Chapter 236 They must be let go.

Xi Yan frowned and looked at Gu Xulin, who was lying on the floor by the wall, his body covered with wounds and blood. His heart was full of doubts and puzzlement. He really couldn't understand why the host was like this when he was only in seclusion for two days to recuperate?

Xi Yan withdrew his gaze from Gu Xulin and turned to look at Luo Tingyu, who was standing beside him and wanted to attack his host. Xi Yan just felt that the other party looked a little familiar. He vaguely remembered that the man in front of him was a familiar friend of He Ci and the others.

Now he is against Gu Xulin? And he wants to snatch me away? Xi Yan couldn't help but be more confused. He asked Gu Xulin the reason with a serious look. "What's going on with you?"

If it weren't for the binding relationship between the system and the host that made Xi Yan strongly feel that the host's life was in danger, forcing him to wake up from his slumber, Xi Yan would not have known that Gu Xulin was in such a mess, and he was almost killed by a friend of a friend?

Gu Xulin tried to get up from the ground again. While he was struggling to move his body to the wall and sit down, he explained to Xi Yan through telepathy that Luo Tingyu was no longer He Ci's friend and the current situation they were facing.

Finally, Gu Xulin said with a determined look on his face. "In short, since you chose me in the first place, you are mine and can only be mine! Even if he kills me, I will never hand you over to him!"

Xi Yan didn't say anything and simply chose to ignore the host's stubborn words.

Luo Tingyu turned his head and glanced at Xi Yan who finally appeared. After hearing his words, the man temporarily withdrew the lightning power condensed in his palm. Luo Tingyu looked at Xi Yan with a hint of vigilance and asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"

Xi Yan looked at him and spoke thoughtfully, "The Phantom God System and the host are bound by a life and death contract. If he dies, I will also disappear from this world and return to Phantom God Star."

"If you really want to get me, I advise you not to do this."

"Really?" Luo Tingyu narrowed his eyes slightly, with a suspicious look on his face, "Then tell me, what should I do? Otherwise, how can I know whether what you said is true or false?"

Gu Xulin frowned, "Why should he tell you!"

Luo Tingyu turned around and glanced at Gu Xulin. The corners of his lips slightly raised in a smile, "You won't tell me? Then you are lying to me?"

"In that case, I don't mind trying it out directly to see if it's real." After Luo Tingyu said this, he walked towards Gu Xulin again. A ball of black mist slowly condensed in the palm of his right hand. Red lightning was lingering in the mist, and the electric current running around made a "sizzling" sound.

Seeing that Luo Tingyu was still going to attack Gu Xulin, and the other party was not easy to fool at all, Xi Yan frowned even more, and he could only helplessly shout to the man to stop, "Wait..."

Luo Tingyu turned around and glanced at Xi Yan. He raised his eyebrows slightly and pretended to be confused. "What's the matter?"

Xi Yan continued, "Of course I know there is another way to get me, but the prerequisite is that Gu Xulin must be alive."

"What method?" Luo Tingyu asked with a smile as expected, curling the corners of his lips.

Originally, when Xi Yan appeared, Luo Tingyu was quite worried that the other party might be stronger than him. However, when he pretended to attack Gu Xulin in front of Xi Yan, the other party not only did not directly attack him to stop him, but also answered his questions in a compromising manner.

Combined with the dispute between Gu Xulin and Xi Yan that Luo Tingyu had overheard on the rooftop of the hotel in K City, Luo Tingyu had a guess in his mind.

It seems that either Xi Yan from the Illusion God Clan is restrained by the laws of heaven and earth and cannot attack humans, otherwise he will attract thunder. Or it is because they are in the state of soul bodies on Blue Star, and their abilities cannot cause any substantial harm to humans.

So, this is why, even though Gu Xulin was badly injured and threatened by him, Xi Yan either did not show up from beginning to end, or did not attack him even if she showed up at Gu Xulin's critical moment.

This is probably the reason why they from the Phantom Clan need to find humans as their hosts, to give their abilities to the hosts, so that the hosts can do things for them better.

Xi Yan was about to reply, but after hearing their conversation, Gu Xulin's heart skipped a beat. He supported himself against the wall and stood up from the ground, anxiously calling out to the system. "Xi Yan!"

Gu Xulin stared at Xi Yan and shook his head, "Don't tell him!"

Although he didn't know whether the method Xi Yan said was true or not, Gu Xulin still felt scared from the bottom of his heart. He was afraid that the method was true and he was afraid of losing Xi Yan.

Xi Yan ignored Gu Xulin's dissuasion and looked at Luo Tingyu and replied, "You two and I will sign a transfer contract. Within 24 hours from the date of the transfer contract, the former host Gu Xulin must be alive. Otherwise, the contract will fail at best, and both of you will die at worst."

"Oh?" Luo Tingyu looked at Xi Yan, "How do I sign?"

Seeing that Xi Yan ignored his dissuasion and insisted on telling the man about the possible method, Gu Xulin glared at the two of them angrily, "I won't sign! Don't even think about it!"

Xi Yan glanced at Gu Xulin and reminded him with her mind, "Don't you know how badly you are injured? Do you think you can escape safely from the current situation? Judging from your current situation, giving me to him is your only chance to save your life and escape."

Xi Yan's gaze couldn't help but sweep over Gu Xulin's chest that was burned and bloody. Because of the life connection with the host, he could clearly see Gu Xulin's health condition. At this moment, Gu Xulin's internal organs were all damaged to varying degrees. Although the host's physique had been strengthened by him, Xi Yan still found it hard to imagine how Gu Xulin could suffer such pain without making a sound and still be able to barely stand.

Gu Xulin looked at Xi Yan unwillingly, "Instead of asking me to give you away, you might as well just die!"

"Die? Of course dying is easy, but can death solve the problem? Death will be the end of everything, and you will never see me again!" Seeing that she couldn't persuade the host, Xi Yan had to use more force to persuade him.

After hearing this, Gu Xulin was silent for a moment.

Seeing that he was lost in thought, Xi Yan turned to Luo Tingyu and continued, "I'll tell you how to sign, but you must release Gu Xulin and the other six." Xi Yan pointed to Mu Yunren and others in the corner.

"Of course." Luo Tingyu responded readily.

After saying that, Xi Yan raised his hand and conjured up a system panel. After operating it for a while, he glanced at Luo Tingyu and said, "Let's seal it and drip blood to seal the contract. Both of you come over and drip your blood onto the panel."

Luo Tingyu walked over and cut his palm as instructed and dripped blood onto the panel.

Xi Yan looked at Gu Xulin. Gu Xulin still had a look of resistance on his face and just stared at him.

Xi Yan walked towards Gu Xulin, took his hand and took some blood from his finger.

"Is this it?" After dripping blood, Luo Tingyu didn't see any changes and asked suspiciously.

"Of course it's not done yet," Xi Yan pointed to the 24-hour countdown on the system panel when the host change ceremony started and showed it to Luo Tingyu, "The host change requires the joint confirmation of the three of us. If I don't agree before the countdown ends, the transfer contract will be invalidated."

"Now, it's your turn to fulfill your promise." Xi Yan looked at Luo Tingyu with a cold expression, "I want you to arrange a car for them to leave the city, with plenty of food and water, and set off in two hours. I won't agree until I see Gu Xulin leave the city safely."

Luo Tingyu stared at Xi Yan. This trick of the other party was really a brilliant one. Looking at the host replacement ceremony that had already started on the system panel, the man could only compromise and said, "Okay."

"Also, take them downstairs to treat their injuries first and make good arrangements." Xi Yan pointed at the other six people and added to Luo Tingyu, "By the way, please give me and Gu Xulin, who will soon become the former host, some private space to say goodbye."

After hearing this, Luo Tingyu waved to his men behind him, and ordered them to take Mu Yun and others away, and evacuate all the people in the room, and then arranged everything according to Xi Yan's request.
