Chapter 429: Chapter 430: Do Not Look for Me Anymore

"Heh, Taoist, you got it right." Chu You looked at the Divine Power Awakening stone in his hand, satisfied.

The second modified Awakened Sky Stone increased its success rate of upgrading from the eight to the Nine-Awakening state by 35%, reaching a 47% success rate, almost half! That’s extraordinarily rare. Do you know what Nine-Awakening state Divine Power Equipment means?

Alright, it means I’m ready to soar. I’m already soaring but this would take me higher and faster.

In any kind of Divine Power Equipment, it’s uncommon for it to awaken to the Nine-Awakening state, even in the previous life. It took a full decade of gaming. That shows how difficult it is to reach the Nine-awakening state. You have no idea how much high-quality equipment is consumed. And you can’t die, if you do, you will drop a rank. Also, it typically signals the birth of a Great Divine Power or Divine Arts.

Spending 4 million Gold Coins to raise a few success points and doing it twice, spending a total of 8 million Gold Coins. Perhaps only Chu You could afford this extravagance, whether in his past or present life.

If the awakening failed, even if Chu You would not be emotionally disturbed, any onlookers might feel heartbroken.

Have you ever seen someone spend 4 million Gold Coins on such a dicey, luck-based operation?!

Chu You would not engage in such a risky operation here. After saying goodbye to the other party, he walked out. But as he was preparing to exit, he was stopped by the same female Taoist.

"Are you Night Ghost?" She unexpectedly called out his name.

"That’s me," he confirmed.

"There are many similar people outside who seem extremely interested in you. They’ve blocked the main entrance. Although I’ve already sent for the guards to disperse the crowd, it will take some time. If you find these people to be a nuisance, I can take you out through the back door."

So, that’s it. Presumably, most of the players outside are reporters who heard that he was here and rushed over, hoping to get firsthand information from him.

Want to interview me? Can you afford a fee of 1 million Gold Coins?!

"I see, those people are indeed a nuisance. Please lead me out another way."

"Alright, follow me." Chu You then followed this female Taoist through a long corridor to a garden. There was a small door. She opened it, peeked outside, and then gestured to Chu You, "Please leave through here, and come back another time."

It was a narrow alleyway with few pedestrians, and no players in sight.

Chu You casually picked a direction and went out to the main street. He hailed a passing carriage, got in, and told the driver his destination.

His carriage soon brought him to Prosperous Street. Inside the carriage, Chu You opened his bag and found an item: the Mysterious Raincoat!

This raincoat was something he had bought from the Black Cloud Trade Group before he changed his job. There were three of them. They could hide the ’red name’ status acquired from maliciously killing players, and also his face. Once worn, he looked like a commoner in a simple raincoat, his face shielded by a hat. After paying the fare, Chu You disembarked the carriage and walked down the street.

"Ah, I didn’t expect I would be plagued by the troubles of a celebrity."

The street was a player hotspot, crowded with players. Players of the seven big countries had set up a marketplace here. Honestly speaking, dressed as he was, Chu You didn’t stand out; there were players wearing all kinds of odd clothing, some dressed even more mysteriously than him.

Not all players were vending equipment here, some female players were here to make a quick buck. Some news had attracted them here. Many female players had found out about this place in Huaxia main city, knowing the male players here were either wealthy or had influential backgrounds.

Not many female players were engaged in the flesh trade here, most were hoping to find a benefactor and develop an offline relationship.

Chu You navigated through the crowd, arriving in front of his Shanhai Exchange. He watched for a while, and without stepping inside the Exchange, he approached two bored-looking female players. The girls were leaning against a wall, their eyes unfocused as they looked at the passing crowd. Suddenly, their focus sharpened and landed on a player in a raincoat standing near them.

"Are you ladies appointed by Yue Xianfei?"

The two girls stared at the strange man in front of them who had spoken these words, feeling as if they were underground party members meeting in secret.

"Yes, indeed. And who are you?"

Judging by the girls’ reactions, Yue Xianfei hadn’t told them who they would be dealing with.

"Tell Yue Xianfei... uh," should he tell her to stop sending spies? "Tell her not to contact me anymore. That’s all." With that, he turned to leave.

"Hey, you didn’t tell us who you are."

"That’s not important. She’ll understand. Just pass on my message." Then he stepped into the Shanhai Exchange.

The two girls looked at each other. One of them immediately contacted Yue Xianfei: "Boss, someone just told us to tell you... uh, to stop contacting him."

At that moment, Yue Xianfei had a Sacred Level weapon with no level requirements in her hands, killing dungeon monsters. When she heard the message, she froze.

She had finally heard from him, only to be met with such a cold response.

Yue Xianfei already knew about the matter of the god-level bigwig from Yan Country. But she couldn’t really make heads or tails of it. Regardless, she was worried about him. However, being a player from Yan Country, she could only watch helplessly from afar. Even without these obstacles, Yue Xianfei had a vague feeling that this situation was more complicated than she could handle on her own. It was a tricky business involving government channels.

"Did you get a good look at his face?" Yue Xianfei immediately stopped fighting monsters, transferring the dungeon pressure to her teammates, but they dared not complain.

"We couldn’t see his face clearly. He was wearing a weird outfit that covered his face."

"Was he tall?" Yue Xianfei wanted to confirm this one point.

"He was incredibly tall and slender."

"Where is he now?" The tone of Yue Xianfei’s voice rose sharply.

"He went into the Shanhai Exchange right next to us."

"I’m on my way! " she declared and used her Return Skill without hesitation, leaving her five teammates flabbergasted.

"B... Boss, the dungeon boss is almost here..." one of her teammates said with difficulty.

"Boss, we can only get into this dungeon twice a week!" The teammates tried one last time to persuade her to stay.

But by the time they finished speaking, Yue Xianfei had already disappeared, leaving behind five teammates with expressions of despair.

Chu You entered the Exchange, took the settlement gold coins - a total of 1.12 million - and then put some other equipment up for sale, like the Sacred Level Bason Shield, level 45, for 2.2 million Gold Coins.

Finally, he went upstairs and came to a closed door that only he could open. He opened it, stepped inside, and used his Return Skill.

When Yue Xianfei hurried over, the man who often appeared in her dreams had already vanished.
