In the spiritual world, not everyone can afford to use storage magic tools. In the Gu family, as one of the seven major cultivation families in the spiritual world, only the patriarch and a few elders can be equipped with storage magic tools.
The fact that Zhao Yu can use storage magic tools shows that he is extremely favored in the family.
However, after thinking about it in his mind, he seemed to have never heard of a person named Zhao Yu in the Zhao family.
However, it is also possible that he just happens to have the surname Zhao and is not a member of the Zhao family, a family of cultivators.
If that's the case, the fact that he can use a storage bag shows that he is not simple.
Thinking of this, Gu Yan looked at Xue Huan with a gradually flattering look.
"Brother Zhao, since we both come from the spirit world, please take me with you when you go back. Of course, I won't take advantage of you for nothing. When we get to the spirit world and return to the Gu family, I will offer you a generous reward. Or if you want anything, just ask for it. As long as I can satisfy you, I will never refuse!"
In fact, Gu Yan's words were not very confident, the reason was very simple. Even though the Gu family was one of the seven great cultivation families and had a very good reputation outside, their family was not the main family, but just a branch that had been separated out.
In short, their family is not rich, otherwise he would not have run to the dangerous Wuwang Mountain to earn resources for cultivation. If he had not run to Wuwang Mountain, he would not have encountered two big monsters fighting and was dragged into the space crack.
Alas, it brings tears to my eyes.
But never mind him. Let’s just fool Zhao Yu first. When we follow him back to the spirit world, we can discuss everything then.
How could he know that Xue Huan didn't tell a single truth, even the name "Zhao Yu" was fake.
It can be said that both of them are trying their best to fool each other.
Xue Huan felt guilty after hearing what Gu Yan said. Why should she go back? She was originally a person of the secular world. However, since she had already created the persona of "a rich young master from the spiritual world who was ignorant of the sufferings of the secular world and came here to experience life" in front of him, she naturally had to continue playing the role.
Only in this way can she get more information about the spirit world from Gu Yan and prepare for her future trip to the spirit world.
Only by going to the spiritual world can she be free from the oppression of the secular laws of nature and advance to a higher realm, so she must go to the spiritual world.
But not now. In the secular world, she still has many things to complete and many concerns that she cannot let go of.
But it’s always better to prepare early.
"Brother Gu, I haven't had enough fun yet and don't want to go back now." Xue Huan's tone was quite willful.
Gu Yan didn't understand. "What's so fun about this secular world? I feel so depressed here."
He had no spiritual energy and no resources. What he ate and drank did not contain any spiritual energy. Turbid energy accumulated in his body, causing his cultivation to become slower and slower. The slower his cultivation, the less likely he was to recover from his injuries. As his injuries could not recover, he had to use the little spiritual energy he had accumulated with great difficulty to heal his injuries. The faster he cultivated, the slower it became. It was simply a vicious cycle.
Xue Huan also felt that her excuse was unreliable, so she rolled her eyes and made up a more believable one. "To be honest, I didn't come to the secular world for fun. Do you think I would want to run to this desolate place?"
From Gu Yan's tone, Xue Huan easily sensed that he had a condescending and contemptuous attitude towards the secular world, or rather, the people in the spiritual world in general.
So she followed the mentality of people in the spiritual world and deliberately belittled the secular world.
Sure enough, Gu Yan showed an expression of approval on his face.
"So what is Brother Zhao doing?"
"Actually, I ran away from an arranged marriage. My family arranged a marriage for me, but I didn't like the other person at all. But the woman fell in love with me and insisted on marrying me. I had no choice but to run away and hide in the secular world. I thought that the woman wouldn't chase me back to the secular world. After I hid for a while, she would definitely give up."
Xue Huan showed a smug expression.
Gu Yan gave her a thumbs up and said, "Brother Zhao, you really tried your best to avoid your family's arranged marriage."
"Well, who says it isn't?"
Gu Yan also told the story of how he was dragged down to the mortal world by two fighting monsters.
The two looked at each other, and both showed a sense of mutual admiration.
"Then Brother Zhao, how long do you plan to hide?" Gu Yan asked.
Xue Huan pretended to be silent for a moment, "I have to hide for at least a year or two. Otherwise, if the time is too short, I'm afraid my family will force me to marry that woman as soon as I return."
A year or two... Gu Yan felt a little bitter. If he had to wait another year or two, he would probably become an ordinary person. However, the method of returning to the spirit world was in the hands of others, so he couldn't rush them.
It's not that he didn't have other thoughts in mind, but with his current strength, if he failed to subdue Zhao Yu and instead became enemies with him, his way back would be completely cut off. So he was not willing to take action against Zhao Yu unless it was absolutely necessary.
But he didn't expect the appeasement approach to be so difficult.
"Well, to be honest with you, Brother Zhao, everything I owned was destroyed after I fell into the space crack, and I was also seriously injured. I look fine now, but the situation is actually very grim. If I delay any further, I'm afraid I won't be able to endure it. Brother Zhao, can you take me back to the spirit world first, and then you can re-enter the secular world..."
Gu Yan also felt that it was a bit unreasonable, but he had no choice, right?
Xue Huan shook her head, looking helpless. "Brother Gu, it's not that I don't want to help you. Once I return to the spirit world, my father will know immediately. Then, even if I hide in the mortal world, he will send people to capture me. The reason I can still hide well now is because they never expected me to hide in the mortal world."
Gu Yan sighed and said, "I'm forcing you to do something."
There was no way to return to the spiritual world for the time being, so he set his sights on the storage magic device on Zhao Yu. There must be a lot of supplies in his storage magic device, right?
He covered his chest and coughed for a while. "Brother Zhao, do you have any healing pills on you? If so, could you lend me a bottle? I'll return it to you as soon as I return to the spirit world."
He asked to borrow a bottle right away. Was it because the healing pills from the spiritual world were so common that they were worthless, or was it because he was taking advantage of her? Xue Huan was more inclined to the latter.
What's more, what he said, "I will pay it back immediately when I return to the spiritual world", was just a blank check.
He doesn't have any healing pills on him now, but he can get them immediately after returning to the spiritual world?
If he goes back on his word, who can she turn to for justice?
He seemed sincere, but in fact he promised nothing.
She had plenty of healing pills and wasn't reluctant to lend them to him, but if he tricked her into lending them to him, she would feel uncomfortable, as if she had swallowed a fly.
"Of course I have healing pills. Since we are so destined to meet, you don't have to return them." Xue Huan took out a white jade bottle, which contained a batch of rejuvenation pills that she had refined.
Although the rejuvenation pill is only a first-level pill, she has tried it and found that it has a very good healing effect.
Gu Yan was overjoyed when he heard this, "Thank you so much, Brother Zhao!" He was about to reach out to take the bottle of medicine.
Xue Huan dodged his hand, "Brother Gu, why are you so anxious? I haven't finished what I'm saying yet."
Gu Yan smiled awkwardly.
"I have a truth talisman here. If Brother Gu is willing to let me put it on you and ask you a few questions, I will give you this bottle of pills. How about it?"
