Chapter 98 Parental Love
Gu Quan was caught off guard by Gu Rong's action, his hands raised high, unsure of where to put them.
Even Sun Yan'er was somewhat dumbfounded.
It's worth noting that both father and son are rather arrogant and usually dislike each other. Why are they suddenly being so sentimental?
Even if they almost died, there's no need for this, right?
"Tsk, that's so cheesy."
Seeing this, Gu Xuan felt something was strange, so he immediately left and returned to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to cultivate.
He still doesn't know how to face these so-called parents.
And through the experiment, he finally understood.
If they are things that appear to be one, then using the Rat Talisman can indeed revive them together. However, it is estimated that due to the side effects, the revived people or things will form a kind of conjoined twins-like existence.
Gu Xuan kept his new discovery in mind, and then quietly returned to the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.
He put Gu Rong and Gu Quan out of his mind, wanting to use his own affairs to diminish his feelings for them.
Upon arriving at the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, Gu Xuan walked to the Dew of Longing and gently pulled it out.
Before obtaining this Douluo Continent version of the Immortal Herb Manual, he truly did not know how to use the Dew of Longing.
But now he knows that he can just swallow and refine it directly.
Of the three treasures of essence, energy, and spirit, Gu Xuan's strongest element at this moment is essence, which is the body's energy and blood.
With the blessing of five top-grade soul bones, Gu Xuan's physical strength reached the level of a Soul Douluo.
His soul power purity reached the level of a Soul Saint, but his spiritual power was only at the level of a Soul Emperor.
The mutual checks and balances among these three factors meant that Gu Xuan could only exert the combat power of a Soul Saint.
As the saying goes, you should make up for what you lack. Since his mental strength is a weakness, he should turn to improving his mental strength.
Gu Xuan tilted his head back and swallowed the Autumn Water Dew, then sat cross-legged on the spot and began to refine the medicinal power of the Autumn Water Dew.
The longing dew, having lost its moisture, withered instantly, turning into a seed and sinking back into the ground.
The power of the longing gaze began to gather and circulate within Gu Xuan's body, then gradually surged towards his head and eyes.
As a magical herb specializing in spiritual cultivation, the effect of the "Looking Through Autumn Water Dew" on soul power can only be described as negligible.
This is why the "Wang Chuan Qiu Shui Lu" (望穿秋水露) is considered a versatile and effective herb.
Although head spirit bones can enhance a spirit master's spiritual power, the increase is not actually that significant.
The head bone is actually more like a defensive bunker.
It can resist the pressure of external spiritual power, increase the absorption period of the soul ring, and also condense spiritual power to form a powerful spiritual attack. However, there are very few things that can truly enhance the origin of spiritual power.
Under the influence of the "Dew of Longing," Gu Xuan's spiritual cultivation began to slowly and steadily improve.
Above the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, Gu Rong and Gu Quan, the couple, finally completed their initial communication.
The Gu Quan couple never imagined that their parents had been dead for more than six years.
And their children's talents were so terrifying, even the magic of the spells was so great, that they could actually revive them!
"This is...this is amazing!"
Gu Quan stared at Gu Rong in disbelief, feeling as if Xi Juan were listening to a myth.
But looking at his wife's clasped hands, he couldn't help but believe it a little.
"Father, you've really gone through a lot. Xuan'er must have troubled you a lot over the years."
Sun Yan'er looked at Gu Rong with some guilt. Gu Xuan's current achievements are partly due to his talent, but Gu Rong's efforts should not be ignored.
She also wanted to get closer to Gu Xuan, but from Gu Xuan's behavior just now, she understood that the child did not approve of them.
Indeed, they had never spent time together, and Gu Xuan had such a cold personality; they also hadn't given Gu Xuan enough parental love.
How could Gu Xuan possibly accept these two incompetent parents?
Moreover, the fact that this child has developed such a cold and indifferent demeanor suggests that he has not been happy over the years.
"Why!"
Gu Rong sighed and said that he really felt guilty about taking care of him. Although he had provided Gu Xuan with enough material support, he was not really a qualified grandfather in the past.
Then, Gu Rong nervously recounted Gu Xuan's growth and changes over the years.
At the same time, he kept watching his son and daughter-in-law's expressions, being extremely careful, afraid that they would be angry because of the mess he had made.
As he expected, Gu Quan and Sun Yan'er's expressions were indeed not good. They showed both resentment towards Gu Rong's muddle-headedness and fury at Ning Fengzhi for protecting Ning Rongrong.
Especially Gu Quan, who was originally a very sinister being, was now like a demon crawling out of hell in his rage.
"Ning Fengzhi, how dare you bully me like this!"
Gu Quan was like a raging wild beast.
Your daughter can't endure hardship, but my son can suffer injustice?
Did he risk his life for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School just to gain Ning Fengzhi's favoritism?
Even Sun Yan'er's ever-kind face was frighteningly cold at this moment.
Ning Fengzhi's actions were truly disheartening to her.
Looking at Gu Rong with resentful eyes, he thought, "Even though they are dead, how can you, as their grandfather, let your grandson suffer such injustice?"
"Before, whenever I saw Xuan'er, I would think of you all, so I subconsciously wanted to run away. I never expected it would lead to this situation."
Gu Rong looked like a child who had made a mistake, dejected and meek, lacking any of the aura of a titled Douluo powerhouse.
"But now I know my mistake and have taken Xuan'er away from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. I swear I will never let Xuan'er suffer any more grievances in this lifetime."
Gu Rong felt ashamed under the reproachful gaze of her son and daughter-in-law, and then quickly made various vows and promises.
Originally, Gu Rong only wanted to leave the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School for a while, after all, he still had feelings for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
However, under the influence of Gu Quan and Sun Yan'er, his dislike for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was amplified once again.
Moreover, in order to quell their anger, my previously wavering heart finally settled down.
Seeing that Gu Rong did not make the wrong choice this time, Gu Quan and Sun Yan'er's anger did indeed subside somewhat.
The three of them chatted as the sun set.
But it was mostly Gu Rong talking about Gu Xuan's various excellences, Gu Quan occasionally laughed heartily with great pride, and Sun Yan'er also had a smile in her eyes, full of maternal love.
However, his gaze would occasionally pierce through the layers of mist, as if he could see the ancient pavilion below through the mist.
The three chatted until midnight, during which Gu Rong learned the specific details of Gu Quan and the others' deaths.
As they had guessed, the sudden retreat of the Clear Sky Sect meant that the two groups that went to provide support directly faced all the wrath of the Spirit Hall.
Gu Rong expressed his extreme anger and vowed that one day he would make the Clear Sky Sect and the Spirit Hall pay a heavy price.
"Father, please take good care of Xuan'er. Please also tell him that his mother is sorry for not being there for him during his childhood."
Sun Yan'er looked up at the dazzling night sky, then suddenly smiled and looked at Gu Rong, saying...
Gu Quan, who had been smiling, also lost a smile. He turned to look at Gu Rong without saying a word, but his eyes said it all.
After learning that they were able to be resurrected because of the divine power of Gu Xuan's Rat Talisman, they did not intend to take up too much of the talisman's time.
This is ultimately Gu Xuan's power, and since they have been occupying it, no one knows whether it will affect Gu Xuan.
As parents, they already felt guilty for not being there for Gu Xuan during his childhood. If they were to have to rely on Gu Xuan's power to survive, that would be absolutely unacceptable to them.
This is how parental love should be.
Gu Rong's lips trembled slightly. Although she knew this moment would eventually come, she didn't expect it to come so soon.
"I will bring it to him. You are all good children. I am sorry."
Gu Rong looked at the two of them and a hint of sadness flashed in his eyes, but he was not completely desperate.
After all, if he wanted to, he could bring the two of them back to life next year.
During this time, he tried to persuade Gu Xuan to make the family gathering as perfect as possible.
"It's alright, Father. None of this has anything to do with you. It's just a pity that I won't have the chance to hug Xuan'er this time."
Sun Yan'er smiled sweetly, then slammed her head down with a hint of regret, but raised it again the next second.
"Then, Father, goodbye."
Sun Yan'er looked at Gu Rong and interrupted him before he could make a promise.
What she hoped for was that Gu Xuan would truly acknowledge her as his mother, rather than agreeing only because of Gu Rong's advice.
After saying goodbye, Sun Yan'er used her soul power to pull the mysterious talisman inside her body outward.
As the rat talisman peeled away, the life force of the two also quickly disappeared, until finally they turned into wooden carvings once again.
However, both of them had a slight smile on their lips at this moment.
