She knew that Feng Qingtian would do anything to keep her company.
But that only made her even more scared of losing him.
She really shouldn’t depend on anyone.
“Actually, you didn’t have to come with me in person,” said Gu Bailu.
Feng Qingtian rubbed her cheeks and said, “Just count on me. Don’t be scared.”
Gu Bailu snorted. “I have abilities too. I’ve done enough good deeds. I’ll probably level up in a day or two.”
She actually didn’t know much about the new levels that her skills had reached.
According to her family’s classical texts, the skills at higher levels could change someone’s lifespan, erase memories, and most importantly, control lesser souls.
In her opinion, the skills her family practiced were actually all support skills.
It was barely possible to rely entirely on her skills to deal with a strong opponent, and she could only play tricks or depend on powerful teammates.
The enhancement rune, for example, could increase her teammate’s strength several times over.
The advanced skills were even more impressive, but she could still barely kill anyone with them.
“Right, have you found the spirit fruit?” If she had spiritual power, she would advance quickly through dual cultivation.
Only when she had a main power could she make best use of her support skills.
“The entire Murong house has been searched, but nothing was found.” Feng Qingtian shook his head. “I’ve asked someone to look at getting a spirit fruit from Heavenly Wind Empire. They can probably get it. Just wait a little while longer.”
Gu Bailu felt a headache again. She felt that she was still relying on Feng Qingtian.
“You didn’t find Miyasi?”
“He never returned to his tribe. I’m guessing that he’s still begging your master to forgive him on the island.”
Holding onto Feng Qingtian, Gu Bailu looked at the ocean and said, “I do miss my master.”
“Don’t think about another man when you’re with me.” Feng Qingtian raised her jaw and kissed her.
Gu Bailu was lost for words. Her master was old enough to be her grandfather, and Feng Qingtian was jealous of him?
If they ever had a kid and it was a boy, wouldn’t he be swamped by jealousy every day?
Wait, why would she think that? She certainly wasn’t going to spend the rest of her life with him.
In the last few days, she had been feeling that something was about to happen, though Nan Ningxin had been taken care of.
There was no telling if it was because her Heavenly Eye had leveled up, but her instincts were very sharp.
…
Nan Ningxin was taken to Heavenly Palace Cliff by Gu Yunjing, who looked at her and said, “I gave you five years and everything you needed, but you still couldn’t obtain Prince Zi. You’re absolutely useless.”
Nan Ningxin sobbed, “Everything was fine until Gu Bailu jumped out of nowhere.”
“Wasn’t that your own fault? I asked you to steal part of her soul, but you murdered her whole family. She hated you so much that she came to this world and stole your man. That is precisely karma.”
Gu Yunjing had been investigating what went wrong.
According to his plan, Gu Bailu shouldn’t have reached this world so soon. She should’ve arrived ten years later, when Nan Ningxin had already secured her position.
But Gu Bailu arrived in advance, as someone without any spiritual power.
