After turning off the autonomous attack mode of the Flame Magic Tower, Zhou Xiruo waved at the Silver Shadow Leopard from afar. “We’re leaving! Take good care of yourself. We’ll come and see you again if there’s a chance!” Wang Xiao couldn’t help but laugh when he heard that. “Silver-quality exotic beasts don’t have intelligence. They don’t understand what you’re saying.”
...“It’s none of your business! What if it understands?”
Zhou Xiruo rolled her eyes at Wang Xiao and took out another handful of [Energy Cores] to throw outside. “These are for you! You must grow up well. Don’t learn from such a person!”
“Can you not diss me? What kind of person am I?”
A few black lines appeared on Wang Xiao’s forehead as he urged impatiently, “Are you done? Hurry up and leave!”
“I’m done! I’m done!”
Zhou Xiruo smiled mischievously and waved at the Silver Shadow Leopard.
Then, the two of them crushed the secret realm key and left.
The Silver Shadow Leopard flashed to the vicinity of the base and swallowed the [Energy Cores].
Then, with a flash of light, the [Floating Light and Shadow] skill was dispelled. The Silver Shadow Leopard, which was originally only the size of a calf, grew several times in the blink of an eye!
If Wang Xiao tore open another [Identification Scroll] at this moment, he would discover that it was not only the size of the Silver Shadow Leopard that had changed, but even its grade had changed from “peak silver level level three” to “peak gold level three”.
Golden light flashed and Wang Xiao and Zhou Xiruo returned to the basement of the Lord’s Shop’s headquarters.
As soon as Wang Xiao stabilized his feet and opened his eyes, he saw Lin Xiang standing in front of him with a smile.
“Mr. Wang, are you satisfied with your gains from this trip to the secret realm?”
Lin Xiang greeted him with a smile and handed him a cup of tea.
“It’s not bad.”
Wang Xiao smiled ambiguously. When he took the cup, he realized that the tea was already a little cold. It seemed that Lin Xiang had been waiting for a while.
Sensing Lin Xiang’s importance to him, Wang Xiao thought for a moment and asked, “We haven’t found the resources we want yet. I wonder if Manager Lin can let me enter another small secret realm?”
“You didn’t find it?”
Lin Xiang frowned in confusion. “Only the military and our people have entered this secret realm. How can there be no [Breakthrough Stones]?”
“Yes, there were, but it’s a little too little.”
Wang Xiao smiled helplessly. “The highest level of mutated beasts here is silver level three, and there are very few of them. We only obtained a few in total.”
In fact, Wang Xiao was only lacking a breakthrough stone now. He deliberately lowered the number because he was afraid that Lin Xiang would not agree to them entering the sealed secret realm continuously. After all, there was still a certain risk.
However, Lin Xiang did not seem to consider the risk at all. He immediately smiled bitterly when he heard this. “Mr. Wang, the academy’s ranking assessment is imminent. I understand very well that you want to increase your strength. If you want to enter the secret realm, just say it. There’s no need to lie to me, right?”
Wang Xiao’s heart skipped a beat. His first thought was that Lin Xiang knew what they had obtained, but on second thought, he felt that it was unlikely.
This was because only he and Zhou Xiruo knew what they had obtained from this secret realm exploration.
Thinking of this, Wang Xiao calmed down again. “Manager Lin, what are you talking about? Why don’t I understand?”
Seeing that Wang Xiao refused to admit it, the helplessness on Lin Xiang’s face intensified. “You said that the highest level beast there is silver level three, but according to our intelligence, there are gold or even platinum-quality exotic beasts in this secret realm!”
“What?!”
Zhou Xiruo exclaimed and could not help but look at Wang Xiao and ask, “Didn’t you say that you didn’t see any powerful mutated beasts?”
“I really didn’t see it!”
Wang Xiao hurriedly denied, “Although I didn’t go to some places, I would definitely have sensed something if there were high-level mutated beasts, but there was nothing!”
Seeing Wang Xiao’s shocked gaze, Zhou Xiruo knew that he was not lying. She could only look at Lin Xiang and ask, “Manager Lin, the mutated beasts we encountered inside are indeed only silver quality. Did you make a mistake?”
At this moment, Lin Xiang also sensed that something was wrong. His expression immediately became subtle. “But even if we’ve made a mistake, would it really be possible for the military to make a mistake? If there aren’t high-level mutated beasts inside, why would the military seal this secret realm?”
Wang Xiao fell silent.
Lin Xiang’s words made sense, but they had indeed not encountered any high-level mutated beasts. What was going on?
“Could there still be a mistake?”
Zhou Xiruo raised another idea. “I’m not saying that the information is wrong. I’m saying that the secret realm is wrong. Perhaps we only entered an ordinary small secret realm.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the cloaked man beside him said, “Impossible!
We’re connected to [Thorn Canyon]. There’s definitely no mistake!”
Zhou Xiruo was about to refute when Wang Xiao waved his hand and said, “It’s indeed impossible. If it was an ordinary small secret realm, the drop rate of the [Breakthrough Stones] would not be so high.”
The drop rate of the [Breakthrough Stones] in the new secret realm was higher. This was a well-known rule. Zhou Xiruo immediately stopped talking.
After a short silence, Wang Xiao sighed and shook his head. “Forget it. Perhaps I was really careless. Moreover, there’s no point in investigating such a problem. ”
Zhou Xiruo and Lin Xiang nodded in unison. Lin Xiang asked again, “Then do we still need to arrange another small secret realm? Let me say in advance that we have already explored the other small secret realms many times, so we can’t guarantee that you will definitely obtain the [Breakthrough Stone].”
Wang Xiao originally planned to explore another small secret realm, but when he heard that he could not guarantee the drop rate of the [Breakthrough Stones], he finally chose to give up.
He still had 30,000 words of battle comprehension to write today. If the other party could not guarantee that he would obtain the [Breakthrough Stones] , there was no need to waste time.
After a short rest, the three of them returned to Kaiyang City through the [Ancient Teleportation Gate].
After bidding farewell to Lin Xiang, Wang Xiao and Zhou Xiruo left the Lord’s Shop. However, before they could walk far, they heard someone shout, “Brother Wang! Wang Xiao!”
“Brother Li?”
Wang Xiao turned around and realized that the person who had found him was Li Kaifu. His expression immediately became subtle. He and Zhou Xiruo had entered the secret realm for two hours. Could it be that Li Kaifu had been waiting here?
While he was thinking Li Kaifu had already walked over. He still has an extremely refined smile on his face. “Brother Wang, what big matter did you discuss with Manager Lin? You made me wait for so long!”
“I’m really sorry. I didn’t know Brother Li was waiting for me either. Otherwise, I would definitely have hurried up.”
Wang Xiao casually said politely. He paused for a moment and said, “However, I indeed don’t have any plans to sell resources recently. I’m afraid I can only disappoint you. ”
When Li Kaifu heard this, he waved his hand repeatedly. “Actually, I was waiting for you because I need your help with something.”
Hearing that Li Kaifu was not buying resources, Wang Xiao heaved a sigh of relief. “Brother Li, there’s no harm in telling me!”
“It’s like this—”
Li Kaifu took out a [Contract Scroll]. “I’m a student of the Nine Heavens Academy. We have a competition tomorrow. The academy head feels that connections are also a part of strength, so he allows us to find help outside the school. Of course, we can only find lords below level three.”
“After thinking about it carefully, I hope you can help me.. As long as you can let me win, you can name your conditions!”
