Chapter 194: Weighing It Up…

As is well known, when a man kisses, his hands are no longer under the control of his mind. Naturally, they will want to grab onto something. Thus, even though Ye Chen had no such intention, He reached out and gently supported, giving it a light shake. He felt the weight.

Originally with her eyes closed, Gu Yunyun instantly widened them in shock. Her body then retreated violently, her eyes looking at Ye Chen in disbelief. She had always known that her disciple Ye Chen was bold. But she never expected that his boldness could be this great.

The fragrance that had been in Ye Chen’s mouth disappeared, and he felt a sense of melancholy. He silently blamed his own hands. Why did they refuse to listen…? He wasn’t this kind of person.

“Master, let me explain…”

Ye Chen hurriedly began his explanation.

Gu Yunyun’s delicate face seemed to be tinted with the colors of the evening sunset, her watery eyes giving Ye Chen a reproachful glance. At this moment, scolding seemed inappropriate. Yet, not scolding also felt wrong.

Gu Yunyun could only mutter, “Unworthy disciple.”

Then, she turned and floated away. Although Ye Chen’s actions had somewhat exceeded Gu Yunyun’s expectations, she could already feel a sense of relief. Because she had followed her true feelings. No matter what the future held, at least at this moment, she had done what she needed to do. Next, she could officially break through to the Golden Core stage.

Watching as Master arrived quickly and left just as swiftly, Ye Chen still carried the lingering sweet fragrance in his mouth. He was somewhat baffled.

What had suddenly happened to Master?

His mind replayed the heavy sensation from earlier, and Ye Chen’s mood lifted. Although the benefits weren’t abundant, it could hardly be considered over the top to say they were a bit plain.

But after all, it was Master. He couldn’t be impatient. Once Master broke through to the Golden Core stage, perhaps she would give him even better benefits. However, would Master come out again soon?

With that thought, Ye Chen couldn’t help but look expectantly toward the peak.

…

In the following days, Gu Yunyun officially entered seclusion. She did not emerge even once. Ye Chen, on the other hand, settled down and began preparing for his own breakthrough to the Golden Core stage.

First, he called back his senior sister, Yao Xi. Their daily routine involved feedback and enjoying the full moon. Later, Ye Chen made time to take Sun Ruoxin and Lin Ke’er to Green Cloud City to meet Sun Ye.

Sun Ye’s gaze toward his daughter was complex. He had been somewhat unwilling when his daughter became Ye Chen’s maid. But under the pressure from Kong Xiangli, he had no choice but to agree. He had hoped that his daughter would bear Ye Chen a son or daughter and eventually become a concubine.

However, he had never imagined that after becoming a maid, his daughter’s cultivation would not stagnate, but instead, she had broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage.

Sun Ye had worked his whole life and, even after suffering injuries, never reached Foundation Establishment. Yet his daughter, by simply being a maid, had easily broken through. This made Sun Ye’s emotions complicated.

When Ye Chen arrived, he directly gifted Sun Ye a second-tier top-grade healing pill, as well as a Foundation Establishment Pill. This left Sun Ye wide-eyed.

Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.

“Green Cloud City is too small. After you break through to Foundation Establishment, I will take you and your daughter to Divine Will City. We’ll open a branch there, and you two can manage it. As for the Ye Boutique here, I’ll leave it to Lin Ke’er. You should focus on teaching her well during this time.”

Ye Chen gave his orders directly. It was also perfect timing, as Ye Chen planned to visit Divine Will City after a while to see if there were any new goods in Tianyan Pavilion. The path of cultivation, once severed, was now about to be resumed.
