Chapter 1330: Chapter 968, I’m Not Going Anywhere

Kurt was momentarily at a loss for words, his fingers subconsciously rubbing the ring on his hand.

The topic shifted from joining the Endless Desert to ghostly soul trading between both parties.

Indeed, it was a fitting conversation between Necromancers.

The quickest way to upgrade ghosts is through the devouring between souls.

The Necromancer’s notorious reputation partly stems from the soul-capturing rituals, gathering a large number of living souls, and extracting life souls to nourish their ghosts.

But now, with the association overseeing everything, the Endless Desert has clear laws.

Such methods have long been forbidden.

The trading proposal brought up casually by this young hero was more unbelievable than spotting a whale in the desert.

Where does the confidence come from to use ghosts as a bargaining chip?

"Are you sure?" Kurt asked, his voice a bit dry, immediately followed by a light cough.

"I’m sure. Since I’m proposing it, I naturally have my own methods. It depends on whether you need it," Wu Heng said flatly.

Kurt took a deep breath and nodded, "This matter is beyond what I can decide. I’ll write to the Endless Desert and see what the Immortal Monarch decides. Of course... I believe they will agree to your trade. After all, a reasonable trade benefits both parties."

Wu Heng’s brow slightly raised, needing approval from the Immortal Emperor for ghost trading.

Writing to the Endless Desert, this back-and-forth could take months.

By then, maybe he would have already tricked some ancient skills from the Lady.

He pondered for a moment and said, "That’s fine. Upgrading ghosts isn’t an easy task. Helping them requires a considerable cost. You can explain directly to the Monarch that I seek a Level 18 or above skill book, ritual records, or special items equivalent to first-class merit from the association as a reward."

Kurt paused in his actions and nodded, "I will specify your requirements in the letter."

Wu Heng also smiled, steering away from this topic, and asked, "Do you have any plans yourself?"

Kurt said, "I will stay on the island for the time being, but rest assured, I will obey the local regulations and not cause you any trouble."

"Restrict your ghosts. There are many high-level professionals from the association on the island. Don’t cause any damage," Wu Heng straightforwardly warned.

"Understood, I will restrict the range of the ghost’s activities."

Wu Heng nodded, "Alright then, let it be for now. Inform city hall to notify me if there’s any news."

"Yes, Hero Lord." Kurt stood up and saluted again, "Then I’ll take my leave and won’t disturb you any further."

With that, he took his skeleton and left the meeting room.

After the other party left, Xiao Xiao appeared from the side, "Uncle, let’s go play in the desert! I’ve never been to the desert."

"It’s just sand, what’s there to play with? You can see the sand at the beach, nothing special," Wu Heng replied to her.

"How can that be! Aren’t there pyramids?" Xiao Xiao murmured.

"Not on this side," Wu Heng said.

Xiao Xiao realized and gave an embarrassed smile.

Annette, on the side, chimed in, "Looking at their dress, it’s not as good as it is here."

"True," Xiao Xiao said, then circled back to Wu Heng, "Uncle, if you help them upgrade their ghosts, won’t they become stronger and then attack us?"

"If they had the ability to have ghosts surpass us, they wouldn’t need us to help upgrade them," Wu Heng said.

"I don’t quite understand," Xiao Xiao muttered.

Annette laughed, "They don’t have the ability to surpass your level."

"Oh, oh!" Xiao Xiao nodded.

Wu Heng glanced at the time, stood up, and said to Annette, "If there’s nothing else here, you should go home early."

"Okay, Master." Annette smiled, her white drooping ears swaying.

Wu Heng reached out to touch her fluffy ears, and Annette coyly leaned forward.

After confirming there was nothing else to do,

[Teleportation Technique] was activated, and the figure disappeared from the meeting room.

...

The figure reappeared, already returned to the Island Lord’s Mansion.

"Uncle, I’m going back to my room. Call me if you need anything!" Xiao Xiao flew by quickly.

Before Wu Heng could respond, her figure had already passed through the wall and vanished.

As he walked towards the door,

he saw Shanaela lazily lying on a wicker lounge chair, wearing sunglasses, her light dress slowly rising and falling with her breaths.

She looked like a stunning young woman enjoying a sunbath on the beach.

Wu Heng sat down on the edge of the lounge chair, his hand sliding under her clothes along her waist, and as he grasped, he touched the amber pendant at her collarbone.

Shanaela asked, "Who came from the city hall side?"

"Someone from the Endless Desert, the Immortal Emperor’s Messenger!" Wu Heng said.

"The Immortal Emperor’s Messenger?" Shanaela grabbed his mischief-making wrist, her sunglasses slipping to her nose to reveal her gem-like eyes. "What was he here for?"

The Immortal Emperor was also a fairly legendary hero, with quite a reputation outside.

As the president of the largest Wood Elf Chamber of Commerce, Shanaela naturally had heard of this hero.

Wu Heng feigned mystery, "Guess what!"

"What should I guess, just tell me," Shanaela lightly pinched the back of his hand.

Wu Heng told the story, "They invited me to join the Endless Desert, promising a position no less than the leader of the association after joining."

Shanaela suddenly sat up, about to speak, when Wu Heng continued, "Don’t rush! I didn’t agree. We’re doing well here, why go to the desert?"

"Did he leave?" Shanaela asked after she settled down.

"No, I proposed a trade with the Endless Desert to exchange for some Necromancer-related knowledge. He stayed to wait for news from there," Wu Heng said while gently kneading with his hands.
