Gu Yuan stood up and walked to the training room inside the study, holding the brocade box tightly in his hand, feeling uneasy in his heart.

Now, success or failure depends on this!

If he succeeds, he can protect the Gu family for another two years, and Yue'er can breathe a sigh of relief and not have to force herself to grow.

And if it fails, the entire burden of the Gu family will fall on Yue'er's thin body. This is the last thing he wants to see!

Gu Cheng looked solemn, but he still didn't want to put too much pressure on his father.

He softened his expression slightly, returned to his usual gentle appearance, forced out a relaxed smile, and encouraged: "Father, just go ahead and do it! There are still me and Yue'er!"

"Grandpa, come on! You have to believe in yourself!" Gu Muyue knew the importance of the matter, but at the same time, she did not want Gu Yuan to be under too much pressure.

Zhaozhao also poked out her little head from Gu Muyue's arms, and gave Gu Yuan a "hmph oh oh oh".

Neither of the two people present could understand what it said. Gu Muyue could only act as a translator for it dutifully, "Zhao Zhao said, grandpa is the most powerful! Don't worry."

Gu Yuan and Gu Cheng naturally didn't believe that Zhao Zhen meant this. After all, they didn't think of Zhao Zhen as a contract beast at all. They naturally thought that these words were made up by Gu Muyue to comfort themselves.

Hearing that his master had conveyed his words completely, Zhaozhao was very happy, and couldn't help but give Gu Muyue a rainbow fart.

"嘤嘤嘤! 嘤嘤嘤嘤!" My sister is also the most powerful! I like my sister the most!

Seeing that Feixiao suddenly became excited, Gu Cheng was also attracted by this interesting kitten and asked with a smile: "What's wrong with it?"

Gu Muyue replied seriously without blushing or heartbeat: "Because I fully conveyed what it said to grandpa, so it is praising me now."

"Hahahaha! Thank you for your concern!" Gu Yuan reached out and touched Feixiao's head, feeling very fond of him in his heart.

In the past few days, his granddaughter was very busy and often disappeared. After knowing that Feixiao was his granddaughter's pet, Gu Yuan saw Feixiao as if he were seeing his granddaughter. He loved the house as much as he loved him, and couldn't help but want to be nicer to Feixiao.

In addition, Zhaozhao was very cute and adorable, which made it easy for her to capture Gu Yuan's heart.

Now that he was interrupted like this, Gu Yuan's heavy mood at the beginning disappeared instantly.

Due to the great power of the Broken Mirror Pill, and Gu Yuan himself has been stuck at the peak of the third level of the Spirit King for a long time, this time in order to break through the final bottleneck, he decided to retreat now!

Before the retreat, Gu Yuan and the two of them gave many instructions. After all, no one knew how long he would be in retreat this time. It could be a few days, a week, a month, or even longer.

The Gu family's current position is embarrassing, so they naturally have to be prepared for everything.

After all the explanations were completed, as the wooden door creaked shut, Gu Yuan also officially started his retreat practice.

Gu Muyue stroked Feizhen's fluffy hair, but looked straight at the closed door in front of her, feeling a little empty in her heart.

She wouldn't be able to see her grandpa for a long time, and she was a little uncomfortable with it.

Retreat is a very common thing among practitioners. If it is short, it will be about a month. If it is long, it may be a year or even several years.

The stronger your cultivation level, the longer your retreat time will be!

It is very common for some very powerful people to go into seclusion for decades or even hundreds of years. For them, seclusion is as simple as drinking water, and they disappear from the public eye at every turn.

Gu Cheng noticed Gu Muyue's subtle emotions and immediately understood her state of mind.

His big hand touched the back of Gu Muyue's head and rubbed it gently. Gu Cheng raised the corners of his mouth and said softly: "Yueer, don't worry. If nothing happens, my father will not be in seclusion for a long time."

Gu Cheng's words were not completely coaxing Gu Muyue, but that was the fact. Broken Mirror Pill is a pill specially designed to help practitioners make breakthroughs. Gu Yuan has never neglected his practice in the past few years. Even if there is no breakthrough, the spiritual power absorbed is still stored in his spiritual sea.

The Broken Mirror Pill is an opportunity for him to break through. He only needs to break a small opening, and then Gu Yuan's cultivation level can be successfully advanced!

Gu Muyue nodded. She naturally knew this truth. She had to believe that her grandfather could succeed!

Gu Cheng saw Gu Muyue coming out of her dull mood and wanted to use something to attract her attention. Suddenly he thought of the pile of gifts he had brought for her, and immediately said with great interest: "Father has something to do now. , then it’s time for Yue’er to do her own thing.”

"I have nothing to do." Gu Muyue looked at Gu Cheng doubtfully. She had squeezed herself too hard the past few days, so her plan for herself these days was to take a good rest.

"Why not?" Gu Cheng's expression suddenly fell, and he said a little sadly: "Don't Yue'er plan to open the gift that my uncle gave you?"

Seeing Gu Cheng's eyes becoming more and more disappointed, Gu Muyue immediately said, "Let's go, uncle! Let's go open the gifts together! You can just tell me your stories outside in the past few years."

Gu Cheng was immediately coaxed, and he naturally took Gu Muyue's little hand and strode towards the direction of Lanyue Pavilion, "Then what are you waiting for? Let's leave quickly."

Back at Lanyue Pavilion, Qiu Sang and Dong Kui had placed the boxes neatly in the middle of the yard.

Gu Muyue took a quick glance and saw that there were five whole boxes!

"Miss, you are back! Huh? Mr. Gu, why are you here too?" Dong Kui saw the two of them and immediately went to greet them.

"I'm here to open the gifts with Yue'er and tell a story by the way." Gu Cheng replied with a smile.

Qiu Sang and Dong Kui have long been used to it. In the past, whenever Mr. Gu came home, he would ask the eldest daughter to tell him stories about his travels, and he would not stop telling the eldest daughter until she fell asleep. I hope the eldest lady can persist a little longer this time.

"Sister Qiu, let's open the gift my uncle gave me together!" Gu Muyue walked to the box, suddenly curious about what kind of gift Gu Cheng would prepare for herself.

According to the fragments in his memory, most of the things Gu Cheng gave to the original owner were toys and jewelry, and I think they should be similar now.

But looking at the big box in front of her, Gu Muyue still had a strange feeling in her heart. This was her first time experiencing the process of opening a gift!

This feels very good!

"Miss, which box do you want to see first?" Qiu Sang walked over and looked at Gu Muyue with a smile.

"That's it!" Gu Muyue pointed to the box closest to her.

Gu Cheng happened to be right next to the box. When his niece said she wanted to see this, he raised his hand and easily opened the lid of the box.

Gu Muyue looked inside the box and saw that it was filled with silks and satins of beautiful colors and various patterns.

Even some of the fabrics were glowing with gleaming white light, and there were gold threads hidden inside. They were filled with fairy spirit, and you could tell at a glance that they were not ordinary.

"Uncle, why do you suddenly want to give me fabric?" Gu Muyue asked in confusion. This is the first time Gu Muyue has received such a gift.

Gu Cheng smiled a little sheepishly after hearing this and explained: "I thought that Yue'er had grown up now. They say that girls love beauty and like beautiful clothes and jewelry."

"But uncle, I have been traveling outside, and I don't know how tall Yue'er is now. Even if I want to buy you some beautiful skirts, I don't know what size to buy."
