Above all spirits

Chapter 63 Licking the dog A Lin

"elder brother!"

"Son!"

At the entrance to the fourth floor of Zuixianju, the two walked hand in hand toward Gu Yun.

"It's over. The biggest behind-the-scenes figures of Fengyue Pavilion are at most these two people. You've avenged half of your village's grievances. The rest will naturally be taken care of by someone else."

"Thank you brother!"

Bai Qing'er skipped and raised her other hand to hold Gu Yun's finger.

Children can never suppress their joy, and even if they don't say it, it's easily felt in their behavior.

The three people stood side by side, holding hands, looking just like a family.

Seeing this, Hongxiu couldn't help but blush a little.

However, she understood that it was impossible for her to have any future with the young master.

Let's not even talk about whether my broken body is qualified to serve the young master.

Take the young master for example. In his eyes, she had almost never seen any hint of romantic love for a woman.

The woman's intuition told her that either the young master, being a demon, was incapable of having a relationship with people of different races, or that demons themselves were incapable of love.

Or perhaps the young master's heart has already been given to someone, and there is no room for a third person to enter.

However, she didn't care about any of that. She only hoped for an opportunity to stand before the young master and fight for him.

Hongxiu pursed her lips.

"Thank you, young master, for avenging me and our forgotten village. I have no way to repay you."

"It's alright. If you really want to repay me, then fight for your strength and stand before me."

"Yes!"

A resolute glint flashed in Hongxiu's eyes. Whether it was for the young master or for herself, in this dog-eat-dog world, strength was everything.

"By the way, young master, you just said someone took over, is it...?"

"Of course it's me."

Before anyone knew it, the man in white was already standing behind Hongxiu, smiling as he spoke.

Thinking she was blocking Gu Yun's view, Hongxiu quickly let go of Bai Qing'er's hand, straightened her clothes, and retreated behind Gu Yun.

The man in white bowed slightly to Gu Yun, his face showing deep respect.

"Your Excellency Demon, please allow me to reintroduce myself. My name is Ji Ning. I am a junior member of the Ji family from the Canglan Imperial Capital who is away on a training mission. I am also the person hired by Zuixianju in Lanyu City to keep order and act as Zuixianju's representative in this area."

"If I said I didn't know what Fengyue Pavilion was doing, that would be disrespectful to you. Before, Lin Tianyu was in charge of the Lin family, but now that he's gone, the Lin family is just a disorganized mess. I'm happy to do the rest for you."

Gu Yun gave a cold laugh.

"Don't make it sound so high and mighty, 'to serve me'?"

"The Lin family is now a big piece of meat."

"The longer it drags on, the more predators will be watching."

Ji Ning's eyes trembled slightly, and cold sweat began to seep from her back.

My little scheme has been exposed.

You should know that this devil in front of him can manipulate him like he's playing with clay.

"Your Excellency is too kind. How could we dare? Zui Xian Ju will certainly offer a reward that will satisfy Your Excellency. We wonder what Your Excellency is interested in? We will do our best to provide it."

Gu Yun held up two fingers.

"Most things in this world are useless to me, so you don't need to be so nervous. My request is very simple."

"First, help me find an iron of the same material as the silver-black dagger I used earlier. Just prepare anything you think is similar, and I will judge it myself. There's no rush."

"Secondly, do you have a map of the human star system here, or a teleportation array to Crimson Flame Star?"

"If you agree, I will allow you, or rather, allow Zuixianju to use my identity to take the first cut into the Lin family's cake."

Ji Ning thought about it carefully and nodded decisively.

"Of course, I will contact the headquarters of Zuixianju to inform them of the situation here and find the same type of iron for you."

Although he had no hope, given his high starting point in terms of growth and experience, he had never even heard of iron that could change shape at will.

This demon must have brought it from their own world.

"As for the map and teleportation array you mentioned, Drunken Immortal Abode can provide them for you. It just so happens that this year's Star Realm Martial Arts Tournament is being held on Crimson Flame Star. If you don't mind, you can come with us."

Gu Yun was somewhat surprised, because Su Xiaoqian had no memory of this conference.

This girl, could it be...?

"how long?"

"Two weeks later."

Gu Yun nodded.

"That's fine, I can go with you."

"Oh, I almost forgot."

Gu Yun vanished from everyone's sight in a flash, leaving Bai Qing'er stunned and pinching the air.

Before Hongxiu and Ji Ning could react...

Gu Yun then reappeared carrying a ragged man.

"I almost forgot about you. Who are you to them? Don't think you can get away with playing dead."

Lin Ping, tears streaming down his face, clasped his hands together and begged Gu Yun for mercy.

It seems that playing dead in front of a true powerhouse is useless.

“My lord, although I am a member of the Lin family, I am not really familiar with them. I... I swear, I have absolutely no connection with Fengyue Pavilion.”

"I...I...I left the Lin family a long time ago to make a living in the Canglan capital. I just came back these past two days."

Gu Yun kept staring at him coldly.

Lin Ping trembled slightly.

"Really...really."

Seeing that Lin Ping was not lying, Gu Yun said calmly.

What are you coming back for?

Lin Ping looked embarrassed, and his voice was a little weak.

"That's right, I've reached a bottleneck on my own... I want to see if there's anyone in my family who can help."

"I recently became a disciple of the Second Prince of the Empire, and then... I have an entrance exam spot for Wentian Academy... I'd like to use it in exchange."

Gu Yun raised an eyebrow and turned to look at Ji Ning.

"Is Wentian Academy very powerful?"

Ji Ning nodded, maintaining a respectful expression.

"Yes, Your Majesty. Wentian Academy is the best academy in the entire Canglan Empire, or even the entire Canglan Star. All graduates are at least at the Overlord Body level, and even the entrance exam slots are extremely precious."

“Your Majesty, I think this brother is not lying. The royal family does have quite a few places available for the entrance exams, and they occasionally allocate them to their own disciples.”

Gu Yun seemed to be deep in thought, glancing at Hongxiu and then at Lin Ping.

Lin Ping sensed with alarm that a tremendous opportunity was about to arrive.

Having worked in the capital for many years, how could one not notice the meaning in these small details?

If he can't even see this, what merit or ability does he have to curry favor with... ugh! Climb up to the mountain of a prince?

The person in front of us might be even more powerful than the prince!

It doesn't matter who you lick, it's still licking.

Besides!

This behemoth, capable of easily defeating Lin Tianyu, a seventh-level Saint Body cultivator, is something others can only dream of!

This is a stroke of luck!!

"If... if you need anything, I'll take care of the Wentian Academy!"

"I promise to make sure everything is arranged perfectly for the adults."

"Please let me know if there's anything else I can do for you!"

"Dedicate yourself to the end of your life and die!"

He even gave a salute, completely oblivious to the fact that he was still being held in the air.

Werner, Hongxiu, and Ji Ning: Simps!
