Gu Xiaonan held Xiaobai tightly and said, “Mother, why are you scaring Xiaobai?”

“Do I look like I’m joking?” Gu Qingluan replied seriously.

Looking at her stern expression, Gu Xiaonan blinked in confusion.

Did his mother really want to slaughter Xiaobai?

Why?

After pondering over Gu Qingluan’s previous words, he suddenly understood and quickly explained, “Mother, you misunderstood. I asked Xiaobai to follow Yuanxi. Xiaobai didn’t abandon me.”

“Squeak, squeak!” Xiaobai nodded in agreement.

That’s right!

Its little master will always be Xiaonan, and it would never betray him!

Gu Qingluan squinted, scrutinizing Xiaobai.

Trembling, Xiaobai nodded nervously.

Gu Xiaonan reached out and gently patted its head. “Don’t be scared, Xiaobai. Mother won’t braise or stew you. Right, Mother?”

It seemed that she had misunderstood.

Gu Qingluan pursed her lips and said, “Forget it. It’s your pet, you take care of it.”

Both Gu Xiaonan and Xiaobai breathed a sigh of relief.

Suddenly, Gu Xiaonan remembered Briquette and SteamBun and hurriedly asked, “Mother, can I bring Briquette and SteamBun to play with Yuanxi? Yuanxi really likes them, so I want to give them to him. Will you be angry with me?”

“Since I gave them to you, they’re yours to decide. What you do with them is up to you,” Gu Qingluan replied.

She didn’t want to be overly controlling when it came to raising her child. While there were certain principles she wouldn’t compromise on, she believed in giving him freedom and fostering his independence.

Thinking of this, she also thought of Little Yuanxi and then of his father.

Gu Qingluan immediately felt a sense of urgency.

That bastard was young, yet his cultivation was formidable. She wondered where he had obtained such power.

Although Cloud Plains Continent was lower in rank compared to Heavenly Realm Continent, it shouldn’t be underestimated. At least with her current strength, she couldn’t do as she pleased.

Gu Zhixin, Gu Lingxue, and Gu Lingxue’s backers…

Her enemies were strong.

She needed to become stronger without delay!

Feeling the urgency, Gu Qingluan set aside other matters and focused on cultivation.

After making all the necessary arrangements and informing Xiaonan, Gu Qingluan entered the Stellar Space for closed-door cultivation.

A week quickly passed.

At the Gu residence.

Laughter echoed through the air.

Wang Shi, Second Master Gu, and several younger family members hurriedly rushed to the main courtyard.

Creak.

The door opened.

A mature and radiant middle-aged man appeared before them.

Wang Shi and the others widened their eyes in astonishment.

In just a little over ten days, Gu Zhicheng had become at least ten years younger!

He now appeared to be around forty years old.

With his jet-black hair and bright eyes, he exuded a youthful radiance. Standing next to Gu Zhicheng, Gu Zhixin seemed like the elder brother!

After the initial shock, they couldn’t contain their excitement.

His current state indicated that his closed-door cultivation was successful, and his cultivation had stabilized!

Everyone rushed forward and surrounded him.

“Old Master, is your cultivation stable? Are you feeling any discomfort?” Wang Shi asked with concern.

“Yes, everything went smoothly. I’m in excellent condition now,” Gu Zhicheng replied with a smile.

“That’s wonderful! Congratulations on becoming a Revered One, Father!” Gu Qin’er exclaimed with joy.

“Congratulations, Big Brother!”

“Congratulations, Uncle!”

Gu Zhicheng had a beaming smile on his face.

Suddenly, Gu Jinyue asked, “Uncle, when will you go and deal with Gu Qingluan? You don’t know how terrible she was while you were in seclusion…”

She had been waiting for this day for a long time, and she couldn’t wait to see Gu Qingluan kneeling and begging for mercy.

As she listened to Gu Jinyue’s exaggerated complaints, Gu Zhicheng’s expression grew darker and darker.

Gu Qingluan, that arrogant girl, needed to be taught a lesson. If he didn’t intervene, she would continue to believe that she was beyond anyone’s control.

Gu Jinyue was taken aback by his sudden anger, but she couldn’t help feeling excited.

Gu Qingluan, lets see how arrogant you can be now!

“Prepare the horses. We’re going to the Jun Residence!” Gu Zhicheng said in a low voice.

Soon, Gu Zhicheng rode his horse and headed towards the Jun Residence. The others followed suit, eagerly making their way there..
