Chapter 50 – Ah-Sha's dream, a glimpse of the future!
Inside the inn.
In a quiet and elegant secret chamber.
"No wonder!"
Listening to the black-clothed person's report below, Murong Chuan suddenly realized.
"He seems to have remnants of fire energy on him; he must have fought with Jiang Hong. It was my oversight, I actually didn't think of this."
"Remarkable!"
He was full of admiration.
"With just the strength of the second level Meridian Unblocking, he was able to defeat someone with a Fire Spirit Body at the ninth level. He must be extraordinary! The young lady's judgment is indeed beyond my reach! Hehe, I'm becoming more and more curious about this young brother."
Little did he know.
Murong Yan gave Gu Han the token simply because she took a liking to him.
It had little to do with judgment.
"There's another matter."
Below.
The black-clothed person suddenly hesitated.
"Speak."
Murong Chuan gestured with his hand.
"Could he possibly tear down the Martial Academy?"
"This... not exactly."
The black-clothed person paused.
"It's just... he chose Mei Yun as his Instructor."
"What!"
Murong Chuan, who had been composed, suddenly lost his composure.
"Mei Yun? How could he..."
Before he could finish.
His expression changed, and in a flash, he disappeared.
...
Inside the main hall.
Seeing Murong Chuan suddenly appear, Gu Han was curious.
This senior...
Why such an expression?
He had been here for several days and had never seen him lose his composure like this.
"Senior."
He greeted with a bow.
"Thank you for this matter!"
"Did you get the item?"
"I did!"
Gu Han lifted the Storage Ring in his hand.
"That fast?"
Murong Chuan was curious.@@@@
"Normally, I've never seen him so straightforward. What... what price did you pay?"
"Tenfold."
"Tenfold?"
Murong Chuan was even more curious.
He knew the value of the Falling Ghost Fruit all too well. Given how frugal Gu Han was, always asking if staying at an inn was free, where would he get so many Yuan Crystals?
Moreover...
Even with Yuan Crystals, it wasn't guaranteed one could buy the Falling Ghost Fruit.
However.
Gu Han didn't say, and naturally, Murong Chuan wouldn't ask further.
"By the way."
Gu Han seemed to remember something and pulled Chen Ping to the front.
"Senior, would you mind doing me a small favor?"
"A small favor?"
Murong Chuan was taken aback, glanced at Chen Ping a few times, somewhat puzzled.
"Who is he?"
Chen Ping was completely dumbfounded!
To be precise, after Gu Han told him about the Murong Family, he had been in a daze.
He had been in the Capital for many years.
Naturally, he understood the terror of the Murong Family.
Even the royal family had to step aside before them!
So...
Brother Gu was actually a distinguished guest of the Murong Family!
So...
The person who had caused a stir a few days ago, making Liu Tong kneel, was actually Brother Gu!
So...
"Outrageous!"
As he was thinking.
A sudden angry shout pulled him back to reality.
After hearing Gu Han's story.
Murong Chuan sneered repeatedly.
"I thought he was just an indecent person, but I didn't expect him to be so greedy and without a bottom line. A tenfold price still couldn't satisfy his appetite. How about it..."
He looked at Gu Han.
"Do you want me to take action and help you deal with him?"
...
Gu Han was speechless.
I'm the one being chased, so why... do you seem angrier than I am?
"Senior, the token... I don't want to use it for now."
"Then... let it be."
Murong Chuan was somewhat disappointed.
His righteous indignation just now was mostly an act.
Disdain was real.
Anger was fake.
"Your name is Chen Ping?"
Seeing that Gu Han didn't take the bait, he turned his gaze to Chen Ping.
"Yes..."
Facing the legendary Murong innkeeper.
Chen Ping couldn't even speak properly.
"...Yes, I... I am Chen Ping..."
"Good!"
Murong Chuan smiled.
"I've heard about your situation, not bad, truly commendable! Loyal, righteous, and responsible! Tsk tsk, Tian Heng must be blind to have missed such a talent like you!"
"I... I..."
Chen Ping was at a loss.
"Okay!"
Ah-Sha perked up.
"Young Master, I want to eat... Huh?"
She stopped mid-sentence.
Her delicate brows suddenly furrowed, staring motionlessly at Gu Han.
"Young Master, why is there a layer of black aura around you?"
"Black aura?"
Gu Han was startled.
"How could that be, I've never..."
He stopped mid-sentence.
He suddenly remembered the uncomfortable feeling when he chose Mei Yun as his Instructor.
Could it be...
His face suddenly turned pale.
This legend of the Unlucky Person... couldn't be true, could it?
"Ah-Sha."
He forced a smile, "You... look again, did you see it wrong?"
"No."
Ah-Sha's little face was full of seriousness.
"It's a layer of black aura, just faint, it seems not to affect Young Master much."
Phew...
Gu Han subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
Not a big impact?
That's good, that's good!
Originally, he thought of going back to the Martial Academy to interact with Instructor Mei Yun and also to collect his reward after getting the Falling Ghost Fruit.
But now...
He wouldn't go there even if he was killed!
The farther away from this Heavenly Destroyer Lone Star, the better!
"Huh?"
Ah-Sha noticed something else.
"Young Master, you have a Storage Ring too?"
"This..."
Gu Han's heart stirred.
"Ah-Sha, see if there's anything inside this?"
Saying so.
He took out the fist-sized Mysterious Stone.
"Umm..."
Ah-Sha glanced at it.
"There's something black inside, I don't know what it is."
After a moment's hesitation.
Gu Han applied a little force and crushed the Mysterious Stone to pieces.
After shedding the stone shell, a thumb-sized, dull iron piece fell into his hand, looking like a part of a magical treasure that was missing.
Looking at Ah-Sha, who was somewhat puzzled.
He felt a bit emotional.
This time... he might be about to strike it rich!
Taking Ah-Sha's little hand, ready to take her treasure hunting, Qian Liu's voice suddenly came from outside.
"Brother Gu."
"The Seventh Prince has arrived, I wonder..."
Jiang Feng?
Gu Han was startled, then reacted.
"Let him in."
Saying so.
He then opened the prohibitions of the outer room.
"Brother Gu."
The first to enter was Jiang Feng.
He looked worried.
"Earlier you left suddenly, did something happen?"
"Tsk tsk."
The second to enter was Fatty.
He scanned the room and pursed his lips.
"That's it?"
"Hmph!"
The third to enter.
Was Manager Li, with a face as black as the bottom of a pot.
He was furious.
All the way here, he had been bickering with Fatty and consistently lost, naturally building up a stomach full of anger.
He never expected.
Fatty's mouth was even more damaging than Gu Han's.
The words he said were even more unbearable.
"Huh?"
Before Gu Han could speak.
Ah-Sha noticed something amiss.
To read the uncut version, go to ].
"Young Master."
She quietly tugged at Gu Han.
"The Seventh Prince seems to have a black aura too."
...
Gu Han was speechless.
After spending so much time with Mei Yun, how could he not?
"Ah!"
Seeing Fatty.
Ah-Sha suddenly widened her eyes.
"He has it too! It seems... even more than you and the Seventh Prince!"
"But..."
She looked at Manager Li.
"He doesn't have it, his face is just very black."
Hearing this.
Manager Li's face turned even blacker.
All of them had cultivation and could hear every word clearly, even though Ah-Sha spoke softly.
"Little maid."
Fatty immediately became unsettled, his face turning pale, and he forced a smile, "What nonsense are you talking about? What black aura? Stop joking!"
"No."
Ah-Sha shook her head, her little face full of sincerity.
"I feel... you're about to die."
