Facing Xiaochuan's questioning, Gu An counter-questioned, "Is this matter very important to you?"
Xiaochuan caught the implied meaning in Gu An's words and lamented, "Yes, it's no longer important. In fact, three hundred years ago, I felt my life was drawing close to its end. Over the years, I have often fallen into an indescribable state of sudden enlightenment. It must have been you, Elder Brother, secretly helping me."
"Thank you, elder brother."
He looked at Gu An, his expression solemn.
Gu An's mouth twitched upwards as he asked, "Just verbal thanks?"
Xiaochuan replied helplessly, "That's all I can do. What else could I do for you now? If elder brother needs my soul, just take it."
Gu An glanced at him and said dryly, "Making it sound like elder brother is some demon cultivator."
"Wasn't Sword Venerable Fudao initially considered a demon cultivator?"
"Coincidentally, I do have a soul device here. I could use you as the main soul, condemning you to never transcend."
