694: Chapter 692 As Friends

"Just borrowing it for a few days?"

Duan Lingxi curled her lips, her face showing grievance:

"I do have another spirit pot. Although I can't use it for now, it's still a very precious treasure. For you to just open your mouth and ask for it like this... isn't this open robbery?"

Chu Xuan said, "Rest assured, I won't take yours for nothing. I'll give the hairpin to you."

Duan Lingxi's eyes lit up slightly, obviously tempted, but she still reservedly said, "This... wouldn't be very good, right?"

"There's nothing not good about it. We are taking what we need." Chu Xuan waved his hand and added,

"Besides, in the upcoming operations, until the World Mission ends, you can follow us, and I'll guarantee your safety."

Duan Lingxi instantly looked happy, but immediately afterwards, she sized up Chu Xuan with extreme vigilance and asked suspiciously,

"Could you be trying to scam me again? Just like when you had me drink that life essence before..."

"Wasn't the life essence good?" Chu Xuan raised an eyebrow and said,

"Not only have you successfully advanced in rank now, but you also smoothly participated in this World Mission. Next, we will carry you to victory. After it ends and you go back, who knows how many benefits you'll gain? You've simply made a massive profit!"

"Uh... What you said seems to make a bit of sense." While speaking, Duan Lingxi had already taken out a spirit pot.

After Tang Zheng took it, he immediately began injecting the excess part of the spirituality value into it.

Chu Xuan turned his head to look at Xuan Xuan, who had been silent on the side.

"Long time no see." Chu Xuan smiled softly,

"I didn't expect you to improve so fast as well. I'm very happy to see you in this Cangyun World. However, I have a question: when you were teleported away last time, it seemed you had some opinions about me?"

Amidst his words, seeing Xuan Xuan's expression changing constantly, Chu Xuan suddenly changed the subject:

"What are you thinking about? You couldn't possibly be considering whether to run away, right? You..."

"Alright, say no more, I get it!" Xuan Xuan immediately raised a hand to stop him, and without another word, she also took out a spirit pot and handed it to Chu Xuan.

"This is what I just traded from Lingxi. Since you need it so much, I'll give it to you."

After Chu Xuan took it, he injected 80,000 spirituality values into it, while casting a rather surprised glance at Duan Lingxi.

Duan Lingxi shrank her neck: "Don't look at me, I only obtained three spirit pots in total, and I gave all of them to you guys."

At this moment, Xuan Xuan hesitated for a moment, and then took out a pile of soul crystals:

"I've offended you greatly before. Let these soul crystals be my compensation to you. Although they are a bit few, they are basically my entire net worth. I'm only keeping 12 soul crystals to use as my bottom-of-the-box savings."

When Xuan Xuan spoke, she was incomparably sincere, as if she really only kept 12 soul crystals.

Raising his eyes for a quick sweep, Chu Xuan immediately recognized that the soul crystals Xuan Xuan took out totaled 200.

"Didn't we already settle accounts before?" That said, Chu Xuan was not polite either; right now he was lacking soul crystals.

These 200 soul crystals were just a drop in the bucket for Chu Xuan's needs, but who could refuse free benefits?

"Your eyes were glowing when you looked at me, how could I not guess what you were thinking?" Xuan Xuan's gaze was both resentful and heartbroken.

Chu Xuan said with a normal expression: "That must be your illusion."

"Alright, let's just pretend it's my illusion, and I'm too narrow-minded." Xuan Xuan pouted:

"However, since you've accepted my compensation, you can't harbor designs on me anymore in the future."

"Of course, but the premise is that you don't actively look for trouble." Speaking of this, Chu Xuan changed the subject:

"Right, you wouldn't have been cursing me in your heart just now, would you?"

"No, how could that be?!!" Xuan Xuan almost jumped to her feet.

"Don't be so excited." Chu Xuan said with a chuckle:

"Even if you curse me in your heart, as long as you don't say it out of your mouth, I won't blame you. After all, when it comes to people, I always judge by actions rather than intentions."

"No, absolutely not!" Xuan Xuan hurriedly shook her head and said with incomparable sincerity:

"You can let bygones be bygones and forgive my previous rashness. I'm too busy thanking you, how could I possibly curse you in my heart?"

"Mm, I believe you. After all, although we don't belong to the same world, as long as there is no conflict of interest, we can still be good friends. I love making friends the most." Chu Xuan smiled.

Xuan Xuan squeezed out a smile with difficulty: "If I can become your friend, that really is my honor!"

"That's right! As a friend, even if you curse me a couple of times to my face, I won't mind it. As for in your heart, I'll mind it even less." Chu Xuan smiled, and suddenly changed the subject:

"Speaking of which, I'm rather curious. Every time you can take out so many soul crystals, could it be that Haoqiong World abounds in them?"

Seeing that Chu Xuan didn't seem to have the intention of holding her accountable relentlessly, and his tone was also very friendly and soft.

Afterward, she thought about her previous contacts with Chu Xuan, the information about Chu Xuan she had just inquired from Duan Lingxi, and Chu Xuan's past actions.

Xuan Xuan felt that Chu Xuan's character should still be quite good. Although he showed no mercy to enemies, if they could turn enemies into friends, it would only be beneficial to her.

At least in the current Cangyun World, she could also gain a helper.

Thinking of this, Xuan Xuan's mood relaxed a bit, and a proud smile couldn't help overflowing on her face:

"Although soul crystals are similarly precious in our Haoqiong World, they are definitely not as scarce as you imagine. After all, our Haoqiong World is vast with abundant resources and full of talented people. As long as there are professional miners, we basically won't be too lacking in soul crystals, and a large batch will be produced every once in a while."

"Professional miners?" Chu Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly.

Duan Lingxi and Tang Zheng also cast their curious gazes over at this moment.

Xuan Xuan seemed to realize that she had said a bit too much, and hurriedly laughed it off: "Aiya, that's actually just an occupation, it's a long story..."

"If it's a long story, then you don't need to say it."

To Xuan Xuan's surprise, Chu Xuan's eyes merely flashed, but next he didn't continue to pursue this question, instead changing the topic:

"According to what you mean in your words, that is to say... you can easily obtain many treasures in Haoqiong World?"

Hearing this, Xuan Xuan keenly sensed a trace of bad omen, and smiled shyly: "There aren't many either, just so-so."

"Is that so?" Chu Xuan enumerated:

"Not to mention the soul crystals and the golden silk hairpin, the Traverse Formation Plate you used when Passing Three Passes before was quite good. It could actually directly enter and teleport away from the darkness rules domain, it must be a very precious item, right?"

"Oh, right!" Chu Xuan rubbed his chin, as if suddenly remembering something, and continued:

"Especially that death-exemption token, which can actually immunize against a mission penalty. I've never seen such a good thing before! As a friend, can you satisfy my curiosity and let me witness it?"

Xuan Xuan waved her hands repeatedly: "There is none left, I used it up long ago! Moreover, the death-exemption token I used before had many restrictions, and it only targeted lives no higher than level 10. To you now, it has no effect whatsoever."

"Then... do you have any treasures useful to me and this good brother of mine?"

Chu Xuan pointed at himself, then pointed at Tang Zheng, looked at Xuan Xuan with a smiling expression, and said, "You definitely have some, right?"
