Dou Youyou, though puzzled, still held Ritian.
The lecherous dog lay in Dou Youyou's embrace, utterly pampered.
Zhang Pingfan's slap stunned Ritian.
"Drop that silly demeanor and look at this staff to see what's wrong with it!"
Ritian was furious after being slapped by Zhang Pingfan.
He glared at Zhang Pingfan and let out a string of shouts.
Perhaps emboldened by Dou Youyou holding him, he was completely arrogant.
"Hey, I think you're asking for a beating, aren't you?"
As Zhang Pingfan moved to strike Ritian, Dou Youyou intervened.
"Alright, Master, you're too rough. No one will like you like this. Ritian, be good, help sister take a look. This staff is the one sister has always used. See if there's anything wrong with it!"
Although Dou Youyou found it absurd, it was a game, and perhaps it could work.
Under Dou Youyou's appeasement, Ritian finally calmed down, clearly unwilling to argue with his master.
Ritian looked at the staff placed on the ground.
He had noticed this thing the moment Dou Youyou picked it up.
There was a seal on this staff. Once Dou Youyou reached the maximum level, the seal would naturally be lifted.
Of course, it could also be lifted in advance, but only when the trigger condition was met.
However, such a seal was child's play in Ritian's eyes.
Ritian pretended to examine it for a few moments, then sniffed it with his nose.
Then, he placed a dog paw on the staff's gem.
Following this, cracking sounds could be heard.
The crowd visibly saw the staff crack.
As the cracking sounds intensified, more and more cracks appeared on the staff.
With a gentle tap of Ritian's paw.
The outer shell of the staff fell off, revealing its brand-new color. The staff, which was originally dull and black, now shone with a glossy black.
Not only that, but wisps of black energy began to circle and move around the staff.
Its appearance was a world of difference from before.
Zhang Pingfan's eyes widened as he witnessed everything. So, all it took was a press of that gem.
This damned dog had unsealed the staff by accident?
Dou Youyou excitedly hugged Ritian and kissed him, distorting Ritian's face.
Seeing the lecherous dog's enjoyment, Zhang Pingfan wished he could bury him.
Considering that he had accidentally unsealed the staff, Zhang Pingfan couldn't be bothered to argue with him, treating it as a reward.
Zhang Pingfan picked up the staff for inspection.
Compared to before, the staff's attributes were vastly different.
At this moment, the staff's attributes had surpassed the Golden Sword Xuanwu, which ranked first.
"Damn, Golden Sword Xuanwu only has 12,000 attack, and your staff has 20,000 attack. Isn't that too much?"
Dou Youyou was filled with excitement.
Seeing that others had divine artifacts, it was impossible not to be jealous. But she hadn't expected her staff to be so powerful.
"Master, isn't my staff amazing? It's much better than the ones you brought, humph!"
Clearly, Dou Youyou was still a little displeased that Zhang Pingfan hadn't brought her a divine artifact.
However, the outside world had already erupted.
The moment the Golden Sword Xuanwu appeared, players couldn't believe their eyes, thinking they had misread.
Platinum equipment had driven players crazy. However, although Platinum equipment was powerful, it was rare, and it was dominated by the major guilds.
But today, a divine artifact suddenly appeared. Its attributes were far superior to Platinum equipment.
"Holy crap, my old baby, a divine artifact has appeared!"
"What? What appeared? Platinum equipment appeared!"
"What Platinum equipment? Platinum equipment is like a little brother in front of this. This is a true divine artifact!"
"Damn, it really is a divine artifact! I used to think Dou Youyou's weapon was already amazing, but compared to this, the difference is too great. Who is it? Changsheng? Isn't that the village chief's disciple?"
"It's over, village chief. He disappeared for two months to find a divine artifact, and now that he's back, his disciple has a divine artifact. Could it be that everyone has a divine artifact!"
"Absolutely impossible. How can such a monstrous thing like a divine artifact be possessed by everyone at once? Unless..."
"Unless what? The rankings have changed again. Dou Youyou's staff is now ranked fifth. The top 4 are all divine artifacts!"
"Damn, and you said it was impossible. The owners of these four divine artifacts are all the village chief's disciples!"
"What was the village chief doing disappearing for so long? So, he was finding equipment for his disciples!"
"What's the point of playing anymore? Look at the top-ranked divine artifact, it's simply monstrous!"
"Holy cow, the Four Great Families are in for a tough time. Now that the village chief is back, there's bound to be some drama!"
"I can already imagine how disastrously the Four Great Families will be defeated. They've been arrogant for two months, but what goes around comes around!"
"Strange, isn't Dou Youyou very close to her master? Why didn't she get a divine artifact?"
"Now that you mention it, that's true. Why hasn't Dou Youyou's weapon been updated yet? She's the Goddess of War after all. If her weapon isn't updated, the title of First War God will have to change hands!"
Everyone was eagerly awaiting the update of Dou Youyou's weapon, but several minutes passed, and her weapon remained unchanged.
"Damn, did the village chief fail to get her a weapon? Divine artifacts are not that easy to obtain!"
The clan leaders of the Four Great Families were also silently monitoring the refresh results of the equipment leaderboard. Several minutes passed with no movement, so it seemed there were no more. However, even so, they still had to face four divine artifacts.
Among them, one divine artifact might not be usable for the time being, and that was Nangong Qingyu's.
Although Nangong Qingyu had returned to the Nangong family, he completely ignored the tasks arranged by the Nangong family.
However, under his father's persuasion, Nangong Qingyu did not attack the Nangong family members.
But this did not mean that Nangong Qing would go easy on the other three great families!
"Fortunately, only four divine artifacts were updated. If Dou Youyou got another divine artifact, her combat power would be even more terrifying!"
"With the village chief causing such a stir as soon as he returned, releasing four divine artifacts, what are we supposed to do?"
"The village chief's return is indeed a troublesome matter. However, we currently hold the initiative and can negotiate with the village chief and his group. Even if they refuse to cooperate, our current strength is not weaker than theirs. No matter how strong they are, it's only those few individuals. The other intermediate forces are still no match for us!"
"Exactly, so what if he's back? The game's landscape is already set, and the village chief is powerless to turn the tide!"
Just as everyone had given up hope, the equipment leaderboard updated again. Dou Youyou's weapon had once again risen to first place, and its attributes shocked the entire server.
