260: Zi Yan: I miss you so much!

"Ying ying!"

"Ying ying!"

As soon as the tiny Fire Infant appeared, its large, pink-flamed eyes looked towards Gu Fei.

Then, it stretched out its chubby little hand, hugged Gu Fei's palm, and rubbed against it continuously, showing extreme intimacy.

"This little fellow..."

Seeing the Fire Infant's actions, a gentle smile unconsciously appeared on Gu Fei's face.

The Fire Infant was not large, only slightly bigger than his palm, but it looked chubby, like a small ball.

A sky-high braid topped its small head, and a pink little belly-band was worn on its body, revealing a bare bottom.

On its small forehead, there was a pink lotus fire-mark, which looked extremely cute.

"Ying ying!"

Seeing the smile on Gu Fei's face, the Fire Infant hugged Gu Fei's palm and shook it back and forth, emitting a tender and strange sound from its mouth.

Gu Fei, after all, had two children, and at this moment, his paternal love seemed to be overflowing. He reached out and gently stroked the small Fire Infant's head.

Then, his palm slid down, and he gently pinched the little fellow's cheek.

The soft and smooth touch made him realize that this Fire Infant was actually like a real infant; its skin felt exactly like that of a human.

Moreover, while touching it, he also sensed that he seemed to have a strange connection with this little thing.

That familiar feeling was no different from when he controlled the abnormal flames within his body in the past.

It was precisely because of that unique sensation that the Fire Infant, like a small pet, regarded Gu Fei as the closest person.

"Haha, if Xian Le and Wushuang saw this little fellow, they would definitely be very happy!"

At this moment, Gu Fei suddenly thought of his two children and their mother.

He had been in seclusion for so long this time.

They must have been worried sick!

Thinking of this, Gu Fei had no intention of staying long. He sharply slashed the space in front of him with his palm, and some pink flames emerged from his fingertips.

His finger merely swept across, and the space, which many Six-Star Dou Sheng powerhouses found helpless against, was forcefully torn open with a huge crack.

After the rift appeared, Gu Fei stepped in without hesitation, and with a sway of his figure, he vanished along with the spatial rift.

And with Gu Fei's departure, this Demon Flame Space finally became completely silent.

This space, from now on, would never reappear, and it would gradually be forgotten in the long river of time... "What is this?"

On the Demon Fire Plains, Zi Yan sat cross-legged.

Suddenly, she sensed a trace of spatial power and hurriedly directed her gaze there.

In her expectant gaze, a familiar figure slowly emerged.

"Brother Gu Fei, you've finally come out!"

"Husband!"

Zi Yan and Xiao Yi Xian simultaneously stood up excitedly, then rushed towards the figure in the sky.

"You've been waiting here all this time?"

Looking at the two familiar figures rushing towards him, Gu Fei's face showed a hint of surprise.

Then, with a pained heart, he opened his arms and embraced Xiao Yi Xian and Zi Yan's delicate bodies.

His nose also took a deep whiff of the faint scent on the two women's bodies.

"Didn't I tell you that I would be fine?"

"I was worried about you..."

Gu Fei's palm stroked the cheeks of the two women.

When Zi Yan spoke, she was even choked with emotion and her eyes were moist.

Gu Fei then reached out and wiped away the tears that had just fallen from her eyes.

Seeing Gu Fei's intimate gesture towards Zi Yan, Xiao Yi Xian didn't feel the slightest bit uncomfortable.

Xiao Yi Xian was very clear about Zi Yan's feelings for Gu Fei; if it were an ordinary person, who would foolishly wait here for over a year?

Xiao Yi Xian saw all the worry and impatience in Zi Yan's heart due to her concern for Gu Fei.

After the three of them leaned against each other for a while, they slowly separated.

"During my seclusion, did anything happen?" Gu Fei asked.

"There shouldn't be anything major. During this time, Sister Xiao Yi Xian and I, together, destroyed a Hall of Souls branch on the Demon Fire Plains!"

Zi Yan replied earnestly.

The two of them had basically not left this place, so even if something happened in the Central Plains, they wouldn't know.

"Then let's go back first, the children must be anxious too!"

As Gu Fei's words fell, he casually constructed a spatial wormhole, then wrapped his arms around Xiao Yi Xian's and Zi Yan's slender waists respectively and stepped in... Soon, Gu Fei returned to the Ancient World.

His return made many Gu Clan Elders breathe a sigh of relief.

And upon learning that Gu Fei had successfully refined the Purification Lotus Demon Flame and raised his cultivation to Six-Star Dou Sheng, all the Gu Clan Elders erupted in excitement.

The current Gu Fei's cultivation had already surpassed the vast majority of the older generation powerhouses of the Gu Clan.

Only a handful of people could surpass Gu Fei in cultivation.

"Haha, perhaps in less than ten years, this kid will surpass this old man!"

Gu Lie was happier than any other Elder, because Gu Fei was his biological grandson.

No one could compare to this relationship.

"Welcome, Young Clan Leader!"

"Welcome, Young Clan Leader!"

Every young clan member of the Gu Clan who met Gu Fei along the way respectfully bowed to him.

Even Gu Yao and Gu Qingyang were no exception.

Everyone genuinely recognized Gu Fei as their Young Clan Leader.

However, Gu Fei did not stop along the way and returned directly to his small mountain peak.

"Daddy!"

"Mommy!"

"Master, Mistress!"

"Brother Gu Fei, Sister Xian'er..."

"Master, you're back!"

On the mountain peak, Wushuang, Xian Le, Ling Xi, Qing Lin, Lion King, and Venerable Skyfire, among others, looked at the returning trio of Gu Fei, all appearing exceptionally excited.

During this past year, Gu Fei and the others' absence had kept everyone worried.

"It's alright, it's over. How could the Purification Lotus Demon Flame harm me?"

Gu Fei smiled calmly.

Then, with a thought, he summoned the Fire Infant from within his body.

"Ying ying!"

As soon as the Fire Infant appeared, the surrounding space was distorted by the high temperature.

And the little fellow kept making strange and tender sounds from its mouth.

"What is this?"

Everyone's gaze was drawn to this baby-like creature.

"This is a Fire Infant, a mutation that resulted from the Fusion of the six types of abnormal flames I control!"

Gu Fei explained with a smile.

"So that's how it is!"

"Daddy, does it have a name?"

Xian Le blinked her big eyes, curious.

"This little fellow, every time it comes out, it always likes to cry 'ying ying ying ying', so why don't we call it Xiao Ying..."

Hearing this, Gu Fei pondered.

"Ying ying! Ying ying!"

As if understanding Gu Fei's words, the little fellow began to jump up and down on Gu Fei's palm.
