After traveling to this world, no matter what strange things happened, Gu Heng was able to accept them all.
Including "accidentally".
Gu Heng believed in coincidences, but not those that were too ingenious.
Meeting Jiang Lingyun was the kind of "too clever a coincidence" that he would never believe in.
But what difference does it make whether you believe it or not?
Since the objective of this side quest has been delivered to him, why wouldn't Gu Heng do it?
Somehow, he always felt that his mind was controlled by someone. If this was a trap, Gu Heng would have to jump into it!
Not for any other reason, but because the system is now broken.
It can make him feel the power of the monk.
He was no longer as disheartened as before, thinking that he would live his whole life as a mortal. After feeling this kind of power, Gu Heng would definitely find a way to practice.
Even if it means completing various demanding tasks given by the system.
He has patience and time.
"Mr. Gu, since you know everything..."
Jiang Lingyun asked tentatively.
Gu Heng nodded and said, "Master Jiang, just tell me what you want. I will help if I can."
She wants me to help her find her close friend, that's easy.
But why did Jiang Lingyun come to him? Gu Heng felt that it was probably because when she was in Yanjiang Pavilion before, she saw that he had cultivation and was at the Saint level.
Although now, Gu Heng is no longer here.
When the quarter of an hour was up, he became a mortal again.
However, Gu Heng's original intention was actually to take advantage of the situation to suppress the elder of Xiao Hall. He didn't even think about Jiang Lingyun.
It's best not to let him use any more "trial coupons".
This thing is precious.
"If that's the case, then it's easy. Master Gu saved my great elder, so please return him to me. Of course, I will repay you for saving his life!"
Jiang Lingyun said in a deep voice.
"Grand Elder...Who is your Grand Elder?"
When she said that, Gu Heng was a little confused. He thought she was asking him to find someone, but she didn't expect that she was asking him to ask for someone.
I don't think I have ever had any interaction with the grand elder of the Wanjian Immortal Sect?
"Just now your cat said that you once saved a soul. His name was Jian Xuan, and he was my great elder."
Jiang Lingyun explained.
Having said that.
It was as if Gu Heng had suddenly been enlightened.
Jian Xuan?
The guy who called himself "Master Purple Sword" when we first met, and still spoke in a very serious tone even though he has become a ghost!
Damn, it turns out he wasn't bragging.
The grand elder of the Wanjian Immortal Sect!Apart from anything else, anyone who can sit in this position must be a very powerful cultivator.
But why did he die in the wilderness?
strangeness.
"So it was him. Haha, I'm really surprised that he's almost become a wandering ghost, but he still speaks with such arrogance!"
Gu Heng couldn't help laughing, then he raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Lingyun with a smile.
Jiang Lingyun looked embarrassed.
Yes, that's right, it's Jian Xuan you are talking about.
"This is really too much of a coincidence... Never mind, since he is yours, I will return him to you."
Gu Heng muttered, his mind was in a mess. The "Purple Sword Master" he had picked up by chance in the deserted mountains turned out to be the "Sect Master's close friend" mentioned in the mission. This was too...
It's such a coincidence!
But he really doesn't need to worry about so much, it's just a mission.
Anyway, Jian Xuan has been living in his clinic for several months. He is useful. A mere ghost seems to be of no use except scaring people. He used to be very powerful, but now he is dead and only his soul is left.
But it's not right to say that he is useless, because Jian Xuan can really scare people.
Moreover, Jian Xuan didn't need to eat his soul. He just lived in the broken lamp every day. It was very quiet and he never complained about the environment.
Maybe this is the arrogance of the strong.
"If that's the case, that would be great!"
When Jiang Lingyun heard Gu Heng say this, she was immediately overjoyed.
"Master Jiang, please wait a moment. I will be back soon."
Gu Heng never procrastinates. He stood up immediately, and under Jiang Lingyun's somewhat puzzled gaze, he ran out of the teahouse, and ignored Qin Yiyao who was squatting on the side of the road and playing with a cat.
He quickly found an alley, and then...
Teleport!
Gu Heng doesn't want to tell anyone about this "teleportation" for now because it's a bit too special.
As one thousand points disappeared, the scene in front of Gu Heng changed in an instant.
The big sign of Gu's Medical Clinic was right in front of him.
There was some fine dust on the signboard. It had only been less than a few days since the shop closed, but the front yard was already covered with flower petals and leaves.
There was a tree planted in the yard, but I didn't know what kind it was. Gu Heng considered cutting it down, but gave up at the request of the little girl.
He quickly came to the front hall, took out the "Honghuang Soul Lamp" that was gathering dust in the corner, and shook it.
"Are you there?"
Then I saw the soul lamp light up.
A ball of white light floated in the lamp.
"Huh? Didn't you say you were going to the capital? Why are you back?"
Jian Xuan said in surprise.
"Stop talking, your old lover is here."
Gu Heng rolled his eyes.
