Gu Wenyen

"Obito? Brother Lin Yu, you know him?" Xiao Xun'er asked Lin Yu curiously after hearing his cry of surprise.

Lin Yu did not answer Xiao Xun'er. He merely frowned as he looked at the "Obito" lying in the rocking chair.

At that moment, "Obito" spoke. "You really do know about this thing!" As he spoke, "Obito" slowly removed his mask, revealing a delicate and handsome face. He was about the same age as Lin Yu!

His skin was fair, his sharply defined face exceptionally handsome. Combined with his slender limbs and lazy demeanor, he possessed a sickly sort of beauty!

The man stood up, lazily stretched, and let out a huge yawn.

Lin Yu sensed the aura emanating from him. He was no weaker than Lin Yu—perhaps even stronger. If they truly fought, the two of them might be evenly matched.

But if he drew the Asura Blood Sword, Lin Yu was confident he could defeat him!

That was what shocked Lin Yu. He had only achieved what he had today because of Xing Luo. What about this man? At such a young age, could he also possess a system like Xing Luo's?

At that moment, Xing Luo's voice rang out in Lin Yu's mind. "Big Brother, there's only one Xing Luo!"

"I know. In my heart, you are naturally one of a kind!" Lin Yu replied instinctively, not understanding what Xing Luo meant.

"Big Brother, he doesn't have a system! But he has something on him. If Big Brother absorbs it, not only will you become much stronger, even Xing Luo will become much stronger!" Xing Luo thought for a moment and did not explain. In her heart, she thought, The system only exists so you can understand me more directly. But I truly am one of a kind!

Naturally, Lin Yu knew none of this. When he heard Xing Luo say that the man before him did not have a system, he relaxed. Since he had no system, no matter how strong he was, he was still trash!

As for that thing, Lin Yu did not care much about it. He was no bandit, so he would not simply snatch it away. Even without it, becoming stronger was easy enough for him!

"Hello, I am Gu Wenyen!" The man walked up to Lin Yu and extended his slender right hand.

"Hello!" Lin Yu clasped his hand. "Lin Yu!" Lin Yu kept staring at Gu Wenyen. What had he meant just now? What did he mean by "you really do know"? Could it really be what Lin Yu suspected?

"You..."

"Don't bother guessing. It's exactly what you think!" Before Lin Yu could speak, Gu Wenyen interrupted him and confirmed the thought in his heart.

Gu Wenyen continued, "My people heard that you established a God Extermination Hall in Wutan City to govern the masses?"

Lin Yu thought about it. It was not exactly a secret. "That's right!"

"Not a bad idea. But do you think you can restrain a world where the strong prey on the weak?" Gu Wenyen asked with a smile.

Lin Yu shook his head. "I haven't thought that far ahead. Restricting them isn't my goal. My goal is simple—I only hope people can hold on to the moral bottom line in their hearts."

Gu Wenyen's eyes lit up. "You have some interesting ideas!"

"Hehe..." Lin Yu did not deny it.

"Come out! You've watched long enough. It's time you had your fill!" Gu Wenyen called lightly toward the doorway.

Xiao Xun'er and Qing Lin looked toward the door, then turned back to Lin Yu with puzzled expressions. There was no one there. Why did he say someone was watching them? Brother Lin Yu (Master), please explain.

Lin Yu ignored their burning gazes and quietly waited without making a move.

"Still not coming out?" Gu Wenyen muttered.

Then the space rippled. Gu Wenyen vanished, and only a few breaths later, his figure reappeared—this time with a woman in green clothes captured in his grasp.

"Is this Lu Man?" Lin Yu wondered as he looked at the woman in green.

This woman had been hiding in the distance ever since they entered Mo City. She was also a Dou Emperor, so she should be Lu Man!

In the original story, she was the one who took Qing Lin back to the Heavenly Serpent Mansion. Come to think of it, if she had not taken Qing Lin back to the Heavenly Serpent Mansion, Qing Lin might not necessarily have attained the strength she had in the original story!

"That's right. I didn't expect Qing Lin to follow you, yet this woman still came looking for her!" Gu Wenyen said with a smile.

Lin Yu said nothing, but inwardly thought, So what he said is true. He, Xiao Yan, and I all transmigrated here. It's just that Gu Wenyen and I know the story of this world!

"What are you talking about?" Lu Man was somewhat bewildered by Gu Wenyen's words.

They knew me? Who was Qing Lin? That little girl? Then how did they know my purpose? It seemed White Fang's senses had been right. That girl should be the one with the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils!

But I could barely protect myself right now! Why was the man who captured me so strong? I was captured the instant we exchanged blows, without any ability to resist. Since when did the Jama Empire have such a figure?

Qing Lin was also full of confusion. Why had this suddenly involved her? Could it be... could she have come to capture her?

Qing Lin tugged on Lin Yu's sleeve and looked at him questioningly.

Lin Yu turned and smiled faintly. "I'll tell you later!"

Qing Lin obediently nodded and quietly watched what was happening.

"You'd best not think about taking this girl away! Her master may still have some favorable feelings toward you right now, but if you truly try to take her away by force, I believe her master will kill you without hesitation!" Gu Wenyen narrowed his eyes, crouched down, and spoke softly into Lu Man's ear.

Lu Man's entire body trembled. Her face flushed all the way to her ears, and she squeezed her eyes shut.

"Eek~"

Gu Wenyen: ???

Lin Yu: ???

Xiao Xun'er: ???

Qing Lin: (ω`)

How embarrassing! To show such a side of herself in front of all these people... Other than her younger sister, who would act like this by her ear... he was the first...

Lu Man secretly glanced at Gu Wenyen. He was actually quite handsome... Lu Man suddenly shook her head. What am I thinking about?!

Gu Wenyen was a little dumbfounded by Lu Man's "eek" and hurriedly released her.

Lu Man was suddenly released. Losing her balance, she fell to the ground.

Gu Wenyen crouched down and looked at Lu Man. "You... you... what's wrong?" It was his first time encountering something like this, and he was at a complete loss.

Having only just arrived in this place, Gu Wenyen knew full well how dangerous it was. So he cultivated desperately. With that thing in his hand, his path of cultivation had been completely smooth, which was how he had achieved what he had today.

As a result, he had never been involved with women. It was only later that Lin Yu learned from Gu Wenyen that he had still been a virgin in that world! Of course, that was a story for later! No wonder he was acting this way today.

He had only wanted to scare her a little, yet she actually started whimpering?

Seeing Gu Wenyen's face draw closer, Lu Man jumped in fright and hurriedly staggered back a step. Blushing, she said, "I-I'm... I'm fine..."

Looking at Lu Man's deeply flushed face, Gu Wenyen somehow found his own face growing a little red as well. Lu Man actually seemed pretty cute...

Xiao Xun'er tugged at Lin Yu's clothes from the side and quietly whispered into his ear, "Brother Lin Yu, there's something going on between those two..."

Not dropped, not dropped.
