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

Chapter 233: Appointment of the Young Patriarch! Gu Yuan’s Doubt!



Refining pills is much like cultivation. Time passes unnoticed.

On Gu Fei's mountain, an earth-shattering celestial phenomenon occurred every half month or so. Every time this phenomenon happened, the Gu Clan celebrated, as it signified that Gu Fei had successfully refined a ninth-grade treasure pill- the Great Bodhisattva Return Pill. This pill could increase the chance of a Dou Venerate peak expert advancing to a half-saint by 50%. Such a pill was priceless.

"The sixth time already!"

That day, the sky above Gu Fei's mountain was once again covered with pitch-black clouds, and black lightning churned within.

"The sixth ninth-grade treasure pill!"

"Brother Gu Fei's skill in alchemy is unmatched in the world today!"

"Yes, after this, our Gu Clan may have six more Saints!"

The onlookers gazed at the dark clouds in the sky, now accustomed to the sight. What once shocked them had become a routine spectacle. The Black Demon Lightning Tribulation had turned into something to be admired calmly.

"Brother Gu Fei, you're truly amazing!"

Not far away, Xun'er gazed at the mountain where Gu Fei stood, her eyes filled with tenderness. The words he said during their last trip to the Ancient Wasteland Region, "Come with me," still echoed in her mind. Every time she recalled it, a sweet smile would unknowingly appear on her lips.

On the mountain, Xiao Yi Xian, Cai Lin, Qing Lin, Wushuang, Xian Yue, and Ling Xi were also watching the sky, seeing Gu Fei effortlessly dissolve the Black Demon Lightning.

"Master is so powerful!"

Ling Xi's eyes were filled with reverence. To be accepted as the disciple of such a peerless Dou Saint was the greatest fortune of her life, all thanks to Xian Yue and Wushuang.

"Master is truly divine!"

At the mountainside, the Amethyst Winged Lion King also looked up in awe.

"Dear, you've been refining pills for nearly six months. You should rest for a bit..."

Although Xiao Yi Xian was happy that her husband was admired by so many, she cared more about his well-being. Refining pills is a mentally exhausting task, and after doing it continuously for so long, Gu Fei's spiritual power must be heavily depleted.

"Hmm..."

Gu Fei grabbed the escaping ninth-grade treasure pill and nodded slightly at Xiao Yi Xian's words. He had successfully refined six Great Bodhisattva Return Pills, and his mind was indeed quite fatigued, given the constant concentration required for refining ninth-grade pills. However, high-level alchemy also benefited his cultivation.

Now, Gu Fei felt that he was on the verge of breaking through to the Five-Star Dou Saint realm.

"Take these..."

After descending from the sky, Gu Fei handed two of the Pills to Xiao Yi Xian and Cai Lin. "You must be tired..."

Xiao Yi Xian gently caressed Gu Fei's face, her eyes full of tenderness. While others admired his glory, only she truly understood his hard work.

"I'm fine..."

Gu Fei grinned, "I'll probably sleep for three days and three nights now!"

"You should get some good rest!"

Xiao Yi Xian gently pushed Gu Fei into the room. He fell into bed and, sure enough, slept for three full days. When he awoke, Gu Fei felt his soul power had grown significantly.

"Papa, you're awake!"

When Gu Fei got up, Wushuang, who happened to be passing by, ran over. Seeing the dirty and adorable child, Gu Fei smiled warmly and lifted him up.

Before long, Xian Yue also arrived after hearing the commotion. The two children stayed by Gu Fei's side, making him feel that there was nothing more joyous than this.

...

"I'm going to meet the Elders."

A few days later, after recovering, Gu Fei left his mountain and headed towards the depths of the Gu Sacred Mountain Range. Before long, he arrived at a grand hall where several Gu Clan elders were gathered.

"Gu Fei is here!"

Seeing Gu Fei enter, the elders in the hall beamed with smiles.

"Gu Fei, I heard you killed the Hun Clan's divine-bloodline Hun Yu in the Ancient Wasteland Region. That's a great achievement..."

One of the Gu Clan elders chuckled. Though the Hun Clan had been enraged by this and had retaliated against the Gu Clan furiously, the two clans had already reached a point of no return, just short of all-out war. The Gu Clan had prepared countermeasures for the Hun Clan's revenge, wiping out anything related to the Hun Clan in the Eastern Region, leaving no opportunities for them.

"Hun Yu was arrogant without the strength to back it up, so his death was deserved..."

Gu Fei smiled casually. He didn't care about such matters anymore. He had come to deliver some pills. Out of the six Great Bodhisattva Return Pills he had refined, he handed over two to the clan.

"Hehe, Gu Fei, your alchemy skills are probably so impressive that even the Yao Clan would seek your guidance..."

As Gu Fei handed over the two ninth-grade treasure pills, a figure suddenly appeared on the main seat of the hall without warning. Even Gu Fei hadn't sensed the arrival beforehand.

"Greetings, Patriarch!"

Gu Fei and the elders all bowed towards the middle-aged man sitting on the main seat. "Today, with all the elders gathered here, I have an announcement to make!"

"Gu Fei, from today onwards, you will be the Young Patriarch of the Gu Clan, and in the future, you will succeed me as Patriarch!"

When Gu Yuan finished speaking, none of the people present were surprised. With Gu Fei's current talent, cultivation, and extraordinary alchemy skills, who else was more qualified to

be the Young Patriarch?

"Thank you, Patriarch!"

Gu Fei bowed again without refusing. Since ancient times, power was held by those capable of it, and Gu Fei was confident that he could lead the Gu Clan to glory in the future.

"No need for formalities!"

As Gu Yuan gazed at the outstanding Gu Fei, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Originally, such an exceptional clan member was supposed to be his son-in-law, but unfortunate events

had changed that...Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"Patriarch, there is something that has been on my mind, and I'd like to address it now."

"Speak freely!"

Seeing the serious expression on Gu Fei's face, Gu Yuan became more serious as well. Usually, when Gu Fei had this look, it meant something important.

"In the Hun Clan, what is the current level of Hun Tiandi's soul realm?"

Gu Fei didn't immediately reveal his thoughts but instead asked Gu Yuan a question first.

"Hun Tiandi?"

"His soul realm should be the same as mine. He has long reached the God Realm of the soul."

Gu Yuan slowly replied, a hint of confusion in his eyes, unsure why Gu Fei was asking about this suddenly.
