"Miss Gu, I'm Qi Ronger. Have you forgotten me?"
Qi Ronger couldn't help it, tightened his grip on the sword in his hand, and reminded again.
Gu Wan seemed to think for a moment, "Oh, now I remember, you joined the Tiansha Sect? That's great."
Qi Ronger thought she would be surprised, but seeing that she didn't seem to care at all, she felt a little uncomfortable for some reason.
"I, I can practice, and I have detected my spiritual roots."
Sui Lian was standing next to Gu Wan. He heard their entire conversation and his eyes fell on Qi Ronger.
Gu Wan lowered her head and adjusted the hem of her skirt. "Hmm, that's amazing."
Sui Lian didn't say anything, but he could tell that the other party must be feeling very uncomfortable after hearing what Gu Wan said, but Gu Wan seemed to be unaware of it at all.
The smile on Qi Ronger's face did not last any longer, but her back became straighter.
Gu Wan turned her head to look at Sui Lian and winked at him.
Sui Lian understood what she meant instantly. It wasn't that she didn't understand the other party's showing off or provocation, but she just wanted to make sure that the other party didn't get any benefits.
He didn't know why he felt happy deep down in his heart. It seemed that she was much more insightful and open-minded than he thought. It seemed that it was not bad to spend the rest of her life with him, at least better than some people.
But when he came to this thought, the three words "a lifetime" seemed to hammer at his heart, reminding him that he would take revenge no matter what.
Gu Qingsong's speech was almost over, and the disciples entered the trial field one after another.
Gu Xing never saw Gu Wan again after that day. He stood aside holding a sword, without saying a word.
Gu Qingsong came to see Gu Wan off. The trial of Quanxu Sect was not that simple and was full of difficulties.
"If you encounter any difficulties, be sure to send a signal in time and Daddy will come to rescue you."
The other disciples around were also watching quietly from the side, but most of them had only heard about Gu Qingsong's favorite daughter, and didn't know how much of the rumor was true, but now they could be considered to have seen it with their own eyes.
Gu Wan pursed her lips and nodded, "Okay, Daddy, don't worry, I'll be fine with Junior Brother Sui by my side."
When Gu Xing heard this, he just glanced at her.
Gu Qingsong gave her some instructions for a long time before watching her go in.
Chen Liang and Qi Ronger went in before Gu Wan and the others.
Chen Liang respected Gu Qingsong. After all, he was his elder and had profound attainments. "I didn't expect Master Gu to be like this. It's quite interesting." He chuckled.
Qi Ronger nodded and looked ahead, but her mind had already drifted away. In the past two days, she had learned more about the Quanxu Sect.
In order to protect her daughter, Gu Qingsong has chosen a promising disciple to be Gu Wan's husband. She just thinks Gu Wan is so happy, so happy that it makes people jealous, so only in this way can she develop her carefree and free-spirited character.
The trial site is about three hundred acres. Each team that comes in can choose a different direction and encounter different challenges. There are also some spiritual beasts inside, but only disciples of high levels can open them. Of course, there will be rewards at the end of the level, such as elixirs or mental methods.
Qin Yang will not participate in this trial. He and other brothers will wait outside to see if any disciples can't hold on and send out signals so that he can go and rescue them.
"Junior sister, please be careful and follow me. Ah Xing, please." His tone was very serious.
Sui Lian and Gu Xing bowed and agreed, holding their swords.
Three people entered the trial field.
Gu Wan followed Sui Lian, walking step by step without saying a word.
Sui Lian glanced at her sideways and could sense that she was in a bad mood. He reached out to her and said, "Grab my hand or sleeve."
Gu Wan looked up at her, pursed her thin lips, and tugged at his sleeve.
Gu Xing was leading the way in front. When he heard Sui Lian's words, he paused. He thought it was just a burden, but he actually took it to heart. It was a bit ridiculous.
"Follow Junior Brother, there are small beasts ahead, but there are already disciples from other sects."
Gu Wan looked up and met Gu Xing's eyes, then turned away as if nothing had happened.
Sui Lian hummed softly, "Then we'll wait for a while."
In this case, others have already taken action, and they cannot interfere. If they win, they will definitely get a reward, but to continue moving forward, they must pass the level ahead. However, after a while, they will go in a different direction from them.
Gu Xing had already identified them as disciples of the Quanxing School by their clothes.
Sui Lian protected Gu Wan behind him. After all, swords and knives have no mercy, and it would be bad if she was hurt.
Gu Wan stood behind and grabbed Sui Lian's sleeve.
Gu Xing stood beside with a sword in his hand, glancing at Gu Wan vaguely, but then looked away.
However, the two disciples in front seemed unable to resist.
One of the young men with phoenix eyes turned around and looked at Sui Lian.
"Could this fellow Daoist do me a favor and reward us half each when we succeed?"
After saying this, he continued forward with his sword.
Sui Lian would not stand by and watch someone die. He asked Gu Wan to stand still and went up to help.
Gu Wan was observing Sui Lian. He was already at the third level of the Golden Core Realm, and his talent was indeed outstanding.
In just a moment, the spirit beast was defeated, and the reward was four high-quality pills.
The Quanxu Sect's top-quality elixirs cannot be bought with even a lot of spirit stones.
Gu Wan stepped forward and asked Sui Lian with concern, "Are you injured anywhere?"
Sui Lian shook his head.
Only then did Gu Wan feel relieved.
The two disciples were very excited when they saw the pills in their hands. After all, their Quanxing Sect was a small sect and they rarely saw such pills.
"Thank you, fellow Taoist. Are you from the Quanxu Sect?"
Sui Lian nodded and said yes.
The Daoist who had just asked for help took out a pill and said, "Since you are from the Quanxu Sect, you must not be short of pills. This is a gift for you to help."
Gu Xing frowned, "When Daoyou asked my junior brother for help just now, you promised to give us half. Now shouldn't you give us two?"
The disciple from the Quanxing Sect looked a little embarrassed. "We were the first to get this spirit beast. Giving you one is more than enough. Besides, your Quanxu Sect doesn't need this kind of stuff, does it?"
Gu Xing sneered softly. He was already in a bad mood. "It has nothing to do with whether we are from the Quanxu Sect or not. The two gems should have been ours."
Another disciple from the Quanxing Sect reached out and tugged at his junior brother's sleeve. "Two is fine, but if today's events get out, I wonder if the Quanxu Sect will be able to maintain its reputation."
Gu Xing wanted to say something else.
Sui Lian reached out to stop him, "You are the ones who should be blamed. You are so ungrateful and ungrateful. I wonder if your sect's headmaster Qingshu will personally come and apologize."
The disciple was obviously irritated. "You." He then noticed Gu Wan, who had been silent beside him, and suddenly laughed. "I thought you had such a bad temper. So you are a disciple who married into the family, marrying a useless beauty. Such a mindset is really beyond the comprehension of us."
After hearing this, Gu Wan shook Sui Lian's hand and said, "What's wrong? I see you really want to marry into my family, but unfortunately, I think you are very ugly and have little talent. Tsk, I guess your sect must be very poor, otherwise you would attach so much importance to these four pills."
As she spoke, her eyebrows were slightly raised and her tone was very disdainful, showing her contempt and disgust for them to the fullest.
As he said that, he took out a bottle from his key.
"See? I usually throw them around for fun, and you were supposed to give us two, but now I'm feeling really bad, so give us all four."
The two disciples in front of him were already very angry, "Miss Gu, please be careful with your words."
Gu Wan curled her lips and smiled, "I've been very careful with my words. You know my identity, and you still dare to bully me? Hand it over quickly. I feel sick to my stomach giving you the elixirs made by my Uncle Li. Otherwise, after we get out of the trial field, I will ask my father to go to your Quanxing Sect to seek justice. I believe your leader will be very happy. My father has never wronged me in the slightest, so who do you think you are?"
After she finished speaking, there was no trace of smile on her face, giving people a sense of oppression. Although she had no spiritual energy, she was the daughter of Master Gu from the famous Quanxu Sect. How could she really be completely without any aura and scheming?
The two disciples couldn't argue any more, so they could only put the pill in the air angrily and turn away.
Gu Xing was stunned by Gu Wan's set of rhetoric. She had this side of her, she was eloquent and could make the elders in her family sound so justified.
Sui Lian's mind was always on the hand she was holding, and his ears had already turned red and hot.
Gu Wan reached out and picked up the pills from the air and handed them to Sui Lian.
"Here you go. Don't take what they said to heart. You're such a good person. I always feel guilty towards you."
Completely different from her self-righteous and aggressive attitude just now, she is soft, sweet and cute.
Sui Lian lowered his head and placed the pill into the space cloth bag he carried with him.
"I never took it to heart."
Gu Xing didn't know when their relationship became so close, but what did it have to do with her? Sui Lian was the future husband chosen by Gu Qingsong for her.
He continued to move forward with his sword.
"Should we change direction?"
Sui Lian held Gu Wan's hand and smiled softly, "Yes, let's go."
Gu Wan struggled for a moment, "I, I'd better hold your sleeve."
Sui Lian knew very well why he was so happy at the moment.
"good."
The rest of the journey was relatively smooth.
At night, Sui Lian took out a tent and a blanket from the cloth bag he carried with him. These were all prepared by Qin Yang.
Gu Wan was also tired after a day of work, so she washed up and lay down to sleep.
Sui Lian leaned against the tree next to him, holding his sword.
Gu Xing set up a barrier, patrolled around and came back when he found nothing unusual, then stood aside.
"Junior Brother Sui, why did you harbor murderous intent that day in Jincheng?"
He always felt that Sui Lian was extraordinary.
Sui Lian closed his eyes and said, "Senior Brother Gu, you must have seen it wrong. It's not true."
Gu Xing chuckled softly, "You don't seem to want to marry Gu Wan, do you? She doesn't know how to practice cultivation, and more importantly, you don't like her either."
Sui Lian rubbed the hilt of the sword with his thumb, "Whether I marry Gu Wan or not has nothing to do with whether she can practice cultivation or whether she likes me or not."
After he finished speaking, he opened his eyes and looked directly at Gu Xing, with no trace of sarcasm in his eyes.
"Senior Brother Gu treats Gu Wan just like this, so why bother pretending to care about her so much?"
Gu Xing shook his head mockingly and said nothing more. There must be other reasons. Sui Lian was very surprised. He needed to go to Jincheng again.
Gu Wan couldn't fall asleep. She found their conversation quite interesting. In the end, the two became close friends. After the demise of the Quanxu Sect, they became famous all over the world for a while.
We continued our journey the next day, but met Chen Liang and Qi Ronger at noon.
Chen Liang was also injured, his arm was wrapped in cloth and his face was pale.
Gu Wan walked over with a frown, "Fellow Daoist Chen, why are you injured so badly?" As he spoke, he took out some medicine from his ring, and classified them into some for replenishing vital energy and some for stopping bleeding.
Sui Lian half-knelt down to check his pulse, "It should be a spirit beast in the Golden Core Stage."
Qi Ronger nodded quickly, "Friend Sui is right. We thought we could take him down with just two people. Senior Brother was injured trying to save me."
Gu Wan passed the pills to Chen Liang's lips and said, "These are all top-quality pills, brought from my Uncle Li. Don't worry."
Chen Liang took the pill and sat there to gather his energy.
Gu Wan carefully applied the external ointment to him. The bite looked very serious, with the bone immediately exposed.
Qi Ronger's training had been going very smoothly in the past two months. She had never experienced such a big thing before, and her eyes became red.
Gu Xing discovered that Gu Wan, who usually looked delicate, was actually very calm.
Sui Lian was not familiar with them, so he didn't say much.
It was just the right time for Chen Liang to heal his wounds, so they sat down and rested.
Gu Xing saw that Gu Wan seemed to be looking for something, so he walked up and handed her the bamboo tube.
Gu Wan looked up at him, slowly took the bamboo tube, turned around without saying a word, and sat quietly aside, holding her chin and looking intently at the campfire in front of her.
Sui Lian also noticed the strangeness between the two of them. He knew Gu Xing's situation. Since he came to Quanxu Sect, he had thought about cooperating with Gu Xing, but the time was not right yet.
Qi Ronger quietly looked at Sui Lian and Gu Xing through the fireworks. They were completely different from the first time she met them. It was obvious that something had changed between them.
After Chen Liang finished his treatment, he felt much better. He stood up and walked to Gu Wan, clasped his fists, bowed, and expressed his gratitude.
"Thank you Miss Gu for the pills."
Gu Wan smiled and shook her head, "It's just a small favor. Besides, we've met before and have had the intention of cooperating."
Chen Liang also laughed. He felt much better now.
The two teams reached an agreement and set off together.
Along the way, the cultivation of several people has improved to varying degrees.
Qi Ronger had a different perception of Sui Lian. He was a true genius, his swordsmanship was very skillful, and he was already in the Golden Core stage. It was just a bit of a waste to be with Gu Wan.
Gu Wan found that the plot was really powerful, and Qi Ronger was still interested in Sui Lian.
On the tenth day in the trial field, they experienced the first level that tested their willpower, and several of them were separated.
Gu Wan knew that this level was set up by the master who had not been seen for a long time. The next question would be revealed based on the choices made by different challengers.
When Gu Wan experienced the illusion level, there was no illusion at all. She had no desires or demands, and no confusion in her heart. When she answered the last question, the fog in front of her eyes dissipated, and she knew that she had passed the level. She just didn't expect to be the first to complete it. She had no desires or obsessions in her heart, and the questions in it could not cause any harm to her.
Sui Lian was trapped by the illusion in front of him. It was the tragic scene of the day when his entire mansion was destroyed. He couldn't stop it even if he tried his best.
The scene changed and he found himself an adult. He took the sword and stabbed towards Gu Qingsong, but Gu Wan suddenly appeared and blocked his way.
"A Lian, please, let my father go, okay? Kill me to avenge me."
Sui Lian's eyes were full of hatred. He didn't love this woman. Everything he did was just to gain Gu Qingsong's trust. He stabbed her hard, and then the game was over.
Sui Lian's forehead was covered with sweat. Deep down in his heart, he had made a choice for himself. In the end, he would not choose Gu Wan.
Gu Wan saw him and ran over. "A Lian, did you pass the level? Why are you sweating so much?"
She took out her handkerchief and wiped his forehead.
Sui Lian looked at Gu Wan in front of him. It would be soon. Gu Wan had already fallen in love with him, and Gu Qingsong would slowly believe in himself.
Qi Ronger was trapped in an illusion.
That day, the person who was forced to marry the rich man Sun as his concubine downstairs was Gu Wan, who was standing upstairs of the inn, leaning on the railing and smiling happily.
She wants to be Gu Wan.
"No, how could that be?" She muttered to herself and the fog in front of her eyes dissipated. She looked up and saw Gu Wan standing on tiptoe to wipe the sweat off Sui Lian's face. She panicked and looked away.
Sui Lian held Gu Wan's hand and said, "It's okay."
After a while, Gu Xing and Chen Liang also came out of the illusion.
But Gu Xing's face looked very abnormal, and he took a long time to recover.
Chen Liang was fine, so he walked to Gu Wan's side.
"Did Miss Gu also enter the illusion?"
Gu Wan nodded. She felt that Chen Liang was a man of open mind. She was willing to communicate with him and they could be friends.
Chen Liang exclaimed, "So ordinary people also experience this. But Miss Gu came out so early, it must be different from us."
Gu Wan pursed her lips and smiled, "What do you mean?"
Chen Liang sighed twice. "I just saw the glorious future of the Tiansha Sect in my illusion. That's what I've always wanted, so I think everyone should have the same idea. But Miss Gu came out so quickly, so she definitely doesn't have any worldly thoughts."
Gu Wan hummed, "Indeed, there is nothing in my illusion. It is blurry."
When Gu Xing heard this, he turned to look at her, then looked away.
Sui Lian was just a little hesitant, but only for a moment.
Chen Liang hadn’t communicated much with Gu Wan before and thought she was a girl with no substance, but now it seems that’s not entirely true.
"Miss Gu has a deep heart, I admire her."
Gu Wan felt that her judgment of people was still very accurate.
By the fifteenth day, their level challenges became increasingly difficult.
This level is a trapped beast at the Nascent Soul level. Large sects like the Quanxu Sect send disciples to the foot of the mountain every year to capture some spiritual beasts that harm ordinary people. If they cannot be educated, they will be trapped and taken out for trials by disciples on occasions like this. Their name will also change from spiritual beast to trapped beast.
Sui Lian and the others gathered together to discuss how to deal with this spirit beast.
Gu Wan stood by the tree and observed it. It was a poisonous centipede, and they probably wouldn't be able to deal with it.
"While fighting it, find its fatal spot. We attack from different directions. Remember to pay attention to the needle-like things on its hind legs. They contain venom."
Sui Lian drew a picture for everyone.
Chen Liang looked at Sui Lian and really understood why Master Gu had betrothed Miss Gu to him. The two of them were indeed a perfect match.
After finishing the formation here, Sui Lian walked to Gu Wan's side and said, "Stand a little further away. If we can't control it, send out a distress signal."
Gu Wan nodded obediently, "Okay, you have to be careful."
Sui Lian reached out and touched her head, "I will." Then he turned away.
Gu Wan found a distant place, sat on a tree and watched, and took out a piece of cake from the ring.
Four people launched an attack from four directions.
The centipede was very ferocious, but we were able to achieve a relatively equal situation and could barely be considered to have subdued it.
But Qi Ronger was suddenly attacked.
Sui Lian and Gu Xing looked at each other.
Gu Xing tacitly controlled Sui Lian's position.
Sui Lian rushed over to help.
Qi Ronger watched as he was shot down.
Sui Lian reached out and caught her, allowing her to land safely. However, he also discovered the centipede's fatal point and made a gesture to Gu Xing. After spending more than ten days together, they had some basic tacit understanding.
Gu Xing understood instantly.
Qi Ronger also quickly drew his sword again and went over to help.
An hour and a half later, they finally worked together to defeat the centipede in the Nascent Soul stage. The reward this time was a set of advanced mental skills.
There is no need for Gu Xing to follow Lian.
Chen Liang was very happy. "Then I will respectfully obey your command. Thank you, Fellow Daoist Gu. I will follow you."
Qi Rong'er pursed her lips, walked to Sui Lian's side and bowed like a girl, "Thank you, Senior Brother Sui, for saving me just now."
Sui Lian didn't notice anything and just nodded.
Gu Wan had just finished her second piece of cake and came trotting over. "Are you okay? I'm holding the signal tightly in my hand."
Sui Lian nodded, his tone very gentle, "Don't be afraid, it's okay."
Gu Xing originally wanted to say something to her, but seeing her like this, he didn't say anything else.
Qi Ronger cried out, "Senior Brother Gu, are you injured?"
Gu Wan turned her head and saw that the clothes on his arm had been cut into a big hole and blood was dripping down.
Gu Xinglue frowned and said, "Nothing." He seemed a little annoyed by Qi Ronger's sudden surprise.
Gu Wan walked over, lifted his arm, pulled him to sit aside, and silently took out the medicine bottle.
"Take it orally." Put the pill in the palm of his hand.
Then he lowered his head and took the external medicine, first wiped the wound on his arm clean bit by bit, and then sprinkled the medicine on it.
"It will hurt, bear with it."
Gu Xing took the pill and looked at Gu Wan who was busy applying medicine for him, with a slight smile on his face. He had inflicted this injury on purpose.
Gu Wan tied a cloth around his neck and said, "The wound is very deep, don't move easily."
Gu Xing nodded obediently.
Gu Wan was a little angry and glared at him. "Can you be more careful? Why do you get hurt so often? I know very well why Daddy punished you. You are not that kind of person. You did it on purpose in that competition, didn't you? You deliberately hit me so that Daddy could see you and then punish you."
Gu Xing had never seen Gu Wan lose her temper like this, except when she just entered the trial field to follow Lian.
"Are you angry?"
Gu Wan took a deep breath, said nothing more, stood up and left.
Sui Lian and the other three were attracted by the noise.
Qi Ronger knew Gu Xing's background and also knew that they seemed to be incompatible as siblings.
Gu Xing watched Gu Wan leave angrily, but he felt at ease in his heart.
Chen Liang just felt a little strange.
Gu Wan didn't speak to Gu Xing the whole way. People like Gu Xing didn't care how cruelly they attacked her as long as they could achieve their goals.
He just wanted to prove that he cared about him, that's all. In fact, she couldn't conquer Gu Xing from the perspective of family affection, because she didn't understand it either. She could only use the old method to figure out people's hearts and analyze the pros and cons. Fortunately, the process seemed to be going smoothly at the moment.
