Chapter 1942 - 1940: Mr. Qin, Mrs. Qin (3)
Chapter 1942: Chapter 1940: Mr. Qin, Mrs. Qin (3)
She had never imagined before that any evening dress she wore could be worth a million, or that a pair of shoes with diamonds worth fifty thousand each.
Her pair of high heels was adorned with a total of ninety-nine small diamonds.
She was very happy.
Qin Yize’s handsome brows were filled with a smile, completely different from how he was in the banquet hall earlier; all his tenderness was given to Gu Qiaoqiao.
The woman he loved most in this life.
"Qiaoqiao, I will make you happier and happier."
After today, his wealth is calculated in units of billions.
Under strict lockdown, he finally led the Qin Group to forge his own path, creating a legend.
Although there were still many voices of doubt, the avalanche of orders was enough to show that he would capture 80% of this world’s market.
The domestic consumption shouldn’t be underestimated either.
So unlike before, he would be very busy in the future, but he tried not to let this busyness affect his life.
Then Qin Yize’s deep, magnetic voice slowly sounded, "Qiaoqiao, many people called you Mrs. Qin today, I really like to hear it."
The feeling was indescribable.
Gu Qiaoqiao smiled with curving eyes. She and Qin Yize had attended many banquets before, but no one had ever called her Mrs. Qin, a term that had just become popular recently.
She teased, "Then what should I call you? Mr. Qin?"
"Mm." Qin Yize nodded slightly.
Seemingly unsatisfied, he softly called again,
"Mrs. Qin."
"Mr. Qin."
After a brief silence, they couldn’t help but look at each other and laugh.
Qin Yize slightly lowered his head, his eyes as bright as stars reflecting the silhouette of his wife, reached out, and embraced his Mrs. Qin, then casually pressed a switch on the wall.
The night, softly enveloped in a heavy mist.
The stars in the sky twinkled with brilliant and magnificent light.
On such a night, although the air was biting cold, it was peaceful and serene.
...
All things are connected.
These four words were perfectly embodied in Gu Qiaoqiao, who discovered that when she worked hard, even she was afraid of herself.
After integrating the Barrier Talisman and the Ice Arrow Talisman together, within a week, Gu Qiaoqiao also combined two talismans for subduing demons and vanquishing them together.
In this world, she had never seen a demon, nor had she seen evil spirits, and these two talismans had never been used, but she still combined the two, because she wanted to see if these combined talismans could have an effect on Choo Lan.
After all, the talismans Gu Qiaoqiao used were condensed from spiritual energy, unlike before, where some Taoists needed cinnabar and yellow paper to draw talismans. Gu Qiaoqiao just needed to draw in the air with her fingers, and the talismans could be implanted into the other person’s body, undetected and unnoticed.
This newly researched talisman, Gu Qiaoqiao thought for a moment, named it the Evil Expelling Talisman.
All the ultimate evils in the world are composed of malevolent energy, she can summon malevolent energy, naturally, she should also be able to eliminate it.
For some reason, ever since mastering this talisman, Gu Qiaoqiao’s mind was filled with many things, as if long-sealed memories had been opened, it was an indescribable feeling. For example, several incantation methods appeared in her mind, one of which was called the Light Spirit Sword, which was drawn with talismans, but when held, felt like a real treasured sword, although it was actually made of spiritual energy.
This sword was similar to the one that Yun Duo had pulled out at the time.
Although she didn’t know if it would be useful in the future, having it was better than not. More importantly, Gu Qiaoqiao finally knew that the Heaven-reaching Talisman Incantation actually had nine levels.
She had just completed the first level.
Not, as her uncle had said, three levels.
In fact, each level was more difficult than the last. With their talent, reaching the second level was already impressive.
But if one could reach the ninth level, it is said that they could transcend beyond the three realms, which for Gu Qiaoqiao was like a myth.
She wasn’t too concerned about it, but she intended to work hard to cultivate the Heaven-reaching Talisman to the second level, having originally thought she would be stuck at the first level for the rest of her life.
Because Gu Qiaoqiao had tried several times and couldn’t open a space that connected with Chang Qing, because opening the Heaven-reaching Talisman required the right time, place, and people, and was not something that could be formed by simply drawing a talisman.
That time in the Phoenix Clan Divine Land, it was because there were two secret treasures, and the place where she stood happened to be a spiritual energy gathering spot, which by coincidence, allowed the space to be opened, rescuing Chu Chengfeng and Xiao Wen who were trapped inside. But such examples were not easy to replicate, and finding a place with as much spiritual energy as the Phoenix Clan was truly too difficult.
Moreover, even if she was on good terms with Sima Xiaowen, she couldn’t shamelessly take the Phoenix Clan’s treasures.
So Gu Qiaoqiao experimented several times, succeeding only for a brief few seconds.
Also, in her heart, Gu Qiaoqiao wasn’t ready to face Chang Qing, who was trapped in space-time.
According to Yun Duo’s description, and what she had seen, Chang Qing had changed, his once sunny smile now overshadowed by gloom.
His brows seemed always furrowed, laden with unspeakable thoughts.
Undeniably, Chang Qing’s concern was her, but what could she do? She truly only considered Chang Qing as a younger brother; otherwise, she wouldn’t have come to the Imperial Capital with Qin Yize back then.
What could she give back now, especially with Chang Qing holding such deep obsessions?
A safe way to resolve this issue had to be thought of. Although reaching the ninth level of the Heaven-reaching Talisman was impossible, if she could reach the fifth level, she could truly open space at will without any external aid.
Of course, aiming for the fifth level was almost like wishful thinking, but Gu Qiaoqiao wanted to try.
For herself, for her family, and also for Chang Qing.
She had gradually handed over school courses to her assistant, who was also her student, very intelligent, though it would take some time for them to teach independently. Thankfully, she only needed to go once a month, and the rest of the time she would visit the Gu Family’s jewelry company.
Gu Muran’s abilities were strong, and under his management, the company was thriving.
In truth, Gu Qiaoqiao also wanted a quiet life, going to work, coming home, taking care of her two children, just like a normal family, but reality did not permit it.
Her uncle’s whereabouts were unknown, and her unease was growing, feeling as though something had happened to him, and there was no news from Ling Nan either. They were together, if something happened, it would inevitably affect them both.
