"Half a year? That long?"
Lin Wan'er widened her eyes and asked in surprise.
Gu Yuan couldn't help but laugh and said, "Hey, it's only half a year, how long is that?"
"But didn't you say that the Fire Cloud Conference will be held in three months? You haven't taken me to the actual combat yet!" Lin Wan'er said somewhat depressedly.
Gu Yuan frowned suddenly. By the way, this girl still has to participate in the Fire Cloud Conference!
The Fire Cloud Conference is a necessary procedure for entering the Fire Cloud Sect. Lin Wan'er must pass this level, otherwise everything else will be out of the question.
"Well, how about I let my men take you to actual combat? It just so happens that he has three or four people training there, so it wouldn't be a big deal to take you with him." After thinking about it, Gu Yuan still thought of the blood coffin.
Improving his strength is something Gu Yuan can't wait to do. He doesn't have the patience to lead Lin Wan'er in actual combat for a while longer.
"Ah? Is that so? I wanted you to take me with you. What a pity." Lin Wan'er said with a bitter face.
"Haha, the same. He's no worse than me in leading you, only better than me, because he's the powerful Spirit King I just told you about!"
After hearing this, Lin Wan'er was shocked again.
"He's actually a Spirit King, and you want him to take me to actual combat?"
"What? Is there a problem? You don't want to?" Gu Yuan asked.
"Yes! Of course I am willing! He is a powerful Spirit King. I have never seen a powerful Spirit King. It's settled. When can I go and fight with him?" Lin Wan'er looked at Gu Yuan expectantly.
Gu Yuan moved the corners of his mouth, speechless about Lin Wan'er's sudden change.
Isn't this attitude change too much?
"Isn't it just a Spirit King? One day I can achieve that."
Mumbling, Gu Yuan said, "I'll tell him about this when I get back. He'll come to the City Lord's Mansion to pick you up personally. You just have to wait patiently."
"Is that so? Fine then!"
"Well, you should tell your father about it too, so that he won't worry about you. But don't tell the truth, otherwise he will know about your changes." Gu Yuan reminded.
"Oh, I know all this, don't worry." Lin Wan'er made a relieved expression and said.
"Well, that's good! Remember to find a reliable person to take good care of the princess when you are not around. Don't be careless at all." Gu Yuan said again.
"Yeah, I know."
After leaving the room, Gu Yuan found Shui Ningye and asked him for a large number of pills again under the pretext of refining medicine. Then, after practicing in the secret room of the City Lord's Mansion for six days, he walked out with a tired face.
"Mr. Yuan, thank you for your hard work."
Shui Ningye stood outside the secret room and said to Gu Yuan.
Nodding slightly, Gu Yuan handed a dozen jade bottles to Shui Ningye and said, "Princess, take one of these pills every two weeks."
"Sir, you have refined so many pills this time. Is there anything you need to do in the near future?" Shui Ningye was very attentive.
"That's right. I may not be able to come here for the next half year, so I will refine enough pills at once before coming out." Gu Yuan said.
"Sir, where are you going?" Shui Ningye asked.
"Don't ask me any more questions. I naturally have my own things to do. I've already given you the elixir. Just give it to the princess on time."
After saying that, Gu Yuan paused and said, "Maybe I can wake the princess up in half a year."
"Are you serious, sir?" Shui Ningye's eyes lit up and he was very excited.
"Of course. That's all. I'll be leaving now. Take care, Your Highness."
Clasping his fists, Gu Yuan left the City Lord's Mansion without any hesitation.
"Uncle Jin, do you think what he said is true?"
Shui Ningye looked behind him and suddenly asked.
Jin Yi, dressed in a black robe, walked out from the darkness. He looked at the departing figure, thought for a moment, and said, "If this Mr. Yuan is truly a fourth-grade alchemist, then it's not impossible."
"What do you mean, Uncle Jin? Are you still unwilling to believe Mr. Yuan? Or are you doubting my judgment?" Shui Ningye's face looked a little ugly.
"I dare not."
Jin Yi said calmly, "I just suddenly felt that the test I made on him that day was a little strange. I felt that the power didn't burst out from his body at all. It felt very strange."
"Uncle Jin, are you sure you didn't make a mistake?" Shui Ningye asked with a frown.
"I don't know. Maybe I really perceived it wrongly, and I hope I perceived it wrongly." Jin Yi said.
"Alas, there is nothing we can do now. We can only rely on him." Shui Ningye shook his head, and the moment he turned around, a hint of cruelty appeared in his eyes.
"I hope you don't notice anything, otherwise I won't be able to keep you, Uncle Jin." Shui Ningye said secretly in his heart.
After returning to the Abyss Pawnshop, Gu Yuan told the Blood Coffin what happened in the City Lord's Mansion. In the end, the Blood Coffin readily agreed under the temptation of a few small bottles of blood.
Gu Yuan looked at the blood coffin and said speechlessly, "You are really a man who won't do anything without blood. You won't do anything without blood."
The Blood Coffin smiled and said, "You want a Spirit King to be your free laborer? What are you thinking? How can you have so many good things happen to you? Besides, what you got from the Lingshan Sect's treasury..."
Suddenly, the assistant manager stopped talking because he remembered that there was someone next to him.
Glancing at Liu Cang awkwardly, Xue Guan coughed lightly and said seriously, "Liu Cang, you'll be following me from tomorrow. Didn't you say you wanted revenge? Very good. Have you seen that brat? I want you to defeat him in six months. Do you have the confidence?"
