Chapitre 270: Entering the Void Lightning Pool Again!
"Sigh..."
Ziyan suddenly let out a light sigh, and her expression turned somewhat melancholic.
"If only those elders hadn't left back then, there's no way Zhu Bei and those three would have had the chance to claim kingship and divide the Dragon Tribe!"
Her bright purple-gold eyes flashed with a hint of sorrow as she muttered to herself.
She was right!
As she spoke, Ziyan's petite body trembled slightly, and a trace of pain flickered in her eyes, clearly thinking about her father, who was trapped in the Ancient God's Space.
Seeing this, Gu Fei felt a pang in his heart.
"Don't worry, it won't be long before I collect all the ancient jade pieces..."
In the next moment, Gu Fei gently reached out, taking Ziyan's hand into his, and comforted her.
Feeling the warmth from his hand, Ziyan looked up at Gu Fei, and the sadness in her eyes gradually faded, replaced by a look of gratitude and trust.
She gave Gu Fei a radiant smile and lightly nodded.
Haha!
This girl is very strong inside. It seems I don't need to worry too much.
Gu Fei's lips curled into a slight smile. Cai Lin stood by, watching the heartwarming scene, with a flicker of complexity in her eyes.
However, Cai Lin didn't show any discomfort. Instead, she smiled warmly, feeling relieved.
She knew that Ziyan and Gu Fei had known each other for a long time, going through so much together. Their pure friendship had long surpassed any romantic feelings.
Naturally, Cai Lin didn't feel jealous over such gestures. Instead, she was genuinely happy that Gu Fei had such a close friend.
As the three of them soaked in this peaceful atmosphere, an elderly voice suddenly echoed from the sky:
"Dragon Emperor!"
Before the voice had finished, a figure appeared in the sky above Ancient Dragon Island. It was a tall old man with silver hair fluttering in the wind. Though his face was wrinkled, his eyes were sharp, and he exuded a powerful aura that made people tremble.
The old man bowed respectfully toward Ziyan upon his arrival. However, his brows furrowed slightly when he saw the closeness between Gu Fei and Ziyan.
As an elder, he was fully aware of Ziyan's importance as the Dragon Emperor. If she were swayed by an outsider, it would be a tremendous loss for the tribe!
No!
This absolutely cannot happen!
"Elder Zhu Shang, there's no need for formalities!" Ziyan quickly withdrew her hand and put on a serious expression, speaking politely.
Though she was usually lively and cute, she showed great respect in front of this elder.
It was understandable. After all, everyone knew that Elder Zhu Shang was currently the strongest being on Dragon Island, having reached the astonishing Eight-Star Dou Saint realm.
"Brother Gu Fei, this is Elder Zhu Shang of my clan," Ziyan introduced as she turned to Gu Fei.
"Junior greets Elder Zhu Shang!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Fei immediately took a step forward and respectfully cupped his hands in greeting.
No matter what, proper manners should always be observed.
Though Gu Fei was now a Six-Star Dou Saint, he still displayed neither arrogance nor servility when facing Zhu Shang, who had a higher cultivation level and more seniority.
At the same time, Gu Fei subtly released his aura, revealing his status as a Six-Star Dou Saint.
Sensing Gu Fei's aura, a hint of surprise flashed in Zhu Shang's eyes.
"So, you're the one from the Gu Clan that the Dragon Emperor often talks about. Quite remarkable!"
Zhu Shang studied Gu Fei closely before slowly speaking.
His words not only acknowledged Gu Fei but also carried a hint of probing. He understood that in a world where the strong preyed on the weak, strength was the ultimate measure of a person's value.
In this world, nothing could speak louder than the fists of a strong person.
Had Gu Fei been ordinary or of low cultivation, the top powerhouses of the Dragon Tribe wouldn't have shown him any respect. But as a Six-Star Dou Saint, Gu Fei had earned his recognition.
No matter how cruel it might seem, this was the truth of the world.
"I didn't expect the Nine-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python to reappear in the world..."
Zhu Shang's gaze shifted to Cai Lin, and a look of astonishment crossed his aged eyes as he sighed in awe.
"I was fortunate enough to find a Nine-Colored Origin Stone," Cai Lin responded with a modest smile.
Over the next few days, Gu Fei and Cai Lin, accompanied by Ziyan, stayed on Dragon Island for a while. They explored the island's wonders, met many powerful members of the tribe, and even had the chance to introduce themselves to the recently returned top elders of the clan.
During this time, Gu Fei gained a deeper understanding of the Ancient Void Dragon Tribe's heritage.
Those returning powerhouses from the void each possessed astonishing strength and vast experience. Their return had significantly bolstered the Dragon Tribe's power, making it a superpower comparable to ancient clans.
(TL/n: Add Zhu Kun, a peak 9-star Dou Saint, into the mix and they're comparable to Gu clan.)
...
"I'm heading to the Void Lightning Pool."
A few days later, Gu Fei suddenly said to Ziyan.
She was momentarily taken aback but then recalled Gu Fei's past experiences in the Void Lightning Pool. She couldn't help but feel a bit worried. However, knowing his current strength, she realized that the Black Demon Lightning was probably no longer a threat to him.
(TL/n: This should be his first time entering the pool right? I keep forgetting what happened early chapters- one of the downsides of translating so fast lol..)
"Be careful," she gently reminded.
Gu Fei waved with a smile and, in a flash, vanished from sight.
In no time, Gu Fei arrived above the Void Lightning Pool.
Looking out, an endless sea of thunder rolled beneath his feet. Countless bolts of lightning roared like dragons, creating an awe-inspiring scene.
Compared to before, Gu Fei now faced this grand spectacle of the Void Lightning Pool with much more composure.
His figure moved steadily across the pool's surface, and the enormous bolts of lightning, which flashed wildly, suddenly paused when they approached within ten feet of him before retreating in a panic.
These bolts had sensed the power within Gu Fei that made them fear him.
Without stopping, Gu Fei headed directly toward the deepest part of the pool.
Protected by the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame, even the violent lightning bolts dared not come close. This scene was a clear testament to the Demonic Flame's rightful ranking on the Heavenly Flame List.
Before long, he reached the pool's depths. Here, he saw patches of Black Demon Lightning, which were far more ferocious than ordinary lightning, each bolt containing tremendous destructive power.
Gu Fei's presence immediately triggered a frenzy among the Black Demon Lightning. In an instant, dozens of bolts surged toward him, each one as powerful as a full-strength strike from a One-Star Dou Saint.
Such terrifying power would make even Two-Star or Three-Star Dou Saints wary.
However, for him now…
Unless all the lightning bolts struck at once!
They posed no significant threat at all...
