Chapter 279: Chapter 279- Changing Destiny

"I have a few treasures with me, their quality although not as rare as the hairpin, is still quite good. Here, you can choose anything that you fancy from here. Of course, you can pick more than one".

Yang Chen looked at the space ring and the girl. Should he say as expected of a sheltered princess of an influential faction? Even the things she had in her space ring were quite valuable.

Though that said, he did not choose to take anything from her space ring.

"Miss Tang Xun’er, I can’t accept this. I returned your hairpin because it was the right thing to do, not because I want something in return for it" he pushed the space ring back into the hands of the girl.

"Eh?"

Not expecting him to reject her offer, Tang Xun’er was once again surprised. Usually, back in her place when she offered others a treasure from her space ring, they would practically jump at the opportunity and pick the best one before thanking her.

However, ever since she met this man in front of her, all her preconceived understanding was turned upside down in her head.

Why is it that every time she thought she understood something about him, he would prove her wrong?

"Hey, brat are you sure? You didn’t even look inside the space ring. There are quite a few treasures inside that can help the current you improve your strength even further. If you can refine one of them, you will be able to fight Four; no, even Five Star Battle Grandmaster opponents. As a cultivator, you should know much of an edge that would give you"

Yun spoke from the side, throwing some casual advice.

"Haha, I understand. However, I still have to decline your offer. It’s not because I don’t understand the value of these artefacts. It’s just like I said, I did not return the Hairpin because I wanted something in return"...

"But... if I don’t give you anything in return, it would weigh on my mind" Tang Xun pouted her lips in dilemma.

Seeing that the girl was hell bent on returning the favour even Yang Chen felt somewhat helpless.

He had repeatedly rejected her offer because he wanted to create an impression on her and what better way to make her indebted to you?

If he rejected her offer, it would definitely weigh on her mind and she would not be able to stop thinking about him.

Though it didn’t look like the girl would take no for an answer. Just when Yang Chen was pondering what he should do, Amon’s voice rang out.

"How about you ask her to return the favour in a different form?".

’What do you mean?’.

As Amon was the consciousness of the system, no one other than him could see him nor could anyone spy on their conversation.

"Why don’t you ask her to show you around? From what I can tell this girl seems to also be travelling alone and she has limited experience. However, the demonic beast around her is extremely experienced and knowledgeable. When the time comes this demonic beast will be extremely useful to you. As such, If she can show you around then you can call it even".

Yang Chen’s eyes shone at that idea. He quickly did as he was told and asked Tang Xun’ er to show him around.

"You can tell by now that I am not from here. When we arrive at the desert ruins, it is likely that I will be quite lost. At that time if I have someone to guide me, it will make things quite easy".

When she heard that he wanted her to repay him by showing him around, the girl looked troubled. Her bright lake like eyes dimmed down and she was unable to answer for a while.

"If it’s too much, then you won’t have to. As I said earlier, I didn’t return your possession to get something in return"

Yang Chen turned around and decisively left. Of course, this move was something that Amon told him to do. Thus betting everything on it, he left.

Just as he took a few steps, the voice of Tang Xun’er sounded from behind him.

"Wait!!"

The girl bit her lip and a look of decisiveness appeared on her face.

"Just like you, I am also new to this place. As such, I am unable to guide you. However, Yun here is an extremely knowledgeable being. He can guide us while we explore the desert ruins"

After saying that, Tang Xun’er turned towards Yun and looked at him with pleading eyes. The latter sighed before tapping her forehead with his claw.

"I have told you already, but you are too trustful of others. Since you want to repay him no matter what, I can help in this matter but this is the last time. The next time you make such a request, I will not help you. Do you understand?".

Tang Xun’er nodded her head, her eyes returning to their former brilliance.

"As for you brat, I am only doing this for her. I don’t owe you anything. Although I promise her to guide you around, I will do the bare minimum. The rest is up to you, don’t come to me if you ignore my warning and run into danger"

"Additionally, the matter between you and her will be called even after we leave the Desert Ruins and you will not try to get close to her any further. If you can agree to these conditions of mine, then I am willing to show you around"

Yun folded his hands and huffed. Although the words he spoke sounded intimidating; however, due to his stature and looks it came out more as adorable and funny rather than anything.

Yang Chen nodded his head in reply.

"Good, and one last thing. I will be watching you carefully so don’t even try to think of anything funny"

The last sentence of Yun directly sounded inside his mind as such, Tang Xun’er could not hear it.
