Chapter 107: The Current and Former Lovers Meet!
(TL/n: I know some of you guys have been eagerly waiting for this lol)
Before long, Gu Fei led everyone to the mountain peak where he used to reside. The peak was quite secluded, hidden deep within the clouds and mist. At the summit, the concentration of natural energy was almost ten times that of the outside world.
"Brother Gu Fei, is this entire mountain peak yours?" Zi Yan asked as she gazed around at the scenic view.
Zi Yan feels surprised. Emotion value +100
"This place is so beautiful! Unlike me, when I returned to my clan thinking I was a princess, they just gave me a tiny, shabby island to live on," Zi Yan sighed, recalling her previous experience.
"A shabby island?" Gu Fei smiled helplessly upon hearing this. If her clan members heard her say that, they'd probably be so furious they'd spit blood. However, the Ancient Void Dragon clan probably doesn't care much about scenic beauty.
"I live over there," Gu Fei pointed to a bamboo house on the steps not far away.
The bamboo house wasn't large, but it had enough rooms for the women and Yao Tian Huo to stay in, while the Lion King opened a cave nearby.
"Haha, following the master was the best decision I've ever made in my life…" The Lion King was extremely excited to be in such a place. Even if he didn't encounter any other fortuitous events in the future, he was confident he could cultivate to the seventh rank here.
Yao Tian Huo didn't mind; after all, his old friends had long passed away. Now that he was resurrected and following Gu Fei, it wasn't a bad choice. Moreover, he got along well with Qing Lin, so they often had things to talk about.
"Remember, it's our clan's rule that outsiders cannot interact with the Gu clan's common folk. Do not venture out of the Gu Sacred Mountain Range on your own…" After settling everyone in, Gu Fei gave them a few instructions and then prepared to leave.
Xiao Yi Xian, feeling uneasy in this unfamiliar place, quickly stood up and asked, "Where are you going?"
Gu Fei turned back, looking at Xiao Yi Xian with a doting expression. "I've been away from the Gu Realm for a long time. Now that I'm back, I must pay a visit to the clan elders- it's a necessary formality…"
"Don't worry, this is the Gu Realm. There aren't many who would dare cause trouble for me, Gu Fei."
Since Gu Fei needed to meet the elders, Xiao Yi Xian couldn't stop him and reluctantly let him go.
What he said was true—there weren't many in the Gu Realm who would dare mess with him. However, the one person who would and could cause trouble was already in the Gu Realm, and she was on her way there.
Gu Fei had just left when Xun'er arrived at the mountain peak.
Yao Tian Huo was the first to sense someone approaching and immediately went out to investigate.
"The Gu clan truly produces cultivation geniuses—this girl is so young and yet already a Dou Emperor!" Yao Tian Huo couldn't help but sigh in admiration when he saw Xun'er, feeling a bit envious.
"What brings you here, young lady?" Since this was someone else's territory, Yao Tian Huo spoke very politely.
Upon hearing this, Xun'er merely glanced at him without responding. Her gaze remained fixed on the bamboo house.
After Yao Tian Huo appeared, Zi Yan, Xiao Yi Xian, and Qing Lin also realized someone had arrived and walked out of the bamboo house.
Xun'er sized up the three women, her gaze finally settling on Xiao Yi Xian.
"Is this the woman Gu Fei has chosen?"
Standing together, Xiao Yi Xian, Qing Lin, and Zi Yan caught Xun'er's attention, but it was clear that Xiao Yi Xian was the one she was looking for. The other two seemed too young.
Xun'er's gaze swept over Xiao Yi Xian like a scanner, as if she wanted to take in every detail of her.
Xiao Yi Xian's beauty was not ordinary; she had a slender, graceful figure and an ethereal aura, which made Xun'er feel somewhat threatened. After all, the only area where she had an advantage over Xiao Yi Xian was in cultivation level.
Despite feeling threatened, Xun'er didn't show it. Instead, she smiled disdainfully.
"Who is she?" Xiao Yi Xian felt the difference in Xun'er from other women. Other women admired Gu Fei, but when they saw her with him, most looked at her with envy or jealousy. This woman, however, was full of hostility.
Judging by Xun'er's gaze, Xiao Yi Xian's sixth sense told her that this person probably had a deep relationship with Gu Fei.
"What brings you here, young lady?" Xiao Yi Xian asked.
"Can't I come to see Brother Gu Fei? We've known each other since childhood, we were childhood sweethearts…" Xun'er deliberately emphasized her ambiguous relationship with Gu Fei, but she didn't mention their marriage and divorce because it wasn't something to brag about. She had come purely to provoke Xiao Yi Xian!
"Oh, so you're a friend of Brother Gu Fei. Please, come inside," Xiao Yi Xian relaxed a bit, thinking Xun'er was just a childhood friend of Gu Fei's. After all, what boy doesn't have a childhood sweetheart? But Xun'er's next words made her feel a sense of dread.
"I won't go inside. Brother Gu Fei left something in my room before he went on this training journey, and I'm here to return it to him!" Xun'er said this deliberately, with a hint of provocation in her eyes.
"Brother Gu Fei left something in her room? On her bed?" Hearing this, Xiao Yi Xian's heart began to race. Xun'er's words carried a lot of implications.
Gu Fei had been in this woman's room and even left something on her bed?
What could he have left that required her to return it in person?
Were they alone in that room? Did they do something, like she and Gu Fei had…?
Xiao Yi Xian couldn't help but let her thoughts wander.
Her concern for Gu Fei made her breathing rapid, and her face paled.
Qing Lin, seeing this, quickly grabbed her hand, but being young, she didn't understand the hidden meaning behind Xun'er's words and didn't know how to comfort Xiao Yi Xian.
Seeing Xiao Yi Xian's sorrowful expression, a smug smile appeared on Xun'er's face.
'Gu Fei, the woman you chose seems easy to tease!' Xun'er thought, feeling a sense of satisfaction.
