However, despite all the thoughts in Xue Wen's mind, he still had a good impression of Gu Miao, especially the surprise that Gu Miao naturally showed, which made Xue Wen feel warm in his heart.
"Brother Gu, as the saying goes, we never meet again in life, it seems that you and I are really destined!" Although Xue Wen was thinking about Liao Kai and others at this time, he still said to Gu Miao with a smile on his face and cupped his fists, never letting Gu Miao Miao felt left out.
"Brother Xue, come on, let me introduce you to some friends!"
"This..." Xue Wenwen wanted to refuse, but Gu Miao didn't give him a chance. He stepped forward and held his hand, pulling him to the front of the more than a hundred casual cultivators.
Pointing at several of the men and women, he introduced them to Xue Wen one by one. The cultivation levels of these casual cultivators highlighted by Gu Miao are indeed quite good, and they have all reached the realm of ninth-grade human immortals. But his expression was a bit arrogant. When facing Xue Wen, his expression was either cloudy or sunny. It looked like Xue Wen had taken advantage of them, which made Xue Wen lose his appetite in an instant.
"Brother Gu, I still have important matters to attend to. Why don't we talk about it some other time?" Xue Wen said apologetically.
"Brother Xue, since we meet again today, I still hope you can..."
Xue Wen was unwilling to join Gu Miao's team before, and now he was even more reluctant after seeing those pieces of information. Before Gu Miao could finish his words, Xue Wen said directly, "Brother Gu, please don't embarrass Xue anymore." Sorry, Xue really has something unspeakable..."
"Brother, what are you doing? Even if you appreciate me, you can't rush me like this, as if we are asking for help." Gu Xuan was full of opinions about Xue Wenwen. Seeing Xue Wen reject Gu Xue again Miao was even more angry. She gave Xue Wen a hard look and said to Gu Miao dissatisfied.
"That's right! Brother Gu, I only joined in because of your face. Our strength is not strong to begin with. If we recruit these burdensome people again, then when we enter the Ancient Immortal Secret Mansion, we will only take care of them. If you don't come here, how can you expect to gain anything?" As soon as Gu Xuan finished speaking, someone stood up from the crowd and responded.
Among the people Gu Miao introduced to Xue Wen grandly, this person was one of them. Xue Wen remembered that his name seemed to be Zheng Hong or something. At this moment, a pair of eyes almost rolled to the sky, full of disdain and contempt for Xue Wen.
Xue Wen sighed. There were not a few people like him among the casual cultivators. Because they are helpless, casual cultivators are bullied by the disciples of the sect. In front of the disciples of the sect, they are like pugs. This kind of depression, they often get rid of this depression with their own interests in other people who are also helpless like them. On the loose cultivators who were helpless but weaker than them. Although this kind of behavior is abominable, in Xue Wen's view, it is more pitiful.
"A burden? Who the hell do you think is a burden?"
Wang Qing had a bad temper. He couldn't stand this kind of person in the past, and it was even more so now. With a stick in his neck, he faced Zheng Hong.
"Presumptuous! Do you know who you are talking to?" Zheng Hong's face suddenly became serious.
Wang Qing chuckled and said, "I'm sorry, I really don't know what kind of bird you are!"
"Brother Zheng, why are you being polite to such a reckless person? Why don't you teach him a lesson? It's best that he never forgets it for the rest of his life!" Gu Xuan was worried that she couldn't find anything to embarrass Xue Wen. Opportunity, now eager to add fuel to the fire.
The effect was really good, Zheng Hong's face immediately became filled with murderous aura. In fact, Zheng Hong joined this team not only to take advantage of Gu Miao, but also to take advantage of his father, the young and pretty Gu Xuan, which interested him even more. Gu Xuan said this, how could he not take the opportunity to show off in front of the beautiful woman
"Boy, kneel down and die!" Zheng Hong immediately pulled out his sword and looked at Wang Qing as if he were looking at a dead person.
"Wait!"
Seeing that Zheng Hong was about to start a fight with Wang Qing, Gu Miao quickly stepped forward and drank him down.
"We are all casual cultivators and we should work together. How can we kill each other? Isn't it enough that those sect disciples bully us? Do we also want to make them laugh?"
Although Gu Miao is young, he really has a noble demeanor, and his words are even more righteous, which makes Xue Wen even a little moved.
"Wang Qing, come back!"
Seeing that Wang Qing had stepped out, Xue Wen opened his mouth and called him back.
"Brother Gu, you don't know, some people will never learn to behave well unless they are taught a lesson!" Wang Qing obeyed Xue Wen's words, but Zheng Hong was a little disapproving of Gu Miao's words, and still Staring at Wang Qing coldly.
Gu Miao's face suddenly turned ugly, and her voice became gloomy and solemn: "Brother Zheng, so you are not willing to give me this face?"
Upon hearing what Gu Miao said, something was wrong. Zheng Hong put away his sword sharply and said to Wang Qing, "Boy, you're lucky! You'll have a better time if I run into you next time!"
Wang Qing had heard such harsh words many times, so how could he take it to heart? Not even bothering to refute, he just gave up with a sneer.
Xue Wen looked at Gu Miao apologetically and said, "Brother Gu, you have good intentions, but the result is a bit unpleasant. Please forgive me! My friend may be in danger at this time, please forgive me for not accompanying him for a while."
"Wait a minute, Brother Xue's friend is my Gu Miao's friend. I'm going with Brother Xue!"
Unexpectedly, Gu Miao was not only majestic, but also full of enthusiasm. She said this without hesitation.
It can be seen that Gu Miao is completely sincere, not pretending, let alone acting. Xue Wen feels more and more that this friend is worth making. I even had the idea of introducing Gu Miao to Wandong. I always felt that someone like Gu Miao would be very suitable for Wandong's temper!
"Brother, why are you asking for trouble!" Gu Xuan was unwilling and complained unceremoniously.
Gu Miao ignored him, just looked up at Xue Wendao and said, "Brother Xue, I wonder where your friend is now?"
Xue Wenwen originally wanted to refuse, but a sudden thought in his heart made him change his mind. He decided to try Gu Miao again. He pointed to the courtyard surrounded by people and said, "It's right there."
Gu Miao followed Xue Wen's gesture and looked, her face changed immediately, and she said solemnly, "Brother Xue means, your friend is someone who lives in that courtyard?"
"Exactly!" Xue Wen nodded.
Gu Miao's expression was a little bitter, and she shook her head repeatedly and said, "Brother Xue, your friend was so careless that he provoked someone from the Jinguang Sect. Now he is in trouble!"
"You mean those people around are from the Jinguang Sect?" Xue Wen also frowned.
Not long ago, they killed Zhu Lie of Jin Guang Sect, but they didn't expect to face Jin Guang Sect again so soon. This time it saves him from overthinking. Anyway, the two sides have already formed a blood feud, so he can just go on a killing spree.
"Hmph! Your friend is really stupid! Since Jin Guangzong has taken a liking to their courtyard, they can just hand it over quickly. They have to refute Jin Guangzong's face. Now they are surrounded, then There are only two words - deserve it!" Zheng Hong's face was full of gloating, and his words were extremely sarcastic. The last sentence of "deserved" made Xue Wen's expression change, and Wang Qing and others did not. After saying that, everyone's eyes were glaring with anger, and they wanted to rush up and dig out his tongue!
"Zheng Hong, I don't agree with what you say! Should we swallow our anger in the face of bullying by others? Casual cultivators are also sons and daughters, so why do those sect disciples dare to bully us at will? Firstly, Because we are too weak and always swallow our anger, and secondly, because we are not united and have a cold heart! This makes them unscrupulous!”
Before Xue Wen and the others could speak, Gu Miao scolded Zheng Hong. But even though his words made sense, Zheng Hong didn't hear them at all. He curled his lips and said, "Anyway, Jin Guangzong and I, Zheng Hong, can't afford to offend Jin Guangzong. If anyone wants to offend Jin Guangzong by saving some people who don't want to do it, then just go ahead. Brother Gu, I still have things to deal with. Take one step first, wait until the entrance to the Ancient Immortal Secret Mansion is revealed, and then I will return to the team!"
"you… "
Zheng Hong didn't give Gu Miao a chance to continue persuading him. He said those words, patted his butt and left. Originally, Zheng Hong wanted to stay and see how Xue Wen was dealt with by the Jin Guangzong people, but he was worried that Gu Miao would have to go through this muddy water and drag him into the water, so he simply suppressed his curiosity and really left. Got it!
Seeing Zheng Hong leaving quickly, Gu Miao couldn't help but show a trace of anger on her face. But what he didn't expect was that Zheng Hong was just the beginning. Before his people had gone far, people began to accuse Gu Miao and leave. Some even slipped away quietly. When Gu Miao came back to his senses, there was no one left among the hundreds of casual cultivators he had gathered with all his efforts except him and Gu Xuan. Even if Gu Xuan stayed, her face would be full of complaints, and her eyes towards Xue Wen would look like she was about to shoot a knife.
"Brother Gu, it seems that these people you summoned do not really want to follow you."
It was a rare opportunity to have such an opportunity. Before entering the Ancient Immortal Secret Mansion, these people showed their ugly faces. Xue Wen quickly took the opportunity to say to Gu Miao, hoping that he would be alert and be wary of these people.
"Don't slander me here! Of course they really want to follow my brother, but they are not willing to die for you!" Gu Xuan rolled her eyes at Xue Wen, then looked at Gu Miao in annoyance, and said, "Brother, What's so good about these people that you want to lower yourself and put your hot face on their cold buttocks?"
"Shut up! Is there any girl who speaks so freely?"
Gu Miao first scolded Gu Xuan, and then said to Xue Wen apologetically, "It's not easy for casual cultivators to grow up. Zheng Hong and the others are just too cautious and too scared. Brother Xue, don't be offended."
Xue Wen shook his head helplessly and said with a wry smile, "Brother Gu, you are not offended, so why should I be offended? Besides, your sister's words still make sense..."
"How can she be a little girl who doesn't understand anything? Brother Xue, don't pay attention to her! Well, I had an encounter with Zuo Fei of Jinguang Sect, so I'll go talk to him. That location is perfect The courtyard will definitely not be saved, but I think he will let Brother Xue’s friends go for my sake.” (To be continued)
