At this moment, Zhuo Houyi’s hands were trembling as he moved the goods.

A Purple Name NPC, how could he ever come across a Purple Name NPC!

He’s a guild player, he understood the significance of a Purple Name NPC more than MO Guanji did!

This indicated that the other party was among the top players in the whole “Heavenly Dust,” likely one of the most prominent ones!

No need to worry about the Orange Name above the Purple Names for now. The nature of most games is that those are set up as the final big bosses. In fact, even when Lu Xun played games in his previous life, he never saw an Orange Name NPC.

“I should latch onto this guy!” This thought immediately popped into Zhuo

Houyi’s head.

Not to mention he’s just a middle-ranking officer in the guild, but even the usually arrogant rich second-generation Guild leader would instantly become a sycophant when faced with a Purple Name.

That’s how players are, they fervently curry favor with the strongest NPCs, gain their own benefits, and then oppress other players!

—Seek fortune in flattery!

The Knight Guild he’s part of has an unwritten but well-accepted rule: be the mount to the NPC, be the knight among players.

Zhuo Houyi immediately felt an energy boost, eager to get close to the legendary Purple Name NPC.

This time he is definitely going to make a name for himself. The rich second-generation Guild leader will certainly give him a huge bonus. How wonderful!

Regrettably, the new quest he had just taken had to be completed first. After quickly moving all the goods, Zhuo Houyi said to MO Guanji solemnly: “Brother, I owe you a huge favor this time!”

Their friendship instantly elevated.

Outside of Tong County, in a small grove, Zhuo Houyi and MO Guanji had already added each other as friends and switched to team mode. They hurried towards the location of the carriage.

By the time they got to the carriage, they saw the two longswords that were forced to fly out by Lu Xun’s finger strike.

MO Guanji had already described to Zhuo Houyi what happened back then.

Zhuo Houyi visualized the scene, feeling blown away by the awesomeness!

With a swipe of his finger, his opponent’s longsword flew away uncontrollably. How cool was that!

He really wanted to pick up the two swords, but did not dare to.

In the end, MO Guanji, the more courageous one, ran over cheerily and picked up the swords, one for each of them.

As they approached the carriage, both Zhuo Houyi and MO Guanji acted more cautiously.

“Sir, I have brought the person,” MO Guanji spoke, as if he was submitting a task.

“Very good,” Lu Xun stepped down from the carriage, choosing task completed, then gave him ten silvers.

Murong Yan and Ji Li followed him down from the carriage. Upon seeing the two women, MO Guanji and Zhuo Houyi were slightly taken aback.

Whether it’s Murong Yan or Ji Li, both are Yellow Name NPCs. Most of the basic facts about Murong Yan are unknown. On the other hand, Ji Li’s information is less mysterious due to her low level.

Upon Lu Xun’s order, Ji Li put on a veil and wore a robe that concealed her figure.

He did not want Ji Li’s picture to be posted on forums by players. Her innocent face combined with her voluptuous body would be clickbait for otakus, wouldn’t it?

With a ton of people replying tactlessly “I’m done” under the forum post, Lu Xun would need to note their gamer tags and kill them one by one, how tiring would that be.

Lu Xun turned his gaze to Zhuo Houyi, feeling that his name seemed somewhat familiar…

“Oh! Now I remember, this guy is from the Knight Guild, under the leadership of that rich second-generation kid.”

Lu Xun had taken tasks from the Knight Guild before, serving as their auxiliary force, secretly undermining people early on and reaping the rewards later.

He once joined Zhuo Houyi’s team and was very impressed with the captain’s enthusiastic demeanor which seemed a little fanatical.

The Knight’s Guild is always generous, and the guild name is to Lu Xun’s liking.

As the “Explosive Temper Great Cane Hero” in “Heavenly Dust,” he has worked with them no less than ten times with enjoyable results, hence he has a good impression of this guild.

However, that rich second-generation Guild Leader is a bit of a show-off and belongs to the type who subtly flaunts his wealth while presenting himself with humility and decency. He’s a high-level practitioner of showing-off.

But then again, he must be genuinely wealthy, a truly extravagant spender, otherwise, he wouldn’t have managed to raise the guild’s level to tier-two within such a short period.

“This attitude of the rich second-generation… can be exploited. I can make him create a buzz for me.” Lu Xun thought to himself.

As Lu Xun approached Zhuo Houyi, Zhuo Houyi could feel an intense pressure naturally coming from him.

This pressure originated not only from his Purple name status but also from his overwhelming attractiveness and demeanor. It felt as if the other party was born royalty, and he was just an ordinary folk.

“This NPC is remarkably handsome! Why do I feel honored even at the thought of working for him?” Zhuo Houyi thought he was losing his mind.

The next moment, he received a message.

[Ding! Mysterious Man ?? (Purple level), your favorability with him -1.]

Zhuo Houyi was flabbergasted, how could there be an NPC that lowers favorability as soon as you meet them?

Is it wrong for my character customization skills to be trash and ended up creating an ugly character appearance?

What he didn’t know was that Lu Xun was testing the favorability function at that moment. Simultaneously, he knew very well that players from such guilds or clubs loved to raise their favorability with NPCs. Starting with a -1 would make them anxious, but it would push them to try harder in the future.

All Lu Xun had to do was bear the title of a Purple Name NPC, add in his exceptional beauty, and maintain his noble and aloof demeanor throughout.

The stingier he was with favorability, players might even think that the hidden tasks one could trigger after gaining a certain degree of favorability would be even more outstanding!

With his hands clasped behind his back, Lu Xun declared, “I need two charioteers to drive me to Qingling City.”

Regarding the task reward, he pondered for a while before opting for the “Eagle’s Claw”.

Turns out that “skills” also fell under the “item” category and were considered special items. freewebnσvel.cøm

Upon seeing that a skill was up for grabs, Zhuo Houyi and MO Guanji lost their calm.

Even though it was a low-grade grey skill, it was still a skill!

“Eagle’s Claw,” it sounded impressive.

The two accepted the task without any hesitation.

However, the moment they became charioteers, they started feeling puzzled.

“Aren’t cultivators capable of flying and teleportation? Why would they need a coach

They soon brushed aside their doubts, reasoning that all highly skilled people are eccentric, right? Eccentricity is a common trait among the skilled ones.

Besides, if he didn’t ride a coach, they wouldn’t have the opportunity to accept this task!

During the ride, Zhuo Houyi found time to message the Guild Leader of Knight Guild, notifying him about his encounter with a Purple Name NPC.

Typically, many guilds would keep such encounters to themselves in hopes of gaining an advantage. But the super-rich Knight Guild leader chose to— immediately and publicly—show off!

He decided to publicize this incident to create a buzz for the Knight Guild.

After all, while others treat their guild as a business to be developed, this super-rich second-generation just started playing casually for fun. As a result, the Knight Guild could never reach the top-tier status.

Following the Guild Leader’s instruction, Zhuo Houyi shared a screenshot featuring Lu Xun. Shortly after, the Knight Guild’s official account posted about it on the forum.

As soon as the post was uploaded, it caused an uproar in the entire forum.

All of it was within Lu Xun’s plans.
