155: The Thunder Clan delegation arrives, wanting to marry Xun'er!

“May everything go smoothly!”

Compared to Zhu Li’s optimism, Gu Fei, who had been full of confidence, now frowned slightly.

At this moment, he dared not relax in the slightest.

He knew that the energy contained in the dragon phoenix origin fruit was terrifying, comparable to all the Dou Qi within a Four-Star Dou Sheng expert. Zi Yan’s absorption would definitely not be that easy.

Currently, Zi Yan was only absorbing the outermost layer.

As expected, after absorbing some of the dragon phoenix origin fruit’s energy, the overflowing energy not only didn’t decrease but instead erupted again!

“Boom!”

With a muffled sound emanating from within Zi Yan’s body, her entire body was enveloped in purple and gold energy.

In fact, that energy had already liquefied and seeped out, traversing between Zi Yan’s flesh and blood.

Her body could no longer withstand so much energy, which led to the overflow.

“The overflowing energy is crystallizing!”

Qing Lin suddenly exclaimed, feeling that Zi Yan’s arm had begun to solidify.

“If she can’t absorb the energy in time, she will eventually be sealed by it, like an insect in amber!”

Gu Fei’s expression was extremely grave.

Zi Yan’s face flickered between various shades, and she, who always had a smile on her face, now showed a pained expression. The surging energy within her body was almost enough to burst her body directly.

“Before this, the dragon phoenix origin fruit had appeared a few times, but, throughout history, it only succeeded twice!”

Zhu Li frowned tightly, extremely worried.

“The success rate of absorbing this thing is so low?!”

Hearing this, Caier looked at Zhu Li in great surprise, then at Zi Yan, her eyes filled with worry.

“Of these two dragon phoenix origin fruits, one was obtained by the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan. They successfully absorbed the dragon phoenix origin fruit and gave birth to a super expert. During that period, our Void Ancient Dragon Clan was suppressed by the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan. However, fortunately, a few hundred years later, our Ancient Dragon Clan also successfully obtained a dragon phoenix origin fruit.”

“Our Senior successfully absorbed it, which allowed us to regain the disadvantage. Unfortunately, in a later bloodbath between the two clans, the two super Bloodline experts perished together…”

Thinking about the records in the secret history of the Void Ancient Dragon Clan, Zhu Li began to doubt himself.

He looked at the extremely pained Zi Yan in front of him, regretting that he shouldn’t have let Zi Yan absorb the dragon phoenix origin fruit now. Absorbing such a treasure now was a bit too early for Zi Yan.

Gu Fei saw Zhu Li’s concern and comforted him, “Elder Zhu Li, there’s no need to worry! Since I dared to let Zi Yan refine the dragon phoenix origin fruit now, I have full confidence!”

After speaking, Gu Fei immediately sat cross-legged behind Zi Yan, pressing his hands on her back. The abnormal flame appeared, enveloping Zi Yan.

His abnormal flame, a Fusion of the Green Lotus Core Flame, Sea Heart Flame, Fallen Heart Flame, and Three Thousand Burning Flame, was very powerful, already sufficient to refine the Dragon Phoenix Crystals produced by the excess energy.

With him present, there was no need to worry about Zi Yan being enveloped by the crystallized energy.

Nor was there any need to worry about the excess energy causing Zi Yan to explode and die.

He was Zi Yan’s last line of defense.

Gu Fei’s Soul Power spread out, extremely focused, doing his best to control the abnormal flame’s temperature.

He ensured that the temperature would not harm Zi Yan in the slightest, and could also help her refine the Dragon Phoenix Origin energy that had already solidified into crystals.

This required extreme control over the abnormal flame; even Gu Fei needed to concentrate fully.

With Gu Fei’s help, the overflowing energy, after solidifying, would re-liquefy and, at an appropriate time, flow back into Zi Yan’s body, re-integrating into her flesh and blood.

During the process of helping Zi Yan absorb, the abnormal flame would naturally refine a portion of the energy for Gu Fei’s use.

Gu Fei did not intentionally plunder Zi Yan’s Opportunity; it was just that there was too much overflowing energy.

If all of it were forced into Zi Yan’s body, it would only cause her immense pain.

Gu Fei absorbing some appropriately would not affect Zi Yan and could also alleviate her pressure. Moreover, for him, the energy of the dragon phoenix origin fruit was also a good Opportunity.

“With Big Brother Gu Fei’s help, Zi Yan’s complexion looks much better.”

Qing Lin worried for Zi Yan in her heart.

“Mommy, Sister Zi Yan, she’ll be alright, won’t she!”

Little Xian Le, lying in Xiao Yi Xian’s arms, heard their conversation and was also very worried about Zi Yan.

“Don’t worry, Zi Yan will definitely be fine. Didn’t you see Daddy helping too?”

“With your Daddy around, any trouble can be solved…”

Xiao Yi Xian stroked Little Xian Le’s head, trying to relax her.

At this moment, the terrifyingly pure energy of the dragon phoenix origin fruit continuously surged on Gu Fei Peak.

“Oh? The power of the Void Ancient Dragon Clan… No, there’s even Heavenly Demon Phoenix!”

In a palace deep within the Ancient Sacred Mountain Range, Gu Fei’s grandfather, Black Annihilation King Gu Lie, sensed this aura and immediately traced its source. He discovered that it was actually appearing on Gu Fei’s peak.

He knew that Gu Fei had a friend from the Void Ancient Dragon Clan. With the doubts in his heart, Gu Lie arrived near the peak and witnessed Gu Fei helping Zi Yan refine the dragon phoenix origin fruit.

“Such pure energy… This is a heaven-sent Opportunity!”

Gu Lie gazed at Zi Yan, and even a figure like him, after feeling the terrifying energy within Zi Yan’s body, couldn’t help but sigh with emotion, a look of surprise on his face.

“Indeed, and it’s an Opportunity unique to the Demonic Beast Clan.”

Suddenly, a voice sounded beside Gu Lie, and a floating phantom appeared. It was Gu Yuan; he had also sensed the anomaly and then descended to this place.

“This little girl’s future achievements are bound to be extraordinary. Her deep friendship with Gu Fei is also a good thing for our Gu Clan.”

Gu Lie smiled and nodded… On Gu Fei Peak,

Even with Gu Fei’s help, the refining process still lasted for a very long time, and even with Gu Fei’s ability, he couldn’t sustain such terrifying consumption.

Fortunately, Gu Fei carried many pre-refined recovery Medicinal Pills on him.

He continuously took Medicinal Pills during the process of helping Zi Yan refine, which barely allowed him to sustain the abnormal flame.

The entire process lasted for over a month before the surging energy within Zi Yan’s body stabilized somewhat.

Gu Fei’s pressure consequently lessened significantly. He also gained a lot during the month he spent helping Zi Yan refine; he felt that he was only a step away from Nine-Star Dou Zun.

If he wanted to, he could even step over it directly.

“Is it done?”

Zhu Li saw that Gu Fei’s expression was no longer grave and Zi Yan’s aura had stabilized a lot, so he asked.

“Zi Yan still has some time before she comes out of seclusion, but there shouldn’t be any problems now.”

Gu Fei let out a long breath.

Suddenly, a wave of dizziness came over him. For the past few days, his Mental Energy had been strained, and what he consumed was not just Dou Qi, but also his energy and Mental Energy.

Dou Qi could be recovered with Medicinal Pills, but the recovery of energy required natural rest… Meanwhile, within the Ancient World, the Lei Clan’s envoy visited.

There were seven people from the Lei Clan, two of whom were Lei Clan Elders, both of whom had reached the Dou Sheng realm.

The remaining five were some young people.

Among the young people, the leader was named Lei Dong. He was only thirty years old, but his cultivation had already reached Half-Saint.

It could be said that he crushed the other young generation!

And the purpose of the Lei Clan’s visit this time was very simple: to propose marriage, wanting Lei Dong to marry Xun'er, the daughter of the Gu Clan Chief.
