Xiao Hua said

"Host, the feeling you have towards Gu King and Little Red is called love."

After speaking, Xiao Hua thought about the interaction between the Host and them.

Then shook her head, correcting herself,

"No, it’s friendship."

In the end, Xiao Hua confused herself with her own words.

So she continued flipping through the book noisily, trying to find an answer.

Under Xiao Hua’s explanation, Su Yan half-understood.

Su Yan’s perception of matters of love and affection was always faint and slow.

But she still understood a little.

So when she went shopping with Gu King and Little Red,

she bought one of every dessert and snack on the street.

Instantly, Gu King, who had been keeping a cold and awkward face, brightened up.

They continued shopping until it was completely dark.

Su Gu spoke up,

"In the future, you should take us out shopping more often."

Su Yan glanced at him,

"Why not choose to take Little Red out by yourself?"

Su Gu took a bite of the candied haws,

"It’s different."

After saying that, Su Gu didn’t continue to explain.

He happily crunched on the candied haws.

As they walked, they somehow ended up in front of the Martial Arts Tournament’s stage.

The stage there had already been set up properly.

The competition would officially start in three days.

A proclamation was also posted on a bulletin board nearby.

It emphasized the competition rules.

Occasionally, people would stop and watch.

Someone inquired,

"Hey, this year’s Martial Arts Tournament seems much easier than before. Just win with martial arts skills to become the Martial Arts Alliance Hierarch??"

"Yeah, I also found it strange.

In the past, no matter what, one would need a certain martial arts prestige.

What if the chosen Martial Arts Alliance Hierarch fails to gain others’ respect?"

The onlookers were worried...

A passerby joined the discussion,

"You guys are dumb. In this competition, whoever has the strongest fists is the boss. If anyone disagrees, just fight it out."

Suddenly, those who originally had objections thought, it makes sense.

No one expected the simplest and most brutal way to be the fairest.

Su Gu, eating his candied haws, watching, spoke up,

"Sister, are you going to register?"

Su Yan thought for a while,

"Probably."

After all, the real culprit who poisoned the village had not been found yet.

Su Gu, puzzled,

"If Sister becomes Martial Arts Alliance Hierarch, can you command all heroes?"

Su Yan looked at him,

"What do you want to do?"

Su Gu thought for a while,

"Make these martial arts heroes line up to buy me candied haws."

As they talked, they walked back towards the inn.

Su Yan spoke up,

"Once this matter is resolved, let’s go home."

Su Gu nodded,

"Alright"

No matter where Su Yan went, he had no objections.

He would follow anyway.

In the sunset, one tall and one short, their shadows stretched long.

Their leisurely posture stood out among the busy crowd.

As if the surrounding world would change, but they would remain unchanged.

Occasionally, the sound of the two of them talking could be heard.

Su Gu

"Is the Main God very powerful?"

"Okay"

"So the Main God who bullied you, was it because you couldn’t beat them that they bullied you?"

"No"

"I turned humanoid."

"Hmm"

"I have also cultivated the Ice Heart Scripture to the Ninth Level."

"Hmm, ... what do you want to say?"

"If someone bullies you again, I can help you."

Su Gu, biting on his candied haws, said this sentence.

Su Yan turned her head, looking at Su Gu.

It was the first time she looked at Su Gu so earnestly and carefully.
