Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start

887: Chapter 14: Opportunities That Began in the Primordial Past 887: Chapter 14: Opportunities That Began in the Primordial Past “Miss Gu, we finally meet.”

In the end, it was Gu Chen who broke the silence, suppressing the myriad of emotions surging in his heart, and offering Gu Qingyan a faint smile.

No matter what, the act had to go on, and Gu Chen’s identity could not yet be revealed.

Otherwise, it would also bring trouble to Gu Qingyan, after all, the Frost Soul Sect was no longer what it once was, and could now only be considered a power at the level of a holy land.

“Young Master Gu.” Although silent, without any exchange of words, Gu Qingyan instantly understood her elder brother’s intention and responded with a smile instead of a direct acknowledgment.

Seeing this scene, Lu Mingyue and the others also knew that Gu Chen was indeed acquainted with Gu Qingyan.

“How are Miss Gu’s injuries?” Gu Chen asked, his gaze filled with concern.

Witnessing this scene, the elders of the Frost Soul Sect were moved, and their gaze shifted back and forth between Gu Chen and Gu Qingyan.

Although Gu Qingyan was good at concealing the truth, preventing them from discovering Gu Chen’s true identity, the sense that there were a thousand words exchanged in their meeting did not escape the perceptive eyes of these experienced elders.

“It seems that Qingyan and this Gu Jiuge have a relationship that is somewhat out of the ordinary,” they thought to themselves.

Just like what Lu Mingyue had assumed, they perceived the feelings Gu Chen showed towards Gu Qingyan as those between a man and a woman.

“If it is as Mingyue says, and this Gu Jiuge is indeed a descendant of a hidden lineage, and if Qingyan is willing, then bringing the two of them together wouldn’t be inappropriate,” the elders of the Frost Soul Sect nodded in agreement amongst themselves.

With their discerning eyes, they naturally noticed something exceptional about Gu Chen.

Even though they could not fully understand his capabilities, the qualities he exhibited were already sufficient.

“It looks like you two have a lot to talk about, so we, these old folks, won’t hold you up any longer,” said the head elder of the Frost Soul Sect with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Gu Qingyan blushed slightly, knowing they had misunderstood, but there was no way to explain at the moment, so she could only nod in response.

Then, after everyone had completely left, the two no longer needed any pretense.

Gu Qingyan’s eyes brimmed with tears as she softly called out, “Big brother…

”

“Qingyan…” Gu Chen smiled, but his heart was also tumultuous, his eyes reddened.

Upon this reunion, the siblings felt a sense of change.

Gu Chen smiled and said, “Qingyan, you’ve grown up.”

Upon hearing this, Gu Qingyan slightly wrinkled her nose and retorted, “I’ve always been mature, okay?

It’s you, big brother, who sometimes act too childishly!”

“I act childishly?” Gu Chen shook his head with a chuckle upon hearing her words.

Afterward, the siblings talked for a long time, sharing their experiences during their time apart.

Gu Qingyan’s life was actually quite monotonous, having been taken to the upper world to begin her cultivation, working extremely hard with the hope of aiding Gu Chen one day; otherwise, no matter how talented, she wouldn’t be able to achieve her current level from an ordinary person in just two years.

Of course, the strong support from the Frost Soul Sect was also integral to her development.

“My master and the elders, as well as my fellow disciples, have all treated me very well,” Gu Qingyan said.

This, Gu Chen also noticed.

When it came to his experiences, Gu Chen glossed over the dangerous parts when Gu Qingyan inquired about them, so as not to worry her.

But Gu Qingyan was clever, and she understood that her elder brother must have faced countless life-and-death situations to reach where he was today.

It was for this reason that she had left the Nine States and ascended to this world, unwilling to let her talent go to waste, and determined to become someone who could support Gu Chen.

“By the way, how are uncle and auntie?” Gu Chen quickly asked.

“Father and mother are very well.

Although the Frost Soul Sect has a special environment, considering me, the master specially built a residence on the mountain with an array for them to live in,” Gu Qingyan explained.

However, occasionally, Gu Chengfeng and Xu Qinge would get bored on the mountain and would go down to the state city for a stroll, accompanied by the disciples of the Frost Soul Sect.

Not long ago, it was precisely during such a time that they were captured by people from Night Spirit Valley and Wind Gate, who made a move against them and nearly succeeded.

At this point, Gu Chen’s expression became solemn, and he said, “Qingyan, there’s something I must tell you.”

He then relayed the conversation he had overheard in the state city between members of Wind Gate and Night Spirit Valley to Gu Qingyan.

“What, there’s actually a spy from Wind Gate within our Sect?!” Gu Qingyan exclaimed in shock, visibly struggling to accept this.

But since Gu Chen was the one who had spoken, she believed him unconditionally and quickly asked, “Who is it?”

Then, Gu Chen mentioned a name.

“It’s actually Senior Brother Luo Hao?!” Gu Qingyan was shocked, her face turning pale.

Luo Hao was well-known within the Frost Soul Sect for his strong talent, second only to Gu Qingyan, who was born with the Profound Yin Body.

If not for her arrival, Luo Hao was very likely to become the next Sect Master of the Frost Soul Sect.

“Why would Senior Brother Luo betray the Sect?” Gu Qingyan couldn’t understand.

With such a status, after living in the Sect for so long and being treated well by the Sect Master Mu Han and the elders, why would he do such a thing?

Gu Chen looked at Gu Qingyan and was silent.

In his view, perhaps it was his sister’s arrival that blocked Luo Hao’s path.

After all, without Gu Qingyan, the other would have become the next Sect Master of the Frost Soul Sect.

But with her appearance, everything changed.

Of course, this was just his speculation, so he chose not to share it with Gu Qingyan.
