark expression on their faces. Even the way they held their own gift boxes became awkward.

“The Zhang family has put in a lot of money to give this gift. This thing, when it appeared on the black market more than a decade ago, was worth nearly 80,000,000 Yuan each. By now, it should be over a hundred million.”

“That small piece of crystal is that valuable?” Shen Fei looked at the fingernail-sized crystal in disbelief.

Aloy whispered in Shen Fei’s ear, “That’s because the guardian crystal can create an all-encompassing shield for the Beastmaster and spirit beast for a period of time during an attack. All attacks would be ineffective until the shield disappears.

Shen Fei was slightly stunned. ‘Isn’t this similar to an invincibility hack?’

“It is indeed a good item.” Aloy nodded. “However, even though it’s good, the production is extremely low. Up till now, we don’t know more than ten people who have this crystal.”

Aloy looked at Young Master Zhang in confusion. And from what she knew… the mine that was used to mine the guardian crystals had long collapsed due to an accident.

Where did the Zhang family get that guardian crystal?

“Thank you, I really like your gift.” Lear touched his chest with satisfaction, feeling the guardian crystal’s energy there.

He had been looking for a guardian crystal for a long time, but for some reason, he had not been able to find it. He did not expect that it would come to him today.

As expected of the most reliable ally. Lear looked at Young Master Zhang with some admiration in his eyes.

Seeing that Young Master Zhang was done giving his gift, Young Master Li quickly took his gift and walked up to Lear.

“I prepared this for you. You’ll definitely need this.”

“Then, I thank Young Master Li.” Lear smiled and reached out to take the gift box from the young man.

As soon as he received the gift box, Lear’s entire body trembled. It was as if there was something in the gift box that was resonating with him.

‘What is this gift from the Li family?’

Lear used a little more strength and quickly tore open the gift that Young Master Li had presented. The moment he tore off the packaging…

Half of a golden cultivation manual was brought out before everyone’s eyes. The smile on Lear’s face brightened.

“I really must thank Young Master Li for being so considerate, to actually gift me such a wonderful item!” Lear happily picked up the half-complete ancient book.

He recognized it the moment he saw it. This was the remaining half of the special technique that he had been trying to cultivate!

‘I couldn’t find it after so many years, but I didn’t expect it to be made up for by Young Master Li. This birthday party is really a fruitful one.’

Young Master Li smiled. So what if Young Master Zhang gave Lear a guardian crystal? Even the most powerful shield produced by the guardian crystal could only last half an hour. It was completely not as ingenious as Li Yuan’s way of adapting to Lear’s preferences!

“I heard that you were cultivating a special technique, and it was incomplete, so I spent a little time tracking it down and went to the market to collect the remaining pages for it. I hope you’ll be satisfied.”

“I’m satisfied! Of course, I’m satisfied!” Lear was overjoyed as he kept the gift in his arms.

One had to know that when one cultivated an incomplete technique, every time one inhaled and exhaled, one’s body would feel as if it was being cut by a knife. But with this, he did not have to worry anymore!

He looked at the gifts from the first two young masters.

Young Master Luo suddenly hesitated as he held his gift box. This time, their family had only prepared an ordinary piece of valuable jewelry. If he had been the first one to present his gift, it would have been fine, but at this point, Luo Jin’s gift could not even hold a candle to the others’.

When he thought of this, Luo Jin’s gaze subconsciously turned toward Shen Fei who was behind him.

The Shen family had always been poor anyway. If Shen Fei went first and presented his cheap gift, Luo Jin would definitely not lose face too terribly.

Luo Jin’s eyes rolled.

‘Why don’t… I let him go first?’
