"Isn't this embarrassing?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xin couldn't help but spread his hands and said to Xingyuan, "Besides, I've already been blacklisted by your team's knight Li Xin. If she knew I came to borrow merits, who knows what this woman would do..."

Before he finished speaking, Lin Xin, who was glanced at by Long Haochen, quickly shut his mouth.

He almost forgot that the hot-tempered woman was the sworn sister of his current group leader.

"So you guys are here to borrow merits."

Xingyuan didn't want to lend them merits to allow them to be promoted to the rank of general, so he deliberately acted a little embarrassed.

However, Lin Xin and Long Haochen should be aware of how wealthy the current family of Sergeant No. 1 is. He doesn't want to leave an impression of being stingy on them, and there is no need to let it affect their future relationship.

Long Haochen didn't know why, but he felt that it was difficult for him to ask Xingyuan, who also had a heart towards light, to borrow merits, such a "vulgar thing".

Therefore, when seeing the obvious embarrassment on Xingyuan's face, Long Haochen had already started to back down in his heart.

"To be honest, after our team was promoted to general level, we did have some merits left. How many merits does your team still need to make up 10,000?"

After thinking it over, Xingyuan still felt that it was not appropriate to reject Long Haochen and Lin Xin's requests so abruptly.

It’s okay for Long Haochen.

Xingyuan didn't plan to have too much involvement with him in the future. He saved his world and lived his own life. It didn't matter if their relationship was just an acquaintance.

Moreover, given Long Haochen's character, he would not hold a grudge against him just because he did not lend him this little bit of merit.

He is not Yang Wenzhao.

On the contrary, Long Haochen might still be feeling guilty for making Xing Yuan look embarrassed because of his request...

The key to the problem is Lin Xin.

Just as Xingyuan said before, he has few relatives and friends in the world of Holy Demon Continent, so he will take extra care of each of them.

This is the case with the Sheng family at Exorcist Pass, with Cai'er, with Tan Wan, Lin Xin, and a group of fellow apprentices at Jialing Pass.

Even though Lin Xin is a funny guy who is always thinking about how to take advantage of others or has bad intentions in his mind, he has never set his sights on Xingyuan.

Even when Xingyuan was studying magic in Jialingguan, he asked him for advice on potions.

Xingyuan was ready to be an apprentice to Lin Xin, who had made some achievements in potion making at that time, and to do hard labor for him for a while, and to be severely exploited. However, in the end, Lin Xin never treated him unfairly, and did not let Xingyuan pay for the materials for making potions...

So Xingyuan decided to lend them merits so that their team could also be promoted to the general level.

What's more, besides Xingyuan, Long Haochen and the others have no other people to borrow merits from.

They were just over a thousand merit points away from being promoted to the general rank. Even if other demon hunting groups were short of money, they could still gather this amount of merit points by visiting a few more.

Of course, Xingyuan agreed to lend them the merits under certain conditions.

Long Haochen and Lin Xin were also aware of this. After all, Xingyuan also had to give an explanation to his members and could not just lend out merits for no reason.

In addition, the conditions proposed by Xingyuan were not too harsh, so the two agreed without much thought.

Rather than being on guard day and night, worrying that the mission that concerns Cai'er's future will be taken by someone else first, it would be safer to let others take the initiative to deliver it to you...

When Xingyuan transferred out the merits, Long Haochen couldn't help but say with some emotion: "Brother Xingyuan, you have so much say in your team. You can lend these more than a thousand merits without any delay. Don't you need to discuss it with the deputy captain and the team members?" Xingyuan opened his mouth and was about to explain when Lin Xin on the side beat him to the punch.

"Haochen, you don't know this."

Lin Xin shook his head and said to Long Haochen, "They are sergeant level one, wait, let me see... The deputy leader of general level 21 is Miss Cai'er. We are all family. What is there to discuss?"

"What about the other team members?" Long Haochen asked again with blinking eyes.

"Not to mention the other team members."

Lin Xin snorted, "As far as I know, every member of Xingyuan's team has eaten his Shengling Pill for free, and they are indebted to him for a huge favor.

Besides, Xingyuan earned more than a thousand merits by selling pills during the exorcism. Even if he gave them to us for free, his teammates wouldn't mind, do you believe it?"

Xingyuan: “…”

There is something else you are saying, kid.

Long Haochen: “…”

Long Haochen also fell silent, apparently he understood what Lin Xin meant.

But because Xingyuan was listening nearby, he could only nod and say, "I understand."

……

After seeing off Lin Xin and Long Haochen, Xing Yuan returned to the team and did not hide anything from everyone. He directly told them that he had just borrowed more than a thousand merits.

Just like Lin Xin said, since Xingyuan was the best at earning merit in the entire team, and everyone had taken his free pills to assist in cultivation and restore spiritual power, so they had no objections at all...

"Master, why did you lend your merit to that profiteer?"

Li Xin didn't have a problem with Xing Yuan's actions. She was targeting Lin Xin, "Have you forgotten how that guy tricked Hao Chen?"

"Whether he cheats Haochen or not is none of my business."

Xingyuan also knew that Li Xin was not a bad person, but she had a big misunderstanding of Lin Xin. "Anyway, I have known him for so many years, and he has never cheated me once. Besides, it's only a little over a thousand merit points, so I can accept it even if I give it to him for free."

"Master, I'm sorry."

Li Xin lowered her head.

The reason why she said that just now was that she had never expected that her master and that profiteer would have such a close relationship.

"Besides, I'm lending this merit to Haochen, so you don't have to worry about it going to waste."

Xingyuan didn't want to explain too much on this matter, so he immediately changed the subject and suggested that everyone go to the Demon Hunter Trading Center to see if there was any suitable equipment to buy.

The two generals in the 21st Demon Hunting Group who are most in need of replacing their equipment are naturally Li Xin and Wang Yuanyuan.

When their strength reached the fifth level, the demon-level equipment they had previously used obviously could not keep up with the intensity of the battle.

Although Yue Mingnan is also wearing a set of spirit-level equipment, she is a priest after all, and her demand for equipment is much lower than that of knights and warriors who need to engage in close combat with the enemy.

Besides, Li Xin and Wang Yuanyuan's equipment was upgraded to better protect her as a back-row priest. (End of this chapter)
