Chapter 36 – Freeload successful
The previous Fate Master of Breaker Star was personally killed by an Immortal.
This news hit Ye Shuangluo like a bomb, leaving him stunned.
"Why did that Immortal kill the previous Fate Master of Breaker Star?"
Su Zhan didn't answer the question. He simply returned to his desk and continued practicing calligraphy, stroke by stroke.
After a while, he finally spoke without lifting his head:
"If you want to restore Breaker Star to its former glory… it's quite difficult. But if you just want it to be less dim, then you only need to keep fighting and winning."
Su Zhan initially wanted to say it was impossible, but he chose a more tactful approach in the end.
Ye Shuangluo tilted his head. Was this an evasive answer?
But it didn't really matter. After all, he came here to find out why Breaker Star had become so dim.
Now he not only knew the reason but also how to help Breaker Star. That was enough.
Besides, how the previous Fate Master died wasn't that important to him.
So Ye Shuangluo bid farewell to Su Zhan and left.
After he left, Su Zhan sighed.
Why did the Immortal kill the previous Fate Master of Breaker Star? Of course, he knew the answer.
But how could he tell Ye Shuangluo that the Immortal did it to turn that person into the commander of the Ghost Legion?
With a great battle looming, he couldn't let anyone under his command know about this, to avoid demoralizing them before the fight even began.
"Sigh."
Su Zhan looked up at the dim Breaker Star and sighed deeply. As the Fate Master of Seven Kills Star, Breaker Star's current state also affected him significantly.
After all, "Seven Kills, Greedy Wolf, Breaker Star" always shared the same fate.
Thinking of the method His Highness had told him before leaving, he couldn't help but shake his head.
To restore Breaker Star's former glory, the current Fate Master would need to kill the previous one in a one-on-one duel.
But this was too difficult. Even Su Zhan couldn't gain any advantage in a duel with that person, let alone Ye Shuangluo.
So Su Zhan didn't plan to tell Ye Shuangluo. He feared the young man might do something reckless.

After leaving the Rebels' base in the capital, Ye Shuangluo began
[Congratulations on eating a special delicacy]
[Progress +1 (4/5)]
After finishing the black mountain goat's leg, Ye Shuangluo picked up the ink spirit chicken and started gnawing on it.
The chicken meat melted in his mouth, and the bones were so soft they almost dissolved with a single suck.
In just 20 breaths, he had devoured the entire chicken.
Ren Tianxing was dumbfounded. This guy ate too fast, like a starving ghost reincarnated.
[Congratulations on eating a special delicacy, progress +1]
[Congratulations on achieving: "Gourmet Hunter"]
[Would you like to claim your achievement reward?]
Ye Shuangluo chose "No" for now. Claiming the reward here was too risky. If he suddenly passed out after claiming it, he'd be in big trouble.
Standing up and stretching, Ye Shuangluo smiled and said:
"Thanks for the meal. If I get the chance, I'll definitely repay you."
Ren Tianxing shook his head, indicating it wasn't necessary.
"If you really want to repay me, then just never appear in front of me again."
Of course, he only dared to say this in his heart. Besides, he felt that as a wealthy man, he would never need the young man's repayment.
Ye Shuangluo smiled, guessing what Ren Tianxing was thinking, but he didn't care. He had achieved his goal.
As for why he chose Ren Tianxing's house?
There was no special reason. He didn't know the man; he just wanted to freeload a meal.
Ren Tianxing's mansion was the closest to his inn and looked extremely luxurious, indicating that its residents were either rich or noble.
Returning to the inn, Ye Shuangluo eagerly opened the achievement interface and chose to claim his reward.
[Congratulations on receiving the reward: Self-Devour (Skill)]
