Chapter 209: Zi Yan: Your Emperor Has Returned!

"Ancient Clan, you are very good, very good indeed!"

The remaining Soul Clan Elder, after saying a few "very good"s in extreme resentment.

Silently took away the corpses of Hun Ya, Hun Li, and the soul box, then left.

"It seems that this time, the people of the Soul Clan will definitely not let this matter rest!"

"This matter could have been big or small, but unfortunately, after this scene, it has become a big deal; wanting to resolve it will not be so easy..."

The people from the other Ancient Races began to discuss one after another, speculating whether a great war would break out between the Soul Clan and the Ancient Clan because of this.

"Young Master Gu Fei must have some purpose in doing this..."

Huo Zhi was curious in her heart; Gu Fei clearly had a better way to handle it, yet he deliberately acted so aggressively to stir up conflict between the two clans.

Was this matter his own intention alone?

Or was it the intention of the entire Ancient Clan? Gu Fei did not pay attention to those voices around him; he cupped his hands toward Gu Nanhai, and then his figure descended to Xiao Yixian's side.

"Daddy!"

"Daddy!"

The two children immediately ran in front of Gu Fei, each grabbing one of his hands; they had not seen him for half a year and had missed him dearly.

"Let's go, let's go home!"

Gu Fei pulled the two children and walked toward the mountain peak with Xiao Yixian, Cai'er, Zi Yan, Qing Lin, and the others, not caring at all about what had just happened.

"Xianle, Wushuang, I am going back to the Spirit Realm soon; I will come to see you when I have time in the future!"

On the way back, that little girl from the Spirit Clan, Ling Xi, came over to say goodbye to the two little ones.

This time, she had stayed in the Ancient Realm for a full half year and had established a deep friendship with the two little ones, Xianle and Wushuang.

"Sister Ling Xi, you are leaving already!"

"Can you stay a little longer!"

Both Xianle and Wushuang were somewhat reluctant to part.

They both realized that if they parted this time, the next meeting might be years, or even ten or twenty years later.

"Xi'er, let's go!"

On the other side, the beautiful woman from the Spirit Clan walked over and urged Ling Xi to leave.

"A few of you, why not let Ling Xi stay in the Ancient Clan for a few years? I can take her as a nominal disciple!"

Gu Fei suddenly spoke up at this moment.

"This... is it appropriate..."

Hearing Gu Fei's words, the beautiful woman's face showed joy; the strength Gu Fei had just displayed had almost reached that of a Two-Star Dou Saint, and his future potential was limitless, likely reaching the pinnacle of the world.

Moreover, Gu Fei was also a High-Level Alchemist; if she became his nominal disciple.

The resources she could obtain would be far better than Ling Xi staying in the Spirit Realm.

"Yay!"

"Daddy is the best!"

The two little ones were overjoyed.

They pulled on Ling Xi, wanting her to agree.

Ling Xi was also very happy, but she still cast her gaze toward the beautiful woman.

"Xi'er, since Young Master Gu Fei has spoken, you may stay in the Ancient Realm for a few years; whenever you want to come back, we will come to pick you up!" The beautiful woman smiled and nodded.

"Mm!"

"Ling Xi pays respects to Master!"

The next moment, Ling Xi bowed very respectfully to Gu Fei.

"Good!"

Gu Fei showed a smile, then took out a bottle of Pill as a greeting gift for his disciple.

Following that, the whole group returned to the mountain peak where Gu Fei resided.

Having not seen each other for more than half a year, everyone had a lot to say.

At the same time, deep within the Ancient Realm, in a great hall, several Gu Clan Elders were gathered.

"Elder Nanhai, this time, that brat Gu Fei has really shaved off the Soul Clan's face, hasn't he?"

"It is estimated that before long, the Soul Clan will send people to ask us for an explanation!" Several Elders were discussing what had just happened, but no one blamed Gu Fei in their words.

With the talent Gu Fei had displayed today, ordinary Elders were not qualified to judge his right or wrong.

As long as Gu Fei did not do something like betraying the clan, no one would punish him.

They were too busy treating him like a treasure to be enshrined.

"Let them come if they want; the brat Gu Fei has already killed the Soul Clan's people, we can't just not let them come over and say a few words!"

Gu Nanhai laughed and said very indifferently.

"That is not the way to put it!"

Suddenly, an old man dressed in green robes entered the hall; this person was none other than Gudao, the head of the Three Immortals of the Ancient Clan.

"What does Elder Gudao mean?"

Gu Nanhai asked with some confusion.

"The Soul Clan this time intended to make a move against Xun Er in the Heavenly Tomb; the brat Gu Fei only killed three people, it was too easy on them!"

Hearing these words from Gudao, Gu Nanhai finally understood that he had misunderstood earlier.

"Elder Gudao, before, that descendant of the Xiao Clan made a request when he was leaving!"

"He asked our Ancient Clan to help find his father; we sent people to investigate and discovered that this matter is related to the Soul Clan!"

Gu Nanhai brought up another matter.

"It seems the Soul Clan is also coveting that piece of Ancient Jade, but that thing is useless if even one piece is missing!"

"Even if they obtained the one from the Xiao Clan, it would be of no great use!"

Gudao sighed.

Clearly, he did not realize that the Soul Clan was not just coveting the Xiao Clan's piece of Ancient Jade, but all of the Ancient Jade.

"Since you have promised that descendant of the Xiao Clan, when the people from the Soul Clan come to demand an explanation before long, just mention this matter in passing!"

"Brother Gu Fei, you promised me before that you would return to Dragon Island with me!"

Three days later, on the mountain peak where Gu Fei was staying, Zi Yan brought up this matter again.

"Rest assured, I remember!"

Gu Fei smiled and promised Zi Yan.

This time, he did not intend to drag it out.

With his current strength, he was already capable of providing Zi Yan with great help.

Simply controlling the offensive of the Three Great Dragon Kings should not be much of a problem.

If everything went smoothly, the North Dragon King would also have no opportunity to contact the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan.

Afterward, Gu Fei and Zi Yan quietly left the Ancient Realm just as they had before.

Upon leaving the Ancient Realm, Zi Yan directly established a Space Channel leading to Dragon Island.

The two traveled for a period of time, and finally, a glimmer of light appeared ahead.

The view before them was no longer that monotonous silver; lush green colors and mountain peaks once again filled his eyes.

The land that appeared before Gu Fei—though, in truth, it would be more appropriate to describe the object before him as an island—was vast.

This island was extremely vast in area; above the island's sky, a pale silver, bowl-shaped light barrier hung downward, enveloping the entire island, while outside it was pitch black.

The arrival of Zi Yan and Gu Fei was clearly sensed by the Dragon Clan experts within the island.

Several figures flew out from the island.

The closer they got, the more intense the imperial pressure radiating invisibly from Zi Yan became.

"I have returned!"

Zi Yan unfurled the Heavenly Phoenix Wings on her back and flew directly above that island.
