"Tutu, this is my biggest secret, The Land of the Two Poles!" Gu Yelin, without a moment’s hesitation, revealed the secret that not even Old Master Gu was aware of to An Yiqing, "Similar to your ability to see through things, my special ability is connected to The Land of the Two Poles. Red represents yang, blue represents yin. I was born with the Two Poles Space, constantly tempered by The Land of Yin and Yang since childhood, where my soul and body have been trained for over twenty years. That’s why I was able to reach the State of Demigod at the age of twenty-eight."
An Yiqing, looking at the red and blue Tai Chi symbol in front of her, was extremely shocked. Ever since she had obtained the Ancient Space, she did wonder if there was a second person in this world with such a miracle. But she never imagined that person had been by her side all along! Two Poles Space, being nurtured for cultivation since birth, no wonder Ah Lin was so formidably powerful!
However, beyond the shock, An Yiqing felt more moved and heartbroken. Her Ah Lin trusted her so much to tell her such an important secret without any reservations. How much love did it take to entrust one’s life !
"Ah Lin, did you suffer a lot when you were a child?" Thinking of the little Ah Lin who couldn’t even talk yet was constantly tormented by the Two Poles Space, An Yiqing felt her heart tear with pain.
"Tutu, I have the strength to protect you, to protect our family, I am willing to do everything." Gu Yelin’s gaze, filled with indulgence and deep affection, almost melted An Yiqing.
She struggled to sniffle back her emotions, suppressing the moved and sour feeling in her heart. Her little head rubbed vigorously against Gu Yiling’s chest a few times, playing coy for a while, before continuing to discuss serious matters.
"Ah Lin, do you intend for me to enhance my strength here?"
"No," Gu Yelin shook his head, "The Land of the Two Poles is too dangerous for you at the moment. When you reach the Mid-Level of the Innate Realm, I’ll bring you here to cultivate."
"So how should I break through the human body’s limits right now?" An Yiqing was somewhat discouraged, feeling her strength was so weak that she didn’t even qualify to train in The Land of the Two Poles!
"Don’t be disheartened, you have done very well." Gu Yelin hugged the girl and gently patted her back to comfort her, "Tutu, don’t put too much pressure on yourself, I want you to always be happy and joyful. I’ve got everything covered."
Feeling the reassuring presence of the man, An Yiqing’s feelings of defeat gradually subsided. She leaned into Gu Yelin’s embrace, listening to his strong and steady heartbeat, slowly closed her eyes, and curled her red lips in a smile.
After coming out of The Land of the Two Poles, Gu Yelin shared with An Yiqing his plan for her to break through the body’s limits.

One month’s time, An Yiqing’s injuries had completely healed, not even a bit of scar left on her skin, her complexion even more rosy than before she got injured. Henpecked husband Gu Yelin cooked a variety of dishes every day, An Yiqing exclaimed that her waist had grown a circle thicker.
This day, having not seen An Yiqing for a full month, Ruan Xue and Gu Tingting could no longer hold back and rushed to the villa in a fluster.
"Qingqing, Third Brother is too mean, I’ve wanted to see you for so long, but he wouldn’t let me..." Gu Tingting complained, lying on An Yiqing’s shoulder.
"Qingqing, how are you feeling now? You heartless girl, you called us only twice in such a long time, and you didn’t even tell us about your injury. If my brother had not mentioned it, I would still be kept in the dark." Ruan Xue, frowning angrily, glared at An Yiqing.
"Hmmph! Now she’s all day with General Gu, happy and content, how could she remember us mere mortals!" This voice, filled with grievance, belonged to Tang Lin. Today, when he found out that Ruan Xue and Gu Tingting were going to visit An Yiqing, he shamelessly tagged along.
