Chapter 198: The Heavenly Tomb Opens, the Killing Intent of Gu Yao!

"Xun Er..."

At this moment, Xiao Yan felt as if he had lost something very important.

The surrounding air seemed to have come to a standstill.

Xiao Yan could clearly hear the thumping of his own heartbeat.

"Sigh..."

"Xiao Yan, let's go!"

After a long while, Ling Ying walked over, patted Xiao Yan on the shoulder, and signaled for him to leave.

Xiao Yan walked down Xun Er's mountain peak as if he had lost his soul, and subsequently returned to his residence.

On the third day, when the first ray of morning light spilled down from the horizon, a strange atmosphere began to permeate the Ancient Saint Mountain Range.

"Today is the time for the Heavenly Tomb to open. It is a pity that only people from your Ancient Races are qualified to enter..."

Standing in front of the bamboo house, Xiao Yixian considerately tidied the clothes on Gu Fei's body.

Cai'er, bringing the two little ones Wushuang and Xianle, looked at Gu Fei with tenderness from the side.

After Xiao Yixian finished tidying Gu Fei's clothes, the group stood on the back of the Lion King.

"Brother Gu Fei, when you come out of the Heavenly Tomb, you must accompany me to Dragon Island..."

Arriving on the back of the Lion King, Zi Yan suddenly leaned close to Gu Fei's face; the two faces were less than a foot apart, and they could both feel each other's breath.

"Alright, I promise you!"

"Once I come out of the Heavenly Tomb, I will accompany you to Ancient Dragon Island and let you become the Empress as soon as possible!"

Gu Fei smiled. He had indeed dragged this matter out for many years; now, Zi Yan even showed signs of breaking through to a Five-Star Dou Sheng.

Returning to Dragon Island would be much safer.

"You are not allowed to lie again!"

Having received the result, Zi Yan then moved her face away from Gu Fei's.

Next, the Lion King vibrated its wings and flew toward the east of the Ancient Saint Mountain Range.

The location where the Heavenly Tomb opened was in the depths of the Ancient Saint Mountain Range, which was generally considered a forbidden area of the Ancient Clan and was not allowed to be entered under normal circumstances.

However, today, quite a few people had come to this forbidden area, including people from various Ancient Races and some major powers from the Central Plains.

On one of the mountain peaks, a veiled woman in red had been staring fixedly in that direction ever since Gu Fei arrived.

"Brother Gu Fei, if we enter the Heavenly Tomb separately, we will be randomly teleported apart. Why don't we enter together later!" Seeing Gu Fei come over, Xun Er immediately walked to Gu Fei's side, her face full of smiles.

However, faced with this invitation from Xun Er, Gu Fei ignored her entirely.

"Brother Gu Fei, the Heavenly Tomb is so dangerous. If I enter alone, I am afraid there might be accidents. Let's go in together; you can just treat it as protecting a member of the same clan!"

Seeing that Gu Fei did not pay attention to her, Xun Er switched to a coquettish tone. With her delicate and beautiful appearance, most people would likely be unable to resist and would agree.

This scene left Cai'er and Xiao Yixian, who were beside Gu Fei, feeling speechless.

They sighed inwardly at how truly strong Xun Er's mental fortitude was.

"Haha, you woman are really too shameless!"

Zi Yan, on the other hand, did not avoid it at all and let out a laugh from the side.

Xun Er's display of acting like a little woman made Gu Fei frown. Without caring about Xun Er's face, he said indifferently, "Since you are so afraid of danger, it would be better to give this training opportunity to someone else. I think Gu Zhen is quite in need of such an opportunity!"

"Brother Gu Fei..."

Xun Er looked helpless; she had not expected Gu Fei to advise her not to participate in the Heavenly Tomb trial.

Just at this moment, Gu Fei sensed that this world was trembling violently, and a vast, ancient aura slowly permeated out from the Void Space.

Under this ancient aura, a sense of awe welled up from the depths of everyone's souls present!

"The Heavenly Tomb is about to open..."

Looking at the sky that had suddenly darkened, Gu Fei whispered softly.

Just as his words fell, the void space suddenly erupted with a heaven-shaking loud noise, and immediately, a thousand-foot-large spatial crack spread directly from the sky.

And in the center of that spatial crack, a ball of silver light gradually emerged, finally turning into a hundred-foot-large spatial gate, and that vast, ancient aura was precisely emanating from within it.

"Everyone, you should know the rules for entering the Heavenly Tomb!"

"Each clan has two spots; there must absolutely not be too many people entering!"

Gu Nanhai's figure appeared in the sky.

He scanned the figures from the various clans around him and said indifferently.

Everyone nodded slightly.

The rules for entering the Heavenly Tomb had always been this way, and the two spots for each clan had also continued until now...

"Since that is the case, then my Xiao Clan should also have spots to enter the Heavenly Tomb, right!"

Just at this moment, a voice suddenly rang out, making everyone present feel surprised.

The person speaking was none other than Xiao Yan.

"This kid has a lot of nerve!"

"Where does the current Xiao Clan still have the qualifications to possess spots to enter the Heavenly Tomb!"

"Sigh, that is not quite right. Since the Xiao Clan is no longer worthy of having spots, then why does the Ancient Clan still occupy the Xiao Clan's spots and enter with two more people than us?"

For a time, everyone was discussing it heatedly, and a youth who came from the Soul Clan did not forget to fan the flames.

He was tireless when it came to things that could damage the reputation of the Ancient Clan.

"Senior, that day you promised that you could satisfy any request I made!"

"Now, I only want back one spot that belongs to my Xiao Clan to enter the Heavenly Tomb!"

Under the gaze of the crowd, Xiao Yan came directly into mid-air to speak with Gu Nanhai.

"Are you certain you want to make this request?"

In the sky, Gu Nanhai's face was dark, his voice carrying the pressure of a powerhouse.

"Xiao Yan, how does he dare? Does he not see what kind of occasion this is? Is he tired of living?"

At this moment, Xun Er was also nearby; she was very angry as she watched Xiao Yan's actions.

The Xiao Clan has fallen to such a state, what qualifications do they still have to touch such an opportunity?

"I am certain!"

"Could it be that a Gu Clan Elder is the type of person who goes back on their word?"

Facing the pressure exerted by Gu Nanhai, Xiao Yan braced himself, straightened his back, and said firmly.

He firmly believed that, out of concern for his reputation, a Gu Clan Elder would never make a move against him in front of so many people.

"Xiao Yan, you actually dare to slander a Gu Clan Elder; I think you are courting death!"

The next moment, a cold killing intent enveloped Xiao Yan's body, causing his face to turn deathly pale.

Under the gaze of the crowd, a man with black and white hair soared into the sky.

The person who arrived was none other than Gu Yao!

The reason he was so furious was that the four spots for the Ancient Clan this time belonged to Gu Fei, Xun Er, Gu Qingyang, and himself.

Gu Yao could not compare to the first three.

If Xiao Yan took back the one spot that belonged to the Xiao Clan, then he, Gu Yao, would automatically have his opportunity to enter the Heavenly Tomb cancelled.

A mere ant, yet he dared to compete with him, a top genius of the Ancient Clan, for an opportunity; how could he not be angry?
