105: Come back with me, I'll take you to meet the parents!

“Haha, it’s just that many in the clan aren’t at ease with you, Young Gu Fei, going out!”

The Elder, whom Gu Fei called Gu Qian, smiled. His figure flickered, and in an instant, he appeared directly in front of Gu Fei.

“You’ve worked hard during this time, Elder!”

Gu Fei paid his respects to Gu Qian as a Junior.

“No matter. At my age, let alone a year, even ten or twenty years, my cultivation won’t improve!”

“You, Young Gu Fei, are different!”

“In the future, you are sure to become a pillar of our clan, so we cannot afford to lose you!”

It was clear that Gu Qian greatly admired Gu Fei and placed high hopes on him.

This time, he was ordered to hide by Gu Fei’s side, not only to protect Gu Fei but also to observe and assess him.

Along the way, Gu Fei’s various performances made Gu Qian very satisfied.

Although Gu Qian occasionally wondered why Gu Fei seemed to know things in advance before doing many tasks, in the end, he attributed it all to Gu Fei’s meticulous mind and steady way of doing things.

“It seems that even within the Ancient Race, Gu Fei holds significant weight!”

After Cao Ying was rescued by Gu Fei, her gaze remained fixed on him.

The tenderness in her eyes turned to shock after hearing the conversation between Gu Fei and Gu Qian.

Although the Cao family couldn’t be considered a super-clan, relying on their relationship with the Pill Tower, they knew a few of the continent’s hidden secrets.

It was said that the Ancient Race did not live on the Fighting Qi Continent but resided in independent spaces.

Almost every one of these Ancient Race possessed the power to shake heaven and earth.

Even top-ranked major powers on the continent, such as the Pill Tower and the Hall of Souls, were no match for any Ancient Race.

Thinking of this, a hint of melancholy flashed in Cao Ying’s eyes.

Gu Fei became even more dazzling in front of her, so dazzling that he almost consumed her.

Could she, with such a powerful background, truly aspire to him?

Cao Ying developed admiration, Emotion Value +40.

Cao Ying developed shock and loss, Emotion Value +40.

Gu Fei listened to the constant Emotion Value prompts in his mind and glanced at Cao Ying out of the corner of his eye.

“This little enchantress’s emotions are truly fickle.”

Gu Fei secretly clicked his tongue.

Just then, another rift suddenly tore open in the sky above everyone.

An old man walked out of it.

This person was Xuan Kongzi, who had arrived late.

“Greetings, Senior!”

Xuan Kongzi appeared, and his mind tensed sharply as he looked at Gu Qian, quickly stepping forward to bow.

“Hmm!”

“From today’s events, it seems your Pill Tower’s defensive strength still needs to be enhanced…”

Gu Qian nodded, speaking indifferently.

“Senior is absolutely right… This incident was indeed an oversight by our Pill Tower, to actually allow members of the Hall of Souls to commit atrocities within the city…”

Hearing this, Xuan Kongzi replied very earnestly, not refuting anything.

After saying this, Xuan Kongzi’s gaze again swept over Gu Fei, who was standing beside Gu Qian, and he sighed inwardly: “It seems that this young man is highly regarded even within the Ancient Race. In just two months, two Saint-Grade powerhouses have come to assist him!”

Soon after, Xiao Yi Xian, Venerable Skyfire, Qing Lin, and Lion King also arrived at the location.

“Young Gu Fei, when do you plan to return to your clan?”

Gu Qian suddenly spoke, asking a question that Gu Xiong had also asked earlier.

Gu Fei already had an answer to this question in his heart.

This time, the Hall of Souls directly lost two Dou Zuns and would certainly not let the matter rest.

With the Hall of Souls’s methods, they would definitely investigate in secret, and then Gu Fei’s whereabouts would naturally become known to the Hun Clan members.

If he continued to stay outside, there was no guarantee what crazy things the Hun Clan might do.

Therefore, Gu Fei’s plan was to temporarily return to the clan for a period.

And on this trip, he was definitely taking Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin back. As for Zi Yan… “Zi Yan, what are your plans next? Do you want me to send you back to Dragon Island?”

Gu Fei looked at Zi Yan.

Zi Yan shook her head without hesitation: “No, I’m not going back, if I go back, they’ll force me to drink those awful things again!”

“Big Brother Gu Fei, please let me follow you. I promise I’ll be obedient…”

She suddenly grabbed Gu Fei’s sleeve, afraid that Gu Fei would leave her behind this time.

“Alright! Alright! I promise you!”

Gu Fei nodded helplessly.

Gu Fei held Xiao Yi Xian’s jade-like hands and said softly, “We’ve known each other for so long, it’s time to go back and meet the family!”

“Meet the family…”

These words made Xiao Yi Xian freeze.

She felt very nervous.

After all, the family members she was about to meet were all powerful figures of the Ancient Race.

However, she did not refuse, and after a brief hesitation, she nodded happily.

“Elder Gu Qian, I’ll trouble you!”

After making up his mind, Gu Fei turned to Gu Qian.

“Haha, you, Young Gu Fei, have been out for over a year, and the old fellows in the clan miss you very much. Don’t forget to greet them when you return!”

Gu Qian laughed heartily. He did not express his opinion on Gu Fei and Xiao Yi Xian’s relationship.

After speaking, he gently swiped his palm through the Void Realm, and a spatial rift appeared.

At the Saint-Grade level, one could easily construct a long-distance spatial wormhole at will.

“Senior Xuan Kongzi, Young Miss Cao Ying, we shall meet again if fated!”

After bidding farewell, Gu Fei led Xiao Yi Xian, Zi Yan, and the others into the spatial rift.

“We shall meet again if fated…”

Cao Ying watched Gu Fei’s receding figure, feeling secretly saddened. She secretly swore in her heart that she would definitely see Gu Fei again in the future. Gu Fei was so dazzling, and she too had to continue working hard.

Along the way, with the help of Gu Qian, a Saint-Grade powerhouse, Gu Fei and his companions arrived in the Eastern Region in just half a month.

Soon after leaving the spatial wormhole, a massive city clearly appeared in their sight.

“That’s Ancient Saint City ahead!”

Gu Fei pointed to the massive city before them.

At first sight of the city, Xiao Yi Xian and the others were stunned.

Ancient Saint City was entirely constructed from pale green giant rocks. As time passed, some pale green moss clung to the giant rocks, making the entire city appear somewhat decayed, and an exceptionally ancient aura emanated from within the city.

“This place looks a bit dilapidated!” Zi Yan grumbled. The city was somewhat different from what she had imagined.

Gu Fei smiled slightly and said, “Ancient Saint City was left behind from ancient times. It is said to have been built by my clan’s Dou Di ancestor, and that light barrier contains a trace of Dou Di power. With this light barrier protecting it, this Ancient Saint City can be described as impregnable.”

“Dou Di power!”

Everyone gasped upon hearing this. No wonder, the closer they got to Ancient Saint City, the stronger the pressure emanating from their Soul became.

“To show reverence to Dou Di powerhouses, flying is prohibited within a thousand zhang radius of Ancient Saint City. Let’s walk there; otherwise, we’ll be knocked down from the sky by the pressure.”

With that, Gu Fei slowly descended to the ground, and the rest of the group followed suit.
