After returning, Yun Jin also told Gun Gun about the agreed upon duel.
Gun Gun's appearance was originally somewhat silly and cute. After Yun Jin finished speaking, the entire beast appeared even more dazed.
"Big Brother actually had such a past!" Huan Huan at the side was already indignant, "Big Brother, I support you, defeat them all!"
Yun Jin didn't explain in too much detail, but as soon as Huan Huan heard it, she became extremely angry.
For a spirit beast, being abandoned by one's master was an extremely serious matter! A spirit beast that is abandoned or released, , it would still be fine if it could move past it, but if it cannot move past it, at best, its cultivation will fall greatly, at worst, its life may be in danger.
Spirit beasts are not the same as humans. If a contract has been formed, then that means treating the other as family, never abandoning them.
Huan Huan was a rather proud spirit beast. Even when Liuli Zhenren appeared that day, she only agreed to enter her storage pouch, and did not sign any contract with Liuli Zhenren.
If the two got along harmoniously later, then there would be the possibility of a contract.
Before Liuli Zhenren sent her to Yun Jin, she had already communicated with Huan Huan beforehand. Huan Huan was willing to meet Yun Jin, so that day Liuli Zhenren brought her out. And only then did she meet such a good master.
In situations similar to Gun Gun's, the original master was simply inhumane.
Gun Gun scratched his head, "Master, how did you know my original master was him?"
Gun Gun thought he hid it very well, and did not expose anything.
"These small matters, who wouldn't find out if they casually asked around?" Yun Jin raised her brows: "What, do you not want to defeat him openly, and then make him regret?"
Gun Gun's eyes lit up.
Want!
Of course he wanted to.
At that time, he really cultivated day and night without rest, only wanting to obtain just a little bit of recognition.
In fact, compared to when he had first been contracted, he had already improved a lot.
But the growth cycle of spirit beasts was originally long. Compared to slowly cultivating one, Han Xiaoyu clearly preferred contracting a ready-made spirit beast.
So his rate of improvement simply couldn't enter the eyes of the other.
After being abandoned, the spirit beasts in the Spirit Beast Pavilion were all very worried about him, but this instead wounded Gun Gun's self-esteem even more, so he became mischievous and unruly, just to let all spirit beasts know, so what if he's abandoned? He, Gun Gun, still lived very well.
But.
When the night was quiet and deep.
Gun Gun would still dazedly sit there, dazedly staring at that sliver of moonlight outside the window for the entire night.
Did he want revenge?
Did he want that person to regret?
He wanted that!
Of course he wanted that!
But Gun Gun didn't know whether such thoughts were correct or not, whether this would bring trouble to Yun Jin.
He cherished his current master very much, and didn't want to bring her any trouble.
So those past trivial things didn't need to be fussed about anymore, right?
So, after contracting with Yun Jin, Gun Gun never mentioned the matter of revenge again.
Even though he knew Han Xiaoyu had returned, he didn't reveal even the slightest reaction.
He believed he already had the identity of big brother. He had to be mature and reliable, to be a good example for Huan Huan, and for the future spirit beasts of master.
But master said.
She had already arranged the duel. She wanted to see him openly defeat Han Xiaoyu.
"Master, wouldn't that make us seem too vengeful." Gun Gun was a bit uneasy, "I actually don't mind it."
The always fearless Gun Gun actually showed this side of him. Yun Jin couldn't help but laugh.
She said calmly, "Gun Gun, remember this. In this world, there are many people who will speak many great principles. They will say to be tolerant, to endure, to be grateful for suffering, to forgive those who hurt us. These words can be spoken by everyone because the suffering and harm did not fall upon them, so they speak with righteousness."
"You've followed me for so long, you should know my conduct. I never follow those things. I cannot endure grievances. If I must endure, then I will return it multiplied by thousands later. I repay every enmity. I write down anyone who treats me poorly in my little book, not a single one will be let go."
Yun Jin spoke this kind of "rebellious" reasoning with utter righteousness, "Of course, I will naturally treat those who treat me well ten thousand-fold better. Only then would it be reasonable, and would I be satisfied in my heart. Gun Gun, you are my spirit beast. If you suffer grievances and do not dare give it back, I will look down on you."
Gun Gun's eyes became even brighter.
He suddenly stood up, extremely arrogant, "Master, just you wait! Previously, he treated me with indifference. Tomorrow, I will make him unable to even reach me!"
While muttering quietly, he also began considering how to win tomorrow in a sufficiently flashy way.
As for whether he could win?
Gun Gun never worried about this!
After one bloodline awakening, not only did he become a top-grade spirit beast, his racial skills were also stronger to an outrageous extent!
Huan Huan, too, ran over with interest. The two spirit beasts chattered loudly, discussing how to win as spectacularly as possible.
Yun Jin didn't care about the two little ones. She was just about to slowly drink tea when she suddenly felt something, and looked toward the door.
It was Gu Jinghong.
He had come out of seclusion.
"Master." Gu Jinghong bowed respectfully.
His Blood Qi Art had been completely converted.
From now on, it would be a proper orthodox cultivation technique, no longer related to demonic cultivation.
Yun Jin checked Gu Jinghong's panel.
After this conversion, Gu Jinghong was still at Early Nascent Soul Stage, but his spiritual power purity was far better than before. In terms of actual strength, he's definitely much stronger than before.
Not bad. Not bad.
Yun Jin nodded in satisfaction.
Now that the hidden danger of the Blood Qi Art was removed, and with the servant contract restraining him, Gu Jinghong could now be sent out to help her earn Emotion Points.
"Not bad. Rest well for a few days. In a few days, I may send you out on a task." Yun Jin said.
"Yes." Gu Jinghong replied. In his narrow fox-like eyes flowed an extremely deep emotion, "To be able to serve Master, this subordinate is infinitely overjoyed."
Yun Jin rolled her eyes, "Stop flattering me."
She glanced at his panel and suddenly remembered something.
This Gu Jinghong, aside from cultivation, was also experienced in level 2 formations, and proficient in level 3 formations.
Yun Jin remembered.
When she first checked his panel, level 3 formations were only rudimentary, but now they were proficient.
It seemed Gu Jinghong, troubled by the Blood Qi Art earlier and not daring to cultivate his spiritual power, had instead made breakthroughs in formations.
"System, I can forcibly raise Ye Cheng's skill by one level. Gu Jinghong is my servant, everything of his belongs to me. So logically, the skills he knows should also be mine, right?" Yun Jin asked.
The system voice sounded, "Only formations produced by the system that Gu Jinghong learns can activate this effect."
Yun Jin understood.
At the time, forcing Ye Cheng to level up happened after she taught him the three system-modified techniques.
When it comes to Gu Jinghong, it's the same.
He must learn the system-simplified formations, then would his formation achievements reflect onto her.
This made things slightly troublesome, but only slightly.
Before sending Gu Jinghong out to handle tasks, she should first extract all the formation achievements. Then she could lie down and gain formation experience.
Thinking so, Yun Jin looked at Gu Jinghong, "Jinghong, you also cultivated the Dao of Formations, yes? Do you have some basic formations? Teach me a few."
