Chapter 64: Determined to Succeed

Gu Yang asked, “Miss Xu, the Locking Bracelet has been removed. What are your plans for the future?”

“Thank you, Brother Gu, for your hospitality these past few days. After a couple of days, I’ll leave and continue my travels,” Xu Ruomei subtly changed her address.

Unconsciously, their relationship began to subtly change. “What about you, Brother Gu? Are you planning to stay in Ping county city?”

There seemed to be a hint of expectation in her eyes.

For her, this question was already pushing her to her limit.

Gu Yang understood her hidden hopes, but he chose not to respond, “I don’t think I can stay here much longer. The road of the Jianghu is long; we will inevitably meet again.”

A hint of disappointment surfaced in Xu Ruomei’s heart. This thought, which she couldn’t explain to others, disturbed her tranquil heart. She carefully controlled her emotions.

Before leaving, she suddenly said, “It would be wise to keep some distance from your maid.”

Gu Yang smiled lightly, “Thank you for the warning.”

It seemed Xu Ruomei had figured out Ling Ling’s identity.

However, he didn’t ask.

After all, there was no need to. Seeing how many First Rank powerhouses had come to stop Ling Ling as she tried to break through to the Divine Power realm, he could only imagine how troublesome the burdens she bore must be.

Anyway, his plate of troubles was already full. Leaving aside other matters, once the news that he was cultivating the “Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens” technique spread, it would be a disaster.

Shen Family would certainly send someone to retrieve it.

This family was one of the strongest forces in Great Zhou, known as one of the prestigious nine surnames, and had a Divine Power realm expert overlooking their affairs.

No matter how big Ling Ling’s trouble was, it couldn’t be bigger than this, could it?

As long as it was not an imminent problem, it could be postponed.

Ling Ling’s trouble, which would only come eighteen years later, could be placed at the end of the priority list. He didn’t even want to think about it.

Well, he would cross the bridge when he got there.

After Xu Ruomei left, Gu Yang once again opened the system.

“At the age of twenty-two, you have reached the Third Rank in Cultivation Level and are ranked seventh on the Hidden Dragon List, making your name known far and wide. Sympathetic to Xue E’s plight, you decided to help the

Fang Family break free from the Lin Family’s control. After negotiating with

Lin Zihua, you secured his promise.”

“The following day, sensing danger, you quietly left on your own. Afterwards, you incognito yourself in a small mountain village and lived as a hunter, with nobody knowing the fact that you were once a Third-Rank warrior.”

“Three years later, a gang of bandits intruded into the mountain village and slaughtered the villagers, with you the only one who managed to escape. You did not avenge them, but chose to continue living incognito.”

“One day, you encountered a frightened horse. When it stopped before you, the lady of a prominent family riding it believed that you saved her and took you back to the Villa, assigning you to take care of her horse.”

“Two years later, the lady of the prominent family, unsatisfied with the arranged marriage at home, ran away on a horse. You were implicated and had to flee from the villa.’

“One day, you met Cao Yiyi. She took a liking to you and forced you to become her driver. From then on, you drove the carriage for her, wandering aimlessly with her while she sought the man she resented.”

“During the journey, Cao Yiyi attracted attention wherever she went, with the thrill of playing with those men infatuated with her providing her amusement.”

“Three years later, Cao Yiyi finally provoked a First Rank powerhouse whose only son she killed. In the midst of his rage, he sought vengeance. You seized the opportunity of Cao Yiyi’s moment of panic and left overnight.”

“One day, you met Xu Ruomei, who had already reached the Second Grade and had killed Lin Zisheng with her sword. She was standing by the river, seemingly melancholic. You did not reveal yourself and quietly left.”

“Again you hid in a small mountain village. A year later, Ling Ling came to the door and passed on the ‘Heavenly Elemental God Slaying Art’ to you. You did not ask her to stay, and she just left.”

“Another year later, Ling Ling returned and told you that Su Qingzhen and Zhang Xiao Hai were killed by Shen Baiyi. You did not say anything, and she
