I Don't Agree to the Terms

Chapter 884 468: No Problem If Trouble Is Big—Just Hold On to a Powerful Backer (Part 2)

The reason is naturally because when the bloodline secret technique is used for searching and surveillance, it is not through violent means but is of a gentle nature; otherwise, the backlash would have killed him on the spot.

The bloodline searching secret technique is more about finding people, rather than attacking, and it's meant to find one's own people, so it naturally can't be too harsh.

After regulating his breath for a quarter of an hour, people from the Wu Clan and the Zhou Family came over.

"Your Highness, is what you said earlier true?" The speaker was naturally a member of the Zhou Clan, also a character with Three Flowers Gathering at the Top, the leader of the Zhou Family's team this time, named Zhou Qingzhu, a burly man.

Compared to the Wu Clan, the Zhou Family is closer to the Imperial Grandson. If we talk about relationships, Zhou Qingzhu can be considered the Seventeenth Grandpa, so upon hearing that his grandson was accepted as a disciple by a God Demon, he was naturally extremely excited.

"Why would I lie to you? Fortunately, the bloodline searching secret technique is gentle and harmless; if it had the slightest malice, you would only see my corpse right now." Zhao Jiyu said calmly.

He was telling the truth; even if he died, his Emperor Xuan father wouldn't fight for justice for him.

Asking the God Demon for justice is practically asking for death.

"Alright, alright, alright, we shouldn't delay this, we need to find the person quickly to prevent any unexpected developments." Wu Yi, the leader of the Wu Clan, also nodded.

What? The mother of the other party is from the Zhou Family and not the Wu Clan? That's not important at all. When the legitimate wife in the future is from the Wu Clan, that's enough. If this is successful, it's essentially a union of the Zhao, Wu, and Zhou families, potentially suppressing other great families and the paths of orthodox and demon sects.

The Ten Gangs? The Eight Great Families and the orthodox and demon paths have never paid them much attention.

"This matter needs caution; the bloodline searching secret technique cannot be used, but it can be sure that they are near the outskirts of Anchang City, so we have to search little by little." Zhao Jiyu said.

The implication is that this time the expenditure in manpower and resources will certainly not be small, and the required time will not be short.

...

"They started fighting again; fortunately, we ran fast. Ever since we escaped, we haven't had a day's rest." Qing Feng put away his cultivation technique, his expression showing a bit of relief.

Ming Yue frowned: "Master, it seems someone was watching me just now."

"Why didn't I feel it?" Qing Feng was curious; logically, surveillance shouldn't only target one person.

"It's not the kind of seeing with the eyes, but a feeling, a hidden feeling." Ming Yue found it a bit indescribable, even his face was scrunched up, and then he said: "This feeling seems like a big trouble."

"No problem, if the sky falls there's someone tall to hold it up." Gu Shanhai comforted: "Look at Qing Feng, isn't he tall enough? If something happens, let him go and hold it up."

"Aren't the Yellow Turban Warriors taller? Wouldn't it be better to let them hold it up?" Qing Feng joked.

"Well, your skills in banter and responding are becoming more proficient." Gu Shanhai glanced at Qing Feng and said.

"It's all because you, Master, started with this phrase. If I don't respond, wouldn't it be awkward?" Qing Feng followed up with another line.

"I'm afraid this matter is not that simple; I feel it's even more troubling than Hu Sanniang before." Ming Yue frowned, but unfortunately, his talent couldn't give more feedback on what the issue was, just that there was one.

"How troublesome can it be, can it be more troublesome than the sky?" Gu Shanhai was completely unbelieving.

"With your words, Master, I'm relieved; after all, if the sky falls, there's someone tall to hold it up." Ming Yue laughed upon hearing Gu Shanhai's words, as long as he clings tightly to Gu Shanhai's legs, he doesn't believe the trouble can hit him.

"You little rascal, you really plan on having me be your shield." Gu Shanhai was somewhat helpless but amused, it's too filial.

Ming Yue grinned sheepishly, not saying anything.

"Talking about this is useless, you two should breakthrough to the Postnatal Realm in a few days, right?" Gu Shanhai estimated and asked.

"At most three days," Qing Feng answered first, Ming Yue didn't respond, as Qing Feng answered for him.

Their progress was about the same; Qing Feng was a bit faster, but not by much.

"Hmm, progress is okay." Gu Shanhai praised.

This progress was indeed okay; if it were other protagonists, by now they would have achieved some kind of dominance, even the weakest Wang Qi would be on the path of world domination and fighting against the Divine.

Yet these two were still under Gu Shanhai's wing learning, and their progression in strength was fairly average.

But this couldn't be blamed on them; the cultivation from the "Longevity Scripture" itself greatly enhances their physical body and soul, naturally slowing down their cultivation speed.

It's just that their progress in this world is pretty remarkable.

If someone can reach the Postnatal Realm in two years, they are definitely a treasure within their faction.

Oh, the protagonists are not included; if it's a protagonist, they're likely to be targeted, oppressed, and excluded, such treatment is only for supporting characters or antagonists.

Qing Feng and Ming Yue chatted a bit more and then left to do homework; they naturally had to study when they came out to practice.

Gu Shanhai took out dragon skin and continued crafting his Seven-star Whip.

Actually, Gu Shanhai has quite a lot of dragon skin; besides dragon skin, he also has dragon meat, dragon bones, dragon eggs, and so on.

All obtained from those first-tier players; for them, these materials are mostly reserved as resources, such as asking natives to craft equipment or using them for feeding, cooking, etc., and most players who get these materials are combat-type players.

Whether it's dragon slaying or whatever, it's basically not rare.

Life-type players simply don't do these things; instead, they produce resources in their player space through their system or directly hire power-levelling services to take them down instances, without the need to fight monsters.

As for letting life-type players fight monsters themselves, that's strange, like expecting a tailor to raise silkworms for fabric, it's bizarre, they should just buy it.

Life-type players might have combat capabilities, but why fight when the profits from making various equipment and items are far greater?

You struggle to fight monsters, perhaps not even getting good equipment, while life-type players can make good equipment by acquiring materials themselves, sell them for Game Coins, and keep acquiring them, with profits from each item of equipment or item at least a hundredfold, even doing customized orders, just providing technology without materials can earn a substantial income.

With this ability, why struggle to gather materials by fighting monsters, instead of using their advantage, such players are either dirt poor or have long shifted systems to focus on gold farming.

"Speaking of which, the performance of the Seven-star Whip in the original seems a bit disappointing." Gu Shanhai suddenly thought of this.

Sun Wukong transformed his legs into Ferrous Iron Legs, making him no longer fear the Seven-star Whip.

"Indeed, can't think too much..." Gu Shanhai also had a strange expression, the more he thought, the more disappointing it seemed.

"Fortunately this isn't the original, it's a knock-off version, so having more power isn't an issue."

"A single whip stroke guarantees driving off mountains and rivers, chasing stars and suns."

Gu Shanhai could be sure Zhen Yuanzi definitely had other magical artifacts, but there was no record of them in the original "Journey to the West," so he had no knock-off samples.

Moreover, the Seven-star Whip wasn't said to have any special effect, likely just an ordinary whip.

In "Journey to the West," dragons didn't have high status, so dragon skin wasn't likely anything rare.

In other worlds, dragons might be high-level races, but in "Journey to the West," they might have a status similar to dogs, with meat dogs on the table and trained police dogs, the former are dragons made into delicacies like dragon liver and phoenix marrow, the latter are the Four Sea Dragon Kings, River Dragon King kinds of dragons.

"The more I think about it, the more ridiculous it seems."
