Chapter 220 Fusion of Soul Bones

"..."

Ling Yan didn't speak anymore, she just watched quietly as the young man walked into Ling's mansion and closed the door.

But the moment the door closed, a drop of tear also fell to the ground.

"Let's go, tell me your story and see if there is any solution."

Gu Yi didn't want to say anything to comfort him. He knew very well that comfort would have no effect at this time.

And his words also gave Ling Yan a glimmer of hope.

"Senior, what are you..."

Ling Yan turned her head stiffly and looked at Gu Yi.

"You brought me here, didn't you just want me to help you solve this problem?"

"Although I hate being taken advantage of by others, I have to say that you have aroused my curiosity."

"What I have to do is not urgent. If it's not troublesome, I can consider helping you."

As he spoke, Gu Yi walked outside.

He didn't want to stay outside other people's homes all the time. Since he wanted to talk about something, he just had to find a place to talk it over.

"Really? Senior, you are so kind."

Seeing Gu Yi say this, a smile suddenly appeared on Ling Yan's face. She hurriedly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and followed.

"Senior! Come with me, I know the best place to stay!"

"This way, this way!"

Ling Yan once again turned into the lively and cute girl before, holding Gu Yi's shoulder and walking towards a hotel.

The decoration of that hotel is very good and it looks very grand, but the signboard has the words "Ling Family Hotel" written on it.

…

"Okay, let's talk about it."

In the hotel, Gu Yi sat cross-legged on the bed and looked indifferently at Ling Yan on the chair opposite.

"The matter started more than a month ago."

"Two months ago, Wuhun Palace unified the entire continent. This was originally a good thing. After all, we no longer have to worry about the two countries fighting each other again."

"But just a month ago, the Wuhun Palace envoy suddenly arrived here and announced that the previous city lord had been demoted to a commoner, and the new envoy would be the city lord."

"That person is what I want to talk about, Qi Tian. He has a son. Not only is he very ugly, but his personality is also different from ordinary people. He is greedy for money and lust, and he also likes to abuse his servants."

"One day, I went out to buy things, but he fell in love with me. I finally got rid of him. But the next day, my family received a marriage proposal and matchmaking from the city lord's palace."

"Our family refused in every possible way, but still couldn't stop them. In the end, they came up with a solution, which was a duel between soul masters."

"As long as I can defeat him in a soul master duel, I can reject him. But although his son is not good at all, he is very talented in cultivation. He is already a soul sect at a young age. I was just a soul master at that time. , it’s simply impossible to win.”

"In desperation, I had no choice but to run away from home and escape. But I didn't expect that my father would be responsible for this matter."

"They announced that my father must be sent to the city lord's mansion as a slave for one year in order to be exempted from his guilt. Otherwise, all the assets of our Ling family in the city will be blocked!"

"Then you will know everything later."

As she spoke, tears welled up in Ling Yan's eyes again.

"So you want to practice to the Soul Sect before that, and then compete with the so-called son of the City Lord's Mansion?"

"It's really stupid."

"Okay, that's it. You go back and have a good rest. Wait for me to come find you tomorrow and I will go to the City Lord's Mansion with you."

After saying that, Gu Yi closed his eyes.

This kind of thing couldn't be easier for him to solve. If everything went well, he wouldn't even have to take action.

"Senior, please go to bed early. I'll be waiting for you in the room!"

Seeing Gu Yi's confident look, Ling Yan immediately felt relieved.

After saying hello, he quickly left the room.

Just after she closed the door, Gu Yi slowly opened his eyes and took out the soul bone he obtained during the day.

Without any hesitation, Gu Yi began to absorb.

But the next moment, the heart-rending pain almost killed Gu Yi.

In the past, the soul bones were directly rewarded to him by the system, and he never had to suffer. This was the first time that Gu Yi felt how painful it was to absorb soul bones.

"Your second uncle, if I had known it would be so painful, I would have gone to increase my favorability."

Gu Yi complained helplessly, then continued to endure the pain and continued to absorb the soul bones.

It was not until several hours later that Gu Yi completely absorbed the soul bone into his body. At this moment, a majestic soul power also entered his body, allowing him to successfully advance to a higher level.

"It's the end. All that's left is the last step!"

Gu Yi lowered his head and looked at the strange pattern on the back of his right hand, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited. If he hadn't promised Ling Yan to help her solve the problem tomorrow, he would have entered the secret realm to take the assessment now.

…

The next morning, after Gu Yi finished washing, he quickly walked to the door of Ling Yan's room. Just when he was about to knock on the door, Ling Yan opened the door first.

"Senior, you are here! Let's leave quickly!"

Ling Yan stayed up almost all night, waiting for Gu Yi to knock on her room.

"It's too slow, let's teleport."

Naturally, Gu Yi could understand her concern for her family, and immediately used her third soul skill to teleport her to the door of the City Lord's Mansion.

"Huh? Who are you?"

Facing the sudden appearance of Gu Yi and Ling Yan, the guard at the door seemed a little overwhelmed, but he still pretended to be calm and asked.

But Gu Yi didn't reply, he just calmly took out a token, which was Gu Rong's elder order.

"Yeah! I've seen it before..."

As soon as the elder's order came out, the two Wuhun Hall guards were about to bow, but Gu Yi interrupted them. It was too troublesome.

"Okay, everyone, lead me. I want to see the city lord here."

Gu Yi put the token away and said coldly.

"yes!"

"Please come with us."

The two guards led Gu Yi toward the mansion with respectful expressions.

Ling Yan was a little stunned. She thought Gu Yi would use his strength to directly solve the problem. Unexpectedly, was he planning to use his power to overwhelm others?

So cool!

"Senior, wait for me!"

With that said, Ling Yan quickly followed Gu Yi. She wanted to see how Gu Yi could help her solve this problem.

But before a few people could enter the main hall, they were suddenly stopped.

"Huh? Ling Yan! Why are you here? Didn't I tell you to leave quickly?"

"And this kid, why did he come with you? Does he want to die?"

"Go! Go!"

The one who stopped them was the young man who had scolded Ling Yan in front of Ling's house.

There was another person beside him, an uncle who was over fifty years old and looked a little haggard.

Gu Yi ignored the young man, but couldn't help but glance at the uncle.

No need to think, this should be Ling Yan's father.

"father!"
