Chapter 106: He Actually Brought a Woman Back!
Chapter 106: He Actually Brought a Woman Back!
At the gates of the Gu Sacred City, a hundred figures dressed in black armor stood tall, holding long spears. Their sharp and cold gazes continuously swept the surroundings, exuding a formidable aura.
"Elder Gu Qian, Young Master Gu Fei!"
As Gu Fei and Elder Gu Qian approached the city gates, the Black Submerged Army guards immediately showed deep respect on their faces.
"Is that Young Master Gu Fei's new girlfriend?"
"Young Master Gu Fei brought someone back; I wonder how Miss Xun'er will react?"
"Miss Xun'er is as beautiful as a goddess and is gentle and considerate. I can't understand why Young Master Gu Fei would break up with her and seek a new love."
"I think Young Master Gu Fei's new girlfriend is also as beautiful as a goddess, not inferior to Miss Xun'er at all..."
Along the way, many people commented on Xiao Yi Xian, discussing her appearance and speculating about her relationship with Gu Fei.
The noisy discussions around her made her feel uneasy, and she unconsciously lowered her head a bit.
Noticing her discomfort, Gu Fei gently wrapped his arm around her waist.
"Don't worry, I'm here," he whispered in her ear, his breath on her cheek bringing her some comfort.
As soon as they saw Gu Fei holding her, the surrounding voices of discussion instantly quieted down.
Seeing the numerous powerful figures around, Qing Lin and Lion King appeared a bit
restrained. Zi Yan, on the other hand, was more carefree, her eyes darting around curiously. "We're here..."
With Gu Fei leading the way, the group quickly reached the center of the Gu Sacred City. To their surprise, it wasn't a flat area but a serene lake.
"Do we go to the Gu Realm from here?" Yao Tian Huo asked, knowing a bit about the Gu Clan but not the details.
Just as Zi Yan was about to ask, the calm lake suddenly rippled, and a terrifying spatial force began to radiate outwards.
Zi Yan, being of the Ancient Void Dragon royal bloodline, was most sensitive to spatial fluctuations and could clearly sense the immense power of this spatial force.
As the spatial force continued to be released, a brilliant beam of light shot up into the sky, directly connecting with the energy shield of the Gu Sacred City.
*Rumble!*
A black spatial gate slowly rose from the lake, sending out solemn and majestic waves of power that made those with weaker cultivation feel uneasy.
"This gate connects to the Gu Realm. I'll take you inside," Elder Gu Qian said, leading the way through the spatial gate.
"Let's go in," Gu Fei said as he led Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin to the gate. Without hesitation, they stepped inside and found themselves in the Gu Realm.
...
"The energy here is so abundant! It's several times more concentrated than outside. Cultivating here must be incredibly fast!"
Upon entering the Gu Realm, everyone felt the rich energy in the air.
"No wonder these ancient clans produce so many talents; they have such a prime place for cultivation," Lion King couldn't help but sigh.
"The Gu Realm was created by a Dou Di and nourished by the Dou Saint powerhouses of our clan over countless years. It's a self-contained world. Though it's smaller than the Dou Qi Continent, its energy is far more abundant," Gu Fei explained to the group.
The Gu Clan's strength had been sustained for countless years due to their powerful foundation.
As they conversed, the sky gradually darkened, and faint thunder rumbled in the clouds above. Only then did they realize that a storm had unknowingly formed in the distance, heading in their direction.
Zi Yan squinted at the clouds and suddenly said, "There's something on those clouds!"
"Don't worry," Gu Fei reassured her, patting her head, "It's our Gu Clan's Space Shuttle Boat."
As the black clouds drew closer, a massive flying warship came into view.
The group couldn't help but marvel at the Gu Clan's grandeur.
"Even just for welcoming guests, they use such impressive ships. These alone could crush ninety percent of the forces on the Dou Qi Continent, right?"
"Let's board," Gu Fei said, leading Xiao Yi Xian onto the Space Shuttle Boat.
The warship was heavily guarded by the Black Submerged Army, each member holding a long spear, exuding an intimidating aura.
"We're heading to the Gu Sacred Mountain Range. Outside this mountain range, many Gu Clan descendants live. Try not to disturb their lives," Gu Fei explained.
"Gu Clan descendants? Are they Gu Clan members?" Zi Yan asked, confused.
"Not exactly. The Gu Clan descendants are the lowest tier of our clan, but also the most important. They were once the core of the Gu Clan, but as time passed and the clan continued to expand, the Dou Di bloodline in them became diluted, and their talents weren't as outstanding as before," Gu Fei explained.
"Of course, there are many of them, and mutations or awakenings occur from time to time. When someone with stronger bloodline power is discovered, they receive the clan's resources and officially become a Gu Clan member, earning the respect of many."
The group understood that the Gu Clan's talents were truly the best of the best, chosen from among countless people.
Ordinary people couldn't bring outsiders into the Gu Realm so easily.
Gu Fei's status afforded him this privilege, as evidenced by Elder Gu Qian's previous attitude.
As they approached the Gu Sacred Mountain Range, many people noticed them. "Brother Gu Fei, long time no see!" Gu Yunyou approached with a smile. She knew that Gu Fei had brought a woman back but hadn't given up hope.
In her view, having multiple wives wasn't an issue. Although Gu Fei had married the clan leader's daughter before, which might have prevented it, now that he and Xun'er had
divorced, that concern was gone.
"Brother Gu Fei is really popular!" Xiao Yi Xian noticed the attention Gu Fei was getting from the Gu Clan girls, feeling a bit pressured. She lowered her head and followed him closely. "Yunyou, long time no see... I have some things to attend to. Let's chat next time," Gu Fei replied indifferently to those greeting him and then took Xia Yi Xian's hand, leading her toward his own mountain.
Xiao Yi Xian felt warm inside, understanding his intention.
"Brother Gu Fei actually brought an outsider woman back... Now that he's divorced Xun'er, I..." Gu Yao, not far away, watched Gu Fei with a hint of excitement.
"Sigh, that girl Xun'er is so foolish. She lost such a good husband!" Gu Qing Yang, another Gu
Clan genius, sighed.
Although Gu Qing Yang was now a one-star Dou Venerate, he was seven or eight years older than Gu Fei, and the difference in their cultivation speeds was apparent.
"Big Brother Qing Yang, it looks lively over there. What's happening?" Xun'er arrived beside Gu Qing Yang. She had just completed the first stage of the Imperial Altar's Baptism, reaching the two-star Dou Emperor stage. With this breakthrough, Xun'er's confidence was at an all- time high, and she always had a confident smile on her face.
"Gu Fei has returned..." Gu Qing Yang answered directly.
"He's back?"
Hearing this, Xun'er's first thought was to see Gu Fei. Now, she wanted to show off her
cultivation talents in front of him.
"Then I'll go see him!"
Just as Xun'er was about to head over, Gu Qing Yang stopped her.
"Why? Can't I see him?"
"You can, but... Gu Fei didn't come back alone this time. He brought a woman with him."
"He brought a woman back?"
Xun'er froze at those words. She hadn't expected that Gu Fei would really bring an outsider woman back to the Gu Realm.
At that moment, Xun'er felt an urge to see what kind of woman Gu Fei had brought back.
