Chapter 1296: Chapter 1316: Missing Him Doesn’t Conflict with Missing You_1

Lin Chen was greatly surprised, Gu Yuexi had already reached the late stage of Void Separation?

She’s cultivating at such a high speed!

The reputation of the Water Spirit Body is truly well-deserved!

Even with all the adventures Lin Chen himself had, he had just reached the Early Stage of Void Separation. Gu Yuexi had only just reached the Foundation Establishment Period at the start, but with the acquisition of the Five Elements Essence, her strength surged like she was on a cheat mode, even surpassing him.

"Did I hear right that she was in seclusion in the Cangshan Forbidden Area?"

Hu Hao laughed and said, "Yes, our Forbidden Area is not a place where ordinary people can stand. This little girl Gu Yuexi is cruel to herself; she has stayed and hasn’t left. She’s been pushing her limits. Additionally, as she has the Water Spirit Body, she has absorbed a lot of Water Essence, tempering her physique, making her cultivation even more effective..."

Lin Chen was silent for a while. He knew the reason for Gu Yuexi’s relentless cultivation and tolerance of hardships. Wasn’t it just to stand side by side with him, to help him, and not become a burden to him?

Hu Hao’s gaze fell on Chu Jiaxue’s face, and he curiously asked, "Who is this..."

"This is Chu Jiaxue, my wife, she is also Gu Yuexi’s cousin."

Lin Chen was not hesitant to disclose the relationship between the three of them to strangers. Any furtiveness in his words would only brew discomfort.

"She was originally the Son of Penglai, but now, with Penglai facing changes, she is ready to take on the role of the Penglai Cave Master."

Hu Hao was shocked, not because Chu Jiaxue was also Lin Chen’s wife, but he was surprised that she was so young and about to become the Penglai Cave Master?

What happened?

What about the original Cave Master?

Hu Hao asked, "What happened to Penglai?""

Lin Chen did not hide the truth from him either and roughly explained the situation in Penglai and Mystical Immortal Island. Finally, he reminded "He doesn’t know my identity, and I haven’t shown my true face. But if he investigates, he will find out about my relationship with Jiaxue and might seek trouble with me."

"Not many outsiders know about my relationship with Gu Yuexi. Normally, he wouldn’t dare to trouble Cangshan. However, Hu Cave Master should still be careful. I estimate for a while, the Divine Soul of the immortals from Mystical Immortal Island could potentially pose a huge threat."

Hu Hao’s complexion changed slightly. His reaction was much like Chen Meifeng and the others. After all, anyone would be shocked knowing that in the Barren Wilderness, hundreds or even thousands of Immortal’s Divine Souls reside.

Hu Hao said cleanly, "In that case, I will temporarily close the Cave World. Even if he is an Immortal, his strength in this realm is limited, so he probably can’t break into it."

Lin Chen nodded, "That’s good. This matter will most likely be resolved when the Xuanji Fairy responds."

Hu Hao sighed, "I originally thought that I knew much about this world. But it seems I knew nothing at all. Mystical Immortal Island turns out to be a place that consumes humans, and yet everyone regards it as a Holy Land, fighting to get the Bewildering Immortal Order..."

While the two were chatting, Gu Yuexi came in from the entrance of the Main Hall. Her eyes swept around the hall, and then suddenly stopped!

"Brother Chen!"

"Sister!"

"What brings you two here?"

Lin Chen laughed, "I heard you were in seclusion previously. Since we were passing by, I figured I’d see if you’ve finished..."

Gu Yuexi was overjoyed and hurriedly greeted Sect Master but her heart had already flown to Lin Chen.

Looking at Gu Yuexi and Chu Jiaxue, whose faces were almost the same but had completely different temperaments, Hu Hao couldn’t help but sigh inwardly. Lin Chen indeed had remarkable abilities.

When he was still in the human world, he had smartly sent Gu Yuexi to Cangshan and Chu Jiaxue to Penglai, while he himself went to Nanyue Hengshan. In just a few years, all three of them had become top-tier powerhouses of the Void stage.

The most outstanding disciples of Nanyue Hengshan, Cangshan and Penglai, and in all likelihood, they would ascend to immortality together in the future.

Such ability!

"Since Cangshan has decided to go into seclusion, and Gu Yuexi, you have finished your seclusion, you might as well go with Chairman Lin. You spend less time together and more time apart. Now is a good opportunity to spend time together."

Gu Yuexi was more than delighted and promptly thanked, "Thank you, Sect Master."

Lin Chen expressed his thanks by cupping his hands, "I’m sorry for the inconvenience. Please forgive us."

Hu Hao smiled and said, "You’ve exposed the truth about Mystical Immortal Island and killed those man-eating Soul Immortals. You’ve done a good thing. There’s no need to apologize for some minor karmic repercussions. If we weren’t prepared and they went to Cangshan, it would have been difficult for us to resist. But now that we are prepared, I doubt they would find it so easy to enter. Chairman Lin, don’t worry about it."

Lin Chen nodded, "I’ll resolve this issue as soon as possible."

After chatting for a while, Lin Chen took his leave, and Hu Hao didn’t try to hold him back any longer, only instructing Gu Yuexi to take care of Lin Chen.

As soon as she left the Main Hall, Gu Yuexi immediately hugged Chu Jiaxue tightly, "Sister, I’ve missed you so much."

Chu Jiaxue smiled and said, "Did you miss me, or the guy next to me?"

Gu Yuexi chuckled, "Missing him and missing you don’t conflict."

Chu Jiaxue reached out and pinched Gu Yuexi’s cheek, feeling both sympathy and fondness.

The grandpa she relied on had come to the Barren Wilderness, and Lin Chen had his mother and aunt by his side. But Gu Yuexi’s parents did not come; it was just her and Lin Chen.

Lin Chen went back to the human world to pick up people, but her parents didn’t come. She must have felt lost when she heard the news, right?
