Chapter 268 Liang Pozhou
Yu Xunge did not initially refuse to clean up after her and Tu Lan, but they gradually became more carefree. Life on Dragon Island was too enjoyable; every day they either picked up treasures or watched Yinglong and Shenlong fight.
The treasures they found were so good that she and Tulan excitedly discussed selling them and splitting the money in half; the battles between the dragons were so exciting that they would argue about which dragon was stronger, and then forget about it as they talked.
In the end, it was Bei Sui who took action. Every time Tu Lan and Yu Xunge returned from their playful run, he would throw water balloons at them from a distance. As a result, Tu Lan started to enjoy the game and began to dodge Bei Sui's water balloons just like she did when she was practicing sparring with Yu Xunge.
The water balloon that Bei Sui threw kept getting bigger and bigger! It gradually developed into a water cannon...
The two, one human and one dragon, planned to return on the 27th. They had already searched almost all the places on the island where there were treasures. Tu Lan wanted to find the Dragon Ancestor's Reverse Scale as soon as possible to exchange for the Seven Bamboo. As soon as she said this, the Holy Grail and Bei Sui sent Tu Lan and Yu Xunge off the island that very day, even faster than when they brought them to the island a few days earlier...
Before parting, Tu Lan gathered a lot of fruits and vegetables from Dragon Island for Yu Xunge, some for detoxification, some for healing, and some for removing various abnormal statuses. Not only that, she also grabbed Bei Sui's wings and refused to leave, insisting that Bei Sui give her another dragon scale.
Yu Xunge had previously encountered the mist blade and smelled the dragon's scent. She had told Tu Lan about it, and later even commissioned a perfume for it. There was nothing Tu Lan could do about it. Now that she had come to the Dragon's Nest, she naturally had to get some of Bei Sui's dragon scales.
Bei Sui said helplessly, "Didn't you collect a lot of scales these past few days?"
Tulan said matter-of-factly, "There are only three broken pieces. The rest have been sold by the snowdrifts. If you give me another piece, we can take turns carrying them."
From initial embarrassment and helplessness to now being used to it, Yu Xunge calmly looked up at the sky in the face of this scene, almost whistling as if he had just accidentally appeared there.
She even cheered for Tulan in her heart: "Go, go, go!"
Yu Xunge has completely transformed into a pest who follows Tu Lan home to freeload.
In the end, Bei Sui took out a piece of dragon scale that he had shed a long time ago. The Holy Grail was also taken advantage of by Tu Lan, but it wasn't a dragon scale, but an ice sculpture in the shape of Tu Lan. The ice sculpture was very small, almost the size of Yu Xun Ge's eye. Its only function was to allow Tu Lan to change its own form and information.
Although not as powerful as Yu Xunge's disguise skills, which can evade divination, it is still undetectable by S-rank and lower-rank skills and items, and the disguised state can also use divinely bestowed talent skills.
After handing the ice sculpture to Tulan, the Holy Grail suddenly said, "Don't add too much burden to the soul."
Yu Xunge was taken aback. What did that mean? Was he referring to equipment binding stones?
Completely bewildered, she bid farewell to the Holy Grail and Bei Sui. Having flown a little over a hundred meters, Tu Lan finally couldn't contain herself any longer. She excitedly told Yu Xun Ge, "Great! Now I can finally go out and do bad things with you!!!"
Yu Xunge: "............ I think you want me to die with you."
Sure enough, as soon as Tu Lan finished speaking, a snowball and a ball of light flew from behind her. The two skill balls blasted towards Tu Lan and her buttocks. Yu Xunge immediately activated [No Ball] and used [Lightning Cage], instantly weaving two electric nets to block the two skills from advancing.
This is a new way of using the skill that she has learned from watching those dragons fight in the past few days. The casting time of the Lightning Cage is unpredictable. With her current intelligence and various casting bonuses, it takes her 3 seconds to completely create a 3m x 3m x 3m cube cage.
This process requires weaving six electric grids and controlling them to form a cage. However, if only a 3x3 electric grid is created, not only will the casting time be only 0.5 seconds, but this electric grid can also do many things under her control, including defense, offense, and control. If such a large electric grid is not needed, the casting time can be further reduced.
For example, at this moment, although the two electric grids were torn apart by Bei Sui and the Holy Grail's skills in one go, they bought half a second. Tu Lan, who had been practicing with Yu Xun Ge for a long time, also dodged the two skills in that half second.
Yu Xunge quickly climbed onto Tu Lan's head and covered her mouth: "Run! Run!"
Tu Lan wanted to turn around and retort, but Yu Xunge anticipated her move and covered her mouth. She was so angry that she snorted, turned around and glared at Holy Grail Bei Sui, and flew away with Yu Xunge on her back.
Upon returning to Earth, Yu Xunge immediately began investigating the Liang family without a moment's rest.
Instead of rushing to buy information from outside, she started by checking local news and gaming forums to see what gossip was circulating.
Although most of these rumors are fabricated by some people to attract attention, sometimes a lot of inside information is hidden in those gossip fields, and because it is too outrageous, no one believes it.
Many wealthy individuals may not be well-known nationwide unless they appear on the rich list, but some wealthy individuals with extensive business operations and who provide numerous jobs for local residents are constantly in the news among locals.
The Liang and Su families are examples of this.
Many business people in S City know that the Liang family made their fortune selling seafood, but the ancestor who made the family fortune had no connection to seafood; his name was Liang Pozhou.
His early life was filled with hardship and poverty, but he suddenly became wealthy after turning fifty and soared to great heights without any further setbacks.
Whether it was to commemorate Liang Pozhou or a habit and tradition left by the Liang family, even after the Liang family descendants developed industries with higher returns, they still maintained their own fishing boats. Moreover, the Liang family members all love sea fishing and have family gatherings every month to go out to sea for a few days.
Even after the game's invasion, this habit remained unchanged. However, due to the tense situation and the uncertainty of whether there were any dungeon screens underwater, the Liang family would not stray too far from the coastline.
Yu Xunge previously thought Liang Pozhou was Liang Yuchuan's great-grandfather, but after careful investigation, she realized that she must have misheard in her previous life. Liang Pozhou was actually Liang Sha's great-grandfather, which is equivalent to Liang Yuchuan's great-great-grandfather.
Liang Yuchuan's great-grandfather's name is Liang You, the character she previously played.
I just don't know how Liang Pozhou could have chosen such an awful name for his child. Although the name "Pozhou" has a bad connotation, it still sounds quite nice at first glance.
To spark discussion among players, Yu Xunge put the statue back on the market and anonymously started a thread on the game forum titled "How exactly did Liang Pozhou make his fortune?"
Tu Lan also created a new alias and inquired about Liang Pozhou in the game. But how could the younger generation know about such gossip? The same goes for game forums. The younger generation doesn't even care much about the stories of the older generation, so why would they inquire about Liang Pozhou, an old man who has been dead for hundreds of years?
Yu Xunge asked Tu Lan, "What is the use of the Dragon Ancestor's remains?"
Tu Lan: "It contains the residual power of the Dragon Ancestor. Long-term contact with it can make the power within our bodies purer and our life level higher. It is of little use to other races; at most, they can only barely borrow a little of its power."
A higher level of life? Yu Xunge pondered this question repeatedly. The dragon race had already become so powerful, could their level of life still evolve? Was the result of this evolution that, at the same level, their individual attributes would be almost the sum of the four attributes of a Blue Star player, a terrifying value?
What about humans? Can humans also "evolve"?
Is Black Jade's desire to transform into a dragon the path of evolution he seeks?
