Yang Xiao was startled and said:
"Brother Xu, this Golden Eagle Bow has such high attributes and is valuable; I can’t just take it from you for nothing. I’ll give you Crystal Coins instead."
Xu Li laughed and said:
"If I wanted Crystal Coins, why would I give it to you? Wouldn’t I just sell it to the Genetic Store? Brother Yang, I see you as talented and want to make friends. If you don’t mind, take this bow. I don’t use bows, and neither do any of my close friends. To us, this bow is useless, but for you, it can still be of so use. We put a lot of effort into hunting this Golden Eagle."
In fact, when the spoils of war were divided, Xu Li actively requested this Golden Eagle Bow, which involved trading so Genetic Balls. For Xu Li, it was a minor expense.
Yang Xiao knew it would be pretentious to refuse any further, especially since he really liked it; the bow could instantly enhance his Archery by one level, adding 7 Agility points and 10% Lightning damage, which was irresistible.
Especially the 10% Lightning damage, it will add a Lightning damage on top of Yang Xiao’s comprehensive attack damage, and the damage value of this Lightning damage was around 10% of Yang Xiao’s total attack damage.
Simply put, it ant that Yang Xiao’s attack damage would increase by about 10%, which was incredibly rare.
"Alright, since Brother Xu insists, I won’t be polite then. I hope I can repay your kindness soday."
"Haha, sure thing."
Xu Li chatted casually for a bit and then returned to his team.
Even though Xu Li was sowhat utilitarian, as long as he bore no malice, Yang Xiao felt he was worth befriending. In this world, you can’t expect to be favored by everyone without bringing anything to the table, right?
It’s about mutual appreciation because there’s sothing special about you that others admire.
Huang Wen and the others, who all used bows, were amazed when they took Yang Xiao’s Golden Eagle Bow.
Gong Yu took the bow, weighed it, and said:
"This bow is worth at least 3000 Crystal Coins. 7 points of Agility isn’t uncommon, but 10% Lightning damage is rare, and having both attributes together is even rarer. Xu Li is sincerely trying to befriend you."
After equipping the Golden Eagle Bow, Yang Xiao’s original 36 points of Agility, plus 6 points from his necklace and bracelet, and an additional 7 points from the bow, brought his total Agility attribute to 49 points, nearly equivalent to the Enhanced Gene Interdiate stage.
Because tomorrow Gong Yu had to leave the Desert and it would be difficult to return, and since there was no Transmission Array between Magic City and Nanmu City, it ant Yang Xiao and Gong Yu might not see each other for so ti.
Yang Xiao and Gong Yu hit it off from the start, and their relationship had deepened over these days, especially after the fight with Liu Yiyi and Xie Dong; they had ford a brother-like bond of life and death.
"Gong Yu, when you go back, check which cities in Magic City have opened Transmission Arrays, and maybe visit the nearby cities. If it’s convenient, you can directly co to Nanmu City and I’ll bring you back to the Desert for more hunting adventures with you."
Gong Yu, surprised, laughed:
"You won’t have much ti in the Desert yourself, and besides, Desert entry spots are so valuable, why would your city’s managers give such an opportunity? Don’t worry about , I know I’ve reached my evolutionary bottleneck; any further enhancent is difficult. After returning to Magic City, if I feel like it, I may just go to the Ice Sea for so fun. With my current level of Genetic Evolution, I’m considered decent in Magic City, and most people wouldn’t dare to ss with ."
Yang Xiao didn’t push further, nor did he ntion that he was the King of Nanmu City; he felt it was better to keep so things private, especially since he carried the fate and fortune of over 20,000 residents of Nanmu City. Their circumstances had just started improving, and he couldn’t afford any mishaps.
After chatting for a while, Yang Xiao suddenly rembered the first ti he t Gong Yu, who was chasing a Saber-Toothed Tiger, and thus he smiled and said:
"Why would there be prehistoric giants in this part of the desert?"
Gong Yu, taken aback, asked, "What prehistoric giant?"
"Don’t you rember? When we first t, you were chasing a Saber-Toothed Tiger, isn’t that a prehistoric giant?"
Gong Yu, upon hearing this, laughed:
"That wasn’t so prehistoric giant, just a gene-mutated tiger from Tis City. Don’t be fooled by its size; it was only at the Interdiate stage of gene enhancent. I had the Giant Eagle with , so naturally, I wasn’t afraid. If I had been alone, I wouldn’t have been able to handle that giant beast. Besides, that beast wasn’t supposed to appear in the border areas; it likely lives in the Desert Forest and must have been chased out by other hunters, ending up accidentally at the desert’s edge. When I ca across such an opportunity, naturally, I wouldn’t let it pass."
Yang Xiao burst into laughter upon hearing this, suddenly feeling regret that there was no wine. If there had been wine, he could have drunk a few cups with Gong Yu, got completely drunk, and truly honored the brotherly camaraderie of parting.
The next morning, as they were seeing Gong Yu off, Yang Xiao and others also woke up early and started packing.
Xu Li ca over to say goodbye to Yang Xiao, leading his team onto the Transmission Array and departed.
Gong Yu and Yang Xiao embraced, wishing each other to take care, while Xie Dong and others in the distance also prepared to leave, planning to go together since they ca with Gong Yu.
Liu Yiyi bid farewell to the Fla Horse she had caught in the desert, one she had ridden for over twenty days, developing a bond. Since she couldn’t take it with her, she had to set it free again.
Gong Yu and the Giant Eagle hugged briefly before he turned away and left, while the Giant Eagle hovered in midair, continuously screeching.
Yang Xiao followed Gong Yu all the way to the Transmission Array.
Liu Yiyi glanced at Yang Xiao and said fiercely:
"Yang Xiao, you’re from Nanmu City, aren’t you?"
"Hmm?"
"Wait for it, one day I will co to Nanmu City to get revenge for the whip you owe . I hold grudges, and I will definitely get even."
Yang Xiao smiled and said:
"I can tell, you really are a spiteful woman. You’re always welco to co find in Nanmu City. Oh, and if you feel lonely on your journey, it’d be good to bring my brother Gong Yu with you for company, haha."
Xie Dong stood by with a dark expression on his face.
Liu Yiyi stomped her foot hard and glared at Yang Xiao. If she didn’t have to rush back to report, she would have charged out and fought him.
The light from the Transmission Array flickered, and Gong Yu and others disappeared.
Yang Xiao looked at the empty Transmission Array, feeling a sense of loss inside.
"Boss, what should we do?"
Qin Yu asked.
"We’ve been away for eight days. Let’s go ho first."
"Okay."
With that, Yang Xiao and his group entered the Transmission Array and pressed the ring of light labeled "Nanmu City," returning to Nanmu City.
As soon as Yang Xiao and his group entered the Transmission Array in Nanmu City, they heard soone shouting:
"The boss is back, the boss is back!"
In a mont, Xiao Zhe ran out of the building, looking anxious but also delighted.
"Yang Xiao, you’re finally back. Why did you take so long this ti, not returning for seven or eight days?"
Yang Xiao was stunned,
"It’s only been seven or eight days, what’s wrong? Did sothing happen at ho?"
Xiao Zhe nodded and said:
"There’s trouble at Star Moon Lake, people from Shanyun City clashed with us."
