Chapter 212: The Wrath of the Hun Clan!
In this dimly lit space, black mist filled the sky, and the chill permeated every corner of the area.
Deep within this space stood a dark, ominous palace. At this moment, the palace was filled with more than a dozen shadowy figures, each exuding powerful auras. The weakest among them had already reached the Half-Saint level.
"Damn it, the Gu Clan has gone too far!"
"Our people who were sent to the Heavenly Tomb died, and while it could be attributed to their lack of strength, the Gu Clan dared to kill those who didn't even enter the tomb right in front of the other ancient clans!"
"Do they really think our Hun Clan is easy to bully?"
"I think the Gu Clan believes they're invincible and want to start a war!"
"If it's a war they want, then they'll get it! This time, we'll make them realize the might of our Hun Clan…"
The hall was filled with anger, with each Hun Clan powerhouse eager for war after hearing about how Gu Fei killed their representative.
"Everyone, calm down!"
At this moment, a young man entered, causing the crowd to fall silent. He appeared to be around thirty years old, with a youthful face devoid of any emotion, giving off a sense that his facial expressions were almost frozen. The most striking feature, however, was his eyes—pitch black without a hint of white, as if two black pearls were forcibly embedded in his eye sockets.
"The Young Master has arrived!"
Even some of the older Hun Clan powerhouses showed great respect toward this young man. He was none other than Hun Feng, the pride of the Hun Clan and their Young Master.
"Can't you see? The Gu Clan's actions seem deliberate!"
Hun Feng spoke calmly, causing many of the Hun Clan powerhouses to reconsider.
"What do you mean, Young Master?"
"Recently, the Gu Clan has been unusually attentive to our Hun Clan, as if they're investigating something. Also, the incident involving the Hall of Souls seems to be connected to the Gu Clan!" Hun Feng explained. "Because of this, the clan decided to postpone our plan to swallow the other ancient clans by a few years…"
"Are you suggesting we just endure this without doing anything?"
"If we do nothing, the other ancient clans will think we're cowards!"
"The death of Elder Hun Xian won't be forgotten!" Hun Feng's eyes flashed with cold intent. "We must make the Gu Clan pay dearly!"
"What's your plan, Young Master?"
"The culprit is Gu Fei, hailed as the greatest genius of the past thousand years. The Gu Clan would never hand him over!" Hun Feng said slowly. "We could send a few elders with Dou Saint strength to the Eastern Region and kill some of their people to teach them a lesson!"
"But the Eastern Region is the heartland of the Gu Clan. What if their powerhouses strike back?"
"Powerhouses above the Four-Star Dou Saint level are restricted by that damn clan treaty and can't act freely. If the Gu Clan breaks the rules first, then they can't blame us for doing the same!"
After setting their plan, three members of the Hun Clan departed from the Hun Realm. The strongest among them had reached the late stage of Four-Star Dou Saint, just within the limits of the clan treaty.
…
In the Void Space.
"This pill refinement took so long; Zi Yan must have unified the Dragon Tribe by now!"
Gu Fei stowed away the two Ninth-Tier Treasure Pills and shot off like a meteor toward the end of the void, as fast as lightning.
When Gu Fei returned to Dragon Island, the almost transformed island gave him a pleasant surprise. Majestic peaks rose from the ground, shrouded in clouds, with massive Ancient Void Dragons occasionally soaring past. The deep dragon roars echoed continuously across the island.
Now, Ancient Dragon Island was reformed by the unification of four major dragon islands, making it not only vast in size but also home to a large population of tribesmen- something that hadn't happened for thousands of years. Previously, the tribesmen were scattered across the four islands, rarely gathering in one place.
Gu Fei hovered in the sky, his soul sense sweeping over the island. He sensed more than ten powerhouses at the Dou Saint level. The island's defenses were also much stricter than before, with squads of dragon-winged guards patrolling in intersecting patterns.
"Who goes there?"
A dozen Dragon Island guards spotted Gu Fei and swiftly approached him. However, upon recognizing his identity, their wariness turned to respect. After saluting him from a distance, they dispersed.
Seeing this, Gu Fei smiled and moved into the island.
"Brother Gu Fei, you're finally back."
The sudden appearance startled Zi Yan, but she quickly recovered and greeted him with delight.
"In such a short time, Dragon Island has changed so much. You've proven to be quite capable as the Dragon Emperor…" Gu Fei smiled at Zi Yan, though he didn't mention his recent pill refinement. Normally, Zi Yan would pester him for the pills, but this time, the main ingredients were from the Dragon Tribe, so she wouldn't be taking them.
"Tsk!"
"You were gone for so long; I almost went looking for you!"
Zi Yan pouted. Despite her status as Dragon Emperor, she spoke to Gu Fei as casually as when she was a little girl. The difference was that her once cute and funny demeanor had matured into a playful beauty.
"Zi Yan, now that you're the Dragon Emperor, you should maintain the dignity of your position!" Gu Fei teased, knowing how hard she'd worked recently.
"What good is that dignity…"
Zi Yan waved her hand, as if being Dragon Emperor wasn't as enjoyable as she'd thought.
"What, you're not happy?"
"What's troubling you? Tell me."
Gu Fei pulled out a handful of candy pills.
"Though I'm the Dragon Emperor, managing the entire Dragon Tribe by myself is exhausting! It'd be great if I had a Dragon Queen to help me out!"
Zi Yan took the candy pills from Gu Fei, popped one in her mouth, and mumbled. Although her words seemed casual, her eyes kept sneaking glances at Gu Fei's expression.
"A Dragon Queen?"
"Your idea is too…"
Gu Fei laughed at her remark. Since when does a man become the Dragon Queen?
"I'm the Dragon Emperor, so my man naturally becomes the Dragon Queen!" Zi Yan retorted.
