Chapter 672: Butterfly Slave (39)

"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.

Chen Kexin: "I don't care. If I can really win Senior Brother Gu's favor, I'm willing to go through some setbacks. I'm just worried that Senior Brother Gu won't like me."

Wen Wan: "You can try, but you'll likely fail."

"My dear sister, you must help me."

Just as Wen Wan was about to speak, she heard Gu Liuyun's words.

"You are not allowed to agree."

Wen Yan: "..."

She almost forgot that she and Gu Liuyun had a pair of love bracelets, so Gu Liuyun must have known what she just said.

"Senior brother, don't you like this senior sister? She's so beautiful and outstanding, aren't you going to give her a chance?"

Gu Liuyun: "I'm not interested in that."

Wen Yan: "..."

Okay.

This male protagonist, destined to be single, should only fall in love with the female protagonist when he meets her, but Wen Wan insists on preventing them from being together.

"There's nothing I can do, but I won't stop you from pursuing my senior brother. As for whether you'll succeed, that depends on whether you can win his heart."

What kind of woman does your senior brother like?

Wen Wan: How did she know?

However, judging from the female lead's appearance, Wen Wan felt that Chen Kexin was likely to fail, since one was like a fairy and the other was like a rose, passionate and charming, which were completely different styles.

"Senior, what kind of girl do you like?"

"No."

Then the connection with Wen Wan was severed.

Wen Yan: "..."

Fine, you've got a temper now.

Then don't blame her. "My senior brother likes gentle women. I think Kexin, if you work hard, you'll definitely succeed."

Chen Kexin: Really?

She was very happy. After all, she had fallen for Gu Liuyun from the first moment she saw him. Only such an outstanding man could make her heart flutter.

...

The secret realm will open in three days, so they can only stay here for a few days and leave when the secret realm opens.

Wen Wan noticed that Chen Kexin had indeed launched an offensive, and she was unusually proactive towards Gu Liuyun.

Wen Wan slipped over to Chen Zi and Shen Li, who then realized what was happening. "Junior Sister, won't Senior Brother be angry if you do this?"

Wen Wan: "What did I do? I didn't do anything, don't frame me."

The two: "..."

Let's do it.

Gu Liuyun clearly rejected Chen Kexin, ending Chen Kexin's crush as soon as it began. Looking at Chen Kexin's heartbroken face, Wen Wan sighed, "Senior brother is truly heartless. To be able to reject such a beauty is truly...heartbreaking!"

Chen Zi: "Isn't this normal? Senior brother cultivates the path of ruthlessness, so naturally he has to sever all emotional attachments."

"The Path of Ruthlessness?"

As expected of a male protagonist, this can only be broken when he meets the female protagonist Z.

Just as Wen Wan was about to say something to Chen Zi and Shen Li, Gu Liuyun glanced at her and said, "The secret realm is about to open. You also need to strengthen your cultivation, otherwise you won't be able to enter the secret realm."

"I'm not that bad, am I?"

"I'll spar with you later to see if you've improved during this time."

Chen Zi and Shen Li envied Wen Wan, but Wen Wan smiled bitterly. What was there to be happy about? The male lead clearly held a grudge against her and was preparing to deal with her.

She couldn't refuse, which was utterly baffling.

Then Shen Li and Chen Zi watched Wen Wan being tortured, and finally couldn't bear it anymore and left. This junior sister was too pitiful, and this senior brother Gu was too cold and heartless.

Wen Wan quickly begged for forgiveness, "Senior brother, I was wrong. I will never do it again. Please forgive me."

"What did you do wrong?"

"From now on, no matter who pursues my senior brother, I will help him resolve the issue and never make things difficult for him."

"This punishment is not over yet."

Wen Yan: "..."

Good heavens! How could the male lead be so petty? She was truly speechless.

After practicing all day, Wen Wan was completely numb and lay limp on the bed, not wanting to move. Chen Kexin had disappeared.

Xin Lai was very angry. "You, Gu Liuyun, have gone too far! Sister, are you alright?"

Wen Wan: "I'm fine. Don't scold him, he can hear you."

Wen Wan removed the love bracelet, knowing that once it was removed, the other person would be unable to know her secrets.

"There's still no news from my brother. Could we be mistaken?"

Wen Wan: "It should be correct."

Wen Wan touched her jade pendant. She really missed her brother. It had been so long, and he hadn't contacted her at all.

"Could they really have forgotten me? Fine, forget me then, who cares anyway, I'm so angry."

Xin Lai: "..."

Wen Wan quickly fell asleep from exhaustion.

Xin Lai transformed into her original form and lay in her sister's arms.

Neither of them noticed that the jade pendant at Wen Wan's waist suddenly emitted a white light, but it vanished in an instant.

The next second, a dark figure suddenly appeared in the room.

Reaching out to touch Wen Wan's face, he knew that if Wen Wan were awake, she would surely realize that the person she had been longing for had appeared. However, Wen Wan had been tortured so badly that she was sleeping like a log.

Xinlai opened his eyes, but quickly closed them again.

"Ah Yuan, wait for me."

...

When Wen Wan woke up the next day, it was already broad daylight.

Chen Kexin didn't come back all night, so she obviously left. After all, she was rejected, and she must have gone somewhere to heal her broken heart. The male lead is really a jerk!

Wen Wan put on the love bracelet, then changed into clean clothes and left the room.

"Senior Brother Shenli, where is Senior Brother Liuyun?"

Shen Li: "Senior Brother Gu and Chen Zi went to investigate the secret realm. They should be back soon. This is the breakfast Senior Brother Gu left for you."

Wen Wan looked at the breakfast on the table. Although she was angry, she couldn't skip breakfast. Sigh, why was she so miserable?

"Junior Sister, you must never make Senior Brother Gu angry again in the future."

Wen Wan: "I know, Senior Brother Liuyun is too petty. I was only trying to help him. He's so old and he's never been in a relationship. That's so sad."

Shen Li: "..."

Senior brother isn't old, is he? The age of a cultivator can't be compared to that of an ordinary person.

"Senior brother is still young, and has cultivated for hundreds or thousands of years. He cannot force matters of the heart. It seems that junior sister wants to find a Daoist partner?"

Wen Yan: "..."

"I guessed right, what kind of girl does Junior Sister like?"

Wen Wan: "It looks good."

Shen Li: "..." As expected of the shallow junior sister, "But you follow Senior Brother Gu around every day, how high must your standards be? Our Senior Brother Gu is the number one handsome man."

"Who selected the most handsome man?"

"There's a list among the common people, and although our Senior Brother Gu rarely goes down the mountain, he firmly holds the top spot on the list of the most handsome men. Not only are countless junior sisters from our Tianli Sect smitten, but junior sisters from many other sects are also smitten."

Wen Wan asked curiously, "Senior brother wears a mask all year round, how can you tell if someone is good-looking or not?"

Shen Li: "Although no one has ever seen what Senior Brother looks like, it is said that the person who once compiled the list of the most handsome men in the world was particularly sensitive to beautiful people. Whenever he saw a good-looking person, he would have a nosebleed. The more handsome the person, the more his nosebleed. When he saw Senior Brother, he had a nosebleed for three whole days, so he was ranked first on the list."

Wen Wan was shocked. "This works?"

"This is outrageous."

"Speaking of which, Junior Sister, you often go to Tianji Peak. You are the person who is closest to Senior Brother. Have you ever seen what Senior Brother looks like?"

Wen Yan: "..."

Gu Liuyun looks just like her brother.

Those were all top-tier handsome men, but Wen Wan had never seen Gu Liuyun's appearance before, since he never took off that mask, even when he was sleeping.

She even knew what the other person looked like, so even when they switched places, she didn't impulsively try to remove her senior's mask.

"Of course I haven't seen him, but my senior brother must be an absolute beauty. Otherwise, someone who had a nosebleed for three days would surely die of blood loss if they saw his true face."

Shen Li: "..."

Gu Liuyun and Chen Zi returned quickly, having obtained most of the necessary information.

This secret realm was left behind by a holy lord after his passing, which is why it has attracted countless people.

There were a huge number of people this time, but this secret realm was protected by a barrier. Only those below the Heavenly King stage could enter, and those above the Martial God stage could not enter.

Therefore, the major sects sent their top disciples to compete, while the demon and monster races also dispatched their most elite subordinates to participate in the secret realm.

The competition is fierce, and the risk factor is exceptionally high.

Soon it was time for the secret realm to open, and the four of them, like everyone else, entered the secret realm after it opened.

Gu Liuyun: "Stay close to me, and never take off what you're holding, no matter what."

Wen Wan: "Don't worry, senior brother, this is my fate."

After all, as a mere early-stage Spirit King, I'm in real danger here.

After entering the secret realm, apart from Wen Wan and Gu Liuyun, Shen Li and Senior Brother Chen Zi were nowhere to be found.

Gu Liuyun: "This must have been a random separation of us. Because we have a bond of mutual understanding, we were put in the same place."

Wen Wan breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank goodness, senior brother, you must protect me." Wen Wan grabbed Gu Liuyun's clothes, and the two walked through the long corridor and finally arrived at a closed space.

And most importantly, there was another person in front of him.

Upon closer inspection, they were found to be skeletons. Startled, Wen Wan gripped Gu Liuyun's arm tightly. "Are those the remains of the Holy Lord?"

Gu Liuyun stepped forward to examine the body. “Not dead. This deceased should be a Martial God, not a Saint Lord.”

As Gu Liuyun approached, the skeleton suddenly moved.

They swiftly attacked the two of them. Gu Liuyun drew his sword to fight back, while Wen Wan also summoned the Frost Flowing Sword.

Then he joined forces with Gu Liuyun to fight against the enemy.

Although she was not as good as Gu Liuyun, she was not really weak either. Her top-notch swordsmanship, combined with the Frost Flowing Sword, was somewhat helpful to Gu Liuyun.

However, the opponent was, after all, a Martial God, and the closest to the peak of the Martial God realm, even though he had passed away. He was still roughly at the early stage of the Martial God realm.

The two of them really couldn't beat each other.

Gu Liuyun: "Qingyin Bell".

Wen Wan took a step back and quickly took out the Floating Pagoda Clear Sound Bell. After being attacked by the Clear Sound Bell, the white bones slowed down and retreated, obviously afraid of the sound of the bell. Gu Liuyun quickly gained the upper hand in one go and shattered the white bones with his last sword. The soul of that martial god also dissipated in the air and transformed into an old man in the next second.
