Peerless War God

As expected, the truth was so cruel and cruel.    

"This is not funny at all."    

"What? Are you sympathizing with these people? Heh, if I'm not wrong, the only person who has the right to throw his divine soul into the Mountain and River Diagram is the master of the family. No one in the Gu family dares to disobey him. If you have any complaints or thoughts, it's best to keep them in the bottom of your heart forever. This is good intentions." Han Guang said expressionlessly.    

Chen Xiao felt a little stifled in his heart and a little uncomfortable. After a while, he said, "Maybe you are right."    

Han Guang, on the other hand, did not mind. With a faint smile on his face, he said indifferently, "You are too sentimental. They are all sinners. They deserve to end up like this. Don't think too much about it. Sometimes, it's not a good thing."    

"Yes."    

After a few hours later, the two of them arrived in front of a mountain. A familiar aura appeared in Chen Xiao's heart.    

"You're there?"    

"Yes, we're here. It should be here. If I remember correctly."    

"Remember incorrectly?"    

"Yes, I have a map. The map of this world is in my mind," Han Guang said with a smile.    

"You are really cautious," Chen Xiao said.    

Han Guang chuckled, not caring at all about Chen Xiao's ridicule. He replied, "It's necessary to be cautious. I don't want to make a wedding dress for someone else."    

Chen Xiao smiled casually and did not reply. He could tell that Han Guang did not trust him either.    

If it was not for the situation, Han Guang would not be willing to join hands with him at all. He had to be more careful.    

"Then let's begin." At this time, Han Guang stood still and looked at Chen Xiao.    

"Wait, since we are working together, how are we going to split the Soul Fruits?" Chen Xiao suddenly asked.    

Han Guang did not have much hesitation on this topic and directly replied, "Of course, we will split it equally. It should be fair for us to join forces, but I hope that you can give me this Soul Fruit."    

Hearing that, Chen Xiao's face darkened as he asked: "Why?"    

"Because you already have a Soul Fruit, and I don't have one yet, right? We have to be fair," Han Guang said.    

He stared at Chen Xiao, weighing the pros and cons as well as his next move.    

Chen Xiao thought about it for a moment before agreeing and said, "Alright, sure."    

"Thank you, then let's officially begin. You will lure the Talisman Beast away, and I will take the opportunity to get the Soul Fruit," Han Guang said.    

"Sure."    

"Stand a little further away first. I'll go and break the barrier of the array."    

After Han Guang spoke, he walked to the barrier and started to form seals with his hands on the barrier.    

The entire array started to shake, and when the seals landed, it started to ripple like water. An invisible power started to spread, and the barrier started to melt like snow, leaving behind a large hole.    

Seeing this scene, Chen Xiao's pupils shrank, as he thought to himself: "As expected, what Han Guang said is true."    

To be able to break the array formation so easily, it was much easier than the brute force that Chen Xiao had used before.    

It seemed that Han Guang's status in the Gu family was much higher than what he had expected. He was not a simple existence.    

"It's your turn," Han Guang urged as he stared at Chen Xiao with an incomparably vigilant expression.    

He had already shown enough sincerity, so it was Chen Xiao's turn now.    

Chen Xiao did not hesitate and nodded. With a flash, he arrived in front of the crack. When he looked inside, he saw a symbol beast pouncing towards him. He picked up a rock and threw it at it.    

"Bastard, come on. Come and chase after me."    

As he cursed, he turned his head and ran. The talisman beast also chased after him aggressively.    

A gust of fierce wind rushed over, and the Talisman Beast flew out of the array. Chen Xiao hurriedly sped up and fled, luring it away.    

When Han Guang saw this, he chuckled and entered the array. He easily took the Soul Fruit and held it in his hand.    

"I got it. Hurry up and leave."    

Not too far away, Chen Xiao, who was still dealing with the Talisman Beasts, did not care about anything else. He immediately escaped and fled towards the forest. Only the Talisman Beast was left standing in its original spot, angrily roaring in vain.    

After a while, in a forest, Han Guang was holding the Soul Fruit in his hand, his face full of pride, as if he was unable to let go of it.    

At this time, a somewhat embarrassed Chen Xiao rushed over with a face full of nervousness. He looked at him and said, "The thing is in your hands. Don't forget your promise."    

Han Guang smiled indifferently and said, "Of course. It's just a single Soul Fruit. It's far from enough. Let's go to the next place."    

"Yes."    

Just like that, the two of them travelled for half a month and collected one Soul Fruit after another. They found a total of eight places, a total of eight Soul Fruits. Chen Xiao got four of them. If he counted the previous one, he would have five Soul Fruits on him.    

Han Guang, on the other hand, had four Soul Fruits on him.    

In the forest, the two of them were resting. They were leaning against a big tree and were dozens of meters apart from each other.    

Although the two of them did not say anything, the wariness in their hearts was mutual. Neither of them trusted the other.    

Chen Xiao did not trust Han Guang because he felt that Han Guang was hiding a lot of secrets and did not tell the truth.    

Han Guang also did not trust Chen Xiao. No matter how he looked at it, Chen Xiao was just an outsider, an outsider brought by the Duke of Zi Jin. He could not be trusted.    

They could temporarily work together to obtain the Soul Fruit, but it was almost impossible for the two of them to establish even the slightest bit of trust between them.    

In the world of cultivators, trusting this thing was too extravagant.    

Only when the two of them were so far away from each other did the two of them feel a sense of security. Chen Xiao held a Soul Fruit in each hand to recover, and asked: "What are you going to do next? Leave or what?"    

"You want to leave? It's just a few Soul Fruits, and you already want to leave?" Han Guang said disdainfully.    

He looked down on and scoffed at Chen Xiao's thoughts.    

"These Soul Fruits are already enough for me. I don't want to continue staying in this damned place, not even for a moment," Chen Xiao said.    

These words were half-truths and half-truths, but they were not false to him.    

After all, Chen Xiao didn't know much about this world in the painting. If he continued to explore, there might be even greater risks, but it wouldn't be much good for him.    

Perhaps it was the best choice to stop now. He was not greedy at all.    

Of course, when Han Guang heard this, his face darkened.    

"Do you really want to leave and not want the cultivation method of the soul technique?"    

"Yes, I don't want it anymore. That thing is too dangerous. If it was easy to get, you would have gotten it already."    

"That's different. With the Soul Fruit, we will have the strength to get the Soul Technique. That is the supreme Soul Technique. Aren't you interested in it at all?" Han Guang tried to persuade him.    

He did not believe that the other party was not tempted at all. It was obvious that he wanted to trick him. He would not be fooled so easily.
