9: Chapter 9 Am I also a lucky person?

But considering Mu Cheng had an ability... a divine artifact or something wasn't strange at all.

Lu Yuxuan was still very sensible... she originally thought of handing the black hole heavy sword over to Mu Cheng.

However, she was stopped by him. "You keep it!"

Mu Cheng's memories of his past life were very clear; divine artifacts weren't ordinary, they were just sealed.

Once the seal was undone... they could even tear through space!

He also clearly remembered that Lu Yuxuan didn't even have a divine artifact in her past life... yet she was already able to use the strength of a sixth-order bloodline.

By challenging seventh-order strength across levels, she became famous in that one battle and became one of the Ten Great Experts.

Now that she had the death heavy sword... for her Death Bloodline, it was like adding wings to a tiger!

Thinking of this, he also began to worry. He clearly said it was just an investment? Could Lu Yuxuan be a ticking time bomb?

His heart began to fall into conflict again...

What on earth... is wrong with me again? I completely can't believe I would say something like that just now.

At this moment, he also thought of taking action to get rid of Lu Yuxuan... but his body wouldn't listen to him, completely unable to let him make that move.

Hmm? Why can't I do it? What's the situation?

Until now... Mu Cheng finally believed he was being influenced by the bloodline...

And from this moment on... he, who was ruthless and heartless in his past life, underwent a complete change!

“Brother Cheng, there's nothing left in the treasure chest. How about I awaken my bloodline first?”

Lu Yuxuan wanted to search more... but unfortunately there was nothing left, so she had to seek Mu Cheng's advice first.

“Awakening a bloodline takes quite a bit of time. Don't you still have a few good sisters? Do you have the heart to make them wait?”

Mu Cheng blurted it out subconsciously.

???... Suddenly reacting, he could hardly believe he would say such a thing.

“Forget it, forget it... living like a ghost, neither human nor monster like in my past life—making a change is also quite good.”

Mu Cheng didn't think too much about it, turned around, and walked down from the rooftop of the experimental building.

This... Brother Cheng agreed to take them in? I didn't mishear, right? I really didn't mishear?

Even Lu Yuxuan was very doubtful...

She also understood very well in her heart... that the reason Mu Cheng would take her in was more of an investment.

Even knowing that, so what? In the beginning, she only wanted to survive, to be able to return to Dongfang City sooner.

To be able to see her family again...

That's why she made such a decision, but the result? She found herself hopelessly and completely in love with this man!

Mu Cheng heard many more strange inner voices.

Hmm? This little girl... has she really fallen in love with me? I'm a bit curious... the her from back then.

Was it just to see her family? I'm afraid it's not that simple at all, right?

“Whatever, being loved is quite nice.” Mu Cheng actually couldn't make a change, so he could only silently accept this reality.

Soon the two of them arrived at the first floor, and Mu Cheng didn't waste any words, walking directly toward the Trader.

“I'll leave the zombies to you to handle, I'm going inside for a bit!”

After saying that... Mu Cheng entered the Trader Space.

Hmm? Why did Brother Cheng suddenly disappear? Lu Yuxuan was instantly bewildered.

But her first reaction was to operate her bracelet, and she soon found information regarding the Trader.

“So it's a Trader... I should handle the zombies first.” Just as Lu Yuxuan was about to search for strange crystals.

Suddenly, a familiar voice came. “Sister Yuxuan... is it really you?”

The one calling out was Tao Mumu, and beside her were Gu Na and Tao Shuishui...

“You guys... look too pathetic!” Lu Yuxuan's first words weren't concern, but ridicule.

As expected, women's friendships are so real; besides mocking each other, the rest is still mocking each other.

“Holy crap!!! I say, Yu Xuan... can't you be a bit more serious? We've become like this, can't you show some concern?”

Gu Na started to throw a tantrum.

“Exactly, Sister Yuxuan, now that you've latched onto someone's thigh... have you forgotten us brothers and sisters?” Tao Shuishui also had a long face.

She weakly added, “By the way... Sister Yuxuan, where did he go? Wasn't he with you?”

“He was clearly here just now... how did he suddenly disappear?” Tao Mumu also asked curiously.

Gu Na was worthy of being a future member of the Ten Great Experts; she had already seen everything.

“If I'm not guessing wrong... it should be that man in black robes, right!”

“Mm-hmm, he's called a Trader... as the name implies, he's used for trading.” Lu Yuxuan simply explained.

Gu Na understood in a second. “Understood, understood. I want to discuss things with him... to see if he can give us a hand, just like he helped you, even if he wants us to do anything.”

Having said this, it was obvious she had recognized reality; the world now was no longer the world of the past.

Even if she was a bit stronger, she was still just one person... to want to lead a group of people to survive was simply impossible!

Of course, the decision she made... was also after careful consideration!

Using the beauty she possessed as capital... it would be the same no matter who she went to, which was also the question she had been thinking about from the beginning until now.

Until today... seeing Lu Yuxuan become so strong, she finally made up her mind to talk to Mu Cheng!

“You... what are you guys thinking? Brother Cheng is mine, I'm telling you, you better not mess around.” Lu Yuxuan obviously heard it, so she started joking.

“Is that so? Brother Cheng is yours? Let me tell you, that's not necessarily true... besides, am I worse than you? I'm not worse at all, okay? The things you can do, I can naturally do too.”

Gu Na was also a drama queen... as she spoke, she suddenly started teasing Lu Yuxuan.

“Yeah, I can do it too, and my sister can too.” Tao Shuishui also joined in the fun.

Tao Mumu took it seriously.

“I admit he's indeed quite handsome, but you guys... how can you be like this? And Sister Na... what did you understand just now? Why don't I understand anything?”

“Alright, I'm not joking with you guys... Sister Na, you just said you wanted to discuss things with Brother Cheng, there couldn't be others, right?” Lu Yuxuan suddenly said very seriously.

“Holy crap!!! I'm ignoring you guys.” As soon as Tao Mumu heard this, she immediately threw a small tantrum and interrupted.

Tao Shuishui suddenly offered an explanation. “My dear sister... isn't your brain usually quite smart? You can't even see this much? What Sister Na understood... is naturally related to Sister Yuxuan's extreme strength.”

“Stop, stop, stop, I'm talking to Sister Na... can you guys stop talking!” Lu Yuxuan was suddenly quite angry.

Gu Na also spoke coldly. “Shuishui... be quiet, this isn't a joke. If the talk fails, we might all die.”

As soon as these words came out... how could Tao Mumu and Tao Shuishui dare to speak?

Over these past few days, if it wasn't for Gu Na, they probably would have died who knows how many times already.

“Brother Cheng probably wouldn't have... helped before, now I can't be sure... but there's still hope.”

Lu Yuxuan had also seen Mu Cheng's change, from being for the purpose of investment at the beginning to caring about her now!

But a man's heart is as deep as the sea; although it was certain that Mu Cheng had changed, it wasn't certain that he would help.

“Fine! I'll wait for him to come out before talking.” Gu Na didn't ask anything more; even if there was only a sliver of hope, she wouldn't give up.

“Get to work, get to work. You guys probably don't know yet that there are good things on the zombies, right?” Lu Yuxuan didn't waste any time either.

Taking out the black gold dagger... she began to dig into the zombies' heads.

“Sister Yuxuan... this is too disgusting!” Tao Mumu almost gagged and quickly turned her head away.

But Tao Shuishui asked very curiously, “Sister Yuxuan... what are you doing?”

“Finding good things, of course.”

After Lu Yuxuan dug a hole, she directly reached her hand in to search...

Sure enough, as the Goddess of Luck, she got it in one shot, digging out a grey crystal!

“What... is this thing? Could it be related to becoming stronger?” Gu Na snatched the grey crystal to study it and asked.

It was very obvious... she wasn't afraid at all.

“Mm-hmm, let's dig together!” Lu Yuxuan nodded... and continued digging.

“I'll try too.” Gu Na didn't care too much; after returning the grey crystal to Lu Yuxuan, she directly used her hands to pry open a zombie's head.

Searching for the grey crystal inside from the bottom... except her luck was a bit bad; she searched for a long time without a single piece coming out.

“I say, Yu Xuan... where is there something like what you had?” Finally, Gu Na finished breaking the whole head and asked.

“Hmm? Aren't these strange crystals in every zombie?” Lu Yuxuan asked, looking quite surprised.

Gu Na expressed her helplessness. “Probably not!”

“Look, I found another one.” Lu Yuxuan obviously didn't believe in such bad luck, and sure enough, she dug one out.

“You guys are too disgusting!” Tao Mumu obviously... still couldn't accept it.

But Tao Shuishui had already started without a word... beginning to dig into the zombies' heads.

She found one in one shot!

“I dug one out. Can this thing... really make you stronger?” A little excited, she returned to Lu Yuxuan's side and asked.

Lu Yuxuan nodded. “Mm-hmm, but you need ten of them to be about the same as me!”

Obviously, she felt guilty when she said this... of course it was impossible to be about the same; on the contrary, there would be a huge difference.

She had drunk the second-order modification potion, so naturally it couldn't be compared to ten grey crystals which were equivalent to a first-order modification potion.

“I don't believe it, keep digging.” Fortunately, Gu Na's luck turned around, and she dug out a grey crystal on her second try.

Just like that, the three of them continued digging... the people outside were also very shocked as they watched.

Are girls these days all so fierce? Those are zombies, even if they're dead, they're still quite scary...

And they have the courage to dig with their hands?

Some people obviously left out of fear, while others were quite curious... observing what they were actually doing.

“Don't mind the people outside... let's keep digging!”

Lu Yuxuan saw that Gu Na and Tao Shuishui were distracted and suddenly said a few words.

“Mm-hmm, I say Mumu, why don't you try too... this thing can make you stronger.” Gu Na continued digging and didn't forget to call Tao Mumu.

Tao Mumu could be considered someone who had seen big storms, she just couldn't accept it for a moment...

But soon she also plucked up her courage... and started digging along with them.

Obviously she was quite nervous the first time... although she couldn't find a grey crystal, once a stranger, twice an acquaintance.

Soon she wasn't so afraid; originally there was no blood on her body, but now it had directly become pitch black and filthy.

Inside the Trader Space, as soon as Mu Cheng clicked on the page for selling items... he was instantly shocked.

third-order modification potion * 10

third-order ability potion * 10

fourth-order detoxification potion * 10

...All the ability awakening cards appeared neatly, plus a bloodline awakening card.

And the prices were all two grey crystals.

What's the situation here? Could it be that I'm also possessed by a Lucky King? Has the protagonist halo returned?
