Since her rebirth, Gu Anran has been generous and heroic, always considering herself a man and never having feelings for any man.
The dual cultivation mentioned by the God Horned Ant truly pricked her heart.
Dual cultivation, cultivating with a manâ
It was simply an insult to her!
Thinking about the extremely precious Thousand Grass Resurrection Pill in her hand, Gu Anran took a deep breath, calmed herself, and said, "Brother Ant, I am a man, how could I cultivate with you?"
The God Horned Ant spread his hands and said with a bitter smile, "You are truly a little beauty, how could you be a man?"
"Brother Ant, you know, my brothers from the Demon Clan always call me big brother, right? All these years, I have always seen myself as a man, in my heart, I have never considered myself a woman!"
Gu Anran said in a deep voice.
"Though you have the heart of a man, your body is that of a woman, which completely meets the conditions for dual cultivation, donât you agree?"
The God Horned Ant licked his lips and said with a smile.
If Gu Anran were truly a man, he would never propose dual cultivation.
After all, he was a Demon Clan member with a normal orientation.
Seeing the God Horned Ant being persistent, Gu Anran felt unhappy and her brows furrowed, her gaze turning cold.
She decisively shook her head and said, "Itâs impossible to dual cultivate, I absolutely cannot accept this request!"
"Gu Anran, after all these years of our relationship, donât you understand what kind of person I am? I have virtually exhausted everything to create a bottle of Thousand Grass Resurrection Pill for you. Donât you want to agree to a simple dual cultivation request?"
The God Horned Ant said, agitated.
"Gu Anran!
After I broke through to the Peak of the Tenth Eternal Realm, it wasnât for myself, but to stand alongside you on the Ancient Road to Heaven. Why do you still refuse?"
The God Horned Ant said again.
His eyes were filled with snake-like blood streaks.
Every gesture conveyed a sense of immense power, making the atmosphere in the pavilion tense.
Ye Yun could no longer stand watching.
Damn it, he wanted to dual cultivate with his ninth junior sister?
Did he think he was just a vegetarian?
Thinking a mere bottle of Thousand Grass Resurrection Pill would intimidate his ninth junior sister was laughable.
"God Horned Ant, did you consult me, her senior brother, before proposing dual cultivation to my junior sister?"
Ye Yun slowly took two steps forward, standing in front of the God Horned Ant.
"..."
The God Horned Ant was taken aback, sizing up Ye Yun again.
He realized that this person used a secret technique to hide his cultivation base, making it unclear how deep it truly was.
However, considering the opponentâs identity as a Refining Master, he felt assured again.
In Cangnanâs path, Refining Masters focused on artifact refining, generally not having high cultivation, just possessing more magical treasures.
"Master, I am considering your junior sister! The Thousand Grass Resurrection Pill can heal Gu Anranâs injuries, and our joint effort on the Ancient Road to Heaven will increase our chances of success, isnât that a win-win situation youâd also support?"
The God Horned Ant spread his hands, looking innocent.
"Win-win? You must be dreaming!"
Ye Yun sneered.
"Master, those words are unpleasant to hear... If you think Iâm unnecessary, then Iâll just take back this Thousand Grass Resurrection Pill!"
The God Horned Antâs expression turned cold.
Without the Thousand Grass Resurrection Pill, Gu Anranâs injuries could not heal quickly, even with the Dragon-subduing Cauldron; she wouldnât qualify to return to the Ancient Road to Heaven.
This time.
He was determined to have Gu Anran.
Whoosh!
A flash of white light.
"Take it, I donât need your Thousand Grass Resurrection Pill!"
Gu Anranâs angry voice echoed by the God Horned Antâs ear, and as he raised his hand, he caught the white flash.
It was the small white bottle containing the Thousand Grass Resurrection Pill.
Seeing Gu Anranâs resolute decision, the God Horned Ant, still not giving up, said solemnly: "Gu Anran, wonât you reconsider?"
"No reconsideration, take it away."
Gu Anran said with a pale face and an indifferent expression.
If not for their years of friendship, she might have taken action long ago.
The God Horned Ant frowned, feeling powerless against Gu Anranâs unwavering nature.
"Junior sister, were you injured?"
Ye Yun asked, "surprised."
"Yes, a hundred years ago, I ventured on the Ancient Road to Heaven, narrowly escaping death, injuring my source..."
Gu Anran sighed.
"Junior sister, over the years, Iâve traveled widely and met many great practitioners. I happen to have some Sacred Healing Medicine that can treat your injuries."
Ye Yun smiled.
"Sacred Healing Medicine? Senior brother, you have something so great?"
Gu Anran rejoiced.
The God Horned Ant raised his eyebrows, emitting a cold laugh: "What Sacred Healing Medicine could surpass my Thousand Grass Resurrection Pill?"
"What does the Thousand Grass Resurrection Pill even count for? Compared to my Sacred Healing Medicine, itâs not even in the same league!"
Ye Yun chuckled lightly.
Against a small character like the God Horned Ant from the Eternal Realm, he felt no need to harbor murderous intent.
"Humph!"
The God Horned Ant, in an extremely bad mood, said with a frown: "Your claim is without proof, show me this Sacred Healing Medicine!"
Ye Yun took out a small bottle, gently shook it, and smiled at Gu Anran, saying: "Junior sister, my Sacred Healing Medicine is as fast as my Bronze Treasure Box!"
"As fast?"
Gu Anranâs eyebrows widened in disbelief.
She had witnessed her senior brother place the Dragon-subduing Cauldron in the Bronze Treasure Box, and within less than a stick of incense, it was repaired.
Could it be... that her severely injured source could also be healed in such a short time?
Thinking of this, Gu Anran was overwhelmed with excitement.
"Indeed, youâll be healed in no time..."
Ye Yun laughed and began to open the bottle.
"Ha! What a joke, are you two performing for me? To refuse my dual cultivation proposal, you put on this act, whatâs the point?"
The God Horned Antâs lips curled in a mocking smile.
Ye Yun ignored him.
This little God Horned Ant would soon face humiliation.
Whoosh!
A stream of green liquid flowed from the bottleâs mouth.
A magnificent life force instantly filled the pavilion within the clouds.
"What is this? Such abundant life energy?"
Gu Anranâs eyes widened, watching the green stream flow into her body and vanish.
The next moment.
She felt an indescribable comforting energy circulating within, her injured source was rapidly healing.
"What the... what kind of Sacred Healing Medicine has such powerful effects?"
Beside her, the God Horned Ant stared in shock at the rapid healing of Gu Anranâs injuries, completely immobilized like a statue.
He never dreamed.
Such a miraculous Sacred Healing Medicine could exist in this world.
This Sacred Healing Medicine surpassed his Thousand Grass Resurrection Pill by tens of thousands of times.
In just seven or eight breaths.
Gu Anranâs injuries had completely healed.
Ye Yun flicked his wrist, and the green liquid flowed back into the small white bottle.
"Junior sister, how do you feel now?"
Ye Yun smiled and asked.
"Senior brother, itâs amazing, my injuries are all healed!"
Gu Anran was extraordinarily excited and couldnât help but rush over, tightly embracing Ye Yun.
"This..."
Watching the intimate embrace between the senior and junior sister, the God Horned Antâs eyes twitched, his mind a whirl of emotions, feeling utterly suffocated.
A voice suddenly echoed in his mind.
"Damn it, what kind of freak is this senior brother of Gu Anran?"
