At this moment, Zhao Wuji suddenly floated in mid-air and asked, "Young man Shen, where did you get this Marrow Cleansing Pill?"

Shen Lang glanced at him and said, "It's planted in the garden, do you want it?"

Zhao Wuji scoffed, "Tch! What good stuff haven't I seen? My friend, Yao Xuan, the number one alchemist in the Xuan Tian Realm and a quasi-emperor, can conjure a river of pills with a flick of his wrist. A mere Marrow Cleansing Pill isn't even worthy of being given to me as candy."

"Oh? Really?" Shen Lang asked, feigning surprise. "Then why didn't your wife want you anymore?"

"Kid, don't hit someone in the face, don't expose someone's shortcomings." Zhao Wuji's old face suddenly turned red, and he said indignantly.

"Your wife ran off with someone else." Shen Lang picked at his ear.

"You brat Shen, how dare you insult me ​​like this! I'll never forgive you!" Zhao Wuji was furious, as if Shen Lang had ripped out his most sensitive spot.

"Oh." Shen Lang said indifferently, then raised his middle finger at Zhao Wuji's soul and said in an even more disdainful tone, "Come on, come on, try to touch a single finger of yours, Master Shen? Master Shen can make you your grandson with a blink of an eye."

Seeing Shen Lang's shameless behavior, Zhao Wuji was furious. He glared at Shen Lang, but there was nothing he could do about this scoundrel.

Even if he were to regain his physical body, let alone be a soul now, he would still be nothing more than a mortal being.

Cultivators in the Xuan Tian Realm focus on techniques and supernatural abilities. In this world where spiritual energy is depleted, even if Zhao Wuji recovers his physical body, his abilities will be very limited.

"Forget it, I won't bother with a junior like you." Seeing that he had no good way to deal with Shen Lang, Zhao Wuji returned to the Ghost Ring on his own.

"Beep! Master, a red-talented trader has been detected!"

Suddenly, the little sprite flew out.

"A red-talented trader?" Shen Lang hurriedly pulled up the trader information.

Client: Gu Beisheng

Identity: McDonald's part-time employee (Awakening of the Chosen One)

Inner desire: To cure his younger sister Gu Nanyi's paralyzed legs and take her away from the slum.

Synopsis: Gu Beisheng, 19 years old. He and his younger sister Gu Nanyi are orphans. When Gu Beisheng was five years old, an accident occurred at his father's construction site, resulting in Gu Beisheng and his sister Gu Nanyi becoming a single-parent family.

After the father's accident, the construction site paid the Gu family 100,000 yuan in compensation to cover up the safety incident. After receiving this money, Gu Beisheng's mother abandoned her two children and chose to run away.

After that, Gu Beisheng and his sister became orphans, unwanted by their aunt and uncle.

The rope breaks at its thinnest point.

When Gu Beisheng was in junior high school, his younger sister, Gu Nanyi, was left alone at home and had both legs broken by a falling object, leaving her disabled. Left with no other choice, Gu Beisheng gave up his studies to stay home and care for his sister.

Seven years have passed in the blink of an eye, and Gu Beisheng has never abandoned his younger sister, Gu Nanyi. Gu Nanyi has become Gu Beisheng's only hope for survival.

After reading Gu Beisheng's information, Shen Lang asked the little elf a question: "How do we awaken his identity as a chosen one?"

The little elf said, "Master, I don't know either."

Shen Lang stared at the McDonald's entrance not far away and fell into deep thought.

It would be a lie to say he wasn't envious of this "Chosen One" status, but according to the system's introduction, this "Chosen One" status was limited to the Blue Star world; once he left this world, the "Chosen One" status would become invalid.

Moreover, Shen Lang was not interested in Gu Beisheng at this time, but in his younger sister Gu Nanyi.

Inside the McDonald's restaurant, Gu Beisheng finished his work for the day.

"Foreman, it's time to settle the wages, isn't it?" Gu Beisheng said with a smile to the boy in front of him who wasn't much older than him.

The restaurant supervisor nodded and replied, "Xiao Bei, it's not sustainable for you to be doing part-time work every day! Besides, you're very capable, and the manager thinks highly of you. Were you interested in his suggestion of making you a full-time employee last time?"

Gu Beisheng smiled and shook his head, saying, "Thank you for your high regard, manager and foreman, but as you know, my family situation is such that my sister can't be left alone, so let's forget about making her a permanent employee."

"Sigh." The restaurant manager looked at Gu Beisheng with sympathy and said, "Xiao Bei, if you have any difficulties, just tell me anytime."

Gu Beisheng nodded gratefully and said, "Thank you, supervisor."

Then the restaurant manager used a small calculator for a while and settled Gu Beisheng's part-time wages for a week.

Seeing the amount received in his Alipay account, Gu Beisheng breathed a sigh of relief.

He has lived like this for years because of his younger sister, Gu Nanyi. He cannot find a normal job and can only do part-time jobs to support the two siblings with his meager income.

However, the younger sister's leg condition is getting worse, and the doctor said that if it is not treated in time, amputation may be the only option for her.

With a heavy heart, Gu Beisheng left the McDonald's restaurant.

As he reached the door, he saw a man in a white robe with long hair leaning against the front of a sports car he had never seen before, waving in his direction.

Gu Beisheng first looked around to make sure there was no one else around before he realized that the long-haired man was waving at him.

He walked over with curiosity.

"Hello, are you calling me?" Gu Beisheng asked uncertainly.

He knew very few people, so he was quite certain that the incredibly handsome long-haired man in front of him had never crossed paths with him before.

After finishing his ice cream, Shen Lang accurately threw the box into the roadside trash can.

He took the tissue Dongxue handed him and wiped his mouth, then took out a pack of unbranded cigarettes from his pocket and handed one to Gu Beisheng.

"Do you smoke?" Shen Lang asked.

Gu Beisheng waved his hand and shook his head: "Sorry, I don't smoke."

Shen Lang nodded, then lit a cigarette for himself.

After exhaling a puff of smoke, he slowly said, "Let me introduce myself. My name is Shen Lang."

Gu Beisheng nodded blankly and said, "My name is Gu Beisheng. What do you need me for?"

Shen Lang grinned, revealing a set of clean, even teeth in the sunlight, and said, "It's nothing, I just wanted to ask if you need any money. I have so much money that it's practically overflowing, so if you do, I'll sell you some."

"???" Several big question marks instantly appeared above Gu Beisheng's head: "You said you're going to sell it to me for money?"

Shen Lang nodded.

At this moment, Gu Beisheng just wanted to ask if this person was crazy. The word "selling for money" was something he had never heard of before. However, looking at Shen Lang's clothes and the winter snow behind him, he dismissed the idea.

Shen Lang's words also made him wary.

Having grown up at the very bottom of society, he naturally understood one principle: there's no such thing as a free lunch. This stranger who suddenly appeared wouldn't help him for no reason.
