Chapter 909: It’s a Crime Too for a Man to Be Too Outstanding…

Since he was done with fusing the gems now, Hong Dali instantly summoned the rest in.

“I am done. Yup, don’t snatch.” Hong Dali pointed at the pile of gemstones thrown on the floor as if they were rubbish and said, “Each of you, find 10 good gemstones and 10 lousier gemstones and equip them first.”

Looking at the pile of gemstones on the floor, everyone was dazed for a while. They had no idea where these gemstones came from. Of course, that wasn’t important, there wasn’t a need to question anything that the Young Master made. The important thing was that they should allocate these gemstones properly—if they just casually equip them, that would definitely be a waste.

“Dali.” Tang Muxin pulled Li Nianwei along with her and said, “Sister Nianwei and I shall pass this time. After all, we don’t need to fight ourselves, right?”

Li Nianwei nodded too. “That’s right. Young Master, it will be a waste to use them on the two of us.” Just from the looks of it, they could tell that the gemstones on the floor were of high-quality stuff. After all, this was Hong Dali’s character, he only wanted the best. If the gemstones weren’t up to his standard, he would have thrown them away like trash. That was just how magnanimous the Young Master was, that was why everyone was so loyal to him.

Since Li Nianwei and Tang Muxin already said so, Lucifer naturally followed and said, “I don’t need them too.”

Then, the other lackeys said, “Young Master, out of the few of us, only Li Yang fights the most, let him be fully equipped with the better gemstones. Sister Xiaoyi is our leader, she should have a full set of good gemstones too. As for the rest of us, we can just make do with the remaining gemstones.”

Hearing these, Hong Dali instantly nodded and said, “Alright, I will make better ones for the rest of you next time. The materials here are indeed a bit lousy. There’s no rush in this, just wait for some more time.”

Li Yang was so touched that tears flowed down his face. He said, “I shan’t say too much. Next time, I shall bear all the danger, and all of us shall enjoy the fortunes together!” This caused everyone to laugh.

At the side, Jiang Qianxue felt her heart warm up from seeing this.

Honestly speaking, even though she was a Galaxy Aristocrat and other people always treated her with respect, she had never seen people who were so strongly bonded together as a team.

That was definitely something money alone couldn’t buy, the charisma of the leader was very important too.

Hong Dali looked very carefree and careless normally, but he was never careless during major events before. That was how he could make everyone work for him wholeheartedly. Jiang Qianxue didn’t doubt that if Hong Dali was really in danger, these lackeys would definitely be willing to sacrifice themselves for him.

Thinking of these, Jiang Qianxue was suddenly a bit envious of Hong Dali.

He didn’t have a good birthright like the Galaxy Aristocrats, his power also didn’t seem to be very strong at the moment, but he was very happy.

That’s right, Hong Dali was living very happily, and he was always this happy.

Being a Galaxy Aristocrat, Jiang Qianxue had seen too many geniuses before. For them, it was as if there were swords hanging on top of their head, forcing them to train hard every day! All of their time was used on training because once they paused for a bit, others might overtake them. Therefore, they must keep training nonstop.

But were they really happy? Not necessarily.

But Hong Dali was different. He was a nice person, very kind and caring. He had a good team, a beautiful fiancée, didn’t lack money, and no one could easily bully him too. This was already good enough, wasn’t it?

Now, Li Yang’s side had already started to pick the gemstones. Li Yang didn’t pick himself, the other all picked for him the best gemstones available. Jiang Qianxue found it interesting and helped to pick for him too. Yet, once she sensed the attributes of the gemstones, she was instantly astonished!

This… This is…” Jiang Qianxue’s eyes went wide, she had never seen before gemstones with such attributes!”

“This is a double attribute gemstone!? God, you… How did you manage to get ahold of this!?” No matter how composed Jiang Qianxue was normally, she couldn’t help but be surprised this time. Double attributes did indeed exist in the universe, but most of them only increased one or two attribute points, which wasn’t much use. But the ones here…

God, this was a double attribute gemstone that both added 13 attribute points! What kind of concept was that!?

For the Galaxy Aristocrats, if they had enough wealth, the normal situation was for them to be equipped with a set of +10 gemstones at the most. In that case, when they were fully equipped with a set of 20 gemstones, they would have a bonus of 200 attribute points.

But if the gemstones were double attribute gemstones that increased 13 points each, one gemstone would increase 26 attribute points, a full set of 20 gemstones would mean 520 attribute points! 520!

That’s about two and a half full set equipment! That’s practically cheating, isn’t it!?

Anyone who played online games would know how awesome it was to wear a full set of top-grade equipment. But if someone could wear two and a half set of such equipment, that would definitely be like hacking, right!?

And this wasn’t inclusive of Hong Dali’s halo effect. If this was included, each person would be akin to wearing five sets of equipment.

While Jiang Qianxue was being alarmed, the others instead felt that this was normal. They had seen the miracles that Hong Dali created before, compared to those, this was just small matter—had she seen before a windstorm with a diameter of tens of kilometers? To Hong Dali, that was just but a toy!

“This is only average, there will be more of this stuff next time, look at how shocked you are now.” Hong Dali sniffled and said, “Yup, after Li Yang and Sister Xiaoyi finish choosing, you can choose a set for yourself too.”

To be honest, there wasn’t much significance if Jiang Qianxue wore these gemstones. More importantly, she wasn’t affected by the halo effects, so the effect on her was not as much as the rest. This was quite a pity.

“O… Okay!” Jiang Qianxue blushed. Hong Dali gave her valuable items again, but she was a bit clueless about what she could give him back in return now.

It didn’t felt right to keep accepting his stuff, Jiang Qianxue felt a little melancholy now…

Very quickly, Ling Xiaoyi and Li Yang were both equipped with a full set of double +13 gemstones. Now, both of them had over a thousand bonus attribute points. Coupled with their base attributes, all of their stats exceeded 500! Adding in the Lackey Halo, that would be over 700!

What kind of concept was that? Simply put, a normal Black-level Honorary Aristocrat who was trained in the Secrets of Dark Energy only had base stats of over 500 each.

“Alright, everyone go and pick a set for yourself. As for the rest, send them to the Sauron Auction Center to be auctioned.” Hong Dali sniffled and said, “There’s no much use in having too much of these anyways, just sell the extras for fun.”

“Okay, Young Master!”

Seeing that everyone had quickly picked a set for themselves, Jiang Qianxue felt a bit shy as she picked a set for herself too. After she was done, she stood in front of Hong Dali and slightly blushing, turned her body around in a circle and softly asked, “Dali, do I look good in this?”

The current Jiang Qianxue was wearing a body of platinum-like armor embedded with double attribute gemstones. She really looked more lovable then than flowers now!

Tang Muxin and Li Nianwei saw this from the side. Tang Muxin directly pouted and said, “It’s over, the mission progress is 50% now. This rascal Dali, I promise I won’t beat him to death tonight!”

Li Nianwei covered her mouth and laughed. She gently said, “This is what’s bad about the Young Master, he is too attractive.”

Yup, it was a crime too for a man to be too outstanding…

After everyone had picked, Li Nianwei came up to Hong Dali and softly said, “Young Master, I… I have something to tell you.”

Hm? Sister Nianwei has something to tell me?

Hong Dali felt curious and asked, “What is it? Just tell me directly, there’s no need to be so polite towards me, right?”

“Actually, it isn’t anything important.” Li Nianwei thought for a while and then said, “Young Master, it’s just that I don’t wish to participate in the next season of Sing! Milky Way…”

“Huh!?” Hearing Li Nianwei said that everyone was astonished. “Sister Nianwei, why not? That’s the Sing! Milky Way, you have a high chance of winning. It will be a pity for you to miss this opportunity, isn’t it?”

However, Hong Dali knew that since Li Nianwei said this, she definitely had a reason for it. He instantly asked, “Sister Nianwei, why don’t you want to join the competition anymore?”

“Because you have already come back.” Li Nianwei softly pulled her hair backward and said, “If I continue to participate, I fear that I will create trouble for you. After all, this isn’t Earth. If someone is interested in me, then…”

As she spoke up to this point, the rest instantly understood what she meant.

Li Nianwei was really too outstanding. She was pretty, gentle, and practically didn’t have a single flaw on her. It wasn’t an overstatement to say that as long as she stood on stage, she was the brightest star there, she was definitely a goddess-level person.

This type of woman would easily attract people to fight for her.

Here, at the Milky Way Alliance, things weren’t so bad, Li Nianwei didn’t think that anything troublesome would happen—wasn’t Li Tianxing formidable? But in front of Hong Dali, he was still beaten up till he couldn’t even lift his head, right? But the problem was, compared to the universe, Milky Way could only be considered to be a slightly larger county town.

On top of them, there was still the province-level Dimu Star Sector. What about on top of Dimu Star Sector? Was there anything higher? For example, something that was akin to a country?

Although it would be a good thing if she was able to obtain first place, if this attracted the attention of some people of very high status, it wouldn’t necessarily be a good thing for both her and her Young Master.

Actually, Li Nianwei was a very traditional woman.

When she was studying at the university, she didn’t have a single boyfriend and didn’t let any male touch even her hand before. Her largest dream was to hold a concert one day, be able to sing her songs without any worries, then get married to someone she loved, then just stay at home and take care of her family. Of course, if she had to chance to open a concert successfully, she naturally wouldn’t reject it.

But the problem was, if opening a concert would bring trouble, she would definitely rather not do the concert.

Because the Young Master was her sky. She didn’t wish to cause any trouble to Hong Dali.

“Sister Nianwei, I understand what you mean.” Hong Dali grinned and hugged Li Nianwei, burying his head in her hair and gently said, “Don’t worry, just fulfill your dream as you like. As for the rest—if I can’t even protect a woman, how can I still be called a man?”

Damn, if anyone dares to seek trouble, I will let the Golden Emperor Beetle bite him to death!
