Gu Yuan was already a sixth-level spirit master. Feeling the rich spiritual energy in his body, he couldn't help but feel a sense of joy. He had finally made a breakthrough.

"It's so hot, what a horrible weather, oh." Gu Yuan kept lamenting.

Looking at Gu Ting's graceful figure, he suppressed his dissatisfaction and walked over with a smile.

"Hello, Miss." He greeted her. But Miss Gu didn't even turn her head back, as if she hadn't heard him.

Seeing this, the housekeeper scolded, "Where did this bastard come from? He's so shameless and shameless that he comes to chat with me. No..."

Before she could finish, Gu Ting waved her hand to stop her, "Forget it, forget it, don't bother with him. There are many people like him in Gumo City. Sigh..."

Although this was the first time Gu Yuan had been looked down upon like this, why did it feel so good? Could it be that he was just playing dumb? He thought to himself as he followed Gu Ting, laughing.

The journey was silent. Although there were some frictions along the way, Gu Yuan's natural personality made him enjoy it and he arrived at his destination before sunset.

"Gu Ting? Long time no see." As he was speaking, a purple-haired boy came in. It was said that Tingting had grown so big in the past few years. The boy had a strong build and his arms were even more amazing. He looked like a butcher killing pigs, but his fair face made him look like an aristocrat who walked out of an oil painting.

Ye Hua, born into the royal family of Valoran, was the eldest son of his father, Emperor Ye Gangdan. He was a gifted scholar and warrior from a young age, particularly his qin playing, which captivated countless young Valoran girls. The Gu and Ye families had been friendly for generations, so the two were groomed as potential matchmakers for a potential marriage, becoming childhood sweethearts. However, Gu Ting never had much of a fondness for him.

"What are you doing here? Is it your father, the Steel Egg Emperor, who sent you to propose marriage again?" Gu Ting said unhappily.

No, no, how could I dare? I just heard a rumor that you came to such a dangerous place, so I came to see you because I was worried. By the way, why did Miss Gu come to this remote place?

"What do you care!" He left without a further explanation, leaving Prince Ye disheveled in the wind. The housekeeper couldn't stand it any longer, so he secretly dragged Ye Hua to the toilet and squatted there, whispering, "Hey, it's all about picking that Tianshan Snow Lotus." What? Ye Hua exclaimed. Picking snow lotus in the desert? Did I hear correctly? "According to reliable sources, this desert can reach 50 degrees Celsius during the day, but it's incredibly cold at night, reaching -60 degrees Celsius. The snow lotus appears at midnight, only once every ten years, in six days." "I see. If we can get this snow lotus, our Great Ye Kingdom will have a powerful weapon," Ye Hua thought to himself. "I'll do you a favor," Ye Hua said with a cheerful smile.

Looking at the sunset in the distance, Ye Hua sighed. There was nothing he could do. Once he was hooked, it would be a lifelong thing. He could only help. By then, Gu Ting would probably change her mind about him.

The next morning, the housekeeper banged drums and gongs to wake up the four guards, the two hired men, and Ye Hua, a total of nine people. They set off in a mighty procession.

On the way, Ye Hua observed the group and noticed their spiritual energy was quite weak. He roughly estimated that there were six spiritualists, around level seven, which was considered quite good for a typical mercenary group. The housekeeper was probably at level two, still a bit behind Ye Hua's level four, so Ye Hua didn't take him seriously. Then there was the familiar Miss Gu Ting, who was carrying the Gu family's heirloom White Tiger Dagger, so her spiritual energy was masked and undetectable. However, he still had a rough estimate: level three spiritualists at best. There was only one person Ye Hua cared about: an unremarkable young man who followed the group silently, often muttering to himself. He looked like the kind of character who would be a failure after three episodes in a TV series. As a spiritualist, he couldn't quite figure this person out. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, interesting.

"Hey! Boy over there, help me get a pot of water from the underground well over there." Miss Gu shouted contemptuously.

"Miss, where's the underground well in this wilderness?" Zhang Xi from the team said. "Haha, you don't know that," the housekeeper laughed. "Our young lady's spiritual skills are all water-attributed. Not only can she create a well, she can even create a lake for you."

"Did you hear me? Get out of my way!" A blue halo flashed around Gu Ting's finger, and a particle jumped like a covalent electron pair, and soon turned into blue light bands, surrounding everyone. Following Gu Ting's finger's direction, the blue light bands floated over, jumped down in the dry place, and formed a well in the blink of an eye.

Not to mention the others, even the usually knowledgeable Ye Hua was stunned. This kind of skill was difficult for even his father's personal guards to achieve. This little girl had grown to this point after not seeing her for a few years. Gu Ting seemed to have been waiting for this moment, waiting to be praised with a proud look on her face.

"Hey, this is a thankless task!" Gu Yuan said calmly, as if it were just a casual observation of his own hens placing orders. "You can certainly create a well with a water bomb, but it will dry up in no time, understand?" Gu Yuan said with disdain.

Needless to say, Gu Ting was so angry that her face turned pale, and her originally fair skin looked like it was frosted. She was also ashamed of being pointed at by a servant.

"You...you! Say that again?" Gu Ting yelled at the top of her lungs. "It's over, it's over! This is the beginning of the tigress's rage." Ye Hua, who had known him since childhood, silently mourned for this little brother for a minute.

"Am I talking nonsense? Miss Gu, just look at this. The well that was seven meters deep just now has been evaporated by the sun to only five meters when you screamed. How dare you come to this Death Desert without any geographical knowledge? You should know that no less than ten thousand people have died in this desert, and the skeletons piled up can be as high as several people." Gu Yuan pointed to the well that was emitting blue light as if nothing had happened.

As he said, the well was disappearing at a visible rate, steam rising from it like a boiling pot. Like a ferocious beast thirsty for thousands of years, the desert devoured all water sources, including this one.

"Ah! My Water Dragon Bullet." Unable to get angry with Gu Yuan, Gu Ting was horrified by the horrifying sight before her. "What should I do? I almost used up all my spiritual power just trying to show off," Gu Ting lamented.

A beam of light descended from the sky and stopped on Gu Yuan. Gu Ting looked up at the end of the light, a little glaring that she couldn't open her eyes. Is this the light of the savior? Gu Ting wondered.
