"I'm sorry, Xiao Mei, I have to accompany my sister to go shopping in Utan City tomorrow, so I may not be able to go to Battle Arena with you." Gu Yunzhi intimately linked arms with Xiao Yan, her face showing a hint of apology, elegant and gentle.
Amid the surprised looks around them, the intimate interaction between Xiao Yan and Gu Yunzhi made the scene somewhat delicate, even a bit fiery.
Xiao Mei was a little stunned by Gu Yunzhi's sudden move, and her smile at the corner of her mouth appeared somewhat stiff, but she still gracefully responded, "Then I wish you and your sister a pleasant shopping trip tomorrow."
Xiao Yan felt the warmth on Gu Yunzhi's arm, and the coldness in his eyes softened a bit.
He nodded to Xiao Mei in gratitude, then turned and walked towards the exit of the training ground with Gu Yunzhi.
Leaving the training ground, the evening sun sprinkled its remaining light on the two of them. Gu Yunzhi slowly released Xiao Yan's arm and smiled, saying, "It looks like your position in the family has returned."
Xiao Yan smiled faintly and said lightly, "That's just temporary. The real challenge is still ahead. On the day of the Rite of Passage retest, higher-level practitioners of the eight and ninth stages of Qi of Fight from the Xiao family can challenge me."
Gu Yunzhi looked at Xiao Yan's profile and felt his calmness and confidence, which made her appreciate him more.
She gently said, "Regardless, you did very well today."
Xiao Yan looked at the distant sky, the endless glow seemed to indicate that the future road was still long. He turned back and said to Gu Yunzhi, "Let's go for a walk in Utan City tomorrow."
A hint of anticipation flashed in Gu Yunzhi's eyes, she nodded and said, "Sure, I'm looking forward to it."
So, in the lingering light of the setting sun, the two of them walked side by side.
And behind them, Xiao Mei watched their retreating figures, her eyes filled with complex emotions gradually settling.
She knew that Xiao Yan was no longer the useless Xiao Yan from before, and she also needed to put in more effort to make up for the previous alienation, perhaps only then could she win back Xiao Yan's indifferent heart.
Of course, Xiao Yan didn't know what Xiao Mei was thinking at this moment.
Gu Yunzhi returned to the room and couldn't help but recall the scene from earlier. When she instinctively held Xiao Yan's hand, a special notification sound rang in her ears:
"Congratulations, master, you have successfully helped Xiao Yan reject Xiao Mei, and have received 50,000 gold coins, 10,000 experience points, and a chance to draw a prize. So far, you have accumulated six chances to draw a prize, and you can choose to use five chances to exchange for a specified item."
Following that, a new notification appeared:
"Ding dong, Yu Yun successfully broke through to four stars in Battle Emperor and specially rewards you with an item box."
A glimmer of anticipation flashed in Gu Yunzhi's eyes, unable to resist asking, " Xiao-I, can you exchange for any designated item?"
Xiao-I's voice echoed in the air, answering, "Not necessarily. The specified item must be within the reach of Yu Yun's abilities. If it's an item that is too high-level, it cannot be obtained. But with the lottery, it's different. You may get good items, or you may get items of a lower level."
Hearing this, Gu Yunzhi couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. She had originally thought she could obtain some rare treasures, such as the Broken Sect Pill or the Imperial Pill. Now it seemed that these were just wishful thinking. However, when she thought about Yu Yun being able to break through and obtain the prop box, her mood couldn't help but lift again.
Her fingers lightly tapped the tabletop as she pondered her next move. She inquired again, " Xiao-I, now that Yu Yun has advanced to the four-star Battle Emperor, can it choose to obtain the Sixth-tier Earth Fiend Core, the Sixth Stage Wood Demon Core, or the Sixth-tier Water Fiend Core?"
Xiao-I's response surprised Gu Yunzhi slightly, "Based on Yu Yun's current level, it can only obtain the Sixth-tier Earth Fiend Core - the core of the Giant Stone Ant Beast. Furthermore, once exchanged, Yu Yun will be unable to use battle energy for three days."
"What?!" This news left Gu Yunzhi feeling incredulous, her eyes widening in disappointment.
She exclaimed, "To pay such a price, this is not what I expected at all." She lowered her head in contemplation, clearly feeling dissatisfied with such a rule.
Xiao-I said helplessly, "There's no way, this is the rule."
"Then I want to open the prop box," Gu Yunzhi said without hesitation, praying in his heart that the prop box must contain something as good as the one he drew last time, the "The Purple Abyss Cauldron" that ranked third on the medicine list.
---
Xiao-I's voice responded quickly, and then the air in the room seemed to freeze for a moment. Soon, a transparent screen appeared in front of Gu Yunzhi, displaying a simple interface showcasing a mysterious toolbox. Gu Yunzhi's finger lightly tapped the "open" button on the screen, and their heartbeat involuntarily quickened.
As a dazzling light shot out from the prop box, Gu Yunzhi couldn't help but tightly close her eyes, following the shrinking light.
When she opened her eyes again, she widened them in astonishment. A peculiar flame was slowly rising in the box, composed of two colors, black and white, slowly rotating like a pair of yin-yang fish swimming.
Gu Yunzhi was dazzled by the sight, she had never seen such a mysterious and beautiful flame before.
Before she could ask, Xiao-I's voice sounded in her ear, "Congratulations, master, this is the Yin-Yang Twin Yan ranked twenty-first on the list of exotic fires. It is born in the void of the universe, a very rare and powerful flame."
Gu Yunzhi listened to Xiao-I's explanation, and the shock in her heart became even harder to calm. The name "Yin Yang Double Yan " alone was enough to make people feel shocked, as its existence seemed to contain the mysterious laws of the universe.
This elusive strange fire, she actually managed to draw one, and then it appeared faintly in front of her.
Gu Yunzhi looked at the constantly rolling yin and yang Yan, feeling as if he had glimpsed the mystery of life and death.
Xiao-I continued to explain: "Yin and yang are the manifestation of the laws of nature and the source of all things in the world. The yin and yang Yan is the manifestation of the primal fire, embodying both life and death, possessing an immensely powerful force. Its yang fire has the power of endless regeneration, capable of aiding and healing living beings, while its yin fire has a destructive force, able to eliminate all enemies."
Gu Yunzhi is extremely excited. For her, this kind of flame is undoubtedly an unexpected surprise.
She carefully placed the Yin and Yang Twin Yan into the prop box, and then put the prop box into the storage ring. She deeply felt that this draw had given her a very precious treasure.
With this treasure, requesting the medicine master to refine elixirs, it seems that making five or ten pills is not a problem at all.
At the same time, Xiao Yan sat down at the table, picked up a teacup and took a sip of water. However, what kept floating in his mind was the scene of Gu Yunzhi holding onto his arm earlier. As Gu Yunzhi's autumn-like eyes gently flickered, he felt a warmth growing in his heart.
He shook his head forcefully, cursing himself once again as a sinner in his heart. Perhaps the other party only saw him as a younger brother. Thinking this way, he gradually calmed down those troubling and chaotic thoughts.
He rubbed his sore arms and walked to the corner of the room, filling the large wooden basin with Foundation Essence. Then he quickly took off his clothes, turned over, and jumped in.
The cold liquid slowly soaked into his skin, bringing a cool sensation that dissipated the deep-seated fatigue.
He casually drew on the wooden basin, leaning lazily on its edge, his rapid breathing gradually calming down.
Recalling the shock on the training ground today, Xiao Yan smiled indifferently. Yes, strength is indeed the most important thing in this world!
Without strength, one can only be trampled underfoot, and no one understands the taste of it better than him.
For example, three years ago, his relationship with Xiao Mei was still okay, but since he was labeled as useless, he truly saw how realistic women can be.
He rubbed his forehead, and suddenly, a cold and proud beautiful face appeared in his mind without warning, it was... Nalan Yanran.
The corners of the eyes slightly narrowed, Xiao Yan whispered softly, "Two more years, right? You have to wait for me, I will definitely come find you!"
This gentle murmur, if not for his cold tone, could easily be mistaken for sweet nothings between young lovers.
Remembering the day in the hall when Nalan Yanran displayed a condescending and arrogant demeanor, Xiao Yan's fists involuntarily clenched. The humiliation seemed difficult to dissipate...
He chuckled to himself, thinking: "I can't stop practicing. That woman, despite her arrogance, was accepted as a disciple by the Yunlan Sect Master, her cultivation talent must be extraordinary. In his smile, Xiao Yan's lips revealed a hint of coldness.
Taking a deep breath, whenever he thinks of that woman, he is filled with a courage to move forward.
Xiao Yan cheered up, put away his previous laziness, and positioned his body properly in the wooden basin, assuming a posture for cultivation. His fingers intertwined to form seals, his mind focused, slowly closing his eyes, gradually immersing himself in the world of cultivation.
The cultivation was going smoothly, but suddenly, the surprised voice of medicine master interrupted him: "This aura is..." And this aura immediately disappeared without a trace, making him suspect if he was overthinking.
"Teacher, what's wrong with you?" Xiao Yan stopped the cultivation and came out of the state of cultivation.
Ranked 11th on the list of "Bone Spirit Cold Fire," medicine master possesses a far superior perception of the presence of strange fire nearby than the average person.
However, the sudden disappearance of the strange fire's presence has left medicine master puzzled.
However, he has generally determined the source of that aura. The sensation of disappearance is too similar to the The Purple Abyss Cauldron. He must definitely inquire "her" about it tomorrow morning.
"It's okay, little guy, you continue with your cultivation," Medicine Master said casually.
