At this time, Gu Yanli had been pulled into the illusion.

He opened his eyes and his mother appeared in front of him.

"Great, Yan'er, you have a spiritual vein now."

There were still traces of tears on my mother's face.

What's going on? Why does this scene seem familiar?

Gu Yanli looked at his palm. He was clearly just... doing, huh?

I seem to have forgotten something

Gu Yanli felt a sharp pain in his head. He must have forgotten something.

"Yan'er, what's wrong with you? Yan'er?"

"Mom, I'm fine." Gu Yanli comforted his mother.

As long as he doesn't think about it, his head won't hurt.

"I'm glad you're okay. You must be hungry. I'll ask the kitchen to make you something you like."

Mother Gu gently wiped the cold sweat from Gu Yanli's forehead, her face full of love.

"Mother, where is my father?"

"Your father just went to receive the immortal from the Wanyao Sect, who is Yulan's master..."

Wanyao Sect, Shangguan Yulan.

Gu Yanli murmured these two names and suddenly had a premonition that something was going to happen.

He let go of Gu's mother's hand and rushed out.

"Yulan, you said you want to break off the engagement with Yan'er?" As soon as Gu Yanli arrived at the door, he heard his father's voice.

break off an engagement? !

Shangguan Yulan came to cancel the engagement? !

A sudden pain crept into Gu Yanli's mind. He swayed in pain and nearly fell down. He managed to steady himself by holding onto a pillar.

"Yes, Uncle Gu. I'm sorry that Yulan cannot fulfill the engagement between me and Gu Yanli. This is the token that Uncle Gu gave to my father that day. Yulan is hereby returning it. Please also, Uncle Gu, cancel the marriage certificate."

"...Your grandfather took the initiative to ask my Gu family for your engagement with Yan'er. Even if he wanted to cancel the engagement, it should have been your grandfather who came in person. Now you come here alone with a token of love. Isn't that a bit impolite?"

"If you really don't like Yan'er, we can sit down and have a good talk in a few days. Uncle Gu will definitely not force you to do anything."

"I'm sorry, Uncle Gu. I didn't consider the etiquette very well. But you know my grandfather is in poor health, and my father is also very busy. I have also invited my master and the elders of the Wanyao Sect to come. Naturally, the marriage will be cancelled today."

"Shangguan Yulan!" Gu Yanli gritted his teeth, holding on to the pillar and slowly stepped into the conference room.

In addition to Gu's father, there were several guest elders of the Gu family and even a few business partners in the hall.

Shangguan Yulan actually completely disregarded his Gu family's reputation and came to him to cancel the engagement in front of so many people.

"Puff!" Gu Yanli couldn't catch his breath and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Yan'er! What's wrong with you?"

Seeing his son like this, Father Gu ran over from his seat without caring about being angry anymore.

"Dad, I'm fine." Gu Yanli wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. He turned and looked at Shangguan Yulan who was standing in the main hall. The hatred in his eyes seemed real.

"Shangguan Yulan, you brought your master and the elders of the Wanyao Sect here to force my Gu family to cancel the engagement, relying on the support of the immortals, right?"

"Gu Yanli, I am not this......"

"That's enough." Shangguan Yulan's master suddenly spoke in a cold voice. "Yulan, what's there to explain to these mortals? He's just a kid who just condensed his spirit veins, and he's also a top-grade yellow rank. He's not worthy of you."

"Boy, no matter what the reason, the marriage is cancelled today. Here are two bottles of first-grade superior Qi Gathering Pills. They are my Wanyao Sect's compensation to you."

"Haha." Gu Yanli sneered, raised his hand and knocked over the two jade bottles that flew in front of him. "I don't want them."

After saying that, Gu Yanli quickly walked to the table, waved his hand, wrote the two words "Divorce" in large letters, and pressed his fingerprints on the bloodstain.

"Shangguan Yulan, don't think that you are so great just because you are affiliated with the Wanyao Sect or have some Xuan-level upper-grade talent. Let me tell you, today you are not here to break off the engagement with my Gu family, but I, Gu Yanli, look down on you, Shangguan Yulan."

As the paper that Gu Yanli threw out fell to the ground, the two big words "Divorce" were clearly written on it.

"Boy!"

The elder behind Shangguan Yulan spoke first, and with a loud shout, a sense of pressure descended upon Gu Yanli.

"Shangguan Yulan!" Gu Yanli took two steps forward despite the pressure, pointed his finger at her, and said with a sharp gaze, "Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west. Don't look down on the young and poor!"

As the voice fell, a breath burst out from Gu Yanli's body, and the surrounding space became distorted because of this breath. The scene in front of him began to fall off piece by piece like wall paint, revealing a dark space.

“Hey, now that I’m doing it again, I always feel like something is missing. It’s boring.” Gu Yanli shook his head and sighed.

"You! When did you wake up!" The ethereal voices rang out all around, like the roar of an evil spirit, hoarse and creepy.

"I woke up a long time ago. I just thought this illusion was great, so I wanted to cooperate with you to continue acting. I didn't expect the scene to be like this. But it ends here. I will return all the humiliation suffered by the Gu family to the Shangguan family one day, but now... Brother Chu and Senior Sister have been waiting outside for too long, so..."

Gu Yanli said, raising his hand and waving it, the black space began to break apart. "You should go now. I hope to see you next time. You must do something fun next time~"

The teasing tone completely aroused the anger of the inner demon, but it was unable to do anything and could only rage helplessly: "Ah!!!! How dare you look down on me!!!! Ahhhhhh!! Just wait! I will be back!!!"

The sound gradually faded away, Gu Yanli chuckled and slowly closed his eyes.

At the same time, everyone saw the black air dissipating from Gu Yanli's body, and then a momentum stronger than before suddenly burst out, and the rich spiritual energy was madly absorbed into Gu Yanli's body.

This phenomenon lasted for more than ten minutes before gradually weakening.

Gu Yanli's cultivation level also directly broke through to the late stage of foundation building, and soared all the way, eventually stabilizing at the great perfection of the late stage of foundation building, and was only one step away from the Jindan stage.

"Success!" Chu Xingchuan laughed and slapped Xiao Yizi on the shoulder, feeling more excited than his own breakthrough.

"Be gentle, Senior Brother Chu! You're going to break my shoulder!" Xiao Yizi dodged his clutches by tilting his body, and raised his hand to rub his aching shoulder.

"Ah, sorry, sorry, Junior Brother Xiao, I lost my composure a little, haha."

"I kept you waiting."

Gu Yanli stood up and performed a cleansing spell on himself. Because of the breakthrough, the effect of the Shape-shifting Grass had disappeared. At this moment, there was a gentle smile on his handsome face.

"It's okay. Congratulations to Junior Brother Gu on your breakthrough. I'll ask Junior Brother Xiao to prepare something delicious to celebrate tonight."

After Su Zi finished speaking, he patted Xiao Yizi's other intact shoulder.

"Thank you, Senior Sister Su, for your advice this time." Gu Yanli bowed to Su Zi as a junior. If it weren't for Su Zi's advice, Gu Yanli didn't know when he would be able to break through. This time, he not only broke through the bottleneck of his cultivation, but also overcame his inner demons.

When he stood up, he had no idea that breaking off the engagement had become a demon in his heart.

Su Zi quickly waved her hands and shook her head, obviously not wanting to mention the thing that had caused her social death.

"Brother Gu has just overcome his inner demons. Let's quickly go into the city and find a place to stay while you consolidate your strength."

Chu Xingchuan stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder. This seemed to be a habit of his.

Su Zi quickly asked A Wu to pick another shape-shifting grass for Gu Yanli, and kindly told him not to forget to disguise himself.

The seven people then left the flying boat and headed towards Tianyuan City.
