In fact, the reason why Elder Wang believed Liu Xiaoyuan's words was mainly because he did not believe that there was any magical treasure in the world that could confidently traverse the Crimson Purgatory.
It should be noted that the Crimson Purgatory only opens once every hundred years. Previously, there have been cultivators at the Golden Core stage and above who attempted to break the rules of the Crimson Purgatory and force their way in. Among them were cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage, the Divine Transformation stage, and even the Mahayana stage.
However, without exception, they were all directly expelled by the rules of the Crimson Purgatory, and if they dared to enter it again next time, they might be injured by the rules of the Crimson Purgatory.
Therefore, after this incident, no one dared to forcibly enter the Crimson Purgatory anymore, and they had to act in accordance with the rules of the Crimson Purgatory.
Elder Wang looked at Liu Xiaoyuan and asked, "Then what kind of magic weapon is that?"
Liu Xiaoyuan said, "It's just a manor, but there are many mysteries inside."
After chatting with Elder Wang for a few minutes, Elder Wang called Gu Yuxi in and asked her to take Liu Xiaoyuan to stay.
Upon arriving at their lodgings, Liu Xiaoyuan said to Gu Yuxi in an annoyed tone, "Gu Yuxi, are you trying to get me killed?"
Gu Yuxi was taken aback when she saw Liu Xiaoyuan suddenly and inexplicably lose his temper, not understanding what had happened.
Liu Xiaoyuan said irritably, "You say I have a magic weapon that allows me to travel freely through the Crimson Purgatory? If other people find out, wouldn't they all want to snatch this magic weapon from me?"
Seeing that Liu Xiaoyuan was angry, Gu Yuxi said, "Liu Xiaoyuan, you can't talk nonsense. I didn't cause you any trouble at all. I just told Elder Wang that we were sent out by a magic weapon from the Crimson Purgatory."
Hearing Gu Yuxi's words, Liu Xiaoyuan realized that he had misunderstood Gu Yuxi. It seemed that Elder Wang, that bastard, was trying to trick him. He was truly an old fox.
I should be careful when talking to these old foxes in the future.
"Yu Xi, I'm sorry." Since he had misunderstood Gu Yu Xi, Liu Xiaoyuan naturally had to apologize to her.
Gu Yuxi said, "It's okay, as long as you don't misunderstand me again in the future."
Hearing Gu Yuxi's words, Liu Xiaoyuan knew that she was really angry. He smiled and pulled Gu Yuxi aside, saying, "Little sister Gu, don't be angry. I only said those things in a moment of panic. Please don't be angry."
After being coaxed by Liu Xiaoyuan, Gu Yuxi finally said she wasn't angry anymore, and Liu Xiaoyuan breathed a sigh of relief.
That evening, Gu Yuxi came to Liu Xiaoyuan's place and invited him to dinner. Liu Xiaoyuan followed Gu Yuxi to the restaurant, and while they were eating, Liu Xiaoyuan said to Gu Yuxi, "Sister Gu, could you please tell your master that I need to see your sect leader?"
Gu Yuxi found it strange that Liu Xiaoyuan insisted on seeing his sect leader.
"Liu Xiaoyuan, why do you keep wanting to see our sect leader? Is there something you need from him?" Gu Yuxi asked curiously.
Liu Xiaoyuan said, "It's not that I have anything to do, I just want to see the demeanor of your Bihai Pavilion's leader. This is my wish, and I hope it can be fulfilled soon."
Hearing Liu Xiaoyuan's words, Gu Yuxi refused to believe it no matter what, but she didn't ask any more questions and said, "How about this, I'll tell my master and hope that he can talk to the sect leader about it."
After dinner, Liu Xiaoyuan and Gu Yuxi took a walk in Bihai Pavilion and ran into Gu Yuxi's master, Zhang Yi. Zhang Yi looked to be a woman in her thirties, with graceful bearing, and could be considered a mature woman.
"Yu Xi, this must be Liu Xiaoyuan?" Zhang Yi asked with a smile as she looked at Liu Xiaoyuan.
Gu Yuxi said, "Yes, Master, he is Liu Xiaoyuan."
Zhang Yi said with a smile, "Yu Xi told me everything about the Crimson Purgatory. Thank you for saving Yu Xi in the Crimson Purgatory. Without your help, Yu Xi might not have been able to come back from the Crimson Purgatory."
Liu Xiaoyuan said with a smile, "You're too kind. It's just a matter of helping those in need."
After chatting for a few minutes, Liu Xiaoyuan left first. Watching Liu Xiaoyuan's departing figure, Zhang Yi looked at Gu Yuxi and asked, "Yuxi, tell your master honestly, have you fallen for him?"
Hearing her master ask this, Gu Yuxi blushed, not understanding why her master would ask such a question.
However, Gu Yuxi did have some feelings for Liu Xiaoyuan.
Seeing Gu Yuxi's expression, Zhang Yi knew her guess was correct; her apprentice did indeed have feelings for Liu Xiaoyuan.
"Yu Xi, your most important task right now is cultivation, not romance. We are cultivators, and what we pursue is immortality. Once your cultivation reaches the Nascent Soul stage, you can maintain your youthful and beautiful appearance. Therefore, age is not a problem for us cultivators at all. From now on, have less contact with Liu Xiaoyuan and focus on your cultivation!"
In the past, Gu Yuxi would not have felt any aversion to these words, but now, she was somewhat unwilling.
However, as a well-behaved girl, Gu Yuxi didn't dare to contradict her master to his face. Therefore, she felt that she should just outwardly comply with her master's words while inwardly disobeying them.
After returning to his room, Liu Xiaoyuan lay in bed unable to sleep, troubled by the mission. If the leader of Bihai Pavilion were just an ordinary girl, he wouldn't be worried at all; he could just launch a strong offensive. After all, a good woman is afraid of being pursued by a persistent man.
However, the sect leader of Bihai Pavilion is no ordinary woman. Her cultivation level is unknown. A woman like her would probably look down on a newbie like me who is only at the Golden Core stage.
Damn it, this is a really awful task! Liu Xiaoyuan was a little troubled.
Damn it, if I knew which room the leader of the Azure Sea Pavilion was staying in, I would have stormed over there tonight!
However, this was just something Liu Xiaoyuan was thinking about.
Alas! This task is arduous and has a long way to go!
In a daze, Liu Xiaoyuan slept until dawn. Apart from Gu Yuxi, Liu Xiaoyuan did not know anyone in Bihai Pavilion. But when he woke up, he found that Gu Yuxi was also gone.
It was already noon, and there was still no sign of Gu Yuxi, which made Liu Xiaoyuan feel very strange.
Did Gu Yuxi go on a mission?
Liu Xiaoyuan was like someone forgotten by the Bihai Pavilion; there was no point in him staying there. Since he couldn't see the sect leader, Liu Xiaoyuan was just wasting his time.
However, it was quite obvious that the leader of the Bihai Pavilion did not want to see Liu Xiaoyuan.
Therefore, Liu Xiaoyuan did not intend to waste any more time here. He would go find the person in charge of Bihai Pavilion again. If the sect leader of Bihai Pavilion still refused to see him, he would just leave and not waste any more time here!
