The Ghost King's words came from the bottom of his heart, but they drew endless rolls of eyes from the girls next to him.
Gu Chen's head was pounding. He just wanted to concentrate on defeating Huangfu Wuji. He didn't want to mention anything else, especially his children's personal affairs, for the time being.
He just met Nalan Xueling today, so it would be ridiculous for him to really get engaged to her.
However, Lu Yichen's guess did have some truth. Gu Chen was thinking in his mind, if Nalan Su really brought up this matter, how should he respond to avoid hurting his harmony.
In the next few days, Gu Chen and his group stayed at Nalan's house.
Since Nalansu received Gu Chen on the first day, he found an excuse not to see him for several days. Instead, he asked his granddaughter to come often to accompany Gu Chen.
He dragged Gu Chen away from business, and Gu Chen could only accompany Nalan Xueling on sightseeing trips every day.
This frost-free city is a strange place in Beiyuan. There are spiritual hot springs everywhere underground, so even if the outside world is freezing and snowy, the city will always be like spring.
The Spirit Vein Hot Spring is one of the wonders of Kitahara. A soak in it can not only wash away fatigue, but also reap various benefits.
Gu Chen and his gang have been traveling around various regions in the past few months. They are exhausted both physically and mentally. When they saw this spiritual pulse hot spring, they all fell in love with it.
Especially the eight girls, after hearing that this spiritual pulse hot spring can maintain youth and improve skin, they are even more enthusiastic about it.
As a distinguished guest, Gu Chen had exclusive access to the most effective spring in Wushuang City.
This spiritual vein hot spring indeed has magical effects. After Gu Chen soaked it a few times, he felt that the energy in his body that was reaching its peak was getting closer and closer, and his soul also showed faint signs of transformation.
He is only one step away from the realm of heaven and humanity. Considering this, he is no longer anxious to negotiate with Nalan Su. If he breaks through and becomes a saint, I believe he will be more confident in negotiating.
Gu Chen enters the Lingmai Hot Spring almost every day. In addition to considering the breakthrough, the other reason is that he can legitimately avoid Nalan Xueling.
Nalan Xueling was always pestering him these days, with ambiguous words and graceful movements, which really made him a little unable to resist.
As soon as he entered the hot spring, Nalan Xueling couldn't follow him, so he finally got clean.
At first, because the Nalan family was too enthusiastic, Gu Chen was a little wary of them, but after many days with nothing unusual, he gradually let down his guard, and his attention was attracted by another thing.
It's about White Ape. The little guy got a lot of mysterious eggshells from the Demon God Ancient Land, and he devours a few every day.
After eating like this for so long, all the eggshells were finally eaten, and then something unusual happened to it that had never happened before.
It began to become always drowsy, not as lively as usual, and from time to time there was uncontrollable overflow of colored light from its body.
In the past few days, he simply fell asleep while soaking in the hot springs and could not wake up no matter how he screamed.
Because of the abnormality of the white ape, Gu Chen's attention was completely attracted, and he was worried for several days.
The energy contained in the eggshell was extremely powerful. He was worried that the little guy might have eaten too much and his body could not bear it. After all, it had eaten far more than Gu Chen.
Fortunately, after careful inspection, there was nothing serious about it. The blood in the body was as strong as fire, but it fell into a deep sleep and could not be woken up.
In the end, it even began to form a thin layer of colored crystals, which was somewhat similar to the eggshell, very strange.
Gu Chen then had a guess in his mind that the little guy might be evolving.
So he put it in his animal bag to prevent it from being disturbed by others.
After that, he devoted himself wholeheartedly to his cultivation, looking forward to breaking through to the heavenly realm as soon as possible, and then directly blocking the old fox Nalan Su and asking him to have a direct conversation.
On this day, Gu Chen came to the Lingmai Hot Spring as usual, preparing to continue practicing there.
His energy and energy have reached a peak, and he estimates that he may be able to successfully break through in the next few days.
He took off his robe, walked into the hot spring with his naked body, and just sat down, enjoying the hot and comfortable spring water.
Just as he was about to start practicing, he heard some slight noises coming from outside.
"who?"
Gu Chen became vigilant.
"It's me."
A soft female voice sounded. Gu Chen recognized Nalan Xueling's voice and frowned.
This is a hot spring. Normally, whenever I come here, Nalan Xueling will be too smart to follow me. Why did I come here today?
Then, he saw Nalan Xueling wearing only a bellyband, exposing large areas of white snow on her body, and cautiously entered the hot spring with a red face.
Gu Chen's eyelids twitched. Isn't this girl too bold?
Nalan Xueling entered the hot spring without Gu Chen's consent. The thin bellyband was wetted by the hot spring water, and the scenery on her body suddenly appeared vaguely.
Gu Chen's breathing became faster and he couldn't help but close his eyes.
"Miss Nalan, this is not the place you should be." He said coldly.
"Master Gu is so cruel."
There was a bit of sadness on Nalan Xueling's pretty face, which really made me pity her.
"Mr. Gu has been avoiding me these past few days. Is Xue Ling so annoying?"
Nalan Xueling waded into the water and walked towards Gu Chen, her figure was extremely graceful.
"Of course not. Miss Nalan is a rare beauty. Who would hate beautiful things?"
Gu Chen shook his head, but kept his eyes closed.
"Then Mr. Gu, why do you turn a blind eye to me?"
Her voice reached Gu Chen, who finally had to open his eyes.
When I opened my eyes, I saw rough waves ahead, which shocked my visual senses.
"Young Master Gu should be able to see that my grandfather and even the entire Nalan family are interested in promoting your marriage."
Nalan Xueling lightly pursed her red lips and snuggled closer to Gu Chen.
"As a woman of the Nalan family, she has never had the right to decide her own life-long affairs. Xue Ling is very lucky. At least the person my family wants to arrange for me is someone I really like."
Nalan Xueling's eyes were wandering. In this hot spring, her skin, which was as white as jade and mutton fat, was rosy, and she had even more charm that charmed all living beings.
"Gu is not suitable for Miss Nalan." Gu Chen sighed.
"How can Mr. Gu be so sure that we are not suitable if we have never tried to be together?"
Nalan Xueling bit her teeth and suddenly made a bold move.
Her delicate little hands groped for Gu Chen's crotch, where she touched a gun as hard as divine iron.
"It seems that the young master is not uninterested in me, but why do you always have a cold face?"
She pretended to be sad.
"Miss Nalan, please respect yourself."
Gu Chen frowned and took Nalan Xueling's hand away, but she took advantage of the situation and threw herself into his arms.
The clothing on her body was very sparse, and Gu Chen was even more naked, and being thrust into his arms like this made people feel numb.
Whoosh!
Gu Chen suddenly disappeared into the hot spring water, settled beside the hot spring, and quickly put on a loose white robe.
