Chapter 467: Gu Yuan

After taking the Three Parts Return to Origin Qi back into his body, Xiao Yan suddenly discovered that the Three Parts Return to Origin Qi was actually staying quietly in his body, as if it had completely fused together, not decomposing into the other four types of energy as it usually did when not controlled.

Just as Xiao Yan was puzzled, he suddenly discovered that the scene in front of him was changing constantly, and then he discovered that he had inexplicably arrived on a mountain peak. At this moment, there was a vague figure standing on the mountain peak. Although it could be seen, its aura could not be felt, which was extremely strange.

Xiao Yan looked at this back figure, his heart also somewhat at a loss. After all, meeting the parents so quickly still made Xiao Yan somewhat uncomfortable, or rather, somewhat afraid.

Gu Yuan is an expert at the peak of Dou Sheng, his strength unfathomable. Even though Xiao Yan has reached his current realm, he doesn't know if he can take a slap from him.

Although there are only eight small realms between a Nine-star Dou Sheng and a One-star Dou Sheng, the gap between them is estimated to be a galaxy apart, especially for a peak Dou Sheng expert like Gu Yuan.

How big is the gap between a peak Dou Sheng and a Nine-star Dou Sheng? One can tell from the battle between Xu Wu Tun Yan and Gu Yuan. Xu Wu Tun Yan, who was in the early stage of Nine-star Dou Sheng, didn't even persist for one move in Gu Yuan's hands before being directly beaten into serious injury, and it took thousands of years just to heal.

In the original work, Zhu Kun, who was also a Nine-star Dou Sheng, almost squeezed Xiao Yan, a Seven-star Dou Sheng, to death in one move.

Knowing how terrifying these old fellows are, Xiao Yan naturally had to be cautious, otherwise the consequences could be imagined.

Plus, in Gu Yuan's eyes, Xiao Yan might just be a little yellow-haired brat who harmed his daughter, and Xiao Yan has more than just Xun Er.

Anyway, if he were Gu Yuan, he would definitely drown this scum who harmed his daughter in a manure pit.

"Are you very afraid of me?" Gu Yuan turned around and looked at Xiao Yan with a smile.

"Uh... cough, cough!" Xiao Yan smiled awkwardly and explained, "The junior is showing respect! Respect!"

Hearing this, Gu Yuan was suddenly somewhat crying-but-not-laughing, then the expression on his face turned cold, and he asked in an icy tone, "Do you think it's better if I beat you up, or drown you in a manure pit?"

"Ah?" Xiao Yan opened his eyes violently, looking at Gu Yuan in disbelief, cold sweat breaking out. Could this Gu Yuan also be a transmigrator? How did he know his thoughts?

"I sent her to the Xiao family when Xun Er was young to give her a beautiful childhood. After all, growing up in such a big clan, fate is simply not up to oneself. If Xun Er stayed in the Gu Clan, she would definitely be forced by the Gu Clan elders to cultivate. I didn't want Xun Er to live a life of nothing but cultivation every day. Because that's how I lived, and that kind of boring life is really tormenting. I didn't want Xun Er to become a cold clan tool." Gu Yuan didn't seem to notice Xiao Yan's reaction and spoke directly to himself.

Hearing this, Xiao Yan also nodded. Being born in such a big clan is both lucky and unfortunate.

The lucky thing is having endless resources, not having to go out and struggle, and having the protection of a big clan, one will be highly respected wherever one goes.

Of course, the unfortunate thing is that for the children of these big clans, everything is arranged for you from birth. You must follow the established rules, and everything must be for the benefit of the clan, even if one day you have to sacrifice your own happiness to fulfill the clan.

"I placed Xun Er in the Xiao family, nominally for the Xiao family's Tuoshe Ancient God Jade, but actually just to give her a beautiful childhood. You gave her warmth when Xun Er was young, and I want to thank you for this! But you hooked her heart away, and I, this old father, haven't even eaten a meal cooked by Xun Er yet!" When Gu Yuan said this, he felt anger rising. After all, his little cotton-padded jacket was leaking air, how could this be allowed?

Xiao Yan suddenly felt the surrounding space solidify, constantly squeezing his body, as if it were about to crush him, and he was suddenly somewhat terrified. "This... this can't be blamed on me! I didn't want to either!" A bitter smile appeared on Xiao Yan's face. He knew that Gu Yuan, this daughter-con, must be paying attention to Xun Er at all times! "This indeed can't be blamed on you, but you take one woman after another. What do you take Xun Er as? And what do you take my daughter as?" Gu Yuan glared at Xiao Yan and questioned.

Seeing Gu Yuan get angry, Xiao Yan was somewhat at a loss. The cold sweat on his head flowed like rain, and his back was also soaked.

"Gu Yuan isn't like this! Isn't he quite reasonable in the original work? How did he become like this when he got to me!" Xiao Yan frantically complained in his heart, feeling that he might lose half his life here today.

Actually, this can't be blamed on Gu Yuan's anger. After all, his little cotton-padded jacket was leaking air, too outward-leaning, simply like a maidservant, serving Xiao Yan. How could he, as a father, endure this?

If Xun Er weren't so good to Xiao Yan, so obedient, Gu Yuan wouldn't have such a big reaction. All of this was forced out.

Plus, Xiao Yan took one woman after another, and Xun Er was sad for a period of time for Xiao Yan. Last time, Gu Yuan forcibly detained Xun Er, which made Xun Er ignore him all along. It would be strange if Gu Yuan didn't have an opinion on Xiao Yan.

"Crack!" The powerful aura emitted from Gu Yuan directly caused Xiao Yan's bones to crackle, as if they were about to shatter.

The anger of a peak Nine-star Dou Sheng is something even Hun Tiandi would be wary of, let alone a rookie like Xiao Yan who had just entered Dou Sheng.

"Xun Er, where are you? Come over quickly! I can't hold on anymore!" Xiao Yan was suppressed by Gu Yuan and felt very uncomfortable, and didn't dare to fight back. After all, fighting back would lead to death faster.

"What are you doing?" Just when Xiao Yan was about to suffocate, a pleasant voice resounded beside Xiao Yan's ear. At this moment, this voice was like heavenly music, making Xiao Yan listen until tears were about to flow out.

"Hehe, I'm just chatting with Xiao Yan!" Seeing Xun Er come over, Gu Yuan instantly withdrew his aura and said with a smile. After speaking, he even gave Xiao Yan a wink, the warning meaning self-evident.

Xiao Yan naturally didn't dare to tell Xun Er the truth. If Gu Yuan settled accounts after the autumn, Xiao Yan couldn't handle it, and he couldn't keep Xun Er by his side all the time; there would always be times when he was alone.

"Yes! Xun Er, we are just chatting!" Xiao Yan directly used Exotic Fire to steam dry the sweat on his body, turned around, and looked at Xun Er with a smile.

Xun Er looked at Xiao Yan and then at her father Gu Yuan. Although she felt somewhat strange, she was still angry with her father, so she directly pulled Xiao Yan and said, "Let's go!"

Seeing Xun Er ignoring him and only having Xiao Yan in her eyes, Gu Yuan's face turned black, and the terrifying pressure swept toward Xiao Yan again.

Xiao Yan suddenly felt a chill on his back, as if he were being stared at by a fierce tiger, although he very much wanted to escape this place at this moment.

However, Xiao Yan knew that if he left today, he would have a hard time later.
