The Good-for-Nothing's Counterattack: Full-time Spiritual Master

His eyes searched around eagerly, and finally locked onto Gu Li.

There was a hint of blame in his eyes, but more of it was relief at having recovered what he had lost.

Gu Li looked at his slightly embarrassed yet somewhat cute appearance, and couldn't help but stretched out her hand and gently waved it in front of his eyes, teasing: "Did you sleep stupidly?"

When Xi Zi Han heard this, the worry and anger in his heart were suddenly ignited.

Without hesitation, he reached out his hand and tapped Gu Li's forehead hard. He frowned and said with a hint of complaint in his tone, "Can you not go alone next time? We agreed to go to other continents together, but you ran away by yourself. We have to work hard to catch up with you."

Gu Li covered the place where he was hit and said dissatisfiedly: "Do you have to hit me so hard?"

Xi Zihan frowned, with a hint of fear in his voice, and said to Gu Li: "Do you know that you are almost scaring us to death?"

Gu Li said hurriedly: "Wrong, wrong!"

The worry and anger in Xi Zihan's heart could not be calmed by a simple apology, so he kept complaining for a long time before letting her go.

When his emotions calmed down a bit, Xi Zihan looked around and asked, "Where are the others?"

Gu Li shook his head helplessly and responded: "I only contacted Yun Xi and Xiao Erzi, and the others have not replied yet."

Xi Zihan's brows frowned even more tightly. He quickly took out the sound transmission talisman, his eyes full of anxiety and concentration, and sent messages to several people one by one.

Gu Li comforted him softly, "Don't worry too much. The life locks in our bodies are connected. They are not in danger of life at the moment."

Xi Zihan nodded slightly, but his worry still remained.

"By the way, all the Shadow Guards also jumped in." Xi Zihan added.

Gu Li responded, "I know, but we have only contacted Xiao Erzi so far. The others are still missing. However, I have told them the location, and they will go there when they can receive the sound transmission note. I just hope nothing happens to them."

"Then where do we go to meet them now?" Xi Zi Han asked.

Gu Li thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to the small town on the eastern edge of the desert first. We'll tell you the exact address after Yun Xi and the others arrive. As for the others, let them meet up near the Star Palace."

When Xi Zihan heard the name "Star Palace", a trace of doubt appeared in his eyes: "Star Palace?"

Seeing this, Gu Li told Xi Zihan everything he knew about the Star Palace.

Afterwards, the two of them did not delay any longer and continued on their journey.

They walked in the desert for several days. The scorching sun baked the earth mercilessly, and the howling wind blew up gusts of yellow sand.

Finally, they walked out of the desert.

From afar, small villages are scattered in an orderly manner before your eyes, and curls of smoke slowly rise up, adding a bit of vitality and fireworks to this desolate land.

Gu Li and Xi Zi Han got off the wolf cub, patted its head gently, let it go back to rest, and then the two walked through the village.

"How long will it take them to arrive?" Xi Zi Han asked as they walked.

Gu Li held the sound transmission talisman tightly in his hand: "They have already arrived in this area and are waiting for us in the town of Longde."

Xi Zi Han nodded, then walked towards a villager and politely asked for directions to the town.

After a while, he came back and said to Gu Li, "It's not far from here to that town, just a few dozen miles away."

Gu Li heard this and said, "Let's go!"

"Wait a moment." Just as Gu Li and the other person were about to leave, the woman that Xi Zihan had asked for directions just now stopped them.

Xi Zihan turned around and asked doubtfully, "Is there something wrong?"

The woman had a kind smile on her face. She looked Xi Zihan up and down as if she was examining a precious treasure. Then she nodded with satisfaction and asked, "Young man, which village are you from?"

Xi Zihan was a little confused by this sudden question, but still answered honestly: "I'm not from here."

The woman then asked, "Is that so? How old are you?"

Xi Zihan was getting more and more confused, and said with a hint of impatience: "Just tell me what you want to say."

The woman then smiled and explained the reason: "It's like this, I think you're a nice person, so I want to introduce you to a girl."

Xi Zihan's mouth twitched slightly, and he quickly waved his hand and said, "No... no need, we have something else to do, so we'll leave first."

The woman was relentless and took a step forward to grab his arm: "Wait, why are you in such a hurry to leave? It's a rare chance to meet you."

Xi Zi Han was so scared that he pulled his arm out and quickly hid behind Gu Li.

When Gu Li saw Xi Zi Han's embarrassed look, the corners of her mouth curled up wildly, but her good upbringing made her hold back from laughing out loud.

Curious, she asked, "Do you want to introduce your daughter?"

The woman looked at Gu Li warily and asked, "Are you his wife?"

Gu Li shook his head: "No, he is my brother."

After hearing this, the woman smiled again: "So it's my sister."

"Sister?" Gu Li's heart moved, and he teased, "Do you want to introduce yourself to him?"

The woman said confidently: "Yes, I am the most beautiful girl in our village. What else can he not be satisfied with?"

Hearing this, Xi Zi Han couldn't bear it anymore. He picked up Gu Li, and the spiritual power in his body surged. In an instant, he flew quickly towards the direction of the town.

His figure was like a flash of lightning, and he disappeared in the village in the blink of an eye. Only Gu Li's laughter could be heard in the distance: "Hahahaha, Xi Zihan, hahahaha! I thought she wanted to introduce her daughter to you. I even wanted Yun Xi and the others to come find us, hahahaha!

In the end, she fell in love with you, hahahaha! You have a really popular face, hahaha!"

Xi Zihan's face turned dark, he felt ashamed and annoyed, and threw Gu Li from his shoulder down.

Gu Li quickly steadied herself and saw Xi Zihan's face, as dark as the bottom of a pot, staring at her. She burst out laughing again.

Xi Zihan gritted his teeth and said, "Have you laughed enough?"

Gu Li pursed his lips, trying hard to suppress his laughter and said, "Enough of laughing, enough of laughing, let's go find Yun Xi and the others!"

Half an hour later, in a room of an inn in the small town, veins bulged on Xi Zihan's forehead as he stared at the two women who were laughing so hard and pounding the table with their hands.

I gritted my teeth and wanted to go up and give them a couple of punches.

Seeing this, Gu Er, who was standing by, flashed and quickly stretched out his arm to stop Xi Zihan.

Although his face showed some restraint, the slightly raised corners of his mouth still revealed his inner laughter. He said softly: "The two young ladies are still young, don't bother with them."
