Chapter 169: Xun Er: His child can already fly through the air?

"If I encounter someone with Half-Saint cultivation like Lei Dong again, I should be able to easily suppress him with my soul power alone!"

Gu Fei murmured to himself, then slowly stood up and turned his gaze toward Zi Yan.

Gu Fei was very grateful to Zi Yan.

Because, for these past six months, Zi Yan had stayed by his side without taking a single step away.

She had completely changed from her usual restless habits.

"Brother Gu Fei, if you had stayed any longer, I really wouldn't have been able to stand it!"

Just at this moment, a look of resentment finally appeared on Zi Yan's pretty face, and she began to complain.

Waiting for such a long time was indeed quite difficult for her to endure.

"Hehe, I know. You've worked hard during this time. After we return to the Ancient Realm this time, I will definitely reward you properly!"

Gu Fei soothed Zi Yan's mood.

"No, I want the reward now!"

Hearing Gu Fei's words, Zi Yan pouted and said.

"Alright..."

"Tell me, what reward do you want? As long as I can do it, I will satisfy you!"

Gu Fei said with a smile.

"Any reward will do?"

Hearing Gu Fei's guarantee, Zi Yan's eyes suddenly lit up, and she carefully sized up Gu Fei.

"Could this girl be wanting..."

Gu Fei's heart tightened, and immediately after, the Emotion Value income from the system notification confirmed what Zi Yan was thinking.

【Zi Yan has developed feelings of admiration and possessiveness, Emotion Value +100】

"Possessiveness?"

"Are her emotions this intense?"

Hearing the notification, Gu Fei was stunned for a moment.

In fact, Gu Fei had always known about Zi Yan's feelings, but neither side had taken the initiative to break through this layer of window paper.

The most overstepping thing Zi Yan had done was to have Xiao Xianle call her 'Auntie'.

"Forget it, I haven't decided yet. Let's talk about it when I have. Remember, you owe me a reward!" Meeting Gu Fei's gaze, Zi Yan ultimately backed down and didn't say it.

"Then let's go back to the Ancient Realm first. We've been out for long enough this time..."

Gu Fei also let out a sigh of relief.

Soon, the two returned to the Ancient Realm very low-key, just as they had when they left.

"Daddy, you've finally come out of seclusion!"

On the mountain peak, after seeing Gu Fei return, Xiao Xianle was incredibly excited and quickly ran to Gu Fei: "Hug!"

Gu Fei picked up Xiao Xianle in one motion.

Behind Xiao Xianle, Xiao Yixian and Cai'er stood side by side.

Both women had looks of joy in their eyes.

Beside Cai'er, there was also a toddler, carved from pink jade, toddling along.

"Wushuang, he is your daddy!"

Cai'er took light steps, her jade hand holding Wushuang as she slowly walked to Gu Fei.

Wushuang raised his head, his dark, bright eyes curiously sizing up Gu Fei.

Although Wushuang was young and had only just begun to remember things, because of the feeling of being connected by blood to Gu Fei, he smiled involuntarily, and his childish voice rang out.

"Hehe... Da... Daddy!"

"Haha, Wushuang can talk now!"

Listening to the childish voice emitted by the child, Gu Fei's heart was about to melt.

He reached out and picked up Wushuang as well.

Holding one child in each arm with his beloved wives by his side, he could be said to be enjoying the happiness of family life to the fullest.

"Auntie Zi Yan, you've finally come out of seclusion too. I've missed you so much during this time!"

Xiao Xianle leaned her head on Gu Fei's shoulder, noticed Zi Yan walking over from behind, and hurriedly reached out to greet her. Hearing Xiao Xianle's form of address for Zi Yan, Xiao Yixian and Cai'er were not surprised at all.

Because during this time, besides looking for Daddy, Xiao Xianle often said she wanted to find her auntie.

Xiao Yixian and Cai'er also understood Zi Yan's feelings for Gu Fei; at this moment, seeing Zi Yan's blushing face, they did not expose her.

With Gu Fei and Zi Yan's return, the mountain peak became lively once again.

While accompanying his family, Gu Fei began to continue attempting to refine the Ninth Grade Medicinal Pill.

After consuming a large amount of Emotion Value, Gu Fei's alchemy level had already climbed to the level of being able to refine a Nine-Rank Precious Pill.

And this time, his soul power had stepped into the Heavenly Realm Great Perfection, which pushed the conditions to the maximum.

Under these prerequisites, the probability of him refining a Nine-Rank Precious Pill increased significantly.

The time spent refining medicine was dull and long.

Gu Fei was not completely immersed in it.

Occasionally, he would also take time to look after the children, fulfilling his responsibilities as a father.

Soon, another year or so passed.

Wushuang, who was still toddling before, was now two years old, and he could already spontaneously control the power within his body.

"Wushuang, you are amazing!"

As the older sister, Xiao Xianle was so happy that she clapped her hands upon seeing that her younger brother Wushuang was already able to stand in the void at such a young age.

"Haha, sister, let me take you flying together!"

Wushuang reached out his little hand to pull Xiao Xianle into the air; although his cultivation had reached the Dou Zong realm, his temperament was still like that of a child.

"What is this?"

"How old are they? They can already fly? And without Dou Qi Wings?"

Just at this moment, in the sky opposite the mountain peak where Gu Fei was, a look of deep astonishment appeared on the pretty face of a green-clad figure.

The person who arrived was none other than Xun Er; for the past two years, every time she finished her cultivation, she would come here to gaze from afar at the mountain peak where Gu Fei resided.

And this time, she happened to see the two adorable children playing as they flew in the sky.

For a moment, many emotions welled up in Xun Er's heart, causing her to fall into memories.

Suddenly, a strange ripple emanated from the top of the mountain peak where Gu Fei was.

"Ah! I feel like I've lost control!"

"Oh no, we're going to fall!"

Under the influence of that strange ripple, the two-year-old Wushuang suddenly could not control the power within his body, and he fell toward the ground while carrying his sister Xiao Xianle.

"Be careful!"

Seeing this scene, Xun Er's heart tightened, and she subconsciously wanted to go over to save them.

However, Xiao Yixian and Cai'er appeared even faster.

"Xiao Xianle, Wushuang, stop playing for now!"

The two women each took action to catch the children, and then their gazes turned toward the location where Gu Fei was in seclusion.

That strange ripple from just a moment ago had indeed emanated from the place where Gu Fei was in seclusion.

"What happened?"

Zi Yan and Qing Lin also appeared beside Cai'er and the other woman, their gazes filled with astonishment.

"Could it be that Brother Gu Fei is finally about to succeed?" Zi Yan seemed to have thought of something.

The next moment, this world seemed to darken all at once.

In the sky, clouds rapidly gathered from all directions.

The clouds that gathered this time.

Were not black, but an extremely deep, dark color.

Dark clouds filled the sky; there was no sound of thunder coming from within them, but when one's gaze rested upon those dark clouds—so deep that they seemed to suck one's vision in—it felt as if even the soul was trembling slightly at this moment.

"It's so dark!"

As the sky turned dark, the two little ones, Xiao Xianle and Wushuang, did not dare to continue looking up at the sky.
