Chapter 220: The Kids Are Grown, I Can Go Out and Relax!
"Do the two elders still think the Hall of Souls is just a minor force?" Gu Fei asked seriously. "No, regardless of what the Soul Hall's ultimate goal is, just their act of slaughtering countless innocent lives is reason enough to destroy them completely!" Gu Xiong shook his head. "Such an evil force cannot be allowed to exist in the world!"
He couldn't tolerate such indiscriminate killing of the innocent.
"What should we do with the soul essence?" Gu Xiong continued.
"Even though these things were created by evil means, they have already formed. It would be a waste to discard them." he said. "Gu Fei, you're an alchemist. Absorbing these soul essences will greatly enhance your soul power..."
Gu Xiong and Gu Nanhai both decided that Gu Fei should handle the soul essence.
"Alright!" Gu Fei nodded without hesitation. He indeed needed these to strengthen his soul power.
However, to advance to the God Soul Realm, merely relying on these soul essences would be far from enough; it would take accumulation over time.
After collecting the soul essence, Gu Fei and the others didn't linger. They immediately returned to the Gu Realm.
This incident made many of the higher-ups in the Gu Clan start taking the Hall of Souls seriously.
...
"Damn it..." Not long after Gu Fei and the others left the ruins of the Earth Hall, a black figure arrived.
This person was clad in a black robe, with a face that bore no distinctive features-ordinary and unremarkable, like a common person. His hands, which extended from his sleeves, were rough.
However, this seemingly ordinary figure was infamous in the Central Plains.
This person was none other than the Hall Master of the Hall of Souls, Hun Miesheng.
The entire Soul Hall had grown to its current size under his leadership.
But in just a few years, two of the three major halls- Earth Hall and Man Hall- had been destroyed.
The losses to the Soul Hall were immeasurable, with most of its powerful members dead.
Moreover, the soul essence accumulated over a century had been stolen, severely impacting the Hun Clan's grand plans.
"The killers are from the Gu Clan!" Hun Miesheng looked down at the ruins from above. He noticed large characters formed by trenches in the ground, and his fists clenched tightly.
"The Gu Clan has gone too far!" The usually calm Hun Miesheng could no longer control his anger.
However, since his opponent was the Gu Clan, this was not something he could resolve on his
own.
...
nodded.
Since her last visit to the small valley in the North-Western region, she hadn't left the Gu Realm and had been busy raising the children.
Now that the kids were older and had playmates, she could finally take some time to relax and go out with Gu Fei.
Soon, Gu Fei, Xiao Yi Xian, and Cai Lin left the Gu Realm, while the two children were left in the care of Qing Lin and Ling Xi.
...
The location of the Spatial Trade Fair was in a desolate desert between the northern and southern regions of the Central Plains. Usually, the area was plagued by sandstorms, leaving
it uninhabitable.
No one would ever guess that this place, that even wild beasts avoided, would host the most prestigious trade fair in the Central Plains.
"Whoosh!"
Outside the desert, in the clear sky, the sound of something swiftly cutting through the air
suddenly rang out.
"Is this the place?" Xiao Yi Xian asked in surprise as she looked at the sandstorm-ravaged
desert ahead.
"It should be!" Gu Fei smiled and nodded, sensing the presence of many powerful figures
nearby.
Then, Gu Fei began moving through the air toward the depths of the desert.
As they moved, the howling sandstorm, which would typically be terrifying to ordinary
people, dissipated within a hundred meters of their bodies. Behind Gu Fei, Cai Lin and Xiao Yi
Xian followed closely.
The sandstorm that would have been a formidable obstacle to others posed no challenge to
them.
Before long, the three of them arrived at the heart of the desert and climbed a steep sand
dune.
In front of them, at the hollow section of the towering dune, was a massive black space portal, about a hundred meters wide, slowly rotating. A strong suction force spread from it. "Let's go in..." Gu Fei held the hands of Cai Lin and Xiao Yi Xian, and without hesitation, they rushed into the black hole.
