Chapter 41

It was just a game, and humans and demons were not important at all. Even in the real cultivation world, as long as one was not an idiot, they would not go against their own interests.

But today, Song Xianxun was so engrossed in the game that she yelled at Gu Bai angrily when she saw that he wanted to help the demon Qian Mo Xi.

[Human] Fairy Ningbo: You can't let him go!

He's a demon, and you're a human. How can you help a demon? If you let him go, he'll bring disaster to the world!

Gu Bai was very sure that this girl must have been electrocuted and could not differentiate between the game and reality. He rolled his eyes at her and controlled his character to smile.

[Human] Shang Guanyu: You wanted to kill me just now. Why should I listen to you?

A magic treasure is worth more than a hundred thousand yuan. Big sister, is there something wrong with your head? Besides, even if he doesn't give it to me today, I'll let him go if you want to stop me!

Song Xianxun was furious when he called her 'big sister', and Ling Chen beside her also got angry. Their characters glowed red.

[Human] True Monarch Dongfang: Bitch!

[Human] Fairy Ningbo: Shang Guanyu, no matter what grudges we have, we're all humans. We should fight against the demon race together … Hmph, big demon, do you think that this little bit of profit will make a human cultivator do something harmful to the human race?

You underestimate us too much!

The last sentence was obviously directed at Qian Mo Xi.

Gu Bai almost laughed out loud. It seemed that Song Xianxun had been electrocuted when she entered the game today. She was so engrossed in the game that she could not extricate herself.

The face of the pretty girl with pink eyebrows beside her also seemed to be twitching.

Qian Mo Xi looked her up and down for a while before speaking.

[Demon] Qian Mo Xi: Little bit of profit?

Then what about immortal weapons?

Whoever helps me today, I'll give him an immortal weapon.

Immortal … immortal weapon!

The moment Qian Mo Xi said that, the cave instantly quieted down. Only the sounds from the game world could be heard. Everyone, including Gu Bai, stared with wide eyes.

Playing games was actually very expensive. "Cultivation Records" was a game that required money to play. If you wanted good equipment, you could only buy it with money other than fighting the boss. The magical equipment just now was already very expensive. This immortal equipment was not something that ordinary players could play with.

A Celestial Artifact would cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. Many players were poor in real life, but those who owned Celestial Artifacts in the game were all super rich.

Of course, selling it at such a high price was also to cater to the game "Cultivation Chronicles". After all, in the Cultivation World, immortal artifacts were not easy to obtain.

Now, this big brother had given away either magical treasures or celestial equipment. If this person wasn't a powerful gamer, then he was definitely a tycoon!

Song Xianxun was obviously shocked to the point of speechlessness. The pretty girl with pink hair beside her was already itching to come up to him.

Seeing this, Gu Bai hurriedly waved his whip, and three offensive spells fell on them, directly KO 'ing them.

[Human] True Monarch Dongfang: Bitch!

(Anger)

[Human] Fairy Ningbo: "How dare you sneak attack me!"

(Disbelief)

[Human] Pretty Pink Hair: Shangguan Yu, you shameless b * tch!

(Anger)

Hearing their curses, Gu Bai smiled. He took a deep breath and directly bought a set of loudspeakers to shout in the World Channel again.

[World] Shangguan Yu: Attention, attention, players in the World Channel.

From now on, whoever pursues Fairy Ningbo, True Monarch Dongfang, and pretty Pink Hair for a month and leaves a video as evidence, I'll give them 100,000 Spiritual Stones and a bottle of top-grade elixirs!

Although he was not as rich as Thousand Ink Centipede who could give away magical treasures and celestial equipment worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, he could still spend tens of thousands of dollars and some elixirs. Besides, now that he had activated his Alchemy skill, the elixirs were basically free.

The best way to torture people in the game was not to kill the monsters yourself, but to find someone to kill them. This kind of rich behavior of throwing money could only be described with one word, "awesome"!

Once he shouted in the World Channel, the players in the World Channel started drooling.

No one had ever heard of the Ningbo Fairy and Pink Beauty. As for Ling Chen's Dongfang Zhenjun, he was rather famous. His rank was average, but he managed to become an elder in a large sect by throwing money at them. If they were to hunt him down, they might offend the large sect.

However, nothing could resist the temptation of benefits. If Gu Bai's reward was converted into money in real life, it would be tens of thousands of dollars, which was not a small amount.

Therefore, everyone was tempted. At most, they would not do it openly, but secretly plot against True Monarch Dongfang. Who would know that they were the ones who killed him?

The person who put up the reward would definitely not leak it.

As for the other two, it was even easier. Since they had never heard of them, they were naturally insignificant people who were completely free money. Everyone began to look for their game accounts, eager to get the reward …

Song Xianxun and the others were so angry that their faces turned green. They had just been killed and changed accounts, and now they were going to be killed again!

Every time they died, they would be electrocuted once, damn it!

Gu Bai did not care about their expressions. He attacked them with a spell and directly disconnected the three of them.

Because the game characters would be electrocuted in real life when they were killed, Song Xianxun and the others were electrocuted for a full minute when they were disconnected. However, the game company had set the severity of the electrocution, so it would not kill them.

"Damn it, I have never seen such an arrogant person!" Song Xianxun took off her game helmet and complained, feeling wronged.

Wang Lele, her roommate and good friend, also threw her helmet away angrily. She said angrily, "No, Xianxun, we can't take this lying down. That b * tch Shangguan Yu has bullied us time and time again. We must find a way to vent our anger!"

"But how can we vent our anger?

At most, we can argue a little in the game, and we can't beat her. Are we going to put up a reward and find someone to kill her? "

"That's true. Damn it, that Shangguan Yu doesn't look like a girl at all. Look at the way she hit us, she looked like a man. She must be a violent dinosaur monster in real life, hmph!"

"A man-like dinosaur monster … Lele, I have an idea. Come here, I'll tell you …"

Hearing Wang Lele's words, Song Xianxun suddenly had an idea. Why did she start whispering to her?

Wang Lele smirked after hearing it. "Xianxun, I didn't know you were so evil. In the future, no guy will team up with her in the game world …"

"Yeah, a dinosaur girl is so arrogant. Ugly people are always mischievous!"

Song Xianxun snorted to vent her anger.

…

On the other side, after dealing with the few people, Gu Bai clapped his hands and looked at Qian Mo Yan.

[Human] Shang Guanyu: Alright, they can get lost. Let's talk about it slowly. You said that if I help you, you will give me a celestial item, right?

[Demon] Qian Mo Yan: I mean what I say. Help me pull out this Soul Suppressing Nail.

After being delayed for half a day, the other party was getting impatient. He was unlucky and triggered something. He had been trapped here for a month, and not everyone could help him. He had to be chosen by the system. Obviously, he was arranged to be on a hidden mission by the system. No one could do anything about it, not even the development team!

Other than the simulation of real people, this was the most special thing about Cultivation. Its program was very flexible. As long as you entered the world, all the program settings were the same as the real world. It was very flexible and smart.

Today, he finally met someone who could help him. Losing a celestial item was not as important as letting him out. Otherwise, who knew how long this game account would be trapped here? It would be a pity to lose this account.

Other than that, there was another good thing about this holographic online game, which was that the facial expressions of the characters were very clever. Therefore, Gu Bai could clearly see the expression on Qian Mo Yan's face. He smiled in his heart and continued speaking.

[Human] Shang Guanyu: Alright, but before we do it, can you give me a deposit first?

That person was right. We humans and demons cannot coexist. If I let you go, what if you kill me directly later?

[Demon] Qian Mo Yan: … Do you think I look like someone who would go back on his word?

Gu Bai did not speak. He looked up at the clear sky of the game.

Qian Mo Yan looked at Gu Bai expressionlessly. The game character with a charming appearance had an inexplicable sharpness in his eyes, as if he wanted to poke dozens of holes in his body.

But he kept looking up at the sky, ignoring him and playing dumb.

After a while, Qian Mo Yan retracted his gaze. But his eyes were still cold. He summoned a shiny celestial item from the system and placed it in front of him.

Gu Bai's eyes lit up. He accepted it without saying anything. Then, he walked in front of Qian Mo Yan.

[Human] Shang Guanyu: This celestial item is obviously of the highest quality. Thank you, big brother … But before I save you, big brother, I have something to tell you first.

[Demon] Qian Mo Yan: What?

[Human] Shang Guanyu: I don't know if you've heard what it means to go back on one's words?

[Demon] Qian Mo Yan: …

Qian Mo Yan paused. Then, in the next moment, his vision went black. After a wave of pain from being electrocuted, he found that his game character had been killed and disconnected.

On this side, once Qian Mo Yan died and disconnected, Gu Bai immediately heard a system notification sound. Then, he found that his game character's level had suddenly risen rapidly, as if he'd turned on a cheat.

There were also quite a few pieces of equipment on the ground. Moreover, a shining 'divinity' floated in mid-air. If one wanted to become a god-like player in this game world, this divinity item was a necessity.

Gu Bai happily picked up all the items and immediately left to go offline.

If it were anyone else, even if they didn't save Qian Mo Yan, they wouldn't dare to kill him. Just by looking at his equipment, they knew that the other party was definitely a god-like account. Once they became enemies, they wouldn't be able to survive in this area of the game world. Because a god-like account in this world issued a kill order, it was as powerful as the Emperor's wanted list.

However, Gu Bai was different. From the very beginning, he had no intention of saving Qian Mo Yan. In the storyline, the other party was Song Xianxun's fan. Although the two of them didn't meet on good terms today, who knew if he would help Song Xianxun again like in the storyline.

As for these potential enemies, naturally, he would kill them one by one. Even if he couldn't really kill them, this kill would at most cause the other party to drop a game level. However, it was still good. When the time came and he grew into a god-like account in the game world, then he wouldn't have to fear anyone …

A few minutes after he left and went offline, Qian Mo Yan's game character revived and returned.

The demonic and domineering male demon character searched the cave and didn't find Gu Bai's figure. He angrily fired a few attacks into the cave before stopping and leaving.

"What a good way to go back on your word!

You're the first person who dared to trick me! "

In the real world, the man wearing the game helmet opened his eyes with a livid expression. He gritted his teeth and immediately took out his phone to make a call.

"Hello, Jason. Go and check the information of a player in 'Cultivation Records' right now. Send it to me in half an hour …"

"Okay."

Half an hour later.

"So it's you …"

The livid man stared at Gu Bai's handsome holographic projection in front of him. He rubbed his chin and revealed an interested smile.
