Chapter 214: Have you and my master become a happy pair?
Gu Qing was so busy in the study with Su Qingyue and Bai Suying that he was overwhelmed.
Meanwhile, Jiang Yu was bustling with activity in the residence.
After arranging all the affairs in the residence, Jiang Yu leisurely went to invite Gu Qing out for the banquet.
After three days of feasting, Gu Qing took Jiang Yu's hand and said, "Madam, your husband will be resting in your chambers tonight."
"Not going to keep your vixens company? Aren't you afraid they'll throw another tantrum?"
Jiang Yu said with a stern expression and a stiff tone.
"What vixens?
Madam, I thought you were a broad-minded, well-educated woman. I never expected you to be so narrow-minded, always fussing and jealous."
Gu Qing admonished her.
"Pfft!"
Jiang Yu burst out laughing, glancing at Gu Qing and rolling her eyes: "You little rascal, who are you calling jealous?"
"Heh, who else could it be? Far in the distance, yet close at hand." Gu Qing chuckled.
Then he grew serious and said, "Sister Yu, when should we go back?"
"Whatever you want!" Jiang Yu said nonchalantly.
"Then let's go now!"
"Alright, wait for me to dismiss the servants."
Jiang Yu quickly dismissed the servants and distributed all the family assets.
Meanwhile, Bai Suying and Su Qingyue entered the Hongmeng Ruyi Pagoda to cultivate.
Jiang Yu summoned an exquisite bamboo raft, and as she and Gu Qing sat on it, swinging their feet, she casually asked, "Where to next? Back to the Star God Temple?"
"I don't know." Gu Qing shook his head; it didn't matter where they went.
Wherever he was, he could cultivate in the Hongmeng Ruyi Pagoda.
It made no difference whether they returned or not.
Actually, seven years ago, Gu Qing had wanted to return to marry Hong Luan and Yao Yao.
But unexpectedly, Yan Hongluo went on a killing spree, slaughtering Li Zichen and two other Ancestors.
Somehow, Yan Hongluo accidentally triggered the ascension tribulation and took Hong Luan with her as they ascended to the Immortal Realm.
Thinking of this, Gu Qing suddenly remembered He Ni.
He wondered how He Ni was doing in the Immortal Realm and why she had left without saying goodbye.
Perhaps Yang Dieyi knew something.
He would take Liu Ruyan back to the Desolate Ancient Continent to ask Yang Dieyi.
"Do you want to ascend to the Immortal Realm?" Jiang Yu asked.
Then she added, "A'qing, although your talent is excellent and your character is sound, with wisdom and means that no one can match, you ultimately lack experience. Your journey so far has been too smooth."
"You don't want me to become a rogue cultivator and suffer, do you, Sister Yu?"
Gu leaned back with a look of resistance.
"What are you thinking about?"
Jiang Yu patted Gu Qing's arm and said reproachfully, "I mean that you should ascend to the Immortal Realm earlier, to compete with your peers, seek treasures in secret realms, travel through the bizarre and wondrous worlds, and gain more experience."
"This is essential for every cultivator."
"I..."
"A'qing, have you ever seen the Dawn Dusk Sea?"
"What is the Dawn Dusk Sea?"
"A time-based sea secret realm. Inside, time flows chaotically. Once touched by its currents, you'll instantly turn to ash.
There are also time turbulence and all sorts of wondrous and magnificent phenomena."
"Of course, in such a dangerous secret realm, treasures are abundant. The time treasures you desire are there."
"There's also the Chaos Star Domain, the Chaos Region, the Forbidden Divine Execution Grounds, the Ruin Sea, the Mirage City..."
Jiang Yu's magnetic and gentle voice slowly described the secret realms of the Immortal Realm and the bizarre and peculiar regions.
Gu Qing couldn't help but feel enchanted.
Indeed, he wasn't interested in competing with so-called prodigies, but he was very curious about the bizarre and wondrous worlds.
He wanted to go see for himself and admire the beautiful scenery.
Gu Qing's eyes flashed as he asked, "Sister Yu, when do you want me to ascend?"
Actually, Gu Qing didn't know whether it was better to ascend early or late.
But whether he ascended early or late to the Immortal Realm, Gu Qing didn't care.
Jiang Yu was an unfathomable existence.
With her guidance, he couldn't go wrong.
"Naturally, it's better to ascend earlier. Even if you don't train in secret realms, you can get better resources for cultivation in the Immortal Realm," Jiang Yu said.
"That's true!" Gu Qing nodded and said, "I want to go to the Desolate Ancient Continent for some business, and I'll also tell Chu Qing about it."
"Alright!"
Jiang Yu urged the bamboo raft, leaping through space, and in an instant, they were above Liu Ruyan and Liu Ruyi.
Gu Qing peeked down and saw Liu Ruyan fighting a peer of the King Realm.
At the peak of the Void Dao Realm ninth layer, she was holding her own against a King Realm second-layer cultivator, steadily suppressing her opponent.
It was only a matter of time before the young prodigy was defeated.
"Screams!"
When Liu Ruyan saw Jiang Yu and Gu Qing arrive, she immediately dropped her act and used the Kunpeng Dharma Form.
The sky-obscuring Kunpeng Dharma Form directly swallowed her opponent, refining them into nourishment for the Dharma Form.
She stepped onto the bamboo raft: "Master!"
"Mmm, your progress is rapid, your foundation is solid, very good!" Jiang Yu praised.
"Hee hee, it's all thanks to Master's excellent teaching."
Liu Ruyan instantly transformed from a cold young woman into a lively and cheerful one, sitting next to Jiang Yu and hugging her arm, acting coquettishly.
"Master, where have you been these past ten years? I've missed you so much."
Jiang Yu patted her little head and smiled without speaking.
"Ruyan, I'm going back to Liu Family Village. Do you want to come with me?" Gu Qing said.
Liu Ruyan's eyes lit up, and she nodded repeatedly: "Of course I want to go, Senior Brother, when will we leave?
Is Master coming too?"
"I'm not going."
"Ah? Then alright!"
Liu Ruyan looked a little disappointed.
She had accumulated many things to tell Jiang Yu over the past ten years.
She never expected to part ways as soon as they met.
"Ruyan, it's been a while since you've bought new dresses, I'll take you shopping. You two can leave in two days."
"Master, you're the best!"
Hearing this, Liu Ruyan excitedly pulled Jiang Yu and ran toward the city.
Leaving Gu Qing and Liu Ruyi staring at each other.
"Senior Brother, have you and my master become a happy pair?" Liu Ruyi asked with a faint smile.
Although it was a question, her tone was affirmative.
