Collecting Rent From All Realms, Even Empresses Must Pay Tribute
Ch. 52 - Lucky Star

Ye Chuan's heart pounded as if it were being squeezed, making him feel breathless.

Spending two hundred thousand yuan like this felt surreal.

Over two hundred constitutions were now in his backpack.

"All in!" Since the money was already spent, there was no point in hesitating. Ye Chuan fused all the low-grade constitutions!

Going all in was a sign of wisdom!

Supreme-Grade, come forth!

All the low-quality constitutions had been synthesized, and along with his existing ones, he had five Gold-Grade constitutions in total.

Golden light flashed, and the icons trembled violently!

"Synthesize!"

…

[Congratulations! You have obtained a High-Grade Lightning Profound Constitution. Added to backpack.]

A few minutes later, Ye Chuan sat on the edge of his bed, staring blankly at the message, his face numb.

Two hundred thousand yuan gone, just like that.

He still had seventy thousand left.

But it was a huge loss. He had lost his Azure Dragon Saint Body, which was a very useful constitution.

Turning into a little Azure Dragon, little Azure Dragon.

His money was gone, and his good constitution was gone.

Ye Chuan's rational mind screamed at him to stop spending, to cut his losses.

Forget it, he'd stop for now. This was enough.

Just as he thought this, a window popped up—

[Congratulations! You have received a rare reward: Significantly increased probability of drawing a Top-Grade quality constitution!

Time limit: 59 minutes 59 seconds]

Ye Chuan: "..."

Should he…

Just draw one more Top-Grade constitution?

As for Supreme, forget it, he'd leave that for later.

"It's still dangerous out there. What if something happens without the Azure Dragon Saint Body?" Ye Chuan pondered for a while, then spent another hundred thousand.

A hundred draws.

Golden light flashed, and to Ye Chuan's surprise, he got two Top-Grade constitutions!

A double win!

[Congratulations! You have obtained the Lone Star Constitution. Added to backpack Gold]

[Congratulations! You have obtained the Profound Mysterious Dao Body. Added to backpack Gold]

You again?!

Ye Chuan felt his vision darken. The familiar names told him everything without even needing to check their descriptions. 

One was useless, and the other would make him a lonely hermit. Neither was of any use to him.

He synthesized the remaining ninety-plus base materials, hoping for another gold.

But in the end, Ye Chuan stared at the useless junk in his backpack, unable to even synthesize a single gold constitution!

Ye Chuan laughed in exasperation.

He was laughing at himself, feeling trapped by this app.

The worst part was spending hundreds of thousands of yuan with zero improvement.

He placed the Lone Star Constitution and the Profound Mysterious Dao Body together again and watched as they synthesized—

[Congratulations! You have obtained a High-Grade Fire Profound Constitution. Added to backpack.]

Surprise!

Oh, it was an old friend.

Ye Chuan facepalmed and chuckled, his laughter filled with helplessness.

Looking at the countdown timer, Ye Chuan gritted his teeth and spent another two hundred thousand!

He was going to drain the prize pool today!

…

Half an hour later, Ye Chuan was expressionless.

Because now, only two constitutions remained in his backpack.

[Item: Lone Star Constitution]

[Item: High-Grade Fire Profound Constitution]

Back to square one, and a lonely hermit.

With five hundred thousand left in his wallet, Ye Chuan didn't want to spend any more, but he was unwilling to give up.

After all, he had obtained the High-Grade Fire Profound Constitution from his initial six-yuan purchase.

He was truly unwilling to accept this.

He wanted to spend another hundred thousand.

Ye Chuan pinched the bridge of his nose. Just as he was about to recharge, he accidentally swiped up to the home screen.

His gaze fell on the wallpaper, a photo of him and Luo Xi at their high school graduation.

Ye Chuan glanced at the time, then opened his messaging app and made a video call to Luo Xi.

A few seconds later, the call connected.

"What's up, ChuanChuan, calling me on video?" Luo Xi was still working at the barbecue stall. The background was noisy, and she seemed to be serving customers. 

"Can't sleep? Want to come over for a barbecue? Daddy's treat."

"Beautiful Luo Xi, if you had five hundred thousand yuan, what would you do with it?" Ye Chuan hesitated for a moment, then asked.

Luo Xi on the other end clearly froze, surprised by the strange question.

“Five hundred thousand? That's a lot! If I had that much money, I would definitely take you and my mom to a better hospital, and then buy some nice clothes, hee hee."

"I'd save the rest and earn interest."

"Isn't that unambitious?"

Ye Chuan continued, "What if… you lost that money?"

"Waaah, I would probably cry for the rest of my life," Luo Xi couldn't even imagine that scenario.

Ye Chuan fell silent, his restlessness instantly calming down.

"That's pretty unambitious. I'm hanging up." Completely calm now, Ye Chuan simply fused the High-Grade Fire Profound Constitution and the Lone Star Constitution.

He wouldn't spend any more money, he'd leave it to fate. He didn't want to see these two constitutions again.

In the next moment, a sudden red glow made his finger freeze.

[Congratulations! You have obtained the Chaotic Indestructible Body. Added to backpack Red]

He stared at the message in disbelief, then checked the synthesis probability.

The chance of synthesizing a Supreme constitution from a High-Grade and a Top-Grade one—

0.5%!

Huh?

"What's wrong, ChuanChuan?" Luo Xi, seeing Ye Chuan's flushed face, asked curiously. 

"What are you looking at? Don't tell me you're watching something weird while video calling me?"

Ye Chuan took a deep breath, his gaze focused, his shoulders trembling slightly.

Luo Xi: "?!"

The next moment, the call ended abruptly.

Luo Xi's eyes widened, staring at her phone. She gritted her teeth. "How dare you! Doing something so… Even if you have needs, I can…"

"Luo Xi, come help out," a middle-aged man called from the barbecue stall. "Why are you standing there?"

"Oh, coming."

"Why is your face so red?"

"It's too hot."

…

[Item: Chaotic Indestructible Body (Supreme)

A body formed from the primordial chaos of the universe, possesses the ability to devour all forms of energy, immune to most spells, laws, and causality…

Spiritual root automatically converted to Chaotic Spiritual Root due to the influence of the constitution.

Cannot be unequipped after equipping. This constitution defies the Heavenly Dao; every significant increase in strength will trigger a Heavenly Tribulation.

This constitution can be further upgraded (Unknown)]

Back in his room, Ye Chuan stared at the description, repeatedly confirming it, before realizing he wasn't dreaming.

Was Luo Xi his lucky star?

Looking at the incredibly powerful description of the constitution, Ye Chuan hesitated.

Because—

It couldn't be unequipped.

It would trigger Heavenly Tribulations.

"But if I'm immune to laws and spells, I wouldn't be afraid of Heavenly Tribulations, right?" Ye Chuan suddenly realized this.

And another thing, the spiritual energy in this world was weak, would there even be Heavenly Tribulations?

[Equip?]

Ye Chuan extended his hand and equipped the constitution.

Just do it.
