Chapter 829: Big Gift
"Perimeter of the ancient ruins, desolate grassland. The Contract Holders' Great Melee has begun. Inside the ancient ruins, there's continuous roaring, but it's pretty lonely on the outskirts.
A gentle breeze blows, lifting a myriad of grass seeds into the air, swirling amidst the grass blades. Su Xiao walks through the desolate grass, a map in front of him. Bubu Wang, who has been trailing him, is nowhere to be seen.
Though Bubu Wang's combat strength is weak, he serves as an amateur caretaker and a professional scout. Yes, Bubu Wang is a professional scout. Its 'You Can't See Me (Passive, Self-Comprehensive Skill)' can shield it from most perceptions.
Moreover, after seizing the World Core, Su Xiao discovered an additional skill for Bubu Wang. Skill 7: The Secret Gaze of the Wang Star (Passive, Self-Comprehensive Skill). While observing enemies within 30 meters, there's an 80% reduction in the chance of being detected. If an enemy senses Bubu Britney's gaze, it swiftly enters the 'You Can't See Me' state.
...
This newly emerged skill is quite simple: when Bubu Wang observes enemies within 30 meters, there's only a one-fifth chance they'll detect its gaze. Even if they do, it immediately enters the 'You Can't See Me' state. The combination of these two skills is shameless.
Bubu Wang gazes at the enemy. If the enemy notices, Bubu Wang swiftly melds with the surroundings. The enemy loses track of Bubu Wang's location, and the cycle continues. The enemy's experience isn't pleasant.
By now, Bubu Wang has already arrived first at Lan Jue's appointed battle location to observe the situation. Su Xiao holds a communication device, knowing Bubu Wang can't use a language communicator. Even though Su Xiao's 'Beast Language MAX,' when communicating with Bubu Wang, relies on the dog's expressions and actions to understand its intentions.
After about ten minutes, the communication device in Su Xiao's hand flashes a green light, indicating a message has arrived. He opens the communicator. Bubu Wang: "Master, I spotted an enemy at the specified location, bald, wearing a leather jacket." Seeing the message from Bubu Wang, Su Xiao nods. Lan Jue's coming for the appointment isn't surprising.
Su Xiao: "Are there others?" Bubu Wang: "I didn't see... wait." After a while, Bubu Wang sends another message. Bubu Wang: "There seem to be many creatures lurking near the enemy. Master, I need to pee." Su Xiao: "Hold it. Lazy donkeys pee a lot. Keep observing."
Bubu Wang: "Okay, but... I still want to pee~"
Closing the communicator, Su Xiao heads in Bubu Wang's direction. After a preliminary observation, Lan Jue is coming along for the appointment. On the desolate grassland, a cheetah lazily lies on the ground, with Lan Jue sitting beside it.
"Too bad, I can only transform insects into summons. I hate bugs." Lan Jue pats the cheetah's head in front of him; it's just an ordinary wild cheetah. "Go back; I'm waiting for someone." Hearing Lan Jue's words, the cheetah stands up and looks at Lan Jue.
"Let's go; it's dangerous here."
Lan Jue removes his leather jacket. He wears a black vest with slightly tanned skin, and the metallic arrows of the Ghost Bee flutter inside his arrow sheath around his waist. The cheetah gradually walks away, occasionally glancing back at Lan Jue. It doesn't sense hostility in this human but instead feels a sense of closeness.
After the cheetah leaves, the smile fades from Lan Jue's face. He feels like someone is watching him, but no matter how he looks, he can't find where that gaze is coming from.
With grass fragments floating around, Lan Jue's gaze shifts to a distant figure gradually approaching.
"It's surprising you've come alone to face me. I thought you'd bring help, or perhaps your assistants are hiding in the shadows." Lan Jue shouts, simultaneously snapping his fingers. Hundreds of mechanical bees appear by his side; this is Lan Jue's summoning style—hundreds and hundreds of summons.
"You guessed right. This time, I'm not alone. I have prepared a grand gift for you."
Su Xiao stops about a hundred meters away from Lan Jue, knowing that Lan Jue will retreat if he advances further.
"A gift? Coincidentally, I've prepared something for you, too." Lan Jue's voice grows softer. The reason is that Su Xiao takes out a glass bottle about the length of a finger, emitting a shimmering golden light.
"This thing... doesn't seem too friendly." Lan Jue knows he can't delay any longer; he's ranged, while his enemy is melee. The longer the delay, the more advantageous it is for the enemy. They've already had one encounter, so there's no need for further probing.
With a tight grip, Su Xiao snaps, and the golden glass bottle in his hand shatters.

The 'Ashes of Resentment' floats in mid-air. This item is a one-time-use golden-quality item that, when used, summons the Orphan of Resentment. The Orphan of Resentment·Sis exists for 3 to 20 minutes, and Su Xiao's intelligence attribute determines its existence duration. The Orphan of Resentment's various attributes also follow this rule.

...
The Orphan of Resentment·Sis, standing over three meters tall, is in front of Su Xiao. Sis has no muscles or skin, only bones. Careful observation reveals organs within its ribcage and body tissues like eyeballs and a brain inside the skull.
The white bones are wrapped in a thin membrane as if the flesh has been peeled off. The Orphan of Resentment·Sis holds a muscular, curved knife as its weapon. The Orphan of Resentment·Sis nearly beat Su Xiao to death before. Now, it is Su Xiao's summons."
