Chapter 10: One Trouble After Another!

 Ling Yuyan widened her eyes in shock when she saw so many improvements shown by her current status window, and she immediately felt overjoyed.

First of all, her lifespan had increased by five years from 52 to 57 thanks to [Marrow Cleansing Pill]. It meant she could live until she reached 57 years old right now.

That was only the beginning. If she kept improving her martial realm, her lifespan would increase more and more in the future.

Especially if she managed to get [Life and Death Seal Condensing Method] and successfully practiced it, her lifespan would increase dramatically, and she might be able to live hundreds of years while always looking young.

That was the main reason why Ling Yuyan coveted [Life and Death Seal Condensing Method] so badly, and she had already determined to get it from the protagonist, Lin Ming Tian.

Ling Yuyan nodded in satisfaction while muttering: "My martial practice is also improving very fast. At this rate, I might be able to reach the Martial Apprentice realm in a week or even faster than that."

Even though the improvement looked unbelievably fast, but it was all actually thanks to Dream Space.

Because the time in Dream Space was ten times faster than outside, it would mean Ling Yuyan's avatar would have practiced for more than 70 days in Dream Space after a week.

"And I even get a Gold-Grade Talent, 300 Plundering Points, and a Golden-tier Lottery Chance~! Just how lucky am I~! What bountiful rewards~!" Ling Yuyan murmured as she chuckled even more happily.

"I still have more [Marrow Cleansing Pills] if only I can do it again, then I will surely... Ugh, let's just forget it... I will definitely never do it again." Ling Yuyan's body shuddered in fear when she recalled the unbearable pain she had suffered before.

Ling Yuyan shook her head and decided to check the effect of her newly awakened Gold-Grade Talent first.

------------------------------------------

[Martial Genius (Gold-Grade Talent)]

[Description: You are born to practice martial arts, so what are you waiting for?! Stop reading this useless description and go to practice martial arts now~!]

[Effect 1: The speed of improvement in martial arts training increased by 100%.]

[Effect 2: Comprehension in all martial arts increased by 100%.]

------------------------------------------

Ling Yuyan's pink lips twitched slightly when she read the description, but she immediately ignored it since she felt very satisfied with the effects of this [Martial Genius].

This [Martial Genius] might not be as good as An Yue's Diamond Grade Talent, [Child of Darkness], which could increase the practice speed of all Darkness attribute techniques by 300%.

But the bright side was that this [Martial Genius] did not have any attribute restrictions, so Ling Yuyan would still get all the effects of this [Martial Genius] no matter what attribute martial arts she practiced.

There was also a Golden-tier Lottery Chance...

After pondering it carefully for a while, Ling Yuyan decided to use it later after she accumulated more Plundering Points to pull for another Golden-tier Lottery.

It was because Ling Yuyan felt that she had spent all of her luck to survive the life-threatening effect of [Marrow Cleansing Pill] last night, so she thought she might not be able to get any good thing if she used this Golden-tier Lottery Chance right now.

Just after Ling Yuyan tidied her appearance and prepared to go out of this unoccupied guest room, she suddenly thought of a very huge problem!

"Damn, how could I forget about it?! My current appearance is too dazzling and eye-catching! If I go out like this to meet everyone, there will surely be a lot of troubles that come to me later!" Ling Yuyan exclaimed in an anxious tone.

It should be known that the main reason Ling Yuyan's current master, Wang Qingling, hated Wang Meng Yuan so much because Wang Meng Yuan was more beautiful than her.

If she faced Wang Qingling with her current look, she would definitely be bullied by Wang Qingling even more!

Not to mention, she would be targeted by the perverted male members of the Wang Family!

There were quite a lot of Wang Family members living in this huge mansion, so it was not strange that some of them were crooked and perverted.

Even Wang Meng Yuan was harassed quite often by them in the book, but of course, she immediately retaliated fiercely against them.

Ling Yuyan was only a small maid here, so she surely could not act so willfully like Wang Meng Yuan.

Not only that, she would certainly be interrogated fiercely by many female members of the Wang Family because which women did not want to look so beautiful overnight, right?!

Should she tell them that she became like this after consuming [Marrow Cleansing Pill] last night?

Then how to explain where a little maid without any background like her obtains such a priceless precious pill like [Marrow Cleansing Pill]?

"This is so troublesome~!" Ling Yuyan sighed as she frowned deeply in frustration.

When Ling Yuyan's brain was almost fried, and she could not think of any feasible solution for it, An Yue suddenly appeared out of nowhere while saying in a reassuring tone: "Don't worry, Sister Yuyan! Leave it to me~!"

An Yue told Ling Yuyan to undress until she was completely naked, then she smeared Ling Yuyan's entire slender body with some kind of lotion.

That lotion changed Ling Yuyan's very fair silky smooth skin to become slightly tanned and rougher like before she consumed the [marrow Cleansing Pill].

An Yue also took out a set of makeup tools from her [Shadow Empress Ring] and began to change Ling Yuyan's current pretty face to her previous delicate appearance.

After An Yue helped Ling Yuyan wear her maid outfit again, Ling Yuyan carefully observed her current disguised appearance with a mirror.

"This is incredible~! An Yue, your makeup skill is really miraculous!" Ling Yuyan exclaimed in shock and disbelief.

An Yue replied casually: "Disguising skill is one of the most important skills for the assassin. But you must be careful with water, Sister Yuyan. If you got splashed with water or fell into the pool, your disguise would be erased."

Ling Yuyan nodded her head to show that she understood.

Actually, Ling Yuyan's current figure had also changed from the previous thin like a wooden plank to becoming more curvaceous.

But everyone would not think too much about it since Ling Yuyan could say that she had eaten a lot lately.

An Yue hid back in Ling Yuyan's shadow while Ling Yuyan went out from the unoccupied guest room and headed to the canteen to eat breakfast.

Unfortunately, Ling Yuyan came a bit too late, and the food was already gone.

Ling Yuyan could only helplessly let An Yue secretly steal some food from the kitchen again.

After eating some delicious meat buns and sweet cakes for breakfast until she was full, Ling Yuyan hastily headed to Wang Qingling's room.

The other maids were already waiting in front of Wang Qingling's room.

When Ling Yuyan felt strange about why these maids did not wake up Wang Qingling yet, then she immediately remembered that it was actually her turn today!

Ling Yuyan could only silently pray in her heart that Wang Qingling would not throw a tantrum at her today.

Luckily, Wang Qingling's mood was still extremely good today, so she really did not slap or whip Ling Yuyan after Ling Yuyan woke her up.

It seems Wang Qingling was still gloating at Wang Meng Yuan's misfortune until now.

Ling Yuyan really hoped that Wang Qingling's gloating and happy mood would last for a very very very long time, so she would not bully or make things difficult for her and the other maids anymore.

Unfortunately, Ling Yuyan's simple wish was bound to be unfulfilled...

After Wang Qingling finished eating her breakfast, she urged all of the maids to go out of her room and wait outside, since she wanted to be alone in her room for a while.

Who knew that after one hour or so, Wang Qingling actually called Ling Yuyan to enter her room alone!

Ling Yuyan instantly felt very uncomfortable as if something bad would happen to her soon.

'What the heck is wrong with this villainess?! It should be impossible for her to see through my disguise, right? Urgh, I really don't want to enter that hellish room alone.' Ling Yuyan timidly thought in her mind.

Despite her reluctance, Ling Yuyan did not have any other choice than to obey Wang Qingling's order and entered the room alone.

Inside the room, Wang Qingling had already waited for her with a joyous smile on her beautiful face.

Wang Qingling gave a sealed letter to Ling Yuyan and said: "Send this letter to the Crown Prince right now."

"Ah? But Miss I..." Ling Yuyan murmured timidly in great reluctance.

She was only a little maid, so how could she possibly meet with an important figure such as the Crown Prince so easily?!

If she gave this letter to the Crown Prince's guards instead, what should she do if the letter did not reach the Crown Prince's hands later?!

When Ling Yuyan wanted to try to refuse it, Wang Qingling already glared viciously at her as if she would beat her up to death immediately if she dare to refuse the order.

"I understood, Miss~! I will definitely do my best to send this letter to the Crown Prince~!" Ling Yuyan uttered in one breath as she took the letter from Wang Qingling and hastily ran out of the room.
