Chapter 1600: Old Debts and a New World

~7 min read 1,377 words

The next morning, inside Xia's restaurant.

Su Xiao was chewing food, while Xia, sitting across from him at the dining table, was yawning repeatedly.

"Sigh~ life, oh life."

Xia sighed, her face full of listlessness.

"What's the matter?"

Su Xiao put down his chopsticks. Under normal circumstances, Xia wouldn't be sighing.

"I've made an enemy of someone."

"Hmm?"

Su Xiao looked at Xia with confusion. He couldn't imagine who a worker like Xia would make an enemy of.

"Remember that red-eyed boy you sent to help me?"

Xia's expression turned serious.

"Black Blood?"

"Yes, that's him. I think I've made an enemy of him."

"..."

Su Xiao looked at Xia in surprise, not quite understanding why she would make an enemy of Black Blood.

"Last time, after he helped me deal with the enemy, he and a few others escorted me out of that grassland. I don't know what I did wrong, but he kept staring at me. It scared me so much at the time, I almost peed my pants. Before leaving, he even said, 'If I slaughtered you, what would happen?' Tell me, isn't that making an enemy of me? Why would he want to kill me? I'm very innocent; I didn't even dare to look at him much."

Xia felt more aggrieved the more she spoke. She couldn't understand why Black Blood's attitude had changed so drastically.

"Is that all this bullshit is about?"

"It's not bullshit! I feel like my life is in danger. That boy will swallow people alive, chewing, crunch, crunch..."

As Xia said this, she remembered Su Xiao was still eating breakfast and realized it wasn't appropriate to talk about such disgusting things.

"No problem. Black Blood is a bit mentally unstable. In professional terms, it's antisocial personality + mental disorder."

"In other words, he's a psycho?"

"You could understand it that way."

Xia was speechless for a moment. Su Xiao had just finished his breakfast, paid the bill, and stood up to leave. His remaining time in Reincarnation Paradise was running out, and he only had 114,280 Paradise Coins left. As for the 1 million Paradise Coins, he had used them all to improve his Goddess's Favor ability.

【Goddess's Favor: Lv. 50 (Passive Skill)】

Skill Effect: Luck attribute permanently +6 (increased by 2 points).

Prompt: For every 10 levels this ability increases, Luck attribute increases by an additional 1 point.

The higher the level of Goddess's Favor, the more expensive it was to upgrade. By Lv. 50, it reached 70,000 Paradise Coins per level.

Su Xiao now had two choices: one was to go to the Arena and try to break into the top ten, but due to some special reasons, his ranking in the Arena couldn't be too high, at least not in the near future.

Unable to fight in the Arena, Su Xiao could only go to hone his melee combat ability with Sha. Because Sha's strength was too high, and since he was trying to hone his melee combat ability, Su Xiao couldn't use his blade. The result could be imagined.

Although he was beaten quite miserably by Sha in the Trial Grounds, Su Xiao's close-quarters combat ability skyrocketed. What he lacked wasn't experience, but techniques and insights, both of which didn't take much time to master.

"Your center of gravity is too far back. Do it like this."

Inside the dojo of the Trial Grounds, a burst of air explosions came, followed by a roar.

"Only by side-kicking like this can..."

Before Sha could finish her sentence, she clutched her lower abdomen with one hand, her face turning pale instantly.

"Those bastards who use small wooden sticks to throw fireballs!"

Cold sweat dripped down Sha's chin. The black scar on her side flickered, accelerating the erosion of her life force.

"This thing... I have a way to help you clear it."

Su Xiao spat out a mouthful of blood-stained saliva, a gentle smile appearing on his face. This was the first time Sha had seen Su Xiao smile like this.

"Then... why don't you help?"

Sha was already half-squatting on the ground.

"If I help you completely clear this thing, you'll only die faster."

Su Xiao's finger tapped on the black scar. Qing Gang Ying energy surged, and the energy within the scar was gradually devoured and extinguished. After devouring most of it, Su Xiao withdrew the Qing Gang Ying energy.

"Phew~ How did you do that? Right, you're a Law-Breaker."

Sha's expression was clearly much more relaxed. Su Xiao was right before; if a Law-Breaker helped her clear the energy in the scar, she would die faster and more miserably.

"Continue."

Sha lunged at Su Xiao. In less than a blink of an eye, the two were brawling together. Ten seconds later, Su Xiao was kicked flying.

Time passed quickly while honing his melee combat ability. When Su Xiao received the prompt from Reincarnation Paradise, he was already too tired to stand, only able to sit on the ground.

"That was truly refreshing."

Sha, who had been shirtless, put on her top. Su Xiao suspected that she didn't care about gender differences at all, or rather, that was just how the tomboy Sha was.

"Don't forget that matter. If there's a chance to enter the Void, notify me in advance."

Sha teleported away. Su Xiao's remaining time wasn't much either; he was about to return to the real world.

On the second floor of the accessory shop, after three sounds of "bang, bang, bang," Su Xiao, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, and Amu were teleported to the second floor of the accessory shop.

Su Xiao and Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang looked at each other, then simultaneously looked at Amu.

Amu's appearance had changed drastically. The horns on its head had been disguised. In the eyes of outsiders, Amu was just an extremely strong, burly man—the kind you wouldn't want to provoke just by looking at him.

Amu looked around curiously. It had never been to the real world, and everything here was very novel to it.

Obviously, after Amu was promoted to an affiliated follower, it could enter the real world. Fortunately, its appearance wouldn't arouse suspicion from outsiders, and Reincarnation Paradise wouldn't allow such a situation to occur.

"Xiang Bubu, tell Amu what to pay attention to in the real world."

Su Xiao changed his clothes. Having nothing to do, he prepared to go fishing by the nearby river.

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang sat upright in front of Amu and began to explain what to pay attention to in the real world, such as not eating things indiscriminately, etc.

After Su Xiao was promoted to a Tier 4 contractor, he actually didn't care much about hiding his identity in the real world. He had always followed the principle of not offending others unless they offended him. In the real world without missions, Su Xiao basically had no enemies. Or rather, for those who could truly threaten him, even if he deliberately hid his identity, it wouldn't have much effect. The internal evaluation of him by the Scavenger organization was interesting: the danger level was extremely dangerous, while the threat level was medium-low.

Life in the real world was exceptionally peaceful, and Su Xiao's spirit was gradually relaxing because in the next derived world, he would kill many enemies.

When Su Xiao had fully adjusted his state, the prompt from Reincarnation Paradise arrived. He was about to enter a new derived world.

【A new derived world is about to open. The Hunter will return to Reincarnation Paradise. Please ensure there are no witnesses.】

【Teleporting... Teleportation complete.】

Inside the exclusive room, Su Xiao sat up. He would enter the new derived world in an hour. Checking the storage space, the recovery items were still quite sufficient. He had previously spent 100,000 Paradise Coins to manufacture 10 bottles of Ancient Secret Medicine.

Su Xiao dialed a remote call to someone and began waiting for the other party's news.

Ten minutes, half an hour.

"Quick, it's now."

A strange male voice came from the communicator. At the same time, Su Xiao crushed a fountain pen in his hand. This was the World Key; he was about to settle old scores with the Blood Gate. ===== CHAPTER 1601 =====
