Xu Shu Has Other Ideas!
(Vote for Monthly Ticket)_3 She had obtained an Epic Curse Seal known as “Sword Tomb Wan Yi,” a secret naturally not to be disclosed to outsiders.
Bearing a treasure, one is liable to be condemned for it.
Thus, even unto this day, her aunt Gu Yue Ming was unaware that her own niece had received the most ancient inheritance of the Gu Family.
But as the saying goes, “One does not parade their riches, just as one does not walk openly in brocade at night.” Gu Pan felt an underlying restlessness for not being able to share this with anyone.
It so happened that Xu Shu was the only person she could tell about it because she knew that he also possessed a Curse Seal of level 20, and what’s more, his Curse Seal’s origin was a mystery, even less aboveboard than her own.
In this mont, she was almost bursting with excitent to “show off.”
She even wanted to make a comparison.
She knew that when they parted two weeks ago, Xu Shu was at level 12.
Now, having successfully broken through a death challenge, not only had she obtained a level 20 Curse Seal just like him, but she also had advanced to level 9 in a short ti.
She could hardly wait to know what level Xu Shu was at, wanting to compare with him and prove that she could surpass him in no ti.
Although there was a saying that the student need not outdo the master, Gu Pan had always had a strong competitive spirit—she definitely wanted a comparison!
The next mont, Xu Shu glanced around and whispered, “Alright, let’s keep this between us.
I’m at level 20 right now and am thinking of ways to break through.”
Gu Pan’s smile froze on her face.
What the hell?
He’s maxed out?
Damn it!
Leveling up this fast!
Level 20 in less than three weeks, averaging one level per day, right?
But, but he was only slightly faster than …
Gu Pan consoled herself and, with a joyless twist of her mouth, almost gritting her teeth, offered her begrudging well-wishes, “Well, congratulations to you then.”
Xu Shu waved his hand dismissively, “Hey, it’s nothing.
If I don’t hurry and improve my strength, in such a dangerous world, who knows when I’ll die at soone’s hand.”
Hearing this, Gu Pan thought of her recent brush with death just after leaving ho for her exploits, and she deeply agreed, “That’s true, the Wasteland is really too dangerous.”
What the books say about there being almost no danger on the Wasteland is complete bullshit.
But this ss, you can’t be innocent in all this, right?
I always feel like you’re a jinx, bringing trouble wherever you go.
I felt like following you was bad news, and maybe this encounter with the bizarre looping space is related to you too?
Forget it, I can’t think like that, we were trapped before you even showed up.
Gu Pan glanced at Xu Shu and dismissed this unrealistic thought.
“Ah, the Wasteland, so unsafe.”
Both sighed at the sa ti.
Xu Shu added to himself, “If I had a purple Martial Artist mark to use right now, I could ascend to Second Rank directly.
Sadly, I discovered that the Ascension Network’s trading area delivery can be ordered directly to your door, but the base price is a hundred Contribution Points per delivery.
It’s just too expensive.”
This fact about the Ascension Network’s trading area delivery was sothing Xu Shu had found out by staying up late and browsing the network.
The Ascension Network had always been known for its convenience and speed, but Xu Shu had always found it inconvenient since delivery to your door wasn’t an option.
To conduct a trade, one had to go to the Star Tower in a safe zone.
Convenient?
Hardly.
Later, while chatting in the trading area’s posts with fellow forum veterans, he learned that Lie Zhenzi also offered a suprely convenient service that ignored distance and location, providing pickup and delivery anyti, anywhere.
Of course, such a high level of convenience also ant a hefty price.
Just like after activating a set of ruins, one could transport directly back to the Star Tower from the ruins exit.
To have Lie Zhenzi personally deliver goods, one would need to exchange for a special “incense burner” in the transaction area, to construct a temporary “teleportation point.”
The cheapest kind would do, but the price is also one hundred Contribution Points per piece.
Sending a delivery costs a million each ti, naturally deterring most people.
Who with money to spare would do such a thing?
Would a few steps to the Star Tower kill them?
Therefore, this object, over ti, was almost forgotten by the public, and Xu Shu was only inford of it later.
At the mont, he simply expressed his feelings about it.
His main thought was that he had already reached level 20.
Now, if he could get his hands on a Flawless Level purple Martial Artist Seal, a series of operations later would secure him the desired Warrior pathway Curse Seal.
The specific process is actually more troubleso, but as long as the basic materials are available, the process isn’t a problem.
At this point, Xu Shu’s advancent to Second Rank was only missing one material.
Moreover, these materials were visible to the naked eye, obtainable through established channels.
At this ti, upon hearing his sigh, Gu Pan’s expression suddenly froze, “What did you say you’re missing?
You can advance to Second Rank with a purple Martial Artist Seal?”
Xu Shu nodded, “Yes, but unfortunately, I don’t have enough Contribution Points.
I can only afford to buy a burner.
After buying the burner, I won’t have money to buy the seal nor blue Curse Crystals, alas!”
“Second Rank, just like that…”
“He actually knows that Curse Crystals combined with seals can synthesize a Curse Seal…”
“If he really could advance to Second Rank, it would provide great security for the journey…”
Gu Pan seed to have suffered a blow, muttering to herself for a while, caught in indecision.
After a mont, she bit her lip, looking deeply at Xu Shu, “Let’s get this straight, this is going to be on credit at my place.”
“What?” Xu Shu was startled, then his eyes lit up, “Wait, you can’t be…”
Gu Pan rolled her eyes, “Consider yourself lucky.
The two items you ntioned, I actually have them.”
As she spoke, she rummaged through her small bag and took out two items.
One was a finely made talisman, shimring blue, with mysterious runes constantly flowing within it.
The other, a mini sword with an ancient style, exuded a frighteningly sharp aura as soon as it was taken out.
Gu Pan pointed with her mouth, “Here, the blue talisman, which works just like a Curse Crystal, can be combined with a seal to synthesize a Curse Seal.
As for this sword, it is the seal itself, part of our Gu Family’s exclusive inheritance.”
The origin of that talisman was fairly common, available to anyone with the money.
But that seal was sothing extrely rare and valuable.
However, Gu Pan was currently in a position where she could choose her seals freely.
In addition to the largest ancestral inheritance, “Sword Tomb Wan Yi” she brought from the Sword Tomb, there were also many Small Sword Tombs that had co out with her.
Most of these Small Sword Tombs that ca out with her were blue, with quite a few purple ones as well.
If she were to sell them directly, Gu Pan believed she could definitely be considered a “wealthy woman.”
Unfortunately, they were unsellable, being precious treasures passed down through the Gu Family’s lineage.
Seeing this, Xu Shu couldn’t help but reveal a smile.
Taking the small sword and blue talisman in hand, his eyes sparkled, “Good, good, good, Gu Pan oh Gu Pan, I did not misjudge you, you really are my lucky star!”
Gu Pan’s mouth twitched imdiately, displeased, “Hey, call teacher!”
