There was a scene that was probably the most stunning of the party. Water Fairy, Wendelian, Immortal, Angel, JiuFeng, Not an Elementary Student, Dancing Flower Beauty, Northern Tang Dream, Mini Meow… the room was filled with beautiful women.
Even Lu Li, as the face of Ruling Sword, couldn’t have successfully invited all of these beautiful women. Water Fairy had helped him send out the invitations.
Although each one would fight in the game, after leaving the arena, the friendship between these girls was actually quite strong. As for the Beauty rankings, this just wasn’t something that the girls cared about.

Lu Li is coming,
Not an Elementary Student said as she raised her chin.
Water Fairy had her back turned to Lu Li. When it was mentioned that Lu Li was coming, everyone seemed to turn to look at her for some reason.



Excuse me, I need to talk to Water Fairy for a moment.

Lu Li felt nervous. It was difficult for an ordinary person like him to approach so many beautiful women in one place. He struggled to even say that he needed to speak to Water Fairy, but still managed to looked somewhat calm.

Let’s talk over there.

Water Fairy also felt rather awkward as she was being stared at by all her friends.
All he had to do was send a message; why did he have walk over?
There was a small stone table, which had just been left by the previous guests. Lu Li and Water Fairy were sitting opposite each other. Their lips were moving but there wasn’t any sound coming out of them for anyone trying to listen as they were speaking into a private chat.

I wanted to thank you for helping me with the invitations,
Lu Li said.
If you invited all these people in the name of Ruling Sword, some of them might not have turned up. Even if they did decide to come, they might have just sent some insignificant representatives. With Water Fairy, it wasn’t the same. They had to respect Water Fairy, especially the many other beautiful women that were invited.
Beauty was sometimes more important than equipment and achievements when it came to winning someone over.

You’re welcome, and thank you for the store,
Water Fairy said sincerely.


In fact, this kind of personal relationship could occur between all people, but for it to work, there couldn’t be too large of a gap between them.
If Lu Li was still the same Lu Li who was struggling to make a living, what would he have in common with Water Fairy?
When he asked Water Fairy to borrow a sum of money for the construction of the Stronghold Wall, Lu Li quickly paid her back by giving her a few stores that were worth the same amount. Both sides made a deal and felt like they had gained something.
Lu Li took a moment to think but couldn’t find a good excuse. The person in front of him was Water Fairy – not some child who could be easily fooled.

I also wanted to tell you to not bid any items lower than level 60 at the auction.


I don’t understand what you mean.

Water Fairy naturally didn’t understand.
In addition to her plans to purchase two more shops, the most important thing for her was to acquire a batch of equipment so she could send more teams to farm the Molten Core Instance Dungeon. This kind of behaviour wasn’t unique to the local tycoons. As long as a group had the money, they could achieve it. This kind of investment would inevitably generate a return, which could then be translated into even better returns.
A majority of the player-base had not yet reached level 60, so most people wanted to buy level 55 equipment.

If you believe in me, then don’t buy them. Otherwise, you might lose some value. If you have a level 50 Epic or even a level 55 Epic, it is better to sell them now because the price is high. You can contact Three Bro. When we are sold out, we will sell your items.



Many clubs stocked low-level exquisite equipment, which was mainly used to quickly upgrade players who entered later into the game.

Of course I believe you,
Water Fairy assured, then asked in curiosity,
But why? Have you received some news in advance? Will the lower level equipment be weakened?

She was quite a smart woman who could immediately hazard a guess as to why low-grade equipment might lose some value.

Something like that. High-level players who wear low-level equipment will have their effects weakened. When that happens, the low-level exquisite equipment will lose its value,
Lu Li said, recovering from the surprised, then continued to explain,
We can sell the equipment now for a high price. After a while, when the price drops, we can buy them back.


You really have a business-geared mind,
Water Fairy commented.

In fact, you don’t need to buy too many shops,
Lu Li added. He didn’t know how much money Water Fairy had, but she seemed to be willing to spend a lot. Currently, the Grey Valley Stronghold was just a minor Stronghold, so if you invested too much here, there was no way to know if you could recover the cost.

I didn’t think that you would advise me to buy fewer shops,
Water Fairy said.
I have great confidence in Ruling Sword.


You don’t have to have confidence in Ruling Sword. Just have confidence in me,
Lu Li joked, to which Water Fairy laughed. Given that they were laughing, it seemed that they were no longer talking about anything important.
At this time, Square Root 3 was already on stage and had commenced the auctioning.

Mage T0.5 set – body, pants, belt, Bracers all at level 55. This should be appropriate for most mainstream Mages, and it will make them incredibly powerful. Starting at a gold coin!



T0.5 sets were basically equivalent to Dark Gold. In fact, they weren’t even worth mentioning to all the people present, but starting at a gold coin was a gimmick of its own.

1 gold coin! No one take it from me. Everyone can all pretend to be mute,
Unforgettable Maple said with a toothy smile.
To Square Root 3’s amazement, Unforgettable Maple seemed to be quite popular. After he = said that, no one else made another bid. This was a set of four Dark Gold items for a Mage. Surely it wouldn’t sell for a single gold coin.

1500 gold,
a cold voice sounded.

Surely that is too much, Water Sis. That is very suspicious; it seems like you are working with the house,
Unforgettable Maple howled.

Hehe, I assure you that no one in Ruling Sword has induced her to bid. Water Fairy is representing all of Drizzle Court’s bidding ability. Maple sister, would you like to continue?
Square Root 3 asked as he glanced at Water Fairy who was sitting with Lu Li. =

2000 gold. Water Sis, if you bid against me again, I will leak a video of you on a certain website,
Unforgettable Maple said wickedly.
Water Fairy snorted before staring at him without saying anything.
Even if she bid a little higher, Unforgettable Maple would continue. They had many Mages in their guild, so they couldn’t have too many Dark Gold Mage sets.
There was no one else bidding against him, so he took the four Dark Gold set items for 2000 gold coins.


This price was much lower than market value. If it was purchased in the market normally, the four pieces of equipment could reach up to 2,400 gold coins, which was equivalent to 70,000 dollars. Unforgettable Maple had completed quite a profitable transaction.
