Fake Husband of the Glamorous CEO-Chapter 509: Don’t you have any thoughts about me?
"Ruolin can find someone who can concoct Foundation Establishment Pills?"
In Jiang Ruolin’s ancestral home, Jiang Dad couldn’t believe what his wife had mentioned about their daughter’s boyfriend being able to concoct Foundation Establishment Pills. He outrightly said, "Don’t try to defend that lad. I’d rather believe he has a Spirit Root than believe he can concoct a Foundation Establishment Pill!"
Jiang Dad nervously spoke to his wife, "Wife, it’s not that I’m so heartless as to want to introduce Ruolin to someone from the Bai Family whom she dislikes. It’s just that our generation is already like this. Ruolin has such great talent; that’s the only thing the Bai Family sees value in. Otherwise, with our status, they would never allow a member of their direct lineage to marry a lower-class woman as his official wife."
"We’ve got the perfect timing and conditions here, and opportunities like this won’t come again. We can only do so much in our lifetimes; we are no longer able to help our daughter. So, please don’t complicate things further here."
Liu Mei said, "But our daughter is already living with the guy. What can you do about it? While the Bai Family has not yet decided, might as well reject them now. Otherwise, once it’s set, and they find out about our daughter’s pre-marriage relationship, we’ll not be able to bear their wrath."
"There’s more," Liu Mei added cheerfully. "Our daughter just called and said she has broken through to the Foundation Establishment Stage!"
"What did you say?" Jiang Dad was stunned. "She broke through?"
"Yes!" Liu Mei smiled and said, "She said it was her boyfriend who concocted the Foundation Establishment Pill that helped her break through."
Jiang Dad still had his doubts, but Liu Mei cut him off, "Are you about to suggest that our daughter is deceiving us? Do you really think that’s possible? With the little money she has, and her inability to earn Spirit Stones, she has no capacity to buy a Foundation Establishment Pill."
"Aren’t you the one who said that the man has no Spirit Root?" Jiang Dad asked in disbelief. "Then how can he concoct medicine? And such crucial elixirs as the Foundation Establishment Pill at that!"
Perhaps a Foundation Establishment Pill might seem insignificant in the high-level cultivation world.
But on Earth, it’s a vital elixir for a mortal to transform into a cultivator, allowing one to leave Earth and earn Spirit Stones working within the star system.
So, it has a significant market on Earth.
Liu Mei said, "I didn’t ask for details; even our daughter wasn’t clear. When I have the time, I’ll go and see for myself."
---
Shencheng.
Having broken through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, Jiang Ruolin joyfully flew in the sky, holding Gu Feng’s hand, and tossed aside her flying sword, able now to fly anytime and anywhere without needing Object Manipulation Flight.
"Whoo!"
Jiang Ruolin shouted loudly into the night sky.
Wanting to release this kind of joy.
Gu Feng, being pulled along behind her, carefully held her hand to prevent falling and seeing how happy Jiang Ruolin was, he asked, "Didn’t you say you wanted to visit the star system to see those stars? Want to go over using Transmission?"
Jiang Ruolin said awkwardly, "I’d like to, but I don’t have any Spirit Stones, and everything outside of Earth uses Spirit Stones."
Gu Feng produced a bag of Spirit Stones from his hand, "Is this enough?"
"Where did you get these from?" Jiang Ruolin asked, seeing the bag of faintly glowing Spirit Stones, though low-grade ones, yet more than she’d ever seen in her life.
Working in the National War once a year, she could only collect a few small pieces, and even those went to her parents to manage.
"Don’t worry about where I got them from; just take them and use them," Gu Feng could empathize with her lifelong desire to leave Earth and visit those celestial bodies in the universe.
This was the dream of every cultivator who advanced from the lower levels.
Nowadays, the star systems and the planets of the outer domain cultivators were no longer desolate.
Instead, they were heavenly worlds with mountains, waters, spirit, and misty celestial air.
Even on planets beyond the Sixth Layer Heaven, major sects and cities have gravity-defying palaces floating in the sky.
Earth’s mortals had only seen such scenes on television before, dreaming of becoming cultivators to visit high-tier planets.
Jiang Ruolin really wanted to go.
But she said, "Let’s wait a bit longer."
Gu Feng asked, "Wait for what?"
Jiang Ruolin looked at him, "Wait for you to also break through the Foundation Establishment Stage, then we can go together!"
Gu Feng smiled, "Won’t that take a long, long time?"
"No worries, we can first use these Foundation Establishment Pills to get some Spirit Cleansing Pills for you, then you can slowly cultivate. I’ll wait for you to break through the Foundation Establishment Stage, then we can go together."
Gu Feng smiled gently.
The led hand turned active.
Initially, Jiang Ruolin was flying with him, but now he took her hand and changed their positions, making it him leading Jiang Ruolin in flight.
Then, their flying speed increased dramatically.
Jiang Ruolin was dumbfounded.
Among cultivators, flying speed also indicated the gap in strength.
"You!" Jiang Ruolin was stunned, "How can you fly using Qi Manipulation without a Spirit Root?"
Her eyes widened, "You couldn’t be a high-level cultivator who descended from a higher realm, could you?"
Gu Feng smiled, "If I said yes, would you follow the principle you mentioned earlier and marry me?"
Jiang Ruolin responded with a beaming smile, "Then you’d still need to work hard. The strong person in my mind should at least be someone above the Ten Layers of Heaven!"
Afraid that Gu Feng might be disheartened, Jiang Ruolin encouraged him, "However, you are already much better than that scum from the Bai Family, not bad at all."
At that moment, she realized that Gu Feng seemed to be leading her toward the Cosmic Transmission company.
She panicked, "Where are you taking me?"
Gu Feng replied, "To the place you want to visit the most, the Star System!"
Jiang Ruolin quickly grabbed him, "Let’s not."
Gu Feng stopped, "What’s wrong?"
Jiang Ruolin explained, "My mom told me that female cultivators with low strength shouldn’t recklessly go to the star systems or outer domains, especially if they’re beautiful."
"Because many male cultivators would do anything to break through, they like to capture female cultivators to practice dual cultivation and extract Origin Yin, and I..."
At this point, Jiang Ruolin’s face turned bashful, "My Origin Yin is still intact... If there’s no family or husband to back me, those crazed cultivators will blatantly kidnap me."
Gu Feng reassured, "It’s fine, I’m here, they wouldn’t dare to grab you."
Jiang Ruolin shook her head vigorously, "Forget it, forget it, I was just speaking hypothetically. Let’s wait until I’m stronger before we go. If a high-tier cultivator targets me, it would only make things difficult for you. My ancestors were brought down because they offended a major family due to jealousy."
She didn’t want to imagine if something like that really happened; they would surely give Gu Feng a hard time.
Especially since Gu Feng wasn’t from a major family.
If a fight broke out, Gu Feng could fend off some loose cultivators, but if they encountered those star system or outer domain family forces, he might only get annihilated!
It’s not that Jiang Ruolin was being vain, but this truly was the awkward predicament of female cultivators in the Cultivation World.
Gu Feng saw that she seemed genuinely afraid and worried, unsure if she was really scared of such things happening outside or if she was just wary of him.
After all, he had now revealed that he was more powerful than Jiang Ruolin.
The two of them had no choice but to return to their residence.
Gu Feng thought this woman had started to guard against him, so he consciously moved outside the house.
Jiang Ruolin asked, "Where are you going?"
Gu Feng replied, "To find another place to stay."
Jiang Ruolin pointed to his room, puzzled, "Can’t you get used to this?"
Gu Feng shook his head, "Aren’t you afraid that I might..."
Jiang Ruolin interrupted, "If you really wanted to, there’s nothing I could do about it, I couldn’t beat you anyway. Besides, if you really had intentions, you could have forced me the past few days."
"..."
Gu Feng walked back into his room.
Jiang Ruolin also prepared to return to her room, but still feeling dejected, she asked Gu Feng, "Have you never had thoughts about me?"
Gu Feng stood by his room door, a bit slow to react, but blurted out honestly, "Yes."
Jiang Ruolin’s smile brightened, "Hold that thought, good night."
Then she closed her door, and went to bed.
