Purple Sky was a very open plane, but it was also a society with a strict hierarchy.
So, when Gu Nan bought a house, people of this level came and went. Normally, there were very few conflicts. He did not expect to encounter something like this when he came back.
"Master …" The maid ran over in a panic. She quickly reported, "Outside, there are a few big shots searching …"
Gu Nan frowned slightly and waved his hand to get the maid to leave before he walked outside.
Just as the maid had said, there was a small team carefully searching outside. Although they were worried about the identity of the people who lived there, they did not do too much. Still, they made a lot of noise.
Plus, the loud noise did not seem like it was caused by a search.
"What is going on?" Gu Nan asked Luo Wen.
Gu Nan's neighbor was not like him. Luo Wen lived in Purple Sky all year round. He spent most of his time at home doing shameless things. Of course, he was shocked.
Looking at Luo Wen's face, it seemed he had been interrupted while doing something.
"It's the Seven Star Alliance," Luo Wen said quietly. "They said they were looking for a woman who stole something. I don't know if it's true or not …"
Gu Nan had been in Purple Sky for a long time, so he knew what the Seven Star Alliance was.
The astral gate was an open organization. They recruited people from all planes, but that did not mean they were in a state of disunity.
In fact, in the astral gate, there were core and periphery organizations. Only loyal members could join the core organization. People like Gu Nan could only stay on the periphery.
There were many organizations inside the astral gate. There were no less than a hundred organizations, big or small. The Seven Star Alliance was one of them, and it was very famous.
Gu Nan couldn't help but smile when he heard Luo Wen.
The Seven Star Alliance was not so bored that they would go to the Break World area to search. Luo Wen's good deed had been interrupted, and he was angry.
At this time, the members of the Seven Star Alliance also saw Gu Nan appear. Soon, someone came up to him and asked if he had seen a woman.
The attitude of the people from the Seven Stars Alliance was very respectful and professional. Not only did they take out the detailed information of the people they were investigating, but they even had images and photos.
Gu Nan glanced at the ordinary-looking woman named Fang Jing and shook his head.
He really didn't know this person, but he was also a bit puzzled — with such detailed information, she still managed to escape. Was it because the Seven Star Alliance was too useless, or was there something strange about this woman?
Many Break World people showed up. The Seven Star Alliance people went to ask them, but they were disappointed. None of them were able to provide any valuable information.
It wasn't until they retracted their team and left that Luo Wen said with emotion, "This woman is not simple! If it wasn't for someone's help, I would definitely have kept her! "
This was a gathering place for Break World people. It was not easy to hide one's whereabouts there.
Luo Wen's eyes lit up as he spoke.
Luo Wen was a very special Break World person. He didn't grow up from a small plane of existence. He was born in Purple Sky, so his personality didn't have much of a murderous nature.
He was crazy about all kinds of women, but he wasn't a heartless person. He treated every woman with sincerity.
The collection Luo Wen was talking about was keeping a woman next to him. Then, he would use his long life to accompany her until she died. In the end, he would make her into a permanent specimen.
Gu Nan wasn't interested in Luo Wen's special hobby. He calmly turned around and went back to his room.
Even Luo Wen didn't notice that the moment Gu Nan closed the door, the shadow power had completely surrounded the room.
In front of him stood a woman.
Gu Nan didn't know this face, but he had seen the image. Plus, he was very familiar with the other's presence.
Looks could be changed, and names could be faked. Only the special presence of the soul could not be fooled.
Gu Nan had been in contact with the other's soul before, so the disguise could not be hidden from him.
"Oh, it's you!" Gu Nan used shadow power to lock down the area and said, "Last time, you found Star World. This time, you found me … What is the relationship between you and that Uncle Purple Lightning?"
Gu Nan's two questions didn't seem to be connected. The only connection was that they were both asking the same question.
The person who appeared in front of Gu Nan was the person who had gone to the private Instance Dungeon with him. She had used her own power to defeat Star Master Purple Will.
When Gu Nan returned to Star World, Purple Will had sent a part of her soul to possess Duanmu Yin. She had tried to lead Gu Nan to the Duanmu family's ancestral grave.
Gu Nan had reason to believe that her goal was Purple Lightning.
Purple Will was not surprised by Gu Nan's question. She had shown herself because she had been prepared for this.
Purple Will's face returned to normal. Then, she chose to answer the second question. "Purple Lightning is my son."
"Hey!" Gu Nan suddenly clapped his hands. "That's an unexpected answer. Looking at the two of you, I thought you were his daughter."
No matter what, the middle-aged Purple Lightning was much more mature than Purple Will. His personality was the same as well.
Moreover, the plot of a daughter saving her father seemed more reliable!
Purple Will's expression remained cold in the face of Gu Nan's exaggerated statement. "They know you're in the Purple Sieve Sky, so they sent me to find you.
"Their location might have already been exposed. Zuozuo's people will come looking for you soon. Help —"
"Why should I help?" Gu Nan interrupted her before she could finish speaking.
Purple Will was taken aback. She hadn't expected Gu Nan's answer to be so straightforward. She said forcefully, "That person in Star World asked you to protect this generation's Blood Ancestor. You agreed."
"Can't I go back on my word?" Gu Nan asked, a strange expression on his face.
Players never cared about what they promised. If you wanted them to accept a mission, you had to give them a suitable reward.
Of course, in the end, Shadow Song's ability to enter the Starry Sky Path was useless to Gu Nan. He could rely on Origin Crystals to advance to the fifth stage, and his efficiency wouldn't be low.
But once he reached the fifth stage, he would be able to enter the Inner World. What use would Shadow Song have then?
If they were useless, they would discard them. This was how players treated equipment, pets, and NPCs.
This was the first time Purple Will had seen someone go back on their word in such a serious manner. She took a deep breath and stared at Gu Nan. "When Zuozuo takes the Star World, do you think you'll get anything out of it?"
"There's no harm in that." Gu Nan didn't seem to care. In any case, the Origin of the Immortal Demon World had been destroyed, and the coordinates were scattered to who knew where. Zuozuo wouldn't be able to cause him any trouble.
Purple Will was completely helpless against this stubborn fellow. Anger gradually appeared on her face. "Then what do you want in exchange for your help?!"
"It's very simple!" Gu Nan said matter-of-factly. "I just need money. I need … a hundred thousand Origin Crystals."
Purple Will's eyes widened. As if afraid that Gu Nan would go back on his word, she quickly spoke.
