Seeing Gu Yuan completely unworried, Lu Xue casually remarked, "Young Master, what do you plan to do then..."
"Pay him no mind."
Gu Yuan waved his hand, his expression indifferent, glanced at the lady before him, and softly said, "It is you, Xue’er, who has been by my side for over twenty years now, always forced to hide your identity due to your sect’s orders. You have truly worked hard!"
"This..."
Lu Xue looked startled, sowhat puzzled and aggrieved, "Third Young Master, I don’t quite understand what you an. I was sold to this island by my parents when I was young, and this fact is no secret to you, nor to the Isle Master. Where does this talk of hidden identity co from?"
Although spoken this way, how could Gu Yuan not perceive the lady’s tension, the slight change in her deanor, alongside her Divine Thought locking onto an item in her Storage Pouch, while True Qi began circulating within, seemingly poised to unleash a powerful strike at any mont.
Gu Yuan shook his head with a chuckle, "Xue’er, why continue to conceal? My intention is clear, and I believe you understand my words. I even know you’re a disciple of the Six Desires Demon Sect. But rest assured, I harbor no malicious intent towards you."
"Young Master, you misunderstand ; I am not a disciple of the Six Desires Demon Sect... If you doubt, I can prove it to you..."
Lu Xue’s graceful face showed a teary-eyed aggrieved expression. She was about to approach, seemingly intending to prove her identity.
Gu Yuan’s deanor remained calm, his face displaying a faint, enigmatic smile as he watched Lu Xue, who felt a rising alarm in her heart, her heartbeat quickening, a sense of intense crisis and imnse pressure enveloping her, as if facing a terrifying existence.
Such pressure, she had only felt from the Blood Cry True Master, yet even that couldn’t compare.
Faced with such a change, Lu Xue’s expression beca sowhat stiff and forced.
As she reached Gu Yuan, a silver needle appeared in her hand, thin as cow hair yet swift as lightning, aiming at Gu Yuan’s forehead.
Unfazed by the attack, Gu Yuan lifted his hand and flicked his finger.
Ding!
A crisp sound resonated as Gu Yuan’s finger flicked the silver needle, emitting a sharp note.
Thereafter, the top-tier Magical Artifact, forged with a dozen rare Spiritual Materials, was split into three segnts mid-air, falling onto the ground.
"Xue’er, I advise you to calm down, or I won’t mind teaching you a lesson."
Having done this, Gu Yuan retracted his hand, his expression calm, while Lu Xue felt chills run down her spine, akin to having a bucket of ice water poured over her, coldness spreading from head to toe.
After a mont’s silence, Lu Xue took a deep breath, calming her face, her gaze towards Gu Yuan beca filled with caution, apprehension, and fear, "Who exactly are you?!"
By now, she understood that her identity had long been exposed, further concealnt was pointless.
Gu Yuan spoke directly, without preamble, "Who I am is of no concern to you; the only thing you need to know is I have no interest in you or those behind you."
"Moreover, I know your goal but it has nothing to do with . I only hope you won’t ruin my major plans."
"What major plans?"
Lu Xue couldn’t help but ask. Though Gu Yuan spoke bluntly, she naturally wouldn’t foolishly believe him and remained on full alert.
"You are not qualified to know this."
Gu Yuan stated lightly.
Lu Xue imdiately understood, realizing the underlying ssage in Gu Yuan’s words: though she wasn’t qualified to know, the Blood Cry True Master behind her certainly was.
Furthermore, Gu Yuan clearly knew her identity yet had no intent to act against her, his real intentions were becoming clear.
"I can contact Elder Blood Cry, but what should I call you?"
After hesitating for a mont, she ultimately decided, seemingly having realized sothing, she hurriedly asked Gu Yuan.
"I go by Wang Chan."
Gu Yuan directly used a pseudonym he had adopted recently.
Wang Chan?!
Lu Xue’s face slightly changed, her eyes towards Gu Yuan filled with apprehension and shock.
"It appears you’ve heard of my na."
Seeing the reaction, Gu Yuan smiled.
"Your renown has long spread throughout the East Sea Cultivation Realm, I have naturally heard of it."
Lu Xue spoke with a dry tone, yet her heart was filled with comprehension.
Previously, at an auction held in Luofu Immortal City, nurous major figures participated, along with countless marvelous treasures. Yet the highlight wasn’t those figures or treasures, but a Golden Core Great Cultivator!
This individual was none other than a Golden Core Great Cultivator nad Wang Chan. Before this, he was obscure, unknown, rarely seen, with origins, background, and identity all shrouded in mystery.
However, following the auction, he gained overnight fa, his renown soaring!
For Wang Chan, with his Golden Core body, had ford a vendetta with a Yin God Giant, the Ku Quan Hermit; the two agreed on a Life and Death Platform Magical Battle.
Logically, a Golden Core Great Cultivator, confronting a Yin God Giant, no matter how you consider it, the outco was apparent.
The gap between a Yin God Giant and Golden Core Cultivator was akin to a vast chasm, challenging to bridge.
Even a First Grade Golden Core Great Cultivator facing a Yin God Giant might possess life-saving power, yet would flee in defeat.
But Wang Chan?!
In this Magical Battle, he not only erged victorious but did so with ease, vanquishing the Ku Quan Hermit with rely two Divine Techniques!
His capabilities evidently demonstrated at least two Great Divine Techniques mastered, a person of such caliber surely qualified for the Dragon List on the Dragon Tiger List.
Following this, the matter spread swiftly, shocking many, generating curiosity. So speculated that Wang Chan was a rare prodigy or a reincarnated figure from a powerful being or True Immortal.
Yet afterwards, Wang Chan mysteriously vanished, unattainable to all.
Unexpectedly, Wang Chan appeared on Little Iron Cloud Island, killing Xiu Yanqing, assuming his identity.
This led Lu Xue to abandon any scheming thoughts. She understood well that against other Golden Core Great Cultivators, she might have a ager chance of escape, but against Wang Chan, none whatsoever.
"Since you know , that’s all the better."
Gu Yuan smiled as he spoke, "You should know what to do next, without needing to elaborate, right?"
