The Good-for-Nothing's Counterattack: Full-time Spiritual Master

After such a long wait and countless worries, the excitement in my heart when I saw Gu Li returning safely was like a flood that was difficult to suppress.

Gu Li looked at him with a smile and said, "What's wrong? It's been such a short time since we last met, and Grandpa doesn't recognize me anymore."

Gu Chentian was both angry and amused. He raised his hand and slapped her lightly on the head, saying, "Girl, do you know how worried grandpa is? Where have you been this year? You've made grandpa so anxious."

Gu Li covered his head and pretended to be wronged and said, "Grandpa, why did you hit me so hard?"

Gu Chentian looked at her and said, "It's good that you know it hurts. If it hurts, then you are not dreaming."

Gu Li pouted and said unhappily, "Why hit yourself then? Why are you hitting me?"

Gu Chentian glared at her: "How dare you object!"

Gu Li quickly waved his hands and said with a smile: "How dare I, Grandpa, calm down."

At this moment, Su Yiyun rushed over like a naughty child, pushed Gu Li away, and said with a smile: "Grandpa, did you miss me?"

Gu Li rolled his eyes at him and said unhappily, "That's my grandpa."

Su Yiyun waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "What's the difference between you and me?"

Gu Chentian looked at the energetic boy in front of him and couldn't help but reach out and touch his head. He smiled and said, "You have grown taller again. You must have gotten into a lot of trouble this year, right?"

Su Yiyun chuckled, scratched his head and said, "How can that be possible? I'm very obedient."

Mu Yunxi took light steps, walked forward obediently, and said softly, "Hello, Grandpa."

Gu Chentian looked at Mu Yunxi with loving eyes and said, "Girl Xi has become more beautiful again. Did you suffer any hardship along the way?"

Mu Yunxi shook her head and said, "No, Grandpa, everyone takes good care of me. I'm fine."

Lin Yuchen also walked forward with a bright smile on his face and said, "Grandpa, I miss you so much after not seeing you for so long."

Gu Chentian looked at him, his eyes full of relief, and said, "Grandpa misses you too."

Xi Zihan stepped forward and said, "Hello, Grandpa."

Gu Chentian looked at him carefully and said, "Hey, Han has lost a lot of weight."

Feng Wuhen also stepped forward, bowed and said, "Hello, Grandpa."

Gu Chentian said with concern: "Someone, come and check if Grandpa is injured."

At this time, the Shadow Guards came forward in unison, half-knelt in salute, and said in unison: "Greetings, Master."

Gu Chentian hurriedly said, "Everyone, stand up. Why are you kneeling? You have been following Li Er all the way and it has been hard."

"Protecting the young master is our unshirkable responsibility." Gu Yi's expression was firm and his tone was powerful.

Gu Chentian had a gentle smile on his face. He raised his hand and gently patted Gu Yi's shoulder, his eyes full of recognition and trust.

At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps came closer and closer.

A group of people from Lingtian College came to the Gu family's compound in a mighty manner.

Mo Cangqiong walked over with brisk steps, leading the way, with a look of anxiety and concern on his face.

His eyes immediately fell on Gu Li and the others, and he was the first to speak: "Gu Li girl, you are finally back safely, we were so worried about you."

Elder Xi followed and frowned, saying unhappily, "You little guys disappeared for so long without a trace, and no news was spread out. We thought you all met with an accident and died outside."

When Su Yiyun heard this, he immediately became anxious and couldn't help but retorted: "Elder, what are you talking about? How can you curse us to death?"

Elder Xi glared at Su Yiyun and responded unhappily: "That's not your own problem. After such a long time, there is not even a letter. How can I not be worried?"

Gu Li frowned slightly, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and he looked at everyone and asked, "Why did you all suddenly come to the Gu family?"

Mo Cangqiong looked serious, with a hint of worry in his eyes, and said, "We heard that many powerful people suddenly appeared near the Gu family, and we thought they were going to invade the Gu family. Since you are not here, I will naturally protect the Gu family for you and not let anything happen to them."

Gu Li's heart tightened, and he asked, "What do those people mean? What's going on?"

Elder Xi sighed heavily and said slowly, "A few days ago, the situation on the entire continent suddenly changed. Many powerful people appeared out of nowhere. Their cultivation bases are all above the Venerable level. Moreover, they came with great momentum. In a short period of time, they have occupied half of the Southern Continent."

When Lin Yuchen heard this, his face instantly became nervous, and he hurriedly asked: "How are my parents? Are they injured?"

Mo Cangqiong hurriedly comforted them: "Don't worry, your parents are fine. They are all holding on in their respective territories. There is no danger for the time being."

Hearing this, Gu Li, Lin Yuchen and others couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. As long as their families were safe, that was all that mattered.

Gu Li narrowed his eyes slightly, with a hint of coldness in his eyes, and asked again: "Who are those people who suddenly appeared?"

Mo Cangqiong looked solemn, and slowly uttered four words: "A foreigner."

"Alien race?" Xi Zi Han's face was full of doubts, and he thought to himself, I have lived in this Lanfeng Continent for so long, why have I never heard of such a race?

Gu Chentian nodded slightly and explained with a serious look: "Well, in fact, there have always been humans, monsters and aliens in Lanfeng Continent. It's just that the aliens have been hiding for a long time and haven't appeared on the continent for a long time. I didn't expect them to suddenly appear some time ago and stir up such a big storm."

Feng Wuhen's eyes were firm and his tone was full of confidence as he said, "Leave these alien races to us. We will not let them do whatever they want on the continent."

Mo Cangqiong frowned slightly, looked at Feng Wuhen and the others, and asked with some concern: "What level of cultivation have you reached now? Are you confident enough to face those alien races?"

Gu Li raised his lips slightly, raised his eyebrows, and a sly look flashed in his eyes. He asked back, "What do you think will happen to our cultivation level if we all ascend?"

"You really have ascended!" Except for Gu Li and the Shadow Guards, everyone who heard this was instantly filled with surprise on their faces.

They never imagined that the people before them had successfully ascended to heaven and were able to return safely.

Mu Yunxi smiled and nodded, and said affirmatively: "Yes, we did ascend."

Mo Cangqiong shook his head slightly, the worry on his face did not diminish, and said: "Even if you ascend, your cultivation will still be suppressed to the peak of the Venerable Rank in Lanfeng Continent. And as far as we know, the number of the other side's peak Venerable Rank powerhouses is several times more than ours, which is not a small number."
