Chapter 176: #176 - Chapter 176 Cultivating Wings

Three delinquent youths gathered together, talking about women and boasting. It wasn't until a long time passed that they got to the main topic.

Wang Lei said, "Boss, Zhong-ge, a spatial passage has appeared near Ningliu City. I heard it's connected to a medium-sized world, and the resources there are very abundant! The Ningliu City Lord's Mansion has already set up an array to stabilize the passage. Many Gu Masters have formed teams to go and reap the benefits. How about we also form a treasure hunting team and make a fortune?"

This is how many Gu Masters survive: wherever a spatial passage appears, they flock to it.

In the Gu Master world, the known resources are controlled by various major forces. Some independent Gu Masters either join a large force or can only rush to spatial passages everywhere!

For example, if a spatial passage appears in Sky City, as long as the resources on the other side are considered abundant, they will set up an array to stabilize the passage. When the time comes, large and small groups and organizations will send out hunting teams to plunder resources from the world on the other side of the spatial passage.

This is the main way to enhance the strength of the Gu Master world. Therefore, major cities have the obligation to provide convenience to the hunting teams.

Of course, after the hunting teams return from another world, they also have to pay a certain amount of resources to the force that built the passage!

This time, with the emergence of the spatial passage in Ningliu City, many hunting teams have already rushed there.

Even many students from Sky City Academy have formed teams to go.

That's why Wang Lei made this suggestion!

Zhong Li directly shook his head: "Fighting and killing isn't suitable for me. It's much better to do business like I do, staying safely in the rear. I don't have to risk my life, and I earn a lot!"

Wang Lei said with an envious tone: "Zhong-ge, you have a good brain and know how to do business. I can't do it. I can't even figure out how much money I have in my own pocket!"

He then asked Wang Xiao: "Boss, how about we form a team and make a killing? Let's call the two 'big sisters-in-law,' and I'll find a few more people from the school. We can form a small hunting team!"

Wang Xiao also shook his head: "If it were in the major main cities, I would definitely go! But Ningliu City is out of the question! I've offended Luo Xiao, the 'Night Emperor.' You all know how terrifying that guy is! If I leave the main city now and encounter him, I'm dead! So, before I have the ability to protect myself, I won't run around!"

This was the first time Wang Lei had heard about Wang Xiao having a feud with Luo Xiao. He was immediately startled!

In recent years, Luo Xiao has committed several more tragic cases and is already among the top names on the Righteous Alliance's wanted list! He is a villainous boss who can stop children from crying at night!

Wang Lei couldn't help but sigh: "Boss is indeed the boss, being resented by Luo Xiao and still acting like he doesn't care at all. If it were someone else, they would have been living in fear all day long!"

After this matter was finished, Wang Xiao asked Zhong Li: "Zhong Fatty, how is your sister's condition?"

Zhong Li shook his head and said: "She'll be fine after a few days of recuperation. This is an old problem in our family! The Cold Jade Cicada grows by absorbing cold energy. With it staying in the dantian and constantly spewing cold energy, the people of our Zhong family will suffer a backlash of cold energy every few years. Moreover, long-term erosion by cold energy reduces the lifespan of the Gu Master. There's no way around it!"

Speaking of this, Zhong Li also sighed: "Alas! If I become the head of the Zhong family, the first thing I'll do is destroy the secret recipe for refining the Cold Jade Cicada! So as not to leave this thing behind to harm future generations!"

Wang Xiao glared at him: "Say these words to your father and grandfather, and see if you get beaten!"

Zhong Li said dejectedly: "Don't mention it! I said it last year, and I got beaten badly, saying that I was letting down our ancestors!"

Wang Lei asked: "Isn't there a way to solve this hidden danger?"

Zhong Li: "Generations of Zhong family members have wanted to solve the hidden danger of the 'Cold Jade Cicada,' but none have succeeded!"

At this time, Wang Xiao took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Zhong Li.

Zhong Li asked suspiciously: "What is this?"

Wang Xiao picked up his tea and took a sip: "Just look and you'll know, right?"

Zhong Li opened the paper and read: "Jade Yang Pill... What kind of pill is this? I've never heard of it!"

He continued to read, and his expression became more and more serious.

Finally, he said excitedly: "Wang Xiao, this... this is the pill formula to eliminate the hidden danger of the Zhong family's Cold Jade Cicada?"

Wang Xiao nodded: "Zhong Fatty, what do you think, am I loyal enough? Knowing about the hidden danger of your family's inherited natal Gu, I immediately went to find a solution for you!

There's a saying that a lone yin cannot produce, and a lone yang cannot grow! The harmony of yin and yang is the foundation of the Great Dao!

The ice power of the Cold Jade Cicada belongs to the ultimate yin power. Long-term stagnation in the body will cause hidden dangers!

The Jade Yang Pill on this pill formula belongs to the warm yang, and after taking it, it can harmonize the cold energy so that it will no longer cause harm to the body!

In the future, let your sister take one Jade Yang Pill every year, and this hidden danger will never occur again, nor will it affect the lifespan of your Zhong family members!"

Zhong Li was so excited that his mouth trembled!

He said: "Good brother! We, the entire Zhong family, will remember this kindness! In the future, we'll go through water and fire at your command!"

Wang Xiao waved his hand: "Alright, Zhong Fatty! I, Wang Xiao, am wholeheartedly devoted to my brothers! You don't need to say words of gratitude. We're family, so no need for that!"

Zhong Li picked up a cup of tea: "Brother! Let me offer you a cup of tea in place of wine! Another day, I'll host a banquet at the Haitian Tower and let's have some fun!"

After he finished speaking, he drank it all in one gulp and then said: "I'll go home first and give the pill formula to the old man. Brother, I won't thank you for your great kindness. Goodbye!"

Wang Xiao waved his hand: "Go, go! Such a big man, so damn long-winded!"

So Zhong Li left in a hurry!

Speaking of this, I have to mention the system again!

The Gu Master world doesn't have the Jade Yang Pill. Wang Xiao haggled with the system for a long time before he got this pill formula.

After Zhong Li left, Wang Xiao looked at Wang Lei and asked him: "Lei-zi, your natal Gu hasn't been decided yet. What Gu are you planning to choose?"

Wang Lei shook his head: "Boss, you know my family's situation! I still have an older brother above me. Our Wang family is a small family, and all the resources are supplied to my older brother! I only got a Golden Gu, and I have to rely on myself for the rest!

My Golden Gu is a grasshopper. The speed is okay, but the attack and defense are very average. If it's a natal Gu, it's a bit of a drag!"

Wang Xiao nodded. He took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Wang Lei.

"Lei-zi, since you recognized me as the boss, the boss can't treat you badly! This is the Gu refining secret recipe for the Purple Jade Spirit Gu 'Double-Tailed Emperor Scorpion'! Let me state in advance that you can only use this secret recipe yourself. Without my permission, you are not allowed to spread it, including to the family behind you!"

"Purple... Purple Jade Spirit Gu!"

Wang Lei's voice trembled!

This was the spirit Gu he had dreamed of. He didn't expect Wang Xiao to give him the secret recipe for the Purple Jade Spirit Gu!

He really chose the right boss!

In the Gu Master world, for most people, Orange Crystal Spirit Gu are legendary things that they wouldn't even dare to dream of!

Purple Jade Spirit Gu represents the upper-level power of the Gu Master world!

And the Gu refining secret recipes for Purple Jade Spirit Gu are monopolized by major forces and large families.

Taking Golden Bell City as an example, the three major families of Zhong, Yan, and Hua each control a unique Gu refining secret recipe for Purple Jade Spirit Gu!

The Wang family, where Wang Lei came from, is just a small family in Golden Bell City, not as good as the top, but more than enough compared to the bottom! Their highest inheritance is only the Golden Spirit Gu, and they don't have the Purple Jade Spirit Gu!

Therefore, Wang Lei's eyes lit up when he saw this secret recipe!

However, when he saw the densely packed Gu refining materials listed on the secret recipe, a basin of cold water was poured on his heart!

Because there are several precious things on it that they can't afford even if they sell their Wang family!

Even with the secret recipe, he may not be able to collect all the Gu refining materials in his lifetime!

Wang Xiao had already thought of this!

He smiled and said: "Lei-zi, you can go to Zhong Li to ask for Gu refining materials later. Refine the spirit Gu first, and I will say hello to Zhong Li!"

Wang Lei said with a wry smile: "Boss, I, Wang Lei, am fortunate to have recognized you as the boss for the rest of my life! However, I feel a headache when I look at these Gu refining materials. They are really too precious. You gave me the Gu refining secret recipe, and I am already very grateful. How can I have the face to ask for Gu refining materials!"

Wang Xiao thought for a while and said: "How about this! You sign a one-hundred-year guard contract with the Chongxiao Trading Company! In the future, if there's nothing to do, go to work at Chongxiao Tower! The materials for refining the Double-Tailed Emperor Scorpion will be considered an advance on your salary for one hundred years!"

As soon as Wang Lei heard this, he immediately agreed!

Don't think that a one-hundred-year contract is long!

But the Purple Jade Spirit Gu is even more precious!

Wang Lei is now a level three peak Gu Master. With his cultivation talent, even if he spends time, he can become a level four Gu Master in a few years.

The lifespan of a level four Gu Master is as high as three hundred years!

Using one hundred years to exchange for a Purple Jade Spirit Gu, if this news spreads, countless people will break their heads to beg for this opportunity!

Hearing Wang Xiao's proper arrangements, Wang Lei's heart was already full of gratitude to him.

For Wang Xiao, what he valued was not Wang Lei's strength, but his loyalty to himself.

Wang Xiao wants to reach the peak, so he naturally has to cultivate his own power.

Wang Lei is the first cultivation target he has chosen.

Before he decided to cultivate Wang Lei, he had already peeked into Wang Lei's memory through the Dream-Eating Bug. Only after discovering that he was loyal to him would he give him the Gu refining secret recipe and the Gu refining materials!

Otherwise, do you think Wang Xiao has such a good heart? He is not a philanthropist!
