Chapter 70



70 Previously Learned at Lanxiang

The seven of them stood there in shame, unable to speak.

Chu Bai had no choice. He could only settle for the next best thing and change to a hidden profession that might not be that strong.

Then, he squeezed the class change scroll.

[Ding. Class change failed.]

“As expected…”

Chu Bai was not particularly surprised because he had failed to change his class to Sword God.

“Still not enough?” the swordsman asked tentatively.

Chu Bai nodded.

Then, the old men looked at each other in shock.

“Even this power can’t do it?”

What level of power was worthy of him, then?

“Why don’t you try my mage?”

Chu Bai took the scroll.

[Ding. Class change failed.]

“No.” Chu Bai shook his head.

“You can try my archer’s hidden class.”

Chu Bai took the scroll.

[Ding. Class change failed.]

…

Chu Bai had tried everything, but he failed one by one.

“In other words, I can’t change my class?”

Chu Bai frowned.

“No! It’s not that you can’t change your class. If one day you can meet a powerful class that’s worthy of you, you can change your class. Perhaps you’ll have the opportunity to come into contact with even more powerful experts on the continent, and you may be able to inherit their power.

“If you can’t do it before Level 50, then you can only wait until after Level 50 to go to the three great empires of the East. There should be strong existences there.”

Chu Bai nodded.

That was the only way.

“I’m very sorry for our incapability.”

They all bowed.

Chu Bai’s bad impression of them for scamming his money had also lessened.

“If there’s nothing else, then I’ll be leaving.”

“Wait!”

The swordsman passed his hidden class scroll to Chu Bai.

“Little brother, take this scroll. If you meet a suitable person, you can give it to him. I can rest assured about the person chosen by the son of destiny.”

“I’ll also have to trouble you with my hidden class scroll.”

“And mine.”

…

[Ding. You have obtained Light Swordsman hidden class change scroll.]

[Ding. You have received Explosive Mage hidden class change scroll.]

[Ding…]

Seven scrolls for seven hidden classes.

‘This …’ Was this the invisible buff brought about by his luck?

“No problem!”

Then, the swordsman said, “Little brother, if you want to go out and gain experience, you can go to the mission board to receive a mission. However, our Liuzhou borders the demon race. We’re not far from the beast race either. You must be careful.”

“Many thanks! Then I’ll take my leave.”

“Take care!”

Chu Bai then went offline.

The seven of them heaved a sigh of relief.

“I didn’t expect to see the chosen one. He might even be our human race’s son of destiny. We’re so lucky.”

“The chosen one should be a man of good character and will definitely keep his promise. He promised us not to tell anyone about this, so he definitely won’t.”

“Forget it, forget it. I won’t think about it anymore. Old Swordsman, you’re treating me tonight. You said it yourself.”

The swordsman hugged his sword and said coldly, “I don’t have money, so why should I treat you?”

…

After Chu Bai went offline, he ate something and went to sleep.

He was too tired and could not take it at all. Besides his body, he was also overburdened in his mind.

He slept for nearly two days.

On the other hand, Jiang Qianyue, Yu Qingyu, and Lu Yufan were having dinner at home.

“What’s wrong? You look like you have a lot on your mind,” Jiang Qianyue asked.

Lu Yufan held her chin in her hands and used her chopsticks to dig into her bowl.

“Sister Qianyue, there hasn’t been any news from Chu Bai for the past two days. Do you think something happened to him?”

Lu Yufan put down her chopsticks, her face full of worry.

“He’s in his house all alone. We’ve knocked on his door a few times to give him some fruits and asked him to eat with us. We even looked for him yesterday to celebrate Brother Shan joining our studio, but he didn’t respond…”

They knew that Chu Bai was also playing the game, but they did not know his ID. Chu Bai even said that his talent was a rubbish overhealing talent and that… he might die in the game.

His shoes were still there at his door, which meant that the man was still there.

Jiang Qianyue said, “Don’t worry. Everything will be fine. Let’s eat.”

“Alright.”

Lu Yufan ate her rice listlessly.

“You guys eat first. I’ll go take a look.”

After eating two mouthfuls, Jiang Qianyue could not sit still any longer and stood up.

“I’m going too.” Lu Yufan immediately stood up.

“I’ll go and take a look too. After all, we’re friends,” Yu Qingyu said.

“Alright,” she said.

Then, they went to his door together.

Knock, knock, knock.

Lu Yufan knocked on the door.

“Chu Bai, are you there?” Lu Yufan called out.

Knock, knock, knock.

They knocked on the door again.

There was still no response.

Then, they increased their strength.

There was still no response.

The more it was like this, the more worried they were.

He would not have… Did something really happen?

It was not that they liked him. They just felt that he was a good person. They were friends and neighbors, and they met frequently. They were really worried that something had happened to him.

Due to the game, many of their friends were no longer around. Many people especially cherished their friends, worried that they would disappear one day.

“Sister Qianyue.”

Lu Yufan looked at Jiang Qianyue worriedly.

“Let’s go to a locksmith. There’s been no news for two days, and there’s no response when we knock on the door. It’s quite strange.”

“I can do it,” Yu Qingyu replied.

“Huh?”

They looked at Yu Qingyu in confusion.

“I learned it in Lanxiang before.”

After Yu Qingyu finished speaking, she took out a small clip and broke the thin and long iron wire on it. Then, she walked to Chu Bai’s door and stabbed it in the keyhole.

Lu Yufan placed her hands in front of her chest and muttered in her heart.

“I pray that Chu Bai is fine. If he’s fine, then my chest will grow to the size of Sister Qingyu’s and not to the size of Sister Qianyue’s! I seek your blessing!”

Click!

“It’s opened.”

Yu Qingyu opened the door and took a step back.

“Let’s go in and take a look.”

Then, they walked in carefully.

“Chu Bai, are you there?”

Jiang Qianyue called out softly.

“Chu Bai.”

Lu Yufan also shouted.

Click.

They opened a bedroom door, but there was no one inside.

Lu Yufan shouted as she opened the door of another bedroom.

Click.

After that…

“Ah!”

She covered her eyes and screamed.

“What’s wrong?”

Jiang Qianyue and Yu Qingyu were both shocked.

They subconsciously thought that Lu Yufan might have seen Chu Bai’s body or something scary.

Then, they quickly ran to the door and looked inside.

The next second…

The two girls were stunned.

Whoosh!

Jiang Qianyue’s and Yu Qingyu’s faces both turned red. One turned to the left while the other turned to the right, but they did not scream like Lu Yufan.
