Chapter 141 Found the benefactor!
Chapter 141 Found the benefactor!
Wu Nian looked incredulous: "What's wrong with you?"
Yan Xu: ...
"I don't want to play with you anymore. I still have to go give Yan Qing some pastries!" God knows how many times she went around Minglin Sect with the pastries in her hands before she found Gu Han. Now she still has to deliver pastries to Yan Qing!
Yan Xu lowered his eyes, and his long and thick eyelashes trembled, as if scratching Wu Nian's heart.
It feels so uncomfortable and itchy.
"Don't be like this, I'll take you with me."
"Really? But will I disturb your conversation with Junior Sister Yan if I'm around?" As he spoke, Yan Xu's eyes turned a little red, and he looked so pitiful.
When Wu Nian saw him like this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch. He always felt that he looked weird now, but it seemed that what he said was right!
His presence would indeed disturb them.
"You are indeed a bit disturbing, so you'd better not go." Wu Nian said it very straightforwardly without any hesitation.
Yan Xu: ???
This result was different from what he expected! He just acted it out hoping Wu Nian would come and comfort him.
Yan Xu was really disappointed with himself now! He hated him for saying that out of turn, and also hated Wu Nian for not understanding the situation.
By the time he came to his senses, Wu Nian had already run far away.

"Why hasn't my benefactor come back yet?" Xue Wuji had already piled ten snowmen on the ground, but his benefactor still hadn't come back.
He wanted to continue tracking with the butterfly, but the butterfly circled around and landed in the ruined temple.
Could it be that he didn't look carefully enough and his benefactor is still inside?
But if my benefactor was inside, he should have heard the loud noise when the roof collapsed under the weight of the snow.
Xue Wuji put down the snowman in his hand, walked into the ruined temple, and planned to look for it again.
This search really allowed him to find a cellar. He released his spiritual sense and detected that there was someone underground.
"Knock, knock, knock," Xue Wuji knocked politely on the door. "Excuse me, is anyone there?"
The people below were in a panic when they heard the noise: "What, what's going on? Why would someone find their way here?"
Everyone below had an expression of panic on their faces, which Xue Wuji certainly saw. Although he didn't understand why they had such expressions when they heard the knock on the door, he still showed respect.
Afraid that the people inside couldn't hear him clearly, he even used his spiritual power to speak: "I..."
"I am Xue San, a free cultivator. I am here to repay a favor."
When they heard Xue Wuji introduce himself, the people inside turned their eyes to one of the women. It seemed that this person was the center of the group.
The woman breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that it was not a familiar name. She hid the old man and the children in a more secluded place and then opened the cellar door with the rest of the people.
What she saw was a strange handsome face. The woman frowned, feeling puzzled, but still behaved with all due courtesy.
Seeing this, Xue Wuji became even more confused.
Judging from the appearance and temperament of the woman and these people, they did not look like ordinary beggars, but there was indeed no spiritual power fluctuation in these people.
"Who are you?!" Seeing Xue Wuji didn't say anything, the woman's hand fell on the dagger at her waist.
Xue Wuji's hair was about to explode, and he hurriedly explained: "Miss, you misunderstood, I am here to repay you! I, I..."
He hurriedly took out the clothes: "This..."
After seeing the clothes, the woman's eyes became less vigilant, but her fingers still tapped lightly on the dagger from time to time.
Xue Wuji: Do I look like a bad guy? What about the most basic trust between people?
The woman didn't know what Xue Wuji was thinking, but she recognized the clothes. They were the clothes of the old man behind him.
"Somebody come!"
She whispered to the person who came, "Go and call Mr. Lian."
After apologizing to Xue Wuji, Lian Lao Zhenghao was also brought over.
"Boss, what happened?" Lian Lao stood aside respectfully.
"Come and take a look." The woman looked at the clothes in Xue Wuji's hand.
The man called Lian Lao's pupils shrank when he saw the clothes, and he immediately knelt down: "Boss, I can explain!"
The woman helped Mr. Lian up and said, "I don't mean to blame you. I just want you to check if this dress is yours."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Lian looked carefully at the clothes in Xue Wuji's hand. Although the clothes looked very new and were completely different from his own, he could still recognize them.
"This dress is underneath." Lian Lao felt his legs trembling.
"Don't worry, Mr. Lian. I'm just asking. Besides, these are your clothes and you have the right to dispose of them." She was just a little angry. These were Mr. Lian's newest clothes. When she saw that Mr. Lian didn't wear them, she specifically asked him what was going on. Mr. Lian just said that he was reluctant to wear them.
She leaned close to Mr. Lian's ear and whispered, "Mr. Lian, you always taught me that if you are poor, you should take care of yourself; if you are rich, you should help the world."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Xue Wuji and said, "I would like to thank you, Master Xue, for returning Mr. Lian's clothes."
But she still had one thing in her mind. She knew Lian Lao's style. Wherever he went, he would use the clan's secret method to get rid of his aura.
It is thanks to this secret method that they have been able to survive until now under the noses of their enemies.
But it shouldn’t be called a secret technique now, as only a few dozen people are left in her tribe.
Never mind, the past is dark and cannot be retrieved.
She will take revenge herself, and she will definitely pin those who harmed her people to the ground!
But the biggest problem she faces now is that she has no cultivation techniques. The elderly people left in the clan are just people without spiritual roots, and they have not been exposed to the clan's cultivation techniques.
Thinking of this, her gaze shifted to Xue Wuji, who was chatting with Mr. Lian and smiling foolishly.
She knew that Mr. Lian would usually save money to help some people, but he would never let the people he helped know that it was him who did it.
Then the young man in front of me——
Her eyes narrowed.
Xue Wuji suddenly felt his whole body tremble, as if he was being stared at by some scary person.
"Mr. Xue, may I ask for your help?" It was not the woman who spoke, but Mr. Lian.
"Mr. Lian, just say whatever you want. I will definitely do my best!"
Lian Lao knelt on the ground and said, "Could you please give our leader a technique suitable for her?"
He could naturally think of what the gang leader could think of. He did not seek any reward, nor did he ask those who received his help to be grateful to him.
But when he saw the young man who came today, he knew that he had inadvertently helped a very powerful person.
As for Xue Wuji's claim that he was a casual cultivator, he didn't believe it at all. A casual cultivator didn't have the ability or skills to find them.
So the other party must be a disciple of a sect or school.
The martial arts techniques within the sect are not allowed to be lent to outsiders, so his original plan was to let the gang leader join the sect or school where Xue Wuji was.
