Chapter 209: Your Emperor Has Returned!
"The Gu Clan, you're really something, so brazen!"
The remaining elder of the Hun Clan uttered these words with extreme hatred before silently taking the bodies of Hun Ya, Hun Li, and Hun Xia and leaving.
"It seems that the Hun Clan won't let this go easily!"
"This situation could have been either big or small, but now it's definitely blown up. Resolving it won't be so simple anymore..."
The other ancient clans began to discuss among themselves, speculating whether this incident would lead to a war between the Hun Clan and the Gu Clan.
"Young Master Gu Fei must have had a purpose for acting this way..."
Huo Zhi wondered internally. Gu Fei clearly had better ways to handle the situation but intentionally provoked conflict between the two clans.
Was this just his decision, or was it the will of the entire Gu Clan?
Gu Fei paid no attention to the voices around him. He bowed slightly to Gu Nanhai and then descended to where Xiao Yi Xian was.
"Daddy!"
"Daddy!"
The two children immediately ran to Gu Fei, each grabbing one of his hands. They hadn't seen him in six months and had missed him dearly.
"Let's go home!"
Gu Fei took the children by the hand and walked toward the mountain with Xiao Yi Xian, Cai Lin, Zi Yan, and Qing Lin, completely unconcerned with the earlier events.
"Xian Yue, Wu Shuang, I'm going back to the Ling Realm soon. I'll visit you again when I have time!"
On the way back, the little girl from the Ling Clan, Ling Xi, approached to bid farewell to the two little ones.
She had stayed in the Gu Realm for half a year and had formed a deep friendship with Xian Yue and Wu Shuang.
"Sister Ling Xi, you're leaving?"
"Can't you stay a little longer?"
Xian Yue and Wu Shuang were reluctant to see her go.
Both children understood that if they parted now, they might not see each other again for years, maybe even decades.
"Xi'er, it's time to go!"
On the other side, a beautiful woman from the Ling Clan approached, urging Ling Xi to leave. "Why not let Ling Xi stay in the Gu Clan for a few years? I can take her as a nominal disciple!"
Gu Fei suddenly spoke up.
"Is that... appropriate?"
Hun Clan!"
Gu Nanhai brought up another matter.
"It seems the Hun Clan covets that ancient jade. But without all the pieces, it's useless."
"Even if they obtain the Xiao Clan's piece, it won't be of much use!"
Gu Dao sighed, clearly unaware that the Hun Clan coveted all the pieces, not just the Xiao
Clan's.
"Since you promised the Xiao Clan descendant, mention this when the Soul Clan comes asking
for explanations."
...
"Brother Gu Fei, you promised to come back to Ancient Dragon Island with me!"
Three days later, on Gu Fei's mountain peak, Zi Yan brought up the matter again.
"Don't worry, I remember!"
Gu Fei smiled and reassured her. This time, he wasn't planning to delay any longer. With his current strength, he could provide significant help to Zi Yan.
He only needed to suppress the three Dragon Kings from attacking, which shouldn't be too difficult. If everything went smoothly, the Northern Dragon King wouldn't have the chance to contact the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan.
Soon Gu Fei and Zi Yan quietly left the Gu Realm, just as before.
Once they left, Zi Yan quickly established a spatial tunnel leading to Ancient Dragon Island.
After traveling for some time, a faint light appeared ahead. The dull silver surroundings gave
way to lush green mountains, filling Gu Fei's vision.
The land before him, though vast, would be more accurately described as an island.
This island was massive, and above it, a faint silver bowl-shaped barrier hung down,
enveloping the entire island while the surroundings were pitch black.
The arrival of Zi Yan and Gu Fei was immediately sensed by the dragon experts on the island.
Several figures flew out from the island.
The closer they got, the stronger the Emperor's aura emanated from Zi Yan.
"I've returned!"
Zi Yan unfurled her Phoenix wings and flew directly to the island's sky.
