Chapter 406: Going home
Qin Yiyao's eyes flickered.
The demons' commotion this time was so big, it was clear that it was more than just a small matter; it was probably interrupted by her good master.
It seems I need to hurry up and become stronger.
If we were to return to the time of the Five Realms War, let alone her current mere Nascent Soul stage, even if she returned to the ninth level of the Supreme Saint realm, it wouldn't be enough. She would have to pursue the path to Immortality as soon as possible!
……
Gu Heng and Qin Yiyao met at the edge of the Ancient Secret Palace.
"Girl!"
He saw his little apprentice running towards him excitedly.
It feels like... something has changed.
He seemed to exude an aura of dominance, and his overall mental state had improved considerably.
Is this what people become after they are able to cultivate? Full of energy and hope for the future, that's quite possible. After all, Gu Hengguang is thinking about being able to cultivate in the future, not just now, and he's already invigorated.
This is good, although his disciple is not at the level of a cultivator as his master, which makes Gu Heng feel frustrated.
But at least he has a system!
The system has been malfunctioning for years; it should finally be of some use now.
Qin Yiyao benefited greatly from this trip, and Gu Heng felt it was definitely worth celebrating.
"How does it feel?"
He asked. Although Gu Heng felt that Qin Yiyao hadn't changed much, and he couldn't tell whether the little girl had cultivation or not, based on her fierce yet adorable demeanor in the main hall just now, Gu Heng felt that she definitely had cultivation.
But he was, after all, just a mortal, and his cultivation level was beyond the ability of others to detect.
"It feels... wonderful!"
Qin Yiyao clenched her fists, feeling the Dao power flowing through her meridians. She narrowed her eyes and said, "Master, don't worry, I will definitely cultivate diligently and strive to catch up with your cultivation level as soon as possible!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Heng gave a half-smile. Catch up with his cultivation level? What kind of cultivation level did he have? He was just showing off by using the system.
After all, he still had a "trial voucher," so whether he was a cultivator or not was actually correct.
But Gu Heng's own standard is that a cultivator must truly acquire their own cultivation level without relying on temporary items like experience vouchers.
As for what outsiders think...
Then it doesn't matter.
Even if he were to reveal the truth and say that he possessed some strange thing that could grant him any cultivation level within a quarter of an hour, even the tenth level of the Saint Realm, no one would believe him.
"Your current cultivation level..."
"Nine levels of the Nascent Soul stage, but as you know, Master, you can't judge a book by its cover."
Qin Yiyao was a little proud.
Out-of-body stage.
Gu Heng has memorized the entire cultivation system of the Xuan Tian Realm. The Nascent Soul stage is the fifth realm, a realm that ordinary people usually reach in their forties or fifties!
How old is she?
"Young and promising!" Gu Heng felt a surge of joy, like "a great teacher produces a great student." Although it had nothing to do with him, it didn't stop him from being happy for Qin Yiyao.
"Girl, don't feel pressured. If you need anything, your teacher will definitely fulfill your request."
Gu Heng patted her shoulder, comforting her in a kind tone.
Although he really couldn't give anything, he was just a mortal with more money than he could afford. He probably couldn't offer the things that cultivators would actually need.
If we're really talking about anything, he just collected quite a few spirit stones and jewels, all left behind by Brother Qin's master. His master was a true great cultivator, so those jewels were probably spirit artifacts or magic treasures.
Qin Yiyao pursed her lips, a sly glint in her eyes, then leaned closer to Gu Heng and whispered something to him.
"Really, everything is satisfied?"
"Really." Gu Heng suddenly regretted saying it so clearly.
If she really wants something that I can't give her, like a dragon's heart or a phoenix feather, then things will be terrible.
"Then I'll remember this promise."
She smiled and stared at Gu Heng: "I'll ask you for it again later, so don't go back on your word."
"Um……"
Gu Heng felt a little flustered, but on the surface he remained calm and nodded.
I hope my words don't come true and that I won't have to pay a heavy price later.
"Let's go, we should head back. We haven't been back to the clinic for many days."
Gu Heng still cared a lot about that clinic, at least for now. Before he could cultivate, this place was his base, and he couldn't easily give it up. "Meow..."
A faint meow came from the side.
He turned his head and saw the familiar jade-colored kitten walk out from the side. Its fur seemed to have some scars, and he wondered what it had been through.
Gu Heng raised an eyebrow. Why is Su Jinxi here too?
He left her at the Bai residence in the capital of Riyan, planning to come back and pick her up after leaving here.
And judging from her appearance, she was injured; I wonder what happened to her.
"You're here too."
Gu Heng picked her up, gently stroked her fur in his arms, and then fed her a sugar pill.
She loves to eat this.
After feeding Su Jinxi, Gu Heng took Qin Yiyao on their way home. ...
It took about three days to get back to Yunling City.
Pushing open the door and stepping into the clinic, I was greeted by a cloud of dust. Even though I hadn't been gone for half a month, I still had to do a thorough cleaning.
Gu Heng rolled up his sleeves, ready to get to work.
