Embroidered Uniform Guard: I Can Plunder Talents-Chapter 95 - 6: Here Comes the Treasure Deliverer, Mage Talent Upgrade_3

Chapter 95: Chapter 6: Here Comes the Treasure Deliverer, Mage Talent Upgrade_3

"What’s there to avenge? On the contrary, I should thank you, right? After all, those guys were actually planning to kill me just now."

Even though her vision was blocked.

That didn’t mean Shu Fan had no idea what was happening.

"So, aren’t you gonna spill? We’re from the same sect, but instead of saving you, they tried to kill you. Don’t tell me you’ve got some priceless treasure on you?"

After saying that, Ye Liuyun deliberately swept his gaze up and down Shu Fan a few times.

Hmm, that figure really was perfection.

"Treasure?"

Meeting Ye Liuyun’s gaze, not only did Shu Fan not get embarrassed.

She even deliberately twisted her body, showing off even more in front of Ye Liuyun.

"Isn’t it obvious? I myself am the biggest treasure."

"... ..."

So cocky. But Ye Liuyun didn’t bother denying it.

"Ah, so it’s about talent, huh?"

That actually reminded Ye Liuyun, and he finally understood why those two acted like they did.

Hearing this,

Shu Fan didn’t deny it either.

"The Illusion Sound Sect doesn’t have a lot of disciples, and as the senior sister—and also the one with the greatest talent—naturally, most of the resources from the sect fall to me."

Which, honestly, was pretty normal.

The Illusion Sound Sect was never some big sect, just a small fry.

Resources for cultivation were limited.

And those few resources? No way they’re split equally. There’s no such thing as absolute fairness in this world.

It’s always about who has the best talent, and whoever does gets the lion’s share.

Shu Fan had the best talent, so she got the most resources—and obviously, that meant the other disciples ended up with less.

"If I got killed, all the resources that belonged to me would be divided among them, don’t you think?"

As she said this, Shu Fan couldn’t help but laugh.

She’d always figured her junior brothers and sisters were jealous, but hadn’t thought they’d get jealous enough to actually want her dead.

No chance for that inside the sect.

But now, outside the sect, they dared to think about ambushing her directly?

Another wry laugh, a shake of her head, Shu Fan quickly sorted out her emotions.

She put on her charming smile again, looking at Ye Liuyun.

"Lord Hundred Households, you absolutely must protect this little lady, I’m oh-so afraid."

Seeing Shu Fan bounce back to her previous self, Ye Liuyun didn’t take it too seriously.

"Save your charm magic for someone else—it’s wasted on me."

Not to mention his own late-stage innate cultivation—just counting all those stacked special talent entries, there was no way a single charm technique could faze him.

"What a drag, my lord."

Seeing Ye Liuyun completely unfazed by her.

Shu Fan’s tone turned a little bored.

But the look in her eyes when she glanced at Ye Liuyun had something odd mixed in.

Her cultivation—the Illusory Sound Technique—was indeed a type of charm magic, and thanks to her insane talent, Shu Fan mastered it in just a few years.

She was just a step away from perfection.

Forget innate martial artists—even Grandmasters,

Shu Fan was confident she could leer them for a bit. Sure, they’d break free quickly, but even getting charmed for a second meant they were charmed, period.

But when it came to Ye Liuyun, there wasn’t even a hint he’d been charmed.

"Wake them up, we’re hitting the road again."

Ye Liuyun couldn’t exactly guess what Shu Fan was thinking and didn’t much care.

With a sweeping gesture,

he draped the black cloth back over Shu Fan’s wooden prison.

He could ignore Shu Fan’s charm, but obviously, the others weren’t like him—they didn’t have piles of talent entries to dump on defenses.

Shu Fan didn’t try anything else.

She just stared straight at Ye Liuyun, like she wanted to burn the guy’s face into her brain.

Meanwhile, Si Nan and Shi Sheng went to wake up the fainted Embroidered Uniform Guards one by one.

That floral scent earlier was just a knockout drug—got these guys to pass out, but wasn’t fatal. They’d wake up in a bit.

Looks like the two Illusion Sound Sect disciples didn’t want to piss off the Embroidered Uniform Guard, just wanted to use the chance to kill Shu Fan—but oops, failed big time.

"Hmm?"

"What’s happened here?"

"Ugh, my head’s spinning."

One after another, people started waking up.

The ones out cold for too long got two big slaps from Shi Sheng—and that got them wide awake.

Clutching their fiery-red cheeks, they shot resentful looks at Shi Sheng, but didn’t dare say anything.

And that scene—

Si Nan couldn’t help but squint, feeling like he’d seen this somewhere before.

Soon enough, everyone was up and moving.

Seeing the two corpses on the ground, and hearing Si Nan’s explanation, everyone finally pieced together what happened.

Ambushed!

Thank the heavens for Lord Hundred Households—who knows if those two would’ve killed them while they were out cold? Too risky to joke about with only one life.

"Many thanks, Lord Hundred Households!"

"Lord Hundred Households, you’re incredible!"

Ye Liuyun just waved his hand dismissively at all the praise, not bothered at all.

Once everyone and the horses recovered,

Ye Liuyun hopped back on his horse, leading the group onward.

... ...

Figured they’d get attacked again later, honestly.

Who knew, maybe he could farm a couple more magical technique entries and pump his mage talents up to purple rank.

But unfortunately...

Once those two sixth-rank mages died, the road was quiet as a lake.

Not a single ambusher in sight.

Three days later,

the group made it back to the Imperial City safe and sound.

"Finally home!"

Seeing the familiar gates, Si Nan couldn’t help but let out a sigh.

No more eating under the open sky at last.

Thinking of something, Si Nan grinned at Ye Liuyun and said,

"Boss, after we throw our prisoner into the Celestial Prison, why don’t we hit the Imperial Music Bureau and have a little fun?"

Been cooped up like this for days—honestly, it’s getting nearly unbearable.

"You guys go. I’m gonna pass!"

If he wanted to chill, didn’t have to do it at the Imperial Music Bureau; besides, Ye Liuyun planned to dig into those secret arts and test out some alchemy skills.

Seeing Ye Liuyun wasn’t going,

Si Nan looked a bit let down, but didn’t push it.

His eyes flicked to Shi Sheng, and Shi Sheng just said,

"You treat, I’ll go!"
