At that moment, Xie Xie suddenly understood something.
"No wonder Xu Xiaoyan is so much stronger than me. So that's what was going on."
Gu Yuena: ...
She had not expected that, after a whole month of school, Xie Xie still had not realized that Xiao Yan was Xinghe's follower.
However, considering that Xie Xie had devoted all his attention to cultivation over the past month, Gu Yuena decided not to look down on his intelligence.
"That's right. If you follow me, I can make you as strong as Xu Xiaoyan. So, are you tempted?"
Gu Yuena's pride would not allow her first invitation to someone to be rejected, so she revealed plenty of her trump cards and went all in.
"Power, wealth, cultivation, soul spirits... As long as you follow me, I can give you all of it."
"If you become my follower, I guarantee that your future achievements will surpass those of the Dark Earl."
Xie Xie listened silently, inexplicably feeling as though some evil criminal organization was luring an underage child.
So, should he refuse?
Ding!
Suddenly recalling the look Gu Yuena had given him when they first met, Xie Xie instantly abandoned any thought of refusing.
He had a feeling that if he refused, his fate might be terrible.
TV dramas often said that those who understood the times were the wise ones, so...
"I'm willing."
"A smart choice." Gu Yuena was very satisfied with that answer, because it had saved her face.
"Here, sign this contract."
Gu Yuena tossed him something. Xie Xie caught it and saw that it was a brand-new sheet of parchment, covered in patterns he could not understand. One corner bore a handprint, while another was blank. It was obviously reserved for him.
A contract? Did Douluo Continent have such things?
