176: The time-traveling girl Xiao Hongdou

“Cough!”

“Miss Xiao, are you willing to take Elder Bai as your master?”

Seeing the atmosphere grow cold, Elder Xia Zhengfeng lightly coughed, bringing the conversation back.

No sooner had he spoken than he saw Lin Xuan looking at him with murderous eyes. Elder Xia Zhengfeng was confused.

He had resolved Lin Xuan’s awkwardness, shouldn't Lin Xuan be grateful to him?

Could it be that Lin Xuan also had his eyes on Xiao Hongdou?

“Yes, I am willing.”

Xiao Hongdou was overjoyed.

Her grandmother had brought her to Star God Temple specifically to join it.

With her incomplete Innate Sword Bone aptitude, it would be good enough if she could become an outer disciple.

Now that Bai Wuya was willing to take her as a disciple, this was simply an enormous stroke of luck.

After all, Bai Wuya was not only an inner elder but also Gu Qing’s father-in-law.

She had no reason to refuse.

“Wait!”

Just as Xiao Hongdou was about to kneel and kowtow, Lin Xuan reached out, and an invisible force lifted her up.

“Little girl, taking a master is a major life event. You must think it through carefully,” Lin Xuan said indifferently.

“...”

Why did Lin Xuan’s words give her a feeling of hidden meaning?

Xiao Hongdou frowned.

How annoying.

She hated people who spoke in riddles and didn’t make themselves clear.

However, after Lin Xuan’s reminder, Xiao Hongdou couldn’t help but become suspicious.

She never believed in windfalls, and Bai Wuya might have ulterior motives for taking a disciple.

But she was poor and had nothing worth Bai Wuya’s attention.

Could it be that the two of them saw that she had an unawakened Exquisite Immortal Body?

Otherwise, why would Bai Wuya and Lin Xuan be vying to take her as a disciple?

Numerous thoughts flashed through her mind. Xiao Hongdou saw Bai Wuya’s expression gradually darken, gritted her teeth, and the moment the invisible force on her disappeared, she immediately knelt and kowtowed.

“Disciple Xiao Hongdou, greets Master!”

She had no way out; she either offended Bai Wuya or offended Lin Xuan.

Between the two, she chose Bai Wuya.

“Good!”

Bai Wuya stroked his beautiful beard, a joyful expression on his face: “Rise, from this moment on, you are my disciple, Bai Wuya’s disciple.”

“This Divine Marrow is your initiation gift from me, your master.”

“Thank you, Master, for the reward.”

Xiao Hongdou was dizzy from the sudden surprise, but her movements were not slow at all.

She quickly placed the fingernail-sized Divine Marrow floating before her into a jade box, sealed it with a restriction, and put it into her storage ring, all in one smooth motion.

Lin Xuan watched from the side, stunned, completely bewildered by Xiao Hongdou’s series of actions.

He had thought that Xiao Hongdou, upon hearing his reminder, would become wary of Bai Wuya and thus refuse to take him as a master.

He was just waiting for Bai Wuya to make trouble, and then he would forcefully strike down Bai Wuya.

After gaining Xiao Hongdou’s gratitude, would he still fear that Xiao Hongdou wouldn’t be willing to take him as her master?

But who knew that Xiao Hongdou would immediately take him as a master without a word, completely going against his expectations.

Lin Xuan’s indifferent expression was somewhat distorted.

Others didn’t know Xiao Hongdou’s true physique, but Lin Xuan knew it too well.

This was a seven-star talent prodigy, possessing an incomplete Innate Sword Bone and an unawakened Exquisite Immortal Body.

Furthermore, she was a fated villainess with terrifyingly high luck.

In addition, with this piece of Divine Marrow, Xiao Hongdou would definitely be able to awaken her Exquisite Immortal Body.

Would Xiao Hongdou still be willing to take him as her master then?

Lin Xuan’s heart ached. He wanted to stop her, but he didn’t know what reason to use.

If he had known this, he wouldn’t have played coy and acted cool.

Now, before he even made a move, the matter was already settled, leaving all his calculations stillborn.

“Divine Marrow...”

“It’s actually Divine Marrow...”

The eyes of the geniuses present all turned red.

That was a supreme treasure containing immortal and indestructible divinity, capable of helping a Saint Realm cultivator break through to the Divine Fire Realm and evolving one’s physique.

It had only ever been in legends; they had never even seen it.

Yet Bai Wuya gave Divine Marrow as an initiation gift. How much Divine Marrow did Bai Wuya actually have?

For a moment, everyone’s expressions were greedy and longing, their gazes fixed on Bai Wuya.

They wondered if they could trade for some Divine Marrow with Bai Wuya.

“Little girl, he doesn’t want to take a disciple at all; he’s looking for a concubine. It’s not too late to regret now.”

Seeing Bai Wuya about to leave with her, Lin Xuan finally couldn’t sit still and no longer cared about acting profound.

“What?”

Xiao Hongdou’s delicate body trembled. She looked at Bai Wuya, whose face was covered in a beautiful beard, and her face turned pale.

She had thought that her hidden peerless divine body was what made the two of them vie to take her as a disciple.

She didn’t expect it to be... no, that’s not right.

If it was for a concubine, how could Bai Wuya give her Divine Marrow?

Although Xiao Hongdou was extremely confident in her beauty, in front of Divine Marrow, it was nothing.

It wasn’t that she was belittling herself; this small piece of Divine Marrow was enough to exchange for countless women like her.

So, Lin Xuan was lying to her?

Thinking of this possibility, Xiao Hongdou’s expression was not good, but she didn’t say anything.

She secretly decided to stay far away from Lin Xuan, that despicable scoundrel, in the future.

“Elder Lin Xuan, it’s a shame you are a Divine Fire Realm powerhouse, yet your actions are so despicable.”

Bai Wuya angrily rebuked.

Although he did indeed think that, he certainly couldn’t admit to such a thing.

“Heh.”

“Whether I’m wronging you or not, you know it in your heart,” Lin Xuan said indifferently, a cold sneer on his lips when he saw this.

Bai Wuya was stunned.

No, he cursed Lin Xuan to his face, and Lin Xuan wasn’t angry?

He had already planned it out: if Lin Xuan dared to use his power to oppress him, he would immediately send a message to Jiang Yu and to the Enforcement Hall, severely dampening Lin Xuan’s prestige and making a splash in the process.

After all, humiliating a Divine Fire Realm expert was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Lin Xuan’s expression was calm, his eyes as still as an ancient well, as if everything was under his control. He continued, “Bai Wuya, I dare to swear on my Heart Demon, do you dare?”

“Don’t dare?”

“How about we make a bet?”

Bai Wuya was even more bewildered, his eyes wide with surprise.

A bet?

You, a Divine Fire Realm expert, want to bet with me, a Venerable Realm expert?

“Lin Xuan, what kind of bet do you want to make with my father-in-law? Tell me.”

Gu Qing, hidden in the void, knew that Lin Xuan’s show-off moment had arrived.

If he didn’t come out now, his old father-in-law would probably be slapped repeatedly by Lin Xuan.

The moment Xiao Hongdou saw Gu Qing, her eyes went wide.

She had never seen such a handsome and unparalleled man, with an extraordinary temperament, like a divine being plucking the moon from the nine heavens. Every part of him resonated with her heart.

Especially his pair of flawless white jade hands, with distinct knuckles.

For her, a hand fetish, it was simply fatal.

Gu Qing glanced at her, feeling speechless.

The excitement of fellow countrymen meeting, with tears in their eyes, instantly vanished.

That’s right, after detection by the Counter-Armor System, Xiao Hongdou was a fated villainess, and also a transmigrator with a system.

However, this infatuated look was very hard to comment on.

“Gu Qing...”

“Is he... Gu Qing?”

The group of geniuses present looked at Gu Qing with solemn expressions.

Gu Qing’s aura was simply too powerful. Even without revealing a trace of his presence, an unparalleled sense of oppression washed over them.

Looking at Gu Qing, they always felt a sense of humility, feeling inferior.

As if mortals facing a god.

“So handsome.”

“This is the man I lost outside; I must take him back to the Original Demon Sect.”

The girl with a tear mole at the corner of her eye gazed at Gu Qing with captivating, infatuated eyes.

“Miss...”

Although, the idea is good, don't think about it next time.

The Protector accompanying the girl silently complained.

The successor of Star God Temple, how could they just abduct him?

Lest they end up losing both the wife and the army.
