BTTH: I married Xun'er, but she refuses to consummate our marriage!

Chapter 193: Is It So Hard to Look at Me?



"Tenth-grade bloodline... I never thought Xun'er would be so exceptional!"

"Even in this powerful Gu Clan, she is basking in such radiant glory..."

"And I... I'm just a nobody in the eyes of everyone, a mere waste..."

In one corner of the square, Xiao Yan watched Xun'er, who stood on the high platform, radiant and glorious. At first, he smiled- a genuine smile of happiness for Xun'er's achievement.

But soon, that smile froze on his face and turned into a deep, bitter feeling in his heart. Xiao Yan realized that if he continued to live as he was, the gap between them would only grow wider, and he might never have any chance with Xun'er again.

Meanwhile, Gu Fei hadn't even glanced at the high platform. He was busy playing with his two children and chatting with Cai Lin, Xiao Yi Xian, and Zi Yan.

"Divine-grade bloodline sounds so powerful... Dad, what is your bloodline level?" Xian Yue, listening to the excited discussions around her, curiously asked.

"If you want to know your father's bloodline grade, you'll find out soon enough!" Gu Fei teased, gently tapping Xian Le's nose.

"Your father is the number one genius in the Gu Clan; his bloodline level is naturally the highest!" Xiao Yi Xian added.

To be honest, when Xiao Yi Xian and Cai Lin saw that Xun'er had reached the divine-grade bloodline, they were both a bit surprised. After all, Xun'er's previous cultivation speed seemed too slow, not matching her bloodline level.

"It's really a divine-grade bloodline!" The elder on the high platform, who had tested Xun'er's bloodline, looked solemn.

The next moment, he extended his hands respectfully and gently grasped the air in front of him. As he did, a seven-colored dragon brush appeared in his hands, glowing brilliantly. The appearance of this seven-colored dragon brush caused almost every member of the Gu Clan present to show a look of reverence.

"The Seven-Colored Dragon Brush... something the Gu Clan hasn't used in a thousand years is finally being brought out..."

"With such a bloodline, as long as she has enough time, this girl has a great chance of becoming a nine-star Dou Saint!"

Many strong individuals from other ancient clans, who were watching, were filled with mixed emotions- some envious, some jealous.

'Gu Fei, I've even earned the recognition of the Seven-Colored Dragon Brush, and you still can't... can't look at me, even just once?' Xun'er glanced at Gu Fei once again. Seeing him still focused on playing with the children and chatting with the two women, never once looking in her direction, she felt deeply disappointed.

At this moment, she desperately hoped to gain Gu Fei's recognition.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

But the beautiful scene she envisioned, where their eyes would meet, never materialized. "Xun'er..." The elder holding the Seven-Colored Dragon Brush called out, reminding her. Hearing this, Xun'er finally retracted her gaze and closed her eyes slightly.

The elder's expression became even more serious as a vast, overwhelming aura surged from his body. Then, he tightened his grip on the Seven-Colored Dragon Brush and swiftly moved his arm. One stroke at a time, a rainbow-colored clan mark began to appear on Xun'er's smooth forehead.

As the rainbow-colored clan mark slowly took shape, the elder's hand holding the brush trembled slightly, and the Dou Qi in his body rapidly drained away like a tidal wave.

"What a terrifying brush... No wonder the Gu Clan hasn't used it in a thousand years!"

"Just the rate at which it drains Dou Qi... Without Dou Saint strength, one could be instantly drained dry!"

Feeling the rapid depletion of Dou Qi within him, the elder's expression darkened slightly. He quickly focused, carefully controlling the brush to ensure a flawless completion.

"Hiss, hiss!" The Seven-Colored Dragon Brush danced in the air just half an inch from Xun'er's forehead.

"Phew!"

After ten minutes, the drawing finally completed under everyone's gaze.

"It's done..." The elder's words prompted Xun'er to slowly open her eyes.

At the moment her eyes opened, the rainbow-colored clan mark on her forehead burst into a dazzling, radiant light!

"Heh heh, a rainbow-colored clan mark... After a thousand years, the Gu Clan has finally seen it again!"

"I wonder what kind of surprise Gu Fei will bring us next?"

As the seven-colored light erupted, a few faint, elderly chuckles echoed across the sky, quickly fading away.

"Heh, I will personally oversee the next part!" Another elder soon arrived, taking over the task of testing the bloodlines.

This elder was even stronger than the one who had tested Xun'er's bloodline earlier. Seeing how the Gu Clan was preparing, many of the powerful individuals who had come to observe the ceremony, as well as the ancient clans who had come to watch, were shocked. But they soon understood.

"It seems that the next person to be tested will be Gu Fei, the first genius of the Gu Clan..." "Since Gu Fei is regarded as the top genius, his bloodline level must be extraordinary!" "Could it be that the Gu Clan will have two divine-grade bloodlines in one generation?" "That seems unlikely. A divine-grade bloodline is a rarity even in a thousand years... While Gu Fei's cultivation is outstanding, his bloodline level might not be as high..."

For a moment, all eyes were on Gu Fei, who was still chatting with his family.

"Next, Gu Fei!" As expected, the elder who had just appeared called out Gu Fei's name.

"Dad, dad, it's your turn!" Upon hearing her father's name, Xian Yue excitedly waved.

"I wonder what level Dad will reach? He should be stronger than that person, right?" Wu Shuang also looked forward to it.

Seeing the reaction of the two children, Gu Fei smiled. He then handed them over to Xiao Yi Xian and Cai Lin before walking up to the platform.

"Gu Fei, I hope you amaze everyone!" Xun'er stood at the edge of the platform, smiling brightly as she wished Gu Fei good luck.

She deliberately lingered on the platform for a while, just to get closer to Gu Fei.

However, Gu Fei didn't even acknowledge her wish. Without stopping, he walked straight toward the elder in charge of the test.

"It seems the young lady of the Gu Clan is getting the cold shoulder!"

"Heh, it's said they were once husband and wife, and their marriage was the envy of many!"

"What a pity... Such a talented couple, yet they've ended up on separate paths!"

This scene caught the attention of some people nearby, sparking a series of murmurs.
