"I'd love to have some, but where on this Douluo Continent would I find Golden Lightning Bamboo?"
Lin Yuan uttered words much like those Xuan Gu had once spoken in his previous life.
At the same time, he thought to himself that, across the entire Douluo Continent, only Xuan Jian and the Six Sword Slaves had truly seen his martial soul.
Now the Six Sword Slaves were dead.
Only Xuan Jian has seen it. It looks like he hasn't been spreading word of my martial soul.
Otherwise, this old ghost Xuan Gu would have found out long ago.
"You brat, that tongue of yours really is vicious... Still, there might well be Golden Lightning Bamboo in this world. After all, among you transmigrators from Blue Star, there are some who possess systems, just like this foolish boy Zhang Qing."
Xuan Gu continued probing him, his words laden with meaning.
"You've killed transmigrators who possessed systems?"
Lin Yuan withdrew his gaze and asked coldly, as though he really believed the other man's pack of lies.
"Indeed. I once killed a system owner and obtained a pill from that brat, one that came from our world. It was called the Youth-Retaining Pill. If you want it, I'll give it to you later."
Xuan Gu lowered his head and snapped his fingers, speaking as though every word were true.
"No need." Lin Yuan's reply made it sound as if he believed him.
Inwardly, however, he sneered again and again.
There really isn't a single truthful word in this old ghost's mouth.
If he'd really killed a system owner, he would have used Shi Nian, who's already become a corpse puppet, to slaughter Zhang Qing and obtain the Make-Believe-to-Reality System long ago.
*I'm afraid this old ghost has had his sights set on me
