Bab 112: I Will Make You Regret Divorcing Me!
"What are you thinking about? Worried that you'll lose to Gu Fei in the upcoming competition?"
After leaving Gu Fei's place, Gu Qing Yang noticed that Gu Yao seemed troubled, as if something was on his mind.
"Do you think we should inform Xun'er about Gu Fei's participation in the competition?"
"Xun'er isn't competing, so why tell her?"
Gu Qing Yang was unaware of what Gu Yao was thinking.
"Xun'er cares deeply about Gu Fei. She would definitely want to know. Let's go see her!"
Gu Yao insisted, and Gu Qing Yang followed along.
At that moment, Xun'er was on her mountain peak, staring at a large, cracked boulder in front of her, clearly the result of her own doing. When Xun'er saw Gu Yao and Gu Qing Yang approaching, she glanced at them indifferently without saying a word.
Gu Yao landed beside Xun'er and spoke softly, "Did you know that two positions for commander in the Black Submerged Army have opened up?"
Xun'er, deep in thought, didn't respond.
"Gu Fei is also interested in one of those positions," Gu Yao said, finally catching Xun'er's attention. Her gaze turned even colder as she looked at Gu Yao and asked, "What? Gu Fei plans to compete for a commander position?"
"Yes," Gu Yao confirmed.
Xun'er's beautiful eyes flickered. Since Gu Fei wanted to become a commander in the Black Submerged Army, she would make sure it wasn't an easy path for him.
"Do you think Gu Fei has what it takes?"
Xun'er asked, showing some interest.
"Although Gu Fei has already broken through to Dou Venerate, I broke through to Two-Star Dou Venerate ten days ago. As it stands, it should be difficult for Gu Fei to beat me," Gu Qing Yang confidently replied. The gap of one star in Dou Venerates was like a chasm, which was why Gu Qing Yang could make such a claim.
"Though Gu Fei and I are on the same level in cultivation, I am a few years older and have more experience in controlling Dou Techniques than he does," Gu Yao added, though he knew his confidence was somewhat shaky.
"Good. Gu Fei may be hailed as the greatest prodigy of our clan in a thousand years, but this time, he'll experience the sting of defeat..."
"I want him to realize that there are countless people stronger than him in this world, and he has no right to be arrogant!"
Hearing Gu Qing Yang and Gu Yao's confidence in defeating Gu Fei made Xun'er very pleased. She eagerly anticipated seeing Gu Fei's humiliation in the upcoming competition. Only his disgrace could ease the resentment in her heart.
Seeing Xun'er smile, Gu Yao silently clenched his fists.
"I must seize this opportunity!" Gu Yao vowed to himself. He knew this could be a crucial moment in his life. If he could defeat Gu Fei in the competition, he might finally gain Xun'er's favor.
He had been infatuated with Xun'er since childhood, and when Xun'er married Gu Fei, he thought he would live the rest of his life in regret. But Gu Fei and Xun'er's divorce changed everything. For the first time, he felt closer to Xun'er than ever before.
For this, he would spare no effort and give it his all!
After leaving Xun'er's residence, both Gu Yao and Gu Qing Yang began preparing for the competition in three months. Whether for themselves or for others, they had to display their full strength on stage.
...
Time flew by, and three months passed in the blink of an eye.
"The competition is about to start. Are you confident you can knock them all down?"
Outside the bamboo building, Gu Fei and his group gathered. Seeing Zi Yan's eager expression, one might think she was the one participating in the competition.
"I don't make false claims... but I probably won't lose."
After speaking, Gu Fei looked inward at his Dou Qi, which had become even more powerful since his closed-door training. He had grown significantly stronger during this time.
"In the competition, everyone will be giving their all. No matter the outcome, you must prioritize your safety."
Xiao Yi Xian is feeling concerned. Emotion value +100
Xiao Yi Xian expressed her worry, hoping only for Gu Fei's safe return.
Gu Fei felt warmth in his heart and gently embraced Xiao Yi Xian.
"Don't worry, those two can't hurt me."
After speaking, Gu Fei took Xiao Yi Xian in his arms and flew off into the distance, followed closely by Zi Yan and the others. Their destination was a massive plaza filled with an ancient aura.
When Gu Fei and his group arrived at the plaza, they found it already packed with a dense crowd.
Most of the crowd wore black armor- they were the renowned Black Submerged Army of the Gu Clan! Even from their aura alone, one could sense their strength.
Becoming a member of the Black Submerged Army was a dream for many young members of the Gu Clan. Standing out among them to achieve the rank of commander was even more prestigious. Such positions brought immense honor within the clan, making many aspire to join the Black Submerged Army from a young age.
The competition for commander positions naturally attracted a massive audience. Everyone wanted to see which young talents would rise to become the new commanders of the Black Submerged Army.
Gu Fei's arrival drew considerable attention.
"Is that Gu Fei's new woman? She's quite a beauty, but her strength seems lacking."
"Indeed. I heard she just reached the Dou King level. That's pretty... wait, what? She's already at Four-Star Dou King? She advanced three stars in just a few months?"
"That cultivation speed is impressive, even faster than many in our Gu Clan!"
Due to Xiao Yi Xian's unique background, the Gu Clan members paid her a lot of attention. When they discovered her rapid advancement, they were astonished.
They couldn't help but marvel- no wonder Gu Fei liked Xiao Yi Xian; she was a genius too!
The crowd's gossip reached Xun'er's ears, making her feel uneasy. She disdainfully looked at Xiao Yi Xian. Every time someone praised Xiao Yi Xian, Xun'er felt irritated.
"Gu Fei, I will make you understand that divorcing me was the biggest mistake of your life, one you will regret forever!"
Xun'er silently vowed, her fists unconsciously clenching.
"Let's sit down."
Upon arriving, Gu Fei led his group to a good spot where they could clearly see the arena.
Xun'er sat not far from Gu Fei's group, and he could vaguely feel her gaze on him, but he didn't even bother to glance in her direction.
Gu Qing Yang and Gu Yao were also present, but they were focused on preparing for the competition and did not exchange greetings with Gu Fei.
"The Gu Clan's competitions are quite lively!"
Zi Yan cheerfully sat next to Xiao Yi Xian, waiting for the competition to begin.
Shortly after, one of the four generals of the Black Submerged Army, Gu Zhan, arrived. The previously chaotic plaza instantly fell silent.
Gu Zhan, a peak Nine-Star Dou Zun, was renowned within the Gu Clan.
"Today marks the competition for the seventh and eighth commander positions in the Black Submerged Army..."
"As usual, the top two ranked competitors will be appointed as commanders!"
Gu Zhan's voice reached every corner of the plaza.
"Without further ado, let the competition begin!"
"In the first match, Gu Fei versus Gu Yao..."
