Above all spirits

Chapter 379 My name is Chen Yuan, your mentor

Yunyin was also moved by Bai Qing'er's understanding, and couldn't help but pick her up and nuzzle her face against hers. She said softly.

"He's nowhere near as capable as our Qing'er. He's just an old rascal."

"Qing'er is the most sensible."

"Ah, suddenly I really want a child too, so that it can keep you company along with Sister Xian'er's child."

Bai Qing'er's eyes lit up immediately. Wouldn't Gu Yun and Yun Yin's child be like an older sister to her? A strange feeling welled up in her heart, and she quickly said.

"really?"

"It seems that Sister Xian'er's child is a boy!"

"Then I want a younger sister too!"

"Cough cough!"

Gu Yun coughed heavily twice, finally able to interrupt the two's daydreams; if they continued, they'd probably have already come up with a name.

As a celestial demon who roamed the lower realms, he was now somewhat embarrassed and wanted to escape from this place.

Children like this.

If he were on Earth, he might have some thoughts.

However, due to the difference in race, Gu Yun was unsure whether he would still have this half-demon body. Moreover, he had many things to do and could not afford to take care of the child, especially after learning about the apocalypse. He was even less willing to let an innocent child be born.

He gestured to Chen Yuan with his eyes.

Make him do something.

Chen Yuan, on the other hand, kept his eyes fixed on Bai Qing'er, standing there watching her.

After seeing Gu Yun's gesture, he slowly extended a hand to Bai Qing'er, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes, but he smiled and spoke slowly.

"Nice to meet you, I..."

"His name is Chen Yuan."

"Your mentor."

Bai Qing'er, who was being held in Yun Yin's arms, bent down, shook hands with Chen Yuan, and smiled as well.

"Hello, my name is Bai Qing'er. I look forward to working with you in the future!"

The moment their hands clasped, a wisp of dark purple mist, unnoticed by anyone, shot out from Chen Yuan's palm, brushed against Bai Qing'er's arm, and finally settled on Bai Qing'er's hair ornament.

"Whether you remember or not, I will always protect you."

Chen Yuan's voice was deep and firm, as if a vow were etched into the air.

Bai Qing'er was a little confused, thinking that Chen Yuan, as her mentor, was protecting her, and replied softly.

"Thank you."

Gu Yun frowned slightly upon seeing this; he was not considered human.

With his abilities, he naturally noticed Chen Yuan's little trick. Although he was somewhat dissatisfied, he did not stop him. Chen Yuan was probably protecting Bai Qing'er in his own way.

It's just a bit ridiculous. The Heavenly Demon Palace is located at the very center of the entire Demon Realm, and very few people can come here. At the same time, almost all the Demon Kings have moved to nearby planets, which is what Gu Yun requested.

If even a place like this can't protect Bai Qing'er, what difference would it make if Chen Yuan were added to the mix?

Even if he is a reincarnated person, even if he possesses the will of an emperor, he is still too weak at this moment.

Compared to Xiao Li, whose foundation was not solid and who had just condensed the imperial will, he was slightly better.

But that's about it. At best, he can only defeat ordinary eighth-level, ninth-level, or even peak-level Saint Body cultivators. Chen Yuan can only run away.

Gu Yun glanced at Chen Yuan and transmitted his voice.

"Since you don't trust the protection of the Heavenly Demon Palace, I'll give you this chance."

"I'm giving you the chance to protect her, but if anything happens to her, I'll hold you responsible."

Chen Yuan's body trembled slightly, clearly Gu Yun had noticed his little action, but he didn't refute it at all, but nodded gently and replied firmly.

"I will do my utmost. In this life, I will not let anything happen to her again."

"It's good for you to know."

Gu Yun replied indifferently.

Yunyin pulled Qing'er away from Chen Yuan, then stared intently at him; a woman's intuition is always accurate in such situations.

"Little brat, you want to woo our Qing'er, don't you?"

"Don't think I didn't notice, you're not even fully grown yet, but you've already spouted a ton of cheesy pickup lines."

"Qing'er, don't let this kind of person fool you."

"Speaking of which, Qing'er, what type of girl do you like?"

...

Gu Yun turned and walked out of the hall, calling Xiao Li along with him. He left Chen Yuan alone to work things out with the others. To become Bai Qing'er's mentor, he needed to build good relationships with everyone around him, and that was something Gu Yun didn't need to worry about.

"Brother, what's the matter?"

Xiao Li followed Gu Yun's steps and said softly.

"what's up?"

"You're alright now, right?"

Xiao Li was stunned for a moment, not yet realizing what Gu Yun was trying to say.

"what?"

"Could it be that I skimmed too much profit and someone reported me?"

Gu Yun: ==

"Who asked you this?"

"Your Extreme Yang Emperor's Will has no side effects, right? Okay, then I'll prepare to return to the Upper Realm."

"He won't be back anytime soon."

"If anything goes wrong, you'll have to deal with it yourself."

Gu Yun looked annoyed. If even Emperor Xiao Li wasn't in a hurry, why was he rushing him?

He originally planned to go to the upper realm after finishing his business in the lower realm.

There are four things in the lower realm.

Finding Yunyin, restoring order to the Demon Realm, helping Xiao Li resolve his worries, and finally, the newly arrived Hundred Flowers Sect Master Hua Qiandao's plan to explore the ruins of the old Heavenly Court—but this seems to take a long time, and he's not in a rush. He'll wait until Hua Qiandao goes to the Upper Realm to improve his own strength first.

Gu Yun was confident that as soon as he returned to the Upper Realm, he would directly advance to the rank of Demon General.

Originally, I planned to wait until Yunyin's strength reached the pseudo-innate level before going together.

But if what Chen Yuan said is true, then there isn't much time left for me to develop.

Opportunities in the lower realms were of little use to him.

Go back and ask Chen Yuan if there's anything in the Upper Realm that can improve cultivation or strength.

After all, in later generations, the gap between the upper and lower realms is not so large. Although there is still suppression, it has weakened considerably. Chen Yuan should know quite a bit.

Xiao Li immediately became alert and looked at Gu Yun somewhat embarrassed.

"Want to want."

"There haven't been any unusual occurrences lately, so I almost forgot about it."

"Now that you've said that, I'm starting to feel uncomfortable. When are we leaving?"

Gu Yun rolled her eyes at Xiao Li and said in an unquestionable tone.

"We're leaving in three days, so hurry up and pack your things, and also do some mental preparation."

"why?"

"After all, I'm going to meet my future wife soon, so I naturally need to pay attention to my image and behavior."

"No way! Big brother, don't tease me. I heard that he's about to become a pseudo-innate being, just one opportunity away. Isn't my little seventh-level Saint Body just there to make up the numbers?"

"Besides, I'm just an extra for you, brother. Why would anyone even look at me? They'd be eyeing you, not you..."

"Hey! Big brother, don't go!"

"I was wrong, I was wrong, I'll get ready, I'll get ready, okay?!"
