Chapter 198: Return to the Dispersed Immortal Garden
Seeing what Lei Pangpang took out, Gu Xi was stunned for a moment. It was a flask, not too large, containing the soul of a young dragon.
[Black Dragon Soul (Young Dragon): The soul of a black dragon that died shortly after being born. Although it died early, it can still be considered a dragon soul and can be used as core material for making a bone dragon.]
Looking at the [Black Dragon Soul] in front of him, Gu Xi slowly shook his head.
Gu Xi's reaction surprised Lei Pangpang.
"Huh, didn't you specifically go to the Dispersed Immortal Garden to collect dragon blood crystals and dragon steel to prepare to make a bone dragon? This may be a young dragon, but it's still a dragon soul. Why don't you want it?"
"I already have a bone dragon. It's not that I don't want it, but it feels redundant and not very useful.
I can use necromantic means to piece together a bone dragon or ghost dragon myself. This young dragon soul at most is for a patchwork bone dragon, a level 7 one, and there's only one.
This isn't meaningful to me. I'd rather find architectural blueprints for the dragon tomb."
"Okay, you have one of the three divine skills, you're impressive."
Lei Pangpang understood that Gu Xi's considerations were different from others.
Other necromancers focused on supplementing troops, strengthening their units, or finding other ways to enhance.
Gu Xi considered cultivating
He wanted nothing unrelated to cultivating.
People with clear goals often go further.
Lei Pangpang thought for a moment and then said to Gu Xi, "I don't have anything else good on hand, but we can exchange contact information. If I find any architectural blueprints or bone magic lamps in the future, I'll sell them to you."
Seeing Lei Pangpang look like he had found a benefactor, Gu Xi smiled.
"Sure, I'm currently collecting various architectural blueprints. If you have any, send them to me. I'll take them all."
Lei Pangpang readily agreed, and they exchanged raven contact information.
After Lei Pangpang left, Gu Xi lost interest in staying here.
What he wanted most now was to quickly find a safe place to enter Aridowei City.
He wanted to release the undead troops frozen in the Necromantic Scourge Array and place the newly acquired bone magic tower in Aridowei City.
As for other matters, Gu Xi didn't have time to deal with them now.
After packing up his things, Gu Xi, holding the Cold Wind Staff, walked towards the nearby blue portal.
It was the portal back to the Dispersed Immortal Garden, and Gu Xi had seen many players return earlier.
So he didn't linger and headed straight for the portal.
Shortly after Gu Xi left, a group of players arrived.
"Where is he? He was just here."
A player in a black robe, holding a short staff, started looking around.
"Xiaoliu, are you sure there's such a person?"
"Of course, I was listening nearby the whole time. That guy didn't bargain when buying things and said he'd take as many architectural blueprints as possible. When I heard that, I went to find the boss."
"As long as he's here. You guys look around. We've had that batch of goods for a while and haven't moved them. If we can find this guy and sell the goods, I'll treat everyone to Tianxiang Tower for three days and nights."
"Great!"
"Big brother is generous!"
"..."
By this time, Gu Xi had already walked through the portal.
When stepping into the portal, Gu Xi thought he would feel a pulling sensation again.
Unexpectedly, he only felt a cool breeze, and the surroundings changed.
He was back on the ground in the Dispersed Immortal Garden, at the General's Platform.
Gu Xi glanced around, seeing many players leaving the General's Platform.
After some hesitation, Gu Xi released the Evil Coffin, jumped on it, and slowly made his way back to Du Wushuang's rented house following his memory.
Lightly pushing the door, Gu Xi found it locked and seemingly empty inside.
This made Gu Xi a bit worried. After all, the recent battle was very dangerous, and he didn't know how the petite Du Wushuang was doing.
Thinking of this, Gu Xi sat in front of Du Wushuang's door. The shadow of Aridowei City's gate appeared behind him, and an owl flew out from the gate.
Gu Xi wrote a note, tied it to the owl's claw, and then told the owl.
"Go find the owner of this house."
The owl glanced at Du Wushuang's house, seemingly locking onto something, and then flew away.
Seeing this, Gu Xi felt relieved.
If the owl could fly out, it meant she was still alive. No matter what, it was a good sign.
This eased Gu Xi's worries a lot, and he leaned against the door, closing his eyes.
Just then, the sound of intense hoofbeats came from a distance.
Accompanied by Du Wushuang's screaming.
"Gu Xi, I knew you were alive, help me, the horse won't stop."
Gu Xi was about to stand up when he heard a bang. Looking back, he saw Du Wushuang's helmet hit the ground, and she was thrown high, falling backward.
Gu Xi wasn't skilled enough to catch her, so he ran to where she would land, hoping to see if she was okay.
But Du Wushuang was much tougher than Gu Xi. After hitting the ground, she rolled over and got up.
Seeing Gu Xi running towards her, she pounced on him.
Gu Xi caught her in his arms, a sour and rusty smell hit him.
"You're hurt?"
"No, it's someone else's blood. I couldn't wear my helmet, and it flowed in through the collar.
I was going to find a place to take a bath first, but seeing your owl, I knew you'd miss me. Why don't we take a bath together?"
"Huh?"
Gu Xi didn't expect Du Wushuang to suggest this.
"Huh what? Let's go. I know a bathhouse with private rooms, perfect for two people. I need to deal with my hair too, it's all stuck together with blood. I might have to shave it.
If I don't, it'll stick to my armor, and pulling it off will hurt."
"Hey, is this something I can listen to for free?"
"What? I'm talking about hair, hair, understand?"
