270: Enter the Void Thunder Pool again!

Zi Yan had just finished speaking.

Gu Fei and Caier were still immersed in the shock of the Dragon Clan's profound heritage.

“Sigh,”

Zi Yan suddenly let out a soft sigh, her expression turning a little melancholic.

“If those Seniors hadn't left back then, how could those three guys, Zhubei, have the chance to claim kingship and split the Dragon Clan!”

A hint of sadness flashed in her bright purplish-gold eyes as she murmured to herself.

What she said was true!

As she spoke, Zi Yan's petite body trembled slightly, and a look of pain appeared in her eyes.

Clearly, bringing up the past reminded her of her father, who was trapped in the Ancient Emperor's Space.

Seeing this, Gu Fei also felt a pang in his heart.

“Don't worry, it won't be long before I can gather all the ancient jade.”

The next moment, Gu Fei reached out and gently held Zi Yan's soft, cool hand, comforting her tenderly.

A warmth emanated from his palm, and Zi Yan looked up at Gu Fei, the worry in her eyes gradually dissipating, replaced by a touch of gratitude and trust.

She gave Gu Fei a brilliant smile and nodded lightly.

Haha!

This girl is actually very strong-willed.

It seems he doesn't need to worry too much.

The corner of Gu Fei's mouth curved slightly upward.

Caier stood aside, watching this warm scene, a complex look flashing in her eyes.

However, Caier did not show any displeasure; instead, she revealed a relieved smile.

She knew very well that Zi Yan and Gu Fei had known each other for so long and had experienced so much together, that their pure friendship had long surpassed romantic love.

Naturally, she wouldn't be jealous of such an action; instead, she was happy that Gu Fei had such a close friend.

Just as the three of them were immersed in this warm atmosphere, an old voice suddenly came from the sky:

“Dragon Emperor!”

Before the words finished, a figure emerged from above Dragon Island. It was a tall old man with silver hair fluttering in the wind. Although his face was covered with wrinkles, his eyes were bright and piercing, and he exuded a powerful, heart-palpitating aura.

As soon as the old man appeared, he bowed to Zi Yan, appearing extremely respectful. However, when he saw Gu Fei and Zi Yan's intimate actions, his brow couldn't help but furrow slightly.

As an Elder of the Dragon Clan, he naturally understood the importance of Zi Yan as the Dragon Emperor.

If Zi Yan were to be taken away by an outsider, it would be a huge loss for the Dragon Clan!

No!!!

This must not be allowed to happen.

“Elder Zhu Shang, no need for such formalities!”

Seeing this, Zi Yan quickly withdrew her small hand, put on a serious expression, and said politely.

Although Zi Yan was usually lively and cute, in front of this Elder, she behaved with extreme respect.

Actually, this was understandable.

Who didn't know that Elder Zhu Shang, currently the strongest existence on Dragon Island, had already reached the astonishing Realm of an Eight Star Dou Sheng?

“Brother Gu Fei, this is Elder Zhu Shang of my clan!”

Then, Zi Yan turned to Gu Fei and introduced him.

“Junior greets Elder Zhu Shang!”

Upon hearing this, Gu Fei immediately stepped forward and respectfully cupped his hands.

No matter what, the proper etiquette must be observed.

Although Gu Fei was now a Six-Star Dou Sheng powerhouse, he appeared neither humble nor arrogant when facing Zhu Shang, who had a higher cultivation and was older.

However, while saluting, Gu Fei also quietly released his Qi, demonstrating the strength of a Six-Star Dou Sheng.

Zhu Shang felt Gu Fei's Qi, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

“You are Gu Fei of the Ancient Race, whom the Dragon Emperor often speaks of; truly extraordinary!”

Zhu Shang scrutinized Gu Fei from head to toe, then slowly spoke.

These words were both an affirmation of Gu Fei and a hint of a test.

Zhu Shang knew very well that in this world where the strong prey on the weak, strength was the most important criterion for measuring a person's worth.

In this world, no Dao could overcome the fist of a strong person.

If Gu Fei were just an ordinary person, or had low cultivation, these top powerhouses of the Dragon Clan would probably not give him a good look. But the strength of a Six-Star Dou Sheng was enough to make Zhu Shang look at Gu Fei with new respect.

Although human nature is cruel,

There's no other way!

But this is the truth!

“I never thought that the Nine-Colored Sky Swallowing Python would reappear in the world.”

Then, Zhu Shang's gaze fell on Caier. A hint of surprise flashed in his cloudy old eyes as he sighed with emotion.

“I was fortunate enough to obtain a nine-colored gemstone.”

Caier smiled slightly upon hearing this, responding modestly.

In the following time, Gu Fei and Caier, accompanied by Zi Yan, stayed on Dragon Island for a period. They visited various scenic spots on Dragon Island, met many Dragon Clan powerhouses, and also got acquainted with the few top Dragon Clan powerhouses who had just returned.

During this time, Gu Fei gained a deeper understanding of the Dragon Clan's heritage.

Those powerhouses who returned from the Void Realm each possessed astonishing strength and rich experience.

Their return undoubtedly caused the Dragon Clan's strength to surge, making it a superpower comparable to the Ancient Race… “I'm going to the Void Lightning Pool!”

A few days later, Gu Fei suddenly said to Zi Yan.

Zi Yan was stunned upon hearing this, then remembered Gu Fei's past experience in the Void Lightning Pool and couldn't help but feel a little worried. But on second thought, with Gu Fei's current strength, those Black Demon Lightning were probably no longer a threat.

“Be careful.”

So, Zi Yan nodded, softly cautioning him.

Gu Fei smiled and waved his hand, his figure flashing, and he disappeared from his original spot.

Not long after, Gu Fei arrived above the Void Lightning Pool.

Looking out, he saw an endless sea of lightning churning beneath his feet.

Countless bolts of lightning roared like mad Dragons, a spectacular sight.

Compared to back then, the current Gu Fei appeared much more composed and calm when facing the grand and imposing Void Lightning Pool.

His figure glided unhurriedly over the Void Lightning Pool. Those wildly flashing giant bolts of lightning would suddenly halt when they approached him within dozens of feet, then frantically dart away.

Clearly, these lightning bolts had sensed the power within Gu Fei that made them fear.

Along the way, Gu Fei did not stop for a moment, heading straight for the deepest part of the Void Lightning Pool.

With the Purification Lotus Demon Flame protecting him, even those fierce lightning forces dared not approach easily. This scene undoubtedly confirmed that the Purification Lotus Demon Flame's ranking on the strange fire ranking list was not just for show.

Before long, Gu Fei arrived at the depths of the Void Lightning Pool. Here, he saw vast stretches of Black Demon Lightning. These Black Demon Lightning were even more violent than ordinary lightning, each bolt containing astonishing destructive power.

Gu Fei's appearance immediately caused these Black Demon Lightning to riot. In an instant, dozens of Black Demon Lightning wildly attacked him, each strike comparable to the full power of a One-Star Dou Sheng.

Such terrifying power, even a Two-Star or even Three-Star Dou Sheng powerhouse would likely feel apprehension if they encountered it.

However, for the current Gu Fei,

Unless it was a barrage of ten thousand lightning bolts!

Otherwise, it wouldn't pose much of a threat. (End of chapter)
