บท 27: Chapter 27: Nangong Siyao: Old Nangong, Bring Out the Gold!
Meanwhile, a flamboyant figure avoided detection, patted Yi Luren on the shoulder, and effeminately said, "Brother, want to grab a drink?"
"Get lost!" Yi Luren snapped, turning to curse only to be hit with a scent from the figure's sleeve, causing him to pass out.
The figure grinned slyly, scanned the surroundings, and seeing no one, lifted Yi Luren and leaped out of the training camp, heading toward a dense forest.
In the dormitory apartment, the fruit girl transformed into her beast-eared form: Little Dragon Girl.
Amidst her grand presence was a delicate, fair face with two small round horns on her head.
Nangong Siyao pouted, dissatisfied, "Xiao Ye! Why can you kiss Sister Bingxi and spend the night with her, but not with me?"
Holding the beast-eared Nangong Siyao, Xiao Ye thought: A week ago, you hugged my wife; a week later, I hug you!
Fair trade!
"Do you really want it?" Xiao Ye asked, his deep eyes locking onto hers.
Little Dragon Girl Nangong Siyao blushed, replying, "Of course!"
She was envious! Her contract with Xiao Ye was just in name!
Xiao Ye pondered, then said, "Ninth rank! Once we upgrade both summoned beasts to ninth rank, I can address your template's issues!"
Fox-eared Cheng Bingxi counted their resources, her melodious voice announcing:
"We currently have: sixteen eighth-rank cores, twenty-two seventh-rank cores, forty-sixth-rank cores, over fifty fifth-rank cores, and over a hundred fourth-rank cores!"
"In total: one ninth-rank core, eight eighth-rank cores, six seventh-rank cores!"
Nangong Siyao's eyes curved into crescents with joy, "Let's start training! Isn't that enough?"
Xiao Ye shook his head, "Not enough!"
"Our summoned beasts are at the early seventh rank."
"We need four ninth-rank cores and four eighth-rank cores to elevate both beasts to the ninth rank!"
"We're short three ninth-rank cores."
"What?" Nangong Siyao's cheerful face fell. Her allowance was thirty seventh-rank cores a month—not enough.
Cheng Bingxi's eyes brightened with an idea, "Let's reach the eighth rank and then hunt ninth-rank beasts!"
Xiao Ye nodded, liking the plan, but Nangong Siyao interrupted:
"No! That's too troublesome! It takes too long back and forth!"
She exclaimed, "Time for Old Nangong to bring out the gold!"
Xiao Ye and Cheng Bingxi were speechless.
Nangong Siyao jumped twice, causing a commotion and exclaimed:
"Old Nangong is really something, not even acknowledging my contract. He must bring out the big gold!"
Under Xiao Ye's incredulous gaze, Nangong Siyao started a video call with the city lord.
A virtual screen popped up, displaying the city lord.
"Yaoyao, I heard you joined the Leopard Hunting Team. Are you happy?" The weathered face of the city lord smiled.
Nangong Siyao pouted, her mouth wide enough to hang a watermelon, "Not happy!"
The city lord's face darkened, his eyes sharp, "Who upset you? Tell me, and I'll deal with them!"
The dragon-eared Nangong Siyao kept her expression, looking troubled, angering the city lord, "Tell me, who is it? I promise to make them regret it!"
"Is it Xiao Ye?" the city lord guessed.
Xiao Ye's mouth twitched—what did it have to do with him?
Nangong Siyao shook her head, "No, it's Nangong Siyao's dad!"
"Alright! Nangong Siyao's dad, I'll go... uh!" The city lord rolled up his sleeves, ready to summon guards, but froze, realizing Nangong Siyao's dad was himself.
When did I upset my daughter? I didn't even stop her contract!
A bead of sweat formed on the city lord's forehead as he cautiously asked, "How did Nangong Siyao's dad upset you? Tell me, and I'll make him apologize!"
Nangong Siyao was his only child, spoiled by him and his wife, with an allowance of thirty seventh-rank cores a month.
Nangong Siyao's face showed triumph, declaring, "I've reached the seventh rank! My allowance isn't enough!"
With a roar, an aura burst from the dragon-eared Nangong Siyao, causing the air to ripple.
"Whoa, seventh rank?" Nangong Qitao's eyes widened, standing up with shock, "Just two days and you've reached the seventh rank?"
Little Dragon Girl Nangong Siyao tilted her chin proudly, "As real as it gets!"
"Good, very good!" Nangong Qitao clapped excitedly.
Nangong Siyao raised her hand, rubbing thumb and forefinger together—she wanted cores!
"Hahaha!" Nangong Qitao laughed, "I'll give you access to the city lord's resource vault. Take whatever you need!"
"Really? That's great!" Dragon-eared Nangong Siyao grinned, delighted.
She kissed Xiao Ye, then dashed out, "Wait an hour, and we'll have enough cores!"
Xiao Ye touched his face, watching her leave, muttering, "Daring to steal a kiss, you wicked rich girl!"
"Luckily, you're mine!"
"Hmph, after ninth rank, I'll punish you properly!"
Nangong Siyao reverted to human form, drove back to the city lord's mansion, and smoothly entered the resource vault.
Inside were neatly arranged boxes of resources.
Core area, potion area, weapon area, rare treasure area.
Nangong Siyao headed to the potion area, retrieving twenty bottles of blue potion labeled "Ninth-Rank Energy Liquid" into her backpack.
Then, from a box labeled "Eighth-Rank Energy Liquid," she took twenty more bottles.
Seeing the boxes half-empty, the fruit girl with OCD moved half of the eighth-rank box into the ninth-rank one, then closed the boxes.
Satisfied, Nangong Siyao left, unaware that the "Ninth-Rank Energy Liquid" box also bore a "Emergency War Supply" label on the side.
Half an hour later, back at the dormitory.
"Five bottles of eighth-rank energy liquid equal one eighth-rank core! The potions in the backpack equal four ninth-rank and four eighth-rank cores!"
"And energy liquid is refined, needing no further processing, so we'll level up much faster!"
Xiao Ye, Nangong Siyao, and Cheng Bingxi immediately activated their contract powers.
With a mystical aura manifesting, two summoned beasts appeared in the spacious living room.
A three-toed golden dragon hovered in mid-air.
A two-tailed Sacred White Fox sat on the sofa.
As they trained, consuming bottle after bottle of blue potion, their ranks soared.
Early seventh rank - mid seventh rank - late seventh rank - eighth rank!
Their powers doubled again, energy surging like ocean waves.
Mid eighth rank - late eighth rank - ninth rank!
Ninth rank achieved!
