Chapter 443: Dudu's Resurrection

Chapter 443: Dudu's Resurrection

In Zone 1, Li Wu's side.

After dealing with Zhang Chen's situation, turning him into his pawn, and retrieving the fragment, Li Wu could no longer contain his eagerness.

He began to attempt Dudu's resurrection.

According to the feedback from the fragment, there were a few conditions necessary for Dudu's revival.

Either Dudu's corpse or an item closely related to her was required.

The former would allow for a direct resurrection, while for the latter, Li Wu needed to prepare a body for Dudu.

Dudu's corpse had already been lost in Elder Mountain, making the former option nearly impossible. Thus, Li Wu had no choice but to opt for the latter.

To do so, Li Wu needed a crucial item—one that he had originally kept in the research facility within the Mystic Realm of the Undead.

That place held a deep imprint of Dudu, making it the most suitable medium for her resurrection.

So, after seeing Zhang Chen off, Li Wu immediately headed towards the Mystic Realm of the Undead.

After just a few days, when Li Wu returned to the Mystic Realm of the Undead, everything had changed.

The base he had painstakingly built was now almost entirely dismantled.

Looking at the scattered remains of the base, Li Wu's gaze turned icy cold. With a cold snort, he eliminated everyone still present in the base without leaving a single survivor.

This sudden slaughter and extreme disregard for life caused the old man's perception of Li Wu to plummet.

Although he wouldn't interfere with Li Wu's affairs or hinder him, he was unwilling to have his daughter stay by such a person's side.

It was too unsettling.

Of course, Li Wu was completely unaware of this.

After casually dealing with the people in the base, he began searching for the research facility`. However, after a thorough search, Li Wu found nothing.

"What's going on? Where's the research facility? Did the Alliance move it?"

Li Wu was taken aback, just as he was about to ask someone about it, he realized that most of the people were gone.

This was a bit awkward, but fortunately, Li Wu soon sensed an aura in the location where the research facility had been.

"This is the aura of the Gate of the Undead. Did someone use the Gate of the Undead to move the research facility?"

Li Wu's eyes lit up.

He thought he knew who was behind this.

Immediately, Li Wu took out the Gate of the Undead, opened the gate, and stepped through.

As Li Wu entered, he found himself in a place so dark that he couldn't see his hand in front of his face.

However, with Li Wu's current strength, this darkness had no effect on his vision.

He clearly saw that he was in a black valley, and right in front of him was the research facility he sought.

At the same time, Li Wu also spotted several people near the research facility.

When they noticed Li Wu, they hurriedly approached him.

"Chieftain..."

"Li Wu, are you alright?"

Among them were one of the 72 Disciples, Jiang Yuxing, and other core members of the Zero Organization.

They had evacuated when Li Wu was being besieged, allowing them to survive that unexpected turn of events.

"Well done!"

Li Wu was particularly pleased with the 72 Disciple's actions in preserving the research facility. He patted him on the shoulder in appreciation.

After a brief exchange with Jiang Yuxing, Li Wu, eager to resurrect Dudu, quickly led the 72 Disciple and the others out.

They opened and closed the Gate of the Undead, emerging from the black valley and appearing in Jiangnan Fuchen City.

Suddenly appearing in the city center after being hidden in the darkness startled both the 72 Disciple and Jiang Yuxing.

Had only a few days passed?

Jiang Yuxing hadn't forgotten the scene from a few days ago when Elder Mountain had intervened forcefully.

If not for that villain's timely intervention, Li Wu would have been obliterated, and his base would have been destroyed.

In Jiang Yuxing's eyes, although they had narrowly escaped, the Alliance was likely still keeping an eye on them. Li Wu's bold appearance in Fuchen City might provoke another siege by Elder Mountain.

"Li Wu, is there a problem with the location? We should quickly..."

"No!"

"Huh?" Jiang Yuxing was taken aback, looking at Li Wu in confusion.

"My location is correct. I came to Fuchen City with no issues!"

Jiang Yuxing was completely baffled. She wondered if Li Wu had a fever. Did he know what he was doing? Did he want to face another siege by Elder Mountain?

"Don't worry, Aunt Jiang. Everything is fine. Those old folks from Elder Mountain won't dare to come!

I just killed Fei Yinghao and Wood Old Man today. There are only four remaining elders in Elder Mountain, and they are already scared of me. Now, even if they hear about me, they might not have the courage to confront me!"

Li Wu patiently and earnestly explained to Jiang Yuxing.

As Lu Wu spoke, Jiang Yuxing couldn't help but place her hand on his forehead, wanting to check if he had a fever and if he knew what he was saying. After all, Lu Wu's words were incredibly hard to believe.

Just a few days ago, Lu Wu had been beaten up by the Elder Mountain's people and only managed to escape thanks to Lu Haikong.

Today, he suddenly claimed that he had almost played the Elder Mountain, a statement that no one would dare to believe.

But to Jiang Yuxing's horror, she began to suspect that Lu Wu's words might be true.

Because, soon after, Lu Wu took them directly to the Governor's Mansion.

Lu Wu's arrival caused a commotion at the Jiangnan Province Governor's Mansion, and the newly appointed governor approached Lu Wu with utmost respect.

The level of reverence and flattery was so extreme that it was almost incomprehensible.

This was not the attitude one should have towards a wanted criminal by the Alliance, but rather towards a respected elder or even a member of the Elder Council.

The governor's behavior indicated that Lu Wu's previous claims were likely to be true.

To confirm, Jiang Yuxing asked the governor about it.

In response, the governor of Jiangnan clung to Lu Wu's leg and began to flatter him excessively.

The governor's words were incredibly detailed and legendary.

From Lu Wu's appearance in the capital, designing the destruction of the Feng Family in front of the Elders, to his appearance in the Holy Church Alliance, where he almost killed Feng Yinghao.

Finally, the Elder Council respectfully escorted Lu Wu out of the Elder Mountain, and after Lu Wu's departure, they immediately announced the sealing of the mountain.

The governor's words were all things Lu Wu had mentioned before.

But when Lu Wu spoke, he only nodded and didn't elaborate, as he had no time to boast about himself and didn't mention any details, leaving Jiang Yuxing and the others confused.

Now, the governor of Jiangnan narrated Lu Wu's actions with a legendary flair, making them seem like a thrilling adventure. Jiang Yuxing and the 72 Acolytes were left in awe, their eyes wide and their minds captivated.

More importantly, the governor's attitude further confirmed that what he said was true.

If it weren't true, the governor wouldn't dare to fawn over Lu Wu like this.

His actions indicated that the authority of the Elder Mountain was beginning to waver.

And the only thing that could shake the Elder Mountain's authority was what Lu Wu had just said.

"I'm done here. Are you guys almost finished? If so, let's go."

While Jiang Yuxing and the others were engrossed in the story, Lu Wu took the opportunity to attend to his important matters. After finishing, he returned and directly led the stunned Jiang Yuxing and the others away from Fuchen City.

Leaving Fuchen, Lu Wu returned to his new base, the Changping Mystic Realm.

Back in Changping, Jiang Yuxing wanted to talk to Lu Wu, hesitating as she spoke, "Lu Wu, there's something I want to discuss with you..."

"Sorry, Aunt Jiang, I have some important matters to attend to..."

"Alright, you go ahead!"

"Mm-hmm!"

In no time, the little skeleton had brought a pig and a human skeleton to Li Wu, and they were indeed quite beautiful in every sense of the word.

The little guy had even dressed them up, tying a butterfly knot on their clothes, creating a rather flashy display.

Li Wu couldn't help but feel a mix of amusement and exasperation.

"That's not what I meant by beautiful, is it?"

(What did he mean?)



The little skeleton tilted its head, hands on its hips, as if to say, "Did I not make them beautiful enough? Can't I, a little skeleton, do anything right?"

"Beautiful, beautiful, you're the best at this, little skeleton!"

Li Wu raised his hands in surrender, patted the little guy's head, and then got to work, removing the unnecessary decorations.

As he started, a golden figure darted out, its tail flicking, and pinned Li Wu down, rubbing against him frantically.

Just moments ago, Li Wu had been effortlessly controlling others' lives, but now he was reduced to a meek and apologetic state, unable to resist, he kept apologizing.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to use you as bait. I didn't know he'd be so fierce. I promise I won't do it again!"

The old father, who had been secretly watching, was shocked by this scene.

He couldn't believe his eyes, even rubbing them to make sure he wasn't mistaken.

The Li Wu before him was completely different from the one he had seen earlier.

Before returning to the Changping Mystic Realm and meeting the little skeleton, Li Wu had been extremely cold and indifferent, even bordering on madness.

Li Wu's body had been filled with negative energy, but upon his return to the Changping Mystic Realm and the little skeleton's side, he underwent a transformation.

The darkness that had enveloped him seemed to dissipate, and the sunlight seemed to shine upon him, making Li Wu radiate with positivity.

The old father couldn't bring himself to associate the Li Wu before him with the one he had seen earlier.

If this were outside, wouldn't this little golden dragon be stewed by Li Wu in no time?

Li Wu, on the other hand, had to work hard to gain the little golden dragon's forgiveness and get back to work.

He carefully removed the decorations that the little skeleton had put on the two skeletons, and the little skeleton watched without a hint of sadness, only a little annoyed. But when Li Wu patted its head, it became happy and eagerly helped.

With the little skeleton's help, Li Wu quickly finished the preparations.

After the preparations were complete, Li Wu picked up the fragment in his hand and began his first-ever summoning.

"Gateway, I need you to help me revive Dudu and Tuan Tuan!"

With these simple and direct words, the Gateway fragment in Li Wu's hand began to glow.

As the light shone, a mysterious force came into play.

Just like when Zhang Chen had used it, except this time, it was real. Before, Zhang Chen's use had been influenced by Li Wu's mental state, but now, Li Wu's summoning was genuine.

The mysterious force rippled, and the two skeletons in front of Li Wu were enveloped by it.

Within this mysterious force, the pig began to change first.

The skeleton started to transform, and in less than three minutes, a living pig appeared before Li Wu and the others.

As the pig came back to life, the little skeleton beside Li Wu was initially stunned, but soon its eyes lit up with excitement.

(Tuan Tuan! Li Wu, look, it's Tuan Tuan! The bones have turned into Tuan Tuan!)



The little skeleton was clearly overjoyed.

After all, although the pig had always bullied it, they had grown up together, and their bond was deep.

The little skeleton had felt lonely without the pig by its side.

Now that Tuan Tuan had reappeared, and especially when the little skeleton realized that the revived Tuan Tuan was only at the King level, far weaker than it, the little skeleton was even happier.

Finally, it was its turn to bully Tuan Tuan.

While the little skeleton was delighted, Li Wu couldn't help but feel a bit uneasy.

Although Tuan Tuan had been revived, there was no sign of Dudu. Li Wu was concerned that something might be wrong.

Soon, his worries became a reality.

The prepared skeleton suddenly shattered, and at the same time, information flowed from the Gateway fragment into Li Wu's mind.
