Chapter 59

The Unshakeable Clingy Thing

Something is wrong!

Something's definitely not right!

Su Yi looked at Gu Wanquan following behind her, feeling completely numb.

Since the competition last night, Gu Wanquan has been like his shadow.

Wherever Su Yi went, Gu Wanquan followed.

"Wan Quan, are you alright?" Su Yi asked Gu Wan Quan for the nineteenth time.

"I'm fine, senior brother," Gu Wanquan said, shaking his head with a bright smile.

"Why do you keep following me if there's nothing wrong?"

"I'm only following you because I have nothing else to do!"

Is it possible that, actually, you're both in trouble, and I'm in trouble too?

"I'm fine, senior brother. If anything happens to you, I'll help you!"

"That's alright then..."

Did I overact yesterday and really get the other person involved? Gu Wanquan didn't say what he wanted to do; he just followed behind Su Yi.

Wherever you go, I'll follow.

Su Yi suddenly felt a pang of anxiety. Could it be that Gu Wanquan had discovered her superb acting skills?

Is the other party just playing with me like a cat playing with a mouse?

She turned back to look at Gu Wanquan, still feeling uneasy.

Dressed in white, Gu Wanquan was handsome yet gentle, and his standard smile was bright and approachable.

When Su Yi saw the low-grade spirit sword that she had given away the night before hanging at Gu Wanquan's waist, her tense heart couldn't help but relax.

Since the gift was accepted, it proves that the other party did not discover my flaws.

Who in this world would accept a gift and then not do anything about it?

Isn't that animalistic?

After washing the dishes, Su Yi sat on a stone bench in the courtyard, and Gu Wanquan sat down next to her.

"Wan Quan, you're really stronger than me now, I really can't beat you!" Su Yi said helplessly, continuing to state the facts.

"I know, senior brother!" The other person's smile remained bright, but only heaven knew how much he truly believed him.

Looking at Gu Wanquan, who remained unmoved by reason, Su Yi had a feeling that this cunning and treacherous man was plotting a new scheme to harm her.

  

Fortunately, I am about to be promoted to the inner sect and become an inner disciple of the Luoxia Immortal Sect.

At least until Gu Wanquan is promoted to the inner sect, I can stay away from this chosen one!

Speaking of the inner disciples of the Luoxia Immortal Sect, Su Yi couldn't help but recall the novel "Immortal Path" from before her transmigration.

Although the Luoxia Immortal Sect was destroyed by Gu Wanquan at the very beginning.

The various grotto-heavens also declined from their peak, but the conditions for recruiting inner disciples of the major immortal sects remained strict.

Of the hundreds of millions of players worldwide, only a handful have joined the inner sect.

Players who join the inner sect seem to be on a different level from other players overnight.

Su Yi also knew several players who had joined the inner sect. Since joining the inner sect, they had rarely replied to messages or met in person.

But the game time kept getting longer and longer, clearly indicating that he wanted to distance himself from Su Yi.

When asked what happened, the response is often just a simple sentence:

"You haven't even entered the inner circle, so you wouldn't understand even if I explained it to you!"

Damn it, playing a game makes you act like you've gotten out of trouble, and you even look down on people like that?

It's like a "strict father in college" who goes on to get a bachelor's degree and then forgets his roots in the blink of an eye!

Later in the game, Su Yi joined the Empress's faction, and the players who had joined the inner sect began to frantically try to win her favor.

Like sharks smelling blood, they all rushed forward with great enthusiasm.

To this, Su Yi simply replied with a cold and aloof tone:

"You've never been a lackey, so you wouldn't understand even if I told you!"

Now that she was about to enter the inner sect, Su Yi couldn't help but sigh at the impermanence of life.

Now it's my turn to be the strict father!

Unfortunately, I'm the only player in the entire world right now.

Just as Su was pondering, the wooden door of the courtyard was pushed open.

Senior Brother Chen Feng, who had taken great care of Su Yi since she joined the sect, walked in.

Upon entering the courtyard, Chen Feng saw the two people sitting there and couldn't help but laugh: "I thought it would take a lot of effort to find you, but I didn't expect you to be sitting right here in the courtyard!"

"Did you get wind of my arrival?" Chen Feng raised an eyebrow at Su Yi and asked.

Upon seeing Chen Feng enter, Su Yi immediately remembered something and hurriedly poured 75 low-grade spirit stones from her storage bag onto the stone table.

Su Yi pointed to the spirit stones on the table and said to Chen Feng with a smile, "Senior Brother Chen, these are the 70 low-grade spirit stones I lent you. I was just saying I'd bring them to you when I had time, but I haven't seen you these past few days!"

This is Su Yi's biggest creditor right now. Because of his lack of experience points, Su Yi, who was almost going bald from worry before the competition, had no choice but to ask this Senior Brother Chen for help.

Unexpectedly, this Senior Brother Chen was very generous. He only asked me to wait a moment, and then delivered 70 low-grade spirit stones to me in just one afternoon!

These seventy low-grade spirit stones were also the key to his ability to defeat Gu Wanquan through spending money!

Gu Wanquan lost to himself in the competition, partly because he was outmaneuvered by Su Yi, and partly because he was outmaneuvered by the money he spent on in-game purchases!

No matter how talented you are, you still have to bow down when you encounter a whale (someone who spends a lot of money on in-game purchases).

This is an eternal truth!

Looking at Su Yi's bright smile with her peach blossom eyes, Chen Feng inexplicably hoped that this junior brother would never be able to repay these spirit stones.

To win first place in the outer sect competition with such amazing strength.

Su Yi in front of us has probably already been valued by the sect leader, and may become the sect leader's personal disciple at any time!

Although Gu Wanquan lost to Su Yi, Chen Feng, who was at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage, could tell at a glance that among all the outer sect disciples, Gu Wanquan, who always had a smile on his face, only lost to Su Yi.

It's a pity that he ran into Su Yi in the first round, otherwise he would have definitely come in second place.

Sometimes luck is also a part of strength, and it seems that this junior brother Gu is not so lucky!

Putting aside his thoughts, Chen Feng looked at the two and couldn't help but let out a soft exclamation: "Junior brothers, you've already reached the Foundation Establishment stage?"

Holy crap, this is outrageous! Aren't we all supposed to be geniuses?

I broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage when I was twenty, and the two of them are only sixteen or seventeen now, right?

Does the practice last for two months?

Is this the Foundation Establishment stage?

Does that mean that in another year, he might catch up with me?

Chen Feng's heart trembled violently. Although he was always shocked every time he saw the two of them, the way he was shocked was different each time!

Suppressing his shock and bitterness at his own mediocrity, Chen Feng forced a smile and said, "Since you've already reached the Foundation Establishment stage, there's no need for me to waste any more effort. Shall I take you both into the inner sect to complete the entry procedures today?"

"The two of you?" Su Yi was taken aback and looked at Gu Wanquan, who returned a bright smile.

Only then did Su Yi realize that the Luoxia Immortal Sect had a rule that those who broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage before the age of twenty had a chance to enter the inner sect.

For others, it's a matter of probability, but for Gu Wanquan, the chosen one of this version, isn't it a sure thing?

Su Yi's heart sank. She had originally thought that after entering the inner sect, she could at least hide from the limelight for a few more days.

Unexpectedly, it turned into a one-on-one solo meeting between me and Gu Wanquan!

This version's son is really troublesome, like a piece of chewing gum that you can't shake off!
