Douluo Continent: Ning Rongrong? Even a dog wouldn't chase her.

Hearing Xiao Wu's answer, Gu Yi was a little confused. What kind of magical thought process was that?

"I never said I wanted to go back to the Star Dou Great Forest. Can't I stay with you and grow together?"

A tear welled up in Xiao Wu's eye, about to fall.

"Oh? But if you stay here, then Auntie..."

Before Gu Yi could finish speaking, A Rou's voice came from inside the room.

"Of course I'm with Xiaowu too. I can't bear to be separated from her right now."

Arou walked to Xiaowu's side, and while replying, she gently wiped away the tears in Xiaowu's eyes with her fingers.

"Ah this..."

Gu Yi was in a bit of a dilemma.

He never considered bringing Xiao Wu along; it would be far too dangerous for her to stay with him in her current identity.

"No, you can't come with me."

"The forces I am currently in are far too dangerous for you."

"I should have told you this a year ago, Xiao Wu."

Gu Yi made up his mind and explained to the two of them in a righteous and righteous manner.

"Huh? There's such a thing?"

Arou never expected that there was such a hidden reason behind it.

Yes, you did say that.

"But didn't you also offer a solution back then?"

"Gu Yi, give me the Acacia Heartbreak Red again. I feel like I can succeed this time."

Xiao Wu extended her right hand toward Gu Yi and said confidently.

She has now made her choice and will no longer have any doubts. She will definitely succeed!

"The Red of Heartbreak and Longing? You..."

"Okay, if you can really succeed, I'll say yes."

As he spoke, Gu Yi took out the Acacia Heartbreak Red again and handed it to Xiao Wu.

Since Xiaowu has said so, if I don't agree, wouldn't that be the same as kicking her out?

Anyway, it's the right thing to do. As long as she can activate the Acacia Heartbreak Red and conceal her aura, Gu Yi has no objections.

"puff!"

After receiving the Love-Sickness Heartbreak Red Flower, Xiao Wu did not hesitate at all. She slapped her chest and spat out a mouthful of blood onto the flower.

Immediately afterwards, Gu Yi's figure and face appeared in her mind.

She focused intently on her thoughts, eliminating all distractions.

Gu Yi knew that Tang San was no longer important to her, and her choice was supported by her mother.

She had nothing left to be afraid of.

As expected, the flowers of the Acacia Heartbreak Red bloomed and detached from Wu Jue, falling into Xiao Wu's hands.

"She did it! Xiao Wu did it!"

Arou exclaimed with delight from the side.

This means that Xiao Wu still has a chance!

Gu Yi, standing to the side, had an indescribable expression on his face. He sighed, truly not expecting Xiao Wu to succeed.

"I succeeded?"

Xiao Wu slowly opened her eyes, looking somewhat dazed at the red flower in her hand, a surge of joy gradually welling up in her heart.

"I did it! Gu Yi!"

"As agreed, you are to take me with you."

As if showing off, Xiao Wu handed the Acacia Heartbreak Red in her hand to Gu Yi.

Gu Yi glanced at the Acacia Heartbreak Red, then at Xiao Wu, and nodded.

"Of course, I won't go back on my word."

"However, there is now another question for you to choose from."

"The sect I am currently in is led by the very person who murdered your mother!"

"Are you still coming with me?"

Chapter 109: Soul Saint Breakthrough

"Ok?"

Gu Yi's words left Xiao Wu and A Rou completely bewildered.

Is he now working for the murderer who killed Arou?

"How...how do you know who the murderer was?"

"Since you know that, why do you do it?"

Xiao Wu took a few steps back in disbelief, her eyes filled with shock.

As for Arou, she fell silent, unsure how to respond.

"Because only in this way can I stop her at the last minute."

Gu Yi replied without hesitation.

What do you mean by that?

"Stop her? Are you going to deal with her too?"

"Did you join that faction to get rid of her?"

Arou instantly grasped the core of Gu Yi's words and asked a series of questions.

Her series of questions rekindled a glimmer of hope in Xiao Wu's eyes.

She would never forgive the guy who caused her mother's tragic death. If Gu Yi were working for her now, they could only be enemies!

"That's it."

"At that time, I was being hunted by both the Star Luo Empire and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, so I had no choice but to go to the Spirit Hall."

"But no matter where I go, my purpose has never changed from the beginning."

"That is to grow quickly and then protect the people I love."

"The current Pope of the Spirit Hall is named Bibi Dong, the same person who killed you, Auntie, more than ten years ago."

"She wants to destroy the entire world for some reason, and her strength is terrifying; she definitely has a chance of doing it."

"Therefore, she will definitely be my enemy in the future, but for now I am still under her command."

Gu Yi explained the whole thing to them in a simple way so that they could understand his position.

He had already decided on his position from the very beginning, which was to stand on his own side.

Gu Yi is from another world. If he had traveled to another world earlier, he might have chosen to save Bibi Dong, change her, and then help her.

But now that everything has happened and there's no going back, he has no choice but to try to stop it all.

"So that's it."

Arou nodded, already understanding Gu Yi's thoughts.

She was relieved. Fortunately, Gu Yi wasn't on their side; otherwise, what would have become of Xiao Wu?

"In that case, I'm even more determined to go with you."

“She killed my mother and caused me to be separated from her for so long. I will never let her get away with this.”

"Since you're also going to deal with her, then I'll go with you."

Xiao Wu's face showed a determined look. She had made up her mind to follow Gu Yi!

"Alright then, since you've all put it that way, it would be disrespectful for me to say anything more."

"Okay, then you'll all follow me from now on."

After everything was laid out in the open, Gu Yi chose to respect their decision, even though it was a bit troublesome, it was still acceptable.

"Ok!"

Xiao Wu nodded heavily and responded.

"Ding! Congratulations, host, for gaining 70% favorability with Xiao Wu. As a reward, the age limit of all your soul bones will increase by 10,000 years."

As the system voice sounded, Gu Yi's soul power surged once more, constantly stimulating his body.

Level 67... Level 68

...Level 60...Level 70!

The surge of soul power within his body actually raised Gu Yi's soul power level by a full four levels!

Gu Yi suppressed his joy and spoke again.

"Then you should rest here for the next few days. I have some things to do, so I'll be leaving now."

After saying that, Gu Yi disappeared from their sight.

He currently has a divinely bestowed soul ring in his system inventory, which is just enough to break through to level 70.

He can finally have his own Martial Soul True Form!

"He... disappeared again. He's always in such a hurry, it seems like only Zhu Zhuqing can make him stop."

Xiao Wu looked at the spot where Gu Yi had just stood and felt a little disappointed.

It's so early today, she wanted to chat with Gu Yi some more, or go out and have some fun.
