Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun watched Zhao Jinxiang nervously. They knew the Marrow Cleansing Pill was extremely potent, and improper handling could be dangerous. However, they also trusted Zhao Jinxiang's abilities and believed he could control the power.
At this moment, the light on Gu Nianqing's body suddenly flickered. Gu Nanxun seemed to have a premonition of something. He gently approached Gu Nianqing and picked her up. However, for some reason, this time there was no airflow to stop him.
Gu Nanxun carried Gu Nianqing to a chair to the side. Gu Nianqing sat quietly in the chair, her eyes fixed on Zhao Jinxiang without blinking.
At this point, Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun no longer felt that everything about Gu Nianqing was different because she had taken the Enlightenment Pill.
However, the situation was special at the time, and they didn't have time to think about it carefully, so they had to put the matter aside for the time being.
Time passed slowly, and the uncle's face became increasingly covered in sweat, his complexion constantly changing, clearly indicating that he was experiencing immense pain. But as time went on, his complexion gradually returned to normal, and his breathing became steady.
Finally, the uncle opened his eyes, a glint of light flashing in them. His body seemed to have become even more upright. The wrinkles on his face had disappeared, his skin had become smoother and firmer, and even his hair had become jet black and shiny, growing to his waist like Gu Nanxun's.
"Did it work? Why so quickly?" Lin Qing asked in confusion. He remembered that it took him and Nan Xun several days to take the Marrow Cleansing Pill, but why did his uncle only take a few hours?
Gu Nanxuan took a deep breath and then shook his head.
What's going on?
Zhao Jinxiang looked at Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun with a serious expression and asked.
Gu Nanxun and Lin Qing exchanged glances. After a long while, Gu Nanxun spoke up, "The pill that my uncle took is called the Marrow Cleansing Pill. It's the kind of pill that cultivators in mythology use to cleanse their marrow and refine their essence. Taking it can restore the body to its best state and also cure various stubborn ailments. Qingqing and I found it by chance in a cave. There were three pills in total. Qingqing and I each took one, and my uncle took the last one."
"Then what is the cultivation technique in my mind?"
After hearing Gu Nanxun's explanation, Zhao Jinxiang nodded and then asked another question.
"A cultivation technique in my mind? What is that?"
Gu Nanxun looked puzzled when he heard his uncle's question.
"Yes, I just felt a power in my body. As I was carefully sensing that power, a cultivation technique suddenly appeared in my mind. So I followed the guidance of the technique to guide that power, and after I absorbed that power, I woke up."
Zhao Jinxiang then explained.
Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun were even more puzzled upon hearing this. They hadn't encountered any cultivation techniques during their marrow cleansing, but that made sense. The reason their uncle's marrow cleansing took so long was probably because they didn't have any cultivation techniques to guide their power during the cleansing.
After thinking about this, the two couldn't help but look at Gu Nianqing, who was sitting in the chair.
Gu Nianqing sat quietly in the chair, his eyes clear and deep, as if he could see through everything. He looked at Zhao Jinxiang's changes, the corners of his mouth slightly turned up, and suddenly he revealed an innocent smile.
"Nianqing, did you give this cultivation technique to your uncle?" Lin Qing asked softly.
Gu Nanxun pondered for a moment, then frowned and said to Gu Nianqing with a serious expression, "Nianqing, I think we need to have a serious talk. What do you think?"
Looking at their expressions, Zhao Jinxiang smiled and said, "No matter what, this is a good thing. This technique feels very powerful; I can sense its extraordinary nature."
Lin Qing nodded: "Uncle, don't rush to cultivate. Let's hear what Nianqing has to say."
At this moment, Gu Nianqing suddenly jumped off the chair, ran to Zhao Jinxiang's side, and threw herself into his arms.
Before Zhao Jinxiang could think any further, he had already pulled Gu Nianqing onto his lap.
Gu Nianqing found a comfortable spot on Zhao Jinxiang's lap, sat down, and then looked up at Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun with a serious expression.
"Mom and Dad, I can't say too much to you. All I can tell you is that I have memories of my past life. My past life was your past life before that. You were my mom and dad."
"What about your uncle?"
When Lin Qing heard Gu Nianqing say that they were Gu Nianqing's parents in their previous life, she breathed a sigh of relief. But then she remembered how Gu Nianqing treated her uncle differently, so she hurriedly asked again.
"Uncle?"
Gu Nianqing suddenly smiled, then reached out and hugged Zhao Jinxiang's neck, then pressed her face against Zhao Jinxiang's neck and said, "My uncle is the one who raised me in my past life, and he is also my father."
“Nianqing, you should call him Uncle. I don’t understand what you mean. Didn’t you say that in your previous life, Nanxun and I were your parents? Why is Uncle the one who raised you? Didn’t Nanxun and I raise you?”
Lin Qing corrected Gu Nianqing when she heard Gu Nianqing also address her uncle as "little uncle".
“My father is so young, why do you call him Uncle? I won’t call him that, he’s too old.”
After hearing Lin Qing's words, Gu Nianqing said with dissatisfaction, and then explained, "You're right. You and Dad didn't raise me. It was my father and father who raised me from childhood. If my father and father weren't destined not to have children, I would actually prefer to be reborn as my father and father's child."
Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun exchanged a glance upon hearing this, and then Gu Nanxun asked with a serious expression, "Why? Why didn't we raise you? Did we abandon you?"
Lin Qing looked at Gu Nianqing with a pained expression. She felt extremely guilty thinking about how she had abandoned her own child in her previous life. She couldn't forgive herself for that behavior.
At this moment, Zhao Jinxiang also looked at the child in his arms with a complicated expression. Was this really the child he raised in his previous life? Although he had no memory of it, he did have a strange sense of closeness to this child, and what the child said was also true; he could not possibly have his own child.
Gu Nianqing shook her head: "You didn't abandon me. There are some special reasons for this, so it's not your fault. But it was indeed my father and father who raised me."
"Who is your father?" This was the second time Zhao Jinxiang had heard Gu Nianqing mention her father, and he asked Zhao Jinxiang with a nervous expression.
