Battle Through the Heavens: He marries Xun'er, but she refuses to consummate the marriage!

Chapter 188 You don't think that whoever is weaker is right, do you?

Xiao Yan approached Gu Fei, and his abrupt words left those around him somewhat puzzled.

"This kid actually dares to ask Brother Gu Fei to save someone? He's incredibly audacious!"

"Back then, Brother Gu Fei chose to divorce Miss Xun'er precisely because she took too much care of this boy..."

"Who is Brother Xiao Yan going to save? Could it be his mysterious master?"

Xun'er was also very puzzled at this moment.

Moreover, what exactly is the situation with his master that requires Gu Fei to save him? Can't someone else save him?

"Save them?"

Gu Fei, who was still pondering the matter of the Soul Clan, stopped and turned his gaze to Xiao Yan.

Gu Fei was slightly surprised that Xiao Yan had come to the Ancient Realm, but that was all.

He no longer cared about such things.

"Husband, do you know him?"

"I guess I've encountered him before. During my trip to the Yunlan Sect, he was spying on us from the sidelines, and he was accompanied by a remnant soul..."

Gu Fei turned his head and replied to Little Fairy Doctor.

"Young Master Gu Fei, I came to the Ancient Realm specifically to find you and beg for your help. Please, you must save my master!"

Feeling ignored by Gu Fei, Xiao Yan quickly reorganized his thoughts and repeated himself.

His tone was very sincere.

Is this how you beg for help?

Upon hearing this, Gu Fei glanced at Xiao Yan again and spoke calmly.

Upon hearing Gu Fei's words, Xiao Yan's eyes seemed to show some struggle.

He thought that Gu Fei was trying to vent his anger because of what happened between him and Xun'er back then.

For the sake of my mentor, Yao Lao.

Xiao Yan was willing to sacrifice some things.

Even a man's dignity.

The next moment, Xiao Yan slightly bent his knees, showing signs of kneeling down to Gu Fei.

"Brother Xiao Yan, what are you doing?" Xun'er saw this and immediately reached out to pull Xiao Yan back. "Even if you're begging for help, you don't need to kneel!"

"Young Master Gu Fei, it's been so long since we parted ways, I never imagined we'd have the chance to meet again here!"

Just then, Xuan Kongzi and Venerable Feng walked over. Xuan Kongzi and Gu Fei were old acquaintances, so his tone was quite relaxed.

"President Xuan Kongzi!"

Upon encountering an acquaintance, Gu Fei nodded politely, then said with a smile, "Speaking of which, I must thank Guild Master Xuan Kongzi for the strange fire he gifted me back then. Now that you're a guest in the Ancient Realm, I will certainly treat you well!"

Upon hearing this, Xuan Kongzi thought to himself, "Back then, you were the one who stole that strange fire, yet you insisted on claiming it was a gift from me."

However, despite thinking this in his heart, Xuan Kongzi still wore a flattering smile: "Those rare and precious treasures like strange fire belong to the capable!"

"Young Master Gu Fei's ability to subdue the Three Thousand Blazing Flames precisely demonstrates his affinity with extraordinary flames!"

With the appearance of Xuan Kongzi, an acquaintance, Xiao Yan was once again ignored by Gu Fei.

"Young Master Gu Fei, what exactly do you want me to do before you agree to save my master?"

Ignored once again, Xiao Yan grew anxious, and his tone involuntarily carried a hint of resentment as he questioned him.

This is his condition.

It seemed as if Gu Fei was making things difficult for him.

"What do you want from me?"

Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, Gu Fei first frowned in displeasure.

"Oh!"

Then, seemingly amused by Xiao Yan's actions, Gu Fei retorted, "Do you think we have a very good relationship? That I have to help you just because you ask?"

As soon as Gu Fei finished speaking, Xiao Yan froze on the spot, his face turning quite awkward.

On relationships.

His relationship with Gu Fei was definitely not good.

Moreover, this was the first time the two had officially met.

From both a moral and logical standpoint, Gu Fei indeed had no obligation to help.

"I already said that!"

"When you ask someone for a favor, you need to show the proper attitude!"

"Moreover, the person you seek to save is right here, yet you refuse to come out and see me in person. Where is your sincerity?"

Gu Fei continued speaking for a few more minutes.

Every word he uttered was reasonable and contained no hint of looking down on anyone.

"This Xiao Yan is so bad at interpersonal relationships! Doesn't he understand such an obvious principle?"

"When we ask an alchemist to concoct medicine, we must offer a generous gift. Not only must we provide our own medicinal herbs, but they must be double the amount!"

"To ask someone for a favor without clearly stating what you want, and without offering any gifts, yet still trying to get the other person to agree—this is truly the most absurd person I've ever encountered!"

The onlookers all sided with Gu Fei, not only because of his identity, but also because Gu Fei was in the right.

This is not a place where the weak are right.

"I almost misunderstood Brother Gu Fei again!"

Xun'er also realized that Gu Fei's words were not meant to make things difficult for Xiao Yan, but were simply a normal request for payment for helping someone.

"Young Master Gu Fei, please forgive us; it was our rudeness!"

When Xiao Yan was in an embarrassing situation, Yao Lao's soul floated out of Xiao Yan's storage ring.

His ethereal, aged figure drew surprise from many around him as soon as it appeared.

"Isn't this the Medicine Master from back then?"

"Rumor has it that the Medicine Master has been dead for many years, but it turns out his soul still lingers in the world!"

After the old man's soul appeared, he paid no attention to the surrounding whispers. Instead, he cupped his hands towards Gu Fei and said sincerely, "Young Master Gu Fei, it's not that I'm unwilling to show myself... I'm currently just a soul, and it's indeed inconvenient for me to appear in public..."

"I have come here to ask Young Master Gu Fei to rebuild my physical body!"

Yao Lao was much more efficient than Xiao Yan, stating his purpose without wasting any words.

"The Medicine Master was once known as the number one alchemist in Central Plains!"

"Now that he's personally stepping in, surely Young Master Gu Fei will give him face!"

"Yes, the Medicine Venerable's resurrection is a great favor, which can be exchanged for a large number of high-grade pills in the future. The ancient clans shouldn't refuse!"

"What a joke! This pathetic scoundrel dares to call himself the number one alchemist?"

"The skill level of alchemists in the Central Plains is truly laughable!"

As some powerful figures from the Central Plains sects were flattering Yao Lao, two mocking voices suddenly rang out, instantly causing Xiao Yan's eyes to fill with bloodshot.

"How dare you insult my master!"

Xiao Yan clenched his fists, staring intently at the two people who had spoken earlier.

At this moment, the old doctor was also extremely angry, staring coldly at the two of them.

The speakers were two young men dressed in alchemist robes. Clearly, they were from the Medicine Clan and knew that Yao Chen was a member of their clan who had been expelled from the clan.

"Brother Xiao Yan, don't be impulsive! You're no match for those two!"

Xun'er quickly tried to persuade Xiao Yan.

The two young men from the Medicine Clan were both at least Seven-Star Dou Zun level. If Xiao Yan were to fight them, he would definitely be the one to suffer.

"As expected of a good-for-nothing, even the apprentices he taught are just as useless!"

Undeterred by the angry glares of Xiao Yan and his disciples, the two members of the Medicine Clan continued their mocking remarks.
