14: Chapter 14 Min Qingrou's True Identity and Worries

"I hope everything will be in time."

Sect Master Min Qingrou gently stroked her lower abdomen. In her beautiful eyes, besides the gentle benevolence of soon becoming a loving mother, there was nothing but lingering reluctance.

Additionally, there was a trace of worry mixed in.

Before the Heavenly Demon Sect was breached earlier, she had activated a Thousand-Mile Escape Talismanic Incantation.

This Thousand-Mile Escape Talismanic Incantation was a life-saving Talismanic Incantation she had casually taken with her when she secretly ran away from her Family back then.

Its function was not to obliterate powerful enemies, but it could summon experts from her Family.

Upon receiving the signal, the latter would rapidly rush to her location to rescue her.

Being able to have such an opportunity to possess this Talismanic Incantation, and with her Family still willing to send experts to rescue her after she had run away, Sect Master Min Qingrou's identity was naturally not simple.

It was only because she was the daughter of the Patriarch of a super Family in Baihuang Prefecture.

She was a Prodigy of her Family, considered the apple of their eye, upon whom thousands of favors were showered.

But unfortunately, out of considerations for benefits, the Family intended to arrange a marriage with another super Family.

At that time, she naively thought that cultivation was not about fighting and killing, but merely about pursuing the Dao of immortality.

Cultivation was for roaming the world, living happily and freely.

Therefore, she could not accept this kind of arranged marriage, marrying a man she did not love.

Thus, the thought of running away and breaking free from the Family sprouted.

Moreover, this thought did not fade with the passage of time; instead, it intensified.

Until she executed a precise plan and successfully escaped from under the noses of the Family's experts.

However, where there is a bright side to the world, there is also a dark side.

Only after truly traveling through Baihuang Prefecture did she realize how insignificant she had been, sheltered by her Family like a flower in a greenhouse.

All Cultivators in the world strive!

Striving for fame, profit, resources, and the vast immortal path to ascension!

However, Sect Master Min Qingrou did not change her original ambition.

Whether it be the Righteous Path of the immortal sects or the Evil Path of the demonic sects, as long as it suited her, it was the best.

After several twists and turns, she arrived at a lower-tier prefecture, Ling Prefecture.

Later, she joined the Heavenly Demon Sect, and relying on her transcendent talent, she became a disciple of the then Sect Master, Heavenly Demon Elder, eventually taking hold of the authority of the Heavenly Demon Sect Sect Master.

Until later, when the Heavenly Demon Sect was breached by the joint forces of various sects, she was besieged, her Spiritual Qi exhausted, and she was captured alive after her strength was suppressed by a Seal.

The leaders of the opposing forces rushed off due to the opening of a Secret Realm.

While being escorted to the Qingxuan Sect and about to become a captive plaything, she was saved by Gu Qingge, who was determined to betray his sect and cultivate the demonic arts.

Sect Master Min Qingrou hoped that Gu Qingge could endure for a time, succeed one day, and walk the imperial path of a Peak expert.

In this world, how many Prodigies are there?

It can be said that they are countless.

But in an era, how many can truly attain the Dao and become an Emperor?

Her grand scheming was not only for herself but also for the unborn child in her womb.

...

At noon, the sun rose high in the sky, like a scorching fireball, illuminating the earth.

Gu Qingge brought back a few hunted wild rabbits and pheasants, handing them to Shen Youqing and the others to process as food.

He then turned around and returned to his Immortal Cave.

Seeing Sect Master Min Qingrou thinking with a worried expression, he couldn't help but approach, wanting to comfort and guide her.

After all, her strength was gradually recovering; in the future, breaking the Seal and returning her strength to the Nascent Soul Stage would not be difficult.

Unexpectedly, when Sect Master Min Qingrou saw Gu Qingge, she threw herself into his arms and, without a word, fed him a Medicinal Pill using her lips.

Looking at Gu Qingge's confused eyes, Sect Master Min Qingrou explained: "This Medicinal Pill is called the Yunming Pill."

"It can allow you to hide your cultivation and conceal the fact that you possess the Heavenly Demon Emperor Body."

Gu Qingge swallowed the Medicinal Pill without suspicion.

"Hmm? Why did you suddenly feed this to me?" Gu Qingge was filled with questions in his heart.

"Qingge, things have come to this point, there are some secrets I must tell you."

"Actually..."

The Yunming Pill—Gu Qingge had heard of this kind of Medicinal Pill in an ancient book within the Scripture Pavilion of the Qingxuan Sect.

In other words, Sect Master Min Qingrou's identity was by no means simple.

Could it be that she ran away from some powerful Family, joined the demonic sect by Destiny, and after the demonic sect was slaughtered, sent out a distress signal, summoning experts from her Family to rescue her...

That would truly be 'absurdity knocking on the door of absurdity'—absurd to the extreme.

This was Gu Qingge letting his mind wander, quickly thinking of a writing technique commonly used by authors in novels.

However, just looking at Sect Master Min Qingrou's exceptionally serious expression, he felt that his guess was probably spot on.

What's the situation?

Is this the protagonist script for a Child of Destiny?

So much for self-reliance; the System even assisted in the Awakening of the Heavenly Demon Emperor Body.

Which Child of Destiny cultivates the demonic arts?

Isn't that clearly a major villain of Destiny?!

"A special Physique is a gift from heaven in the eyes of ordinary people."

"However, in some specific prefectures, it is not so."

"Whether it is a King Body, Imperial Physique, or Saint Body, or even a Dao Body, it is actually more like a death warrant."

"Some powerful Families will strip those they have captured who possess special Physiques, and transfer the Physiques they possess to members of their own Family through special secret techniques."

Upon hearing this, Gu Qingge gradually understood Sect Master Min Qingrou's words and couldn't help but ask in return: "So, you come from such a Family, and you understand the danger within even better."

"Especially worried that I would be captured and controlled by the Family behind you, thereby losing the Heavenly Demon Emperor Body?"

"That's right." Sect Master Min Qingrou nodded seriously, not joking at all, which served as confirmation of Gu Qingge's speculation.

The next moment, Gu Qingge scooped up Sect Master Min Qingrou's delicate body and walked towards the bed, letting the latter snuggle into his arms while his right hand caressed her smooth, delicate, and fair cheeks.

"It seems Rou'er has truly fallen in love with me."

"If you didn't love me, why would you be so good to me?"

Feeling the warmth of his breath, which was like a heatwave, sweeping over her, Sect Master Min Qingrou's lingering reluctance increased by a few points.

But at this moment, Gu Qingge's heart was swept by turbulent waves.

Well, Gu Qingge finally knew why Sect Master Min Qingrou was judged by the System as a major villain of Destiny!

Going with the flow, the Family is like this; as a member of the Family, did she have a choice?

Even if she were truly innocent and naive, ignorant of the ways of the world.

But if she were targeted by those Children of Destiny, the outcome would definitely be miserable and wretched.

According to his thoughts, perhaps at this very moment, in some unknown dark corner, a youth who had his special Physique stolen had re-awakened a second, even more powerful Physique, rising after breaking through.

Intending to undergo years of arduous struggle to seek revenge on the Family where Sect Master Min Qingrou belonged, vowing to slaughter everyone related to her Family.

"What kind of person does Rou'er think I am?" Gu Qingge asked.

"Greedy for wealth, lecherous, yet steady as a pine, with the spirit of a real man!"

"And, exceptionally vigorous..."

Sect Master Min Qingrou did not doubt her judgment at all; as for Gu Qingge, she had truly fallen in love with him from scratch.

Given time, he would surely achieve great things.

Ruling over the realm, his majestic power reaching far and wide.

Her love and affection were a form of investment, but were they not also a destined match made in heaven?

"In the future, I will surely walk step by step towards that path of the Peak, ascend to the absolute summit, and become the strongest in the world."

"Then I will stay with you day and night, never failing you in this life."

Gu Qingge did not hang a gentle smile on his lips as usual, nor did he leave most things unburdened on his mind.

At this moment, he seemed to be carrying the dome of the heavens, with all forces bearing down upon him.

Under the foil of extreme romantic heroism, he was the Supreme romantic man of the world!
