Chapter 736: Chen Xinlu Brazenly Asks for a Token
Feng Tianlan turned around and said coldly, “Is anything the matter?”
“What about us?”
Feng Tianlan looked at her, puzzled . “What is it?”
“The Bailan Alliance’s Honorary Guest Token . ” Chen Xinlu glanced at the token in Xiao Xiao’s hand . “We all journeyed together . You’ve given one to them . What about us?”
“…”
Everyone was stunned when they heard Chen Xinlu’s words . They turned to look at her with disbelief in their eyes . Was she really begging for the Bailan Alliance’s Honorary Guest Token?
“Lu’er . ” Shi Yiqing felt thoroughly embarrassed . How could she feel comfortable asking for this?
Chen Xinyi’s complexion paled, and she lowered her voice and said, “Little sister . ”
On the other hand, Shi Moning didn’t say a word . He gaped at Chen Xinlu as he watched her make a fool of herself . She brazenly wanted a token . If she could get it, it’d benefit them . But if she couldn’t obtain it, she would’ve only embarrassed herself . Therefore, he simply needed to watch the show unfold to see what happened .
Feng Tianlan stared at Chen Xinlu amusedly . “You’re asking me for it?”
“Shouldn’t I be?” Chen Xinlu seemed convinced in herself . When she saw Chen Xinyi tug on her clothes as a signal to stop, she glared at her . “You useless trash . I’m asking for your sake . Don’t make trouble . ”
It was fine to not be able to conquer a man, but she had actually lost to another man . Now, she even wanted to stop her from asking for the token? What was the point in keeping her pride? Was her pride worth more than the Bailan Alliance’s Honorary Guest Token?
“Why must I give one to you?” Feng Tianlan found this even more comical . She was asking for a favor and yet she’d asked for one so demandingly . This had completely refreshed her understanding of what it meant to be thick-skinned .

“We protected you from Kaiyang City all the way to Lin’an City . Even though we didn’t make any contributions or do any menial work, it’s only reasonable that you give us a token as remuneration for our services . How can you favor them and give them a token and not us?” Chen Xinlu spoke with such great conviction, as though it were completely wrong of Feng Tianlan to withhold a token from her .
“Master Shen, don’t listen to her…”
Chen Xinlu interrupted Chen Xinyi’s words with a grunt . “Shut up!”
Chen Xinyi and Shi Yiqing glanced at her . They covered their faces with their hands and turned to the side, completely ashamed . They truly didn’t want to acknowledge that they knew her .
“A remuneration for protecting me all the way into the city?” Feng Tianlan found this amusing . “In Kaiyang City, who rescued you? It was us . Then, speaking of remuneration, don’t you have to pay me? Oh, and in the suburbs, we also saved you . For saving you twice, don’t you have to pay me double?”
Even though they’d been targeted because of her, she’d still rescued them, yet she wanted to ask for a reward?
Her reasoning was comical!
Chen Xinyi’s complexion gradually changed . She responded with a hint of awkwardness and guilt, “But I didn’t ask you to save me . ” Hence, there was no need for them to repay her .
Feng Tianlan burst into laughter . “Let’s put aside the fact that I didn’t even ask you to escort me . However, even if I had, exactly who escorted who during this journey?”
When Chen Xinlu’s eyes fell on the Bailan Alliance Honorary Guest Token crafted from special spiritual jade, she pushed on self-righteously . “For this journey, you should give us what you gave her . Otherwise, you’re discriminating against us and showing favoritism . It’s immoral . Furthermore, we were targeted by assassins because of your man . So, you need to compensate us . ”

If remuneration wasn’t possible, then the token should just be treated as a form of compensation .
“Little sister, you can’t…”
Chen Xinlu glared at her . “Shut up . ” Unable to accomplish anything yet always making trouble . How dare she speak up!
“…” Mei’er and the rest were rendered speechless by her . They were completely flabbergasted by her antics and couldn’t believe that she was so brazenly seeking a favor from their savior . Was this what they called being a “white-eyed wolf?”
What’s more, they were sisters, yet why were they so completely different? Were they even biologically related?

Dungeon Core Chat Room.
This is a slower-paced "experiment and dungeon building" web novel that tries to use the idea of peer-to-peer communication with Dungeon Cores instead of Dungeon to slave monster communication to break up the detailed dungeon building. Rank 1 description: (minimum met for system initialization...detailed description as follows) Each race was given a system by the gods to make up for their shortcomings and balance their place in this world. Humans: Abysmally bad at understanding and using magic unable to use more than the lowest of magic were given the "Skill System" magic in the form of premade skills with use, study, and mastery tied to experience. Elves: Intuitively understand magic and have long lives leading to vast knowledge and skill in their chosen fields. However, as a species, they have nearly zero sex drive and less than low fertility, so they were gifted the "World Tree System" with experience gained through the care of natural areas – gifting the chance of children to increase their numbers without dirty copulation. All “natural” or “wild” monsters are given an "Evolution system" designed around killing and consuming as many creatures as possible, slowly increasing strength and, at thresholds, allowing mutations to alter them multiple times. Dungeon cores are different. Unlike humans, they can see, manipulate and live off mana. Unlike Elves, they naturally crystallize after extended periods of time in high mana level areas. However, they cannot easily move or communicate and typically go insane without companionship. As a species other than the odd eccentric they are unimaginative. Brute forcing solutions without the drive to truly innovate. Thus they have been gifted with the "Dungeon Connection System" a magical version of the internet accessible by their peers that allows them to barter and sell: bait, traps, monsters, and knowledge, as well as entertain each other with “adventure streams” using exciting recorded battles and humorous reels of arrogant chumps biting off more than they can chew to often fatal effects. This is the casual story of a dungeon unluckily spawned far from potential adventurers forced to innovate beyond its peers to find its place in this world. Rank 2 Description: Justification. I've been on a dungeon core kick for months and while I love the genre – it's sparse with entries. Often the forced conflict gets repetitive and frantic solving of threats "power levels" the protagonist to god levels to progress the plot – taking away the nice steady progression fantasy I'm looking for. (Progression in this story is linked to how strong of monsters/traps/whatever he can create not his "level"...this is demonstrated by some of his newer monsters beating his older monsters not with discrete "this monster has 10 attack this one has 40") Additionally, the focus on 3rd parties with their drama takes away from the reason I’m reading dungeon core novels in the first place – I'm looking for magical crafting, experimentation and kingdom building – not defence from higher and higher levelled enemies looking to steal/destroy/control the MC. This novel is kind of just me writing the story I wish I could read. I like thinking about the experimentation that can be done in fantasy settings using 'mana' as an excuse to make up rules and try to keep them internally consistent. IE once I define how a rule works, I'm going to commit to keeping it – no breaking hard truths I've given when it's convenient, even if it backs me into a corner. Hopefully, that should make the story interesting to read even if it's SOL and less action-oriented. There will be problems to solve and a clear progression in strength (of created monsters and knowledge) however due to not wanting to force conflict for the sake of conflict the general theme will be closer to slice of life with few action sequences and no overarching goal so please keep that in mind when picking this up as the genre is not for everyone. Finally, I have a clear goal of what I want from this story (not an endless romp but a series of arcs and then a conclusion that's a couple of dozen medium-sized chapters long) I want to commit to finishing it or at least bringing it to a point of rest. I hate all the engaging stories that stop with a “hiatus” indefinitely so in the event I lose motivation I'll work to end this even if the ending becomes rushed/unsatisfying just to give a sense of closure. I’m planning on including several polls in terms of direction and taking feedback heavily into account if I get enough readers (but may choose to ignore it if it deviates too far from the direction I want to take this as in feedback like: “The MC needs a cartoonishly evil arch-enemy that wants to enslave him and force the mc to pump out magic items” or “the MC needs to make a body and learn teleportation then live with humans” will get shot down without consideration.)
