Small, Chapter 396: Is Shen Wuxin Actually Shen Mengdie? Dragon Clan Territory.

"Little fool, you actually came to find me on your own today, and so early too," Shen Wuxin said with a mix of surprise and reproach on the boat.

Gu Junlin walked up the boat's ladder, awkwardly touching his nose. Indeed, since they had met, it had always been Shen Wuxin who sought him out.

Shen Wuxin waved her hand inside: "Xuexin, weren't you clamoring to terminate the contract? Now that he's here, don't hide."

"Who's hiding from him? I just don't want to see him," Long Xuexin said, lifting her head as she walked out: "Let's terminate it quickly, so I won't have to see this annoying guy anymore!" Gu Junlin's smile froze.

This little loli's resentment is really strong. Except for the time he reneged on challenging his master, which was somewhat excessive, he hadn't really offended her much, right? Even if she had grievances from the Phoenix Clan, shouldn't she be directing them at the master...

Long Xuexin walked up to Gu Junlin with a resentful face, seemingly reading his thoughts, and muttered unhappily: "It's because you never once stood up for me."

For a young girl in love, the person she admires not standing by her side is already a great crime, and speaking for the opponent is a heinous crime!

"Sister, let's start terminating the contract," Long Xuexin turned her head to the side, not even wanting to show her face to Gu Junlin.

"Are you still angry about what happened last time?" Gu Junlin said: "That was indeed my fault. I wanted to apologize to you at the time, but I was stopped by a few human prodigies, and then you know what happened."

Long Xuexin's icy expression softened slightly, her eyes secretly glancing at Gu Junlin a few times, then immediately looking away when noticed.

She felt quite satisfied inside: "Now you know to admit your mistakes and start pleasing me? Too late! You have forever lost this princess!"

Beside them, Shen Wuxin shook her head with a light smile: "My sister has been spoiled since childhood, don't mind her."

As she spoke, her hands quickly formed seals, and the array patterns appeared, starting to dissolve the contract between the two.

Gu Junlin smiled: "Not taking good care of the princess is indeed my fault."

Long Xuexin seized the opportunity: "Of course it's your fault, could it possibly be this princess's fault?!" Gu Junlin didn't respond, to avoid further confrontation. As a grown man, he didn't need to argue with a young, immature girl.

Feeling the contract connecting them gradually dissipate, Long Xuexin's proud demeanor faded, replaced by a hint of reluctance.

But soon, she suppressed her emotions, standing coldly like a statue.

Thinking to herself: "It's not like you helped me in front of the witch for my sake, you were just repaying a favor to my sister!"

"Since you don't like me at all, and I'm not some cheap goods that would throw myself at you, I won't fancy you anymore from now on!"

She had decided to sever all ties with Gu Junlin from now on, wholeheartedly helping Shen Wuxin win over Gu Junlin, becoming her good sister.

The reason for terminating the contract was also for this; if they were to end up together in the future, and she was still Gu Junlin's contracted beast, wouldn't that make her Shen Wuxin's pet?

That's much lower than being a sister! Besides, there's no other reason, certainly not because she didn't want to be inferior to Gu Junlin!

Suddenly, the array light flashed, and their contract was officially terminated!

As soon as it was terminated, Long Xuexin turned and left without a word, as if silently telling Gu Junlin that she had wanted to leave long ago, not wanting to stay a second longer in front of this detestable person!

Gu Junlin smiled awkwardly: "We've spent some time together, we can still be friends, no need to be so harsh... right, Wuxin?"

Shen Wuxin answered off-topic: "You came to find me on your own, is there something you need?"

"Nothing much, just wanted to spar again," Gu Junlin said, getting excited, his gaze at Shen Wuxin seeming "mischievous."

Shen Wuxin smiled, flying over the sea, elegantly gesturing an invitation.

Gu Junlin was taken aback.

Shen Wuxin said: "You think just because you broke through, I'd be afraid to fight?"

As she spoke, her aura surged, far beyond before: "You can break through, why can't I?"

Gu Junlin suddenly became serious, flying to face Shen Wuxin, and they exchanged a palm strike across the distance.

The powerful force clashed in the air, Shen Wuxin's side of the sea froze with icy power, while Gu Junlin's side boiled and surged with waves.

This battle ended in another draw.

Afterward, Gu Junlin declined Shen Wuxin's request to stay and chat, leaving with a frown.

"Sister, you always draw with him, are you preserving his dignity, letting him win?" Long Xuexin popped out from somewhere.

Shen Wuxin smiled without answering. Initially, she hadn't held back, but recently, she had restrained herself a bit.

Gu Junlin was cultivating, while she was recovering; their rates of strength improvement were naturally different.

The reason for always drawing was that her pride wouldn't allow her to lose, and not defeating Gu Junlin was to preserve his undefeated myth.

On the other side, Gu Junlin returned to the boat, sitting at the bow with a heavy heart.

He had previously suspected that Shen Wuxin was an immortal from the ancient ruins, but her claim of being a reincarnated immortal had fooled him.

This time, after their exchange...
