Chapter 1071: Who is stealing skills from whom?


Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales


Suzu Treasure was startled, and then she replied with a smile, “I’m afraid that we’re incapable of such a task. It’s impossible for Garde 83’s branch shop to repair soul weapons. The soul weapons will have to be sent back to our headquarters for a Heavenly Treasure Firm’s Spiritualist to repair them. The


most I can do is remove our branch’s 15% commission.”


Suzu Treasure spoke with sincerity. Although she truly wanted to form a good relations.h.i.+p with Xia Fei, she did not have the ability to meddle with the prices fixed by headquarters. Moreover, this was the crucial test period for the newly appointed chairman of the Heavenly Treasure Firm’s board, and


Suzu Treasure could not gamble on her future career like this.


Xia Fei calmly said, “You don’t need to let headquarters know. Take the job and I will handle it.”


Suzu Treasure’s eyes erupted with light. She had been wondering the entire time if Xia Fei was a Spiritualist, and now, Xia Fei had proven without a shadow of doubt that he was one! Even if he turned out not to be a Spiritualist, he should at least have a major connection to one!


“Alright, it’s a deal,” Suzu Treasure said rather excitedly. As a woman, she did not lack any decisiveness when it came to business. She saw this as an opportunity!


No matter what reason Xia Fei had for wanting to help the Aurora Clan, if she took the job, Xia Fei would owe her a favor, and what more wonderful thing could there be than to have a Spiritualist owe one a favor?


Suzu Treasure felt her confidence soar. Xia Fei had come to find her personally, meaning that he did not find her too annoying. The sharp businesswoman in Suzu Treasure saw a little hope.


“Tonight, I’ll come to pick up the goods. I’l bring them back once they’re done,” said Xia Fei, putting out his cigarette.


“Understood. I’ll wait for you in the rear garden where we talked last time.” Suzu Treasure nodded.


Xia Fei rose and walked out of the side door to avoid running into Wistful Northgaze. As for Suzu Treasure, she hastily called Kira over and whispered a few orders to him.


Kira was more astonished the more he heard, his jaw gradually dropping.


“Remember: Starting today, the Aurora Clan is the most important customer of ours on Garde 83. There is no other,” Suzu Treasure said sternly, her brows gradually smoothening.


Everything was clear now. The Aurora Clan was being helped by a Spiritualist from the shadows, and so not only would it not perish, it had a high chance of rising! Even if she was not looking to show the Aurora Clan face, she needed to pay that mysterious Spiritualist respect!


She grinned, as happy as she had ever been since coming to this place, but when she returned to the garden, she did not see Zesyr anywhere.


“Hm? Where did that stubborn girl run off to?”


Xia Fei came out of Heavenly Treasure Firm from a side door, but he had barely walked a few steps onto the street before stopping and shaking his head. He sighed. “I say, lady, what in the world is wrong with you? Why are you following me again?”


He turned his head and saw Zesyr Night standing right in the middle of the street, smiling at him.


In truth, Zesyr Night had high etiquette and was normally very obedient, but as ladies from big clans were often raised in the lap of luxury, they usually had some temper. Zesyr Night was confronting Xia Fei partly because her personality as a young lady demanded it.


“The street is open for everyone to walk on, and it’s not like your family owns it, so why can’t I follow you?” Zesyr nonchalantly said. “You’re called Xia Fei, right? What sort of scandalous relations.h.i.+p do you have with Big Sister Suzu?”


Her first sentence was rather clever, but the rest of her words were very blunt. Zesyr was not the shrewd sort, so she had directly asked Xia Fei what his relations.h.i.+p with Suzu Treasure was.


Xia Fei chuckled. “If I said that I’m in a relations.h.i.+p with Suzu Treasure, would you believe me?”


Zesyr was startled, and then she shook his head. “I really wouldn’t. An insignificant character like you will never catch Big Sister Suzu’s eyes. She’s got a lot of ambition, and she’s the smartest among us girls.”


Xia Fei turned around and kept walking, muttering, “Yes, too smart. Everything she does is done with a goal in mind, and she has never let anyone get too close.”


Zesyr truly did not act like a stranger, grabbing Xia Fei’s sleeve and saying, “So it’s the same for you? You look so young, but why do you talk like my grandfather?” He said the same thing about Sister Suzu.


Xia Fei replied, “Businessmen pursue profit, so it’s understandable. You believe that there’s nothing between me and her now, right?”


“Hmph!” Zesyr pursed her lips. “Even if you wanna have something with Sister Suzu, I won’t let you. Oh! They’re selling candy pictures here.”


She had a flighty personality, and the snacks and street performers being sold had drawn her attention. Without even asking the price, she grabbed them.


However, she quickly tuned and gave Xia Fei a pitiful look.


“I didn’t bring any money with me…”


Xia Fei did not have anything else to do, so he decided to take a walk on the streets with Zesyr Night. Xia Fei had said that he wanted to take a look around Garde 83 when he first arrived, but he had been so busy that he had put it off until now.


Zesyr Night was a very guileless girl. Xia Fei found it quite amusing to keep her company. They walked the streets until it was noon; at which point, they found a random street stall to eat at. As a young lady from a big clan, Zesyr had never had a chance to eat street food, so a bow! of fish b.a.l.l.s with green


onions had her smiling from ear to ear.


“A soul battle center!” Zesyr pointed at a rather flashy sign to their right. “Come on. Let’s go in and take a look!”


It had been quite some time since Xia Fei went through soul battle training, and he was somewhat itching to try his hand at it, so he and Zesyr Night went into this soul battle center.


There were only around a hundred simulation pods in the place. It was not that large of a center, but it was a network center of the Soul Battle Simulation company, so it could link to all the other virtual battlefields in the universe.


To preserve its profits, the Soul Battle Simulation company only permitted its subsidiaries to operate the network centers. A soul battle center like The Mammoth might have been large, but it was not a network center, so people in the center could only play with one another.


Besides soul battles, there were education packages. If one paid a certain fee, they could watch various battle recordings, and a soul battle specialist would give tips as to how to raise one’s combat skills.


A screen was playing a video of Xia Fei’s time in The Mammoth. The bizarre footwork and das.h.i.+ng poses drew gasps from the crowd.


“This is the video! I’ve watched it nearly a hundred times, but I really don’t know how he did it.”


“If you could see through the footwork, it wouldn’t be used as an example! On the Soul Battle Simulation company’s official website, this video has already set a record for the most times downloaded, and it’s the hottest soul battle video of all time.”


“It’s such a pity that that Xiao Fei fellow hasn’t appeared since then, already becoming a legend.”


As the crowd chattered, Xia Fei frowned. The Mammoth was on a closed network, yet the Soul Battle Simulation company had taken this video of Xia Fei from the closed network and uploaded it for the public to watch, not giving Xia Fei even a single cent in copyright fees. Xia Fei was very annoyed by


this.


Zesyr Night’s eyes flashed as she said mysteriously, “You learned that footwork you used to avoid me the other day from this video, right? Hehe! It was pretty good. I guess you’re quite the excellent learner. Relax, I won’t tell you to Xiao Fei.”


Xia Fei was taken aback. This was clearly his own evolved Crafty Approach, so why was Zesyr implying that he had stolen it?


Frowning, Xia Fei asked, “You know Xiao Fei?”


Zesyr looked around and smugly nodded.


“Haha! On the Mammoth, I happened to run into the operator of the one-armed Xiao Xing.”


*zing~*


Xia Fei grimaced and muttered, “Nonsense. I’ve never even met you before, so how would you know that I was that Xiao Fei?”


Xia Fei felt very sullen. He believed that he had been keeping his secrets well, but it turned out that this girl had seen through him.


*Pal*


Zesyr laughed and playfully punched him in the belly.


“You sure know how to crack a joke! It would be bizarre indeed if you could operate the one-armed Xiao Xing!”


Looking around, Zesyr whispered into Xia Fei’s ear, “That person is actually the Xiao Clan’s Xiaoxiao. People call him Seventh Master Xiao!”


Xia Fei was even more confused now. He had clearly been the operator of Xiao Xing, so where had this Xiao fellow come from?


“Lwas with Seventh Master Xiao on Mammoth, so not only do I know that Xiao Xing is Seventh Master Xiao, I even left him a message on the battle simulation center. You believe me now, right?” Zesyr asked smugly.


Xia Fei finally understood. It turned out that the girl who kept sending him messages was this Zesyr Night!


Smiling, Xia Fei said, “Alright, I believe you.”


As long as he was not exposed, Xia Fei did not really care about some Seventh or Eighth young Master.


“Let’s go. These guys are miles away from reaching Seventh Master Xiao’s level, but they want to master Xiao Xing? They don’t know their own strength,” Zesyr pouted and said.


Xia Fei was speechless.


“Your learning ability is pretty good. Given how quickly you emulated Seventh Master Xiao’s footwork, you must have a lot of potential.”


Xia Fei remained speechless…


“Still even if you have the potential, you can’t become too proud. You should stop pretending to be Seventh Master Xiao. After all, that’s not footwork you developed yourself. Seventh Master Xiao is good when it comes to anything else, but he’s a little small-minded. If he finds out that you’ve been


pretending to be him and comes to settle the score, you’ll be finished.”


“Haaa….” Xia Fei had truly thoroughly been rendered speechless…


“Do you have a crush on this Seventh Master Xiao?” Xia Fei probed.


Zesyr’s face reddened, and she whispered, “Who wouldn’t like someone who could turn Xiao Xing into a monster?”


Bystanders actually found it very strange that Xia Fei was keeping Zesyr Night company.


Xia Fei had never cared about his clothes. His exercise clothes were losing their color, and this was the same set he had worn back on Earth.


However, Zesyr Night was completely different. She exuded the superiority of a rich young lady from every pore of her body. Even her handkerchief was worth a thousand pearls.


A pair like this walking the streets naturally drew stares, some kind and some unkind.


Several richly dressed young men sat in a private room on the second floor of a streetside restaurant. They were all children of the Laz Clan, whiling away their time by drinking as they looked out on the street for any pretty girls. When they saw one, they would whistle and share a laugh with one another.


“Third Brother, look over there! Isn’t that the only remaining resident of the Aurora Clan’s external compound? His name is Xia Fei. I had someone investigate, and it seems like he has no kin in the Aurora Clan. He’s just a guy who does nothing all day.”


The youth who had been called ‘Third Brother’ frowned and stared at Xia Fei, muttering, “D*mn, the hoodlums from the Aurora Clans external compound came to our clan to cause trouble, but he stayed. Maybe he’s the one who planned it all out!”


The others were taken aback, and quickly praised him.. “Third Brother is truly wise! Why don’t we teach him a small lesson? He dares to walk the streets with such a pretty girl? He truly doesn’t know what’s good for him!
