Legend of the Asura

Chapter 53: Delicate Rou Rou

With a flash of white light, one man and woman appeared in Heavenly Dragon Square.

"Brother, this is Heavenly Dragon Imperial City?  It looks quite magnificent." The girl had a white veil covering her face, but there were a pair of excited eyes looking over everything.

The man's stiff face revealed a trace of a smile.  His little sister's happiness was his greatest joy.

Although most players were out leveling, the Heavenly Dragon Imperial City's giant square was still packed with people. Yang Ao Tian was carefully protecting his little sister, blocking waves after waves of people.

In the square, there were five giant magical screens.  Yang Ao Tian's eyes were staring at one name on the level rankings like a poisonous snake, gripping his hands so tightly that they began to crack.

"XiMenKuang"

These three low and cold words seemed like they came from hell and the surrounding people couldn't help shivering.  Yang Xi Ruo looked at her big brother, but didn't interrupt him. She knew that her big brother would listen to her on anything, just not this.

Yang Xi Ruo looked at the "Wild Demon Wolf" Yang Ao Tian was looking at before revealing a look of pain and hatred.

Just what kind of crime would make this pure as snow young girl reveal this kind of hatred.

"Big brother."  Yang Xi Ruo softly pulled Yang Ao Tian's arm, "Quickly go and Change Jobs.."

"Un."  Yang Ao Tian came back to his senses.  He lovingly looked at his little sister and said, "Xi Ruo, what Job do you like?"

"I want to pick my favourite, the gardener Job.  I'll be able to see various kinds of flowers every day like this.."  Yang Xi Ruo's eyes were filled with excitement and expectation.

Yang Ao Tian's heart filled with pain as he silently nodded.

"Big brother, I won't need to burden you any longer."  Yang Xi Ruo's voice was filled with guilt. If it wasn't for the fact he was helping her reach level 10, her big brother would have changed Jobs already.

This was because Yang Xi Ruo simply did not have the mind to kill monsters to level at all.

Yang Ao Tian's face became solemn and he said in an angry voice, "You can't say this kind of nonsense in the future.  We are family members, what being a burden!"

Yang Xi Ruo stuck out her little tongue and pushed Yang Ao Tian, "I know!  Go already big brother, you have to surpass that powerful Asura one day!"

Yang Ao Tian nodded, "You have to contact me if anything happens!"

Throwing away the bronze sword in his hand, Yang Ao Tian moved to the Job Change Center."

"I won't need you ever again."

...

"Yang Ao Tian, Job Change, Assassin!"

Heavenly Thorn's expressionless eyes looked over him and mumbled, "Only coming for a Job Change when you're close to level 14, could there be something interesting in the Beginner Village."

"Old Zhang.Ke, ke..Master Zhang, you can clearly teleport, so why does the old emperor..not send you to collect this herb."  Feng Xiao was teleported back to his door by Master Zhang and he couldn't help asking this.

"Warrior Wind Spirit, this poor daoist is helpless in this matter.  Not to mention that this poor daoist only has a movement range of 100 kilometers around Heavenly Dragon City, even if I could teleport in, this poor daoist would be killed in two seconds by the Immortal Beast."

Feng Xiao: Che~Wouldn't I be instantly killed too if I go.

"Master Zhang Tian is all powerful, are you afraid of a single Immortal Beast?"

"He, he, this lowly daoist has a weak life force, not to mention that I have almost no attack powers."

"Oh, so it's like this.  Oh, can you divulge this talisman technique to others?"  Seeing Master Zhang Tian take out a talisman and prepare to leave, Feng Xiao suddenly asked this.

Master Zhang Tian was stunned, "Oh?  Could it be warrior Wind Spirit has the heart for cultivation?  It's very simple, if warrior Wind Spirit has the heart, this daoist can immediately help you change into a Heavenly Daoist.  With warrior Wind Spirit's intelligence, you'll surely be a talent to our Heavenly Daoist Sect."

"It's that simple?"  Feng Xiao was stunned before immediately becoming vigilant, "Ke, ke, this one has yearned to be a daoist for a long time, but are there any other requirements to be a daoist?"

"Requirements?  There aren't any, but one cannot eat meat, indulge in women, stay out for long, feel greed, be easily angered, easily kill others, marry another, be lazy.."

Feng Xiao's face turned white hearing this and he quickly said, "This matter of cultivation is not urgent, we can take in the future.  That's right, I still have something else to do, so I won't send you off. Goodbye." He quickly entered the Feng House after saying this.

Master Zhang Tian was confused, "Is being a daoist this terrifying?"

"Young master, you're back."  Rou Rou stood there greeting him.

"Ah..Un."  Feng Xiao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.  Those group of daoist must have had their heads kicked in.

"Young master, please have some breakfast.."  Returning to the room, Rou Rou came in with a plate of desserts.

"Breakfast?  I've already ate."

Feng Xiao had eaten breakfast in reality and wasn't hungry.

Although eating food in the game wouldn't solve hunger in the real world, the taste and smell was no different from food in the real world.

It had to be said, Rebirth had a frightening high level of realism.

But Feng Xiao still took a cup of milk to drink.  The flavour was very sweet and it went down very smooth, being completely free of melamine.

[TL Note: This is a reference to the 2008 Chinese milk scandal where melamine was added to milk]

High Quality Milk:

Effect: HP +50.

"Rou Rou, sit down and eat with me."  Feng Xiao found Rou Rou secretly looking over funny, so he spoke up.

"Ah?  Young master, I..I already ate."

When she was with Princess Shui Yue before, she could eat with her without any hesitation.  However, for this young master that loved to tease her, she still wasn't sure of his personality, so was still undecided.

"You're still secretly swallowing your saliva after eating?  Quickly come and eat, us otherworlders don't have as many customs as you people."

Players ate just for fun, NPCs ate to not starve to death.

Rou Rou's face turned completely red.  She carefully sat down and took a cake from the plate.

The short breakfast had a strange peaceful aura to it.

"Rou Rou, watch over the house.  Don't open the door if bad people come."  Feng Xiao secretly rubbed Rou Rou a few times before preparing to leave in satisfaction.

"Young master.."  Rou Rou called out to stop Feng Xiao.

"Un?  What is it?  Can't bear to see me leave?  Hei, hei, no problem, I'll be back in the afternoon.  Just take off your clothes and wash up to wait for me."

Rou Rou's face became completely red as she ignored the second half of his words.  After hesitating for a while, she said, "Young master, the house..is almost out of money."

"Money?  What money?"  Could watching the house also require money?

"Young master..I need to buy cooking materials, various flower seeds and gardening tools, as well as clothes, water fees, oil fees, and..Moreover, I don't have any blankets in my room.  Last night I could only..sleep in young master's room."

"......"

"I..My money is still with Princess Shui Yue and I didn't bring it with me.  The bit of money I brought with me has already been used on last night's dinner and today's breakfast"

Feng Xiao broke out sweating, he had indeed neglected a very important thing.  Not only did he not give this little girl her salary, he didn't even give her her living expenses.

Although this girl did not necessarily need to be paid.

"Around how much do you need each day?"

"One day..Around one hundred gold coins."

".....Fortunately I can still afford this living standard."  Feng Xiao had a generous look as he gave Rou Rou 1000 gold coins, "This is the living expenses for 9 days, you don't need to make change.  Look after the house, I'm leaving."

"......"  Rou Rou thought in her heart, "Royal father clearly said that he had ten million gold coins, the young master is so stingy."

"Should I go and find something to do?  I could play with Princess Shui Yue when I was with her, but now this bad master usually isn't home, I'm sure to be bored to death."

"What what can I do?"
