After the master-acceptance ceremony ended, people from other sects gradually left the Lingxi Sacred Land, and the once-bustling Lingxi Sacred Land returned to tranquility. Gu Qingqing's life also returned to calm. Every day, if not cultivating, she would spar with Yun Ran or take a stroll through the market.
Zhuo Tingqiu did not leave with the people from Qiuyang Palace but stayed in the Lingxi Sacred Land, preparing to go on an adventure with Gu Qingqing later.
Jun Wu also stayed behind, having decided firmly to linger by Gu Qingqing's side.
Wen Guiyun had already heard about Jun Wu's intentions from Yue Zhao and the others. He hinted to Jun Yutian more than once to take Jun Wu away, but was blocked each time, making Wen Guiyun harbor some dislike towards Jun Wu.
On this day, while Gu Qingqing was sparring with Yun Ran, she suddenly received a message from Wen Guiyun, requesting that they gather at the Lingxi Hall. She quickly tidied up and headed to Lingxi Hall.
