322: Changes in the clan!

"Gu Fei, my young friend, is there something you need?" Lei Ying asked, a hint of curiosity on his rugged face.

"Seniors, I want to return to the Ancient World for a trip to see my family," Gu Fei said with a slight smile, getting straight to the point.

Hearing Gu Fei's words, Lei Ying and Yan Jin exchanged glances, a look of understanding flashing in their eyes.

Although Gu Fei was young, he was already a Clan Chief, bearing a heavy responsibility.

But now that the great war had just concluded, Gu Fei had been fighting desperately throughout this battle.

It was reasonable for him to rest.

"Understood, understood." Yan Jin nodded, a hint of approval in his crimson eyes.

"That's right."

"We'll notify you if anything comes up!" Lei Ying echoed, his sturdy body leaning slightly forward as he patted Gu Fei's shoulder.

Gu Fei hadn't expected the two Seniors to be so understanding.

One must know that, in the past, they were high and mighty existences; how could they be so amiable to a junior?

But now, Gu Fei had proven his worth with his strength!

Even these two were extremely polite to Gu Fei.

"Thank you both for your understanding."

"I'll be back very soon," Gu Fei said sincerely.

Lei Ying and Yan Jin nodded, watching Gu Fei depart.

Looking at his tall figure, a hint of relief flashed in both their eyes.

They knew that with such a Prodigy in the Gu Clan, its future would undoubtedly be even more glorious.

After leaving the main tent, Gu Fei didn't delay, immediately soaring into the sky.

Meanwhile, in the Ancient World.

"Elder Gu Yang, I never thought you would dare to lay a hand on the Young Clan Leader's children!" An angry roar echoed across the Ancient World.

Countless black-armored powerhouses were seen streaking across the sky, their target none other than a white-haired old man.

That old man was none other than Gu Yang, the guardian of the Gu Clan's ancestral hall.

It turned out that after Gu Yang learned of the Hun Clan's defeat, he harbored malicious intentions. He wanted to take the Gu Clan's Young Clan Leader's children to use as leverage, in exchange for his own benefits.

However, to his utter surprise, Caier stopped him.

Not only that, but Caier also injured him during their exchange. When the news spread, the entire Gu Clan was in an uproar, and countless powerhouses began to hunt Gu Yang.

"Damn it!" Gu Yang gritted his teeth, his face filled with anger and unwillingness.

His aged face was covered in cold sweat, clearly indicating he was not lightly injured.

At this moment, Gu Yang's speed was astonishingly fast.

He continuously weaved through the mountains of the Ancient World, shaking off the clansmen behind him.

"Don't let him escape!"

"Catch the traitor!" Roars of anger came from behind, with countless Black Annihilation Army powerhouses in hot pursuit.

Their eyes burned with furious flames, wishing they could tear Gu Yang limb from limb.

Gu Yang secretly cursed his luck.

He hadn't expected things to turn out this way.

He had originally thought that most of the Gu Clan's forces were sent to the allied army, leaving the clan's defenses relatively weak, allowing him to easily succeed.

Who knew he would encounter that troublesome Caier.

"Damn him!" Gu Yang cursed in a low voice, a hint of viciousness flashing in his eyes.

He knew very well that if he were caught, a fate worse than death awaited him.

A dense forest.

Gu Yang's eyes lit up, and he plunged into it without hesitation.

He knew the terrain of the Ancient World like the back of his hand, aware that this intricate forest was the best place to hide.

Indeed, after entering the forest, the sounds of his pursuers gradually faded.

Gu Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

But this fellow was clearly in a sorry state at the moment.

He knew this was only temporary safety.

Moreover, he had no way back this time!

"Gu Yang!" Xun'er appeared before Gu Yang.

Her beautiful face held a hint of disbelief, clearly not expecting the always-respected Gu Yang to commit such an act.

Seeing this, Gu Yang's face instantly turned pale.

He also hadn't expected to encounter Xun'er here.

One must know, encountering Xun'er here meant his whereabouts would be exposed!

"Xun'er, I actually—" Gu Yang tried to maintain his composure.

However, before he could finish his sentence, Xun'er interrupted him.

"No need to explain; your actions have already explained everything," Xun'er said coldly, a glint of coldness flashing in her beautiful eyes.

The next moment, Gu Yang waved his hand, and a dazzling flash of light swept across the entire area.

By the time Xun'er opened her eyes, Gu Yang was gone.

Just then, a commotion suddenly arose not far away.

Gu Lie, accompanied by a group of Gu Clan powerhouses, had arrived.

They instantly surrounded the entire area.

"Xun'er, the Ancient Sacred Mountain Range is now sealed. This Gu Yang certainly hasn't escaped."

"You lead the remaining Black Annihilation Army and ferret him out!" Gu Lie said in a deep voice, his gaze sweeping around.

Xun'er immediately nodded in agreement upon hearing this.

"Yes!" Xun'er respectfully replied.

"Everyone, split into small teams! Conduct a thorough search of the entire Ancient Sacred Mountain Range."

"We must find Gu Yang!" Xun'er ordered loudly, her voice clear and authoritative.

"Yes!" Countless Black Annihilation Army members responded in unison, their voices neat and orderly, their Aura astonishing.

With Xun'er's command, the entire Ancient Sacred Mountain Range instantly became a hive of activity.

Countless Black Annihilation Army members scattered like ants, beginning a comprehensive search.

These clansmen scoured mountains and ridges, leaving no corner unchecked.

They almost turned the entire Gu Clan upside down!

However, to everyone's surprise, Gu Yang seemed to have vanished into thin air.

This was understandable.

After all these years, Gu Yang was extremely familiar with the terrain of the entire Gu Clan.

Finding this fellow would indeed require some effort.

Meanwhile, in a mountain-top residence of the Gu Clan, Caier and Xiao Yi Xian were watching over Xian Le and Wushuang.

The two children slept peacefully, oblivious to everything happening outside.

"This damned Gu Yang, to dare lay hands on the children!" Caier said, gritting her teeth, angry flames flickering in her beautiful eyes.

"Don't worry, with us here, the children will be fine," Xiao Yi Xian gently patted Caier's shoulder, comforting her softly.

The two exchanged glances, a hint of determination flashing in their eyes. They knew that to protect the children, they were willing to give everything.

Just then, a commotion suddenly erupted outside.

"Elder Gu Yang, considering your meritorious service in guarding the ancestral hall, if you come out voluntarily and explain this matter, you might still receive a lighter punishment." Xun'er's voice echoed throughout the Ancient World. Her clear and pleasant voice carried a hint of persuasion, clearly hoping Gu Yang would show himself.

However, only silence answered her.

Gu Yang was not a member of the Gu Clan at all.

Hundreds of years ago, the real Gu Yang had already died.

The current Gu Yang was a member of the Hun Clan; how could he turn back?

"It's a pity Black Annihilation King wants to seal off the space of the Ancient Sacred Mountain Range, otherwise he would surely be found!"

"When the Clan Chief returns, no matter how deeply this Gu Yang hides, he won't escape the Clan Chief's grasp!" Some Gu Clan members whispered among themselves, their faces filled with anger. (End of Chapter)
