"Master, don’t be angry. Since we’ve come back, whoever did this will surface."
The two sisters were startled by the sight of Du You’s home. Unless there was some special circumstance, nobody’s house would end up .
Du You nodded: "I know, getting angry now is pointless. Let’s tidy up. When someone dares to show up, no matter who they are, I won’t let them off." The current Du You was completely different from the Du You of six months ago.
After six months on Earth time, Du You’s strength had reached a completely new level. Even though he couldn’t take on the entire city, there was no one in this city who could intimidate him now.
With the house in such a state, Du You didn’t bother cleaning up. Taking the two sisters with him, he first went to the robot market to buy some robots to clean up the house.
The things in the house hadn’t suffered much damage; they were just cluttered up.
After cleaning up a bit, Du You contacted the home-management company. He paid for ten years’ worth of cleaning service in advance, ensuring someone would clean their house every day for the next ten years. If any problems occurred, the company would directly notify him.
Meanwhile, after returning home, Lin Feng stayed only briefly before leaving immediately. The usually low-profile Lin Feng could not believe he had, through familial connections, managed to approach Mayor Li Sanyuan.
"Lin lad, what do you want from me?" Li Sanyuan regarded Lin Feng indifferently.
Despite being from Capital University, Lin Feng was merely a pay-to-enter affiliate academy student. He lacked the grade and potential. After one semester, he remained at tier one and seemed average to Li Sanyuan.
Without strong power or potential and no chance of inheriting the Lin Family, he was already giving the Lin Family face by not ignoring him. If Lin Feng couldn’t give him satisfactory answers, Li Sanyuan would show him the consequences of offending him. He didn’t think the Lin Family would dare to argue on behalf of such a junior, as long as he didn’t go overboard. Follow current novᴇls on 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹~𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮~𝚗𝚎𝚝
Lin Feng confidently said: "Uncle Mayor, I am here mainly because of an incident. We received news that you once pursued and killed someone for a hidden legacy."
Li Sanyuan’s eyes flashed with a murderous intent: "Your intelligence work is excellent."
"Thank you for the compliment. We also found out that this hidden legacy was a Demon Hunter Shooter."
"Hmph. How did you know?" Surprised by Lin Feng’s detailed knowledge, Li Sanyuan couldn’t remain calm. Did the legacy he failed to get end up in the Lin family’s hands?
Lin Feng hastily explained: "This was an accident. Among those who got into Capital University from our house, apart from me, were two others."
Li Sanyuan gave a noncommittal humph.
"One of them, Du You, was my former classmate. After getting into Capital University, he bought two slaves who became quite famous as Demon Hunter Shooters after a while. We came to know about the origin of this incident after investigating."
At this point, Li Sanyuan’s face changed: "So, that lad took it away."
Seeing that the Mayor had no significant reaction, Lin Feng became anxious. "Uncle Mayor, Du You has already returned to our city with his two slaves."
Li Sanyuan waved his hand: "No use. As they have obtained the hidden occupation, killing them wouldn’t make a difference." He was annoyed, but he wasn’t willing to offend Capital University, especially without any benefits. Originally, this legacy was meant for his son.
Should it turn out successfully, his son’s potential for growth might surpass his own. By that time, he would have a suitable successor. He couldn’t just hand over the city to others.
Even if his son couldn’t use it, what about his grandson, or those after him? Life spans of Professionals are quite long.
"What if we have this? It would make a big difference."
Lin Feng pulled out a scroll from his pocket and handed it over to Li Sanyuan. Finally, Li Sanyuan smiled: "Ah, this. A Profession Removal Scroll. Quite impressive that you managed to get one."
"Hehe, a Profession Removal Scroll can strip the profession from another professional and transfer it to someone who hasn’t chosen a profession yet. Allowing those with no profession to obtain new ones. It’s just rare, that’s all."
"Then what do you plan to get in exchange for this handsome gift? I can’t accept it without offering something."
Upon hearing this, Lin Feng grinned: "Du You is also my enemy. His growth poses a great threat to me. So, you could consider this a win-win collaboration."
"State your demands directly." As the Mayor, Li Sanyuan was not someone who could be easily hoodwinked.
Lin Feng immediately put away his smile: "Haha, you’re too smart for me. Actually, we’re interested in developing the new mine in the eastern suburbs and wonder whether you’d consider collaborating with us."
"Ah, so that’s it. I knew you weren’t doing this just out of the goodness of your heart. Fine, I agree. As long as I can get the Demon Hunter Shooter profession, you can mine in that area for ten years." A mere mine meant little to him compared to the likelihood of having a powerful professional in the family.
"Thank you, Uncle Mayor. Let’s start now while the momentum is high, so nothing unpredictable happens."
"How do you plan to deal with him? Du You is a genius that appears once in a hundred years. He’s been in Capital University for some time now and nobody knows how much he has improved."
"Hehe, Uncle, you’re joking. Du You was just lucky. He never had backers. Although he broke through to the second tier and has strong magic powers, he’s barely average. This is Earth, not the Other World."
Saying this, Lin Feng took out some videos of Du You. Most of them were recorded during the last test. From Lin Feng’s perspective, it was already impressive that Du You showed such strength and it was unlikely that he could improve rapidly. Even Lin Feng couldn’t progress at that pace. How could Du You, being from an ordinary background?
Although watching these videos, Lin Feng intuitively didn’t believe them and thought they were exaggerated.
"Alas, he is indeed powerful. There aren’t many in our city with such capability. Such a pity he can’t be of use to me."
