Chapter 73 You said you went blind again?
At 2 a.m., this time has almost become Yu Xunge's biological clock. Even when she doesn't stay up late, she still wakes up once at 2 a.m.
Using his disguise skill to become a goblin, he crafted three gold coins for the day, then put on gloves and used the Illusion Spell to teleport to the apartment. He first activated [Hunter's Eye] to check if there were any ambushes nearby, and only after confirming that did he go to the next room and knock Ye Dong unconscious. On his way through the living room, he also checked the figurine.
Great, the arm is gone, the scalp is gone, but it still looks better this way.
Upon entering Lin Chengze's room, she also made him faint. Then, she took out a dagger, pried open the eyelid containing the demonic eye, and with a single thrust and pry, gouged out a complete eyeball. The immense pain and injury interrupted the effect of fainting, and Lin Chengze reflexively covered his eye and screamed. At this moment, Yu Xunge had already taken the demonic eye and teleported away.
First, he went to the beach and gave himself a thorough cleaning, then put the magic eye into the magician's dentures before Apparating back home.
...
"What? He's gone blind again?!"
At noon on the 21st, Yu Xunge received a call from Yu Qingshan.
This phone call was clearly not for gossip, but to ask if she had any good things she wanted to borrow to apologize to the Lin family.
Yu Xunge feigned a laugh of anger on the phone: "Have they ever considered who the Lin family might have offended? Why is it always Xunhuan's fault when something goes wrong?! Isn't it enough that our family lost an A-grade item? Do they even know how much an A-grade item is worth?"
Considering that Yu Xunhuan might be listening nearby, she deliberately spoke louder than usual, as if she was so angry that she had lost her composure, and her voice also revealed a hint of grievance and heartache.
Yu Xunge thought that if he participated in an acting competition, he would definitely get a high score from the mentors. Although he had retired from the entertainment industry after his rebirth, he still practiced his acting skills every now and then.
After feeling aggrieved on behalf of Yu Xunhuan, Yu Xunge finally got down to business. Instead of just complaining without doing anything, she said seriously, "I have already signed a contract with the Special Affairs Bureau. Forget about my divinely bestowed talent... I can only help you find some inside connections, such as buying equipment or potions. The Lin family will pay for it themselves, and they will only accept gold. This is the limit of what I can do."
After hanging up the phone, Yu Xunhuan, who had been listening in, breathed a sigh of relief and felt grateful to Yu Xunge. He looked at the Lin family on the other end of the line and his attitude hardened: "What my sister said is the attitude of the Yu family. Do you want to investigate whether you have offended anyone? You have seen the attributes of that demon eye. I would offer it for hundreds of millions on the market and someone would buy it. Let alone hundreds of millions, if you could spend 500 million to buy an A-grade item that can rewind time and read minds, I would do anything for you. I have already done more than enough in this matter."
Although the Lin family members still looked furious, they were actually putting on an act. They were also wondering if Lin Chengze had really offended someone.
Otherwise, why is everyone else fine except for Lin Chengze? ×
Of course, it's also possible that they're after the Mystic Eyes...
But no matter how you look at it, you can't blame Yu Xunhuan. He went back to the Su family last night, and they used the Lin family's access to check the surveillance footage this morning. Yu Xunhuan left the apartment and never came back. This was clearly the work of the players.
They couldn't help but regret not being more forceful in making Lin Chengze go home...
The matter was simply dropped.
Although Yu Xunhuan did not offer compensation, he promised that if Lin Chengze could obtain eye-like items in the game again, he would definitely help him get them so that Lin Chengze could see again. During this time, Lin Chengze would stay in his apartment, and he would send someone to take care of him.
Through a combination of persuasion and coercion, the Lin family seemingly reluctantly agreed to a reconciliation, but in reality, they secretly admired Yu Xunhuan's kindness.
But while the Lin family managed to calm things down, the Su family started making a scene.
Su Yitong is very controlling. Although she didn't put people directly by Yu Xunhuan's side, someone would report Yu Xunhuan's whereabouts to her every few days. It wasn't about how much he did every day, but she needed to know his general movements. Whether it was opening a studio or making friends, Su Yitong thought they were just minor things. But what was the report this week?
Yu Xunhuan offended the Lin family but then reconciled with them. Su Yitong didn't care about such a trivial matter; what she cared about was that A-level demonic eye.
Such a good thing! You should give it to the Su family!
Su Yitong had never sworn before, but at this moment she blurted out "Holy shit!" without any instruction.
It can see what a person has been doing recently, and it can even read minds! Even if you offend the Liang family, the Su family can take care of things for you!
"Do you even know how much benefit an item with this kind of skill could bring us? You could have kept it for yourself! And all you did was use it to appease the Lin family? What kind of family is the Lin family that you'd have to apologize to? Even if you offended the Liang family, if you handed the Demon Eye over to our Su family, we would not only protect you, but also give you anything you want!"
"And what business is it of yours that the guy surnamed Lin had his eyes gouged out? Maybe they just offended someone somewhere. Even Yu Xunge knows that, yet you're still apologizing to them!"
"And your sister! Why didn't you say so last time that there were channels to buy this kind of equipment?"
Su Yitong became increasingly angry as she spoke, and she didn't mind revealing that she had sent people to investigate the whole matter.
Yu Xunhuan sat on the sofa, propping his head up with his hand, staring at the floor and silently listening to Su Yitong's rare outburst of curses.
Su Baige, who had been watching Yu Xunhuan with a cold face, waited until Su Yitong finally got tired of cursing before saying to Yu Xunhuan, "You don't trust our Su family."
This was a statement that left Yu Xunhuan no room for rebuttal.
Yu Xunhuan didn't even think of refuting him. He sighed, closed his eyes, and leaned back on the sofa, his voice filled with exhaustion: "Have you ever included me in your core meetings related to the game? Even after I helped you buy nearly a thousand pieces of equipment, you still excluded me from important matters. How can you expect me to trust you like this?"
Su Yitong and Su Baige both fell silent. It was the truth, and no matter how shameless they were, they couldn't refute it.
In their eyes, Yu Xunhuan was indeed an outsider. Coupled with his god-given talent that was practically useless, Yu Xunhuan was only lucky enough to be of good quality. This was why they let Yu Xunhuan develop on his own, without investing too much in his training. But who knows, there might be some surprises in the future.
To everyone's surprise, the person was indeed lucky to obtain such a powerful A-grade item, but was also shocked that the item was given to someone else in the blink of an eye.
However, this incident also made Su Yitong realize something: Yu Xunhuan was indeed generous to those he trusted.
Anyway, she didn't think she could give the Demon Eye to her subordinates.
From this perspective, Yu Xunhuan can be considered to be loyal and righteous.
