Seeing Su Lie’s stunned expression, Gu Qingluan couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
“Master, you just tricked me, didn’t you?” Su Lie let out a sigh of relief.
“I didn’t trick you.”
Su Lie’s expression immediately froze. “You… you really have no plan?”
“There’s no need for a plan. If Gu Zhicheng hadn’t been so eager to consume the Universe Stabilizer, perhaps I would have been more cautious. But now, there’s nothing worth watching, let alone mentioning.”
Su Lie asked, “Is there anything I don’t know about? I witnessed those high-ranking experts who surrounded him crumbling like powerless infants in his grasp.”
“The Universe Stabilizer requires a calm and composed state of mind to have the best effect. Given Gu Zhicheng’s condition at that time, it’s clear that he couldn’t achieve that. The more his emotions fluctuate, the less effective the Universe Stabilizer becomes. Originally, it could have helped him stabilize his newly elevated levels, but now it’s impossible. Without this additional effect, his Saint Stage is unstable.”

Although he had reached the Saint Stage, there were times when he couldn’t fully exert his Saint Stage power, making him much weaker than other Saints.
Gu Qingluan, who hadn’t reached the Saint Stage yet, had the strength to fight against him.
As they conversed, Gu Qingluan’s smile suddenly grew strained.
“Be careful!”
Swish!
A sharp sword pierced through the back of the carriage.
Gu Qingluan held Feng Yuanxi tightly and evaded the attack.
Boom!
The carriage shattered into pieces.
Gu Qingluan and a few others were thrown out of the carriage.
Several forces of profound energy attacked from all directions.
“They are experts of the Heavenly Stage!” Su Lie exclaimed urgently.
Gu Qingluan’s slender hand fluttered, radiating a bright light that formed a barrier, protecting everyone in the middle.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The barrier flickered and shimmered as the intense light screen endured the assault.
Feng Yuanxi tightly grabbed her clothes, his gaze scanning the surroundings with icy coldness. Eight men in black attire descended from above, surging with profound energy, their hands swiftly swinging
as they relentlessly attacked the barrier. Liu Meng’s face turned pale. “Miss Gu, they must be after me! Hurry, take Xiaonan and leave!”
These people must be after the Universe Stabilizer. Its allure was too great for them to maintain their sanity.
Gu Qingluan shook her head. “You’re wrong. They’re here to take my life!”
Their malicious intent was evident, showing no mercy in their attacks. They didn’t seem interested in capturing anyone alive.
Eight high-ranking experts, the mastermind behind them didn’t hesitate to go all out.
After speaking, Gu Qingluan turned to Su Lie and said, “Protect Xiaonan!”
“Yes!” Su Lie wanted to pull the young master closer to himself.
Feng Yuanxi glanced coldly at him. “Don’t worry about me, help Mother!”
How could he push all the pressure onto Mother? He gathered his profound energy, aimed at one of the enemies, and struck!
A surge of purple light shot out like a pillar of water.
The black-clothed individual evaded in mid-air.
Boom!
The purple light struck the ground, creating a large crater.
Gu Qingluan was slightly surprised.
Has Xiaonan’s cultivation improved again?
As the thought crossed her mind, her attention was swiftly redirected by the enemy. Su Lie and Liu Meng were witnessing “Gu Xiaonan’s” attack for the first time, leaving them utterly astonished and speechless.
This child was so young, yet his strength was not inferior to theirs! They couldn’t let themselves be outdone, or they would have lost face!
The two of them rose up simultaneously, joining the battle.
The eight black-clad individuals, realizing they couldn’t break through the opponent’s protective barrier, exchanged glances and said, “Form the formation!”
The eight of them landed in eight different positions, swiftly forming hand seals.
Eight beams of light simultaneously shot towards Gu Qingluan and the others.
“Everyone, be careful! The protective barrier won’t hold much longer!”
Sensing the danger, Gu Qingluan alerted her comrades while also lifting her son into her arms.
With a loud boom, the barrier was shattered by the concentrated force.
Su Lie and Liu Meng were injured by the residual shockwave, while Gu Qingluan’s body emitted a faint glow, blocking the invading shockwave. However, she was still pushed back a few steps by the impact.
“Mother, are you okay?” Feng Yuanxi asked, his entire body stiff, afraid of becoming a burden to her..
