When Shaya arrived, it was already the next day. Gu Xi, who had rested for a day, had already figured out the situation at the Soul Gathering Ground.

What Zuo Ya has said so far is just some general information.

However, he did not tell Gu Xi that in this Soul Gathering Ground, besides their Corpse Bone Fish Dragon Guild, there were eleven other Guild Residence.

Most of these guilds are among the top-ranked guilds in Bailian City.

The only two guilds ranked relatively low are the Chaoyang Radiance Guild and the first guild to discover the Game World before them.

This is actually quite easy to understand, as most players in Bailian City follow the path of necromancer and Death Knight.

As the largest gathering place for the undead outside the Underworld, the Soul Gathering Ground can be considered the largest main city for the undead. Players who come to explore this world will find this place as long as they enter the Underworld.

This place, as the largest gathering point, quest posting location, and market in the Underworld, has become the preferred main city for players.

If Gu Xi explores the area with other players from the Chaoyang Guild, he will be brought to the Soul Gathering Ground in the shortest possible time.

And various missions will unfold around the Soul Gathering Ground, and only then will they be able to fight their way back to the Living World.

However, when that time actually comes, what Gu Xi will do and when he will leave will be beyond his control.

At that time, Gu Xi will inevitably have to act together with the pioneering team.

Even though Gu Xi knew that the Chaoyang Radiance Guild had its headquarters in the city, he did not go there to join them, despite understanding this.

Is it not better to book an entire inn yourself, or is it that Gu Xi can't find any quests to do?

Isn't it better to come and go as you please?

So even though he knew about it, Gu Xi pretended not to know.

Gu Xi was unaware that many players shared similar thoughts with him.

Especially after the news of Genesis spread, most of the main force of the pioneering teams were transferred away, leaving the remaining pioneering teams with little management.

Some players do some business or something in the Soul Gathering Ground after returning from clearing the dungeon, and most clearing teams don't really care.

Gu Xi's little scheme went completely unnoticed.

Those people from the Chaoyang Radiance Guild were actually quite happy to Gu Xi away from them.

When Gu Xi met Shaya, he had already changed his clothes.

At this moment, Gu Xi was still wearing the same set of equipment, but he was no longer wearing the necromancer's robe, but a light yellow Daoist robe.

Gu Xi was speechless at this situation.

"Wait, is it really okay for me to put on this yellow robe?"

"What's wrong with that? It's not a dragon robe, nor a purple robe. My lord, you are a Celestial Master who commands a powerful subordinate. What's wrong with wearing a yellow robe?"

The undead shopkeeper who delivered the fashionable Daoist robe to Gu Xi was speechless.

"You're just too unrefined. If you have time, you should go to the Soul Gathering Ground and see which of the Celestial Master come down from there are dressed like you, all drab and plain."

"A yellow robe is the bare minimum. Look at the City God, Mountain Deity, and earth gods; they're all dressed in magnificent robes."

Even so, Gu Xi still felt that something was amiss.

Just then, Shaya walked in and saw Gu Xi changing his clothes, so Shaya smiled.

"My lord, do you look like the man who has been bestowed the imperial robe upon you?"

"I'd like to, but this is clearly not the case."

Gu Xi rolled her eyes at Shaya, "So, did you find out anything?"

"I found out," Shaya nodded affirmatively.

She spent the whole night running around, not only getting to know the city's roads well, but also finding out a lot of information.

The most important point here is that there have been many battles outside the Soul Gathering Ground recently.

It seems that it is because the Great Feng Dynasty is nearing its end, and many Ghost King see an opportunity to compete for the dragon and want to take the chance to be reincarnated.

In order to ensure a smooth reincarnation or to strike down opponents ahead of time, many battlefields have been opened outside the Soul Gathering Ground.

However, this news has no direct connection with Gu Xi.

After all, this is a long-term plan that has lasted for two or three decades.

However, this is major news for the guild.

If a guild can support a demon god to rise to power in this great war, it will be a huge change for that guild.

It's fair to say that if the Genesis event hadn't diverted the attention and main forces of the major guilds, they might have focused their attention on the world at hand for some time to come.

Hearing this, Gu Xi gently tapped the table and then pressed his forehead.

"I don't quite understand this matter. If Grand Princess Anna were here, she would probably be able to see something."

Shaya nodded quite affirmatively.

Of the three Contract Undead under Gu Xi's command, the one with the most direct connection to power is Grand Princess Anna.

Luna and Shaya are somewhat weaker, at least in terms of their lack of political aspirations.

It's a pity that Grand Princess Anna is currently tied up in the war in Aryadovi City. Otherwise, inviting Grand Princess Anna here now would be a solution.

Just then, Shaya suddenly said something.

"My lord, isn't that Du Yuan a scholar?"

Although he seems a bit slow-witted, he should know something about this. Should we call him over and ask him?

Gu Xi heard this and said, "That's right."

Didn't that guy named Du Yuan always claim to be a scholar, the kind of awesome scholar who could go to the capital to take the imperial examination? He even knew about King Chariot and could write poems for King Chariot.

He should have some understanding of the situation of the Great Feng Dynasty.

Calling him over is a good idea.

Gu Xi thought for a moment, then took out the whistle that the Stillborn Bone earlier had given him and handed it to a Skeleton Head.

"Go find the Stillborn Bone to lead the way back to Su Family Village and bring Du Yuan down."

The Skeleton Head pointed out by Gu Xi was previously responsible for protecting Du Yuan while he was transporting goods. He also knew about Du Yuan 'Du Yuan situation and could at least exchange a few words with him.

After receiving Gu Xi's mission, the Skeleton Head quickly left with his men.

As they left, Gu Xi noticed that the bones of all the Skeleton Soldier here had become noticeably brighter.

It seems that Li Family Inn has done a pretty good job of maintaining the Skeleton.

After handing over this matter, Gu Xi began to inquire about other things.

Shaya and Gu Xi have a great understanding of each other, and Gu Xi has.

When she went to inquire about information and intelligence, she always did so in this direction.

After recounting some important information that was not particularly relevant to Gu Xi, Shaya said smugly to Gu Xi.

"Sir, you would never guess what I found at the market. This trip was definitely worthwhile. Take a look at this."
