Gu Qin had an idea, but she needed the General to help. She couldn't leave Qin Xiansheng's side and couldn't return to summon Baihu. Looking at the black panther lying on the floor grooming itself, Gu Qin said, "Black Cat, I need your help. Can you go back and fetch the General for me?"

The black panther looked at her, stood up, nudged her hand with its head, and softly called out, then went out the door.

Gu Qin turned back and held Qin Xiansheng's hand, her brows furrowed with worry.

The world was vast and full of wonders. This gu poison was something Gu Qin hadn't anticipated. She wondered if they hadn't helped the Mu family and acted prematurely, they might not have found them in time. Because of this, the outcome had slightly deviated, and Qin Xiansheng still had a breath left. This might be their last chance, and it was precisely due to the foresight of her Heavenly Eye that they had this final opportunity.

Thus, she must find the true dragon vein and make sure Qin Xiansheng survives.

An hour later, both Black Cat and Baihu arrived. Seeing Qin Xiansheng lying on the bed, Baihu's black eyes instantly moistened. It tilted its head, seemingly asking what had happened.

Gu Qin explained the situation in a hoarse voice. The general roared and turned to rush out.

"Come back!" Gu Qin shouted. "You can't defeat him now. And without absolute certainty of killing him, if he returns, your family, Qin Xiansheng's sect, and friends will all be targeted for retaliation. I can't bear it, so we need a foolproof plan. Therefore, our current priority is not to seek him out, but to find a way to save Qin Xiansheng."

The general turned to look at her, his eyes filled with confusion, as if asking if Qin Xiansheng could be cured.

Gu Qin whispered, "Yes, I have an idea. You and I will go to a place. Black Cat will stay behind to guard your family. If we succeed, Qin Xiansheng might be saved."

The general nuzzled her hand.

Gu Qin quickly found a spot rich in spiritual energy and set up an array, ensuring common venomous snakes and beasts wouldn't approach. Actually, with the general guarding, she wasn't worried at all.

Of course, she didn't think a place rich in spiritual energy...

...would not suffice for her needs. She needed to find the true dragon vein, where the aura was unparalleled and could potentially save Qin Xiansheng. She had only a few days left before Wanshi Yan completed his preparations, and she needed to find the answer within that time.

Guang Bei's gaze fell on the yinshou (negative spirit beast), and she said with a smile, "Thank you very much. After this is over, I will tell you the location."

The yinshou was surprised, "You... You really found the location of the dragon vein?"

"How could that be..." Wan Shuyan was struck by lightning, his face filled with shock. But even if she had found the dragon vein, it wouldn't save Shu Shu. Shu Shu's body was just an ordinary person without any cultivation. Over the years, it was already against the natural order to keep her alive and preserve her appearance. Even if they found the dragon vein, it would not be able to repair her body.

Guang Bei turned around, "Wan Shuyan, today is your end." She had once regarded him as Qin Xian Sheng's junior brother and even considered him a friend, but now things had come to this.

Wan Shuyan sneered, "If you want to kill me, then kill me. Today, it is simply because my skills are inferior to yours." He no longer had the ability to resist. Whether it was Guang Bei, his senior brother, or that white tiger yinshou, their cultivation levels were all above his, leaving him powerless to resist.

Guang Bei's Liúguāng (a magical weapon) was aimed at Wan Shuyan's throat.

Seeing that he was about to stab him in the throat, the elevator door suddenly opened, and Ren Shushu walked out from inside. She shouted, "Don't..." She stumbled over and knelt down beside Qin Xiansheng, hugging his legs tightly as she cried, "Senior Brother, please, spare Second Brother. He did all these things for me. If I die, Second Brother will no longer do such things..."

"Don't you dare come out!" Wan Suyan roared. "Who let you come? Go away! Get out of here!" He couldn’t bear to watch her die now. If he died, at least she would still live for a few more months.

Ren Shushu shook her head. "It’s all my fault. If it weren’t for me, Senior Brother wouldn’t have made such mistakes. If I die, maybe you can turn over a new leaf..."

Gu Qin said coldly, "Even if you die, he must still die. All the sins he committed for you, do you really think they can be wiped clean just because you die? Have you not seen how he has hurt others for your sake? If you truly feel guilty, why don’t you end your own life? Or is it that you don’t want to die at all? You’d rather sacrifice other people’s lives for yours!"

"I... I..." Ren Shushu’s face turned deathly pale, unable to speak.

"Enough!" Wan Suyan shouted. "Why torment her?"

Piercing through Wan Suyan's throat, a ray of light stabbed him. Gu Qin said coldly, "Shut up! Take care of yourself first."

"Don't!" Ren Shushu screamed. "Miss Gu, please spare him. If I die, he won’t bother you anymore, won’t ask for your body, and won’t cause trouble for the Gu family."

The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.

But Gu Qin remained silent, as if she had no interest in further conversation. The ray of light pierced Wan Suyan’s throat, sending dense Yin energy into his body.

Blood gushed from Wan Suyan’s throat as he stared at Gu Qin with intense hatred, his gaze finally falling on Ren Shushu.

"Don’t, don’t..." Ren Shushu’s face was as pale as paper. She crawled towards Wan Suyan, trying to cover his wound, but the blood wouldn’t stop flowing. Due to the invasion of Yin energy, her body became unbearably cold, and her skin started to darken.

Cheng Yinxiang had already taken the children inside, leaving only Lu Qingrong at the door.

"Senior Brother, Senior Brother..." Ren Shushu cried pitifully, watching as Wan Suyan died before her eyes. Unable to bear the grief, she collapsed onto him.

Qin Xiansheng checked his breath. "He’s dead."

Ren Shushu, who was already in poor health, was almost exhausted. The sudden shock caused her to die suddenly.

Finally, it was over. Gu Qin looked at the two corpses on the ground, her lips pressed tight without a word.

Qin Xiansheng threw two fire talismans onto the bodies, which soon caught fire. He then muttered a spell to prevent the smell from spreading.

Wan Suyan’s body still contained a Yin beast. Without the container, the Yin beast could not survive. Furthermore, extracting the Yin beast from the body was extremely difficult. Qin Xiansheng had only managed to extract General due to a lucky find of the Dragon Stone.

The corpses burned quickly. With a wave of his hand, a gust of wind swept away everything, leaving nothing behind.

Everything was over.

"Qin Qin..." Cheng Yinxiang came out holding Lu Tang. As soon as she spoke, tears streamed down her face.

"Mama," Gu Qin said, feeling deeply pained. She took Lu Tang, who was chubby and very cute. Gu Qin kissed her cheek softly. "Does Tang Tang remember me?"

Three years ago, the little one didn’t remember anything. He shook his head and looked at Gu Qin several times before suddenly extending his chubby hands to hug her. "Are you my sister?"

"Yes, I am your sister." Gu Qin shed tears. After three years, she was finally reunited with her family. It was wonderful.

Several people entered the house. The dragon couldn’t enter but squeezed its huge head through the window.

Only Gu Qin and Qin Xiansheng could see the dragon.

Cheng Yinxiang asked her daughter where she had been for the past three years. Gu Qin briefly recounted what happened, naturally omitting the hardships she endured. During the first year of searching for the Dragon Vein, she barely ate or slept, often waking up abruptly from short naps due to her worries.

Fortunately, everything had passed, and everything was well.

Hearing there was something protecting them, Lu Qingrong looked around. Gu Qin smiled and said, "Uncle Lu, do you want to meet it?"

Lu Qingrong nodded. Gu Qin muttered a spell and waved her hand in front of him. He saw the dragon’s head blocking the window and was startled, even though he was prepared.

Gu Qin quickly said, "Uncle Lu, don’t worry. It’s fine."

The dragon’s head moved and asked Gu Qin, "Where is the Dragon Vein? I’ve been here for three years. Now that everything is resolved, I should leave."

Gu Qin went over and gently stroked the dragon’s head. "Thank you. I’ll tell you where the Dragon Vein is. I hope you achieve enlightenment soon."

After Gu Qin gave the specific coordinates, the dragon nodded and thanked her before leaving through the window. The young dragon without horns swam away in the clouds.

Lu Qingrong also approached the window and watched the legendary dragon swimming in the clouds, his awe uncontainable.

The family talked for a long time. Lu Qingrong shared the situation at home over the past three years and the people who helped the Gu family. Gu Qin felt touched. Her efforts were not in vain; those she had helped extended their support when the Gu family faced difficulties.

That evening, Cheng Yinxiang booked a banquet at a hotel. Gu Jia returned from work. Over the past three years, Gu Jia had worked hard in the company, and his fiancée Yi Xiaozhu had provided much assistance. Even when the Gu family nearly went bankrupt, she stayed by his side, comforting and caring for him.

Now that Gu Qin was back, the family was incredibly happy. They had dinner together and then rested. Qin Xiansheng stayed in Gu Qin’s room. After so many events, the family felt that it was enough that they were safe and sound. Since they were both back, it was time to consider getting married.

Yi Xiaozhu and Gu Jia had already registered their marriage. Due to the Gu family’s difficulties over the past three years, they hadn’t held a wedding ceremony. With Gu Qin and Qin Xiansheng safely back, they planned to hold the wedding.

Gu Qin and Qin Xiansheng lay in bed. Qin Xiansheng hugged her from behind and kissed her neck and back. After a while, he said hoarsely, "Qin Qin, thank you."

Gu Qin turned around and kissed his lips. "As long as Big Brother Qin is safe and sound."

Qin Xiansheng kissed her again. "Qin Qin, let’s get married."

Gu Qin nodded. "After Big Brother’s wedding, it will be ours. Big Brother mentioned that they might hold the wedding next month. We can set the date now. I’ll send out invitations to thank everyone."

"Good, I’ll go with you," Qin Xiansheng said.

Over the next month, they were quite busy. Gu Jia and Yi Xiaozhu’s wedding was scheduled for a month later, and theirs would be after spring.

During this period, apart from sending invitations, Gu Qin visited Mount Dai to thank the friends who had helped the Gu family. She played in Mount Dai for a few days, then returned to Beijing and thanked many people. Finally, she went to Mu Family.

This time, the Mu family had helped a lot, including Kong Xiaoyue, who had returned from abroad. She had changed significantly, losing the aggressive aura, appearing reborn, and becoming much gentler. She started calling Qin Xiansheng and Gu Qin "Big Brother Qin" and "Sister-in-law."

Knowing she had genuinely changed, both were pleased. Not only that, the Kong family and Mu Jingjuan were grateful to the two for helping Xiaoyue, who might have become someone else without their intervention.

Moreover, Kong Xiaoyue had met a boyfriend during her studies abroad, a Chinese student who had helped her a lot. It was because of him that she completely changed.

After Gu Jia’s wedding, Gu Qin and Qin Xiansheng didn’t have any urgent matters and traveled around the country. They also went to see the young dragon, which seemed deeply engrossed in cultivation and showed no reaction to the outside world. They didn’t disturb it and left.

Regarding cultivation, they didn’t plan to rush it. It was a necessity back then, but Gu Qin now intended to take it as it comes. Moreover, reaching the Great Void realm meant enduring a heavenly tribulation and ascending to immortality, leaving this world for another place. In truth, she had too many attachments: family, relatives, friends. She didn’t want to reach the Great Void realm now and would continue to cultivate without using the Dragon Vein, staying with her family until they grew old.

Over the next few months, Gu Qin and Qin Xiansheng traveled around the world. When they returned, the wedding date was less than half a month away.

Everything was arranged, and the hotel and custom-made wedding dress were ready. Gu Qin tried on the dress to check if any adjustments were needed.

In half a month, makeup artists arrived early in the morning to prepare Gu Qin. Once the makeup was done and she put on the pristine white wedding dress, she felt a sense of dizziness. Through her past and present life, she had found her true love and the most important family and friends. This was the perfect and complete ending.

After finishing the makeup, the artist left. Cheng Yinxiang entered, holding her daughter’s hand, with countless words unspoken, and finally kissed her forehead.

At ten o'clock, Qin Xiansheng came to pick her up. He carried Gu Qin to the car and arrived at the church. Under the witness of all relatives and friends, Baihu and Heibao stood guard on either side of the couple.

"Qin Xiansheng, do you take Gu Qin as your wife, to become one with her, to love her, comfort her, respect her, and protect her? Whether she is sick or healthy, rich or poor, will you remain faithful to her until the end of your life?"

"I do."

"Gu Qin, do you take Qin Xiansheng as your husband, to become one with him, to love him, comfort him, respect him, and protect him? Whether he is sick or healthy, rich or poor, will you remain faithful to him until the end of your life?"

"I do."

(The End)
