Chapter 209  : The Breakthrough to True Warrior Tier III

Liu Yuchen was left speechless.

He would believe every single word said by Tan Shuangshuang without any doubt if this situation happened in the past.

However... he could not see his reflection in Feng Ruqing’s eyes anymore. He was unsure whether current Feng Ruqing still loved him like those days.

“You don’t have to worry, Shuang’er. Whether Feng Ruqing is still chasing after me or not, my determination will never change.” Liu Yuchen’s gentle, compassionate eyes looked determined. He was committed. “I will go home now and tell them my decision. I will come back and ask for your hand in marriage after you have recovered!”

Liu Yuchen was reluctant to bid farewell as he glanced at Tan Shuangshuang for the last time before leaving. He turned and walked toward the door.

Tan Shuangshuang’s gaze was still locked on Liu Yuchen. It was filled with complicated emotions.

Since Liu Yuchen had chosen Lady Liu over her, her hatred toward him was already rooted deep inside her heart.

However, this was not the right time to fall out with him.

Her father had been suspended from his official duty. She must... find someone else to rely on. Now, she could only make use of Liu Yuchen’s guilt and cling to him!

Two months flew by in the blink of an eye.

A young woman was meditating quietly on the back hill. Her body was surrounded by a flowing spiritual qi.

That spiritual qi transformed into a fine trace and surrounded her body before diffusing into her breathing system. It was then absorbed by her body.

Suddenly ...

The qi energy burst into dashing particles with a loud sound and entered her body at high speed.

Even Fu Chen and Qing Han, who stayed in the medium, could sense the strong spiritual qi. Their petite bodies were stiff from shock. Their eyes widened in disbelief.

“Brother Fu Chen, did Mother breakthrough to True Warrior tier?” Qing Han stared blankly at the sky.

Perhaps it was only her illusion. The sky seemed... a little disturbed as a turmoil started to form in the sky.

This...

How was this possible?

This medium was created by the Ninth Emperor. They had brought the medium along before they left. They had even kept Divine Herbs Sect inside the medium. Thus under normal circumstances, this medium had changed into another world. Except for Feng Ruqing who could enter and leave this place anytime she liked, this medium was unaffected by other energy influence.

However, why was this medium affected by the spiritual qi movement... if mother had only reached True Warrior-tier?

Why?

Fu Chen frowned, deep in thought. His cute eyes were serious.

“Did you realize that... the spiritual qi movement is... somehow familiar?”

“This...” Qing Han’s eyes widened in shock.

Last time, the Ninth Emperor watered them with his/her own spiritual qi instead of regular water. The previous Feng Ruqing was too weak, so there was barely any changes to this medium. Both of them could not sense anything.

However, Qing Han had managed to sense it this time. Her mother, who liked to take advantage of other people had similar spiritual qi... like the Ninth Emperor’s one.

Fu Chen bit his lips anxiously. “Qing Han, maybe we are overthinking. Better not let her know about this matter. Let’s pretend like nothing has happened. But... if the medium is already affected when she advanced to True Warrior tier, imagine what will happen if she continues to advance? What will happen to our medium?”

Perhaps... they could leave this place earlier than expected?

On the back hill.

The meditating young woman finally opened her eyes slowly. She stood up and found that her clothes had become loose. She smiled in satisfaction. Her lips curved up. “Looks like the first thing I need to do after leaving this hill is to get well-fitting clothes for myself.”

She had not left this place in these two months.

In fact, all her meals and herbal dish were sent by the Four-Armed Ape in order not to disturb her training so that she could fully concentrate on her training.

Although she could not totally slim down in two months, it was a massive change for her compared to her old self. For instance, she could not fit in this dress anymore...
