Chapter 93: Having a Background is Awesome!
【Qiu Ling feels anger, Emotion Value +20】
"Young friend Gu Fei, agreeing to let you enter the Star Domain to subdue the Three Thousand Burning Flame this time was already an exception made by our Pill Tower. You actually intended to bring others in as well; this is simply too..."
Seeing Gu Fei tear open the Space Jade Slip, Qiu Ling, who was to the side, was immediately somewhat angry.
His expression changed slightly, and he began to rebuke him.
Although Gu Fei had a profound background, this behavior of his truly offended the Pill Tower!
However, before Qiu Ling could finish his harsh words, he was instantly frozen in place.
Because, as the white-robed old man stepped out from that spatial rift, an aura terrifying to the point of being indescribable appeared within the Star Domain.
Qiu Ling's mouth hung open, and the words he had intended to say were all swallowed back down.
His eyes held nothing but shock and dullness.
He stared fixedly at the plain-looking old man who had emerged from the spatial rift, a trace of wariness flashing in his eyes, and he took a few steps back.
Who exactly was this newcomer? That terrifying aura was far beyond even the Three Giants.
And the next moment, the void space rippled slightly, and then, another aged figure slowly emerged.
The person who arrived was none other than the head of the Pill Tower's Three Giants, Xuan Kongzi.
He had just sensed the abnormal spatial fluctuations within the Star Domain, so he had no time to greet others, summoning the silver gate once more to enter the Star Domain.
Seeing Xuan Kongzi arrive, Qiu Ling's expression relaxed, and just as he was about to speak, Xuan Kongzi hurriedly waved his hand, his expression serious, signaling him to stop.
"This terrifying aura, could it be that this senior's cultivation realm..."
The moment he saw the white-robed old man, Xuan Kongzi felt his heart jump violently for an instant, his eyes also filled with a trace of intense wariness.
"Hehe, little Gu Fei, you finally remembered this old fellow. Did you encounter some trouble this time?"
The old man who walked out of the rift had originally had a serious expression, but his aura climbed, and faint light flickered at his fingertips.
He had rushed over in a hurry, thinking that Gu Fei had encountered major trouble by summoning him this time.
When he saw that Gu Fei was safe and sound, the heart he had been holding finally let go, and an amiable smile appeared on his face.
"Grandpa Gu Xiong, can I not see you, old man, if there is no trouble?"
Gu Fei said with a smile, his tone quite casual, carrying a sense of closeness.
The person he had invited this time was a senior from the generation of his grandfather, Gu Lie, in the clan, who had watched Gu Fei grow up since he was a child and had an excellent relationship with him.
In Gu Fei's Storage Ring, there were still over a dozen such Space Jade Slips.
Each Space Jade Slip could, at the very least, summon a Half-Saint expert.
These Space Jade Slips were all forced into his hands by those powerful elders in the clan of his grandfather's and uncle's generations; Gu Fei had declined them repeatedly, only bringing a few less.
It could be said that in the Ancient Clan, Gu Fei was showered with thousands of favors.
He had originally wanted to come out to gain experience, but if he used those Space Jade Slips too much, he feared he would become dependent on them, which would not be of much help to his strength improvement.
Gu Fei would only use these Space Jade Slips when he truly needed them.
Right now was the first time he had used a Space Jade Slip to ask a clan expert for help.
And the Gu Xiong who came this time had a cultivation that reached the Three-Star Dou Sheng level, completely crushing the strongest person present, Xuan Kongzi.
Even in the hidden Little Dan Tower, it would be difficult to find someone who could contend with him.
"Junior Xuan Kongzi greets Senior!"
Xuan Kongzi looked at the old man and the youth chatting happily over there, his expression slightly solemn.
Gu Xiong's aura was simply too strong.
In Xuan Kongzi's perception, it even exceeded that of the Great Elder of the Little Dan Tower.
At this moment, Xuan Kongzi did not dare to be negligent; he walked forward and greeted him respectfully.
"Hmm!"
Hearing this, Gu Xiong's gaze rested on Xuan Kongzi for a moment, and he nodded slightly.
At this moment, Gu Fei had already invited a helper, so he had to take the Three Thousand Burning Flame today to avoid any complications.
However, given Gu Fei's personality, he clearly would not forcibly seize the Exotic Fire at the Pill Tower.
"Senior Xuan Kongzi, this Three Thousand Burning Flame is a trouble for the Pill Tower. Why not let me take it away today?"
Gu Fei cupped his hands very politely.
To the side, Gu Xiong heard Gu Fei's words and also nodded in agreement.
Although in his view, this Exotic Fire was indeed not a particularly important treasure.
However, Gu Fei had always been opinionated; since he was unwilling to let it go, it meant this Exotic Fire was very compatible with his cultivation.
"Since little Gu Fei has taken a fancy to this Exotic Fire, you should just hand it over. Whatever compensation you need, just say it!"
Upon hearing this, Xuan Kongzi's expression was strange, and his gaze glanced at Gu Fei without a trace.
So this kid had been acting so confident before not because he was certain of himself, but because he was certain of the person he had invited to help.
The current Xuan Kongzi, from the moment he saw Gu Xiong, was already able to confirm that Gu Fei and the other came from that ancient great clan, the Ancient Clan.
In Xuan Kongzi's impression, those Ancient Races seemed to be particularly arrogant.
They almost never disdained to participate in the power struggles of the Central Plains.
Nor did they care for some of the resources of the outside world.
Even the Three Thousand Burning Flame was nothing to such an ancient great clan; that Gu Xiong and Gu Fei could be so polite was already giving their Pill Tower face.
"Since Senior has already spoken, then let it be so. No compensation is needed!"
Xuan Kongzi hesitated for a moment and agreed. Next, he quickly formed seals with both hands.
The strange runes on the black giant dragon's body slowly faded, and the black lines continuously receded.
The moment the Seal was broken, the Three Thousand Burning Flame suddenly opened its eyes, let out a roar, and its figure retreated violently, wanting to escape the Star Domain.
"Beast, if you dare to run again, I will slap you to death!"
Seeing this, Gu Xiong let out a low shout, his voice carrying endless pressure.
Although this Three Thousand Burning Flame has been able to contend with the Three Giants of the Pill Tower for so many years, it does not mean that it truly possesses the strength to fight the Three Giants.
After all, the Three Giants have always wanted to Seal it, and Sealing is a different matter from killing; if they had chosen to kill it, I fear the Three Thousand Burning Flame would have long since completely dissipated.
Although the Three Thousand Burning Flame is known as the Undying Fire, it is not as if the Three Giants of the Pill Tower have no way to deal with it if they truly wanted to; it is just that they do not wish to truly go that far.
Every kind of Exotic Fire is an extremely rare object to an Alchemist.
Moreover, these Exotic Fires take thousands or tens of thousands of years to form, so if they were destroyed at will, it would be a terrible waste of heaven's gifts.
However, Gu Xiong is different; if the Three Thousand Burning Flame does not obey, he will use thunderous means to destroy it. At this moment, under the intimidation of Gu Xiong's aura, the highly intelligent Three Thousand Burning Flame indeed stopped fleeing and halted in place, unwilling.
"Consider yourself sensible, you beast!"
Gu Xiong pinched a seal with his hands, and a force wrapped around the Three Thousand Burning Flame, subsequently forcibly compressing and putting away its massive body.
"Many thanks, Grandpa Gu Xiong!"
Seeing this, a smile appeared on Gu Fei's face.
"Having a big background really is different!"
【Qiu Ling generates speechless and envious emotions, Emotion Value +20】
Watching Gu Xiong take away the Three Thousand Burning Flame, Qiu Ling could not help but grumble in his heart.
