Leaving the Spirit Contract Pagoda

After completing his deal with Electrolux, Xu Xingyu left the Soul Spirit Department. He strolled towards the Tower Master's office, his heart filled with anticipation and anxiety. He had already made his request to Electrolux, but now he had to wait for a reply, hoping that Electrolux could provide the help he needed.

When Xu Xingyu entered Gu Yuena's office, he saw her sitting at her desk processing a large number of documents, her expression focused and serious. Gu Yuena was wearing a light purple dress, her long hair gently cascading over her shoulders; her beauty was undeniably striking. His arrival interrupted her work, causing her to stop what she was doing, but she accepted it with a smile.

Xu Xingyu couldn't help but chuckle softly and said, "Nana, I see you're quite engrossed in your work. Did I disturb you?" His voice carried a hint of humor.

Gu Yuena put down the documents in her hand, looked up at him, and smiled even more brightly, "Of course I'm sorry to bother you, but your arrival is always welcome."

Xu Xingyu smiled slightly, walked to her side, and said softly, "Nana, last night's feast was truly unforgettable."

Gu Yuena blinked and replied playfully, "Oh? Did the little rabbit and the little star not satisfy you?"

These words made Xu Xingyu a little embarrassed, but he was not to be outdone. After coughing, he retorted, "Nana, you are my true love. Your charm is irresistible."

Gu Yuena laughed even harder, gently stroking Xu Xingyu's hair with her fingers, and said softly, "Okay, I admit you're a smooth-talking jerk. But what can I do? I've fallen in love with you, you little rascal. Alright, let's not talk about that anymore. So, you should go find Electrolux, right? Does he have any ideas?"

Upon hearing the name Electrolux, Xu Xingyu recounted his previous conversation with Electrolux and the three supreme soul treasures to Gu Yuena. After listening to Xu Xingyu's account Gu Yuena fell into deep thought.

She said with difficulty, "I didn't expect that such a treasure would be needed to assist me. I can send people to search for it, but I think it's a bit risky to find these things in the Douluo Continent."

Xu Xingyu also felt helpless, and he replied, "Is that what you think too?"

Gu Yuena continued, "There's nothing we can do. I've never even heard of these soul treasures you mentioned, and their conditions for creation are so demanding! To be honest, it's already quite good that Electrolux could prepare one for us. The other two are difficult to find on the Douluo Continent."

"First is the Purifying Flame Hong Lian, a variant of the Earth Core Hong Lian. These days, even the Earth Core Hong Lian is extremely rare in the Douluo Continent. I once heard from Buer that Tang San, in order to become the Plane Master and Life Core for his parents, not only secretly destroyed the inheritances of other deities in the Douluo Continent, but also stole some rare treasures that even the gods cherished for their son."

"This includes the Earth Core Hong Lian, which was born in the Earth's core. There are no Earth Core Hong Lian on the Douluo Continent that can awaken sentience, so taking it away would be effortless."

"As for the Soul Gestation Crystal you mentioned, I've never even heard of it, nor do I know if the Douluo Continent meets the conditions for its creation. So, all I can do is send people to search for it as best they can, and if we can't find it, there's nothing we can do."

Xu Xingyu sighed and said, "In the worst-case scenario, we'll have to find a way to reinforce the seal and give Wang Dong'er some medicinal herbs to nourish her soul."

He had previously thought that by resolving Wang Dong'er's so-called "illness" from her childhood (described in the previous work), he no longer needed to worry about Wang Dong'er's soul. However, he never expected that Tang San would resort to such despicable means to implant a fake personality into Wang Dong'er, which infuriated him greatly.

He has no way to solve this problem yet, because it involves a struggle over personality rights, which is an extremely complex and thorny issue.

Seeing Xu Xingyu's confusion, Gu Yuena said with heartache, "Xingyu, I know you're worried about Dong'er, but this is all we can do now. I think instead of remaining silent, you should complete your God Examination first. If you can inherit the Dragon God Position before the seal on Dong'er is broken, then these problems will no longer be problems."

Xu Xingyu remained silent for a while, and finally had no choice but to accept Gu Yuena's suggestion. He understood that although Gu Yuena's words carried a hint of helplessness, they also contained her care and support. After all, Gu Yuena was already his official wife, and he not only had the responsibility to take care of her, but also to consider the safety of the entire Douluo Continent.

In such circumstances, the fact that the other person could still find the time to help her treat her other lover can only mean that Gu Yuena truly loves Xu Xingyu. She doesn't care at all whether the person he's trying to save is her rival in love. Compared to her own feelings, she only cares about Xu Xingyu's feelings.

For Gu Yuena, happiness only comes when Xu Xingyu is happy, because no one loves Xu Xingyu more than she does.

He looked at Gu Yuena with deep affection and said softly, "Thank you for your understanding and support, Nana. You're right, I shouldn't just give up like this. Ultimately, the reason I'm troubled by this is because of my own lack of strength. Only when I'm strong enough can I avoid falling into such a predicament."

Gu Yuena nodded at Xu Xingyu, who had regained some of her composure, and smiled, saying, "It's good that you've come to your senses, my dear. Don't worry too much about things on the mainland. While you're away, I'll stay at the Spirit Contract Pagoda with the others to help you resolve the impending disasters facing the mainland in the coming years."

Xu Xingyu stood up, walked to Gu Yuena's side, gently kissed her forehead, and said, "I understand. Then I'll leave Douluo Continent and the Abyss Plane to you."

After speaking, Xu Xingyu stood up, preparing to head to Dragon Valley again to complete the assessment he had not yet finished.

He stopped at the entrance to the tower master's office and looked back at Gu Yuena. Her eyes were full of understanding and support, Xu Xingyu felt incredibly lucky to have such a partner.

At the office door, he turned back to look at Gu Yuena again; her eyes were filled with care and expectation. Xu Xingyu said softly, "I'll be back as soon as possible; everything will be better."

Gu Yuena smiled and nodded, silently wishing him a safe return and hoping he would strive for a better future.

Stepping out of the Spirit Contract Pagoda, Xu Xingyu was filled with determination. He knew the road ahead was full of challenges, but he was prepared to continue, to complete his God Examination, to gain more power, and to make greater contributions to protecting the Douluo Continent.

He embarked on his journey to Dragon Valley, his heart filled with confidence and determination. No matter what difficulties he might encounter, he would move forward steadfastly, for he knew that only through continuous effort could he protect everything he cherished.
