Feng Xiaoyu watched the flames at Lin Yu's fingertips. Despite her strong reluctance to believe it, she had to face reality.
He had succeeded!
He had managed to convert energy solely through her explanation!
This step had stumped so many people. Many university graduates couldn't achieve it, yet she had succeeded!
Wait, it seemed like she was the reason for his success! Haha!!!
Feng Xiaoyu put her hands on her hips, looking smug and saying, "Well, not bad. As expected from a great teacher and a brilliant student. Even though you're my worst student, don't be discouraged. Keep working hard. Only when you've converted all attributes will it be over!"
Seeing her like this, Lin Yu smiled for the first time.
But there was no mockery in his smile; it was concern. "You're in desperate need of money?"
Upon hearing "money," Feng Xiaoyu's eyes lit up instantly. Her large eyes blinked, as if stars were twinkling within them, making her look incredibly cute.
She nodded vigorously, "Yes! Are you going to repay your teacher?"
Looking at her, Lin Yu smiled and said, "You helped me convert energy, so of course I should repay you. How many Star Coins do you need?"
Lin Yu had completed many missions in the past few days and had accumulated quite a bit of Star Coins, over a million.
He was considered somewhat wealthy now. At least in Ji City, he could buy five large houses.
He was happy today, and everything was going smoothly. He looked at everything favorably. If the other party wanted money, he would give it. It was just a worldly possession, and he didn't care much about it. Having enough to spend was fine.
Feng Xiaoyu fell silent for a moment, then abandoning her cute demeanor, she said seriously, "I need... this much!"
She held up three fingers and waved them in front of Lin Yu.
Lin Yu said, "I don't have three million, but I can give you thirty thousand!"
Huh?
Feng Xiaoyu was stunned. She was about to say she wanted thirty thousand, but a little devil in her heart stopped her.
Don't say it!
At this moment, Lin Yu had already opened his wristband and said, "Tell me your bank account number, and I'll transfer it to you!"
Feng Xiaoyu was both joyous and surprised. She gave him her bank account number.
A moment later, Lin Yu put down his wristband and said, "Alright, the money has been transferred. We're even!"
Feng Xiaoyu indeed found that the money had been transferred. Her heart pounded with excitement. With this, she would have enough money to pay for her sister's medical treatment.
Thinking of her seriously ill sister at home, she almost wept, looking like she was about to cry.
Lin Yu saw her expression and thought he hadn't given her enough. But he truly didn't have three million Star Coins. So, he promised, "You want three million Star Coins, right? I don't have that much now, but don't worry, I'll transfer three million to you within a month!"
Feng Xiaoyu immediately said, "That's not it. I don't need three million!"
Lin Yu was in a good mood and wasn't particularly concerned about money as long as he had enough to spend. Hearing that it wasn't three million, he wasn't too bothered. "Thirty million? I'll transfer it to you within a year. You've enlightened me and greatly increased my strength, which cannot be measured by money. I hope you can give me some time!"
Feng Xiaoyu stamped her feet anxiously, but Lin Yu, having just completed his energy conversion, was in a hurry and wanted to go home to create new skills. So, he said, "Alright, I have urgent matters to attend to. See you later!"
Lin Yu turned and left. His hurried demeanor meant he soon disappeared from Feng Xiaoyu's sight.
She stood rooted to the spot, stomping her feet furiously, and shouted, "I don't want thirty million, I want thirty thousand! Come back!"
Unfortunately, Lin Yu was long gone and couldn't hear her voice.
Feng Xiaoyu returned home, pouting. An older girl in a wheelchair said, "You're back, Xiaoyu!"
"Sister, I have great news!"
Feng Xiaoyun smiled, "What good news could it be? You look so happy. Did you find money?"
Feng Xiaoyu pouted, "Hmph, am I that greedy for money? I met a great benefactor today... no, I met a very kind person and earned thirty thousand Star Coins!"
Feng Xiaoyun's face changed drastically upon hearing this, and she asked angrily, "Xiaoyu, did you...?"
Feng Xiaoyu stamped her foot, annoyed. "Sister, what are you thinking? This Xiaoyu is a self-respecting person. How could I do such a thing? I earned the money by teaching someone."
Then, she recounted what had happened that day to her sister.
After listening, Feng Xiaoyun understood. Lin Yu had coincidentally been enlightened by her, finally breaking through a barrier and achieving a sudden realization.
She could understand Lin Yu's feelings. After all, the excitement of improving one's strength was something other emotions couldn't compare to.
Let alone thirty thousand, many people would willingly give three million.
"Sister, do you think that person is silly? I clearly wanted thirty thousand, but he insisted on giving me thirty thousand. I didn't even get a chance to explain, and he insisted I wanted three million, even saying he'd gather it within a month. I was shocked. He thought I was unsatisfied and wanted to give me thirty million, also saying he'd gather it within a year."
"I think he's just bragging!"
"But with this thirty thousand, Sister's illness can be treated!"
The thought of her sister's illness made her heart ache to the point of suffocation.
Five years ago, a beast tide had poisoned Feng Xiaoyun, causing her legs to lose all sensation.
At that time, the treatment cost three thousand Star Coins. But with both parents gone, how could the two sisters afford that much? In the end, it had to be postponed.
She had been confined to a wheelchair for five years. Looking at her sister's pale face, Feng Xiaoyu's eyes welled up with tears.
"Sister, let's go get treatment!"
Feng Xiaoyun stroked Feng Xiaoyu's head and nodded, "Let's go!"
She also longed to regain her ability to walk. However, after five years, it was still uncertain if her legs could be cured.
Meanwhile.
Lin Yu returned home and immediately began creating skills.
He conjured twenty clones, and the room was instantly filled with people, leaving no space to even stand.
Looking at the crowded house, Lin Yu had the idea of buying a new place.
"Brothers, let's work hard together!"
Even though he knew they were just clones, extensions of his will, he still shouted, treating it as encouragement to himself.
He closed his eyes and communicated with the energy within him, converting it into fire attributes.
The fiery red energy filled his senses. He immediately recalled one clone and, sensing the changes within him, a stream of information appeared in his mind.
Lin Yu did not receive the memory of this clone. Then, he silently recited and released another clone.
The fire energy in his body surged, and the speed of this surge grew faster and faster.
Lin Yu discovered that under this state, releasing clone skills was much more difficult than in the original energy state.
He clearly felt dizzy and empty within.
Fatigue and hunger swept through his body, leaving him utterly depleted.
Suddenly, a fiery red mark appeared in his mind.
Then, this mark glowed brightly, and Lin Yu opened his eyes.
Before him stood a different clone.
This person looked exactly like Lin Yu, but his hair was fiery red, his clothes were fiery red, and even his eyes were fiery red.
Lin Yu was overjoyed!
Flame Clone!
It was a success!
