Chapter 774: Can You Stay with Me for One Day (Please Subscribe)_1

After leaving Tianlan Peak, Xu Sheng turned to Gu Linruo, puzzled, and said, "Senior Sister Gu, I'm not sure what issue you wanted to discuss with me..."

Gu Linruo's delicate cheeks flushed with shyness, and she quietly bowed her head, asking in a faint voice, "I've just been promoted to a direct disciple, so...even if it's just to congratulate me, could you spend a day with me?"

She indeed had feelings for Xu Sheng, but now she had no idea how he truly felt about her!

Was she seen merely as a plain senior sister, or was there a mix of other emotions?

Seeing Gu Linruo's demeanor, how could Xu Sheng not understand what she was trying to express...

He spoke gently, "Of course, it's my honor to accompany a beauty like Senior Sister Gu."

Hearing Xu Sheng's agreement, Gu Linruo's whole being brightened with excitement, but she still tried to maintain her composure, "It's just your sweet words, Junior Brother Xu! But still, thank you..."

Xu Sheng replied softly, "You don't need to thank me. So Senior Sister Gu, where shall we go now? We surely can't just stay here, can we?"

Gu Linruo furrowed her brows, thought for a moment, and then her beautiful eyes lit up, "It's still early, so how about...we go for a stroll?"

Xu Sheng nodded in agreement, "Okay!"

Hence, for convenience, the two of them chose not to leave Xuantian Sect.

Instead, they headed to the most attractive place for disciples within the Xuantian Sect!

...

When Xu Sheng and Gu Linruo arrived at the free trade area inside the Xuantian Sect, they immediately drew the attention of a group of Xuantian Sect disciples...

Since he and Gu Linruo were well-recognized within the Xuantian Sect, it was very easy to identify them! In just a few seconds, they were recognized!

One of the male disciples asked curiously, "That man is Junior Brother Xu, isn't he? Why is he with Senior Sister Gu?"

Another male disciple beside him shook his head, "I'm not sure, but they seem quite intimate. Could it be that they've already become partners?"

The female disciple standing behind them lamented, "Do we even need to guess? Look at the tenderness Senior Sister Gu shows towards Junior Brother Xu. Then think about the sad state of Brother Mo Li when he pursued Senior Sister Gu. It's clear at a glance."

The other female disciples were all staring at Xu Sheng with eyes glowing, enviously saying, "I'm so envious of Senior Sister Gu! To become partners with Junior Brother Xu, how good would that be if it were me?"

"Just dreaming is enough. Senior Sister Gu and Junior Brother Xu make such a well-matched couple! Whether it's talent or appearance, they're both so strong!"

"Indeed, it's only a dream. A man like Junior Brother Xu, only a woman who saved the world in her past life could become his partner," they sighed.

One of the female Miao Miao Peak disciples among them, upon seeing Xu Sheng and Gu Linruo together, exclaimed with a look of amazement on her delicate face, "That's... Xu Sheng and Senior Sister Gu Linruo! Have they gotten together in such a short time?"

She was none other than Yin Luo, who entered the Xuantian Sect alongside Xu Sheng!

When she thought of how she had treated Xu Sheng initially, her heart was filled with reluctance...

If she had realized Xu Sheng's talent earlier, couldn't she have been the one to become his partner?

Subconsciously, her hands clenched tightly...

The female Miao Miao Peak disciple beside Yin Luo noticed her gloomy expression and asked quietly, "Sister Yin, it's said that you and Xu Sheng entered Xuantian Sect together. Could it be that you like him too?"

"Stop joking. Which female disciple doesn't like such a handsome and strong man like Junior Brother Xu?

"To be honest, although Sister Yin looks good, in terms of talent, she doesn't match up to a man like Junior Brother Xu. On the other hand, Junior Brother Xu and Senior Sister Gu being together, that's a perfect match of talents and looks!"

Yin Luo's expression became much uglier at once, but she had no choice but to muster a forced smile, "You sisters are joking. I am naturally... not worthy..."

Indeed, even a proud woman like Senior Sister Gu Linruo had fallen for Xu Sheng. Was she truly worthy?

...

Hearing the intense discussions among the Xuantian Sect disciples, Xu Sheng gently turned to Gu Linruo beside him and said, "Senior Sister Gu, don't mind what they're saying!"

Gu Linruo's beautiful eyes flickered a few times, and she whispered, "That's something ... I should be saying to you, Junior Brother Xu ..."

Xu Sheng asked in confusion, "Senior Sister Gu, what did you just say? It was a little too quiet ..."

Gu Linruo shook her head and pointed at a shop in front, "No ... nothing! Let's go browse that Xuanbao Pavilion, I need to buy some things!"

Xu Sheng's eyes narrowed slightly, "Xuanbao Pavilion?"

He then thought of Ouyang Qin from last time, a nice guy though he was, but one who really couldn't get along with Mu Yun ...

Gu Linruo, thinking Xu Sheng was reluctant, spoke up, "Junior Brother Xu, don't you want to browse that shop? Then we ..."

Xu Sheng came back to his senses and said with a light smile, "Let's go, Senior Sister. We'll visit Xuanbao Pavilion. The weapons there are indeed quite good!"

Having said that, he gently took hold of Gu Linruo's wrist and slowly walked towards the Xuanbao Pavilion ...

Being led by the wrist in such a passive manner, Gu Linruo was stunned for a moment. A few seconds later, she realized she had made physical contact with Xu Sheng!

"Eh ... eh??"

Her face, as beautiful as that of a fairy, suddenly heated up, and a hint of a blush spread quietly across her cheeks ...

Although Xu Sheng's action surprised her, she did not choose to speak up and stop him, as she found she didn't dislike the feeling, even taking some pleasure in it ...

Perhaps, she really had fallen for Junior Brother Xu?

Otherwise, why wouldn't she feel a bit of aversion!

While she was grappling with her thoughts, the two had already arrived at the door of Xuanbao Pavilion ...

"Crack"

After Xu Sheng pushed the door open, they stepped inside ...

Just like the last time they visited, what came into view weren't weapons but those elixirs constantly exuding a fragrant scent ...

Today, the person overseeing Xuanbao Pavilion was still Ouyang Qin!

Upon seeing Xu Sheng and Gu Linruo come in together, Ouyang Qin's handsome face first showed a bit of surprise. But, when he noticed that the former was holding the latter's wrist, he seemed to have an epiphany!

Without a change in expression, he said, "Junior Brother Xu, Senior Sister Gu, welcome to Xuanbao Pavilion."

Gu Linruo nodded slightly and said, "Ouyang Senior Brother!"

Xu Sheng also spoke up, "Ouyang Senior Brother, we meet again."

Ouyang Qin chuckled and said, "Indeed, we meet again. I didn't expect Junior Brother Xu to become companions with Senior Sister Gu, that is unexpected!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Linruo, whose cheeks were very rosy, bit her thin lips without denying it outright!

This made Ouyang Qin even more certain of the deep relationship between the two!

Xu Sheng let go of Gu Linruo's wrist and said with a faint smile, "Ouyang Senior Brother is joking. Today, I am accompanying Senior Sister Gu to make a purchase, and also to celebrate her promotion to Direct Disciple yesterday!"

Upon seeing this small action, Gu Linruo's face dimmed a little, but she didn't show it ...

At that moment, Ouyang Qin's gaze shifted back to Gu Linruo, and he tenderly asked, "Is that so? Then, may I know what Senior Sister Gu is planning to buy from Xuanbao Pavilion? I can give you a 20% discount on everything!"
