After cultivating immortality for a hundred years, the predecessor has become the daughter of destin

"Um, senior, are you okay?"

Seeing Shangguan Liushuang's exaggerated performance, Gu Cheng suddenly felt a toothache.

In fact, after realizing that it was Shangguan Liushuang who attacked him, he didn't use much strength at all.

But even so, Shangguan Liushuang still felt very uncomfortable after being hit by him.

Not only did the sword that she had carried with her for many years begin to crack, but even her internal organs were shaken given her level of cultivation.

Shangguan Liushuang looked at the young man in front of him with surprise, shook her head slightly and said, "I'm fine."

Gu Cheng looked at Shangguan Liushuang. Although he felt helpless, he still bowed slightly and said, "Senior, I have no intention of offending you, but the situation is tense now and we cannot afford to delay any longer. I hope you will not stop me."

Shangguan Liushuang took a deep breath, trying to endure the pain in her heart, and looked at Gu Cheng with complicated eyes: "Boy, your strength is beyond my expectation. But I can't let go of the matter between you and Jianqiu easily. I will let you go today, but I will make you give an explanation in the future."

Gu Cheng sighed inwardly, knowing that this matter might not end so easily, but he had no time to think about it at the moment. After he saluted again, he used his body skills and quickly disappeared like a stream of black light.

Shangguan Liushuang looked at Gu Cheng's departing back and murmured to himself, "This kid has quite a few secrets."

She put away the sword that now had a gap in it, and secretly thought about Gu Cheng's strength and his complicated relationships with many women.

Gu Cheng sped along the way and soon arrived at Kong Zhaoling's residence. At this time, Kong Zhaoling was sitting alone in the palace, with the moonlight shining on her, adding a bit of loneliness to her cold temperament.

"Ling'er." Gu Cheng called softly and slowly approached.

Kong Zhaoling raised his head and looked at him coldly: "What are you doing here?"

Gu Cheng sat down opposite her and sighed slightly: "Ling'er, I know that you are unhappy about the Queen's sudden activation of the Ten Absolute Formations today. But I definitely don't intend to hide it from you. Now that we are facing a powerful enemy, we really can't let these things cause any grudges."

Kong Zhaoling snorted lightly: "Gu Cheng, I believe in you, but did you inform me in advance about what happened today? I am not an unreasonable person, but I also have my own feelings."

Gu Cheng reached out and held her hand, and said sincerely: "Ling'er, you are irreplaceable in my heart. But the situation is complicated now, and various forces are involved. I can't be negligent in the slightest. My feelings for you have never changed."

Kong Zhaoling looked at his determined eyes, and the resentment in her heart gradually dissipated, but she was still a little unwilling: "So what are your plans for the future? You can't always be so unclear."

Gu Cheng said seriously: "After the dragon crisis is resolved, I will handle everything properly. I will give you a satisfactory answer and will not let you suffer any more grievances."

Kong Zhaoling was silent for a moment, then nodded gently: "I hope you can keep your word. I don't want these things to affect the overall situation, but I feel really bad."

Gu Cheng gently held her in his arms: "I understand, thank you for your hard work."

After comforting Kong Zhaoling, Gu Cheng rushed to Qiu Ninglu's residence without stopping. Qiu Ninglu was standing in front of the window, staring into the distance in a trance.

"Ninglu." Gu Cheng walked into the room and said softly.

Qiu Ninglu turned around, a complex emotion flashed in her eyes: "You are here, what do you want from me?"

Gu Cheng walked up to her and said, "Ninglu, I want to explain to you what happened today. I know you may have resentment towards me, but I really can't help myself." Qiu Ninglu sneered, "Can't help myself? Gu Cheng, have you ever considered my safety?"

Gu Cheng sighed: "Ninglu, I admit that my previous behavior may have caused you to misunderstand. But in my heart, you are also a very important person. Now that the dragon clan is in crisis, we can't destroy the alliance because of personal feelings."

Qiu Ninglu looked at him, her eyes gradually softening: "Gu Cheng, I am not unreasonable, but seeing you with them makes me feel uncomfortable. I hope you can consider my feelings more."

Gu Cheng nodded: "I will, Ninglu. You and I have been through so much together, don't you still understand my feelings? Right now, I hope you can trust me, and we can get through this difficult time together."

Qiu Ninglu nodded slightly: "Okay, I believe you this time. But if you disappoint me again, I will never forgive you easily."

Gu Cheng felt warm in his heart and held her hand: "Thank you, Ninglu."

After coming out from Qiu Ninglu, Gu Cheng finally breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, both women temporarily put aside their grudges.

After pondering for a moment, Gu Cheng finally came to the place where Murong Jianqiu was resting.

The candlelight flickered in the room. Murong Jianqiu was sitting beside the bed, gently stroking the sword in his hand.

Hearing footsteps, she looked up and saw that it was Gu Cheng. The corners of her lips slightly raised, revealing a faint smile.

"You're here." Murong Jianqiu said softly, his voice as gentle as a whisper.

Gu Cheng walked over to her and sat down. His eyes fell on the sword in Murong Jianqiu's hand and he sighed, "Jianqiu, I'm sorry for making you suffer today."

Murong Jianqiu shook his head slightly and looked at him gently: "I know you have your difficulties. The situation is tense now, so how can I not understand. But... when I see the way those women look at you, I still feel a little uncomfortable."

Gu Cheng held her hand tighter and blamed himself, "It's my fault for not considering your feelings. But you have to believe that you will always be the most important person in my heart, the mother of my child, and my Taoist partner."

Murong Jianqiu looked at him with a mist in his eyes: "Gu Cheng, we have come this far and experienced so many ups and downs, how can I not believe you? It's just that I don't want to lose you, I don't want to..."

Gu Cheng gently embraced her in his arms, resting his chin on the top of her head: "Don't worry, no matter what happens, I will always be by your side. When this dragon crisis is resolved, we will find a quiet place and live a good life without being disturbed by these trivial matters."

Murong Jianqiu leaned in his arms and said softly, "I don't ask you to be good to me alone, but I ask that you always have a place for me and the child in your heart.

I just heard that Grandmaster Shangguan is causing trouble for you? She is my Grandmaster, and although she has a stubborn temper, she is also thinking about me.

Gu Cheng thought of the conflict with Shangguan Liushuang, but he didn't expect the news to spread so quickly.

He smiled bitterly and said, "She really did it for your own good, and I have no intention of offending her. It's just that the situation is so urgent right now that there is no time to waste. But don't worry, I will handle my relationship with her well and won't make things difficult for you."

Murong Jianqiu nodded, raised his head from his arms, and looked into his eyes: "I know you have your own plans. But no matter what happens in the future, you must discuss it with me, and don't carry it alone. We are Taoist companions, and we must share the joys and sorrows."

Gu Cheng looked at her serious expression, and was touched. He gently kissed her on the forehead: "Okay, I promise you." (End of this chapter)
