Chapter 1293: Immortal Artifact Rebirth

~6 min read 1,183 words

Wu Dan looked at Miss Hongxiu with a face full of smiles, which seemed to contain a hint of flattery.

"Boss Hong, here is the situation: I had a misunderstanding with your younger sister earlier, and I have come specifically to apologize."

One must admit, Wu Dan's sudden change of face was somewhat surprising; he could almost sign up to become a master of face-changing.

Miss Hongxiu casually took a bite of the fruit in front of her: "Oh."

That single sentence choked Wu Dan badly.

He had thought of many things the other party might say, but he never expected Miss Hongxiu to say only "Oh."

Wu Dan clenched his hand tightly beneath his sleeve, yet his face remained smiling: "This Young Lady, I was rude just now; I am truly very sorry."

Gu Yanqi rolled her eyes; fortunately, Wu Dan did not see, otherwise he would have known that Gu Yanqi was currently thinking about some bad things.

Hearing only some sounds, Wu Dan looked over and saw Gu Yanqi rushing frantically to hide in Ning Chen's arms; she appeared very panicked, her eyes full of fear.

Wu Dan suddenly found himself speechless; not Big Sister, why are you panicking? Shouldn't he be the one panicking? If he remembered correctly, the person who was attacked back then was himself!

Wu Dan's heart was now going crazy with questions; he could never think of what kind of situation this was.

Gu Yanqi even shed a few tears, making her whole person look pitiful.

Although knowing it was fake, Ning Chen still felt heartache and pulled the person into his embrace.

"Good girl, don't cry; your crying makes my heart ache."

Ning Chen coaxed Gu Yanqi softly, completely devoid of his previous cold demeanor.

At this moment, Ning Chen was like ice melting into water, even warm water.

Miss Hongxiu, standing nearby, immediately understood, frowned directly at Wu Dan, and asked: "I wonder what exactly you did to make my younger sister so afraid of you? Why not tell us?"

Wu Dan was choked; what could he say? That he wanted to harass her sister? That would definitely make him die even faster.

"I, there was nothing much, just, just wanted to make friends with your sister, but your sister seemed a bit shy; perhaps my attitude was too enthusiastic and scared her."

"Hmph, that wasn't just too enthusiastic; you tried to lay hands on Sister Yanqi right away; who wouldn't be afraid of that?" Lin Yi looked at Wu Dan with a face full of disgust.

"Is that so? So the disciples of Dongqing Sect Sect actually all think about harassing others; it seems another day, I must personally visit the sect and have a good chat with everyone."

Upon hearing this, Wu Dan became a bit anxious; if his Master found out about this situation, he would surely be flayed alive.

"This time was indeed my fault; I am truly sorry; I can provide compensation to Miss Gu."

Upon hearing "compensation," Gu Yanqi stopped crying and immediately came out of Ning Chen's embrace.

Making the other party suffer was indeed a good thing, but if there was compensation, that was different; that was an even better thing.

Since the other party brought it up voluntarily, not making them bleed heavily would be somewhat disrespectful to this proposal.

"What can you offer?" Gu Yanqi spoke directly, without any concealment.

Wu Dan:...

No, do you have to want his treasures so obviously!

Wu Dan took a deep breath, then took out a cloth bag; this bag was also called a Qiankun Bag, something only the most outstanding disciple in Dongqing Sect Sect would possess.

And this bag had once belonged to Xiao Han.

Xiao Han glanced at the bag without showing emotion; the bag was covered in dust, and even the spiritual energy originally on the bag was hazy; one could see at a glance that the other party had not treated this bag well.

Xiao Han frowned; he never expected the Qiankun Bag to be given to Wu Dan, after all, in Dongqing Sect Sect, there were too many disciples better than him; this was obviously the Second Elder favoring his own disciple.

It seems that since this Second Elder became the Acting Sect Master, he has become arrogant and overbearing.

As Xiao Han's childhood friend, Miss Hongxiu naturally knew the situation of this Qiankun Bag; she watched with interest as Wu Dan pulled treasure after treasure out of the Qiankun Bag.

Gu Yanqi looked at the treasures in front of her with a blank expression, never showing any sign of interest.

Gu Yanqi could not judge these treasures, but she had just set a secret signal with Ning Chen: if the treasure was average, Ning Chen would pinch her hand once; if medium, twice; if high-grade, three times; if particularly good, he would keep pinching.

All the things Wu Dan pulled out were pinched once by Ning Chen on her hand, indicating that these things were really worthless.

"I'm not saying this, but you want to dismiss me with these things? It seems that in your eyes, I am such an easy person to dismiss?"

Gu Yanqi directly stopped Wu Dan's hand from pulling out more things, and looked at Wu Dan with eyes full of stupidity.

These things were already quite precious for ordinary people, but for those cultivating immortality and arts, they were indeed things one would look down upon.

Wu Dan was somewhat surprised; he originally thought the other party was just a young girl and could be easily fooled, but he did not expect the other party to see through the value of these things at a glance.

But that made sense; since she was Miss Hongxiu's sister, she should have some skills herself.

Wu Dan secretly glanced at Miss Hongxiu and saw her looking at him with a half-smile, which scared Wu Dan into pulling out high-grade treasures immediately.

This time, Ning Chen indeed pinched Gu Yanqi's hand three times.

The thing pulled out was a fan; this fan was interlaced with purple and pink gradients, looking very beautiful, and the entire fan even emitted light; Gu Yanqi fell in love with it at once.

Seeing the look in Gu Yanqi's eyes as she gazed at the fan, Wu Dan felt his heart bleeding; he knew that he had once exerted immense effort to obtain this fan; legend said it was a fan conjured from phoenix feathers in the raging flames when the phoenix was reborn through nirvana, and its name was Nirvana.

Gu Yanqi immediately took the fan in her hand; suddenly, she felt a pain at her fingertip; for some reason, her fingertip broke slightly, and a drop of blood flowed out; the drop of blood touched the fan, and the entire fan began to emit purple and pink light; immediately, the fan suddenly merged into Gu Yanqi's chest, and after Moguoyi Society, it reappeared in her hand.

Ning Chen looked at Gu Yanqi anxiously: "What's wrong? Is there anywhere you feel uncomfortable?"
