Chapter 2926 - Old Classmates Talk, Judging a Gentleman by One's Own Petty Mind

"However, what exactly is this for us? Transmigration? Possession?"

Su Jinli was also filled with doubts.

When she arrived in this world, she had already become the Young Miss of the Su Family.

It was as if this role was one she was meant to play.

"Actually, we don't need to dwell on these things now. I think it's fine this way."

"If we had just transmuted here directly, with our strength, we would be worse than ants in this world," Ye Yu said.

As soon as he gained consciousness, he became a Cultivator of the Guhua Grotto-Heaven, possessing the cultivation of a Quasi-Emperor.

That was convenient.

Otherwise, if we had to Cultivate from scratch, wouldn't we be even more insignificant than ants?

"Ye Yu, do you think our change of circumstances is due to some so-called Destiny?"

"Or is there some unusual secret behind it?" Su Jinli suddenly asked.

Ye Yu raised an eyebrow.

He thought of what the Spirit of the Gate of Creation had previously said about the Nine Children of Destiny.

He didn't know how many of their classmates had come to this world.

But presumably, the number was likely around nine.

Referencing the words of the Spirit of the Gate of Creation again.

Perhaps there really was some earth-shattering secret involved.

But for now, Ye Yu's cultivation was insufficient, and he was not qualified to touch such high-level secrets.

Therefore, the Spirit of the Gate of Creation didn't tell him much.

Ye Yu thought to himself, but he did not reveal anything about the Spirit of the Gate of Creation.

Although Su Jinli was his old classmate from the same place.

But in the current situation, who could trust the other one hundred percent?

Not to mention that Su Jinli was also very close to Jun Xiaoyao.

Thinking of this.

Ye Yu frowned slightly and said.

"By the way, what is your relationship with that Jun Xiaoyao?"

Ye Yu's tone was not very good.

Because of Ling Xi, he had a poor impression of Jun Xiaoyao.

Plus, due to the incident at the auction, he had lost face because of Jun Xiaoyao and was even called a pauper by Manager Su Ying.

For Ye Yu, who had always had strong self-esteem, this was somewhat unpleasant.

After all, on Xuanji Star, he was one of the most outstanding people among the younger generation.

Yet here, he was constantly frustrated, suppressed, and belittled.

Although Su Jinli looked like a silly homebody, she was actually very observant and sensed something.

She also didn't mention anything about the Yellow Springs Secret Treasury.

She only said that by coincidence, she met Jun Xiaoyao, became treasure-hunting partners, and traveled together; that was all.

Ye Yu frowned secretly.

He naturally didn't quite believe Su Jinli's words.

From her previous way of addressing him, one could tell the relationship between Su Jinli and Jun Xiaoyao.

It was definitely not as simple as just being ordinary friends who met by chance.

"You didn't reveal our true origins, did you?" Ye Yu said.

"Naturally, I did not," Su Jinli said.

Ye Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

This could be said to be their biggest secret; if it were exposed, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Let alone exposing it to Jun Xiaoyao.

Ye Yu thought for a moment and said, "For the sake of us being old classmates, I can tell you."

"That Jun Xiaoyao is definitely not that simple; he hides very deep."

"The reason he approached you might be because he has some ulterior motive."

"If you get too close to him and trust him too much, you might suffer a loss eventually."

Hearing this, Su Jinli frowned, feeling somewhat displeased.

She had spent so much time with Jun Xiaoyao.

Did she not know what kind of person Jun Xiaoyao was?

And what about Ye Yu?

He had only met Jun Xiaoyao once or twice.

Yet he claimed he had ulterior motives or some agenda.

That was a bit absurd, right?

But then, Su Jinli thought of something.

At the auction, Ye Yu had deliberately raised the price to compete with Jun Xiaoyao for that bronze compass.

In the end, he was the one who got played.

Perhaps that was why there was friction.

Thinking of this, Su Jinli sighed and said, "I know that you and Young Master Jun had some unpleasantness at the auction before."

"But you haven't spent time with him, so how do you know his character?"

"Is it just based on your one-sided opinion?"

Hearing this, Ye Yu felt his blood pressure rising.

What could he say?

Say that he had the Spirit of the Gate of Creation inside him and could sense that Jun Xiaoyao was hiding his true depth?

Now, with Su Jinli and Jun Xiaoyao being so close, it was even more impossible for him to reveal this secret to Su Jinli.

If this secret were known by Jun Xiaoyao, there was no guarantee he wouldn't try to seize his Spirit of the Gate of Creation.

But in this way, it was impossible to explain.

In his anxiety, Ye Yu said, "In any case, listen to me; you won't go wrong. Stay away from that Jun Xiaoyao; it won't do you any harm."

"Ye Yu, after the auction, it was I who helped you out of the predicament."

"It was also Young Master Jun who was willing to yield the bronze compass to you."

"Yet you are slandering others behind their backs like this."

Su Jinli's slender eyebrows knitted together.

She felt that Ye Yu was becoming unreasonable.

Jun Xiaoyao had good intentions; considering his relationship with her, he yielded the bronze compass to Ye Yu.

Yet Ye Yu slandered Jun Xiaoyao behind his back.

It really seemed like measuring a gentleman's stature with a villain's heart.

Su Jinli's words made Ye Yu's expression awkward, but he couldn't refute them.

Indeed.

Regardless of the motive, Jun Xiaoyao had ultimately yielded the bronze compass to him.

This was an indisputable fact.

Taking a deep breath, Ye Yu temporarily calmed down.

He knew that it was impossible to make Su Jinli sever ties with Jun Xiaoyao now.

He could only plan for the future.

"Sorry, I was a bit inconsiderate."

Ye Yu didn't say anything more.

Su Jinli thought about it and understood.

The reason Ye Yu had such an attitude was perhaps due to a man's jealousy and self-esteem.

After all, on Xuanji Star, Ye Yu was one of the most outstanding young people.

And after coming to this Boundless Starry Sky, although he couldn't be considered weak, at least he was no longer considered outstanding.

Moreover, he had encountered a peerless man like Jun Xiaoyao.

Comparing the two, it was inevitable that his self-esteem would be wounded.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore."

"By the way, what are your plans next? Do you want to join my Su Family?" Su Jinli asked.

Although she found some of Ye Yu's attitudes unreasonable.

But after all, they had the same experience and were old classmates; it was impossible not to help him at all.

Ye Yu shook his head and said indifferently, "No need. I have my own plans."

Su Jinli was stunned.

Was he... angry?

Was he blaming her for not severing ties with Jun Xiaoyao?

"Alright then, let's keep in touch. Maybe we can meet other classmates."

Since Ye Yu had refused with such an attitude, Su Jinli naturally wouldn't lower herself to please him.

"Mm, let's contact each other if there's any situation." Ye Yu nodded slightly.

Then, they communicated about some other things.

Including the fact that another one of their classmates, Qin Qiong, had joined the War Clan.

This actually surprised Su Jinli quite a bit.

The War Clan was not simple; it was one of the Ten Hegemon Clans.

Qin Qiong's opportunity was actually somewhat enviable.

After some conversation and communication, Ye Yu left.

After he left, Su Jinli shook her head and sighed.

"This is really just changing to a different place."

"Why does it feel like Ye Yu has become a different person?"

"Perhaps, when a person who should have been radiant becomes ordinary, their Heart-Nature will also change," Su Jinli murmured.

Ye Yu, even among their group of the most outstanding young people, was a backbone, a leader-like existence.

Second only to her good friend, Shishi.

He certainly couldn't accept his current mediocre situation.

As for Su Jinli's mindset...

She was just a salted fish.

Eating, drinking, and treasure hunting—isn't that great?

"However, he also seems to have some things he hasn't revealed."

Su Jinli's glass-like, clear eyes also carried a hint of contemplation.

Although her personality felt a bit silly, she was definitely not truly silly; on the contrary, she was very observant.

She could feel that Ye Yu was also hiding something from her.

It could be said that although Su Jinli and Ye Yu were both companions from the same place.

But now, meeting as classmates, they both had their own secrets that they hadn't revealed.

There was a natural rift...
