Chapter 175: The Meaning of Extravagant?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The scenery in front had layers of wonders—it was like a bamboo forest in the deep valley that was accompanied with refreshing autumn wind. It was a manor that could be described with a saying, “The roar of the bear and dragon caused the fountain water to resonate, even the deep forest and mountains were also shaking1.”
Liu Jie was shocked by the beauty, but he still couldn’t help twitching his mouth!
Liu Jie involuntarily recalled the time he had visited and was thinking how Wen Yu had spent a fortune to invite three spirit qi professionals from the lifestyle-class Construction Association.
All of them possessed the Diamond Earth-Turning Giant Elephants. Using their exclusive skill, Earth-Turning Wrath, the old site of this manor, including the foundations, was turned into dust.
They then used the Earth-Turning Giant Elephants’ ability, Mother Earth Pressure, to turn the dust into compressed soil.
This huge project that would normally need a few months was completed in less than half a day under Wen Yu’s command. Even as Radiance Hundred Sequence #39, this was the first time Liu Jie had seen anyone hiring Diamond Earth-Turning Giant Elephants to tear down an old site.
It was something that no one would normally even dare to think about. These three Diamond/Elite Earth-Turning Giant Elephants might not have much potential to evolve again, but they were still the Royal Capital’s Construction Association’s distinguishing mark.
However, all these weren’t important. The most crucial point was how Wen Yu had generously used those Radiance dollars. The price for three Diamond Earth-Turning Giant Elephants to stomp the ground was just slightly lower than what was required to purchase a piece of land like this.
In the past, Liu Jie had always felt that women were very cute lifeforms, but after witnessing We Yu’s performance, he felt that this world’s most horrifying thing wasn’t the dimensional rifts. Instead, it was a woman who would use money without hesitation.
At that moment, Lin Yuan and Liu Jie saw Wen Yu holding a long list and walking out of the construction site.
Before this, Lin Yuan had still been thinking how much Radiance dollars had been spent since Earth-Turning Giant Elephants had been used to tear down the old site, Soil-Flowing Titan Bears had been used to bury 500,000 catties of high-grade energy ores, and a Class 4 Spirit Craftsmen team had been asked to expedite their work for two months.
Thus, it was surprising that not a single Radiance dollar had been used for such a huge project.
When Wen Yu saw Lin Yuan’s puzzled look, she turned to look at Liu Jie first and glanced at Liu Jie’s retainer crest before she spoke softly. “Previously, Lord Mystic came looking for the Young Master. After finding out that Young Master was in seclusion at the Creation Master Association and seeing that I was preparing to tear down the old site, he took over the project. After making the arrangements, he then handed it back to me for supervision.”
After speaking, Wen Yu stuck out her tongue. She had glanced at Liu Jue’s retainer crest to see whether it was embedded with the symbol of a moon. It was not, which meant that Lin Yuan had not replaced Liu Jie’s retainer crest with the new one after becoming the Moon Empress’ disciple.
Wen Yu didn’t know whether Liu Jie knew that Lin Yuan was the Radiant Moon Palace’s Young Lord. Thus, she had addressed Mystic Moon as Lord Mystic, instead of Lord Mystic Moon. After all, there was only one person with the title of Mystic Moon in the Radiance Federation.
Although Wen Yu had been tasked to construct the manor, even if Lin Yuan’s beetle-shaped fey storage box had enough Radiance dollars, she wouldn’t dare to squander them like that.
As Lin Yuan’s assistant, Wen Yu knew of her role. Naturally, she wouldn’t do anything
that would put Lin Yuan at a disadvantage. However, since Mystic Moon had taken over the project, Wen Yu didn’t have to hold back on the spending.
After all, it wasn’t Lin Yuan who had to pay. Lord Mystic Moon was the one that had to foot the bill.
As one of Radiant Moon Palace’s spirit attendants, Wen Yu had boundless respect toward Mystic Moon, one of the Radiant Moon Palace’s two Moon Envoys. However, now that she was Lin Yuan’s assistant, she naturally had to be more considerate toward Lin Yuan.
Hence, Wen Yu didn’t help Mystic Moon to save any money when purchasing the manor’s construction materials. All of the materials were the best that the Spirit Craftsman Association could provide.
As a spirit attendant of the Radiant Moon Palace, Wen Yu’s experience was naturally beyond regular people. The use of Diamond Earth-Turning Giant Elephants might be shocking for Liu Jie, but it was actually nothing much for Wen Yu.
The Radiant Moon Palace had plenty of rare feys, such as the two unique Diamond/Legend Silver Stamen Gold Luster Cassias. Wen Yu had been able to see them on a daily basis, so she was already very accustomed to such a sight.
