The opponent looked rather weak, but Gu Shanhai knew that this was definitely just a disguise, and if a fight were to break out, the chaos originating from the abyss could transform the opponent into an extrely powerful entity.
"Hello, Mr. Gu. My na is Smiling Face, and I am the Deputy Chairman of Protective Umbrella Responsibility Limited Company. Here is my business card." The other creature, nad Smiling Face, dressed in a suit and looking like a successful individual, handed over a business card.
After receiving it, Gu Shanhai glanced at it, which read Minister of Endless Abyss Comrce, Deputy Chairman of Protective Umbrella Responsibility Limited Company·Smiling Face.
"I’ve long admired your na," said Gu Shanhai warmly, though a bit puzzled. It was strange that soone with such a significant title had co personally.
"Please, please. This ti I’ve co to ask you sothing, Mr. Gu," asked Smiling Face with a smile.
Gu Shanhai wasn’t surprised and then responded, "Please speak, if I know, I shall hide nothing."
"It’s like this. I traced a scent from a young man nad Rein, which led to you, and I want to ask where you encountered Bubble 73674," said Smiling Face straightforwardly.
"Ah? Bubble 73674? What is that..." Gu Shanhai was a bit perplexed. Shouldn’t he be asking about the Holy God Sect? Why did the conversation switch to this strange thing?
"Oh, Bubble 73674 is an Abyss Demon Dragon; that’s his na. A hundred thousand years ago, because he secretly went to steal the leaves of Emperor Wu’s mother, he was slapped away. As a Dragon Clan whose main profession is farming, he has always wanted to grow a World Tree, unfortunately without foresight."
"However, due to my lord’s friendship with Emperor Wu, although Bubble 73674 suffered a significant blow, he probably didn’t die but was just sent to so unknown world," Smiling Face explained the cause and effect.
"I do know an Abyss Demon Dragon, but whether it is Bubble 73674... I’m not sure. However, I’d like to know what kind of temperant Bubble 73674 has; for instance, if he was dismbered and suppressed by soone, and you rescued him, would he destroy the world?" pondered Gu Shanhai internally.
He could definitely confirm that the Abyss Demon Dragon in Daoist Soldier World was the audacious Bubble 73674, who dared to snatch leaves from the World Tree and then suffered a massive blow. Otherwise, why was his strength so weak that he was suppressed by a group of people?
"That... depends on whether there are any kin of certain beings in that world. If there are, then Bubble 73674 can only accept his fate, seeing that he has already suffered a massive blow and surely wouldn’t want to endure another," Smiling Face hesitated before explaining.
"So, how do we determine this?" Gu Shanhai didn’t really want to say, but clearly, he couldn’t deceive the person before him who could sense from Rein that Gu Shanhai possessed the "Dragon Tooth Military Technique." Therefore, even if he didn’t say it, the other could trace the cause and effect back to Daoist Soldier World themselves.
"It seems you have important people in that world. Don’t worry, he wouldn’t dare act recklessly again," Smiling Face reassured.
"Are you sure?" Gu Shanhai was still quite skeptical. That was, after all, an Abyss Demon Dragon.
"Absolutely sure. He will definitely be very honest and will not cause trouble but will leave with . As a businessman, I am quite honest," Smiling Face repeatedly assured. Concerned that Gu Shanhai might not believe him, he added, "I give my word in the na of my lord’s Abyssal Will."
When Smiling Face said this, Gu Shanhai’s pupils shrank. The added remark from his counterpart was not trivial but truly possessed a conceptual effect, akin to an oath. If violated, it would lead to severe backlash, especially since it was articulated using the will of the abyss.
Just like a devout believer using their faith as a guarantee, it was highly credible.
Of course, Gu Shanhai couldn’t have kept it hidden anyway. This was his counterpart giving him a way out.
"Alright, he is located at..." Gu Shanhai revealed the coordinates.
"Thank you imnsely. This is a small token of my gratitude," said Smiling Face, taking out an invitation and handing it to Gu Shanhai: "This world is rather complicated, please be extra careful."
"That is very kind of you," Gu Shanhai said, though he didn’t hesitate to accept it.
"The most precious isn’t the world itself, but after Bubble 73674 was slapped away, a leaf from the World Tree fell into this world. It is currently ownerless. If you can obtain it, it belongs to you," Smiling Face also advised.
Then Gu Shanhai stiffened up, and after glancing at the world ntioned on the invitation, he was sowhat dumbfounded.
It seed... sothing wasn’t quite right.
"Damn it!"
Gu Shanhai finally realized what was off. In his previous life when he had reincarnated as the World Tree, the original materials were found from this very world. How could things co full circle again? Especially since this World Tree leaf was from soone’s mother.
"So, there won’t be any trouble if I take it, right? After all, it’s a leaf from the World Tree." Gu Shanhai cautiously asked. If it was ownerless, he really wouldn’t care, but the issue was that the origin of the other party was mysterious. If he really took it, would he also end up in big trouble?
"No, it’s just a leaf," Smiling Face reassured him, "just like a descendant pulling out one of your hairs. After giving him a lesson, would you really care about that one hair?" Smiling Face encouraged him to take it, implying if the other party truly didn’t want PaoPao73674 to have it, then PaoPao73674 simply wouldn’t be able to get the leaf.
"Your taphor...is killer." Gu Shanhai, hearing this, was indeed sowhat speechless. If it were him, he certainly wouldn’t care. It was just a hair strand, after all.
And for the World Tree, a leaf was even less significant than a hair.
"Yes, we, Protective Umbrella Responsibility Limited Company, are extrely reliable in terms of integrity. You can be completely assured. However, given your strength, if you enter that world, there will still be many difficulties. I hope you’ll carefully consider it when entering."
"Also, don’t think about it for too long, because no one knows who might pick up this leaf."
Smiling Face gave another piece of advice.
"Eh, then doesn’t that an you can’t plant the World Tree anymore?" Gu Shanhai also considered this blind spot.
"I think, after getting into big trouble, PaoPao73674 wouldn’t want to plant the World Tree anymore." Smiling Face ant that only PaoPao73674, that one dragon, wanted to plant it, and it had nothing to do with others.
"Okay, then thanks for your invitation," Gu Shanhai simply had to believe it.
Mainly because based on his past life’s experience, all these things the other party said were true.
Because when he originally beca the World Tree, it was 100,000 years later. At that ti, that World Tree leaf still existed, and PaoPao73674 from the Daoist Soldier World had likely been revived and returned, obviously becoming very honest and no longer attempting to plant the World Tree.
After Gu Shanhai received it, even before his rebirth, he was never pursued for it.
It was like if an ant picked up his hair, he wouldn’t care about such a trivial matter.
"So, Mr. Gu, will you be making a purchase? Products from Protective Umbrella Responsibility Limited Company are all of excellent quality." At this mont, Smiling Face switched attitudes, pulling out a list and manual from his inner pocket.
Gu Shanhai narrowed his eyes: "I’ll have a look, but I don’t have much on , so I’m afraid I can’t afford much."
He definitely didn’t refuse, because even if he didn’t buy, looking wouldn’t cost him anything.
"The custor is god, you can take your ti to choose." Saying this, Smiling Face handed the list over to Gu Shanhai.
aning that it didn’t matter if he bought anything or not, it was just forming a connection. After all, Smiling Face was a legitimate rchant, unlike those foot rchants, owow, and the like who had no sense of service, and were all about ’take it or leave it, if not, get lost’ attitude.
"Well then, I might as well broaden my horizons," Gu Shanhai said outwardly, but inwardly he was scoffing: treating custors like god coming from the Abyss, are you planning to fleece them or what?
