Chapter 194: Want to Kill Me? Let's See If You Can Leave Alive!
"In my opinion, there's nothing unfortunate about it!"
"Back then, it was Young Master Gu Fei who couldn't tolerate certain things, so he chose to divorce!"
"And those things were caused by Miss Xun'er herself. She went too far!"
"If it weren't for that, who would be willing to divorce someone as beautiful and talented as Miss Xun'er?"
"Exactly. I've heard that this time, even though Xiao Yan came to the Gu Realm, Miss Xun'er still didn't know where to draw the line. How can she hope to win him back?"
"They're right. I really should keep some distance from Xiao Yan so that Gu Fei doesn't misunderstand."
Feeling embarrassed by the surrounding conversation, Xun'er said nothing. Although many of their words were sarcastic, they weren't entirely baseless. Xun'er quietly agreed with some of them and silently returned to her previous spot.
"How can these people say such things?"
Seeing this, Xiao Yan was furious. Xun'er and Gu Fei had mutually agreed to part ways. How did it turn into Gu Fei unilaterally divorcing her in these people's mouths?
"Xun'er, they're being too harsh!"
"How can they say such things about you?"
The next moment, Xiao Yan stood up and walked over to Xun'er, trying to comfort her. "It's alright, I know what I'm doing..."
Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Xun'er instinctively waved her hand, signaling him to stop.
For the first time, Xiao Yan saw a look of irritation on Xun'er's face directed at him. That look hurt Xiao Yan deeply, more so than the mockery of others. He could only walk away quietly.
On the high platform, Gu Fei reached out and touched the star disk. In an instant, nine stars appeared on the disk. Shortly after, a golden light emerged and quickly condensed into a dazzling golden star, far more brilliant than the one from Xun'er's previous test.
After the tenth star appeared, there seemed to be another light flickering nearby. However, at that moment, the star disk suddenly shattered, and no one noticed that scene.
"My goodness, another tenth-grade bloodline!"
"And the tenth star in Young Master Gu Fei's test is obviously much brighter than Miss Xun'er's!"
"This means that Young Master Gu Fei's bloodline grade is even higher than Miss Xun'er's!"
As the golden star appeared, nearly everyone in the square began to lose their composure. Two people with divine-grade bloodlines emerging in the same era, each stronger than the last-what would happen when they grew stronger?
"Haha, truly the heavens bless our Gu Clan!"
The elder testing Gu Fei, whose strength had reached the level of a Dou Saint, found his heart racing uncontrollably at this moment.
"In a few years, he might surpass us old guys..."
In the void, the ancient Gu Clan powerhouses who had been secretly observing the coming- of-age ceremony laughed and then departed after seeing Gu Fei obtain the rainbow-colored
clan marking.
"Let's go. Xun'er and Gu Fei have both finished their bloodline tests. There's nothing else
worth seeing!"
Many people in the square also began to leave.
"I shouldn't have come to this event!" Xiao Yan, feeling dejected, stood up and walked out of
the square. He had already decided that once Yao Lao woke up, he would leave the Gu Realm immediately.
...
Time flew by, and night fell.
During this time, Xuan Kongzi had been waiting outside a grand hall.
Suddenly, he sensed the seal inside the hall showing signs of weakening.
"The seal is loosening-looks like the old man is waking up!" Xuan Kongzi's face lit up with
joy.
The next moment, a familiar, elderly figure slowly walked out of the hall.
"Teacher!"
"Old man, you're finally alive!"
Seeing this elderly figure emerge, Xiao Yan and Feng Xian were both overjoyed.
Yao Lao's awakening, as the once-renowned "Number One" Alchemist in Central Plains,
would elevate the status of Falling Star Pavilion to a new level.
"This time, we really have to thank Young Master Gu Fei!"
After his resurrection, Yao Lao moved his new body slightly, then prepared to find Gu Fei to
fulfill the promised reward.
