Lin Zhi-xin's figure shuttles through the dense forest, moving at a speed as fast as a stream of light.
In the distance, Utan City gradually comes into view, and her heart begins to race. This time, she must find Xiao Yan, affecting the main mission, and she cannot separate from Yu Yun until it is confirmed that they can no longer be apart.
The sun in the sky gradually leans westward, casting golden sunlight on Lin Zhi-xin, leaving behind a long shadow.
Behind her, a series of tree shadows quickly recede with her speed, as if time is accelerating at this moment.
" Xiao-I, do you think medicine master can detect this puppet at the level of a fighting king?" Lin Zhi-xin suddenly thought of this question and couldn't help but ask.
"Master, medicine master can detect it," Xiao-I's answer made Lin Zhi-xin feel a little uneasy.
"What? I've already come all the way here and you're telling me this now? What do we do?" Lin Zhi-xin was feeling a bit frustrated.
"Don't worry, Master, Xiao-I has a solution." Xiao-I's calmness brought her some comfort.
Lin Zhi-xin arrived in Utan City, now dressed in a black robe, with his face hidden beneath the hood to avoid drawing attention.
Following Xiao-I's suggestion, she went to the Mittal family's marketplace, hoping to find the rare Ice worm noodle wrapper.
Entering the bustling auction house, she felt the noise and excitement around her, but her heart remained as calm as ice. Upon learning that there was indeed news of the Ice worm noodle wrapper,
Lin Zhi-xin did not hesitate to purchase it at a high price of 350,000. For her, time is far more important than money, and fortunately, the inventory of Yunyun is abundant, hehe.
When the Mittal family handed over the Ice worm noodle wrapper to her and also gave her a five-stripe purple gold card as a membership privilege.
Xiao-I is explaining the preciousness and uses of the Ice worm noodle wrapper in my ear.
"This is made from the ice worm silk spit out by the ice worm on the iceberg. It is carefully crafted by skilled craftsmen. A human face shape has been outlined on this thin noodle wrapper. As long as it is covered on the face, it can conceal the previous appearance."
"Will this be enough to conceal the fact that my body is a puppet?" Despite having received an explanation from Xiao-I, Lin Zhi-xin still felt uneasy.
Xiao-I replied, "Yes. Due to the nature of the Ice worm noodle wrapper, once Medicine Master detects that you have used it to disguise your identity, he will naturally assume that you are human and have employed a disguise."
Then continue to explain: "Usually, no one would put this kind of noodle wrapper on the outside of a puppet. As for the other parts of you, I have already used other animal skins to cover them as human skin. But for the human face, due to its delicate structure, animal skin is not suitable. Only the finer 'Ice worm noodle wrapper' can achieve the ideal disguise effect and pass inspection."
Xiao-I's explanation made Lin Zhi-xin feel slightly relieved. At this moment, she had transformed into Gu Yunzhi and quickly walked towards the cliff where Xiao Yan often went.
She remembered that Xiao Yan always liked to stand on the cliff, leisurely holding a bamboo leaf in his mouth. Thinking of this, Gu Yunzhi unconsciously quickened her pace.
When she arrived at the cliff, she saw Xiao Yan standing on the edge, a lonely and resolute figure gazing at the distant sky, as if searching for an unattainable dream.
Transformed into Lin Zhi-xin, Gu Yunzhi stood quietly behind him.
"Is it you, Xun'er?" Xiao Yan asked with his back to her.
Upon hearing the name, Gu Yunzhi couldn't help but feel a little disappointed that it wasn't calling her. Although she was not Yu Yun, the irony of fate had their souls merging together.
Therefore, even though Yu Yun couldn't come in person, through the resonance of their souls, their way of thinking, tone, and even their gaze would become more and more similar, gradually becoming each other's shadow.
Xiao Yan saw no response from the person he was looking at, so he turned around. When he saw Gu Yunzhi, his face first showed a moment of surprise, followed by a flash of joy, clearly recognizing her.
He quickly walked towards Gu Yunzhi with a sincere expression of gratitude on his face: "Thank you, Miss Gu, for your timely help. Those ten scatter qi saved my father Xiao Zhan's reputation recently, and nearby businesses have not cut ties with us."
Gu Yunzhi, also known as Lin Zhi-xin, showed a faint smile on her face. She knew that Xiao Yan didn't know her true identity, but his gratitude was sincere, which made her feel a hint of warmth.
"Young Master Xiao, you're too kind. Being able to help you is a great honor for Gu Yunzhi," she answered respectfully, her voice tinged with a faint joy.
Xiao Yan's eyes flashed with a hint of radiance, and he confidently said, "Now that I have regained my cultivation ability, I am confident that I can defeat Nalan Yanran in the battle three years from now. I no longer need the help of Yunlan Sect's sect leader Yu Yun."
Lin Zhi-xin understood in her heart that it must have been the medicine master who helped Xiao Yan recover. She smiled and blessed, "Alright, I believe Young Master Xiao can do it. The agreed battle three years from now will surely be victorious."
Xiao Yan I don't know what's on her mind, but he still confidently said, "Miss Gu, if you have time, why not come to my The Xiao Family as a guest? My father has always wanted to thank you."
As soon as he finished speaking, the five-lined purple gold card on Gu Yunzhi's body accidentally slipped from his sleeve and fell to the ground.
Xiao Yan quickly bent down and picked it up. It was a five-stripe purple gold card that only Dou Ling powerhouses could apply for, which made his eyes light up. Suddenly, he remembered Gu Yunzhi's generous sponsorship before.
This gave him an idea. Although he hesitated for a moment, he finally gathered the courage to speak up: "Miss Gu, I urgently need some funds to purchase training resources. Could you lend me some gold coins? I will repay you as soon as I have the money."
He has recently been taught by medicine master and happened to be considering how to purchase some resources to improve his cultivation level. This card is obviously a good solution to his financial problem.
Gu Yunzhi looked at him with sincere eyes, smiled slightly, and nodded: "No problem, Young Master Xiao, I hope it will be helpful to you."
Xiao Yan revealed a satisfied smile, took the five-stripe purple gold card, and felt grateful in his heart: "Thank you, Miss Gu, I will remember your help." He bowed deeply to Gu Yunzhi once again and turned away. Meanwhile, Gu Yunzhi watched his departing figure with some emotion in her heart.
However, not far away, a woman hidden in the shadows was watching this scene intently. A hint of complex emotions flashed in her eyes, perhaps envy, perhaps jealousy, and even some unwillingness. The woman silently turned and disappeared into the crowd.
At the moment when Xiao Yan was leaving, a clear voice suddenly sounded in Gu Yunzhi's heart: "Ding dong, successfully completed the side mission of enhancing the relationship between Xiao Xun'er and Xiao Yan, rewarded with 50,000 coins, 20,000 experience points, and a chance to draw a prize."
Following that, another voice echoed in his mind: "Ding dong, successfully advanced to Three Star Battle Emperor, special reward of an item box."
"How did leveling up suddenly become so simple?" Gu Yunzhi couldn't help but express his doubts.
"No way, that's just the setting of the game world," Xiao I Robot suddenly appeared and explained.
Gu Yunzhi smiled with partial understanding and curiosity, asking, " Xiao-I, what's inside this prop box?"
"Open it and you'll find out, won't you?" Xiao I Robot retorted.
Gu Yunzhi casually opened the prop box, and a flash of light revealed a peculiarly shaped prop gradually appearing before her eyes.
She had expected it to be a powerful piece of equipment, but then she realized, wait, is this a cauldron?
"Congratulations, master, this is The Purple Abyss Cauldron. It was originally a strange purple stone, and after being nourished by the essence of the sun and moon for thousands of years, it has transformed into this cauldron," explained Xiao I Robot.
Xiao I Robot continued, "Don't underestimate it. This cauldron ranks third on the list of medicinal cauldrons. Although there is very little related information, it is a mysterious and unpredictable cauldron with no usage restrictions. For example, the sixth-ranked Phoenix cry tripod can only be used by those who possess the Phoenix Holy Flame inheritance, but this The Purple Abyss Cauldron has no usage restrictions and is very suitable for the current owner to use."
