Gu Zhiqi saw her like that and immediately stood up, moving aside, "No need for thanks, I’m just taking someone’s money to do their bidding."
Gu Xiyue paused for a moment.
Hearing Gu Zhiqi’s words about distancing herself, the corner of Gu Huaijin’s mouth twitched with a hint of helplessness. He originally wanted to say something to bring the two closer, but remembering that Gu Zhiqi treated him the same way, he instantly decided not to say anything.
Seeing that both Gu Huaijin and Gu Xiyue remained silent, Gu Zhiqi didn’t mind and looked at Gu Xiyue, saying, "There is a problem with your Ancient Martial Heart Method. You mustn’t continue to cultivate it anymore, or else, it will still endanger your life."
I initially thought that the problem with the mental methods of the people in the Ever Winning Army was just a coincidence, but even Gu Xiyue, who is the female protagonist, has a problematic mental method. It seems it’s not a matter of coincidence.
As she pondered, suddenly the voice of Chubby Chiu rang in her mind, "Beep~ A world-saving mission has been triggered: identify the cause of the incomplete mental methods of the little world and resolve the issue with incomplete mental methods."
"Identifying the cause is doable, but isn’t this mission of solving the problem a bit too much?"
There are so many ancient martial artists in this world, it is possible that the mental methods of a large portion of them are incomplete.
How is she supposed to solve it? One by one, helping them to complete theirs?
Upon hearing this, Chubby Chiu chuckled twice, "Don’t panic, maybe once you’ve figured it out, the problem will be solved. Besides, this mission isn’t meant to be completed in the short term. You could take a year, ten years, or even a hundred years to finish it~"
Typically, once an upgrade mission is triggered, tasks that are closely related to the world’s development get triggered too, hence being categorized as world-saving missions.
But at this moment, no upgrade mission has been triggered. Still, this mission has been categorized as a world-saving one, indicating that it will take a long time to complete and will impact the upgrade. Therefore, it has been classified under world-saving missions.
After hearing this, Gu Zhiqi was reluctant to take on the mission, realizing it was extremely time-consuming and would interfere with her retirement plans.
"Although the mission is difficult, the rewards are substantial. Most importantly, while completing the mental methods, you can also make a profit," Chubby Chiu interjected with a smile.
Gu Zhiqi: "... Fine."
She accepted the task reluctantly.
After hearing Gu Zhiqi’s words, Gu Xiyue just froze in place.
Problems with the mental method?
And she can’t cultivate it anymore in the future?
So, she’s stuck at the peak of the fourth-order from now on?
Seeing the two girls lost in thought, one dumbfounded and the other dazed, Gu Huaijin fell silent for a few seconds before he looked at Gu Xiyue and said, "If you can’t cultivate this mental method, simply change it for another."
Upon hearing this, Gu Xiyue first felt stunned, then she relaxed and smiled.
Right, only her mental method can’t be cultivated, not that all the mental methods in the world can’t be. She just needs to switch to another one.
Her lips curved, and she nodded gently towards Gu Huaijin, "Big brother is right."
Hearing the conversation between Gu Huaijin and Gu Xiyue, Gu Zhiqi suddenly chimed in, "Switching mental methods? I have a mental method here that’s perfect for you. It’s tailor-made for you. Not for nine hundred million, not for eight hundred million, just one hundred million. Do you want it?"
Why don’t you talk so much when I talk to you normally?
Seeing that both fell silent, Gu Zhiqi looked at Gu Xiyue and spoke again, "Really not considering it?"
The corner of Gu Huaijin’s mouth twitched as he turned to look at Gu Xiyue, "The mental methods she offers are all decent, and incidents of Vital Energy going berserk are rare after practicing them. You may want to consider it."
