Chapter 195: Xiao Yan, do you really not have the Ancient Jade?
On the mountain peak, Gu Fei, Xiao Yixian, and Cai'er sat quietly in a pavilion, enjoying the night view.
On the other side, the two little ones, Xianle and Wushuang, were playing with their new friend Ling Xi; although Ling Xi was twelve years old, she was still able to get along well with the two little ones.
"Husband, in two more days, it will be time for the Heavenly Tomb to open. By then, you will have to go into seclusion for a long time again..."
In the pavilion, Xiao Yixian suddenly brought up the opening of the Heavenly Tomb space in two days.
Over these years, the frequency of Gu Fei's seclusions had increased, and the duration had also grown longer.
And every time Gu Fei went into seclusion, Xiao Yixian would feel a sense of emptiness in her heart.
"This seclusion won't take very long!"
"Every time the Heavenly Tomb opens, although three years pass for those inside, only half a year passes in the outside world..."
Gu Fei also knew that Xiao Yixian was reluctant to part with him, but in order to deal with the Soul Clan in the future, Gu Fei had to seize the time to improve.
And for a heaven-gifted talent like Gu Fei, the extra two and a half years gained from entering the Heavenly Tomb were quite important.
"Mm, I hope that this time, Husband, you will be able to advance again..." Xiao Yixian nodded.
Although she hoped that Gu Fei could stay by her and the children's side for a long time.
She could also understand Gu Fei!
"Husband, when you saw Ling Xi last night, what exactly were you thinking of?"
At this moment, Cai'er suddenly asked a question that had been hidden in her heart.
"These matters, I cannot explain them too clearly to you for the time being!"
"I can only say that my reaction at the time was simply because Ling Xi comes from the Spirit Clan!"
Gu Fei shook his head and said.
Currently, the Spirit Clan had not yet been wiped out by the Soul Clan, so naturally, some things were not suitable to be said aloud.
"Listening to Husband's meaning, is it because you were surprised that someone from the Spirit Clan came to the Ancient Realm?"
"Could it be because the Spirit Clan and the Ancient Clan have a poor relationship and rarely interact? This explanation doesn't seem to hold up!"
"Or perhaps, Husband, you felt that the Spirit Clan originally wouldn't have been able to come to the Ancient Realm due to some matters, but they came in the end!"
Medusa was very clever; based on this sentence from Gu Fei and his previous reaction, she immediately guessed some things.
"Hehe, Cai'er, you are truly very clever; you were almost about to say the answer!"
Gu Fei smiled slightly.
Cai'er also knew that under normal circumstances, Gu Fei would not hide things from her; there must be some hidden difficulties, so she did not continue to press him.
"Master, someone at the foot of the mountain requests to see you! They say they have come to thank the Master!"
Just at this moment, the Lion King hurried from the mountainside to the peak to report to Gu Fei.
"Let them come over!"
Gu Fei's soul power had now entered the Heavenly Realm Great Perfection, and he had long since sensed the arrival of Yao Chen, Venerable Feng, and the others.
"Greetings, Young Master Gu Fei!"
Before long, Yao Chen, Venerable Feng, and Xiao Yan arrived outside the pavilion.
"It seems you have already been able to adapt to this new body!"
Looking at Yao Chen, Gu Fei replied.
This sentence was also a hint to Yao Chen.
"This old man has come specifically this time to thank Young Master Gu Fei for his kindness!"
Hearing this, Yao Chen stopped wasting words.
He lightly tapped his finger on a pitch-black ring, and a cluster of forest-white flames rose up from it, then hovered in front of Yao Chen.
It was none other than the Bone Chilling Flame!
Next, Yao Chen lightly tapped his finger on that cluster of Bone Chilling Flame.
The latter immediately let out a violent tremor; after a long while, the trembling stopped, and a trace of paleness appeared on Yao Chen's face.
"Young Master Gu Fei, the Soul Imprint within the Bone Chilling Flame has been cleared by me!"
"However, this Bone Chilling Flame has been refined by me for many years; even though the Soul Imprint has been removed, it will still have quite a bit of resistance!"
Yao Chen handed the Bone Chilling Flame toward Gu Fei and kindly reminded him.
Beside him, Xiao Yan looked at the forest-white flame in Yao Lao's hand, his heart filled with many emotions.
This Bone Chilling Flame should be considered the thing that had accompanied his teacher the longest, yet now, it had been personally wiped of its Soul Imprint by his teacher.
"Teacher must also be very reluctant to part with the Bone Chilling Flame in his heart... However, compared to Teacher being able to be reborn this time, these external Exotic Fire objects are nothing!"
Xiao Yan sighed in his heart.
"Mm!"
Gu Fei nodded slightly, took the forest-white flame, and then planted a Soul Imprint into it, sending it into his brow to nurture it.
The Bone Chilling Flame was different from other Exotic Fires; this kind of flame gave people an extremely cold feeling, but hidden within that coldness was an extremely violent, scorching power.
The two opposing forces were perfectly fused together, making one have to marvel at the wonders of this world.
"If there is nothing else, the three of you may please yourselves!"
After accepting the Bone Chilling Flame, Gu Fei issued an order to leave to Yao Chen and the others; he did not want to have too much interaction with these people, as this incident was merely a transaction.
"This old man takes his leave!"
Yao Lao cupped his hands in thanks once more, then turned and prepared to leave this place.
Just at this moment, Gu Fei sensed that several seniors from the clan had descended here.
"Wait!"
Amidst the twisting space, several Gu Clan Elders led by Gu Nanhai appeared outside the pavilion and called out to Yao Chen's group.
However, their gazes were not on Yao Chen, but on Xiao Yan beside him.
"Elder Nanhai, what brings you all to Gu Fei's place?"
Gu Fei stood up to greet everyone.
"Haha, kid Gu Fei, this time, the old man is not here to see you, but for this descendant of the Xiao Clan..."
Gu Nanhai replied to Gu Fei with a smile, then turned his gaze toward Xiao Yan: "You must be Xiao Yan, right?"
"This junior is indeed Xiao Yan!"
Although the aura of Gu Nanhai and the others was incomparably powerful, Xiao Yan remained neither humble nor pushy, standing with his back straight.
However, he was also very puzzled in his heart.
He did not understand why such powerful figures from the Ancient Clan would come specifically to find him.
If they wanted to deal with him for some reason, they would absolutely not dispatch such powerful figures.
"Xiao Yan, you must know by now that you are a descendant of the Ancient Xiao Clan, right!"
"Mm!"
Hearing this topic, Xiao Yan nodded with a very serious expression.
"Then, I wonder, does your Xiao family possess a peculiar Ancient Jade?"
Gu Nanhai continued to ask.
"Ancient Jade?"
Hearing this, Xiao Yan was surprised in his heart, and immediately thought of the Patriarch Jade Tablet that the Great Elder had given him when he left home.
Could it be that the people of the Ancient Clan want to obtain the Patriarch Jade Tablet of my Xiao family?
"My Xiao family does not have any peculiar Ancient Jade..."
Out of caution, Xiao Yan did not tell the truth, even though that Ancient Jade was right on his person.
"Do you really not have the Ancient Jade on you?"
Just at this moment, Gu Fei suddenly spoke up.
With the Emotion System, there were few people in this world who could deceive Gu Fei.
【Xiao Yan feels hesitation, plus panic and nervousness, Emotion Value +200】
Through the Emotion Value notification, Gu Fei concluded that Xiao Yan was carrying that Ancient Jade on him.
The second update is a bit late, but the extra update promised for today will definitely be done!
