Is Lord Gu Xi here?

Gu Xi, who was about to leave his residence, heard a sound coming from outside the door. He leaned out from the second floor and glanced outside.

He noticed a player who didn't look like an undead being calling out outside his building.

Gu Xi glanced at his attire, feeling somewhat puzzled.

Who is this? What are they doing here?

There was no need for Gu Xi to ask; Li Yufang, who had been following Gu Xi, appeared directly outside the door and exchanged a few words with the player.

Only then did Li Yufang nod to Gu Xi.

Gu Xi has been with Li Yufang for so long, and the two work together quite well.

Upon seeing Li Yufang's actions, Gu Xi immediately understood that the player in front of him was no ordinary person.

Gu Xi then appeared in front of the player in a flash.

Gu Xi hadn't felt anything while upstairs, but when he stood in front of this player, he couldn't help but frown.

He clearly sensed an aura of rejection emanating from this player.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Gu Xi is only level 29 now. Having come into contact with luck early on, Gu Xi is quite sensitive to luck.

Gu Xi could tell at a glance that the player in front of him looked similar to a human, but he was not human.

What race?

After resting for a moment, I asked a question.

"From the Wanshang Clan."

The players who came over were very polite to Gu Xi, and immediately introduced themselves, "My name is Wan Quan, greetings to Lord Gu Xi."

Gu Xi thought about it carefully for a moment before he remembered what the Wan Shang Clan was all about.

The Wanshang Clan was originally a prominent family among humans with the surnames Wan and Shang.

After obtaining four pieces of red clothing, they voluntarily withdrew from the human race and formed a Wanshang tribe.

Although we don't know what price they paid, it is said that when the Wanshang Clan was founded, they only had one red garment.

After that, the Wanshang Clan only had two pieces of red clothing on public display.

If they hadn't been backed by humans, they might have been wiped out in just a few years.

However, the Wanshang tribe can be quite stubborn at times. Even now, they still have no intention of returning to humanity. They only provide humanity with a protection fee every year, hoping that humanity will provide support when needed.

Later, someone said that the Wanshang clan left too early.

They went out because they had a set of red outfits.

At that time, even the dual red armor resonance of humans was nonexistent.

Even if they are tempted by the components of such a combination kit, it's useless.

Having a lot of red-tier equipment sets is useless if they're not equipped on someone.

When the Wanshang Clan left, they received news of a combination kit.

In order to assemble the kit, they voluntarily gave up three pieces of red armor and separated their entire race from humans.

It could be said that if they had not separated from humanity, their ancestor would be considered the first human player to have two red-tier equipment.

It is precisely because of this that the Wanshang tribe is quite famous among humans.

When Gu Xi was studying at the Underworld University, he had already heard about the Wanshang Clan.

Why did the Wanshang Clan end up here this time?

Although it is unknown what the red equipment set in the hands of the Wan Shang Clan is, one thing is certain: the Wan Shang Clan is not following the undead route.

They don't even have a single necromancer there.

Gu Xi, who didn't know what they were there for, finally took the initiative to ask.

What are you planning to do this time?

"Lord Gu Xi, it's like this, our ancestor has encountered a troublesome matter."

Previously, we always asked Teacher Jun to handle these matters. However, Teacher Jun hasn't been seeing any visitors lately, so we had no choice but to turn to you.

Wan Quan was a shrewd person; he directly stated his purpose and even brought up Teacher Jun to endorse him.

"Teacher Jun? Could you elaborate?"

Gu Xi had no idea what was going on.

But judging from what Wan Quan said, the Wan Shang Clan's invitation to Teacher Jun is probably a big deal.

"That's right. They've been spreading rumors that our Wanshang Clan is a group of Wanjia and Shangjia that separated from the human race. In reality, our Wanshang Clan is just one family."

Our ancestor was a body with two souls, one surnamed Wan and the other surnamed Shang.

Every 150 years, the soul awakens once.

That's why there's the saying "ten thousand families and merchants".

And every 1,500 years, there will be a major interaction.

At this point, both souls will be unconscious, and the ancestor's body will be in a semi-dead state, with life constantly slipping away.

No matter how you try to fix it, you can't fix it.

Only a powerful necromancer can summon my ancestor's soul back in times like these.

In the past, we always asked Teacher Jun to step in.

"Now that Teacher Jun is away, Lord Gu Xi, you are the strongest necromancer among humans, so we shamelessly came looking for you."

"Find the soul back?"
"You guys are really going all out. You can't just randomly search for souls!"

Gu Xi was speechless upon hearing this, but not because of the dual souls within one body, but because of their claim of finding the soul back.

What methods do necromancers use to find souls?

Spells of summoning souls, spells of controlling souls.

Gu Xi didn't believe that a veteran player who had mastered the resonance of two red-tier equipment would let someone touch his soul.

Even a part of the soul in a dual-soul entity is not acceptable.

So there must be something wrong behind this.

Perhaps this is why Teacher Jun is unwilling to continue communicating with them.

If Gu Xi was having tea with Teacher Jun at a coffee shop on the street yesterday, how come he's saying Teacher Jun isn't seeing guests today?

Gu Xi was also puzzled, wondering why Teacher Jun didn't explain the situation.

If he had known this would happen, he wouldn't have stayed in the City of Shadows. He would have gone back to Alydovi City, and Gu Xi didn't believe they would have come looking for him.

Although he was thinking to himself, Gu Xi had no chance to escape and was now blocked at the door. In addition, Teacher Jun was often invited to the meeting, so Gu Xi hesitated for a moment.

Just then, Wan Quan took out a box and placed it in front of Gu Xi.

"Lord Gu Xi, this is the price we paid for inviting Teacher Jun in the past."

After saying that, Wan Quan immediately opened the box and showed Gu Xi what was inside.

Gu Xi glanced at it only once before looking up at Wan Quan.

"Don't you have no necromancers? Where did this thing come from?"

It turns out that what's inside this box is a fortune weaker than death.

It looked like it had been forcibly pulled from a dead person.

"Weren't our ancestors supposed to be one body with two souls?"

This stuff overflows when another soul is asleep.

However, not only can we not use this thing, it will also affect our ancestors.

So we've been collecting these, and we use them each time to ask Teacher Jun for help.

Upon seeing Gu Xi's gaze, Wan Quan knew that something was amiss, so he quickly began to explain.
