94: He was forced again

One hour later.

Gu Feng stood up, his eyes fixed on the direction of the discussion hall, his tone carrying impatience: "What's going on? It's already been an hour and a half, why hasn't the talk finished?"

Yun Shang quickly pulled his hand and comforted him softly: "Maybe it really is something very important. Don't be anxious, wait a bit longer."

Hearing this, Gu Feng could only sit back down and let out a heavy sigh.

Another hour passed.

Gu Feng truly couldn't sit still anymore. He paced back and forth outside the discussion hall, his face anxious.

It had been two and a half hours; why was there still no movement?

"Mother is really something. What could be so secret that even I, her own son, cannot listen? She even specifically set up a sound-isolating barrier," he couldn't help but mutter.

Yun Shang, who was in the pavilion, heard him and quickly spoke up to advise: "Husband, come back and sit while you wait."

Gu Feng waved his hand, his tone filled with irritation: "I just don't feel at ease. I feel like something is about to happen, but I can't put my finger on it."

Just then.

Leng Yue's voice finally came from the discussion hall: "Fenger, Yun Shang, both of you come in."

Upon hearing this, Gu Feng's face lit up with joy, and he immediately rushed toward the discussion hall.

Seeing this, Yun Shang and Aunt Bai in the pavilion also hurriedly stood up and followed.

Walking into the discussion hall, the first thing Gu Feng saw was Leng Yue sitting in the head seat, with Cao Bu sitting in the first seat on the left.

He quickly scanned the two of them. Aside from Leng Yue's face being slightly flushed, he didn't notice anything unusual.

"This child greets Mother and Big Brother Cao."

Gu Feng walked to the middle of the hall, bowed to Leng Yue, and then nodded to Cao Bu.

Leng Yue smiled and nodded: "Find a seat and sit down first."

"Yes, Mother," Gu Feng replied and sat down in the first seat on the right.

At this time, Yun Shang and Aunt Bai also walked in from outside.

Cao Bu's gaze fell on Yun Shang, and the corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously as his fingers gently stroked the black jade ring on his hand.

Yun Shang was dressed in a blue dress. She had a petite figure and an exquisite, cute doll-like face that always carried a gentle smile, making people feel close to her just by looking at her.

"Mother, Big Brother Cao," Yun Shang bowed to Leng Yue and Cao Bu, her voice soft.

Leng Yue nodded with satisfaction: "Rise and find a seat."

"Yes, Mother," Yun Shang replied and sat down beside Gu Feng.

Aunt Bai then walked over and sat down next to Cao Bu.

In the Gu Clan, she was the person closest to Leng Yue besides Gu Feng and his wife.

Although she was a Maidservant in name, her status was clearly not low, as could be seen from the way Gu Feng addressed her.

As soon as he sat down, Gu Feng couldn't help but ask: "Mother, what were you and Big Brother Cao talking about just now? Why did it take so long?"

This was not only what he wanted to ask, but also the doubt in the hearts of Yun Shang and Aunt Bai.

Leng Yue glanced at Cao Bu calmly.

Actually, she had only planned to talk for half an hour at first.

But when she thought about how it might be difficult to find another chance to be alone with Cao Bu in the future, she couldn't help but stay a while longer.

Cao Bu did not agree, so she had no choice but to force him once again.

She composed herself and said slowly: "It's nothing, just a detailed discussion with Bu'er about the recovery of his Dantian."

"Dantian recovery?" Gu Feng, Yun Shang, and Aunt Bai were all stunned at the same time.

Gu Feng was the first to react, his tone full of astonishment: "Mother, Big Brother Cao's Dantian can be recovered?"

One should know that in the Spirit Realm, there was simply no way to repair a shattered Dantian.

Now his mother actually said there was a way; this was simply incredible.

Leng Yue nodded and asked the three of them in return: "You should have heard of Heavenly Emperor Lu's name recently, right?"

Gu Feng immediately nodded, his tone solemn: "I've heard it!"

"I heard that four more Emperors recently offended him and were pressed to death by him with a single finger."

"The rumors say that by now, no fewer than nine Emperors have died at his hands."

Leng Yue nodded and continued: "Actually, this Heavenly Emperor Lu is your Big Brother Cao's sworn brother."

"What?!" Gu Feng, Yun Shang, and Aunt Bai's eyes widened at the same time, and they stared at Cao Bu with utter disbelief.

Meeting the three people's gazes, Cao Bu just smiled and nodded slightly as a greeting.

Gu Feng swallowed hard, his tone carrying disbelief: "Mother, you... you're not joking, right?"

"Big Brother Cao is just a Heavenly Bridge Realm Cultivator with a shattered Dantian. How could he be sworn brothers with Heavenly Emperor Lu?"

"You know, if this gets out, the impact on Heavenly Emperor Lu's reputation would be far too great."

Leng Yue shook her head, her tone certain: "I'm not joking. Only a few people know about this."

"If you don't believe it, you can go to the Wine God Temple and ask the Wine Emperor for verification. He was also present at the time."

Gu Feng looked at Cao Bu and then thought of Leng Yue's words, and he couldn't help but believe it a bit more.

It was just that he still couldn't figure out what was so special about Cao Bu that would make a Heavenly Emperor recognize him as a sworn elder brother.

Leng Yue didn't care about Gu Feng's expression and continued: "The method for repairing the Dantian was told to Bu'er and me by Heavenly Emperor Lu."

"Now, to help your big brother recover his Dantian, we are only missing the last three Materials."

After saying that, she looked at Gu Feng: "Fenger, the map I gave you last time, the one marking the ruins of the previous generation's emperor bone possessor—give it to me now."

Gu Feng was stunned for a moment, then said: "Mother, as it happens, I also have something to tell you."

Leng Yue raised an eyebrow: "What is it?"

Gu Feng explained: "Originally, according to the plan, I should have returned three months ago."

"But on the way back, I stumbled upon the location marked on the map by chance."

"Later, Shang'er and I went in to investigate. We didn't expect to obtain a massive fortune."

As soon as he finished speaking, he actively circulated his spiritual power, revealing his cultivation: "Mother, look."

"In just three short months, my cultivation has risen from the First Level of the World King Realm to the Ninth Level of the World King Realm."

"And Shang'er, her cultivation has also risen to the First Level of the World King Realm."

Yun Shang also followed by circulating her spiritual power and added with a smile: "Mother, Husband and I obtained the Legacy of the previous generation's emperor bone possessor in the ruins, which is why our cultivation could rise so quickly."

"Obtained the Legacy of the previous generation's emperor bone possessor?" Hearing this, Leng Yue instantly became excited, her voice even trembling slightly.

She didn't bother to pay attention to Gu Feng and Yun Shang, but turned to look at Cao Bu, her tone full of joy: "Bu'er, that's wonderful! This is truly wonderful! This way, the matter of your Dantian recovery is one step closer!"

This scene left Gu Feng and Yun Shang completely bewildered.

What did their obtaining the Legacy have to do with Big Brother Cao's Dantian recovery?

Gu Feng couldn't help but ask: "Mother, what is going on? Why are you so happy?"

Leng Yue suppressed the excitement in her heart, her eyes fixed on Gu Feng as she asked: "Fenger, since you obtained the Legacy of the previous generation's emperor bone possessor, did you also obtain his emperor bone?"

Gu Feng nodded: "Mother, I did indeed obtain that Senior's emperor bone."

The joy on Leng Yue's face could no longer be hidden, and she quickly urged: "Quick! Fenger, quickly give the emperor bone to Mother!"

Seeing this, Gu Feng said somewhat helplessly: "Mother, that emperor bone... I have already completed the Fusion."
