Ye Yuan looked at her friend's serious expression, knowing that she wasn't joking.
Fighting was truly not something Bai Xue enjoyed.
Recalling Bai Xue's past combat scenes, Ye Yuan also revealed a smile.
She was truly clumsy.
"Mm, I support you. We're the best of friends, Bai Xue. If you really convince your family, I'll go with you too!"
Ye Yuan held Bai Xue's hand and said firmly, "And, I was the first to discover this Dungeon, so I'm also willing to make a pact with this Dungeon."
"Haha! Your support is enough!"
Bai Xue showed a bright smile.
She no longer hesitated and rushed straight home.
To convince her father!
This was a decision she had carefully considered.
An hour in Stardew Valley was very short, but it was also six days. Making such a life-altering decision in an hour seemed foolish, but six days of experience made Bai Xue realize that such an experience was truly worthwhile, and she had also grown to like that place.
Thinking of the Dungeon with her own farm, Bai Xue felt herself filled with strength, hope, and anticipation!
-----------------
At this moment, in a gloomy palace.
The dim light within the palace shrouded the throne in shadow, making it impossible to discern the person sitting on it.
And in this palace, a huge crystal refracted a figure that appeared before the person on the throne.
The figure refracted in the crystal was clearly visible.
It was a middle-aged man with white hair and cat ears. The man had long white hair, and although he had a pair of cat ears on his head, his face was very rugged, and he carried a huge greatsword on his back.
Facing the Lord on the throne,
the white-haired middle-aged man spoke, "Lord House, our cooperation can be further improved, and I hope you can also provide better rewards and Dungeons."
The man on the throne replied with a gloomy voice, "Of course, I am very happy to continue our cooperation. It would be an honor for my Dungeon if it could gain the favor of your Guild's Adventurers."
"Naturally, but before cooperation, it's about my daughter."
When saying this, the white-haired middle-aged man's expression was very awkward.
"Oh, I understand. I will make good arrangements. If your daughter comes to my Dungeon, I will definitely assist her in obtaining the Silver-tier Adventurer title."
Lord House understood and immediately replied.
Although he was a Lord, he still had requests for the middle-aged man in front of him.
After all, he was only a Silver-tier Lord.
And the other party was the Guild Master of a Guild named Bai Ning Guild, who had reached the Gold-tier, and there were more than a dozen Gold-tier Adventurers within his Guild, with thousands of other Silver-tier and Bronze-level Adventurers, making it a truly large Guild.
He greatly needed to establish cooperation with this Guild Master so that the Adventurers from this large Guild could explore his Dungeon, increasing its popularity and soul crystal income.
He, in turn, would need to provide some special services to the Adventurers of this Guild, such as discounted entry fees or increased Dungeon rewards.
This was the content of the cooperation.
"That's good."
The white-haired middle-aged man smiled.
"I will arrange for Bai Xue to go to your Dungeon later. If she feels good about your Dungeon and is attracted to make a pact with it, then our cooperation might be able to deepen further."
"Of course, no problem."
Lord House nodded repeatedly upon hearing this.
"Then I shall take my leave."
After he finished speaking, the crystal in the palace dimmed, and the figure of the white-haired middle-aged man disappeared.
"Bai Xue?"
Sitting on the throne, Lord House thought for a moment.
He seemed to have some impression.
Suddenly, a cloaked figure appeared in his mind.
"Oh, so it was that noob... Adventurer!"
He remembered.
Bai Xue seemed to have visited his Dungeon before. He remembered that she seemed to have been ambushed and killed at the entrance by two assassin-type skeleton monsters placed behind the door in his Dungeon, never even entering the Dungeon...
And then she never came again.
"This..."
Lord House remembered, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
"No, I need to specially adjust the Dungeon's difficulty!"
Immediately, he quickly set up a Dungeon, removing all traps, such as monsters hiding at the entrance, deep pit traps under the ground, landmines, suddenly collapsing floors, and small bosses that feigned death...
With a series of operations, he transformed the extremely difficult Dungeon into an ordinary Dungeon with only a dozen or so skeleton and bat monsters.
Out of professional habit, although there were fewer traps, he subconsciously strengthened the Dungeon's maze attribute.
He felt that a Dungeon still needed some difficulty.
However, this difficulty was already very low, at least 80% lower than the original difficulty.
"This should be enough!"
Lord House nodded with satisfaction.
He had already begun to fantasize about the scene where the Guild Master's daughter would easily pass through the Dungeon and happily make a pact with him.
And then gain the favor of the large Guild.
-----------------
At the same time.
The white-haired middle-aged man ended his communication with Lord House and turned off the crystal in the room.
Just as he walked out the door, he heard the noise from the Guild hall next to the wall.
"The little princess is back!"
"Princess, can Big Sister give you a hug?"
"Little princess..."
At this moment, in the hall of the Bai Ning Guild, as a person rushed in with great fanfare, it instantly became noisy.
Even though this person was wearing a cloak, her petite figure and slightly exposed white tail allowed the Adventurers here to instantly recognize who was under the cloak.
It was their Guild's young miss, and everyone's beloved little princess—Bai Xue!
"Bai Xue, what's the rush?"
Just as Bai Xue was walking into the Guild, a broad-chested Big Sister blocked her way.
The other party was wearing a black magic robe and carrying a large wine bottle.
Bai Xue was stunned for a moment when she saw the other party, then said with a laugh, "Big Sister Kali, where's my dad?"
Even though Kali looked drunk, she still replied clearly.
"Your dad? He's probably in the Guild Master's room."
Kali said.
"Oh."
Bai Xue nodded, just about to go around her.
But suddenly, Kali put her arm around Bai Xue's neck and said, "Bai Xue, Big Sister saw you go to the Fourth Block. What did you go for? Looking for a boyfriend?"
"Big Sister Kali! If you keep saying that, I'm going to get angry!"
Bai Xue struggled free from Kali's embrace, feigning anger.
"Alright, alright, go ahead."
Kali said with a chuckle upon seeing this.
She no longer pestered Bai Xue, moved out of the way, and went back to drinking.
Bai Xue ignored the drunk Kali and walked straight into the Guild to find her dad.
As soon as she walked up to the second floor, she saw that her dad was already waiting in front of her.
"What's wrong? Why the rush?"
Unlike the short Bai Xue, her dad was very tall, at least 1.9 meters, and carried a greatsword, giving him a powerful aura.
Ordinary Adventurers would tremble when facing him.
But Bai Xue wasn't intimidated and said directly, "Bai Feng, I have something to discuss with you."
