Chapter 312: Chapter 303: Alcohol, Mediator, Melting Ice

Gao Dalou sighed, "Alas, consider me unlucky. When I was a child, my old man taught me how to be a Soul Guidance Device Master. Our lineage has always been a single transmission, somewhat similar to a sect but without the strength of one. My father believed his abilities were sufficient to teach me, so he didn't send me to an elementary Soul Master Academy. However, when I was fourteen and had just broken through to the level 3 Soul Engineer level, my father suddenly died under mysterious circumstances. By the time we found him, even his internal organs were missing; he died a horrific death. My old man was a miser, always uneasy about the whereabouts of the family's wealth, usually keeping it on himself in a storage soul tool. Now that he's dead, we have nothing left. My mother died early, and although we had a few servants, we couldn't pay them without money; soon, I became a loner."
