The metaphysical mother returns, and the villain son stands at attention

Chapter 271 Soul Power Loss
Gu Qingyin smiled, "Not only that, my son is already quite big."

Li Tianshi suddenly relaxed, even laughed out loud, and shook his head and said, "You look younger than me. Okay, I understand what you mean."

He sighed and said, "Don't mention it, your way of rejecting people is quite unique."

Gu Qingyin frowned in confusion. What was he rejecting? What was so special?
"Go up quickly." Li Tianshi covered his chest exaggeratedly, "Give me some time to heal myself."

Gu Qingyin walked away in confusion. It was not until she went up two floors that she realized what Master Li meant. She felt it was incredible.

Isn’t it a bit too fast that Li Tianshi fell out of love, and he has a very strong ability to accept it?

Gu Qingyin shook her head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and then put the matter behind her and plunged into the sea of books. It was not until Master Li Tian came to call her that she struggled out to take a breath.

Floating to the beverage area on the first floor like a wandering soul, Gu Qingyin unpacked her lunch box while sighing, "Those books seem to suck my energy. I get tired very quickly every time I read them."

Li Tianshi's smile froze for a moment, then he immediately laughed and said, "You have a very rich imagination. Your husband will never be bored with you." He shook his head and sighed, half-seriously, "It's a pity that I'm late."

Gu Qingyin looked at the delicious dishes and finally recovered some of her energy. Hearing what he said, she just smiled politely and thought to herself: Even if you came earlier, I would still look down on you. Don't be too confident.

"Wow, your bento looks delicious." Li Tianshi showed envy, "Is your husband a househusband? His cooking skills look pretty good."

"House husband?" Gu Qingyin was stunned, then couldn't help laughing. Under Li Tianshi's puzzled gaze, she explained with a smile, "His cooking is indeed very delicious, but... this is the first time someone has used this word to describe him. It sounds very interesting."

Li Tianshi still didn't quite understand, but seeing that Gu Qingyin had already begun to concentrate on enjoying the food, he stopped asking and stood up and said tactfully: "I'm going to eat something too. You can take a rest after you finish eating. Combining work and rest will make you more efficient."

Gu Qingyin nodded in agreement.

After she finished her meal, she found a corner, leaned back in her chair and took a nap. She didn’t know if it was because of her posture or what, but she felt even more tired after she got up.

Gu Qingyin rubbed her head, wondering, has her resistance to the formation book reached this level? Or should Huo Yunjing come to the association to retake the temporary Heavenly Master Certificate?

When he came out of the association in the evening, Gu Qingyin yawned one after another.

Huo Yunjing frowned upon seeing this, pulled her in front of him, and lowered his head to touch her forehead, "Tell me what you did today?"

Gu Qingyin said, "Hmm?" "I didn't do anything, just read a book. It made me dizzy. I really have no interest in battle formations. If it's related to spells and talismans, I will definitely be more interested the more I read."

"No." Huo Yunjing said, "Your soul power loss is very serious. Don't you feel it?"

Gu Qingyin was surprised. "But I really didn't do anything except reading. I just took a nap after lunch..." She paused. "Indeed, I felt even more tired when I woke up."

"There's a problem with the library, don't go there again." Huo Yunjing pursed his lips, stood up straight and looked towards the entrance of the association with deep eyes.

“How could this happen…” Gu Qingyin found it unbelievable. That was the most important place in the Tianshi Association, how could such a problem occur?

"If that were the case, shouldn't it have been discovered long ago?"

Huo Yunjing shook his head. "There are very few people who read books in the library for such a long time like you. You felt tired yesterday, but it was still within the normal range. Today is another day, and the speed at which your soul power is lost is slower than its recovery."

Indeed, Zhang Qiuyan did not stay for long yesterday before leaving. The same was true for other Heavenly Masters. They all found what they were looking for, solved the problems they needed to solve, and then left soon. Everyone came and went in a hurry.

"No." Gu Qingyin thought of Li Tianshi, "The librarian of the library is there every day..." "Does he read books?" Huo Yunjing asked.

Gu Qingyin frowned, "Is reading a book a necessary condition?" She asked hesitantly, "Do you think the Tianshi Association knows about this?"

"Eighty percent of them know." Huo Yunjing's expression was slightly cold. "After all, it's an important place, how could they not know?"

"Do the other Heavenly Masters know?" Gu Qingyin asked herself, "They probably don't know. Zhang Qiuyan didn't remind me yesterday."

Gu Qingyin pursed her lips, took out her phone and called Gu Ziqian, "Senior, do you know anything about the association's library?"

"Hmm?" Gu Ziqian said lazily, "You mean the matter of absorbing soul power by reading books?"

Gu Qingyin's eyes widened, "You know?"

"This is not a secret." Gu Ziqian laughed and explained, "The level of the protective formation outside the library is very high. The association can't afford it, so they came up with this idea. Every day, they extract some soul power from the heavenly masters who go in and out of the library to read, and convert it into power for the formation to operate."

"The amount extracted is very small, and it has almost no effect on the Heavenly Master." At this point, Gu Ziqian suddenly reacted, "You went to the library to read? How long did you read?"

Gu Qingyin: “…two days.”

"This is nonsense!" Gu Ziqian said in a serious voice, "Who took you there? Didn't she tell you not to stay in the library for too long?"

"No." Gu Qingyin felt that Zhang Qiuyan couldn't be blamed entirely for this. "She probably didn't expect me to come for two consecutive days."

Gu Ziqian sighed, "Don't go out this week, just rest at home."

"Okay, thank you, senior."

Gu Qingyin hung up the phone, thought about it and decided to call Zhang Qiuyan.

Zhang Qiuyan answered the call quickly, "Qingyin?"

Gu Qingyin didn't know how to start for a moment and suddenly fell silent.

Zhang Qiuyan glanced at the phone in confusion. It was still connected, so she asked again, "Qingyin? Why aren't you talking?"

"Nothing." Gu Qingyin coughed lightly, "I just wanted to ask when you left yesterday. I wanted to treat you to dinner."

Zhang Qiuyan smiled and said, "I'll leave after I finish looking up the information. You don't have to be so polite to me. I'm happy to help you. How was your reading? Did you gain anything?"

Gu Qingyin sighed, "Not so fast, I'll probably have to live in the library."

Zhang Qiuyan suddenly said "Ah" and her voice became anxious, "Qingyin, have you stayed in the library for a long time these two days? I forgot to tell you something very important."

"You can't stay in the library for too long. The formation will drain the spiritual power of the Heavenly Master. It will be dangerous if you stay for too long!" Zhang Qiuyan was very anxious. "Are you okay now? I'll come find you wherever you are."

Gu Qingyin smiled and said, "At the entrance of the association. I'm going to eat now. See you in the city."
