Chapter 671: Butterfly Slave (38)
Soon, Wen Wan received another mission. What was most unusual about this mission was that it wasn't hers, but the male lead's. Wen Wan was genuinely surprised. Why did the sect leader suddenly agree to let the male lead leave to do the mission? Feeling that he wasn't up to any good, Wen Wan begged to go with him. Gu Liuyun couldn't resist her pleading, so he took her along, and the sect leader turned a blind eye.
Accompanying Gu Liuyun was Senior Brother Shen Li from Qian Yue Peak, a top-tier member of the team.
There's also Senior Brother Chen Zi from Lotus Peak, a fourth-grade array master, who can be described as exceptionally talented.
A mission that requires this kind of deployment is naturally not a simple one.
Their target is Xuanfeng City.
“A secret realm has appeared outside Xuanfeng City. Our goal is to enter the secret realm and find out what's inside. This time, it's not just our Tianli Sect that knows about it; several other major sects have also heard about it, and many other sects have sent people. The Demon Realm and the Monster Realm will also be involved,” Gu Liuyun said.
Then the four of them began to go through the teleportation array. There was a direct teleportation array, so there was no need to go around. Xin Lai also went with Wen Wan. Gu Liuyun had no objection, but Wen Wan suspected that Gu Liuyun had actually discovered Xin Lai's identity as a demon beast, but did not refuse.
This surprised Wen Wan somewhat.
After three days, the four of them arrived in Xuanfeng City, which was much larger and more bustling than the Medicine City that Wen Wan had visited last time.
Chen Zi: "Senior Brother Gu, let's find an inn to rest first, and then inquire about some information."
Gu Liuyun: "Mm."
Chen Zi then went to book an inn, but the group visited three inns in a row, and all of them were fully booked.
Chen Zi: "Once the news of this secret realm spreads, countless people will definitely come to Xuanfeng City. All the inns are fully booked. Let's check other places."
After searching five or six places, we finally found a guesthouse with available rooms.
"We only have one premium room and one regular room left at our inn. Would you like to book them?"
Chen Zi: "Subscribed."
Pay quickly, after all, these are the only two rooms available, otherwise they will have to sleep on the streets. It doesn't matter for them, but there is a junior sister here. How can we let the junior sister sleep on the streets?
Get the house number
At this moment, countless people came to inquire about room availability. Chen Zi was somewhat relieved that she had managed to grab a room quickly; otherwise, if she had been any slower, the room would have been gone.
"Senior Brother Gu, Senior Brother Shen, Junior Sister Wen, there are only two rooms in total. How should we allocate them?"
This presented a dilemma.
Wen Wan is a girl, so she should have her own room. It wouldn't be right for her to share a room with them. But there are still three people left, and it seems a bit unfair for the three of them to share a room.
Just as they were agonizing over room assignments, a girl sitting at one of the seats suddenly spoke up, "You must be disciples of the Tianli Sect, right? We are disciples of the Xuanwu Sect. I happen to be staying alone, so this young lady can share a room with me, so she'll have some company."
Wen Wan looked at the other person, who was a very pretty girl. Although the girl was speaking to her, her eyes were on Gu Liuyun.
Sure enough, her true intentions weren't what they seemed; she was clearly eyeing her own senior brother.
But... as long as it's a place to live, it's fine.
"Thank you, sister. I'm willing to pay half of the room fee."
"No need, it won't cost much."
Gu Liuyun and the other two did not object, after all, this solved the problem. The last superior room was given to Gu Liuyun, and Chen Zi and Shen Li shared an ordinary room.
Wen Wan and her three senior brothers sat down at the Xuanwu Gate.
"My name is Chen Kexin. This is my senior brother Ouyang Fen, my senior brother Qin Tianzhu, and Liu Qiang."
Wen Wan: "Hello, Sister Kexin. My name is Wen Wan. This is my senior brother Gu Liuyun, Chen Zi, and Shen Li."
"So it's Senior Brother Liuyun! Senior Brother Liuyun's reputation is legendary," Chen Kexin said with a smile.
However, although Gu Liuyun was not aloof, he did not strike up a conversation, which clearly indicated that they were not familiar with each other.
Wen Wan also ordered a table full of dishes from the innkeeper, as she was indeed very hungry. Looking at the group from Xuanwu Gate, who seemed to have just arrived and hadn't started ordering, she said, "Sister Kexin, is there anything you'd like to eat? We'll treat you this time, consider it a favor for letting us stay here."
"Whatever you like, Sister Wen."
Wen Wan then asked the others for their opinions and went to order food. In fact, they ordered very little, since Chen Zi and Shen Li refused to eat and were practicing some kind of fasting. Wen Wan was quite impressed.
Wen Wan didn't ask Gu Liuyun, since Gu Liuyun didn't practice fasting anyway.
Wen Wan ordered several of her favorite dishes, as well as a pot of fine peach blossom wine.
She quickly became familiar with the other person after just a few words, and Wen Wan's social skills improved once again.
However, Chen Kexin was very interested in Gu Liuyun.
"Is Senior Brother Liuyun also going to the secret realm this time?"
Gu Liuyun: "Mm."
“Then we can go together! We’re also going to the secret realm, so it’s just a coincidence that we’re traveling together.”
Gu Liuyun thought for a moment, then looked at Chen Zi, who immediately said, "Yes, of course, I couldn't be happier."
Soon the food was served, and Wen Wan poured wine for everyone. She took a sip and said, "It's delicious. Senior brother, you should try it."
"Senior Brother Gu doesn't drink..." Before Chen Zi could finish speaking, he saw that Senior Brother Gu, who never drank alcohol, actually took a sip.
Chen Zi: "..."
Could it be that Senior Brother Gu has already started drinking?
Wen Wan: "Is it good?"
Gu Liuyun: "I must not overindulge in wine; this is the only cup I can have."
Wen Yan: "..."
Alright, anyway, she's only so-so about alcohol and not very enthusiastic about it. Soon, Wen Wan started to immerse herself in the meal, while Gu Liuyun naturally served Wen Wan food. Chen Zi and Shen Li on the side almost popped their eyes out.
The last time they went out with their senior brother, he never ate these things, and although he wasn't indifferent, he would never do something like serving food to others.
No wonder she brought her junior sister Wen Wan along this time; it turns out the two of them have a really good relationship. Chen Kexin looked at the two of them with a complicated expression, seemingly realizing something and feeling somewhat disappointed.
"Senior Brother Gu and Sister Wen have a really good relationship."
Wen Yan: "???"
Never mind, let's keep eating.
Xinlai gave up after a few bites because the dish was too inedible, but seeing how much her sister enjoyed it, she knew she must not have eaten well at Tianli Sect, which was really pitiful.
That evening, Wen Wan and Chen Kexin shared a room.
Chen Kexin then asked, "Sister Wen, are you and Senior Brother Gu lovers?"
Wen Wan nearly choked on her tea. "What?"
"You must have misunderstood something. We are just senior and junior brothers, not what you think."
"Really?"
"Um."
Chen Kexin breathed a sigh of relief. "You scared me to death. I thought you two were in that kind of relationship. If that's the case, then I can pursue Senior Brother Gu."
"You like Senior Brother?" Although Wen Wan had expected it, she was still shocked to hear it from the other person's mouth.
But that's... normal. Gu Liuyun is so good-looking, no one could resist her, and she's so capable too. She's got advantages in every way, so it's perfectly normal for someone to like her.
"Do you think Senior Brother Gu will like me?" Chen Kexin asked.
Wen Wan looked at Chen Kexin and had to admit that Chen Kexin was stunningly beautiful, like a rosebud about to bloom. She had a beautiful face and a great figure, with a curvaceous body that could be described as a devilish figure.
"I don't know, but I don't recommend it. You don't know how closely the sect leader watches over your senior brother. He absolutely won't allow him to like other women. You'd better give up, otherwise you might get hurt later." Wen Wan was telling the truth. After all, the sect leader wouldn't even let Gu Liuyun leave Tianji Peak, let alone let him like someone else. This would probably mean breaking up the couple, and it would be a top-level expert doing so.
