Chapter 194: Want to Kill Me? Let's See If You Can Leave Alive!
"In my opinion, there's nothing unfortunate about it!"
"Back then, it was Young Master Gu Fei who couldn't tolerate certain things, so he chose to divorce!"
"And those things were caused by Miss Xun'er herself. She went too far!"
"If it weren't for that, who would be willing to divorce someone as beautiful and talented as Miss Xun'er?"
"Exactly. I've heard that this time, even though Xiao Yan came to the Gu Realm, Miss Xun'er still didn't know where to draw the line. How can she hope to win him back?"
"They're right. I really should keep some distance from Xiao Yan so that Gu Fei doesn't misunderstand."
Feeling embarrassed by the surrounding conversation, Xun'er said nothing. Although many of their words were sarcastic, they weren't entirely baseless. Xun'er quietly agreed with some of them and silently returned to her previous spot.
"How can these people say such things?"
Seeing this, Xiao Yan was furious. Xun'er and Gu Fei had mutually agreed to part ways. How did it turn into Gu Fei unilaterally divorcing her in these people's mouths?
"Xun'er, they're being too harsh!"
"How can they say such things about you?"
The next moment, Xiao Yan stood up and walked over to Xun'er, trying to comfort her. "It's alright, I know what I'm doing..."
Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Xun'er instinctively waved her hand, signaling him to stop.
For the first time, Xiao Yan saw a look of irritation on Xun'er's face directed at him. That look hurt Xiao Yan deeply, more so than the mockery of others. He could only walk away quietly.
On the high platform, Gu Fei reached out and touched the star disk. In an instant, nine stars appeared on the disk. Shortly after, a golden light emerged and quickly condensed into a dazzling golden star, far more brilliant than the one from Xun'er's previous test.
After the tenth star appeared, there seemed to be another light flickering nearby. However, at that moment, the star disk suddenly shattered, and no one noticed that scene.
"My goodness, another tenth-grade bloodline!"
"And the tenth star in Young Master Gu Fei's test is obviously much brighter than Miss Xun'er's!"
"This means that Young Master Gu Fei's bloodline grade is even higher than Miss Xun'er's!"
As the golden star appeared, nearly everyone in the square began to lose their composure. Two people with divine-grade bloodlines emerging in the same era, each stronger than the last-what would happen when they grew stronger?
"Haha, truly the heavens bless our Gu Clan!"
The elder testing Gu Fei, whose strength had reached the level of a Dou Saint, found his heart racing uncontrollably at this moment.
"Oh~"
"Daddy is amazing!"
Wushuang and Xiao Xian Yue cheered happily as they heard everyone praising Gu Fei. "Husband is truly outstanding!"
Xiao Yi Xian and Cai Lin both wore bright smiles. Who wouldn't want their partner to be admired by everyone?
On the high platform, Gu Fei smiled and waved back at the two little ones cheering for him. But in the next moment, his gaze shifted to a corner of the area.
There, three black-robed figures stood. Though their faces were hidden, Gu Fei could still sense a fleeting killing intent. The system prompt also confirmed that Gu Fei's perception was correct.
"Damn it, how is his perception so sharp?" The members of the Hun Clan lowered their heads. They had indeed been discussing how to eliminate Xun'er and Gu Fei earlier.
Two people with divine-grade bloodlines growing up would pose a significant threat to the Hun Clan.
"If you want to kill me, let's see if you can leave the Gu Realm alive..."
Gu Fei coldly glanced in their direction.
Next, the seven-colored Dragon Brush was brought out again by the Gu Clan elder.
"Gu Fei, are you ready?"
"Elder, please proceed!"
Gu Fei nodded and then closed his eyes, allowing the elder to inscribe the clan markings. Perhaps because Gu Fei's cultivation had also reached the Dou Saint level, even the elder, who was a Three-Star Dou Saint, found the process somewhat strenuous, and the drawing proceeded slowly.
Each stroke consumed a vast amount of the elder's Dou Qi.
"It's done!"n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
A few minutes later, hearing the elder's voice, Gu Fei slowly opened his eyes. On his forehead appeared a magnificent rainbow-colored clan marking, radiating with brilliant light.
"Thud!"
Under the overwhelming pressure of the seven-colored light, most of the Gu Clan members present couldn't resist the tremendous pressure from the depths of their souls and knelt down in fervent worship.
"As expected of Brother Gu Fei! His bloodline grade clearly surpasses mine..."
Xun'er, sitting below the platform, watched intently as Gu Fei received the rainbow-colored clan marking. She instinctively reached out to touch her own forehead, where a similar seven- colored marking lay.
In this era, only she and Gu Fei possessed this marking, making it incredibly precious to
Xun'er.
"Haha, this kid Gu Fei really didn't disappoint us..."
"In a few years, he might surpass us old guys..."
In the void, the ancient Gu Clan powerhouses who had been secretly observing the coming- of-age ceremony laughed and then departed after seeing Gu Fei obtain the rainbow-colored
clan marking.
"Let's go. Xun'er and Gu Fei have both finished their bloodline tests. There's nothing else
worth seeing!"
Many people in the square also began to leave.
"I shouldn't have come to this event!" Xiao Yan, feeling dejected, stood up and walked out of
the square. He had already decided that once Yao Lao woke up, he would leave the Gu Realm immediately.
...
Time flew by, and night fell.
During this time, Xuan Kongzi had been waiting outside a grand hall.
Suddenly, he sensed the seal inside the hall showing signs of weakening.
"The seal is loosening-looks like the old man is waking up!" Xuan Kongzi's face lit up with
joy.
The next moment, a familiar, elderly figure slowly walked out of the hall.
"Teacher!"
"Old man, you're finally alive!"
Seeing this elderly figure emerge, Xiao Yan and Feng Xian were both overjoyed.
Yao Lao's awakening, as the once-renowned "Number One" Alchemist in Central Plains,
would elevate the status of Falling Star Pavilion to a new level.
"This time, we really have to thank Young Master Gu Fei!"
After his resurrection, Yao Lao moved his new body slightly, then prepared to find Gu Fei to
fulfill the promised reward.
