"Then it's settled. After we bring Bai Ying back, you must keep your promise and give me Bai Ying's spiritual root and golden core. You're not allowed to feel sorry for her."
Ruan Xinrou felt a little anxious. She always felt that Xiao Yu's attitude towards Bai Ying was different from what she had imagined.
Unlike before, when Xiao Yu teased Bai Ying, he would always come back and mock Bai Ying. Now, he seems to care about Bai Ying a lot.
Ruan Xinrou's luck value is now very low. She is disliked by many people, and even her fellow disciples are unwilling to talk to her anymore. They are all sighing and wanting Bai Ying to go back.
If this continues, her mission will fail!
So now she can't wait to take everything from Bai Ying.
Luck is too elusive and too difficult to snatch; it's better to just extract her spiritual root and golden core and put them into my own body!
As Ruan Xinrou spoke, she stared intently at Xiao Yu, "Senior Brother Xiao! You would do this, wouldn't you?"
Xiao Yu smiled and nodded, saying, "Don't worry. I will definitely bring her back to Huayang Sect."
Ruan Xinrou finally felt relieved. She immediately threw herself into Xiao Yu's arms, "I knew it, Senior Brother Xiao, you're the best."
Then Ruan Xinrou added, "Let's fight the monsters together."
Previously, Xiao Yu liked to take Ruan Xinrou out to hunt monsters, as it was their way of spending time alone together.
Now that they are in the woods, Ruan Xinrou wants to deepen her relationship with Xiao Yu.
“Okay!” Xiao Yu readily agreed.
However, when Ruan Xinrou instinctively hid behind Xiao Yu upon seeing the monster, Xiao Yu was somewhat taken aback.
He had always faced the danger alone when he killed these monsters, and he had become accustomed to this style of combat. He was in front, and Ruan Xinrou was behind.
However, at this moment, Bai Ying's image suddenly flashed in his mind. Just now, when he was in danger, Bai Ying stood in front of him and absorbed all the firepower for him.
She radiated light like a goddess, and even now, knowing he was with Ruan Xinrou, Bai Ying's image still lingered in his mind...
Thinking of Bai Ying, Xiao Yu felt a ripple in her heart.
After finally managing to kill the thunder wolf in front of them, Ruan Xinrou excitedly rushed over and shouted to Xiao Yu, "Senior Brother Xiao, you're amazing!"
Xiao Yu also curled up the corners of her mouth, trying her best to appear happy, but for some reason, she felt nothing at all.
In the past, he would have been very proud to be praised like this by his loved one.
But he had just fought the Azure Dragon. Compared to that terrifying behemoth, this Thunder Wolf was nothing.
Killing something as dangerous and terrifying as that gives him excitement. Killing these little things only leaves him feeling bored.
"Let's go back."
Xiao Yu said to Ruan Xinrou.
Ruan Xinrou was taken aback. "Going back so early?"
Xiao Yu used to really enjoy slaying monsters with her, and he was always reluctant to go back after they went out together.
Xiao Yu said, "Killing these after killing the Azure Dragon is really pointless. You have no idea how dangerous it was when we killed that Azure Dragon. Its dragon aura was so powerful that I almost fell victim to it. Luckily, Bai Ying came in time and stood in front of me."
Xiao Yu spoke eloquently, and when he mentioned Bai Ying, his eyes revealed a burning intensity that he had never shown before.
"I really didn't know Bai Ying was this powerful. She's so strong! So this is what it feels like to be in the late stage of the Golden Core realm."
Ruan Xinrou's expression instantly turned somewhat unpleasant. "Senior Brother Xiao, why do you keep mentioning Bai Ying?"
Xiao Yu herself only then realized what was happening and explained, "I didn't mean to mention her. I just think that the late stage of the Golden Core realm is very powerful. If I gave you her Golden Core, you would be just as powerful as she is now."
Ruan Xinrou then smiled and said, "Then, Senior Brother Xiao, you should quickly bring Bai Ying back to the sect and have her hand over the Spirit Herb Garden to you on her own initiative."
"good!"
Ruan Xinrou thought that Xiao Yu was eager to dig out Bai Ying's golden core.
But Xiao Yu thought to himself, "Great! I can see Bai Ying again."
—
The day after Bai Ying returned home, she saw that Xiao Yu had sent her another letter.
This time, he invited Bai Ying to go and deal with an Abyss Tiger.
The Heaven-Mending Herb guarded by the Abyss Tiger is a rare herb that even Bai Ying's spirit herb garden doesn't have. It's also an excellent herb for breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage.
Bai Ying picked up her sword, ready to go out, but was stopped by Wang Miaomiao again.
"Junior Sister Bai, you're not going to meet Xiao Yu again, are you? I have something to show you."
As she spoke, Wang Miaomiao took out a Qiankun Mirror and projected its contents in front of Bai Ying.
This is a conversation between Ruan Xinrou and Xiao Yu about wanting to remove Bai Ying's golden core, recorded by the Qiankun Mirror that Wang Miaomiao placed there.
"I knew something was off about Xiao Yu, so I secretly kept the Qiankun Mirror! Sure enough, I found it. Now you know he's got a problem, right? I never imagined she could be so vicious!"
Wang Miaomiao had already prepared words of comfort for Bai Ying, thinking that Bai Ying would be very sad.
Unexpectedly, Bai Ying not only wasn't sad or upset, but also sneered.
Wang Miaomiao then realized: "You knew all along! You like him, don't you? You only went to meet him to get revenge!"
Bai Ying nodded.
Wang Miaomiao breathed a sigh of relief: "So, the reason you made such a scene at that birthday banquet in your bright red wedding dress was also because of them, right? I knew you weren't that kind of person!"
