Chapter 109: When I Become a Dou Di, My Descendants’ Bloodlines Will Be Top-Tier!
Chapter 109: When I Become a Dou Di, My Descendants’ Bloodlines Will Be Top-Tier!
In the clan, all decisions are made to ensure the longevity of the Gu Clan's bloodline. If marriage with outsiders were allowed, the clan's bloodline would inevitably be diluted, weakening over time. From this perspective, Gu Fei, as a member of the Gu Clan, can understand the family's decision.
However, understanding doesn't mean he has to obey these rules.
At this moment, Gu Lie noticed Gu Fei's resolute gaze, still holding fast to his previous decision. The words on his lips changed.
"But as long as you're happy, your grandfather will support you!" Gu Lie sighed, deeply caring for Gu Fei, knowing how he was hurt by Xun'er a year ago and how he had just managed to move on from the shadows.
"Grandfather, you should also know that Xiao Yi Xian has the Woeful Poison Body!"
"In the past, those with the Woeful Poison Body on the continent never became top-tier experts because they would eventually die young. But Xiao Yi Xian has completely resolved the dangers of her poison body. Her future achievements will be at least Dou Saint!"
Gu Fei's words stirred the hearts of everyone in the hall.
They had never seen someone fully control the Woeful Poison Body. That kind of physique, with its lack of bottlenecks in cultivation, was indeed terrifying.
"Moreover, even if Xiao Yi Xian were just an ordinary woman, as long as I've chosen her, she will become my wife..."
"As for the bloodline of our descendants, when I become a Dou Di, do you think there will be any need to worry?"
Gu Fei continued, his words filled with such heroic spirit that it shocked all the elders present.
If the Gu Clan produced a new Dou Di, all members of the Gu Clan would awaken their Dou Di bloodline once again. At that point, would there still be any concern about diluted bloodlines? Not at all!
Bold words can give strength to one's spirit, but the strength of the spirit cannot change the reality of the situation.
"If you become a Dou Di, everything will naturally be fine, but achieving that is easier said than done."
"Since the fall of the last Dou Di, there hasn't been another Dou Di in the Dou Qi continent for ten thousand years."
"The clan leader couldn't do it, nor could that ancient genius from the Xiao Clan." "What advantage do you have over them that makes you dare to speak so boldly about becoming a Dou Di?"
Some of the oldest elders in the clan had personally witnessed that era.
Because of this, they understood just how difficult it was to become a Dou Di.
Although Gu Fei had shown remarkable talent, he wasn't superior to that genius from the Xiao Clan, so why should he be able to accomplish what others could not?
Gu Fei understood that the elder was referring to Xiao Xuan, the leader of the Xiao Clan from a thousand years ago, who was a supreme genius. He had reached half a step into Godhood (Ban Di), yet had failed to break through to Dou Di even with the full support of his clan. So, it was normal for the clan to question Gu Fei's bold claim.
"Elder, as people say, 'The waves of the Yangtze River push forward one after another, with each wave stronger than the last!""
"Just because the previous generation couldn't accomplish something doesn't mean the younger generation can't!"
"If the elders don't believe in me, time will prove everything. In the future, the name Gu Fei will be inscribed among the Dou Di!"
"I, Gu Fei, will bring earth-shattering change to this world!"
Gu Fei looked directly at the elder who had doubted him, his tone firm and powerful, radiating the aura of a chosen one.
This aura deeply moved Gu Lie, who cheered loudly for his grandson!
"Well said!"
"As expected of my grandson! A man must have grand ambitions to soar to the skies! Who says my grandson can't become a Dou Di? Your grandfather believes in you!"
Gu Lie's face was full of smiles; this grandson of his was truly to his liking.
Although he knew that becoming a Dou Di was extremely difficult, almost impossible, Gu Fei's grand ambition was indeed gratifying.
Gu Fei's ambitious demeanor even gave Gu Lie an illusion, as if Gu Fei had already stepped into the realm of Dou Di and was bringing a new era of prosperity to the Gu Clan!
With Gu Lie openly supporting Gu Fei, the others had no more to say and fell silent.
"Go ahead, if there's any opposition from the clan, your grandfather will hold them off for now..."
Gu Lie gave Gu Fei one last piece of reassurance.
Gu Fei gave Gu Lie a grateful look. With his grandfather's position in the clan, he wouldn't face any trouble for a while.
...
After discussing about Xiao Yi Xian, the elders brought up Gu Fei's recent travels and experiences.
But Gu Fei had come to visit Gu Lie with a purpose. Once the serious matters were over, his mind was elsewhere, and after a few casual responses, he finally managed to escape.
After leaving the hall, Gu Fei returned to his residence.
"I'm back."
Gu Fei landed in front of the bamboo house, softly announcing his return as he opened the door, only to see Xiao Yi Xian's pale face.
"What's wrong? Did the Woeful Poison Body act up again?"
Gu Fei quickly flashed to Xiao Yi Xian's side, checking her condition.
Aside from some disruption in her heart meridian, there was no sign of the Woeful Poison
Body flaring up.
"Gu Fei, your ex-wife was here earlier..."
Zi Yan candidly informed Gu Fei.
"My ex-wife... Xun'er came here?" Upon hearing this, Gu Fei frowned.
He hadn't expected her to shamelessly come and disturb Xiao Yi Xian.
"What did she say?" Gu Fei asked.
Zi Yan and Qing Lin quickly recounted the events.
"She's already divorced, so what does she want now?" Gu Fei was a bit angry. He couldn't understand Xun'er's actions.
He had firmly told her multiple times that they were divorced, that there were no feelings
left, and that he wanted no further involvement with her.
Yet, she kept coming back, and this time she had even been rude to Xiao Yi Xian.
When he was attentive, she was indifferent; now that he had let go, she clung on shamelessly.
Moreover, she still had that 'Brother Xiao Yan' out there.
The thought of Xun'er's behavior made Gu Fei feel disgusted.
"What's going on with you and your ex-wife?" Zi Yan asked curiously.
Gu Fei then explained, "Xiao Yi Xian, that woman earlier was indeed my ex-wife, but we have
no ties anymore..."
"Gu Fei, you don't need to explain... I believe you!"
Xiao Yi Xian noticed the expression on Gu Fei's face and adjusted her emotions, nodding
slightly.
When Gu Fei spoke, he looked at her with deep affection, a look that was natural and genuine,
not at all forced.
It was this sincere emotion that made Xiao Yi Xian believe Gu Fei unconditionally.
Zi Yan looked at the two of them, her eyes sparkling with curiosity and amusement, as if
enjoying a show.
At that moment, a voice suddenly echoed in Zi Yan and Qing Lin's minds.
"Come out, don't spoil the moment." It was Venerable Tian Huo's voice.
Zi Yan and Qing Lin were inexperienced, but Yao Huo was well-versed in such matters. He reminded the two to leave the room quickly. Although confused, Zi Yan and Qing Lin quietly
left the room.
Now, with only Gu Fei and Xiao Yi Xian in the room, the two naturally embraced each other. Their bodies gradually merged, finding the perfect remedy in one another.
