Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife-Chapter 2021 - 504: Reconciliation (Part 2)
Yes, early on when Gu Yelin was examining An Yiqing’s body, he discovered that she unexpectedly broke through her bottleneck while gravely injured, officially stepping into the Demigod Peak realm. Martial cultivators are at their weakest during breakthroughs, and a small mistake can lead to inner demons.
Luckily, Gu Yelin arrived just in time; otherwise, even without Korr and Adam, an ordinary person could have caused irreparable harm to An Yiqing.
Everyone’s hearts filled with fear initially, but soon excitement took over.
Demigod Peak, that is the supreme existence in the Martial Cultivation World!
To know, until now, there truly hasn’t been an expert who has crossed into Breaking Void to Divinity; Demigod Peak is considered the king in the Martial Cultivation World!
This is evident in Gu Yelin; An Yiqing nearly exhausted herself to deal with Meisite. However, Gu Yelin faced Adam and Korr simultaneously and defeated them in one move!
The difference here is like comparing a dim light to the brilliance of the sun and moon!
No one was one to dawdle; once it was determined An Yiqing was fine, Hong Ci and the Thirteen Blood Generals escorted Lancelot and others out of the Yu Family Mansion. Gu Yelin then sat cross-legged on the sofa, using inner breath to heal and observing An Yiqing’s condition.
After a long time, An Yiqing, who had fully stepped into Demigod Peak, slowly awakened from her cultivation. Opening her eyes, she fell into Gu Yelin’s doting dark eyes.
A night passed in silence.
In the following days, the Hong Ci members were busy as could be, and even Gu Yelin was nowhere to be seen. The aftermath at the training base was no easy feat, and the confrontation with The Church caused a large commotion. They needed to suppress public opinion, report to the high-level officials, and gather clues from the base—everyone at Hong Ci was as busy as spinning tops.
By the time everything was completed, half a month had passed. Late February, the New Year was approaching.
However, recently, at the Hong Ci Base, dark clouds have been rolling in, the atmosphere tense and foreboding. Everyone spoke softly, moved quietly, fearing they might anger the boss constantly releasing black energy.
In Gu Yelin’s office.
"...The wrap-up in Tea Province has been thoroughly completed. Yu Guocai, for selling out the country, will spend his life in a military prison. Yu Zi, being an accomplice, faces the same outcome as her grandfather. As for other members of Yu Family, they’re either demoted or detained; they won’t be stirring any big waves in this lifetime," Chiang Yi finished the business, then glanced at Tan Yulin, rolling his eyes. He looked at Gu Yelin, who was emitting black energy, coughed lightly, and bravely said, "This time, we owe it all to Xiao Qing. Without her, we couldn’t have obtained the clues so quickly. Uh, Boss, you and Xiao Qing..."
Seeing Gu Yelin’s face grow darker, Chiang Yi wisely refrained from speaking further.
He and Tan Yulin exchanged glances, frustration and helplessness evident in their eyes, inwardly cursing Xia Tian furiously.
That day, An Yiqing broke through the bottleneck, opening her eyes to see Gu Yelin. However, she was still visibly upset, though no one knew why. But, Master Gu always adhered to the principle that "the wife is always right," doing his best to cheer up An Yiqing.
Yet, as the head of Hong Ci, he couldn’t just watch his subordinate brothers busy as can be, while he stayed home cheering up his wife. Unable to help it, he could only join Hong Ci members in their busy work.
Unexpectedly, this busy streak went on for half a month. Meanwhile, An Yiqing, on the second day, returned to Xuandu City, citing "Thirteen Blood Generals needing to recover" as her reason.
Afterward, she went into complete seclusion, locking herself in Ancient Space to consolidate her recently broken through bottleneck.
For half a month, the couple remained apart, having no contact, while Gu Yelin tried to reach out but found no way, constantly calling the An Family to indirectly inquire whether An Yiqing had emerged from seclusion. Though not directly stated, the astute Elder An had long sensed something unusual. After consulting with An Zhifeng and others, he quickly understood the situation.
However, even the An Family was at a loss for how to comfort them. Gu Yelin wasn’t to blame for anything, and they didn’t hold him accountable. Yet, everyone was puzzled: what on earth was An Yiqing upset about?
This time, An Yiqing’s seclusion was noticeably longer than before; it’s been almost half a month since Gu Yelin returned to Xuandu City, and she still hasn’t emerged from Ancient Space.
