Chapter 58: A Great Misunderstanding

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Sitting cross-legged in the yard, Yang Ling noticed that the green energy in his body had become thicker and richer. If it were to be compared to a long green vine in the past, it was now a raging green river, completely fused with his blood red Wizard Energy.

So the green life force can automatically heal injuries?

Thinking back to the strange effects the green fog had on the Magical Beasts in the forest, Yang Ling had a thought. He doubtfully inflicted a small wound on his right hand. As expected, the wound stopped bleeding and quickly recovered.

In his joy, Yang Ling tried to determine the extent of the differences brought about by the life force. He had only been cultivating for a short amount of time, but he felt that the Wizard Power was circulating faster than usual. He could more easily absorb the spiritual energy in the yard, making his cultivation even easier. At the same time, it did not require much effort to enter and exit the mysterious Wizard’s Pagoda, as if his mental strength had also improved by leaps and bounds.

Within the space of the Wizard’s Pagoda, the Withered Tree Warriors had transformed into large, tall trees, while the Evil Eyes and Horned Bee Beasts were greedily devouring the white fog released by the Wizard’s Pagoda.

There was now a vast grassland within the space of the Wizard’s Pagoda. The snow-white Unicorn was playing with the little Unicorn on a field. When it saw Yang Ling, the little Unicorn ran over like the wind. Ever since Yang Ling had tamed this Unicorn, the adorable creature had been especially close to Yang Ling.

After riding the Unicorn around the vast grassland, Yang Ling felt as though the space had expanded several times. Faintly, he felt that this was due to the green life force within his body. It was as if the stronger the green life force, the faster he could cultivate the Wizard Mantra, and with the rapid increase in his Wizard Power, the strange space that contained the Wizard’s Pagoda would become larger.

“Sir, sir...”

Just as Yang Ling was prepared to more closely examine the space that contained the Wizard’s Pagoda, a faint sound approached him. He opened his eyes to see the old butler standing by the door, drenched in sweat.

“Sir, the young ladies you need...” Murbaqi was a little hesitant.

“Oh, what’s the matter? You can’t find enough?”

After wiping the sweat off his forehead, Murbaqi said nervously, “No, sir, it’s not that I can’t find anyone, it’s that there are too many of them. They’re going to destroy the gates!”

Destroy the gates?

Yang Ling doubtfully shook his head. It was only after Murbaqi explained that he understood what was going on.

After the news that Yang Ling was searching for beautiful ladies had spread, the entire population of Wissen Town had broken into a commotion. Yang Ling had money and power, and he was incredibly suave. He had long been the idol of many young ladies. They were more than willing to become Yang Ling’s lover without any status, or even his personal maid. Furthermore, Yang Ling had not married. A personal maid might someday become his true love.

He was a bachelor, a very eligible bachelor!

In the eyes of the townspeople, Yang Ling was born to a rich family. Marrying their daughter to him was akin to obtaining a well of fortune. The dowry itself would probably be enough to feed them for the rest of their lives. Thus, they had all brought their daughters to attend Yang Ling’s selection event.

“Sir, perhaps... Is finding a beautiful personal maid for yourself in this manner a little too hasty?”

Having served as a butler for a rich family for many years, Murbaqi was rather experienced. He felt that Yang Ling was disgracing his noble status by making such an unprepared selection. If he were to do things properly, he would set aside at least a month for the necessary preparations.

Finding a beautiful personal maid for myself?

Yang Ling almost fainted when he realized that the old butler had misunderstood his intentions. “Murbaqi, what are you talking about? The inn is about to open for business; I merely wanted to hire a few women for the service staff!”

Female service staff for the inn?

Murbaqi did not know what to think. This misunderstanding was unexpected, too unexpected. He had never thought about this possibility when he heard Yang Ling say in front of others that he wanted to choose some beautiful ladies to wait on people.

“Sir, then... What are we going to do with the townspeople outside?” Thinking about the crowd of passionate townspeople, Murbaqi swallowed bitterly.

“Deal with it at your discretion, and find me tonight after you gathered the candidates!”

The power of the masses was terrifying. Yang Ling was not willing to subject himself to that kind of horror, so he fully intended to use Murbaqi as a shield.

Yang Ling turned to leave. After shaking his head and letting out a bitter smile, the old butler hesitated for a moment and said, “Sir, there’s another matter. Miss Sofia, she...”

“Oh, what happened to Sofia?”

“Miss Sofia rushed over from the elf tribe early in the morning. When she heard that you were choosing... She, she cried and ran out on the spot!” This misunderstanding had gotten too big. Murbaqi felt a little dizzy. He steeled himself and said, “Fearing for her safety, I asked Casey to chase after her with a group of guards, but there’s been no news from them as of yet. We only found a note on the Gryphon!”

The note Sofia left behind was simple, only containing a few words in her exquisite handwriting: “Yang Ling, I hate you.”

“That silly girl!” Yang Ling summoned the Unicorn and leaped onto its back. “Murbaqi, organize search parties and look for Sofia’s whereabouts, quick!”

He had not finished his sentence when he raced off. The townspeople blocking the gate only saw a white flash fly past their heads. They had not come to their senses when Yang Ling disappeared.

Sofia did not have many friends in Wissen Town. She would not go anywhere other than Wissen Castle or the Evening Primrose Bar. Could she have headed straight back to the elf tribe in her sadness?

Looking at the setting sun, Yang Ling creased his brows. It was late in the evening, and the Magical Beasts in Terras Forest would be in their most active state. Even a Great Swordsman would not dare barge into the forest at this time. With Sofia’s weak physical abilities, she would definitely be in danger if she encountered a ferocious Magical Beast.

Without the Gryphon to carry her, Sofia would not be able to walk too far into the forest given her physical abilities. Thus, Yang Ling headed straight for the outer edges of the forest near Wissen Town. But after making a few rounds, he did not find any traces of Sofia. Instead, he encountered a few thief-like people acting suspiciously.

“Brave warriors, have you seen an elf lady walking past this place?” Without any leads, all Yang Ling could do was ask the people before him. He might be able to obtain some information from them.

“Oh, it’s you, Sir Yang. I am Argus’s cousin. My name is Arkas.” After being startled by Yang Ling’s sudden appearance, a young man with an olive green complexion reacted, taking the opportunity to make friends with Yang Ling.

“Oh, what a coincidence!” Yang Ling forced a smile, then continued, “Arkas, did you see an elf lady walking past the area?”

“Let me think...” Arkas deliberated for a moment before saying, “When I was taking a nap under a large tree in the afternoon, I heard a lady scream. When I walked over to take a look, I saw a beautiful elf with pointy ears crawling out of a pit. She cried as she ran into the forest, not knowing that she dropped her handkerchief. Could she be the person you are looking for?”

Taking the handkerchief from Arkas’s hands, Yang Ling gave it a gentle sniff. There was a faint fragrance unique to Sofia on the handkerchief. He had gotten lucky and obtained some information!

“Arkas, take your brothers to my butler, and he will give you some money as a reward!”

After some formalities, Yang Ling quickly left on the Unicorn. It was much easier for him now that he knew the general direction Sofia had gone. At the same time, giving a few crystal coins to those unemployed bums was a way of giving his thanks. Those types of people were usually up to no good, but they often had good sources of information. He might be able to use them in the future.
