"This is just ridiculous, sending on errands to deliver ssages, and I get caught up in trouble?" Gu Shanhai doubted life itself; he had never expected that Rein would be conscripted due to a series of accidents.
So much for ’I’ll be back in an hour’; now I might not make it back for a whole month.
"Uncle Gu, don’t worry, I’ll go bring him back," the Demon Giant Swordsman Vier was also very concerned. According to the letter Rein sent back, he had to deal with the Holy God Sect.
"You better stay put and not go trying to ’Gourd Brothers saving grandpa,’ each delivering yourselves one by one," Gu Shanhai said irritably.
It’s okay for the protagonist to be caught up in trouble and unable to return; the harem staying here ant he’d inevitably co back sooner or later. But if the whole harem took off after him, then there really would be no chance left.
Vier beside him seed like she wanted to say sothing but, seeing Gu Shanhai so resolute, she didn’t dare to speak up.
"You lot, shape up, and quickly bear him a child, so no one else seduces him while he’s out," Gu Shanhai offered his advice.
With Rein’s character, if he had a wife and kids as ties, he would always be concerned about his family.
"Adventurers don’t have it that easy..." Vier murmured softly.
"Nonsense, if it was that easy, would I still need to tell you to try harder?" Gu Shanhai, with his good hearing, had of course overheard.
"Uncle, do you realize you sound like the elders during the holidays, nagging about marriage and offspring?" Lina, the Little Elf Elental Master, also complained.
"Oh, I’m getting on in years; I have to find so amusent sowhere, don’t I? It’s too much for other adventurers to handle, so I can only seek amusent with you guys," Gu Shanhai justified himself outright, as brash as could be in his pestering.
"..."×4
Everyone else was speechless, truly, the older one gets, the harder they are to handle.
"Alright, back to business, Rein will be fine; he should return after a while," Gu Shanhai then reassured them to not worry, of course, implying they’d better scurry back to their business and stop being an eyesore here.
Vier and the others could see what Gu Shanhai was thinking, so they conscientiously left.
After their departure, Gu Shanhai continued perfecting his breakthrough Divine Skills for the Cave Soul Stage. As for the corresponding cultivation technique, he didn’t intend to deduce it yet, mainly because he wasn’t even sure if he’d have the chance to reach the Upper Three Realms—he even doubted the existence of the Upper Three Realms.
So, there was no point in preparing in advance.
If he really couldn’t advance any further, Gu Shanhai planned to draw upon the divine beings of this world to beco stronger.
For him, as long as he integrated it into his own system as a module, no matter how he grew, he could drag the other modules up along with him.
So reaching the limit now wasn’t an issue; he’d just pile on a few more bricks, and the limit would rise accordingly.
From the beginning, Gu Shanhai never worried about reaching his limits or being unable to grow stronger; if one way didn’t work, he’d try another, always finding a way that does.
Like how the Qi Refining Sixth Level White Tiger constructed from battle tactics was also integrated this way.
"Saint Lord, soone has commissioned to deliver a letter to you," an adventurer walked in, speaking respectfully.
Compared to players, adventurers knew what respect was, not acting recklessly when facing soone stronger than themselves.
"Alright, thank you," Gu Shanhai casually tossed out a thousand Divine Power Coin as a tip, which the other party happily accepted before leaving.
A thousand Divine Power Coins was quite a sum. After all, the person was just passing by and didn’t co specifically for him.
Gu Shanhai was sowhat puzzled when he received the letter; it couldn’t possibly be from Rein since his letter had only just arrived.
Upon opening it, his expression grew even more solemn.
"Protective Umbrella Responsibility Limited Company?" Gu Shanhai read the content; the sender was that Plane rchant who had incited the Holy God Sect to massacre in secret, wanting to et him in person.
"Strange, why does he want to see ? It doesn’t make sense."
As for selling out the Holy God Sect? That was just nonsense; all he did was betray them, but it was Saint City that took action, what did that have to do with him?
"It’s unlikely that he’s looking for trouble with . If he really wanted trouble, he’d just take out directly; no need to et and show any nace."
Gu Shanhai remained rational. Just as if he were looking for trouble with soone, he wouldn’t arrange a eting or send a letter; direct action was much more satisfying.
"Still, I guess I’m the first one to be sought out by a Plane rchant; it’s a first for ," Gu Shanhai mused on this.
Ordinarily, players would find Plane rchants so elusive, and now it was his turn to play hard-to-get.
But while he could joke about it, he needed to take it seriously.
He definitely intended to go, just that there was a negligible little problem—while the letter directly stated a desire to et, it neglected to ntion a ti and place, which made it rather awkward.
"So... how am I supposed to go?" Gu Shanhai was also sowhat helpless; the letter’s content was downright frustrating.
"Oh~ no need to worry, my dear client, why would we have you co all the way there? I’m already here." A slightly comical voice ca through, and a black vortex materialized, revealing a silhouette.
A figure resembling a goblin yet with strange patterns on its skin appeared.
