“Huh? That’s strange… Xiao Tianquan did not join the chat the whole day and now when the Red Envelope Snatching session is about to begin, he private messages me? I wonder if something’s wrong?”

Chen Xiaobei checked the message immediately.

Xiao Tianquan: God Chen! Something big happened!

Chen Xiaobei: What is it? 😱

Xiao Tianquan: I was out on duty with God Erlang for the whole day and we just came back from the Great Hall. Shen Gongpao came right after.

Chen Xiaobei: Shen Gongpao? What scheme is that idiot planning next?

Xiao Tianquan: He came to take the Bad Luck Charm from God Erlang!

Chen Xiaobei: Bad Luck Charm? The Mid-Autumn Red Envelope Snatching session is about to start soon. Is he going to use that Bad Luck Charm on me?”

Xiao Tianquan: You guessed it right! Because Shaoba Xingjun is not in the Heavenly Realm, there are very few Bad Luck Charms going around. Lately, Shen Gongpao has been running here and there gathering all the charms to be used against you!

Chen Xiaobei: Searching for all Bad Luck Charms? Does that mean he’ll be using more than one Bad Luck Charm?

Xiao Tianquan: Yes! I overheard Shen Gongpao telling God Erlang that he had found 30 pieces of Bad Luck Charms. He is going to use all of it on you so that you won’t be getting any Red Envelopes at all.

Chen Xiaobei: Wow! What the hell, wow! That asshole is seriously throwing me into the deep end! Thirty pieces of Bad Luck Charms! All to be used on me! I won’t be getting shit tonight!

Xiao Tianquan: Oh, it’s not just the Red Envelopes! For a long time in the coming days, you’ll suffer from terrible luck! You will have to endlessly collect merit points to recover your luck!

Chen Xiaobei: F*ck! This Shen Gongpao is one sly son of a bitch! I don’t mind not getting other Red Envelopes but my sifu is going to send me one today. If I don’t get it, it’ll be a complete waste of my sifu’s effort!

Xiao Tianquan: What? The Prime of Tongtian will be giving out Red Envelopes? He will be giving out items that are at least Divine Tier! If other people got their hands on your Red Envelope, it would be a great loss for you!

Chen Xiaobei: No! If I can’t have it, then no one else can! I better tell sifu not to send me the Red Envelopes tonight!

Chen Xiaobei sent a few messages to his sifu consecutively but there was no reply.

“Shit!” Chen Xiaobei was growing more anxious by the minute. “If sifu doesn’t see the messages and sends the Red Envelope out, it’s over for me!”

As Xiao Tianquan had said, the Red Envelopes that the Prime of Tongtian sent were normally at least DIvine-Tier items.

If Chen Xiaobei failed to get it, the Red Envelope would then fall into someone else’s hand. Worse yet, an enemy on Sheng Gongpao’s side may get it.

But then again, that was still not the worse consequence!

“That lowlife Shen Gongpao is ruthless! How could he do this?!” Chen Xiaobei was gnashing his teeth. “The session is going to start anytime now, and sifu is not returning my messages. I don’t even stand a chance at salvaging this situation!”

“Childe Chen!” Qin Yitian suddenly walked into the study. “The Mid-Autumn Festival dinner has already started. We’re all waiting for you!”

“Oh, okay! You could’ve just asked one of the servants to call for me. You didn’t have to come here yourself.”

Qin Yitian nodded. “There’s no need for Childe Chen to worry. I don’t know how I can repay you for all you’ve done, so I’m doing these small things to give myself some peace of mind.”

“I understand your intentions…” Chen Xiaobei frowned. “But I won’t be able to join tonight’s dinner…”

“Why? What is it? Did something happen?” Qin Yitian asked. “If there’s anything you need at all, I am willing to help! Even if I have to risk my life – I won’t think twice!”

Chen Xiaobei shook his head. “I’m afraid you can’t help me with this!”

“Childe Chen! Don’t you underestimate me! My combat power is at 1.5 million, and I have the Heavenly Sword. Even the occultists who invaded Vermillion Phoenix are no match for me! There’s nothing in the Nine Zones that I cannot solve!”

“Occultists!” An idea popped into Chen Xiaobei’s mind. “How many of them did you kill?”

“Huh? Why do you ask? I killed over a thousand occultists!”

“Over a thousand?” Chen Xiaobei’s eyes lit up. “Great! This is great! Lady Qin, let’s go! We’ll go right after dinner!”

“Huh?” Qin Yitian looked confused. “Didn’t you say that you’re not joining?”

“I was not. But now I am!” Chen Xiaobei was smiling from ear to ear. His entire mood had changed. “You can help me solve my problem!”

Qin Yitian nodded. “No problem! Just give the word, and I will do it! As long as it is within the Nine Zones, I can wipe whoever it is out! I still owe you a life, and I have to repay you!”

“It has nothing to do with Nine Zones and it also doesn’t require any sacrificing!” Chen Xiaobei said. “Let’s go! We’ll talk while we eat!”

…

A table had been set in the garden behind the prince’s residence. A sumptuous dinner had been laid on the table where Luo Bin, Lin Xue and Qin Yitian’s shidi were seated.

Wugui Kojiro was not qualified to join them, so he stood on the side, pouring tea.

Once when Chen Xiaobei and Qin Yitian had arrived did the dinner begin.

Everyone was in a pretty good mood, enjoying the moon and drinking wine. The conversations were light and the atmosphere was friendly.

Only Qin Yitian seemed distracted. She was ready to help Chen Xiaonbei with anything but Chen Xiaobei had not yet made any mention of it yet. What puzzled her even more was that, after all the wine was gone, Chen Xiaobei had his attention fixed on his phone. He looked at ease as if he did not need any help at all.

Of course, Chen Xiaobei was not merely fiddling with his phone and was not playing games either. He was getting ready to rag on Shen Gongpao in the Three Realms Red Envelope chat group!

Chen Xiaobei: Brother Shen! How big is the Red Envelope you’ve prepared for tonight? @Shengongpao

Shen Gongpao: Hehe! Don’t say I didn’t take care of you! I have prepared something that you really need – one hundred Spirit Serpent Bone-strengthening pills that can increase health! We’ll just have to see if you get them! 😏

Chen Xiaobei: You really do care for me, Shixiong Shen! You even know that I need help with raising my health! It seems like I will have to do my best to get your Red Envelope! I wouldn’t want to waste all that effort you put in!

Shen Gongpao: But I’ve been paying close attention to the horoscope lately, and the forecast is that your luck will keep dwindling! If I’m right, you won’t be getting a single Red Envelope!

Chen Xiaobei: I’m afraid you got that wrong. If I’m right, I will be today’s King of Luck!
