Chapter 2136: Zhizhi and Chubby Chiu Advance

Yan Ke heard this and the coldness in his eyes immediately subsided. He turned to look at Gu Zhiqi, "Hmm? Why place it on her?"

Gu Zhiqi shrugged, "Not sure yet."

Yan Ke, upon hearing this, tugged at his sideburns, pondered for a long time, and still couldn’t figure it out.

In the end, he gave up thinking about it and asked another question, "Why did you call me here?"

"To set up a formation to extract her destiny." Gu Zhiqi said, pointing to the formation diagram on the ground, "A Three-Star Talisman Array, missing one person."

Yan Ke stared at the talisman array on the ground for a few seconds, then looked at Gu Zhiqi with a gloomy gaze, "You called me here just to be a tool to activate the formation?"

Does this formation really need a Ninth-order Mystic Master like him to take action?

Any first or second order Mystic Master could easily activate it, right?

Gu Zhiqi could naturally guess Yan Ke’s thoughts, and looked at him with a hint of innocence, saying, "Can others’ relationships compare to ours?"

Yan Ke was silent for a moment, then after a few seconds, covered his mouth and began to laugh.

When the laughter stopped, the smile on his lips hadn’t faded. Yan Ke reached out and patted Gu Zhiqi on the shoulder, "Our relationship is unmatched, for such matters, it’s only right to find me."

After speaking, he immediately found a spot within the circle and stood there.

Two hours later, the extraction of destiny was complete.

The moment the destiny returned to Gu Zhiqi’s body, she felt her cultivation level loosen, as if...

She was about to advance.

So, Gu Zhiqi handed the talisman paper containing Xu Yuan’s destiny to Yan Ke, letting him and Gu Xiyue return it to Xu Yuan, while she went to meditate.

Yan Ke could only accept the task resignedly.

After restoring Xu Yuan’s destiny to her body, Yan Ke let Xu Yuan leave.

"When will Qiqi... be done?"

Yan Ke tugged at his sideburns, shaking his head, "It won’t be finished anytime soon, looks like she’s about to advance."

"After the fifth order, any advancement requires long closed-door cultivation time. Some people can complete it in a few days, while others may spend a hundred years in closed-door cultivation and still may not come out. Moreover, the higher the order, the longer the closed-door time."

Gu Xiyue heard this, her eyebrows furrowing slightly, "How long does Qiqi need?"

Yan Ke shook his head, "Not sure, but considering her aptitude, it should be at most a few years."

Gu Xiyue: "..."

Is a few years short?

After staying in Gu Zhiqi’s room for a while, the two planned to leave.

"Are we just going to leave Qiqi here alone?" Gu Xiyue sounded a bit worried.

Yan Ke: "I’ll find someone reliable to watch over her later."

Gu Xiyue was still somewhat worried, "The person watching... are they reliable?"

Yan Ke nodded, "Of course reliable, don’t worry, closed-door cultivation isn’t complete unconsciousness. If someone were to maliciously disturb her, she’d be able to wake up even during closed-door cultivation, not just passively take it."

Gu Xiyue thought about it, found it reasonable, and nodded.

As the two walked out of the room and were about to close the door, a voice stopped them, "Wait a minute."

Yan Ke paused in his action of closing the door.

Gu Xiyue also followed the voice and looked over, then noticed Chubby Chiu.

Chubby Chiu looked a bit tired. Upon seeing the two, he immediately asked, "Is Zhizhi about to advance?"

Yan Ke didn’t know Chubby Chiu, so he didn’t reply, while Gu Xiyue nodded.

Seeing this, Chubby Chiu said no more, pushed open the door, and directly entered the room, "I’m about to advance too, I’ll join Zhizhi."

Gu Xiyue: ?

Yan Ke: ??

No, it’s not like it’s dual cultivation, why would advancing need to be done together?
