Chapter 520 - 408: A Stubborn Commoner!

Chapter 520: Chapter 408: A Stubborn Commoner!

Eternal Soul Power points!

That would be Level 420!

Is that how it is?

Wu Xiaode felt incredibly exhilarated.

If that were indeed true, he would immediately need to upgrade the "Silent Demon Mist" level once more.

—Until the Demon Destroyer could no longer see the Book of the Dead, nor see him!

He looked toward the Book of the Dead.

The Book of the Dead naturally understood his intention and immediately displayed a line of ice crystal letters:

"Please complete the exclusive professional assignment first."

"After completing the task, your level will be determined by your new profession."

"Only then can you improve your skills."

So that’s how it is.

What are we waiting for?

Just as Wu Xiaode was about to speak, he suddenly felt himself floating up.

—That’s not right!

He was clearly still sitting in the passenger seat of the SUV!

He composed himself and thought calmly for a moment, finally understanding.

The leap had been too great.

He wasn’t able to adapt for a moment, hence the illusion.

"Your aura keeps strengthening," Ulysses suddenly said.

Wu Xiaode silently sensed the changes in his body and soul power, only feeling that he temporarily couldn’t adjust.

From 160 soul power points directly to 420.

He needed a bit of time to adapt.

"Um, get out of the car and go to the supermarket — buy a lot of ingredients and stuff that a pregnant woman can eat and use, bring some diapers as well. I’ll sit in the car for a while," Wu Xiaode instructed.

"Okay, I’ll be back soon," Ulysses said with a smile.

He parked the car by the roadside, shook his body to retract his wings, opened the car door, and stepped out.

The car was left with only Wu Xiaode inside.

He adjusted the seat flat, lay back on it, and while experiencing the changes in his power, he looked toward the Book of the Dead.

"Exclusive professional assignment..."

Wu Xiaode muttered softly, a complex feeling emerging in his heart.

He always felt that he should be more cautious.

The Human Emperor had said that at Level 200, one might create a "Surge."

If he, by completing the exclusive professional task, gained the opportunity to create a "Surge" —

What kind of "Surge" would he create?

No reference.

He had no idea how to choose, nor how to proceed.

To anticipate is to establish; not to anticipate is to fail.

Especially at such a crucial breakthrough point.

Wu Xiaode could faintly feel that this breakthrough in his exclusive profession was one of the most critical opportunities in his life.

Therefore.

What he needed to figure out was —

What kind of "Surge" did he desire?

Could it confront the Demon Destroyer?

At this thought, Wu Xiaode looked toward the Book of the Dead.

The pages gently turned, revealing a newly-formed page.

On this page was drawn a water bottle with three-colored orchids inserted in it.

The flowers swayed in the wind, and beside them in the Void, ice crystal letters appeared:

"’Destruction Laws’ from the Book of ’Returning to Dreams,’ ’Regaining Authority,’ and ’Death Experience’ materialized into three-colored orchids, you can summon their power anytime."

"Additional clarification:"

"Thirteen pages have fully materialized these three powers, therefore your ’Descent’ cannot be enhanced by page’s blessing."

"You need to obtain new pages to enhance your ’Descent.’"

Wu Xiaode nodded slightly.

At this moment, even though he had the Human Emperor’s battle experience and memories from the All Worlds Sword Saint, Li Chengfeng, he still had some vague ideas but nothing concrete.

So then —

His gaze fell on one of the orchids.

A line of ice crystal letters immediately appeared:

"Do you need to use ’Death Experience’? This ability will take you through the experience of all strong beings killed by the Demon Destroyer."

Yes.

The Death God had collected all the battle processes.

He needed to see, to feel, to think, and only then could he decide what path to take.

Wu Xiaode silently said in his heart, "I want to use ’Death Experience’."

The orchid swayed with the wind, slowly pushing its flower centre toward him.

A line of ice crystal letters popped up:

"All battles take the Demon Destroyer as a marker; please meditate on the image of a certain Demon Destroyer to proceed with the inquiry."

To use the Demon Destroyer for marking.

He had only ever encountered two Demon Destroyers, one of which was the flagbearer in the future era.

The other was the Demon Destroyer currently strategizing against him.

Damn it.

How I want to kill this Demon Destroyer strategizing against me!

Any way of fighting would do.

You are clearly a monster, don’t come strategizing against me!!!

Wu Xiaode took a deep breath, meditating in his heart on the original appearance of this Demon Destroyer.

Ding!

A line of ice crystal letters appeared beside the flower petals:

"Demon Destroyer locked in:"

"First Calamity·Feeding Demon Master."

"When you dream tonight, you will see all the battles related to it."

"Please be readyumping"

The last line of text hadn’t yet fully appeared when the Book of the Dead suddenly closed and plunged directly into Wu Xiaode’s body.

Wu Xiaode was momentarily startled, then quickly realized what was happening.

Now.

The Feeding Demon Master could see the Book of the Dead.

That’s why the Book of the Dead had to hide within itself.

In other words—

At this moment, the Feeding Demon Master was watching him!

A sudden irritation surged through Wu Xiaode’s heart.

He now somewhat understood how girls felt when they were being watched and pursued.

If this guy kept staring at him, when would he have time to grow?

But then again—

As a handsome boy, it seemed inevitable that many girls would stare at him once the world was peaceful and he returned to school normally.

He might as well get used to it in advance.

Clunk.

The trunk of the car opened, and Ulysses loaded it up with bags big and small.

"Done," he said, slapping his hands together as he walked to the driver’s seat, "Boss, are we heading straight back?"

"You take a rest, I have some things to buy," Wu Xiaode said.

He opened the car door and got out.

He couldn’t let that guy keep following him, focusing on him.

—It was time to show what he was capable of as a mortal.

...

Twenty minutes later.

Sare Town.

Bar.

"We’re back!"

Wu Xiaode and Ulysses, carrying bags big and small, placed them on the bar counter.

"We actually have a few guests today," Wu Xiaode said surprisingly.

In the dim light, groups of people sat in corners, whispering amongst themselves with intermittent music in the background.

"They are gangs from around here, they know they can’t cause trouble at my place, so they come here to talk business," Shen Feixue explained.

"Has anyone caused trouble?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"There has been, but our servants are corpse demons, and they ate up one troublemaker in no time," Shen Xiujun said calmly.

She placed some appetizers on the bar, followed by a bowl of soup and a bowl of rice, setting them in front of Wu Xiaode.

"Want a taste?"

Shen Xiujun asked with a smile.

"Thanks, Xiujun, these dishes are exactly what I like," Wu Xiaode said.

He picked up the bowl—

The other party wanted to improve his reputation.

So the food should be poison-free.

Eat.

Wu Xiaode began to wolf it down.

"Little Brother Wu, my sister’s cooking isn’t bad, right?" Shen Feixue said with a grin.

"Top notch!" Wu Xiaode gave a thumbs up.

"You’re not getting any younger, when are you getting a girlfriend?" Shen Feixue asked.

Wu Xiaode glanced at Shen Xiujun.

The girl’s face showed a faint blush, clearly a bit embarrassed.

"Sis!"

She chided Shen Feixue with a smack.

Tsk.

Sly witch.

If I hadn’t seen your hair flowing in that terrifying manner, I would have been totally fooled.

Wu Xiaode put down his bowl and casually pulled out his phone, slapping it down on the table.

The two women looked toward the phone, seeing a game’s cover displayed—

"Stubborn Commoner!"

"Little Wu is playing games? I’ve heard this game is quite famous," Shen Feixue casually said.

"Yes, the girl I truly admire would definitely be a world-conquering hero in the game, her level far surpassing Stubborn Bronze, Order Silver, Glory Gold, Prestigious Platinum, Eternal Diamond, Supreme Star—"

"That’s the girl who would catch my eye!"

Wu Xiaode exclaimed loudly.

Shen Feixue just smiled, thinking it was good that the young Taoist Wu also had interests typical of his age.

Shen Xiujun’s eyes were glued to the "Stubborn Commoner" game screen, feeling as if a door had opened before her.

Finally—

Finally, she’d found the right path!

From this path, becoming the Strongest King all the way, she could gain his recognition!

Why not seize the chance to build up reputation?

Right.

First, she needed to get a phone!

After finishing his statement, Wu Xiaode put his phone away and buried himself in eating and drinking heartily.

Lil’ brat.

Keep on building your rep.

Even if you’re a Feeding Demon Master with powers beyond humans—

"Ulysses."

He whispered silently.

"Here," Ulysses responded.

"I’m speaking to you in thought, don’t show any reaction."

"Okay, boss."

Ulysses put down his drink and turned to look at the gang members in the corner, appearing somewhat interested.

"Exchange some gold, take the money, and buy out the ’Stubborn Commoner’ game company. Modify the backend data, control her leveling speed," Wu Xiaode directed in thought.

Ulysses was stunned for a moment before realizing what all of Wu Xiaode’s actions were about.

"Boss is really sneaky, love it."

"Hmm?"

"I mean, I’m on it right away."
