Chapter 543: Little Aunt's Husband?

"Little Aunt, why didn't you send me a message before you came?"

"It's fortunate I didn't go too far from the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace, otherwise wouldn't you have made this trip for nothing?"

Residence Space.

Inside an exquisite Pavilion.

Feng Yichen looked at the stunning figure before him, her face veiled in thin silk, his expression filled with awe.

Although the two were a generation apart.

The age gap was not actually that large.

Gu Xinran had displayed powerful cultivation talent from a young age.

Although Feng Yichen's cultivation talent was also considered extremely strong, there was still a significant gap between him and Gu Xinran.

Added to that, he was somewhat dissolute by nature.

Although Gu Xinran was extremely protective of him to outsiders, that did not mean she wouldn't discipline him.

The number of times she had beaten him was even greater than his own father and mother.

And her strikes were heavier, too.

From childhood to adulthood, he had essentially been beaten up by Gu Xinran.

Regarding this Little Aunt, he could be said to be proud, awestruck, and fearful all at once.

Yesterday.

When Little Aunt arrived at the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace, he happened not to be in the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace.

Hearing that Little Aunt had come to find him.

He dared not show the slightest bit of negligence.

He rushed back at the fastest possible speed.

It was only just now that he returned to the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace.

Gu Xinran shook her head, "I'm not in a rush; waiting a few days is nothing."

Her tone of voice carried a trace of an elder's majesty amidst its calmness.

It was vastly different from when she was with Wang Jianqiang.

"It's still not very good to keep an elder waiting," Feng Yichen grinned.

Gu Xinran nodded, "Not bad, you're more sensible now than before."

"That's because Little Aunt sets a good example," Feng Yichen flattered her imperceptibly.

Gu Xinran glanced at him, "Alright, tell me about the matter of you being bullied before."

A look of embarrassment flashed across Feng Yichen's face, "Little Aunt heard about it too?"

"I haven't heard much, which is why I specifically came to ask you while passing by this time, and to help you vent your anger by the way."

Hearing Gu Xinran's words, Feng Yichen's eyes lit up.

Although Little Aunt had already graduated.

Her connections within the Immortal Palace had not completely vanished.

Nowadays, most of the Cultivators on the Immortal Palace's Heaven Ranking were acquainted with Little Aunt.

If...

Immediately following.

He thought of Wang Jianqiang's abilities again.

He couldn't help but reveal a dejected look.

That Wang Jianqiang was no pushover.

He was an Alchemist capable of refining Perfect Pills, after all.

Who would offend such a figure for the sake of a little favor?

Let alone outsiders.

Even his own father and grandfather.

If they knew he dared to go and provoke that Wang Jianqiang again, they would likely peel a layer of skin off him.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing Feng Yichen suddenly fall silent.

Gu Xinran frowned, "You aren't scared, are you?"

"Feng Yichen, I am not encouraging you to be aggressive and fight, but you must never be weak."

"Everyone is a Great Wilderness Immortal Palace Student; there is no need to fight to the death, but if you are stepped on, you must find a way to step back!"

Hearing Gu Xinran's dissatisfied voice, Feng Yichen shook his head helplessly, "Little Aunt, it's not what you think."

"I also want to take revenge, but the opponent I encountered this time is a bit different."

"Not to mention that it's almost impossible to get revenge, even if I could, Father and Grandfather would absolutely not agree to it."

Gu Xinran raised an eyebrow, "Does the other party have a very strong background?"

A look of conflict flashed across Feng Yichen's face, "No, he just comes from a remote, small region; his background isn't strong, it's just..."

"He himself is somewhat special."

"He is an Alchemy Cultivator, and his Alchemy ability is quite good; the students in the Immortal Palace are all unwilling to provoke him."

Feng Yichen had originally wanted to tell the truth.

But he really couldn't bring himself to praise Wang Jianqiang.

Therefore, he used the three words "quite good" to replace the two words "monstrous."

Upon hearing that the other party was an Alchemist.

Gu Xinran breathed a sigh of relief.

Originally, she had thought the other party possessed some special ability.

It turned out to be just an Alchemist.

Now that things had come to this, it was actually easier to handle.

Back when she learned she would be going on a mission with Wang Jianqiang, she had specifically looked up Wang Jianqiang's background.

She was very clear about how strong Wang Jianqiang's attainments in the Dao of Alchemy were!

To call him the number one person among the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace Students would not be an exaggeration in the slightest.

An Alchemist?

No matter how impressive, could he be more impressive than Wang Jianqiang?

Thinking of this, she smiled and shook her head, "Since that is the case, then leave it to me."

"I have a very good friend right inside the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace; with his help, there won't be the slightest mishap."

A very good friend?

Feng Yichen's expression shifted.

His aunt had quite a few friends, but she had never described any of them in such a way.

He looked at Gu Xinran and couldn't help but ask, "How good? Is it a man or a woman?"

Gu Xinran glared at Feng Yichen, "Very, very good, that's all."

After saying this, she hesitated for a moment, then added, "A man."

Upon hearing this, Feng Yichen couldn't help but reveal a look of surprise, "No way, Aunt, you aren't finding me an uncle, are you?"

"You brat, what kind of nonsense are you spouting?"

"Looking for a beating, are you?"

Gu Xinran raised her palm in embarrassment and annoyance.

Feng Yichen subconsciously retreated a few steps, and seeing the anger in Gu Xinran's eyes, he shrank his neck and said with some grievance, "Aunt, you have very few male friends to begin with, and they are all the type with very shallow ties."

"You've never used 'very, very good' to describe them before."

"With you suddenly changing like this, how can I not overthink it?"

Gu Xinran was startled, and her face instantly flushed red.

Seeing Gu Xinran's expression, Feng Yichen's eyes widened, "No way, Aunt, you wouldn't really be finding me an uncle, would you?"

"And it's a student who is still cultivating inside the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace???"

"You brat, it's not what you think; between us, we are purely just very good friends." Gu Xinran shook her head.

But her words sounded somewhat lacking in conviction to Feng Yichen's ears.

However, he looked at Gu Xinran.

In the end, he still didn't dare to continue dwelling on this topic.

He was afraid that if he kept talking, his aunt, in her embarrassment and annoyance, would really take action to teach him a lesson.

"Aunt, my aunt... *cough cough*, what is your good friend's name? What is his cultivation level?"

"My opponent is not someone an ordinary student would dare to touch."

Feng Yichen changed the subject.

Hearing Feng Yichen's words, Gu Xinran began to laugh.

Dare not touch?

Not to mention the Dao of Alchemy, just speaking of personal strength alone.

Wang Jianqiang had indeed defeated a Transformation Stage Cultivator.

Looking across the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace Students, who could compare?

"There shouldn't be anyone in this Great Wilderness Immortal Palace that my friend cannot touch, and his reputation within the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace is quite significant; you should know him."

"I have already notified him just now; once he arrives, you will know."

Oh?

That impressive?

Could it be the number one on the Heaven Ranking?

Come to think of it.

That number one on the Heaven Ranking seemed to have entered the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace in the same batch as his aunt.

He admired his aunt very much.

It must be him.

Aside from him.

With his aunt's standards, it would be impossible for her to take a fancy to anyone else.

If it were a normal friendship.

The other party might truly not offend Wang Jianqiang for his aunt's sake.

But if he were a future uncle, then that would be a different story.

The number one on the Heaven Ranking represents the strongest person among all current Great Wilderness Immortal Palace Students.

Wang Jianqiang is indeed very strong in the Dao of Alchemy, and he carries a lot of weight.

But Great Wilderness Immortal Palace Students are not allowed to seek help from people outside the academy for conflicts within the Immortal Palace.

With the number one on the Heaven Ranking helping, how could Wang Jianqiang still fight with him?

Thinking of this, Feng Yichen's expression suddenly became excited.

Hum~

Just at this moment.

Feng Yichen suddenly sensed a fluctuation in the Array outside his residence.

His eyes lit up.

"Aunt, it must be that good friend of yours who has arrived."

A moving smile appeared on Gu Xinran's face.

"Let's go, we shall go out to receive him."
