214: You and my master are a perfect match, right?
Gu Qing was so busy in his study with Su Qingyue and Bai Suying that he couldn't attend to everything.
Jiang Yu, on the other hand, was bustling with activity in the manor.
After arranging all the major and minor affairs of the manor, Jiang Yu slowly went to invite Gu Qing out for the banquet.
After three days of banquets, Gu Qing held Jiang Yu's small hand and said, "Wife, your husband will rest in your room tonight."
"Aren't you going to accompany your vixen? Aren't you afraid they'll throw a tantrum again, husband?"
Jiang Yu's face was stern, and her tone was stiff.
"What vixen? Wife, I originally thought you were a broad-minded, educated, and sensible woman, but I didn't expect you to be so narrow-minded, spending all day being jealous."
Gu Qing reprimanded her.
"Pfft!"
Jiang Yu burst out laughing, looked at Gu Qing, and rolled her eyes: "You little brat, who are you saying is jealous?"
"Hehe, who else could it be? Far away in the sky, yet close at hand." Gu Qing chuckled.
Then he sobered up and said, "Sister Yu, I need to discuss something with you."
"Speak."
"You have to promise me first, don't get angry."
"If you don't say it, then forget it." Gu Qing was so cunning and full of tricks; how could Jiang Yu dare to agree first?
"Alright."
"It's just... it's just, you've been the main wife long enough, haven't you? How about next time you also be a concubine for once?" Gu Qing stammered.
"What?"
"You dare to make me a concubine?"
Jiang Yu was furious, grabbing his arm: "I think you've grown bold. In my opinion, how about this: I'll be a wealthy widow, and you be the gigolo adulterer?"
Gu Qing's eyes lit up.
This... that could work.
"You're not actually tempted, are you?"
Seeing Gu Qing's eager expression, Jiang Yu's eyelids twitched.
"Mmm-hmm, you said it, no backing out, or I won't play with you anymore."
"Alright, alright, you little brat, you really have something. Just wait and see how I deal with you, you gigolo."
...After dismissing the servants and distributing the family property.
Bai Suying and Su Qingyue entered the Hongmeng Ruyi Tower to cultivate.
The two played various roles.
At first, it felt pretty good, but it became very uncomfortable when they could see but not touch.
Gu Qing refused to continue and proposed ending the role-playing game.
Jiang Yu conjured an exquisite bamboo raft, sat on it with Gu Qing, swinging her feet, and asked casually.
"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.
No matter where he was, he could enter the Hongmeng Ruyi Tower to cultivate.
Going back or not was the same.
Actually, seven years ago, Gu Qing wanted to go back and marry Hongluan and Yaoyao.
Who knew that Yan Hongluo suddenly went mad, killing Li Zichen and two other Old Ancestors?
Yan Hongluo somehow accidentally triggered the Ascension Heavenly Tribulation and ascended to the Immortal Realm with Hongluan.
Thinking about it, 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 back then.
Perhaps Yang Dieyi knew something.
He would take Liu Ruyan back to the Ancient Desolate Continent later to ask Yang Dieyi.
"Do you want to ascend to the Immortal Realm?" Jiang Yu asked.
She then added, "A Qing, although your talent is excellent, your temperament is also good, and your wisdom and methods are unmatched, you still lack experience. Your journey has been too smooth."
"My wife wouldn't want me to become a rogue cultivator and suffer, would she?" Gu Qing leaned back, a look of rejection on his face.
"What are you thinking?"
Jiang Yu slapped Gu Qing's arm and scolded, "My point is, ascend to the Immortal Realm earlier, contend with the peerless talents, seek treasures in secret realms, travel through the strange and unpredictable fantasy worlds, and gain experience."
"This is essential for every cultivator."
"I..."
"A Qing, have you ever seen the Morning Glow Evening Sea?"
"What is the Morning Glow Evening Sea?"
"It's a secret realm of the Sea of Time, where the time wheel crisscrosses. Once struck, you'll instantly turn to dust. There are also temporal turbulences and various strange, beautiful, and magnificent sights."
"Of course, in such a dangerous secret realm, treasures are indispensable. The time treasures you desire are there."
"There's also the Chaos Star Domain, the Chaotic Domain, the God Punishing Forbidden Land, the Guixu Sea, the Mirage..."
Jiang Yu's magnetic and gentle voice slowly described the secret realms of the Immortal Realm and the bizarre and extraordinary regions.
It made Gu Qing yearn for them.
Indeed, he had no interest in contending with the so-called talents, but he was very interested in the bizarre and extraordinary world.
He wanted to see it for himself and admire the beautiful scenery.
Gu Qing's eyes flickered 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 to the Immortal Realm late or early, Gu Qing didn't care.
Jiang Yu was an indescribable existence.
With her guidance, it would definitely not go wrong.
"Naturally, it's better to ascend earlier. Even if you don't go to secret realms for experience, you can still 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 Ancient Desolate Continent to do something and also tell Chu Qing about it."
"Alright!"
Jiang Yu activated the bamboo raft, leaping through space, and in an instant, they arrived above the two sisters, Liu Ruyan and Liu Ruyi.
Gu Qing leaned out to look, only to see Liu Ruyan fighting a King Realm talent.
With her Void Dao Realm Ninth-Level Peak cultivation, she was fighting a King Realm Second-Level opponent without falling behind, steadily suppressing him.
It was only a matter of time before the young talent was defeated.
"Caw!"
When Liu Ruyan saw Jiang Yu and Gu Qing arrive, she immediately dropped her act and used her Kunpeng Dharma Manifestation.
The sky-obscuring Kunpeng Dharma Manifestation directly swallowed her opponent whole, refining him into nourishment for the Kunpeng Dharma Manifestation.
She stepped onto the bamboo raft: "Master!"
"Hmm, rapid progress, solid foundation, very good!"
Jiang Yu praised her.
"Hehe, it's all because Master taught me well."
Liu Ruyan instantly transformed from a cold girl into a lively and cheerful girl, plopping down beside Jiang Yu and hugging her arm, acting spoiled.
"Master, where have you been all these years? I missed you so much."
Jiang Yu stroked her little head, smiling without a word.
"Ruyan, I need to go back to Liu Family Village. Do you want to come with me?" Gu Qing asked.
Liu Ruyan's eyes lit up, and she nodded repeatedly: "Of course I want to go! Senior Brother, when are you leaving? Is Master coming too?"
"I won't be going."
"Ah? Oh, alright then!"
Liu Ruyan was a little disappointed. She had accumulated so much to tell Jiang Yu over the past ten years.
She didn't expect to be separated as soon as they met.
"Ruyan hasn't gotten new dresses in a long time, has she? I'll take you to buy some. You two can leave in two days."
"Master, you're the best!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan excitedly pulled Jiang Yu and ran towards the city.
Leaving Gu Qing and Liu Ruyi staring at each other.
"Senior Brother, have you and my Master become a happy couple?" Liu Ruyi asked with a faint smile.
Although it was a question, her tone conveyed certainty.
