Chapter 174 Temporary Romance

"Master, I'll owe you this gift of picking stars first. When I become stronger in the future, I will definitely pick the stars from the sky for you to see. Then, you can have as many as you want." Wu Yuying's eyes flashed with embarrassment, and she said with a dry laugh.

"According to what you said, I probably won't be able to wait for you in this lifetime." Xue Wu Ran rolled his eyes at Gu Fei and said lightly.

"Look at what you said. You have to believe in me. I can definitely do it!" Wu Yuying looked at Xue Wuran with a firm expression.

Xue Wu Ran stared at Wu Yuying silently for a few seconds, said nothing, and turned his head away.

In his opinion, it was impossible for Dancing Warbler to pick the stars in the sky. As far as he knew, only immortals in ancient times could do it.

The ancient times are really too long away from the present, and as time goes by, the cultivation level of the practitioners in the Xuantian Realm is gradually declining and becoming less and less than before.

The strongest person in Xuantian Realm at present is only at the Great Perfection of Breaking the Void Realm, which is far behind the immortals in ancient times.

The difference between the two is like a firefly compared to the bright moon, but how can the light of a firefly compete with the brightness of the bright moon?

Although Wu Yuying has great talent, he believes that at best he can only reach the Great Perfection of the Void Breaking Realm.

Reaching for the stars? No way!

What Xue Wu Ran didn't know was that one day in the future, Wu Yu Ying really fulfilled her promise. For her, the starry sky was just a thought away and she could pick them at will. "Master, what is the purpose of our trip?" Wu Yu Ying asked.

"Dark Forest!" Xue Wu Ran replied.

"Dark Forest... Why does this name sound familiar?" Wu Yuying muttered softly, and continued to ask, "Master, where is this Dark Forest? Is it dangerous?"

“You’ll know when you get there!”

"Oh..." Wu Yuying responded without thinking much about it.

For her, as long as she was with Xue Wu Ran, it didn't matter where she went.

At 5 p.m. in the afternoon, the carriage entered a city called "Taining City".

Taining City is different from Cheshui City. It is the imperial capital of Taining Kingdom, where many powerful figures live.

The streets and alleys are lined with shops, the avenues are crowded with people, and the enthusiastic shouts of vendors can be heard one after another, making it extremely lively.

In the crowd, a young girl was walking hand in hand with a man. Both of them were wearing tattered clothes and looked like two beggars.

At this time, the girl pulled the man and stopped in front of several stalls selling candied haws. There were many homeless children around the stalls, all with greedy looks on their faces.

"Boss, give me two strings of candied haws," the girl walked towards one of the vendors and her clear voice rang out.

The stall owner was a middle-aged fat man with small eyes. At this moment, he narrowed his small eyes slightly, looked at the girl and the man, a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes, and said with a disdainful tone.

"Dear customer, we are doing a small business, so you need to pay first. A string of 100 Xuantian coins!"

"Oh? Do you think I can't afford it?" The girl showed a playful smile on her face and glanced at the owners of several stalls around her.

Except for a middle-aged man with a simple and honest look who smiled at her in a friendly manner, the owners of the other stalls all looked at her with the same expression.

"Blind-sighted people are everywhere. How hateful!" The girl remained calm on the surface but complained in her heart.

The man next to her had a blank expression on his face, as if it had nothing to do with him.

This man and woman are the master and disciple Wu Yuying and Xue Wuran who had just entered the city.

"My dear, you don't know, there are too many people who eat and drink for free in Taining City now. I have elderly parents and young children to take care of, there is nothing I can do!" The middle-aged fat man looked at Wu Yuying embarrassedly, and the implication of his words was very obvious.

"Okay! I won't make things difficult for you." Wu Yuying nodded and pulled Xue Wuran to the stall of the honest-looking uncle.

When the latter saw her coming, a simple smile instantly appeared on his face.

Before Wu Yuying opened her mouth, the uncle greeted her first.

"Miss, do you want to eat candied haws?"

"Yeah!" Wu Yuying nodded, looked at the children surrounding her, counted the number of them, and said loudly.

"Uncle, give me twenty strings of candied haws!"

Hearing this, several vendors around looked over, and the stall owner showed contempt in his eyes and muttered softly.

"Twenty strings, can you afford it, you poor beggar?"

However, the next moment, shock appeared in his eyes and the candied haws in his hand fell to the ground.

Wu Yuying took out a handful of Xuantian coins from her bosom and placed them on the honest uncle's stall.

"This little girl...she's rich but she dresses like a beggar..." The middle-aged fat boss's face turned very ugly.

The same was true for several other stall owners.

The middle-aged man glanced at the small mountain of Xuantian coins on the table and did not agree. Instead, he looked at Wu Yuying and asked with some concern.

"Twenty... skewers, miss, can you finish them? If you can't finish them, it will be a waste."

"I definitely can't finish it. I only want two skewers. Give the rest to them!" Wu Yuying knew the uncle's concerns, pointed at the children around them, and said with a smile.

The middle-aged man paused, looked at the homeless children around him, then smiled and nodded, and started to get busy. He thought, this lady is really a good person.

"Children, come here quickly. Sister will treat you to candied haws for free!" Wu Yuying waved and shouted to the children around her.

Suddenly, all the homeless children around swarmed over and came to Wu Yuying's side.

Soon, every homeless child had a string of candied haws in his hand and a bright smile on his face.

The leader was a little boy about ten years old. He led the other children to bow deeply to Wu Yuying.

"Thank you so much, my benefactor!"

"Oh, it's okay!" Wu Yuying touched her head a little embarrassedly, patted the little boy's shoulder, and a storage bag fell silently into the little boy's arms.

"Take good care of your brothers and sisters~"

"Yeah!" The little boy nodded heavily, looking at Wu Yuying's face, as if he wanted to engrave her into his mind.

Afterwards, Wu Yuying waved at them and pulled Xue Wuran into the crowd.

On the crowded street, Wu Yuying held a candied haws in her left hand, held Xue Wuran's hand with her right hand, and had a candied haws in her mouth.

"Master, are the candied haws delicious?"

"Not bad!" Xue Wu Ran nodded. He also put one in his mouth, causing his face to look a little puffy.

Wu Yuying turned around and couldn't help laughing, "Master, you are so cute!"

Hearing this, Xue Wu Ran frowned and turned his head away.

Ever since agreeing to a three-day temporary relationship with Wu Yuying, the latter's first step was to ask for holding hands, saying that holding hands is the most basic daily behavior in a relationship.

At first, Xue Wu Ran was reluctant, thinking that Wu Yu Ying was trying to take advantage of him, until Wu Yu Ying pointed out that there were several mortal couples holding hands on the street, he reluctantly agreed.

However, he still felt a sense of rejection in his heart. Others were couples holding hands, but he and Wu Yuying were master and disciple. He always felt awkward walking on the street.

However, fortunately, he didn't hear anyone say anything, so he slowly got used to it.

At this moment, a chaotic sound came from behind them, accompanied by panicked shouts.
