Chapter 176: 200 Million Experience Point Reward
Golden Diamond Shield, invincible for two minutes, immune to all damage.
Chen Sisi's attack landed on Li Xiang, dealing only -0 damage.
Instead, counterattack effects were triggered from time to time.
Dealing reflected damage to Chen Sisi!!!

...
Chen Sisi's attack stopped abruptly. Looking at Li Xiang who had blocked all her attacks, and then glancing at the Blood God Apostle protected behind Li Xiang with only a thin sliver of health left, she said regretfully, "Just a little more, and he would have died. I could have taken both his body and Soul..."
Li Xiang looked at Chen Sisi, "I almost fell for your trick."
Chen Sisi looked at Li Xiang and chuckled, "You didn't think I would go and destroy your pitifully small little Guild, did you?"
Damn...
Hearing Chen Sisi's words, Li Xiang cursed inwardly.
Is this really an NPC?!
Li Xiang even suspected that this wasn't an NPC, but a real person playing.
This intelligence is a bit too high...
For players, a newly established Guild is already something remarkable.
But for game NPCs, a Guild isn't even comparable to a Village that can be seen everywhere; it's pitifully small.
In the eyes of an NPC like Chen Sisi, even the Guild Residence of a Guild like Gods Guild, which has already been upgraded to a town-level Guild, is still pitifully small, not even worth a glance.
Seeing Li Xiang didn't speak, Chen Sisi also felt bored. Her gaze turned to the Blood God Apostle behind Li Xiang, "Consider yourself lucky this time. The next time I see you, you won't be so fortunate!!!"
After speaking, she directly opened a spatial vortex and left.
Seeing she had left, Li Xiang didn't dare to be careless. At this moment, the Blood God Apostle only had a sliver of health left. Li Xiang was very afraid that Chen Sisi would suddenly reappear and finish him off.
If he died, it wouldn't just mean the task couldn't be completed; most importantly, the promise he made to Li Xiang, that Li Xiang would get the blood god stone in Scarlet City at level 50, couldn't be fulfilled.
The blood god stone was the thing Li Xiang needed most!!!
Taking out a few large health potions from his bag and giving them to the Blood God Apostle, Li Xiang breathed a sigh of relief after seeing his health recover a bit. But the task completion prompt hadn't appeared yet, so Li Xiang was still uneasy.
Next, Li Xiang insisted on escorting the Blood God Apostle, personally taking him to Scarlet City.
Only after watching the Blood God Apostle enter Scarlet City did the task completion prompt appear.
【Ding! Task "Helping the Blood God Apostle Out of Trouble" completed.】
【Ding! Received Task Reward 'Experience Points' x 200,000,000】
"200 million!!! That's amazing!!!"
"But..."
Seeing the task completion prompt finally appear, Li Xiang was happy, but at the same time, his heart tightened, and he looked around.
A few seconds later, a voice appeared from behind Li Xiang.
"Are You looking for me?"
Li Xiang turned his head and found himself face to face with Chen Sisi.
At this moment, the distance between them was less than a fist's length.
This distance was an absolute distance.
Li Xiang could clearly feel the warmth of Chen Sisi's face.
Li Xiang was dumbfounded.
It must be said, coming into such close contact with the stunning figure of Chen Sisi, Li Xiang's heart couldn't help but skip a beat.
Perhaps because she was a virtual NPC, Chen Sisi's face was perfect from every angle!!!
No wonder two-dimensional characters are popular...
Li Xiang muttered inwardly.
【Ding! "Demon Clan Priest - Chen Sisi" Favorability +5, Current Value: -20】
The favorability prompt appeared.
Chen Sisi pulled away.
Neither of them spoke.
Li Xiang was wondering if the favorability system was acting up like crazy.
Sometimes increasing, sometimes decreasing.
What was strange was that when he stopped Chen Sisi from killing the Blood God Apostle, his favorability didn't decrease, but now it had inexplicably increased.
Chen Sisi was the first to break the silence, "You are really cautious.
You actually escorted him all the way into the City."
Li Xiang chuckled, "Past mistakes are future lessons."
Chen Sisi smiled, her voice rather pleasant. She opened a spatial vortex and, as she walked into it, slowly said, "You have repeatedly thwarted my plans, causing my recent performance among the Demon Clan Priests to be very poor. The Demon Clan High Priest is going to punish me, so perhaps You won't see me for a long time."
After speaking, her body completely disappeared into the vortex, and the vortex began to close.
At the last moment before the vortex closed, she heard a sentence.
"Then the next time You come to see me, I'll treat You to a drink as an apology."
A curve appeared at the corner of Chen Sisi's mouth, and the spatial vortex completely disappeared.
After Li Xiang finished speaking, he also took out a City Return Stone and directly activated it.
...
In Wu Shuang City, Li Xiang's figure appeared.
Doing the Blood God Apostle's task consumed a lot of time, and it was now evening.
Li Xiang directly rushed towards the equipment store.
At this moment, inside the equipment store, Wang Dagui was sitting upright. Beside him sat a group of NPCs.
If there were players here, they would find that all these NPCs were store manager-level NPCs from various stores in Wu Shuang City.
All the NPCs were craning their necks to look outside.
Wang Dagui said, "Everyone, please don't rush. Have some tea and wait for a moment. It's not yet the appointed time with the Royal Guard."
As soon as he finished speaking, a figure walked in.
Seeing Li Xiang, Wang Dagui immediately got up from his chair and came forward to greet him, "Royal Guard."
The rest of the NPCs all looked at Li Xiang. After seeing the royal guard badge Li Xiang was wearing, they all stood up, "Royal Guard."
However, they were not as respectful towards Li Xiang as Wang Dagui was, merely being polite due to his Imperial Guard status.
Wang Dagui welcomed Li Xiang to the main seat and sat on Li Xiang's left.
"Fellow colleagues, to be honest, my equipment store was able to undergo a complete upgrade because the Royal Guard invested Lord amounts of capital. I invited all of You here today because the Royal Guard also wants to share this opportunity with You, to help You overcome the current difficulties.
We all know that Wu Shuang City upgrading to a City is a certainty, and the upgrade will even be completed in the near future. If we don't prepare quickly, we will only be marginalized..."
Wang Dagui's words once again stirred up the anxiety of the NPCs present.
While Li Xiang felt that Wang Dagui seemed to have become much smarter, he was also observing the NPCs present.
The owners of over a dozen businesses, including the tailor shop owner, potion shop owner, blacksmith shop owner, odd jobs shop owner, etc., basically all the mainstream store owners in Wu Shuang City were invited.
Wang Dagui did a good job!!!
After giving Wang Dagui a thumbs-up in his heart, Li Xiang began to calculate how many gold coins would be needed to secure these NPCs...
