Phew...

Gu Qing woke up from her dream, perspiring profusely. Thinking about the results of yesterday's spirit root test, she was still in disbelief. She had been excited for a very long time. She had been waiting for the day of the fourteen year old test to come, but why did the test result reveal that she did not have a spirit root?

Without spiritual roots, she would be fourteen years old. This meant that she would be given to other cultivators to use as a cauldron.

No! She must not become a cauldron! Once she became a cauldron, her entire life would be ruined.

Ever since the test yesterday, she had already made her decision. When she saw the dim light of dawn outside the window, she squinted her eyes and immediately got up from the bed.

In the bronze mirror, a beautiful woman with bright eyes and white teeth appeared, her skin as smooth as cream. If anyone else saw this, they would definitely be amazed. This unremarkable daughter of the Gu family was actually even more beautiful than the Gu family's most beautiful young miss.

A trace of determination appeared in her eyes, and she stretched out her hand to pull her hair back to cover her perfectly shaped bright eyes.

She had never revealed her true appearance in front of others, but was waiting for the day she tested for her spiritual roots at the age of 14. It was a pity that things were unpredictable, as reality was not as beautiful as she had imagined.

Fortunately, she was prepared in advance. Otherwise, even if she didn't have spiritual roots, she would have been sent to the Gu Clan cultivators at the first possible moment.

She had nothing to linger for in the Gu household and could not help but arouse suspicion. She didn't even dare to bring her clothes, only carrying some gold and silver items before she hurriedly left the courtyard. She had to leave the Gu household early in the morning.

"Miss!"

Gu Qing was slightly shocked, she turned his head and saw that it was only a servant of the Gu family, hence nodding his head.

He didn't know if the Gu family would still allow fourteen-year-old girls to freely enter and leave the house after the spiritual root test yesterday. If not, then that would be terrible!

"Tilt!"

Before long, another gentle male voice came from behind. Gu Qing's body abruptly stopped, and her eyes that was covered under her hair revealed a trace of caution.

After a long while, she forced herself to calm down and revealed a smile as she turned her head, "Big Brother Shen, why are you here?"

Shen Chang stared at her face that was covered almost entirely, "You want to leave?"

Gu Qing panicked a little in her heart, but pretended not to understand, and laughed: "Brother Shen, what are you talking about?"

Shen Chang was dressed in a dark green robe, he walked over slowly, "Qing Qing, even if you don't have spiritual roots, it doesn't matter, I will marry you." His tone was still as gentle as the wind, and his dark eyes seemed to be filled with an unrelenting tenderness.

If not for the fact that he met her and Gu Ya's secret meeting by chance two years ago, he might have truly been deceived by his deep love.

He suppressed the contempt in his heart and shyly said, "Big Brother Shen, I'm a piece of trash that isn't compatible with you."

"Only I, Shen Chang, know if I'm worthy enough. In a few days, I will head to the Xuanhua Sect to cultivate and wait for my return." He suddenly reached out and stroked her hair.

Gu Qing endured the disgust in her heart, forcing out a smile: "Brother Shen, there are still people around!"

Other than the Immortal that he had met a month ago, Shen Chang was the most outstanding man he had ever seen. Just from his appearance, he looked like a dragon and phoenix, elegant and refined, truly a rare young noble of the muddle-world, but Gu Qing was not easily deceived by his appearance.

Forget about Shen Chang and Gu Ya, just based on the fact that he had always covered up his appearance and the sense of existence he had, in the eyes of the Gu family's servants, she was probably just an ordinary lady with average looks and temperament. She didn't think that he had moved Shen Chang with his beauty and made him unable to marry without his.

There must be something wrong with this matter!
