Chapter 191 He is a brick
"Junior Sister Xie, what are we going to do now?" Gu Yan asked Xie Wan'er.
Since Gu Yan moved into the Palace of Heartbreak, the female disciples there have all called him "Junior Sister Lin." They all call him "Junior Sister," so he feels a bit distant calling him "Fellow Daoist." Therefore, he starts calling all the female disciples of the Palace of Heartbreak "Senior Sister" or "Uncle-Master."
"There's no mission. I just secretly brought you out to have some fun." Xie Wan'er winked playfully at Gu Yan.
Gu Yan: "..."
She hurriedly pulled him out, and he thought there was some kind of mission coming up again. It turned out she was just taking him out to play?
Ever since Gu Yan recovered from his injuries, the female disciples of the Heartless Palace have been eager to ask him for help with everything. Lu Huanong hasn't given him any specific tasks; basically, anyone can pull him into doing chores. He's like a brick, moved wherever he's needed.
"You've been in the alchemy room for so long, don't you want to come out and get some fresh air?" Xie Wan'er said with a smile. Then, she complained on Gu Yan's behalf, "Senior Sister Gao is really something, making you go to alchemy for a whole month. Isn't she exploiting you every day?"
Gu Yan smiled and said, "No, Senior Sister Gao treats me very well. I've learned a lot about alchemy from her."
"Senior Sister Gao's alchemy skills are indeed very high, and I have always admired her. I'm not good at alchemy at all; nine out of ten times, I ruin the pills," Xie Wan'er said with distress.
"Alright, alright, let's not talk about this anymore. I'll take you on a few days of fun." Xie Wan'er smiled slyly. She had finally caught a chance to spend time with Young Master Gu, so she was determined to stay for a few more days before going back.
"Where do you want to go?" Xie Wan'er asked Gu Yan.
Gu Yan was actually quite eager to go out into the world, but he knew nothing about the Immortal Alliance, so he could only tell Xie Wan'er, "I've always stayed on the desolate star, and I'm not familiar with the outside world at all. I'll go wherever you take me."
Xie Wan'er smiled and said, "Then shall we go to the Spirit Realm?"
Gu Yan nodded.
It's all the same, everywhere is the same, anyway, he's never been there.
Seeing that Gu Yan had agreed, Xie Wan'er steered the immortal ship toward the teleportation array in the Void Realm.

In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.
Inside a celestial city in the ethereal realm.
The palaces, constructed from vast amounts of jade, were breathtakingly beautiful. The streets were frequented mostly by immortals, their strength ranging from True Immortal to Profound Immortal. The air here was thick with celestial energy. Gu Yan followed Xie Wan'er through the crowd. He was dressed as a woman, clad in snow-white robes. Although his face was veiled, his bearing and presence attracted considerable attention.
Xie Wan'er dragged Gu Yan to browse the shops. Xie Wan'er excitedly looked at all kinds of magical treasures, pills, talismans, etc. She picked up a lightning escape talisman and said to Gu Yan, "Junior sister, junior sister, what do you think of this lightning escape talisman? It's only fifty immortal jades, I think it's a good deal."
Gu Yan said, "Thank you, Senior Sister. If you like it, just buy it."
Xie Wan'er smiled and bought ten tickets. Then she pulled Gu Yan to other places and bought quite a few trinkets. She asked Gu Yan, "Why didn't you buy anything?"
Gu Yan said helplessly, "Senior sister, do you think I'm rich?"
He didn't have a single piece of immortal jade, so what was he going to buy? Not only did he not have any immortal jade, he was also in debt and could only work to pay it off. Fortunately, he didn't lack any magical treasures, but he had no way to sell them.
Firstly, he didn't know where his ancestors' magical treasures came from, or whether their acquisition was legitimate. Although this was the Immortal Alliance, not everyone in the Immortal Alliance was a saint, and he was afraid of getting himself killed by recklessly selling magical treasures. Secondly, he didn't want to just sell the things left behind by his ancestors, not even to other cultivators.
"Your senior sister brought you out here, how could I let you pay?" Xie Wan'er patted her chest. "If you see anything you like, just tell your senior sister, and I'll buy it for you."
Gu Yan: "I'm so sorry."
Having a woman pay for him? It makes him feel like a gigolo, which is incredibly awkward.
Xie Wan'er had saved his life before. Whether it was her, Zhou Ting, or Mulan, he had never had the chance to repay her. If he were to ask her to spend money, he would feel even more guilty.
"Oh, don't be so polite," Xie Wan'er said with a smile.
As they were talking, several people stepped into the shop. They were all dressed in fine clothes, with a pretty girl in a pink dress and a handsome man in purple robes with purple hair and eyes, holding a folding fan. The girl in pink was at the same cultivation level as Xie Wan'er, but only at the True Immortal level, while the man in purple robes was already at the Golden Immortal level.
The girl in pink had an arrogant demeanor, clearly someone with a powerful background. She and Xie Wan'er exchanged a glance, and both exclaimed in surprise, "It's you!"
Gu Yan's gaze swept back and forth between the two women. They clearly knew each other, but their relationship didn't seem very friendly.
"Xie Wan'er, I haven't settled the score with you from last time yet," the girl in pink said through gritted teeth.
Xie Wan'er snorted coldly: "Lu Yan, you defeated opponent, how come you're acting so arrogant now that someone's backing you up?"
When Xie Wan'er finished speaking, she glanced warily at the handsome man with purple hair and purple clothes. Lu Yan was the disciple of Immortal King Mu Xi, and the man next to her was her senior brother, Song Qi.
Song Qi is a Golden Immortal; if he were to make a move, she definitely wouldn't be able to defeat him. However, even if Song Qi doesn't make a move, there are several True Immortals following behind them. If they all attack together, even if Young Master Gu and she join forces, they still wouldn't be able to win.
Oh dear, what should I do?
I should have brought more people with me. Now that we've run into our enemies, it's not even convenient to fight.
Xie Wan'er was filled with regret.
Song Qi didn't look at Xie Wan'er; from the moment he entered, his eyes had been fixed on Gu Yan. In his eyes, this white-clad, veiled girl possessed an ethereal beauty. Although her face was hidden, her aura and graceful bearing were captivating enough. The eyes peeking out from behind the veil were so clear they seemed to reflect one's own soul—truly a pure and ethereal fairy.
I really want to see her face.
With Xie Wan'er, the heartless palace maid disciple?
Thinking that all the female disciples of the Heartless Palace are required to sever all emotional ties and cannot have dual cultivation partners, he thought to himself: What a pity, what a pity.
He sighed inwardly a few times, then heard Xie Wan'er's words. He laughed and said, "Junior Sister Xie, don't worry about me. Do you think I would bully someone weak?"
Although he was talking to Xie Wan'er, his gaze was still on Gu Yan, as if he was watching Gu Yan's reaction.
Lu Yan looked at Xie Wan'er with a contemptuous smile: "I don't need my senior brother to make a move; I'll defeat you myself to avenge myself. Xie Wan'er, do you dare to come out and have a match with me?"
Xie Wan'er, who had once defeated Lu Yan, and hearing Song Qi say he wouldn't make a move, loudly proclaimed, "Fine, who's afraid of who?"
Gu Yan glanced at her and transmitted her voice: Senior Sister?
Xie Wan'er gave him a reassuring look and whispered, "It's alright, it's alright. This girl is no match for me. I've beaten her several times." After beating her up, we continued our stroll.
Gu Yan: "..."
I have a feeling you're going to mess things up.
