Gu He and Jiang Ying looked at Gu Xun'er with surprise.
Gu He asked, "Why are you suddenly so excited?"
Gu Xun'er's expression froze, then she chuckled, "Really?"
Gu He and Jiang Ying looked at Gu Xun'er without saying a word.
This made Gu Xun'er look embarrassed, and she kept twirling two fingers around.
"Hahaha!"
Gu He suddenly burst into laughter.
Gu Xun'er was startled and immediately asked, "Dad, what are you laughing at all? You scared me to death!"
Gu He looked at Gu Xun'er with a doting expression, "I'm happy to see you're not sad anymore."
Jiang Ying, standing to the side, also wore a relieved smile.
At this moment, the Human Heart finally breathed a sigh of relief. They had felt sad when Gu Xun'er was upset, because what parent would want to see their child suffer?
So when they saw that Gu Xun'er was no longer sad, they were happy.
A sweet smile appeared on Gu Xun'er's face. This smile was genuine, without any sadness or sorrow.
She felt very fortunate to have parents like Gu He and Jiang Ying.
Gu He suddenly asked, "When are you planning to go?"
Gu Xun'er hesitated for a moment, then said, "Father, to go to the Upper Immortal Realm, it seems one needs to reach the True Immortal Realm, right? But I haven't even reached the False Immortal."
Gu He laughed and said, "If you want to go to the Upper Immortal Realm, I naturally have a way to get you there."
Gu Xun'er was stunned, then asked, "What method?"
Gu He, "Your grandfather returned three hundred years ago. After he returned, he built a teleportation array."
"Teleportation array?"
Gu Xun'er looked puzzled. It was the first time she had ever heard of a teleportation array in her home.
Gu He nodded and said, "Yes, this teleportation array can send a person to the Upper Immortal Realm, but it can only be used once, and then it's useless. Your grandfather said that if the Ethereal Sect encounters any insurmountable trouble in the future, they can use the teleportation array to find him."
After listening to Gu He's words, Gu Xun'er nodded, "I see."
Gu He smiled, then asked again, "So when do you plan to go?"
Gu Xun'er thought for a moment, then said, "Let's wait a while. I want to spend some time with my parents first."
Upon hearing this, Gu He and Jiang Ying were stunned, then smiled with relief.
Jiang Ying smiled and said, "Okay, let's go back to the Ethereal Sect then. Mother will cook you something delicious."
Gu He blinked. "What about me? There's no share for me?"
Jiang Ying rolled her eyes at Gu He, "You? Get out of here."
With that, she grabbed Gu Xun'er's hand and left without looking back.
Gu He stood there, his Gu He full of black lines, gave a wry smile, and followed.
On the other side, Su Chen and his two companions were walking along a small path. None of them spoke a word, and the atmosphere was extremely awkward.
Lin Fan lowered his head, his eyes filled with complex emotions and guilt. After a moment, he gritted his teeth, walked in front of Su Chen, and stopped.
Su Chen paused, looked calmly at Lin Fan, and said nothing.
Jianxin, watching this scene from the side, sighed inwardly.
Lin Fan was silent for a moment, then knelt down directly, "Master, I was wrong."
Su Chen said calmly, "You're wrong? What did you do wrong? You did nothing wrong."
The tone of this statement was cold and indifferent, devoid of any emotion.
Lin Fan felt a sudden, inexplicable pain in his heart, and tears welled in his eyes. Then, facing Su Chen, he slammed his head against the ground, saying, "This disciple shouldn't be unable to resist women, and even less should I relinquish the inheritance..."
That's enough.
Before he could finish speaking, Su Chen suddenly interrupted.
Su Chen looked at Lin Fan and said coldly, "I don't want to hear your nonsense. If you want me to forgive you, you'd better cultivate quickly and surpass me. Only then will I forgive you. Otherwise, you can forget about me ever forgiving you in this lifetime."
Upon hearing Su Chen's words, Lin Fan was struck dumb, his face turning deathly pale.
Surpass Su Chen?
This is something he can only do in his dreams.
Even if he could surpass Su Chen, how long would that take?
Millions of years?
Millions of years?
Or perhaps, billions of years?
So, if Su Chen doesn't forgive him during this period, what's the difference between that and never forgiving him at all?
At that moment, Lin Fan felt as if the sky had fallen.
Su Chen ignored Lin Fan and instead looked at Jianxin beside him, "Let's go."
After saying that, he walked right past Lin Fan and left.
"Sigh~"
Jianxin glanced at Lin Fan, then sighed deeply. Without further hesitation, he followed in the direction Su Chen had gone.
Standing there, Lin Fan clenched his fists, tears streaming down his face. At that moment, he felt as if his heart was being pierced by countless silver needles, the pain causing his body to tremble uncontrollably.
"Don't be too sad. Your master was probably just saying that in anger." At this moment, Liu Mengli's voice suddenly rang out.
Since Su Chen started following Lin Fan, Liu Mengli has not appeared. The reason is that she is afraid that Su Chen will be in a bad mood and kill her.
After witnessing Su Chen Su Chen's abilities, she became extremely afraid of him.
Lin Fan remained silent, his fists clenched.
Seeing this, Liu Mengli shook her head and sighed.
After a long while, Lin Fan's fists gradually relaxed. Then, he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeve and said firmly, "Senior, how can you help me quickly improve my cultivation?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Mengli frowned. "You really want to surpass your master? Let me tell you the truth, your master's power is beyond your imagination. If you want to surpass him, it's basically impossible."
Lin Fan remained silent.
As Su Chen's first disciple, how could he not know this principle?
After a moment of silence, he spoke, "Shouldn't we at least give it a try? If I give up just because I feel I can't surpass Master, then Master will look down on me even more."
As he spoke, an unprecedented firmness and determination shone in his eyes!
Liu Mengli remained silent for a long time before saying, "I do have a way to help you quickly improve your cultivation level, but I must remind you that you must eat one bite at a time and walk one step at a time. If you ignore your foundation and only focus on breakthroughs, you are destined not to go far in the future, and you will never be able to surpass your master."
Lin Fan smiled. "Then let's take it slow. Anyway, I'll surpass my master sooner or later."
Liu Mengli smiled. "That's good. I'm pleased that you think that way."
Lin Fan smiled slightly, then asked, "Where are we going now?"
Liu Mengli thought for a moment, then said, "Let's go to Spirit Flame Mountain."
Lin Fan asked in confusion, " Spirit Flame Mountain?"
Liu Mengli said, "Hmm, I remember there is a Divergent Flame on Spirit Flame Mountain called the Fallen Heart Flame. If you refine this Fallen Heart Flame, it will definitely bring you unimaginable benefits. I just don't know if anyone has discovered this Fallen Heart Flame yet."
