Tomb raiding: Start with a proficiency panel

But the next second,

Outside, Shirley Yang abruptly pulled Zhou Nanbei's hand away.

Zhou Nanbei also opened his eyes.

"What are you going to do?"

Zhou Nanbei slightly withdrew his hand: "It seems you don't have that opportunity."

I don't want the money.

Of course, we don't plan to go on this trip either.

Upon hearing this, Shirley Yang's expression changed.

Why?

Zhou Nanbei darted back to his seat: "A curse,"

Isn't what I said obvious enough?

I just used spatial power to check for the curse within you, but...

I just tried the outer curse.

I just saw the core mark of the curse within you, and was about to test whether it could be removed.

You interrupted me.

Upon hearing this, Shirley Yang quickly apologized: "I'm sorry."

Young Master Zhou

My body just sent me a signal, as if I would be in grave danger if I didn't pull my hand away.

Zhou Nanbei frowned slightly upon hearing this.

But it dissipated in an instant: "It seems the curse within you..."

We've already been in close contact.

It's even gotten to the point where it can send signals to your body; this curse is more difficult to deal with than I thought.

At this moment, Shirley Yang walked up to Zhou Nanbei.

He knelt down immediately: "Young Master Zhou, I'm so grateful for your help."

I want to live.

I don't want my descendants to bear such a curse. I'm willing to give anything for your help.

Zhou Nanbei thought for a moment and then spoke:

"I want you to join my ranks, including everything your family left you abroad."

They all belong to me.

Shirley Yang frowned, but still spoke:

"Can,

But only if you can remove the curse from me.

Zhou Nanbei shook his head slightly:

"Okay, this time you don't resist anymore, otherwise..."

I will not intervene again.

At this point, a determined look appeared in Zhou Nanbei's eyes, not for any other reason than for his future.

They are not short of money.

Therefore, he had the confidence to refuse, but that was a year or two later; right now, it was merely about saving Shirley Yang.

That would net you billions of dollars.

He wouldn't refuse the opportunity to gain access to overseas resources, or even to meet Shirley Yang herself.

After all, it was just a simple gesture.

It wasn't too much trouble for him.

Shirley Yang didn't dare to argue further and simply nodded: "Young Master Zhou,"

"You do it."

Shirley Yang's voice pulled Zhou Nanbei back to reality.

Zhou Nanbei first looked at Sheng Sheng Man.

"Sister Man, keep an eye on her. If she gets affected by the curse again..."

You just need to control her.

Sheng Sheng Man nodded slightly: "Okay, Xiao Nanbei."

Just do your own thing.

Zhou Nanbei nodded slightly and placed his hand on Shirley Yang's shoulder.

At the same time, spatial perception spreads out.

Dispersing towards the curse, it effortlessly arrived before the mark, and the power of space drew near once more.

As for Shirley Yang from the outside world,

Large beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, but he still forced himself to control himself and not stop Zhou Nanbei.

From Zhou Nanbei's perspective,

Zhou Nanbei's spatial power came into contact with the mark.

They began to probe gradually.

In the end, Zhou Nanbei failed to find the physical entity, or rather,

Independent individual,

Helpless, Zhou Nanbei could only try his luck, gathering spatial power at a corner of the mark's edge.

Try to include it in the space.

But the next second, the power of space was activated, and Shirley Yang disappeared from the outside world, though only for less than a second.

Zhou Nanbei then released Shirley Yang.

Or,

Interrupt Shirley Yang's entry into the space, so that just as she disappeared and before she reappeared in the space...

He was pulled out.

At this moment, Zhou Nanbei opened his eyes and looked at Shirley Yang in front of him.

He sighed softly: "It seems..."

I cannot completely remove your curse.

Upon hearing this, Shirley Yang

Having recovered his senses, he asked, "Young Master Zhou, what just happened to me?"

Zhou Nanbei waved his hand slightly:

"It's nothing, I just teleported away and then pulled back."

Then he continued, "You should get up first."

Let me tell you what happened.

Shirley Yang agreed and stood up to sit down opposite her.

"Young Master Zhou,"

What exactly happened?

Zhou Nanbei quickly organized his thoughts and began, "I can only treat the symptoms, not the root cause, at this point."

Treating the symptoms means...

The special individual energy released by the curse is transferred out of your body, but to cure the root cause...

I just can't do it.

Because the cursed mark within you is connected to your bloodline, you are not a complete individual.

I just tried to teleport it out of your body.

………

He shrugged as he spoke.

"As you saw, the cursed mark became one with you."

One teleport,

You were teleported away too.

Shirley Yang's eyes showed sadness, but after thinking for a moment, she spoke:

"Young Master Zhou,"

"You seem to know me very well?"

Zhou Nanbei nodded slightly: "To be precise,

"It should be that I understand your people."

After thinking for a moment, he added, "The origins of your clan..."

Partridge Whistle

I think I've already told you, so I won't go into details. Your clan has been searching for the Muchen Pearl for generations.

The purpose is to break the curse.

"But I know where the Muchen Pearl is."

Upon hearing this, Shirley Yang was overjoyed: "Really?"

Young Master Zhou

"Do you really know where the Muchen Pearl is?"

Zhou Nanbei nodded slightly: "Of course."

Shirley Yang said almost without hesitation: "Okay, Young Master Zhou."

If you help me find the Muchen Pearl

The conditions I just mentioned are now in effect.

Zhou Nanbei remained noncommittal.

"Sure, but don't rush. I guarantee it will be within two years."

I'll help you find the Muchen Pearl.

He paused for a moment before continuing, "There is no Muchen Pearl in the Jingjue Ancient City."

You don't need to go.

Also, don't harm others there; that's the source of the curse. Once you've entered the Jingjue Ancient City,

They will also be cursed.

So disband the archaeological team you sponsored. For now, you can stay with me, or you can...

Go back abroad first to handle family matters.

I will let you know when I set off for the location of the Muchen Pearl.

Shirley Yang glanced apologetically at Hu Bayi and the others:

"I'm sorry, I didn't know that place was open to anyone."

Leave behind a curse.

Fatty Wang wouldn't let it go: "I don't know,"

A simple "I don't know" was all it took.

That curse will bring misfortune to your ancestors for eighteen generations!

Zhou Nanbei couldn't help but laugh out loud.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "It's not that short."

Upon hearing this,

Sheng Sheng Man and the others also laughed out loud. Zhou Nanbei then explained, "Shirley Yang's family..."

It has been harmed for thousands of years.

You can figure it out yourselves.

At this moment, Shirley Yang spoke up: "Young Master Zhou,"

Sponsoring the archaeological team,

I can end it, or I choose to stay by your side, but I need to go back abroad first.

Handle family matters properly.

That way I can get here.

Zhou Nanbei raised an eyebrow: "You trust me that much?"

Shirley Yang naturally didn't believe it, or rather,

Not completely believed,

After all, it was their first meeting, and even if Zhou Nanbei's words were incredibly eloquent, suspicion was inevitable.

But this was Shirley Young's only hope.

Their clan had been in despair for thousands of years, but now there was hope, even if she couldn't fully believe it.

But I believed it to be about 80%.

Of course, the most crucial thing is...

She was out of options.

Or perhaps their clan hasn't had any members for thousands of years.

"Young Master Zhou,"

Honestly, I can only believe about 80% of what you say, but now I have no choice but to believe you.

There's no other way.

Zhou Nanbei snapped his fingers: "You're at least honest."

Do not worry,

I didn't lie to you, I do know where the Muchen Pearl is, but I have my own plans to leave.

And the location of the Muchen Pearl

This is the last place I'll be going, so don't worry.

After offering a word of comfort,

Zhou Nanbei then asked, "Oh,"

correct,

"Is Partridge Whistle still alive?"
