Why?
Because Xu Shu knew the strength of the Cao Gang; they were formidable.
The Cao Gang could dispatch warriors of the Third Rank and experts to the Wastelands to execute the task of exchanging sacrifices.
This ant that within the safety zone, there was a very high likelihood of the existence of Third-Rank combat power, perhaps even more than one.
Inside the safety zone, monsters absolutely could not take action, or they would surely face a bombardnt from the Star Tower.
For instance, at this very mont, the "Narrow Sleeve Guanyin" hanging off Xu Shu’s waist, looking entirely like an inert object, would be killed if she hard a human.
However, the Star Tower would not interfere in battles among Transcendents.
Unless one courted death and fought inside the Star Tower itself, the Star Tower would not respond; the only risk one would face was accountability from the Judgent Departnt.
Thus, going to a eting alone was sothing Xu Shu believed he could not afford to risk as a re Second-level "Iron Armor"; he wasn’t yet strong enough to challenge such a level of power, unless his opponents happened to be in the middle of a sacrifice ritual and he stumbled upon them.
But how could things in the world always be so coincidental?
The Cao Gang and the Heroic Society’s cult wouldn’t be holding sacrifices every day, would they? If he went and got exposed, wouldn’t that be sending himself to his death?
A wise man does not stand under a crumbling wall; he definitely cannot go.
Xu Shu felt that with his strength, he still wasn’t enough to directly challenge such a force.
But the current problem was that the Cao Gang had already set their sights on his family.
This, Xu Shu could not endure; he absolutely could not tolerate this organization continuing to exist.
Thus, Cao Gang must be eliminated.
No elimination was not an option!
Thus, Xu Shu deliberately spoke these words to Yu Mingluan and even specifically pointed out, "Should I go?"
This question almost explicitly indicated to the other party—"Bro, I might be in trouble here, co to save ! If you bring people to help, I can lead the way and help out!"
The aning was clear.
If Yu Mingluan could co with n, Xu Shu really wasn’t afraid to take the risk, to act as a scouting piece.
Not to ntion anything else, in terms of resisting damage, Xu Shu was sowhat confident.
If prepared, with soone backing him, and rely "leading the way," he definitely wouldn’t be killed instantly; he could even resist for a long ti.
Being one of the most durable "Warriors" and a Second Rank Legendary-level "Iron Armor," Xu Shu had that confidence.
He had fought against Third Rank opponents before—back in the wilderness, he had unexpectedly encountered a "Yin King." Xu Shu had even managed to escape unscathed! Though the price was the death of the weakest teammate, haha.
For Xu Shu now, his offensive abilities might still not be up to par, but when it ca to survival, he felt that a typical Third Rank "Dragon Elephant" might not be able to outlast him as a fellow Warrior pathway.
With "Jingwei Filling the Sea" "Iron Wall" for taking beatings, "Kua Fu Chasing the Sun" "Blood Do" for escaping, he wasn’t so easy to kill.
Of course, the premise was that he had people backing him; otherwise, if the opponent trapped him, that would be the end.
Anyway, as long as Yu Mingluan could co today, Xu Shu was 90% confident that he could take down the Cao Gang!
This is the consequence for those who trouble my family’s parents!
Xu Shu drank two cups of tea, waiting for news from Yu Mingluan.
The knocking on the door gradually weakened; it seed they were perhaps leaving.
However, Yu Mingluan had yet to reply.
’Busy?’
Xu Shu raised an eyebrow, gave up pretending, and directly clicked on "Yu Mingluan," "Team Invite."
In the upgraded network, team mbers could directly see each other’s locations!
[You sent a team invite, waiting for a response...]
Another cup of tea elapsed, and Xu Shu clicked several tis continuously.
No response.
No rejection either.
If that was the case, he could only let it be for today, ah, what a pity...
Xu Shu shook his head, continued to feign death, and looked for the next opportunity.
After all, the Cao Gang had already bared their fangs at him; it was just a matter of ti before they fell into his trap. Now he just lacked the strength.
"Sigh, still too weak, need to depend on others for help!"
"If I were Third Rank, no, I don’t need Third Rank, I just need to max out the Second-order Curse Seal, then I might have a chance to match Third Ranks."
"After all, after I max out my Second Order, it should reach level 40, and typically Third Rank entry requirent is 16 16 1, which is just 33. A Third Rank might not necessarily have a higher level than my Second Order!"
"Hmm, rest for today and go to the Star Tower tomorrow to trade, converting all my resources into Second-order Erosion Crystals to enhance myself!"
Xu Shu looked out at the moon through the window and firmly made up his mind.
This trip out had actually been quite fruitful.
Trading First-tier Crystals for Second-order Crystals, the exchange ratio was roughly three to one.
He would not touch the Purple Crystals on his body, only trade away the white and green ones, potentially exchanging them for about a dozen.
Then, also using Contribution Points to buy crystals, he might get about ten Second-order Crystals.
Nearly a million in cash could buy about five.
Of course, these calculations were approximate and wouldn’t be too far off; buying up to five enormities of Second-order Erosion Crystals should be alright, not too outrageously priced.
At least 25 crystals could be obtained in total.
Converting to experience bars, Xu Shu initially estimated that raising three to four levels was not a problem, with a good chance of reaching level five directly.
Just do it!
Things having reached this point, it was ti to sleep.
Xu Shu headed towards his room, ready to clarify things about Gu Pan and that strange little girl before sleeping.
He had just turned around when suddenly, behind him, there was a loud bang, the door vibrated, and a dent with a fist imprint appeared.
"?!" Xu Shu slowly turned around, looking incredulously at the door.
This...
Could it be that they...
Impossible, right?
Bang!
Another loud noise,
The incredibly sturdy iron security door was directly smashed by soone outside, the wall cracked continuously, and li fell in a stream.
This punch shattered Xu Shu’s last illusions.
