Empress: My husband is too strong, I can only lie down and relax.

Chapter 69 Cai Kun, Susan's 6th Style, Is This an Old Acquaintance?

Heaven, earth!

Yunshuiyao has never even called him "husband".

It's the Emperor?

"Hahaha, good!"

Gu Chenyuan, on the other hand, was overjoyed.

That "Father Emperor" really made him feel good.

After all, Yun Shuiyao is now a favored daughter of heaven and a pearl of the Eastern Region, but she is still his daughter-in-law!

"Father, this is something I brought down from Dongling specifically for you."

Gu Jiancheng seized the opportunity and quickly stepped forward, taking out a pale red fruit.

It was unprecedented for Yun Shuiyao to call him "Father Emperor," so he couldn't push his luck.

"Oh? What's this?" Gu Chenyuan was taken aback when he saw the fruit in Gu Jiancheng's hand.

The fruit looked crystal clear, and it seemed to contain an extremely rich life force.

"This is a Life Essence Fruit, which can be used to improve the quality of your life soul. It's very precious!" Gu Jiancheng said with a smile.

He exchanged this fruit for 5000 favor points from the system shop.

The beast calamity struck too suddenly; if Yunshuiyao hadn't arrived in time to provide assistance, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Although Gu Chenyuan's talent was considered decent among emperors of various dynasties, his peak Core Formation level combat power was really insufficient in the face of the Beast Tribulation.

He and Yunshuiyao wouldn't always arrive so promptly to help, and there would definitely be more beast calamities to come afterward.

Only when you are strong enough can you cope with all kinds of challenges.

"You brat, what's wrong? You've been away for a few months and you're already starting to look down on me?" Gu Jiancheng said with a laugh.

"How could that be? Isn't this to show respect to Father Emperor?"

Gu Jiancheng smiled and quickly stuffed the Life Marrow Fruit into Gu Chenyuan's hand, saying, "Father, the most important thing is to focus on breaking through to the Dao Palace Realm. I will arrange for someone to refine some hidden weapons and talismans for you later."

He had been incredibly busy these past few months; otherwise, if the Great Qian had obtained enough Explosive Flame Machine Guns and talismans beforehand, it wouldn't have been in such danger.

"Alright, you, the sixth one, are indeed capable of handling things on your own."

"In that case, I will not disturb you two any longer."

Gu Chenyuan smiled, then turned and left.

Although the battlefield situation is now under control, he still wants to lead his soldiers in the fight.

"That's just how Father is, don't take it to heart." After watching Gu Chenyuan leave, Gu Jiancheng looked at Yun Shuiyao.

"It doesn't matter."

Yun Shuiyao's expression had returned to normal by now, and she immediately asked, "So, what's your plan next?"

"Go to the Northern Regions."

Gu Jiancheng answered almost without thinking.

"Northern Territory?"

Yun Shuiyao raised an eyebrow; Gu Jiancheng's answer had taken her by surprise.

"Then I'll be with you."

Despite her doubts, Yunshuiyao spoke without hesitation.

It was far too dangerous for Gu Jiancheng to venture into the Northern Region alone.

"What, you still don't trust my talisman skills?"

Gu Jiancheng, however, directly pulled out a stack of talismans, numbering over a hundred.

"Besides, the Eastern Region is too small, and there are only so many ferocious beasts. Are we going to fight with my wife for them?"

“But…” Although Gu Jiancheng’s words made sense, Yun Shuiyao was still a little worried.

"Don't worry, I'm very shrewd. I guarantee I'll come back to see my wife unharmed, and she might not even be as good as me!" Gu Jiancheng laughed again.

"not necessarily!"

Upon hearing this, Yun Shuiyao retorted, "Do you still want to have a competition?"

Once her cultivation reaches the half-step Dao Palace level, she can freely kill ferocious beasts at the half-step Four Symbols Realm.

Even if Gu Jiancheng has the art of talismans, she will not lose.

"Then let's have a competition, but the bet can't just be a kiss anymore." Gu Jiancheng shrugged; he couldn't be happier.

"Then what else do you want?" Yun Shuiyao's pretty face flushed again as she glared at Gu Jiancheng.

"You lost. From now on, call me husband." Gu Jiancheng rubbed his nose.

"no!"

But Yun Shuiyao resolutely refused.

Husband is of great significance, and how can she even bring herself to call him that now?

Wouldn't that be incredibly embarrassing?

"Then, if my wife loses, you must kiss me before going to bed every time, how about that?" Gu Jiancheng said with a sly smile.

"you!"

Yun Shuiyao bit her red lips. This Gu Jiancheng is really a playboy, taking advantage of her!

"Ahem, if my wife has no confidence, then it's better not to gamble." Gu Jiancheng spread his hands, looking like he was determined to win.

"This time, I will definitely not lose to you!"

Yun Shuiyao tightly gripped her jade-like hand and said.

"Okay, it's a deal then!" Gu Jiancheng was secretly delighted.

Looking at Yunshuiyao's moist cherry lips, if one could savor them every day, wouldn't one be blissfully happy?

"Hmph, but there are conditions!" Ke Yunshuiyao crossed her arms and said quietly, "You have to give me some of the talismans."

Gu Jiancheng has so many talismans; this isn't very fair to her.

"can."

Gu Jiancheng nodded and then took out half of the talisman and gave it to her.

"and this."

At the same time, Gu Jiancheng handed the Langhuan Pendant and a Star Stone he had just acquired from the system shop to Yun Shuiyao.

"This is... a starstone? Where did you get it?"

When Yun Shuiyao saw the star stone, she couldn't help but gasp.

This is a priceless treasure for repairing the Langhuan Jade Pendant.

"Uh, I had a stone opened at Boss Shen's place before coming here, and luckily, this is the one I found," Gu Jiancheng said with a smile.

Now, he has less than a thousand favor points left.

“You’re really lucky, but since you’re going to the Northern Region alone, it’s better if you take the Langhuan Pendant with you,” Yun Shuiyao said, shaking her head.

"No need, I don't have time to cultivate anyway, and I don't know how to repair it. Aren't you in a hurry to improve your cultivation? Take it."

Gu Jiancheng smiled and said...

He really wouldn't need this jade pendant if he went to the Northern Regions.

"Alright then!"

Yun Shuiyao nodded and accepted it. If the Langhuan Pendant were repaired with Star Stone, the flow of time could potentially increase tenfold!

In that case, she could indeed reach the half-step Dao Palace realm very soon.

However, as Yun Shuiyao clutched the Langhuan Jade Pendant in her delicate hand, her heartstrings still trembled.

Gu Jiancheng even gave her the Langhuan Jade Pendant.

For a moment, the two stood side by side before the imperial mausoleum, as if everything outside was irrelevant to them.

Half an hour later, the battle was almost over. More than 70,000 of the 100,000 ferocious beasts were killed, and the remaining 30,000 scattered and fled.

After bidding farewell to everyone, Gu Jiancheng soared into the sky and headed straight north.

The Great Qian Dynasty was located at the border between the Eastern and Northern Regions, so Gu Jiancheng arrived at the Northern Border just one day later.

In the desolate northern region, Gu Jiancheng stood atop a snow-covered mountain peak.

A moment later, Li Biluo, dressed in black armor, descended from the void and immediately knelt before Gu Jiancheng.

"Master, here is the news from the Northern Region you requested." Li Biluo presented a jade slip.

"Ah."

Gu Jiancheng accepted the jade slip, and after reading it with his divine sense, his expression changed slightly.

The situation in the Northern Region is completely different from that in the Eastern Region!

The beast calamity that appeared in the Northern Region was even more intense, but the first wave of beasts had already been suppressed!

All the ferocious beasts retreated back into the secret realm.

“Master, the strength of the Northern Region far surpasses that of the Eastern Region. They have eight of the thirty-six sects, and even two academies.”

“So if Master wants to compete for contribution points in the Northern Region, he can only enter the secret realm. The closest secret realm to the border is Kunwu Mountain, and that secret realm is the largest one that appeared during the Northern Region Beast Calamity!” Li Biluo said.

"Alright, then let's go to Kunwu Mountain!"

Gu Jiancheng crushed the jade slip. "You will remain in the Eastern Region to protect Shuiyao's safety. If there is any news, you must inform me."

"Yes, sir!" Li Biluo nodded, watching Gu Jiancheng disappear into the wind and snow.

Half a day later.

Gu Jiancheng, traveling at full speed, arrived in front of a rugged, colossal city in the darkness of night.

"Kunwu City, we've finally arrived."

Gu Jiancheng looked up and was awestruck by the colossal city before him, which was several times more magnificent than Dongling City.

The Northern Region is cold, but the level of cultivation there is a level higher than that of the Eastern Region.

Kunwu City is located at the foot of Kunwu Mountain. Even though it is not backed by two universities, it still has such a large scale.

Moreover, at this moment, the gates of Kunwu City were wide open and cultivators were constantly descending from all directions and pouring into the city. They must all be heading towards the secret realm of Kunwu Mountain!

"My friend!"

Just as Gu Jiancheng was about to enter the city, a voice suddenly sounded behind him.

He turned around and looked closely, only to find that the one who spoke was a handsome young man dressed in cyan and gold armor.

Her eyes were like stars, her face like a fox, and her hair was tied up with a golden crown. In terms of appearance and temperament, she was even superior to the young master Liu Feng.

Moreover, this person possessed a very profound aura, concealing an extraordinary quality.

A thought flickered in his mind, and he immediately activated his Insightful Divine Eyes.

Holy crap, there's even the Susan Six Techniques?

Could this guy have traveled through time like me?

"Oh? You know me, brother?"

When Cai Kun came up, he was taken aback when Gu Jiancheng called his name.

"Oh, I don't know."

“But you look a lot like an old friend of mine!” Gu Jiancheng suppressed his surprise and doubt before smiling.

He needs to test this guy.
