Chapitre 105: Come Home with Me, Let’s Meet my Parents!
"Hehe, it's just that everyone in the clan were worried about you going out!"
The elder, whom Gu Fei referred to as Gu Qian, smiled and, in a flash, appeared directly in front of him.
"Thank you for your hard work during this time, Elder!"
Gu Fei respectfully greeted Gu Qian as a junior.
"It's nothing. At my age, even ten or twenty years wouldn't make much difference in my cultivation! But you, young man, are different! You're destined to become the pillar of our clan, and we can't afford to lose you!"
It was clear that he had high regard for Gu Fei and placed great expectations on him. This time, he had been assigned to stay hidden near Gu Fei, not only to protect him but also to observe and assess him. Throughout the journey, Gu Fei's various actions had greatly satisfied him. Though Gu Qian sometimes wondered how Gu Fei seemed to know things in advance, he ultimately attributed it to Gu Fei's meticulous nature and careful planning.
"It seems that even among those ancient clans, Gu Fei holds significant weight!"
After being rescued by Gu Fei, Cao Ying kept her eyes on him. The tenderness in her gaze turned to shock upon hearing the conversation between Gu Fei and Gu Qian. Although the Cao family wasn't a super clan, their connection with the Pill Tower gave them some insight into the continent's secrets. It was said that the ancient clans didn't live on the Dou Qi Continent but resided in independent spaces, each possessing powers capable of shaking the heavens and earth. Even top forces like the Pill Tower and Hall of Souls were no match for any of the ancient clans.
With this realization, a sense of loss flashed in Cao Ying's eyes. Gu Fei's brilliance was becoming blinding, so much so that it almost swallowed her up. Could someone like her ever hope to be with someone as talented and powerful as Gu Fei?

Hearing the continuous notifications in his mind, Gu Fei glanced at Cao Ying out of the corner of his eye.
"This little enchantress sure has a lot of changing emotions," Gu Fei thought to himself.
At that moment, another tear suddenly appeared in the sky above them. An old man stepped out of it- Xuan Kong Zi, who had arrived late.
"Greetings, Elder!"
Gu Qin Yang's presence made him tense up, and he quickly stepped forward to greet him.
"Mm!" Gu Qian nodded, saying, "From today's events, it's clear that the Pill Tower's defenses still need strengthening…"
"Senior, you are absolutely right… This incident was indeed the Pill Tower's oversight, allowing the Soul Hall's people to commit crimes within the city…" Xuan Kong Zi replied earnestly, not offering any rebuttal.
After saying this, Xuan Kongzi glanced at Gu Fei standing beside Gu Qian and couldn't help but marvel internally, "It seems that this young man is highly valued even among the ancient clans. In just two months, two Dou Saint experts have come to his aid!"
Not long after, Xiao Yi Xian, Yao Tian Huo, Qing Lin, and the Lion King also arrived at the scene.
"Gu Fei, when do you plan to return to the clan?" Gu Qian suddenly asked, echoing a question that Gu Xiong had asked before.
This time, Gu Fei had already made up his mind. The Soul Hall had just lost two Dou Venerates, and they wouldn't let this go easily. Knowing their methods, they would certainly investigate in secret, which would inevitably lead them to Gu Fei. If he stayed outside, who knows what crazy things the Hun Clan might do?
Therefore, Gu Fei decided to return to the clan for a while. He was determined to take Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin back with him, but as for Zi Yan…
"Zi Yan, what are your plans? Do you want me to take you back to Ancient Dragon Island?" Gu Fei asked, looking at Zi Yan.
Zi Yan shook her head without hesitation. "No, no! If I go back, they'll just force me to drink those awful things again! Brother Gu Fei, please let me stay with you. I promise I'll behave…"
She suddenly grabbed Gu Fei's sleeve, afraid that he might leave her behind this time.
"Alright, alright, I agree," Gu Fei said, nodding helplessly.
Gu Fei then gently took Xiao Yi Xian's hands, speaking softly, "We've known each other for so long, it's time to go back and meet my family!"
"Meet the family…"
These words made Xiao Yi Xian pause, feeling a wave of nervousness. After all, the "family" she was about to meet were the powerful beings of an ancient clan. But after a moment of hesitation, she nodded in agreement.
"Elder Gu Qian, I'll trouble you to lead the way!" Gu Fei said, turning to him after making his decision.
"Haha, you've been away for more than a year, and all the old folks in the clan have been worried. Don't forget to greet them when you get back!" He laughed heartily, not commenting on Gu Fei and Xiao Yi Xian's relationship. After speaking, he lightly swiped his hand through the air, and a spatial rift appeared. At the Dou Saint level, creating a long-distance space tunnel was effortless.
"Farewell, Elder Xuan Kong Zi, Miss Cao Ying. Until we meet again!" Gu Fei called out as he led Xiao Yi Xian, Zi Yan, and the others into the spatial rift.
"Until we meet again…" Cao Ying whispered, watching Gu Fei's figure disappear into the distance. She silently vowed to meet him again one day, feeling inspired by his brilliance to strive harder herself.
With the assistance of Gu Qian, a Dou Saint-level expert, the journey only took half a month, and soon they arrived in the Eastern Region. Not long after they left the space tunnel, a massive city appeared before them.
"Up ahead is the Gu Sacred City," Gu Fei said, pointing at the vast city.
At first sight of the city, Xiao Yi Xian and the others were stunned. The city was entirely constructed from pale blue giant stones, which had aged over time, with pale green moss creeping over them, giving the city an ancient and somewhat decayed appearance. A powerful aura of antiquity emanated from within the city.
"This place looks a bit rundown!" Zi Yan muttered, finding the city different from what she had imagined.
Gu Fei smiled slightly and explained, "The Gu Sacred City was built by our Dou Di ancestors from ancient times. The barrier you see contains a trace of Dou Di's power. With this barrier guarding it, the Gu Sacred City is nearly impregnable."
"Dou Di's power!"
Upon hearing this, everyone took a deep breath. No wonder the closer they got to the city, the stronger the oppressive force on their souls became.
"To show respect for the Dou Di, flying is prohibited within three kilometers of the Ancient Holy City. We'll walk the rest of the way; otherwise, the barrier will knock us down."
With that, Gu Fei descended to the ground, and the others followed suit.
