With an explosion, the air trembled, and the palm of the woman in the white dress stopped just a few inches away from Xu Quan's chest.
Looking at the man in front of him, whose expression had not changed at all, and then at the purple fruits tightly clutched in his hand, the woman in the white dress clenched her teeth, but she still couldn't let go of the palm.
"you!"
She seemed to be angry at Xu Quan's "preferring to die rather than surrender", and her voice even trembled a little.
"You, are you really not afraid of death?"
"Of course I'm afraid."
Xu Quan shook his head and said in a sincere tone: "But as I said just now, I am more afraid of not being able to fulfill my promise than this."
"..."
Staring at Xu Quan, the woman in the white dress struggled in her heart.
She could see that this man could really do such a thing as "burning both jade and stone", and if the holy fruit was really destroyed...
"good......"
Seemingly taking a step back feebly, the woman in the white dress took a deep look at Xu Quan, and then walked away into the distance without looking back.
"I will trust you just once."
...
...
"Ms. Mr. Xu, Mr. Xu has returned from sending a message. Although there were some minor accidents, there was no trouble after all."
On the other side, Guanyue Inn.
When the crisis on Xu Quan's side was resolved, he immediately sent a message to Yang Liushi.
And Yang Liushi immediately told Wei Changtian about it.
The whole process can be said to be a near miss. Although the demon king was very angry, he still seemed reluctant to part with those holy fruits.
Therefore, after Wei Changtian thought about it for a while, he did not decide to "reinforce" Xu Quan. He just had a brief chat with Yang Liushi and the matter was dismissed.
As for whether to teach this disobedient demon king a lesson, that is a matter for the future, so there is no need to think too much about it for the time being.
After all, I still have a lot of things to do now.
Since Su Qi has decided to "surrender", he must meet him again.
Although the illusory formation on the old beggar's side was destroyed, the person was not dead. He would definitely try his best to cause trouble for himself in the future, so he had to plan ahead.
And those 100,000 demon soldiers.
With so many monsters, it is a big problem for me to use them in this way...
"Call Li Zimu here, let's discuss the next thing."
"Um."
"..."
Soon, Li Zimu was called into the room by Yang Liushi.
The former already knows what happened tonight.
Similarly, Wei Changtian also learned from Zhang San that it was Li Zimu who insisted on sending a message to Yang Liushi.
In this way, Li Zimu can be regarded as his indirect "savior". Logically speaking, Wei Changtian should express his gratitude to him.
But it is a "master-servant relationship" after all, so...
"Ahem, you did a good job on this matter. I will record the credit for you."
With a dry cough, Wei Changtian said in a serious tone with a leadership air: "When we get back, just tell us what you want."
"It's all what a slave should do. As long as the master has nothing to do, it'll be fine."
Li Zimu lowered his head and his tone was very sincere.
After a simple "commendation", the two of them joined Yang Liushi, and the three of them discussed the next plan together.
This process lasted for two hours, and it was already late at night when Li Zimu came out of the room.
At this moment, in addition to Wei Changtian's room, another guest room not far away was still lit with candlelight.
It was Gu Pan'er who lived there.
Such a big thing happened, and she received too much unheard and unseen information in a short period of time. She was destined to not be able to sleep tonight.
What's more, there is one more thing she hasn't told Wei Changtian...
"Miss Li, please stay..."
When she heard the door of the next room open, she hurriedly walked to the door, opened the door and called out to Li Zimu who was about to return to the house.
"Hmm? What's wrong with Sister Pan'er?"
Li Zimu walked over in a few steps and asked doubtfully: "Why are you still awake so late?"
"Oh, I'll go to bed later..."
After all, the two just met tonight. Gu Pan'er didn't explain too much to Li Zimu, but asked softly: "Master, is he going to sleep?"
"Well, it should be."
Li Zimu glanced at Gu Pan'er: "Sister Pan'er, are you looking for trouble with the young master?"
"Yes, there's a little something..."
"What's the matter? If it's not convenient for me, Sister Pan'er, you can talk to me first, and I'll ask the Young Master for you."
"this......"
A trace of blush appeared on Gu Pan'er's face, and she lowered her head in embarrassment.
"I, I want to borrow some money from the young master..."
"This is easy to talk about... huh?"
"..."
...
Early the next morning, it was Fangshi in the south of Linchuan City.
In the end, Gu Paner was able to borrow the three hundred taels of silver needed to buy the house.
After Li Zimu told Wei Changtian about this yesterday, Wei Changtian didn't pay much attention to it, but Yang Liushi on the side laughed happily.
She joked that if Xu Qingwan could be killed by Wei Changtian here, she also became more interested in Gu Pan'er.
Because of this, she insisted on dragging Wei Changtian along to buy a house with Gu Pan'er today.
Although Wei Changtian was reluctant, he couldn't resist Yang Liushi in the end. He went out with the two girls early in the morning, and not long after they arrived at the house that Gu Pan'er had chosen yesterday.
Because there was still some time before the appointment with Yaren, the three of them chatted and waited in the carriage.
While chatting, Yang Liushi suddenly smiled and said:
"Miss Gu, there is really no use for you to buy this house."
"We won't be able to stay in Daqian for long. We'll have to leave in a month or two, and we'll have to sell it again. It's not troublesome enough to come back and forth."
"..."
Yang Liu's poem seemed like an unintentional remark, but it instantly broke the harmonious atmosphere in the car.
Indeed, if Gu Paner really follows Wei Changtian, she will have to follow him back to Shu sooner or later, and the house here will naturally be of no use.
Of course, Wei Changtian is definitely not short of the cost of a mere house.
But this represents where the relationship between the two will eventually go.
If it were simpler, it would be Wei Changtian's attitude towards Gu Pan'er.
After all, Gu Paner is certainly willing to marry Wei Changtian, but Wei Changtian may not be willing to marry her.
Yang Liushi probably saw the latter's hesitation, so she made it clear at this time, which was to let Wei Changtian make a decision early to avoid hurting Gu Pan'er's heart in the future.
"I......"
On the side of the car, Gu Paner's reaction was exactly as expected.
She heard the meaning of Yang Liushi's words, and her heart suddenly rose to her throat. She was speechless and could not speak. She just looked at Wei Changtian quietly with some expectation and some uneasiness.
Wei Changtian was also stunned, glanced at Yang Liushi with a wry smile, and then asked Gu Paner softly:
"What kind of business did you plan to use this house for?"
"..."
Raising her head in confusion, Gu Pan'er didn't know why Wei Changtian suddenly asked this at this time, but she still answered truthfully in a low voice:
"I want to open a music store, which not only sells instrumental music, but also teaches people how to play music."
"Oh, that's not bad."
Wei Changtian nodded, and after a short pause, he continued with Gu Pan'er's extremely anxious eyes:
"Actually, you can also have fun in Shuzhou City."
