Chapter 35: Are You Trying to Send Me Away?
After parting ways with Yun Yun, Gu Fei's mind was solely focused on quickly meeting Xiao Yi Xian. He wondered how she was doing alone in the small valley.
Riding on the back of the Amethyst Winged Lion King, he sped towards the small valley where Xiao Yi Xian was.
"It seems I misunderstood him again!" Xun Er, who had witnessed Gu Fei and Yun Yun parting ways and heard their conversation, finally realized that she might have misjudged Gu Fei once more. The jealousy she had felt earlier completely dissipated, and she bit her lower lip.

She felt a bit guilty, wondering if she had gone too far earlier and considered catching up to Gu Fei to clarify things. But after hesitating for a moment, she decided against it. Xun Er knew that Gu Fei now greatly disliked her and didn't want to be around her.
After a long sigh, she finally watched as Gu Fei's figure disappeared from sight, like a shooting star in the distance, without moving a step.
"Forget it, I should find Brother Xiao Yan first. Who knows how he's doing on his own?" Ling Ying silently followed, and the two of them resumed searching for Xiao Yan in the mountains, without mentioning the earlier chaos again.
...
At this moment, in the small valley, Xiao Yi Xian had been waiting for Gu Fei for half a day. If it had been the past, she could have spent a long time alone in such an energy-rich and beautiful place. But now, waiting for Gu Fei, even just half a day, her mind was in turmoil.
She tended to overthink things.
As a few butterflies flitted by the window, Xiao Yi Xian rested her chin on her hand, watching them flit about. The sunlight slanted down, casting a shadow on her delicate face. The usual smile she had when facing Gu Fei was absent.
During the half-day of waiting in the small valley, her expression remained somewhat gloomy. As she tucked some loose strands of hair behind her small ear, she tried to focus on a medical book.
After a while, she leaned back in her chair and sighed. Xiao Yi Xian was somewhat of a pessimist, and being alone in this vast small valley, she couldn't help but think of negative things. She even considered the possibility that Gu Fei might have deceived her and would never return. If that happened, should she hate him?
Her thoughts were complex, and her delicate brows furrowed, giving her a fragile appearance.

As Gu Fei approached the valley, the system notified him of her emotions.
At that moment, the girl inside the house was still trying to read a book but soon noticed a sound of rushing wind.
Xiao Yi Xian feels surprise, Emotion Value +100
She looked up in surprise, only to see a massive, fierce magical beast before her. The beast was enormous, with a body about seven or eight meters long, covered in a layer of purple crystals. Under the sunlight, the crystals gleamed, reflecting dazzling light.
The beast had a ferocious lion head with blood-red eyes that emitted a strange purple glow. Its giant mouth was filled with sharp fangs. Atop its head was a spiral horn, half of which was fiery red, with wisps of purple flames swirling around its tip. Its huge body was accompanied by a pair of purple wings. When the wings flapped, purple flames spewed out, engulfing the sky.
The four thick legs, also covered in purple crystals, shook the void with each step, hinting at its unimaginable power.
The colossal beast stood in the air, its invisible pressure descending from the sky, causing Xiao Yi Xian's heart to tremble.

However, the beast didn't seem hostile. It slowly descended to the ground. When Xiao Yi Xian saw the familiar figure on the beast's back, her lips curled into a smile, her eyes narrowing with joy.

Lifting the hem of her long skirt, she hurriedly ran over, her silver bells ringing as the lively girl rushed toward Gu Fei.
Leaping off the back of the Amethyst Winged Lion King, Gu Fei said, "You've been waiting long, haven't you? I was in a hurry to get back to see you. This is the mount I've tamed. Were you scared by it?"
Gu Fei spoke to Xiao Yi Xian softly, his voice gentle.
"Mm!" Xiao Yi Xian nodded lightly, her face slightly red. Did Brother Gu Fei hurry back just to see me?
Xiao Yi Xian feels shy, Emotion Value +100
Gu Fei rubbed his nose. He had a lot to say to Xiao Yi Xian after not seeing her for half a day. The two of them stood beside the Amethyst Winged Lion King, chatting idly. The lion's large form conveniently provided them with shade from the sun.
"...This is a sixth-rank magical beast. If we need to go somewhere else in the future, it can carry us there!"
Xiao Yi Xian feels surprise, Emotion Value +100
"You tamed a sixth-rank magical beast?"
Xiao Yi Xian feels worry, Emotion Value +100
Her eyes filled with concern as she looked at Gu Fei. "The beast looks fierce. Did you get hurt?"
A simple question of concern made Gu Fei's heart skip a beat. Since becoming a Dou Ancestor, she was the first girl to ask if he had been hurt. Xun Er and Yun Yun knew he was strong but never asked if he could get hurt.
Gu Fei's smile grew even more tender as he patted the girl's head. "Of course not. How could I get hurt?"
The two of them continued to spend two more days in the small valley, enjoying the peaceful and carefree days. Gu Fei never mentioned leaving, but Xiao Yi Xian knew deep down that someone as exceptional and destined for greatness as Gu Fei wouldn't stay long in this secluded valley. Her heart couldn't help but feel anxious.
While Gu Fei was cultivating, the system kept notifying him of her emotions.

"This silly girl, what is she worrying about?" Gu Fei noticed the changes in her emotions.
Just as Gu Fei was about to speak, Xiao Yi Xian spoke first, "Brother Gu Fei, if you have other things to do, you don't have to worry about me. I can live well here by myself."
"Are you trying to send me away?" Gu Fei pretended to be upset.
Xiao Yi Xian feels flustered, Emotion Value +100
"N-no, not at all!" Xiao Yi Xian shook her head quickly. "I just think that this place isn't suitable for your training. The outside world is where you truly belong."
"Xiao Yi Xian, if I were to go elsewhere, would you be willing to come with me?" Gu Fei asked, his expression serious.
The air fell silent for a moment, and Gu Fei felt an unusual sense of nervousness.
"Mm!" Xiao Yi Xian almost immediately nodded in agreement without any hesitation.
