Chapter 103: Chapter 103: Absorbing The Dark Fire Mystic Seed

For the past month, his heart was filled with anxiety.

When he came out of Beast Tamer Island, Si Kai waited for Gu Jin for a long time, however even then he didn’t see her.

Just like that a month passed and just when he started to think of a way to exit the space, Gu Jin appeared.

Gu Jin pulled away and asked,

"Did you have your lunch?"

Even though Gu Jin had stored food, Si Kai didn’t know cooking so Gu Jin was worried.

Si Kai shook his head with a pitiful expression.

Gu Jin hurriedly cooked some food for him and after ensuring that Si Kai was full, she handed him the 8 One-Eye Leopard core.

She had bought it earlier but because of the chaos, Gu Jin forgot to give it to Si Kai.

Si Kai was thrilled and hurriedly took the 8 One-Eye Leopard core with a huge smile, but his tongue remained poisonous as he said in a sweet tone,

"Sister if you give me so much resources I will end up liking you! It would then be difficult for me to sell you."

Gu Jin rolled her eyes and flicked Si Kai’s forehead as she said with a smug face,

"You? You will sell me? You don’t even reach my waist properly and now you are claiming that you will sell me out? Hahaha! So cute!"

Si Kai touched his forehead and commented,

"Sister you may be tall now but in the future I will be much taller than you!"

Gu Jin chuckled and said,

"Go and cultivate."

Si Kai snorted and muttered,

"Just you wait!"

Once Si Kai left, Gu Jin’s smile vanished.

She sat on the ground and gazed at the beautiful galaxy.

Her heart felt a bit empty for some reason.

Gu Jin closed her eyes and lay on the grass for the next 1 hour.

Her mind flashed with those moments when she struggled to break free from those chains, yet she wasn’t able to break away.

Or to be precise the fear that she would not be able to die, made her breathing fasten a bit.

Even her heart rate fastened.

After a long time, when her heart rate turned normal, Gu Jin exited the space with a calm expression.

No one could tell from Gu Jin’s expression that just a few minutes before she was unwell.

Gu Jin thought about her store.

Should she contact Song Hancheng?

But then again, once she started looking after her store she won’t be able to absorb the Mystic Seed.

Gu Jin thought for a long time and finally concluded.

Since she was resting which is a free time for her, it would be better if she absorbed the Mystic Seed first and then contacted Song Hancheng.

A knock on the door brought Gu Jin out of her thought and she opened the door.

Outside one of the servants was standing with a bowed head and the moment the door was opened, she said,

"Ma’am please come out for lunch."

Gu Jin nodded and followed her.

When she reached the dining table she paused a bit.

Long Yifan was sitting on the head chair. His attention was on the phone and he seemed to be focused on some important matter.

What was that again?

Hmm...the time when men look handsome the most is when they are focused.

True!

Long Yifan truly was the most handsome man Gu Jin had ever seen but for some reason, she couldn’t help but remember the scene where Long Yifan cared for his sister...

He looked so broken yet Gu Jin felt her heart beating fast.

How couldn’t she?

To think that he loves his sister to the point that he would cry...how could she not love such a man?

Gu Jin knew from first glance that Long Yifan was an arrogant person. Yet such an arrogant person was much better than those so-called gentlemen persons.

At least he would apologize sincerely if he committed some mistake.

So was Long Yifan truly an arrogant person? Nope.

That was the conclusion Gu Jin reached.

Such guy...

Even though Gu Jin knew it was wrong she couldn’t stop herself from admiring him even more.

"Are you going to stand there for the rest of the lunch?" Long Yifan asked without lifting his head.

Gu Jin cleared her throat and all those embarrassing thoughts in her mind vanished.

She walked toward one of the chairs and sat down.

The two had their lunch in silence however, Long Yifan was surprised to see Gu Jin’s dining manners.

Elegant and sophisticated.

How could anyone say that Gu Jin was an orphan considering how beautifully she was eating?

Gu Jin didn’t know that Long Yifan was accessing her, she was currently busy in her thought process.

Once she was finished with her dinner she asked,

"Who was responsible for my kidnapping."

Long Yifan wiped his mouth and said,

"I have dealt with them, you don’t need to worry."

Long Yifan thought that Gu Jin would protest, however, he heard her say,

"Okay."

That is it?

Does she not want to take revenge for herself?

Gu Jin sensed Long Yifan’s gaze and touched her face subconsciously,

"Is there something on my face ?"

It was then that Long Yifan realized that he had been staring at Gu Jin’s face for a long time, he coughed and asked,

"Don’t you a want revenge?"

"No." Gu Jin said calmly.

Long Yifan frowned if he hadn’t seen Gu Jin killing someone before he would have thought that she was a saint type of person. But the problem was...he had seen her killing.

Gu Jin left after saying,

"I will stay in my room for the next 5 days, please don’t disturb me."

Long Yifan subconsciously asked,

"Food..."

"No need I have taken fasting pills." Gu Jin lied.

Long Yifan could only nod and see as Gu Jin left.

So for the next 5 days, Gu Jin stayed in her space and absorbed the Mystic Seed.

As compared to the Plant Mystic Seed, the Dark Fire Mytsic Seed was much more difficult to absorb and use.

At last, when she was done, Gu Jin ate some food, and slept for a long time, before getting out of the space.

Gu Jin wanted to test her strength but more than that she had questions.

For example, how she can cross primary rank even though she didn’t absorb a Solar Vein?

Anyways. Her 100 million was saved and Gu Jin could not be any happier!

Gu Jin was celebrating in her heart when she heard a knock on her door and when she opened the door, she saw a servant who was looking a bit panicked.

"Miss, could you please come out, there are some guests who have come to meet you."

"Meet me?" Gu Jin was confused but she still followed seeing the panic on the servant’s face.

Before she could even reach the living room she heard Old Wu’s threatening voice,

"So you indeed have her?"

Bang.

The sound of something crashing sounded and Gu Jin was surprised.

Then she heard Long Yifan’s cold voice,

"You are wild Old man."

"Shut up! And hand her over to us!" Old Xiang’s voice sounded.

Gu Jin hurriedly entered the living room and coughed to get everyone’s attention.

"Who is coughing? Can’t you go outside..." Before Old Fan could finish his words, Old Xiang hit him in the head and interrupted him,

"Shut up."

Old Wu, Old Xiang, and Old Fan looked at Gu Jin and hurriedly made their way to her.

After checking her from left to right, Old Fan asked angrily,

"Where were you? Do you know how worried we were?"

Old Xiang asked in a cautious tone,

"Did this devil kidnap you?"

Old Wu patted Gu Jin’s hair and asked,

"Child, are you alright?"

Gu Jin bit her lips to control the sadness rising in her heart.

She couldn’t help but remember Old Mu, the grandfather of her previous life.

If he was here, he would have cared for her like these elders of the Alchemy tower too.

But what made her surprised was how these elders found her location.

"Jin why aren’t you saying anything? Did this bastard do something..." Old Xiang asked in a cautious tone.

Old Wu and Old Fan looked at Long Yifan with a dark look. Their aura transformed too and turned fierce.

It was as if, if Gu Jin nodded then Old Fan and Old Wu would cast their magic spell at once!

Gu Jin shook her head,

"Nothing happened to me! And he is my savior, not enemy."

She clarified at once.

But what surprised Gu Jin was how the very next second Old Wu, Old Fan, and Old Xiang attacked Long Yifan while saying,

"You bastard! Are you controlling her with some psychic magic?"

"You dog! Using what did you threaten her that she isn’t even ready to tell her grievance?"

"Kill him!"

Gu Jin: "..." What is happening?
