Chapter 363: Xu Yuan and Bayion
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Praise be to the Ice Goddess! A Victory Gem! I can still scarcely believe it!” Claude as he walked into the room. “Lady Tristana, the goddess truly guided us to Lord Su Wan. Who would have thought such a rare treasure would be in the hands of Lord Su Wan?” When he finally reached Tristana, he saw Bayion.
Claude swallowed the rest of his words and bowed to Bayion. “Your Highness…”
“Victory Gem? You have obtained the Victory Gem that can summon the goddess?!” Bayion looked at Tristana in disbelief.
“Yes. Lord Su Wan got it on one of her expeditions. Lord Xu Yuan and Lord Su Wan, they gave it to me.”
Tristana opened her palm and a gem materialized there. Bayion could sense the magical energy within it.
Bayion looked conflicted. She had assumed that Su Wan had tricked Tristana into giving away the manor, but it seemed it wasn’t that simple. She understood why Tristana felt that associating with Su Wan was beneficial.
The Victory Gem wasn’t an ordinary gem. There were records in the scrolls of how legendary masters used the Victory Gem to summon the Goddess of Victory and advanced to become a demigod.
Bayion was silent for a while. “Tristana, can you introduce me to Lord Su Wan too?” she asked after a while.
After returning from the black market, Su Wan and Xu Yuan had nothing to do for the next few days,
They visited the Canglan City Hall and transferred the ownership of the lavender Manor to Su Wan’s name.
The manor was now hers. In the future, it would serve as a base for the Chamber of Commerce.
Tristana wasn’t even sad. She was very satisfied that she could offer some help.
Su Wan took advantage of their free time and went to explore Canglan City with Tristana.
While admiring the scenery and the culture, Su Wan also closely observed the layout of the city.
Su Wan learned a lot from just observing the buildings. She now had various ideas to improve her territory.
Canglan City was big and bustling but orderly.
Although various things in the city were far from perfect, everything was created with local convenience in mind.
Canglan City was worthy of being called the most prosperous city!
The only difference Su Wan noticed was that of a figure who accompanied them frequently. The beautiful person who always tagged along was Bayion, daughter of Archduke Qing You.
She was very young. She might not even be in her twenties yet. Yet, she handled the merchant association.
What amused Su Wan was that this young girl always accompanied her and Xu Yuan. She wanted to find some common topic to talk about.
Bayion even mentioned the Victory Gem a few times. Su Wan understood what Bayion wanted.
When it came to Tristana, Su Wan was willing to build a relationship with her. Tristana was smart and formidable and undoubtedly would become Grand Duke Frostwolf in the future.
Bayion, in comparison, was just a child playing around in the world because the title she held was given to her without any problem. Su Wan and Xu Yuan had no interest in dealing with someone like that, even if she had her father’s backing.
Bayion was familiar with Lords fawning over her to earn her favor. When Su Wan didn’t extend the same courtesy, she felt slighted and decided to try even harder.
She wondered why Su Wan favored Tristana so much and didn’t even give her any attention.
That made Bayion even more curious about Su Wan.
Bayion was like a child competing with others for attention.
When Tristana saw Bayion pestering Su Wan, she apologized to Su Wan in private. She told her not to take her attempts to heart. Bayion was an entitled individual with a stubborn personality.
Su Wan didn’t say anything.
That evening, in the main hall of the Lavender Manor, Bayion tried to talk to Su Wan again.
“Lord Su Wan, is there really a Dark Swamp outside your territory? How did you create it?” asked Bayion.
Su Wan took a sip of her tea.
“Xu Yuan, what is the underground city like? If I visit your territory, will you take me to the underground city to take a look? I heard that there is a Black Dragon treasure trove in the underground world. There are spider liars everywhere! I want to explore it! If I can find a few dragon eggs, it would be great!”
Bayion asked them endless questions. Su Wan and Xu Yuan didn’t mind.
“Sure, Your Highness,” said Su Wan. “We can definitely show you around. But will your father let you leave Canglan City?”
“I’m already Level 44! If I reach Level 45, I’ll have the freedom to make my own decisions.”
“Then we’ll talk about it when you are level 45,” said Xu Yuan.
“Lord Xu Yuan, you’re very kind.” Bayion rolled her eyes.
“Thank you so much,” said Xu Yuan.
“I’m not actually complimenting you, you b*stard!”
“Your Highness, you can’t curse in here!” said Tristana.
“Don’t you dare talk to me like that,” said Xu Yuan to Bayion.
Tristana was amused as she watched Bayion and Xu Yuan bicker with each other. She felt that it was about time someone talked to Bayion so directly.
As Xu Yuan and Bayion got into a heated argument, footsteps sounded at the door.
“Lady Tristana, there are three Lords outside who wish to see Lord Su Wan,” said George. “The two of them worked here before as servants but the other one… I’ve never seen him before.”
Tristana turned to look at Su Wan.
Su Wan looked eager. ‘Did they find out something about the Soul Contract?’
Although the reward for the S-class mission was already decided, Su Wan felt that it would be better if she could find the Soul Contract another way and avoid the dangerous mission.
She didn’t want to venture blindly into the treacherous temple..
