Chapter 18 Chapter 18 The night is still long.
He actually brought a famous aphrodisiac elixir as a meeting gift.
Gu Jingyun was speechless for a moment. You people in the Hehuan Sect are really open-minded.
He persuaded Jiang Yan with a strong opposition attitude.
The reason is that the efficacy of the Hehuan Pill is very strong and cannot be studied by one person. If something goes wrong, it will be very dangerous.
Of course, you cannot study with others.
"Why?" Jiang Yan asked.
There was silence for a long time at the other end of the note transmission. After a while, a man's cold voice was heard.
"…If someone touches you, I'm afraid I won't be able to help but kill him."
Jiang Yan blinked, unable to hide the surprise on his face.
I can't tell.
Young Master Gu always has a smile on his face. It is common to talk and laugh with him. There is a kind of free and unrestrained air in his words and actions.
Jiang Yan stayed in Gu's house for a few days. He occasionally saw him talking to servants, and he was always in a friendly and calm manner. He had never seen...his overbearing side before.
If you think about it carefully, it seems to make sense.
It’s not that Gu Jingyun didn’t get angry before, he just avoided it on purpose so that he didn’t see it.
What's more, the Sword Sect is not a small sect in the corner of Kala. Gu Jingyun is the young master of the sect and holds a high position of power.
He is rich and powerful. When he says that the sun rises in the west and sets in the east, probably everyone will agree and say, "Young master, you are right."
But Jiang Yan didn't want to spoil him.
It is true that Gu Jingyun is his good friend, but friends should not be so overbearing.
Jiang Yan didn't speak for a long time. Gu Jingyun realized that he had said something wrong and cursed himself in his heart.
When he spoke again, the man's voice was more than one degree softer than before.
He asked cautiously, "Ayan, did I scare you? It's my fault for speaking nonsense."
Jiang Yan said calmly: "You can't be so overbearing. It's unreasonable."
The other end of the note transmission.
The talisman paper was burning quietly. The moon was bright, the north wind was cold, and Gu Jingyun's heart sank.
You won't even let me express my jealousy in words?
Who is the bossy one?
Just as the thought came to his mind, Gu Jingyun heard Jiang Yan trying to reason with him in a gentle tone, as if he were trying to persuade a bad boy.
"It's normal to be possessive and protective of your friends. But you can't go too far. He just had physical contact with me and didn't hit or hurt me, so why do you have to kill him?"
"Will you kill a man if I shake his hand?"
Gu Jingyun: "..."
Jiang Yan comforted her, "Don't worry. I don't like socializing, and I may not make other friends in the future. Even if I make new friends, Jingyun, you are the most important one."
Gu Jingyun: “…………”
No, I, you, this—
Gu Jingyun was almost angry to death on the spot, and a feeling of despair arose in his heart.
I talk to you about love, and you talk to me about friendship.
I thought the topic between us was just like the swordsman's flying sword, which would speed up as soon as it was kicked. But when I looked down, I found that I was stepping on a wooden sword used by young children for practice - the kind that had a super speed-limiting rune engraved on it.
Gu Jingyun closed his eyes: I want to die.
Jiang Yan poked the sound transmission note suspiciously and asked, "Jing Yun, why are you not talking? Are you still here?"
Gu Jingyun quickly came back to life, opened his eyes and replied, "I'm here."
Jiang Yan: "Did you hear what I said earlier?"
Gu Jingyun said weakly: "I heard it."
Jiang Yan: "If I have a new friend, you can't kill anyone."
Gu Jingyun: "..."
There was silence on the other end for a while.
Jiang Yan felt uneasy, thinking that his tone was too harsh and hurt Gu Jingyun's feelings. He was about to ask carefully when he heard the man sigh.
"Can."
The man said lazily, with a half-smile: "How about this. I promise you, and you have to promise me one thing too."
"What's up?"
"I won't kill your 'friend', and you can't study the Hehuan Pill in private, and you can't agree to practice dual cultivation with others." Gu Jingyun said.
Jiang Yan said tactfully: "These are clearly two different things." It didn't seem fair.
Gu Jingyun drew out his voice, "After all, I am a 'domineering' person."
All right.
Jiang Yan said: "But I don't practice dual cultivation with others, how can I reconcile the incompatible internal energy and mental method of water and fire?"
He doesn't want to stop at the Nascent Soul stage.
However, Gu Jingyun's request was not unacceptable.
It is not easy to find someone who can practice dual cultivation with him. He needs to know everything about her, trust each other, and be able to keep secrets for her.
Jiang Yan has too many secrets. One of them is his dual cultivation of sword and magic, and the other is his half-elf bloodline.
Half-elf.
A mixed race that was once coveted by humans because of its elf-like appearance, but was rejected by the elves because it did not have pointy ears.
If his father had not helped the elves to survive the crisis of racial survival a thousand years ago, and the person he loved was not the highest-ranking priestess, Jiang Yan, as a half-elf, would not have been able to stay in the elf tribe.
When in the magical continent, Jiang Yan would hide his identity as a half-elf when he mingled among humans.
Now that I have traveled to another world, it is even less likely that I will be easily exposed.
Jiang Yan didn't know whether dual cultivation would expose his secret, so he was very cautious.
Gu Jingyun’s request was no big deal at all.
But it needs to be changed.
Jiang Yan suggested: "How about changing it to - if I find someone I can practice dual cultivation with, I'll tell you first so you can check it out?"
He is not as familiar with the world of immortal cultivation as Young Master Gu, and with someone to help control his character, he is not afraid of being cheated.
"...Okay." Gu Jingyun agreed helplessly.
Jiang Yan always felt that Gu Jingyun's voice sounded very weak.
"Are you tired?" Jiang Yan asked with concern, "Rest early."
Gu Jingyun was indeed tired, but it was just mental fatigue.
"Yeah, you too. I..." Gu Jingyun's lips moved slightly, and he said something in an imperceptible voice.
Jiang Yan was startled: "What did you just say?"
"I say, good night." Gu Jingyun said with a smile.
"...Good night." Jiang Yan responded softly.
The two of them tacitly disconnected their spiritual power at the same time, and the small flame on the sound transmission note grew larger in an instant, swallowing up most of the remaining talisman paper in the blink of an eye, burning it to ashes.
There was a little dust on the table.
Jiang Yan stared blankly at the ashes. The room was silent. The only sounds he could hear were his shallow breathing and the pounding of his heart.
The sound of night watchmen was faintly heard outside the window. Jiang Yan woke up with a start and quickly cleaned up the ashes with a magic spell.
The night was getting darker, but he did not go to sleep. Instead, he sat at the desk, took out the two-way mirror, and began to disassemble and study it.
The Hehuan Sect has strict restrictions on who can enter and leave.
Qibao is not a disciple of the sect, nor a relative, so he cannot enter. When Jiang Yan leaves with his master, he will return to Feng'an City.
Jiang Yan wanted to make the two-sided mirror before Qibao left, and asked him to bring it to Gu Jingyun.
Gu Jingyun probably didn't know that Jiang Yan's hearing was several times that of an ordinary person. What he thought was the volume of a breath sounded very clear to Jiang Yan's ears.
He heard it.
What Gu Jingyun said was not good night.
But a sentence——
【I miss you very much.】
The night is still long.
