Ru Qin left as swiftly as she came — silently and without notice.

Gu Yang couldn’t help but sigh, in this high martial world. Even if one held high positions, without enough strength, there was no sense of security at all.

Places like Jinghai King’s Mansion, even for the somewhat stronger First Rank, were free to come and go as they pleased.

The Mansion was too large. They only had two First Rank, one of whom was severely injured and had to protect the queen and crown prince. Indeed, they could hardly keep the whole Mansion under control.

He did not reject the condition proposed by the Cao family outright, but said he would ponder over it.

Even though it looked like a trap from any angle.

Because there weren’t many opportunities to earn five million at once.

In the whole of Great Zhou, there weren’t many families who could afford to pay five million in cash. And even fewer willing to spend so much to lure him, hardly a few families.

Only the nine surnames that had been inherited for hundreds to thousands of years could be so extravagant.

As to whether it was a trap or not, a simulation would answer that.

Spending 500,000 to confirm a deal worth five million was still acceptable.

Gu Yang promptly opened the system.

[Would you like to use the Life Simulator? It uses 500,000 coins each time.]

“Yes.”

[At the age of 22, you have already achieved First Rank cultivation level, defeated Yi Yi who was the first on the prodigy list, and your name shook the whole world.]

[You went to Jinghai King’s Mansion for an appointment, thwarted the conspiracy of Red Venerate Sect, and saved the queen and crown prince of Jinghai King. You are regarded as a benefactor by the Mansion.]

[A few days after, Jinghai King returned to their Mansion. At the same time, the Shen Family sent a First Rank powerhouse, trying to retrieve “Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens”, you are not an opponent, at a critical moment, Jinghai King arrived, and one punch severely injured him.]

[Later, you agreed to the conditions of the Cao family, followed Ru Qin to Ningzhou. As you were nearing the Cao family’s residence, the head of the Shen Family caught up with you. Just when you were about to be caught, a Divine Power of the Cao family took action and repelled him.]

[You saw the living corpse that Cao Yiyi had become. Because she could not bear the power of an abnormal treasure, she fell into a deep sleep.]

[Cao Yiyi’s father used an abnormal technique, allowing your consciousness to enter that abnormal treasure, and awaken Cao Yiyi’s spirit.]

[A few months later, your Original Spirit is exhausted and you die at the age of twenty-two.]

After Gu Yang finished reading, his first thought was that these five million were indeed not easy to earn.

However, Ru Qin did not lie, Cao Yiyi indeed seemed close to death. The reason they sought him out, he guessed, was to stimulate her through him.

However, this method of saving people is too dangerous. Unsurprisingly, he died swiftly and cleanly.

There was another thing, the Shen Family would soon find out that he was cultivating the “Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens” technique. They sent over a First Rank powerhouse, a really strong one.

After failing once, even the head of the Shen Family took action. This person was ranked fifth in the First Rank list.

This crisis inevitably came to pass.

Needless to say, it must have been the doing of the Red Venerate Sect.

This simulation was originally to scout ahead, knowing in advance what risks there were, so as to know how to avoid them. It was a necessary expense, unavoidable.

Though this was his reasoning, he still felt a pang in his heart.

Earning money was hard for him, wasn’t it?

Every time, he bet his life on it.

And just like that, he lost five hundred thousand.

[Simulation is over, you could choose one of the following to keep.]

[One, the martial arts realm at the age of 22.]

[Two, the martial arts experience at the age of 22.]

[Three, the wisdom of life at the age of 22.]

Gu Yang’s gaze scanned the first two options. The increase in cultivation level in just a few months could be negligible, and there was no way he could have practiced any formidable saber techniques.

“I’ll choose three.”

Then, several more memories appeared in Gu Yang’s mind.
