Chapter 2239: Su the Beauty Enters Closed-Door Cultivation

"Mas... Master, you like... like women?" Ling Wanrong was stunned, her tongue tied as she spoke.

Seeing her instant transformation into a stutterer, Gu Zhiqi tilted her head to look at her and said mischievously, "Not allowed?"

Ling Wanrong immediately got anxious, "You like women, you... you should have said so earlier, maybe I could still compete!"

Gu Zhiqi: "..."

Gu Zhiqi remained silent for two seconds, then lazily smiled at Ling Wanrong and said, "No need to compete."

Ling Wanrong was momentarily stunned, then her eyes brightened, "No need to compete, did I win?"

Gu Zhiqi: "No, you’re out."

Ling Wanrong: "..."

As they spoke, they had already reached the courtyard.

Just as the two stepped into the courtyard, Tang Yichen spotted them, "Gu Xiaoxi, you finally came?"

Gu Zhiqi nodded towards Tang Yichen, "Has Sister Yun Yi woken up?"

Even though the spirit was unstable, there was still the possibility of waking up.

Upon hearing this, Tang Yichen paused for a moment and finally said to Gu Zhiqi, "She did wake up, but... she transformed, and..."

At this point, Tang Yichen hesitated, looking at Gu Zhiqi, and didn’t continue.

Gu Zhiqi: ?

"And what?"

Why stop halfway through?

Tang Yichen: "And Third Brother seems to be advancing."

Tang Yichen knew that advancing from Eighth-Rank to Ninth Order takes a long time.

Gu Xiaoxi only took half a year, but Su Yunling... who knows, maybe it won’t only take half a year, but a few years instead.

After listening, Gu Zhiqi paused slightly, then said, "He advances and advances, what’s there to hesitate about?"

Tang Yichen: "..."

I’m feeling sorry for you, aren’t I?

"You just came out of closed-door cultivation, and Third Brother went in, you two are spending more time apart than together, isn’t it regrettable for the both of you?"

Gu Zhiqi listened and raised an eyebrow, "It’s not like I can’t see him."

Closed-door cultivation actually makes it easier to meet him every day.

After speaking with Tang Yichen, Gu Zhiqi lifted her steps and walked into the room.

Ling Wanrong, holding Hua Yan in her arms, stood in the yard, watching Gu Zhiqi enter. She originally wanted to follow but, after a glance at the person in her arms, decided to settle the person in her arms first instead of following.

Tang Yichen wanted to give Gu Zhiqi and Su Yunling space, so he didn’t follow them in, instead looking at Ling Wanrong.

He stared at her for several seconds, his eyes growing distant, "You, are you... Alliance Leader Ling?"

Upon hearing this, Ling Wanrong looked at Tang Yichen, stared at him for a few seconds, and recognized him as the man who appeared with Gu Zhiqi, but couldn’t quite remember where she had seen him before, so she asked, "You know me?"

Tang Yichen nodded vigorously at her words, "I’ve seen you at the Immortal Medical Alliance; back then, you hadn’t gone into closed-door cultivation."

Ling Wanrong: ?

Closed-door cultivation?

Thinking of Tang Yichen coming from Five Hundred Years Later, Ling Wanrong understood.

Back then, when she was with Gu Zhiqi in Nine Stars City, the excuse used was indeed to undergo closed-door cultivation.

Because it was so long ago, she almost forgot.

Some images quickly flashed through her mind.

However, those images are nothing compared to Five Hundred Years Later in this place, so Ling Wanrong couldn’t remember too much, only looking at Tang Yichen and saying, "You’ve seen me, so you must be from the Ancient Martial Arts World, right? How is the current Ancient Martial Arts World?"

The last time Master came over, he was in a child’s form. Now he looks quite different; it seems many years have passed in the future.
