Chapter 11: Heading to the Northwest Continent!

The Northwest Continent has a large number of people with high fortune.

If one could trigger emotional changes in those people of fortune over in the Northwest Continent...

Gu Fei narrowed his eyes; that would be much better than staying in the Ancient Realm.

Moreover, with his current strength, he has enough to gain a foothold in the Northwest Continent.

The Northwest Continent is barren and resources are scarce, so it is generally difficult to produce experts there.

Although there are top-tier figures, when it comes to overall strength, it is completely incomparable to the Eastern Region.

Not to mention Gu Fei's strength, the mere ability to refine a Seventh-Grade Medicinal Pill alone would be enough for him to be treated as an honored guest by many great families.

After all, a Seventh-Grade Medicinal Pill is not something one sees everywhere in the entire Northwest Continent.

Since he has decided to leave, Gu Fei must prepare himself.

He has always avoided fighting unprepared battles; although he is confident in his own strength, Gu Fei has never liked to be arrogant.

It is better to make sufficient preparations.

The Ancient Realm has abundant cultivation resources and rare medicinal herbs; it would be a pity if Gu Fei did not make use of them.

By virtue of his status and the formidable strength recognized by everyone in the younger generation, many resources are tilted toward Gu Fei during distribution.

Not to mention that he also has a grandfather who is the Black Annihilation King.

There were still many precious medicinal herbs left over from the last time he refined a Seventh-Grade Medicinal Pill, and Gu Fei collected them all.

He also brought along many cultivation resources, all of which he stuffed into his Storage Ring.

For the past few days, Gu Fei has been a bit flustered while busy with these resources.

When he finally took a break, he remembered that he had forgotten to say goodbye to his grandfather, Gu Lie.

Walking to the door at a leisurely pace, Gu Fei raised his hand to knock.

After a moment, Gu Lie opened the door and gave a faint smile upon seeing his grandson, who was nowhere to be found all day.

Although he is Gu Fei's grandfather, his appearance is not very old.

On the contrary, Gu Lie has a handsome face and a straight figure; he looks to be in his thirties or forties, with eyes that emit an inconspicuous light.

There are no fluctuations of Dou Qi on Gu Lie's body, but Gu Fei knows that his grandfather does not act easily, but when he does, it inevitably leads to bloodshed.

If anyone dares to underestimate him because of his appearance, then that person is finished.

"Grandfather, I intend to go out and travel; staying in the Ancient Realm all the time, I have no way to become stronger."

Gu Fei simply spoke directly, as Gu Lie understands him best.

Gu Lie had long since learned of the news that Gu Fei and Xun Er had separated; although he did not deliberately go to find Gu Fei, he knew that his grandson might be in a bad mood right now.

Even if Gu Fei appeared lighthearted and indifferent.

But he, as a grandfather, remembers clearly how full of love Gu Fei was when he previously sought to marry Xun Er.

At that time, Gu Yuan gave his consent, and Gu Fei was so happy he couldn't stop smiling all day; Gu Lie had laughed at him for quite a while.

Now, Gu Fei's temperament has become much more steady, and there are no obvious fluctuations in his emotions.

Gu Lie does not know if this is good or bad; he only wants his grandson to be healthy and happy.

Since Gu Fei took the initiative to suggest going out, it is good for him to go out and walk around.

Gu Lie is not particularly concerned about whether Gu Fei's strength can improve.

In his view, his grandson is outstanding enough and has exceptional talent; his strength will surely climb to the peak in the future, and he is not in a rush for this bit of time.

What Gu Lie hopes for is that Gu Fei can be a bit happier.

Moreover, Gu Fei has always been someone with his own ideas.

Since he has brought it up, Gu Lie naturally agreed readily.

He even took out many of his best hidden treasures and a large pile of cultivation resources, stuffing them all to Gu Fei.

Gu Fei was left between laughter and tears, and had no choice but to accept them all.

After he packed everything up, he simply said goodbye to Gu Lie and left the Ancient Realm in a low-profile manner.

Gu Fei told no one except Gu Lie.

But he is a prominent figure in the Ancient Realm; once he is not seen for a few days, there will always be clever people who can guess that Gu Fei has left the Ancient Realm.

However, these are matters for later.

At this time, Gu Fei left the Ancient Realm, entered the Ancient Holy City, and had already arrived in the Eastern Region.

The Ancient Holy City is where the passage connecting the Ancient Realm and the outside world is located; as soon as he stepped out of the space, he felt one scorching gaze after another.

The Ancient Holy City strictly forbids outsiders from entering, and most of those guarding it are experts of the Ancient Clan.

And these experts all recognize Gu Fei; he is the strongest person of the younger generation.

But they are well-trained and did not come over to strike up a conversation.

They just stood where they were, looking at Gu Fei with eyes of admiration for the strong.

Gu Fei paused for a moment, then walked toward the gate of the Ancient Holy City.

The guards at the gate greeted him respectfully and then stepped aside to let him out.

If one were to say that the Ancient Holy City has the loudest name in the Eastern Region, then the Ancient Realm is the supreme ruler of the entire Eastern Region.

The Eastern Region of the Central Plains is vast and filled with all kinds of people; the easiest way to get by here is to have a subordinate force of the Ancient Clan hanging over one's head.

There are even many people in the Eastern Region who view the people of the Ancient Clan as gods and worship them crazily.

This fanatical attitude is astonishing, but it also allows one to glimpse just how lofty the status of the Ancient Clan is in the Eastern Region.

If Gu Fei chose to develop in the Eastern Region, it would be like a fish in water, and nothing could be smoother.

It is just that, although the Eastern Region is good, it is not the place where Gu Fei wants to train.

The place he is going to is the rather barren Northwest Continent.

Here, Gu Fei has already embarked on the journey to the Northwest Continent.

He, however, received an inexplicable system notification.

【Xun Er feels regret, Emotion Value +300】

It turned out that on the other side, news of Gu Fei leaving the Ancient Realm had spread in secret, and upon learning of this, Xun Er felt even more regret in her heart.

But there were no further changes after this notification, and Gu Fei's gaze remained indifferent; he did not care.

Within the Ancient Realm, although Xun Er felt regret, she seemed even more worried about the safety of her Brother Xiao Yan.

After all, ever since Gu Yao sent people to try and kill Xiao Yan, and he was severely injured and went missing, Xun Er had not seen Xiao Yan even once.

Xun Er persuaded herself in her heart that her trip to the Northwest Continent this time was to search for Brother Xiao Yan.

It was definitely not because Gu Fei had also gone there.

After convincing herself, she planned to quietly leave the Ancient Realm and head to the Northwest Continent.

Inside the Ancient Realm.

Xun Er left quietly that day, and her figure was seen by quite a few people.

Although she wanted to sneak away, and with her strength she could have managed to avoid being discovered by the vast majority of people.

However, because Xun Er was feeling restless and distracted while preparing to leave, she was discovered by some people to have already left the Ancient Realm.

Because Gu Fei and Xun Er, these two most gifted youths of the current generation, had left one after the other, many people felt deeply moved.

"Do you think that Brother Gu Fei and Miss Xun Er both leaving the Ancient Realm is because they want to seek out some opportunities?"

"Even a peerless genius like Brother Gu Fei has left; if we want to become stronger, is it better to stay in the Ancient Realm or follow in his footsteps and leave as well?"

The people of the Ancient Clan have always been powerful, but they also admire strength all the more.

They will exhaust every means to become stronger, but they will not use such base methods.
