Gu Yuan slowly woke up. The pain in his chest was gone. He looked at the emerald green powder on his chest. It must be this thing that was working.
"well!"
With a heavy sigh, Gu Yuan wanted to slap himself.
After sixteen years, I finally lost my caution the moment the system came into being.
The moment he got the system, Gu Yuan unconsciously became less cautious. He was even arrogant when facing eight men in black of unknown origin. Instead of choosing to escape directly, he was blocked in space and could not escape.
If Gu Shang had not arrived in time, I would probably be an idiot now.
"The existence of the system made me fearless and arrogant. Looking back now, it's really ridiculous."
In the face of strength, even the system can't save him!
Shaking his head, Gu Yuan smiled bitterly. He thought he would be invincible with the system, but it turned out that the system was not omnipotent.
Just like this time!
"Never mind, never mind. I have a problem with my thinking. The system is just an auxiliary tool. It's right. What I should do is rely on the system to continuously strengthen myself. Otherwise, even with the system, I will still become a pile of bones."
The ochre-colored spiritual energy gushed out from his fingertips, and there was a hint of determination in Gu Yuan's eyes.
"hiss……"
Taking a deep breath, Gu Yuan endured the pain of his bones being pulled and got out of bed.
"There are still seventy pills left. I have to sell them!"
Gu Yuan longed for spiritual skills and strength!
After completing the mission, Gu Yuan, who was only a third-level spiritual disciple at that time, decided to go to the Black Demon Mountains for training. Without being tempered in blood and fire, he would never grow.
"Miss Jiujiu, where are you?"
I walked out of the room and looked at the other two rooms, which were Han Ji and Gu Shang's rooms, both of which were tightly closed at the moment.
"Strange, I'm still injured, why don't you leave someone to take care of me?"
I was holding onto the stairs and about to go down, but when I was halfway there, it happened to be nine o'clock.
"Mr. Gu, why did you come out?" Jiujiu hurriedly went to meet him.
"I feel uncomfortable staying in the room, so I came out for a walk." Gu Yuan said with a smile.
"Then let me help you."
Jiujiu carried Gu Yuan and walked down the stairs step by step.
"By the way, where are the host and Miss Han? I think they are not in the room." Gu Yuan asked.
"I don't know about that either. Miss Han said she had something to go out for, and I think the host went with her."
Gu Yuan was a little surprised. Gu Shang’s soul injury had not yet recovered. What had she been doing?
"Miss Jiujiu, can you do me a favor?"
"Hmm? Just call me Jiujiu. What can I do for you, Master Gu?"
"Can you help me find someone in the Mercenary Guild Hall?"
"Huh? Who are you looking for?" Jiujiu asked in confusion.
"Look for a man named Mu San, the captain of the Firefox mercenary team. You might run into him there. If you see him, bring him to me."
Gu Yuan described Mu San's appearance to Jiujiu.
"Okay. But what about you, Mr. Gu?"
"I'll go sit on the first floor for a while! Let's go down together."
After reaching the first floor, Gu Yuan randomly picked a corner to sit down, and then Jiujiu left.
"Sir, what can I do for you?"
The servant came up and asked respectfully. He just saw that the person in front of him was helped down by Miss Jiujiu from the fourth floor herself, so his identity must be extraordinary.
"Give me some of their signature dishes and grab a pitcher of wine."
After thinking for a while, Gu Yuan said, "I don't know why, but I just want to drink some wine."
"Okay, please wait a moment, sir."
"Sir, do you need me to drink with you?"
A charming and seductive woman sat down next to Gu Yuan, her small feet rubbing against his calves inadvertently.
"Ahem, this...sister, I don't need it."
"Oh, you are really shy, sir. I don't want any money, I will just chat with you, okay?"
"Okay, but let me make it clear first, I won't do that kind of thing." Gu Yuan said seriously.
"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you, Master."
"Here I am! Enjoy your meal, sir!"
The servant came up with wine and food.
The woman picked up the wine glass and poured a glass of wine for Gu Yuan.
"What's the girl's name?" Gu Yuan asked.
"My name is Xiao Taohong." The woman's eyes sparkled and she smiled softly with her hands covering her mouth.
"Forehead……"
Gu Yuan's face was full of black lines. Xiao Taohong, is there such a person in every fireworks place?
"Come, sir, I'll have a drink with you." The woman brought a glass of wine to Gu Yuan's mouth.
Unused to being served like this, Gu Yuan took the wine glass and took a sip. A spicy taste went into his throat, making his face flush. He coughed violently a few times, causing pain in his chest.
“Ahahaha…”
Seeing Gu Yuan's expression, the woman chuckled, leaned towards Gu Yuan, and blew the hot air from her mouth into his ears, "I didn't expect that you are still a virgin."
"Uh, don't be like that."
Gu Yuan's face flushed red, and it was unclear whether it was because he had just choked on the wine or because of the woman's explicit words.
Pushing the woman aside, Gu Yuan said, "Xiao Taohong, tell me if there has been any major event in the city recently."
He still had a shadow in his heart about what happened a few days ago. He didn't know if it was a misunderstanding or was directed at him. Who was the "he" that person was talking about? And who was the Saint?
"Big deal? Let me think about it."
After thinking for a while, Xiao Taohong said, "I don't know if it's a big deal, but there has indeed been an interesting thing happening in the city recently."
"Oh? Tell me about it."
"Just two hours ago, the City Lord's Mansion issued a wanted order, saying someone was planning to harm the princess, and they're now searching the entire city for him. It's strange, though, how did His Highness and the Princess ever come to our Beastmaster City on the border? We've never heard of them before."
