"We are wrong, young master!" Those young disciples quickly admitted their mistakes.

"Stop fighting! It's just a joke!" They shouted while lying on the ground.

Gu Li then calmly withdrew the heavy pressure that was as heavy as substance, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and smiled faintly: "Did I win?"

There was a hint of smugness in that smile, as well as the innate confidence of a young master.

"We won, young master is awesome!"

The disciples hurriedly responded loudly, and their faces were instantly filled with smiles again.

Gu Li looked at the smiling faces in front of her. She couldn't help but be infected by the sincere and somewhat childish expressions, and her face was naturally filled with smiles.

Gu Li restrained his smile a little, his expression became serious, and said: "Okay, you guys continue! I'm going to find grandpa first!"

After saying that, he stood up and prepared to leave.

"Goodbye, Young Master!" the disciples shouted in unison, their voices echoing in the open space, full of respect.

Gu Chentian was watching them quietly not far away. There was a kind smile on his weather-beaten face, but there was a hint of imperceptible emotion in his eyes.

Seeing Gu Li and others coming over, the smile on his face became more intense, as if he saw the star of hope for the family's future walking towards him step by step.

"Busy people, are you free to go home?" Gu Chentian joked with a smile, his voice filled with the intimacy and care that an elder has for the younger generation.

In fact, he knew very well that these children have grown up and have their own ambitions and pursuits.

Now they are going further and further away, just like an eagle spreading its wings and flying high. One day, they will leave the familiar Lanfeng Continent and venture into the vast world outside.

But he also understood that this was a good thing. It would always be good for the children's growth if they could go out and see more of the outside world.

Su Yiyun scratched his head, and said with a chuckle: "I'm done, I'm done, hehehe!"

There was a naive look on his face that made people laugh.

Gu Li walked forward, his expression slightly solemn, and said: "Grandpa, I want to tell you something!"

Gu Chentian was slightly startled, then asked with concern: "What?"

Gu Li looked around and lowered his voice and said, "Let's go back and talk about it. This matter is very important."

That serious look made Gu Chentian realize that this matter might be of great importance. He nodded immediately and quickly returned to the yard with a few people. He also specially sent someone to guard outside to prevent anyone from eavesdropping.

After entering the courtyard, Gu Li slowly said, "Don't arrange for disciples or anyone from the Gu family to go out for training during this period."

When Gu Chentian heard this, he frowned and asked in confusion, "What happened?"

Gu Li's face was solemn, and he told Gu Chentian all the secret things they had known during this period, especially the various situations regarding the demon clan.

As Gu Li spoke, Gu Chentian's expression became more and more ugly. His originally smiling face gradually became gloomy, and his eyes were filled with deep worry.

Gu Li said seriously, "We will try our best to find the Anling Crystal, but just in case, no one in the Gu family is allowed to go out for training. I don't want the Gu family to suffer any losses. I will be at home these few days. I will set up a defense formation to cover the Gu family, just in case."

Gu Chentian was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly and said, "Okay, there are still a few teams in Qianye Forest. I will send someone to call them back and they will stay in Lingtian City."

Having said that, he planned to order someone to do this.

Gu Chentian raised his head again, looked at Gu Li and the others tenderly, and said earnestly: "You don't have to work too hard. The Gu family is very strong now and will be your backing. You don't have to shoulder everything by yourself."

After hearing this, Gu Li and the others felt a surge of warmth in their hearts, and they all responded in unison, "I understand, Grandpa."

Gu Li turned to look at Su Yiyun and the others, and said seriously, "You guys too, I'll let Xiao Quezi take you home. You don't need to tell anyone about this. I've put the defense array on the array ball, you can take it back and activate it quietly."

Although they were asked to keep it secret, even if they didn't say it, there should be many people who knew about this matter, especially the families that existed at the same time as the four major academies.

After hearing this, several people nodded and responded in unison: "Okay."

After explaining everything, Gu Li and Mu Yunxi entered the mysterious Chaos Ring together.

The two of them were concentrating on setting up the necessary defensive formation.

Various lights flickered, spiritual energy overflowed, and the two of them looked extremely focused, meticulously fiddling with the complicated components of the formation.

The others were not idle either. Lin Yuchen sat cross-legged in the training room nearby with his eyes closed. With spiritual energy surrounding him, he was practicing hard, trying to improve his strength.

On the other side, Feng Wuhen was controlling the temperature in the alchemy room, refining various precious elixirs. From time to time, bursts of strange light came out of the alchemy furnace.

Su Yiyun was concentrating on making various magic weapons in the refining room. The sound of hammers hitting each other rang rhythmically and sparks flew everywhere.

Xi Zihan continued to draw various explosion runes.

three days later.

Gu Li carefully divided the prepared things into six portions in the yard.

After dividing the things, Xiao Quezi took Mu Yunxi and the others back home.

Gu Li stayed alone in the Gu family and began to cover the entire Gu family inside and out with formations.

She first buried a series of array bases containing powerful spiritual power around the Gu family, and then arranged complex runes at various key locations. Those runes flashed with mysterious light and echoed each other.

Then, she took out a lot of pills that she had made herself and placed them in a specific location in the attic. Those pills exuded a rich spiritual energy, as if adding a layer of protection to the entire Gu family.

She also carefully placed the bottles of containers storing pure spiritual energy in appropriate places.

She also pasted pieces of talisman paper with mysterious formations drawn on them in every corner of the Gu family, providing all-round protection for the entire family.

After everything about the Gu family's defense was prepared properly and ensured to be foolproof, Gu Li finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She gently brushed off the dust on her body and headed back to the academy.

Xiao Quezi was very fast. In just ten days, he brought Mu Yunxi and others back to the academy safely.

The academy was bustling with activity at this time, and many students were eagerly looking forward to the upcoming journey to the Tongtian Secret Realm.
