Brother Houyi, I'm sorry.
"Treasure, what treasure?" Lin Xuan scratched his head, not understanding what Change meant.
"Hehe, you little fellow, you're not being honest."
"How could I be..." Lin Xuan gave an awkward smile.
Those words really wronged him.
He had quite a few treasures on him.
Without specifying.
How could he know what treasure she was talking about.
Lin Xuan thought this in his heart.
But he didn't dare to say that Change was speaking in riddles.
According to the realm division.
Change was most likely a Fifth-Order.
Even if her strength was a bit weaker, only able to contend with a newly promoted Fourth-Order Demon.
That was still not something his current strength could contend with.
It was just that.
If he wanted to leave the Ruins, he probably couldn't do so without Change.
Lin Xuan thought for a moment.
Finally, he lightly coughed and said.
"Fairy, why don't you just say what you want."
"I am an orphan, though I'm a bit miserable and poor."
"Fortunately, I have many friends, and after I get out, I can ask them for help to buy the treasure the Fairy desires."
As soon as these words came out.
Lin Xuan himself wanted to laugh.
Playing poor, selling misery, and then promising to do his best.
This set of rhetoric was simply seamless.
Change chuckled.
"Hehe, you little fellow are quite interesting."
"You're quite handsome, but your mouth is full of nonsense."
Being told that by Change.
Lin Xuan's old face flushed.
But fortunately.
Change didn't say anything more.
Her figure floated.
She reclined on a bed not far away.
White silk socks wrapped her small jade feet, embroidered shoes half-slipped off, and her slender jade legs were slightly bent.
After lying down comfortably.
Change rested her chin on one hand, gently fanning herself with a jade-colored fan, her bright eyes fixed on Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan gave an awkward smile.
And remained silent.
He had just been drawn into the palace.
He hadn't had time to observe.
Now that Change had laid down.
Only then did he begin to observe his surroundings.
This should be the inner hall of Guanghan Palace.
Candles glowed on both sides.
It was quite magical.
The candlelight actually emitted a faint cold fragrance.
One whiff made one feel refreshed.
However.
The hall was quite simple.
There was only a bed, a table, and a chair.
Other than that, there was nothing else.
As Lin Xuan was looking.
Change, half-lying on the bed, waved her hand.
In an instant.
Lin Xuan only felt his body become incredibly heavy.
As if there was a mountain on his back.
"A god's treasure is not that easy to steal."
"This is a slight punishment for you."
"Of course, if you perform well enough, you can still get a considerable reward."
Change's voice was light and pleasant.
But the content of her words made Lin Xuan's heart tighten, and he quickly checked his status.
【You received a God's punishment】
【Effect: Bear ten thousand jin of pressure, Speed -50%, Casting Speed -50%, effect lasts for seventy-two hours!】
【Remaining Time: 72:00:00】
【Hint: If the punishment is ended early, you will permanently gain the effect, Speed +50%, Casting Speed +50%!】
"This..." Lin Xuan's pupils widened, "This isn't a punishment at all."
"It's clearly a reward!"
Lin Xuan took a deep breath, "Fairy, what kind of performance do you want from me?"
"To be honest, I used to intern at a bathhouse, skilled in massage, foot washing, and ear picking."
"Of course, if the Fairy needs, I can first buy a few air conditioners and then renovate this Guanghan Palace..."
"Hehe, little fellow, you are very interesting."
"What if I say I want you to stay here in Guanghan Palace and keep me company?"
Change said with a smile.
Upon hearing this.
Lin Xuan's mouth twitched.
There was only Change in this Guanghan Palace.
Asking him to stay here and keep her company, what was the difference from being in prison?
Moreover.
If he and Change stayed in this Guanghan Palace.
Wouldn't Hou Yi kill him?
Lin Xuan scratched his head and said with a smile: "This... this isn't appropriate, is it?"
"If the Fairy truly wants me to accompany you, it's not impossible."
"It's just that I don't know if Brother Hou Yi would be willing."
"Hahahah."
Change chuckled again.
"You little fellow, you really are quite interesting."
Speaking of which.
Change fell silent for a moment, letting out a slight sigh.
"However, since you've already mentioned him."
"And you took his treasure."
"Why haven't you quickly handed it over after seeing me?"
After Change finished speaking.
Lin Xuan suddenly realized.
He had previously thought Change wanted the items dropped by the Demon.
It turned out to be the sun-shooting divine bow!
Lin Xuan gave an awkward smile.
He had almost been ready to say sorry to Brother Hou Yi just now.
However.
The sun-shooting divine bow was picked up by him at the entrance of Guanghan Palace.
And it had triggered a quest to repair the supreme artifact.
Lin Xuan felt that.
It would be better to let Change take the things that the Fourth-Order Demon had dropped just now.
"So that's what the Fairy was talking about."
Lin Xuan thought for a moment, then still took out the Divine Bow.
After all, this was a god.
Her fist was bigger.
Lin Xuan took out the Hou Yi Divine Bow.
Seeing the Divine Bow.
Change beckoned with her jade hand.
The Divine Bow fell into her hand.
Gently stroking the bowstring with her jade hand, Change's eyes showed a look of reminiscence.
"Alas, things have changed, but people remain the same."
"However, since it chose you, it is your destiny."
"Repair it as soon as possible; time is running out."
As Change spoke.
She waved her jade hand.
The Divine Bow transformed into a stream of light and returned to Lin Xuan's hand again.
Looking at the Divine Bow in his hand.
Lin Xuan was a bit stunned.
He had just prepared himself mentally to lose the treasure.
He didn't expect that.
Change just took a look, chatted for a few words, and then returned it to him.
However.
What did Change's words just now mean?
Time is running out?
Does that mean the Ruins are about to close?
Or does it have some other meaning?
As Lin Xuan was deep in thought.
Change's voice sounded again.
"There are materials to repair the bow tip under the osmanthus tree."
"However, there's a rabbit pounding medicine there."
"With your strength, dealing with it should be just right."
"After killing it, burn its bones, put them into the medicine pounding mortar, and bury it under the osmanthus tree."
"Once this is done, come back, and I will not only help you lift the punishment but also send you and the people you brought out."
As soon as Change said this.
Lin Xuan's eyes lit up.
The quest to repair the Divine Bow had to be done.
It would be even better if the punishment could be lifted.
And he could also leave the Ruins in the process.
Killing three birds with one stone!
However, there were too many rabbits in this Guanghan Palace.
"Good!"
As soon as Lin Xuan finished speaking.
Change gently waved her jade hand.
Lin Xuan only felt his vision blur.
When he reappeared.
He had already left the palace and appeared outside.
It wasn't just him.
Irena and the other contracted beasts that he had left in the depths of the palace to kill the flying maids.
Even those undead creatures and Skeleton Soldierss had all come out.
"My Lord..."
Irena and the other contracted beasts bowed.
Lin Xuan waved his hand.
He found that where he was, it was directly in front of the palace.
Due to the Fourth-Order Demon that had appeared earlier.
The black mist of the Ruins had dissipated, and the visibility was much clearer.
Of course.
The terrain had also changed quite a bit at this moment.
It was pitted everywhere.
This, on the contrary, seemed to conform more to the Guanghan Palace Ruins.
After all, this pitted ground.
Coupled with the burned, ash-white land.
It somewhat resembled the surface of the moon.
"Where are Zhang Fan and the others?"
Lin Xuan looked around and found that Zhang Fan and Chen Wanqiu were not in front of the palace.
"Master, they are over there."
Hearing Irena's reminder.
Lin Xuan then noticed that under the osmanthus tree, hundreds of miles away.
Not only was there a giant lying there.
But there were also many figures engaged in battle.
The distance was too far.
Lin Xuan had just thought that it was the rabbit pounding medicine that Change had mentioned.
"There are still so many Demons."
"Let's go, that's a lot of experience, attributes, and skill points."
