The moment the plane landed, he turned on his phone and saw the missed call from Gu Ning.
Gu Ning called him, which meant she had finished the task, but he was worried that she might have encountered some trouble, so he called her back at once.
Once Gu Ning answered his call, Leng Shaoting asked anxiously, “Ningning, how is it?”
“Everything went well. I already handed the criminals to Xin Bei and I’m on my way to Huafu Hills now,” said Gu Ning with a warm smile on her lips.
Hearing that, Leng Shaoting was finally relieved, but he still asked, “Are you injured?”
“Not at all. I’m safe and sound!” said Gu Ning.
“Great, I’ll go to Huafu Hills to meet you right away,” said Leng Shaoting. He should deal with the criminals first, but he was too worried about Gu Ning. He had to see her first so that he could relax.
“Sure,” said Gu Ning. If she didn’t allow Leng Shaoting to come over, he wouldn’t relax. Therefore, she agreed and they would deal with the criminals later.
“Is that your fiancé?” Si Jin asked.
They had good hearing, so they heard Gu Ning’s conversation with Leng Shaoting on the phone. They could feel that Leng Shaoting was very worried about Gu Ning.
“Yeah, he’ll come in a while, so I’ll introduce him to you later,” said Gu Ning.
“Great.”
Jiang Liluo and Si Jin nodded.
After sitting in the car for a long time, Si Jin began to feel dizzy. She was carsick.
Jiang Liluo also felt a little uncomfortable, but it wasn’t serious, so he didn’t pay much attention to it.
“Jin, are you alright?” Jiang Liluo asked with concern.
“I’m a little dizzy,” said Si Jin.
“She’s carsick. Normally, people who don’t often drive in a car will feel carsick. It’s like you’re drunk. Don’t worry, she’ll be fine after she gets out of the car,” said Gu Ning. Then she took out a porcelain bottle with power crystals inside and gave it to Jiang Liluo. “Tell Senior Si to take this medicine; she’ll be more comfortable. If you’re uncomfortable as well, take a pill too.”
“Thank you, Junior Gu.” Jiang Liluo didn’t doubt Gu Ning’s words. He took the porcelain bottle and thanked her, then opened it.
Once he opened the porcelain bottle, a flow of magical power came out, which surprised Jiang Liluo and Si Jin.
“Junior Gu, this is a magical pill!” The first idea that appeared in Jiang Liluo’s mind was that it was a magical pill. If it was really a magical pill, it must be very precious. It would be a waste if they used them to treat car sickness.
“It’s solidified magical power. It’s very useful,” said Gu Ning.
“It’s too precious. I don’t think it should be wasted to treat such a minor illness,” said Jiang Liluo. He felt that he shouldn’t take it.
“Yeah, I’m fine. I’m just a little dizzy. I’ll be fine in a while,” said Si Jin.
“Don’t worry, I have countless power crystals. I always give some to my family to help them stay healthy. If you need more, you can ask me for it in the future,” said Gu Ning. She was very generous to them.
Both Jiang Liluo and Si Jin were touched by Gu Ning’s kindness, so they accepted it.
“Thank you so much, Junior Gu.” Jiang Liluo and Si Jin thanked her.
“Don’t say that. We belong to the same sect after all,” said Gu Ning with a smile.
Hearing that, Jiang Liluo and Si Jin were very touched and had a better impression of Gu Ning.
After that, each of them took a pill. As soon as they took the power crystal, they felt much better.
Half an hour later, Gu Ning took Jiang Liluo and Si Jin back to Huafu Hills.
At the gate, Gu Ning parked the car. She told Jiang Liluo and Si Jin to wait for her in the car, while she went to do grocery shopping in the supermarket. Then with all the ingredients they needed, they went to Gu Ning’s house.
At this time, it was only 8:30 am. Cao Wenxin wasn’t up yet, so she didn’t know that Gu Ning was already back.
That was good, because Gu Ning didn’t know how to explain it if Cao Wenxin saw Jiang Liluo and Si Jin. After all, Cao Wenxin didn’t know that people with superpowers really existed.
Gu Ning brought Jiang Liluo and Si Jin into her place and told them to sit on the sofa. She had called the staff at Gufan to bring several sets of clothes over, so Jiang Liluo and Si Jin could have a shower and change their clothing afterwards.
However, at the moment, Gu Ning needed to make breakfast for Jiang Liluo and Si Jin.
She made noodles for the three of them.
Jiang Liluo and Si Jin hadn’t eaten for a long time and Gu Ning was afraid that noodles might not be enough, so she bought some beamed buns and eggs as well.
Gu Ning was right. Jiang Liluo and Si Jin hadn’t had any food for too long, so a bowl of noodles was hardly enough. They ate several big beamed buns and eggs to fill their stomach.
“Um, sorry, we haven’t eaten for so long, so we’re starving…” Jiang Liluo and Si Jin said, feeling slightly embarrassed.
“It’s fine. Actually, when my master left the tower, he alone ate as much food as eight men!” Gu Ning joked.
Jiang Liluo and Si Jin were amazed. It was too much!
It seemed that Shangguan Yang was also starving back then.
“Oh, you just said Senior Shangguan came out from a tower. Can you tell us what tower it is?” Jiang Liluo asked in confusion.
“The tower at the back of the Kunlun Sect’s place. He had been cultivated in it for hundreds of years. He never left it. There was food on it, so he wasn’t too hungry. He’s just bad at cooking, so he couldn’t help eating a lot once he saw delicious food.” Gu Ning laughed.
“Oh, I didn’t know that Senior Shangguan never left the Kunlun Sect’s place. Junior Gu, may I know how you met Senior Shangguan?” Jiang Liluo asked. He was very curious about it.
“Well, my fiancé’s mother is a cultivator. She went missing about ten years ago. We thought she was already dead since we didn’t know that she’s a cultivator. After that, we ran into evil cultivators and my fiancé was injured in the fight. When the evil cultivator attacked him, a strong power suddenly erupted from his energy center. He managed to become a cultivator like that, but because the magical energy is very thin now and is barely enough for cultivation, my fiancé and I went to the Kunlun Sect’s place after we heard that there was thick magical energy.. That’s how we ended up at the back of the mountain.”
