Chapter 101: Parting Advice, Qin Lu Wakes Up

After the two sides agreed, Nan Liyue took out a pill and fed it to Qin Lu. At the same time, Nan Liyue quietly placed a seal on Qin Lu’s body. This seal directly sealed one of Qin Lu’s meridians that was necessary to cultivate the Golden Core Realm.

As long as the seal was not broken, Qin Lu would never reach the Golden Core Realm. Therefore, it was impossible for him to reach the Out of Body Realm within three years. As long as Qin Lu did not reach that realm within the stipulated time, she could justifiably break them up.

As Qin Lu swallowed the pill, he saw a mass of cyan light slowly disperse. A strong life force was emitted from it.

“This is the Nine Transformation Rebirth Pill. What a miraculous pill.” The Pill Sect Master was shocked. He had only heard about it but had never seen it with his own eyes. He did not expect Ye Qingcheng’s mother to have it. It seemed that the power Ye Qingcheng’s mother belonged to was not simple!

After an incense stick’s worth of time, Qin Lu’s weak aura gradually became stronger and his pale face also regained its color. Sensing the change in Qin Lu, Ye Qingcheng could not hide her excitement. Xiao Gu’s face was also filled with excitement.

“In half an hour, he’ll wake up. You can come back with me!”

“Can you wait until he wakes up and say goodbye to him?” Ye Qingcheng hurriedly said.

“No. When I gave him the pill, the bet had already begun. Do you want to go back on your word?”

“Fine, I’ll go back with you.” Knowing that if she resisted again, his mother would forcibly take her back, Ye Qingcheng finally chose to give up. “Can you wait for me to say a few words to my child?”

“Yes.”

Seeing that her mother agreed, Ye Qingcheng placed Xiao Gu beside Qin Lu. “Xiao Gu, mother is leaving. During this time, you have to follow your father well, okay?”

“Mother, are you really leaving? If Father wakes up and doesn’t see you, he’ll be worried.”“Don’t worry. Your father usually looks like he’s not serious, but he’s not someone who do not understand responsibility. He’ll understand. Xiao Gu, once mother is no longer here. You have to protect your father well, okay?”

“Oh, Xiao Gu understands!”

“Also, don’t let so many women near your father.”

“Mother, are you talking about someone like Little Aunt?”

“Yes.”

“Alright, Little Gu understands.”

After explaining some things to Xiao Gu, Ye Qingcheng reluctantly looked at Qin Lu, who was lying on the bed. “I said that I would wait for you with Xiao Gu. I didn’t expect that I would break my promise first. Qin Lu, take care.” With that, Ye Qingcheng turned around and walked out. “We can go now!”

Seeing that her daughter had agreed to leave, Nan Liyue turned to look at Ye Lan. “Do you want to come back with us?”

“I want to wait until the matters of the Holy Maiden Sect are settled.”

“Alright, then we’ll head back first.” Nan Liyue nodded and left with the three children.

After Ye Qingcheng left, Qin Lu, who was lying on the bed, slowly opened his eyes. When Qin Lu opened his eyes, he saw that he was lying in an antique house and slowly got up from the bed. He then found that the injuries on his body had already healed.

At this time, the system’s voice sounded in his mind. [Ding, congratulations to the host for returning again. Mission continues.].

“Oh, I’m back?” Thinking that he could see Ye Qingcheng again, Qin Lu felt a burst of joy in his heart. While he was being all happy, he found that there was no spiritual qi in his body. [System, what’s going on? Why don’t I have any spiritual power in my body?]. [Host, your body has been reconstructed, so your spiritual power and cultivation have returned to zero.] [What, returned to zero? Doesn’t that mean I have to start from scratch?].

[Yes.].

[System, I saved so many people this time. Aren’t you going to give me a reward?].

[No.].

“Uh, what a trap!” Qin Lu was a little embarrassed as he no longer had any cultivation; wouldn’t he become a mortal? Just as Qin Lu was communicating with the system, Xiao Gu suddenly spoke. “Father, it’s great that you’re back!”

“Well, Xiao Gu, where’s your mother?”

“Father, Mother left.”“She left? Where did she go?” Just as he was puzzled, a voice suddenly sounded.

“She was brought back to the Ye family by her mother.”

Hearing this voice, Qin Lu looked up and saw an unfamiliar woman walking in. Behind this woman were the Vice Sect Master Tantai Yue and several other elders.

“Uh, you are?”

“I’m the Sect Master of the Holy Maiden Sect, Ye Lan.”

“Oh, you’ve come out of seclusion.”

“Yes, I just came out today.”

“Qin Lu, that girl Qingcheng left with her mother. There’s an agreement between them. If you can reach the Out of Body Stage in three years, she will agree to let you be together. If you can’t, then don’t think about that girl, Qingcheng.”

“Three, three years?” Qin Lu’s expression changed. He had no cultivation now. It was too difficult to reach the Out of Body Stage in three years. There was Qi Refinement, Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, and finally Out of Body Stage. It was too difficult to reach the Out of Body Stage in three years.

Some people couldn’t reach the Out of Body Stage in their lifetime. How could it be possible in three years? Even the protagonist of this novel couldn’t reach the Out of Body Stage in three years.

“Qin Lu, that girl Qingcheng is not an ordinary person, you…”

“Sect Master, you don’t need to say this. I know. Thank you. Can I go back to Wuchen Peak to calm down?”

“Okay, Ninth Elder, you can bring him back.”

“Yes, Sect Master.” Ninth Elder nodded and then brought Qin Lu back to Dustless Peak. Qin Lu’s body was reconstructed. Without cultivation, he couldn’t go up Wuchen Peak by himself. He needed someone to bring him back.

When he returned to Wuchen Peak, Qin Lu found that it was unusually cold and cheerless. Thinking back on how Qingcheng lived alone in Wuchen Peak, it really wasn’t easy!

Seeing Qin Lu’s depressed mood, the Ninth Elder hurriedly comforted him. “Qin Lu, I also didn’t expect that girl Qingcheng’s background to be like that. Her mother’s attitude is very tough and she fought hard just for you. Work hard and give it a try. Don’t let that girl, Qingcheng, be disappointed.”

“I have some pills here. They can help you refine your qi. Keep them first. When you’re done, come find me.”

“Thank you.” Qin Lu nodded.

“You’re welcome. Speaking of which, when you first came, I hated you. It was only because that girl, Qingcheng, liked you. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have helped you. Qin Lu, work hard. I hope that after three years, you can bring Qingcheng back.”

“En, I will work hard.”

Soon, the Ninth Elder left.

How could it be possible to reach the Out of Body Stage in three years? But regardless of whether it was possible or not, she still wanted to do her part. After all, she also sincerely hoped that Qingcheng could be happy.

After all, all these years, she had treated Qingcheng as her own child!
