Years of suffering, broken through in a single day!
Gu Beichi had just tried it for ten minutes. From the initial anxiety to the ecstatic joy when his True Qi flowed and gathered together, it was as if he had ascended from hell to heaven!
Although the True Qi did not stay in Gu Beichi's body for long, Gu Beichi filled with tears, feeling as if he had been reborn.
"Very good!"
Gu Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense nerves completely relaxed at this moment.
"Senior Zhao, thank you, thank you so much!"
Gu Beichi got off the bed, extremely excited, and was about to kneel down when Zhao Bo quickly stopped him.
"No need to be so polite," Zhao Bo said in a deep voice. "It was just a small favor!"
"For you, it might have been a simple favor, but for me, it was a life-saving grace!" Gu Beichi said in a trembling voice, "Your kindness to me is like a rebirth!"
As he spoke, Gu Beichi's tears flowed down his face as if they had come off a string.
Years of pent-up frustration, the pain, torment, inferiority, and madness he endured...
All his emotions transformed into a surge of heat the moment his True Qi appeared, making his whole body burn!
"Dad, your meridians have only just begun to repair themselves; you shouldn't engage in strenuous activity."
At this moment, Gu Chen's voice rang out, saying, "You should listen to Senior Zhao's advice and rest in bed."
"Young friend Gu is right, Boss Gu. Rest more for now; your meridians aren't fully repaired yet," Zhao Bo said. "I'll observe you for the next few days, and after a few more treatments, you'll be able to resume your cultivation."
"Good!"
Gu Beichi was overwhelmed with emotion and no longer insisted, returning to bed.
"I also need some medicinal herbs. Go to the black market and buy some," Gu Chen said. "Bring them to me in the next couple of days."
Not long after, Zhao Bo took his leave, and Gu Chen stood at the door giving him some instructions.
Taking the note from Gu Chen, Zhao Bo looked surprised and said, "Master, some of these medicinal herbs are very difficult to obtain, probably not even on the black market, and they are also very valuable."
"Don't worry about the money; it can be transferred to the Jiang Family's account," Gu Chen said calmly. "If there are any medicinal herbs that are unavailable, you can ask Lu Fan. There are connections in the black market; he can procure them from other regions. But I absolutely need these things."
"No problem." Zhao Bo nodded and turned to leave.
Gu Chen returned to his room and watched his father on the bed, sometimes grinning foolishly, sometimes crying, sometimes staring blankly at the ceiling, and sometimes lost in a daze...
He felt extremely bitter.
If he hadn't returned in this life, Father would have continued to experience the same nightmare. Now that he's back, everything will change!
Repairing the meridians is only the first step!
The second step is not to have his father start cultivating again, but to improve his physique! The most important thing for a cultivator is talent! Although Gu Beichi is old, he can still cultivate. Gu Chen cannot let him cultivate the old "Gu Clan Demon-Slaying Art" anymore, but will let him cultivate immortality cultivation methods.
"Young Master, your phone is here."
At this moment, Uncle Liu suddenly spoke.
Gu Chen walked out of the room, went to the landline, and stared blankly at the caller ID.
"Su Qingqing?"
He had been away from school for more than half a month, and during that time he had hardly contacted any of his classmates except for Xu Mo. He never expected that Su Qingqing would call him at this time.
"What is it?" Gu Chen thought for a moment, then answered the phone.
"Gu Chen, you're so heartless! You dropped out of school, so you don't care about your old classmates anymore?" Su Qingqing said.
"I've been very busy lately, so let's get straight to the point," Gu Chen said calmly.
Su Qingqing was a little annoyed. She had kindly called Gu Chen, but she hadn't expected him to be so cold. However, remembering how Gu Chen had argued with the Zhou Family at Zhou Xue'er's birthday party, she figured he probably wasn't having a good time lately either. So she suppressed her temper and said, "I'm here to inform you that there's a class reunion tonight."
"A party?" Gu Chen was taken aback and asked, "What kind of party?"
"It's a pre-graduation party," Su Qingqing said. "Let me know in advance if you'd like to attend."
Gu Chen then remembered that Xinghua University seemed to have such a graduation party every year.
As the class monitor, Su Qingqing had no problem informing Gu Chen.
"Tonight?" Gu Chen was about to refuse, but then suddenly remembered something and asked, "All the third-year students will be participating? Where is it?"
"Yes." Su Qingqing nodded and said, "The location is the Ruijing Grand Hotel. It's arranged by Shen Peng, a student from Class 6. The Shen Family owns a hotel, so the school entrusted it to them."
"Understood." Gu Chen smiled slightly and said calmly, "It's 6:30, right? I'll be there on time."
After saying that, Gu Chen hung up the phone.
"Dad, I have to go out tonight and might be back late."
"Go ahead, be careful."
Gu Beichi's voice rang out, and he also learned about his son's mystery, so he was no longer worried.
Ruijing Grand Hotel.
This is a mid-to-high-end hotel in Zhou City. It has eight floors. The top six floors are apartment rooms, while the bottom two floors are restaurants.
A young man in his early twenties stood at the hotel entrance, dressed in a navy blue suit, with slicked-back hair and a powdered face, smiling as he looked outside. Beside him stood several hotel waiters and managers, all with obsequious expressions.
This person is Shen Peng, the young master of Ruijing Grand Hotel.
To own such a large hotel business in Zhou City, where land is incredibly valuable, the Shen Family, while not a prestigious clan, is certainly well-off and has even joined the Chamber of Commerce, giving them some recognition.
The fact that the Shen Family was able to win the Xinghua University graduation party is a great honor for them, since there are many wealthy and influential young men and women at this university. The Shen Family will also be able to get to know some of these aristocratic families at this gathering.
It's just past six o'clock now, and many people have already started to arrive.
The entrance was filled with all sorts of expensive luxury cars.
"Young Master Shen!"
"Young Master Shen. Shen!"
"Young Master Shen energetic."
After all, not all students are from wealthy and powerful families; there are also some ordinary people. When those people arrived, they all greeted Shen Peng politely.
Shen Peng simply nodded and didn't pay much attention to them. In his heart, the most important people were naturally those from the top families.
At that moment, a Ferrari pulled up and stopped at the entrance.
Upon seeing the car, Shen Peng's spirits lifted, and he immediately went to greet it.
"Young Master Jiang, you've arrived!"
Shen Peng looked at the young men present with a fawning smile.
