Of course, to these people, they truly believed they had struck it rich.

However, the reality was…

the Sky-opening Sect was earning even more!

Each outer sect disciple made continuous contributions to the Sky-opening Sect.

Although it seemed like each individual’s contributions were minor, when added up, it amounted to a staggering figure.

What’s most terrifying was that this process was still ongoing and could potentially continue indefinitely.

Currently, the total number of disciples in the outer sect was nearing the one million mark, among which…

ninety-nine percent were ninth-rank disciples.

They worked for the Sky-opening Sect for the sake of money or Elixirs.

Even though they lacked loyalty to the sect, as long as the sect could provide them benefits, they wouldn’t leave.

Moreover, as time elapsed and everyone’s accumulated contributions grew more substantial, later on…even if they were driven away, they would probably refuse to leave.

Beyond money and benefits, the affection they had cultivated for the Sky-opening Sect over such a long time made it hard for them to part ways.

Upon reaching the last great hall at the peak of Shou Mountain Peak, Xin Yun saw Chu Rui, who was engrossed in her work at the desk.

After more than a decade, the little girl of about ten years old had grown into a peerlessly beautiful woman with enchanting eyes and a captivating presence.

Every move she made exuded mature charm.

Upon seeing Xin Yun’s arrival, Chu Rui hurriedly put aside what she was doing, her eyes sweetly curving as she warmly greeted him.

Having not seen him for so long, she truly missed him.

After greeting Chu Rui, Xin Yun casually sat on the sofa and smiled as he said, “How has it been?

Po Kong hasn’t been bothering you lately, has he?”

Hearing Xin Yun’s words, Chu Rui quickly pouted and huffed, “That guy is simply too annoying.

He comes looking for me every few days, preventing me from focusing on my work.

He can’t focus on his cultivation either.

Just look…his cultivation level has already been surpassed by Yi Luo Xiang and the other two.

Yet, this guy isn’t even worried!

It’s infuriating.”

Seeing Chu Rui’s irritated demeanor, Xin Yun couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

From the current situation, even if Chu Rui hadn’t fallen in love with Po Kong, she was clearly touched.

After all…her concern for Po Kong couldn’t be feigned.

Previously, how could she have possibly cared about Po Kong’s fate, whether it was good or bad?

Although winning the love of a smart girl like Chu Rui is incredibly difficult, one must not forget that no matter how clever a girl is, she cannot remain unmoved in the face of persistent and true love!

Po Kong’s love for her, from any perspective, was sincere, without a trace of falsehood.

The smarter the girl, the more she is able to feel the genuine nature of this love.

Even if she isn’t moved immediately, as time goes on, there will always be some reward.

As of now, Po Kong had already made an initial breakthrough.

Looking at Chu Rui’s furrowed brows, Xin Yun shook his head and said earnestly, “Don’t be angry, and don’t tell me you don’t know why he’s like this.

Isn’t it all because of you!”

“Me!

Him!

This…” Faced with Xin Yun’s statement, Chu Rui suddenly became flustered, wanting to explain, but she couldn’t find the words.

Watching Chu Rui’s adorable reaction, Xin Yun smiled and said, “How about we make a bet?

If you agree to his pursuit and tell him that if he can reach Diamond Ten Stars status within three years, you’ll agree to be his girlfriend, this guy will definitely succeed!”

After listening to Xin Yun’s words, Chu Rui couldn’t help but roll her eyes.

She had to admit, if she really did as Xin Yun said, Po Kong would indeed be able to do it.

Therefore…

she didn’t dare to take that bet.

Facing Chu Rui’s eye-rolling gesture, Xin Yun shook his head and said with a smile, “Alright, don’t roll your eyes at me.

I don’t mean anything else.

But honestly, someone like Po Kong, who is so devoted and deeply in love with you, is really rare.

If you miss out on him, it’s not just his loss, but yours as well!”

With a haughty tilt of her head, Chu Rui huffed, “Hmph!

What loss could I possibly have?

Women don’t have to get married.

Living freely and comfortably on my own is also great, isn’t it?”

“Hehe…” Shaking his head with a smile, Xin Yun continued, “Okay, I’m not here to matchmake or pull strings.

How you choose is up to you two.

I just don’t want you to have regrets.”

Listening to Xin Yun, Chu Rui lapsed into a daze.

She couldn’t remain indifferent to Po Kong’s persistent affection.

Not only was he utterly smitten with her, but what was most precious was that he wasn’t clingy, nor would he shamelessly stick around her.

In fact…he rarely even spoke of his affection, and could be considered unromantic.

This guy would set aside time to visit once a month.

Whenever he did, he didn’t say much but instead looked at her with ardent, passionate eyes, making her uncomfortable.

Soon after…he would leave and not appear again until the next month.

Now, what troubled Chu Rui the most was that, after initially rejecting Po Kong several times, he completely stopped mentioning his pursuit.

Each time he came, he just looked at her without speaking, seemingly determined to silently watch over her.

Faced with this situation, Chu Rui was distressed.

In fact…if Po Kong proposed now, she would agree.

Even if she couldn’t agree to marry him, she would agree to be his girlfriend and try getting along first, which was better than dragging things out like this.

But this blockhead didn’t even utter a word about it.

Every visit was just watching, then silently leaving, leaving Chu Rui in limbo, unsure of what to do, and utterly frustrated.(To be continued, for subsequent developments, please log in to www.qidian.com.
