Capítulo 863: Chapter 403: Divine Mimicry Heavenly Soldier (Part 2)

Li Yunyan’s luck is indeed much better than Li Yelai’s!

This conversion rate, even in the official data, is considered rare.

“Is my luck so bad because yours is too good?” Li Yelai was shocked, envious, and began to doubt.

Then, Li Yelai handed a Divine Mimic Sky Soldier to Li Yunyan: “Keep it as your trump card. Even against a Sixth-sense Expert, it can hold its own.”

“You keep it; just give me one with Sixth Sense Strength. I haven’t even reached the Third Awakening yet. Having it would be a waste. I’m in logistics…” Li Yunyan replied: “By the way, give me a few more with Four Awakenings Strength.”

“No problem, there are plenty. Most are Four Awakenings.” Li Yelai nodded, pointing to the pile of Golden Peas on the table.

“Wow, not bad, how much Merit Points did these materials cost this time?”

“Ten thousand…”

Looking at more than seventy Golden Peas, Li Yunyan fell silent for a moment: “Officially, a Five Senses Strength Mimic Heavenly Soldier costs around one hundred Merit Points.”

Li Yelai was silent too.

Indeed, with those ten thousand Merit Points, if one directly buys Five Senses Mimic Heavenly Soldiers, one could get a hundred of them.

But normally, the cost efficiency of purchasing materials and then refining them would be better.

After all, spending some Merit Points on materials and then refining them, and a furnace can produce six to eight Mimic Heavenly Soldiers.

Theoretically, it’s more cost-effective than direct purchase.

But who’s to say this isn’t luck-based? After refining ten furnaces, there aren’t many with Five Senses.

“You’re such a spendthrift…” Li Yunyan remarked, looking at the remaining materials: “Next time, let me do the refining. With my luck, maybe I can make you break even.”

“That’s not a worry, I’ll trade them within the ark, and surely I’ll break even. I might even earn quite a bit.” Li Yelai replied, as tomorrow is the day of the ark gathering. He needs to prepare some items for trading intelligence or goods.

If everything goes well, he will replace the deceased Black Umbrella, becoming a hot merchant within the ark, gaining more intelligence and resources.

“Alright then, let’s finish it quickly.”

After a few hours of busy work, Li Yelai obtained one hundred and fifty-five Golden Peas, including five Divine Mimic Sky Soldiers, eighteen Sixth Sense Mimic Heavenly Soldiers, the rest being Four Awakenings and Five Senses Strength.

There’s no denying, Li Yunyan’s luck is really good.

This has already allowed Li Yelai to break even; just those five Divine Mimic Sky Soldiers are worth no less than two thousand Merit Points.

Li Yunyan grabbed a handful and stuffed them into his pocket as his hard work fee.

“Hurry back, big brother. Doll Sister has prepared a surprise for you.” Li Yunyan smirked: “Also, Sister Cheese will be coming back in a few days. We must have a good gathering~~”

For some reason, Li Yelai felt his sister’s smile carried a hint of anticipation.

‘True, my sister hasn’t seen Cheese in a long time.’ Li Yelai didn’t think much of it.

But what he didn’t know was that including his sister and his good brother Jing Lin, some people were waiting for the return of the Champion Team One.

They even went as far as to open a gambling pool… Thank goodness the Blood God hasn’t noticed, or he might think they’ve somehow turned a group of potential believers chanting ‘blood will flow like rivers’.

…

About ten minutes later, Li Yelai arrived home.

Or rather, to Doll’s apartment.

When he opened the door, Doll was sitting on the sofa wearing a robe, idly swinging the Blue Sky White Cloud Gourd.

Upon hearing the sound, Doll turned her head and saw the dusty-faced Li Yelai.

Her eyes widened, her small mouth slightly opened, extremely surprised and equally cute.

“Xiao Ye…” Doll inched closer to Li Yelai, saying: “Your face is dirty.”

“Went to refine Heavenly Soldiers, need them for tomorrow.” Li Yelai smiled and asked: “What about you, is the Corpse Cutting Plan going well?”

“Yes, but it’ll take about a month for results to appear. During this time, I need to avoid fights.” Doll replied: “Why not take a shower first?”

Li Yelai nodded.

And when Li Yelai went into the bathroom, Doll hesitated for a moment, her face slightly reddening as she untied the waistband of her robe…

Ten minutes later, when Li Yelai returned to the room from the bathroom.

He was momentarily stunned, then he understood the so-called surprise…

In that gentle light, the girl was clad in a striking and gorgeous red sheer sash, leaning against the pristine white bed.

The red sheer created a sharp yet harmonious contrast with her fair skin, and the sheer fabric was thin and translucent, subtly revealing her graceful figure and delicate skin, arousing curiosity yet inspiring more longing due to its hazy allure.

Her long legs gently overlapped, seemingly shyly concealing, yet disclosed greater temptation.

Sacredness and allure, innocence and seduction were perfectly displayed before Li Yelai.

Making Li Yelai’s heartbeat accelerate… his breathing gradually becoming more rapid.

Her beautiful face flushed with pinkness, she softly asked: “Is it… is it beautiful?”

“Hmm, it looks great…” Li Yelai’s voice was slightly hoarse.

Doll felt a bit secretly pleased inside.

When shopping, she was advised by Li Yunyan to secretly buy these clothes.

Li Yunyan’s exact words were, ‘If you wear these, it’ll definitely make my brother go crazy over you. Guaranteed!’

‘Xiao Yan’s words were indeed right,’ Doll thought to herself.

However, in the following few hours, she somewhat regretted it.

Waves of electric currents spread down her spine, almost piercing through her body, leaving her mind blank.

She tried hard to cover her lips, but could hardly suppress the sweet and sticky moans.

‘No, not there…’

She sensed something, and gasping, she wanted to speak, but was forcefully embraced.

Sweat and tears mixed and fell….

Sometimes… advice should be taken with caution.

Doll was indeed the strongest captain, but in certain environments, she was really no match for Li Yelai.

Especially in… situations like this.

…

The next day, Li Yelai looked at the slumbering girl, feeling a wave of guilt.

‘Last night was a bit wild…’ Li Yelai felt somewhat self-reproachful.

After wiping the doll’s body and covering her with a blanket, he quietly left the room.

Upon arriving at the East City Branch, he entered the newly built underground network of the Giant City through a secret passage.

After much difficulty, he finally reached the new safe house.

The reason for such hassle was that the Church’s informants were observing their Divine Chosen, Li Yelai.

They must not be allowed to discover Li Yelai’s identity as an Ark Chosen One.

Meanwhile, Captain Yin Huo and the nun comrade were already waiting there.

Today was the day to enter the ark gathering.

According to the previous agreement with Yun Yue, today was also the day to contact the Witness.

However, up to now, Yun Yue had not contacted him, which should mean that this contact with the Witness would be after the gathering.

The official placed great importance on this, preparing a lot of questions.

After all, as the founder of the Ranger, the Witness held a wealth of information and was once allied with the Book Holder.

The officials of the Giant City were keen to know the origins of the Book of Destiny.

A powerful weapon that can cultivate strong individuals, if used correctly, could greatly benefit humanity. At the very least, it could avoid certain adverse effects.

As for hawking the imitative heavenly soldiers, the officials had already covered for Li Yelai.

After the Immortal Palace War, rumors circulated within the Spiritual Ability User circle that some small heavenly soldier furnaces had been taken by certain families, and the officials were purchasing them at high prices.

Thus, Li Yelai bringing out an imitative heavenly soldier wouldn’t arouse suspicion.

After confirming several key points with Yin Huo, Li Yelai looked towards the nun.

“Nun comrade, thank you. Sorry to trouble you so many times.” Li Yelai sincerely expressed his gratitude.

Every ark gathering required the nun to stay put to prevent any accidents. Recently, Doll’s Corpse Cutting Plan also received the nun’s assistance.

This made Li Yelai very grateful.

The nun smiled warmly: “You are my savior, no need to be so formal. Besides, this is beneficial for me as well.”

The heritage of the Immortal Palace also records the Spirit Extinguisher, with even some inheritance on opening a soul well for them.

Though some parts are missing, the officials are conducting experiments.

If the Spirit Extinguisher could open a soul well, how terrifying would their combat power be?

Ignoring the opponent’s spiritual energy attacks and spiritual barriers, they could just punch the opponent to death. Theoretically invincible.

Ye Han is so arrogant, isn’t it because of his Spirit Extinguisher bloodline and the Divine Demon Stele?

Once the nun opens the Soul Well, she’d be far stronger than Ye Han.

Subsequently, Li Yelai donned a suit and put on the Copper Face. With a long-missed sense of weightlessness, he arrived at the Ark Hall.

At the same time, a messenger team was skirting the influence range of the Forbidden Zone, speeding towards Border City.
