Chapter 60: Chapter 60: The Rich Woman Whose Money Compensates for Her Clumsiness

"Done! Let’s call it a day!"

Looking at her level, which had already risen to Lv14, and her experience bar, which was nearly halfway to Lv15, Ji Xiaoyu couldn’t help but cheer.

If all the Wind-Split Wolves in the vicinity hadn’t been wiped out, she wouldn’t have even wanted to leave.

Yu Zhun sat up from the ground and sniffed himself.

The scent of the Demon Luring Powder had completely dissipated.

He looked around the empty valley, a confused expression on his face. "It seemed like a squad was watching us from a distance earlier?"

"I noticed that too," Ji Xiaoyu nodded. "They stared at us for a while, then left."

"Let’s ignore them, then." Yu Zhun looked at her, pondering for a moment before speaking up. "How far are you from Lv15?"

"About ten thousand experience points."

"About ten thousand..." Yu Zhun mused. "It would be best if you reached Lv15 before we enter Under the Dragon Burial City tomorrow.

"With your talent, equipping a Lv15 epic weapon will definitely result in a massive leap in damage. After all, it’s a Dungeon we’ve never entered before. Even though we have a rough guide on hand, it never hurts to be careful.

"If Bloody City is scheduled before Under the Dragon Burial City tomorrow, I’ll allocate more experience to you so you can level up directly.

"If Under the Dragon Burial City comes first, we’ll get there early and farm a wave of wild monsters beforehand."

"Thank you, Guild Master!" Ji Xiaoyu looked at Yu Zhun with a bright smile.

She was thrilled that the Guild Master had finally recognized her value.

"By the way, have you Enhanced your Equipment?" Yu Zhun suddenly thought to ask. "If not, I can..."

"It’s already Enhanced!" Ji Xiaoyu nodded rapidly. "My Armor and accessories are all Enhanced to +10."

The Armor and accessories Ji Xiaoyu had prepared for herself were all Master Level. Normally, +10 was the limit for Enhancing Master Level Equipment.

It wasn’t impossible to push the Enhancement further, but the cost of getting it to +10 was roughly equivalent to the value of a Master Level piece of Equipment itself.

Going any higher required the Three Divine Talismans, and the cost of a single Enhancement attempt would be enough to buy several Master Level items. It simply wasn’t worth it.

Even a wealthy girl like Ji Xiaoyu had no intention of pushing the Enhancement further. After all, Purple Equipment would become obsolete for her in just five levels.

"What about your weapon?" Yu Zhun asked, a bit curious.

"+20."

Yu Zhun was left speechless.

Seeing Yu Zhun’s dumbfounded expression, Ji Xiaoyu pursed her lips, feeling a little smug inwardly.

She hadn’t maxed out the Enhancement on her epic Magic Staff right from the start. When she joined the Godslayer guild, it hadn’t been Enhanced at all.

However, seeing that Yu Zhun, who was the same age as her, also had a Red Weapon, her competitive spirit flared. The moment she got home, she begged her grandfather to Enhance it for her.

Ji Ruoxu’s Life Profession was an Enhancer.

Specifically, an Enhancer who had reached the Life Profession level cap of Lv50.

With him taking action, the Enhancements were naturally effortless.

Of course, the little rich girl didn’t get this for free.

She had cooked a meal for her dear grandfather with her own two hands.

"Very well." Taking a deep breath, Yu Zhun barely managed to calm himself down. He suddenly felt that it was even more imperative to help this wealthy patron reach Lv15 before entering Under the Dragon Burial City.

Equipped with a Lv15 +20 epic weapon and coupled with the explosive Output Talent, Arcane Requiem, her damage output might not actually be inferior to his own.

At least, that would be the case when dealing with normal mobs.

Even though she lacked natural talent, she had the power of money.

What was this called?

This was called letting wealth make up for a lack of talent!

"Now there’s only one last thing left." Yu Zhun looked at Ji Xiaoyu and took out a Skill Book he had specifically saved from his inventory. "Learn this skill. It will be useful for Under the Dragon Burial City tomorrow."

Ji Xiaoyu looked at the Skill Book, revealing a surprised expression.

"This is..."

The next morning.

"Yu Zhun, I’m heading back to our new home at noon!"

Yu Zhu, carrying her schoolbag on her back, had a face full of anticipation.

In the past, the distance from home to school was a bit far, so she always ate lunch at the school cafeteria to avoid the hassle of commuting back and forth.

She had complained more than once that the cafeteria food was awful, and the lunch lady’s hands shook as if she had Parkinson’s.

The new home was much closer to her school, which meant Yu Zhu could come home and have lunch with Yu Zhun from now on.

"Don’t worry," Yu Zhun assured her. He glanced at the large and small bags they had packed last night. "By the time you get back at noon, the new place should already be set up."

Yu Zhu smiled at his words. She waved her hand and jogged toward the bus stop. The road that used to feel too far now actually felt a little short.

After all, this was probably the last time she would walk this route to school.

As soon as Yu Zhu left, Yu Zhun immediately began loading the luggage without stopping to rest.

At midnight, today’s Dungeon schedule had been released.

Just as he expected, the Godslayer guild’s two Dungeons were scheduled for the afternoon. What satisfied him even more was that Bloody City was slated to go first.

This way, he wouldn’t need to take the rich girl out to farm wild monsters in advance. He could simply allocate more experience to her during their speedrun of Bloody City, allowing her to smoothly reach Lv15.

For the move, Yu Zhun had temporarily rented a small semi-trailer. HUFF, PUFF! He hauled the luggage outside, carrying stacks of heavy bags nearly three meters high from the fifth floor straight to the apartment complex gates in a single breath before loading them onto the truck bed.

After all, as a Lv19 Divine Revelation player, his physical constitution in the real world had been enhanced to the level of a mini-superman.

If the Divine Revelation Hall hadn’t issued a series of laws restricting Divine Revelation players from using their powers in reality decades ago, the roughly three percent of the Blue Star’s population who were players acting recklessly would have been more than enough to plunge the entire planet into chaos.

In just two or three trips, Yu Zhun moved all their belongings. He returned the keys to the landlord and drove straight to their new home in Shengshi First-class.

By the time Yu Zhu returned from school at noon, the mouthwatering aroma of hot food was already wafting from the new kitchen.

"WOW!" Yu Zhu looked like a kid in a candy store, peeking here and there. Only after inspecting every single room did she finally sit down at the dining table, still riding high on excitement, chattering away as she ate.

"Yu Zhun, I want the room on the right upstairs! It’s more than three times bigger than my old room!

"We need to plant all kinds of flowers in the garden. It’s empty right now, which doesn’t look very nice.

"It would be best to plant a tree! An apple tree would be great, so we can pick apples in the autumn."

"I checked with property management. You can’t just plant trees here randomly," Yu Zhun said. He picked up a chopstick-full of stir-fried pork with peppers, shoved it into his mouth, and followed it with a bite of rice. "But I saw the neighbors planted strawberries."

"Strawberries are delicious too! Let’s plant those!" Yu Zhu’s eyes lit up, but a split second later, her face twisted into a fierce scowl.

"Yu! Zhun!

"You stir-fried shredded ginger with the shredded potatoes again!!!"

"This is for the sake of your health," Yu Zhun stated righteously. "Yu Zhuzhu, reading too much is bad for your eyes. This is good training for your vision."

"AHHHH! I’m going to kill you!!!"
