Chapter 337: Seven Clans Alliance!
Chapter 337: Seven Clans Alliance!
Amidst the murmurs and discussions, Gu Fei had already anticipated these reactions. However, as the core figure of the six-clan alliance, he couldn't afford to lose his composure.
Thus, he appeared much more composed compared to the others.
"It seems this matter can't be delayed any longer.." He murmured to himself, a trace of worry flashing in his eyes.
He knew very well that the situation was becoming extremely urgent. Even with his current strength as an eight-star Dou Saint, he still couldn't locate the Hun Clan's hidden space. Their method of concealment seemed to be far beyond his understanding.
Now, all hope rested on Gu Yuan, the clan leader, whose soul realm had reached the God Realm.
His soul had already reached the peak of the Heaven Realm, and even after several significant breakthroughs in his soul power, he was still unable to reach the God Realm.
In the original story, Xiao Yan was able to reach it thanks to his ancestor sacrificing his soul to defeat the Heavenly Tomb Soul. Gu Fei, however, didn't have such a privilege.
Despite this, he was not disheartened. His emotional energy had accumulated significantly, and he estimated that in a short time, he would have enough to raise his soul to the next realm.
As he was pondering solutions, a commotion suddenly erupted in the distance.
"Report! There are two unknown figures outside the camp, requesting an audience."
A Dou King expert from the six-clan alliance quickly approached, bowing respectfully to him. "Oh?" He raised an eyebrow. In such sensitive times, the arrival of strangers naturally made him wary.
"Let's go take a look," He said in a deep voice as he headed toward the camp's entrance.
Soon, he arrived outside the camp and saw two figures standing calmly.
One of them was a man dressed in a blood-red robe with a resolute face, piercing eyes, and a terrifying aura that made people uneasy.
The other was a young man, handsome and determined, with a firm gaze.
"Who are you?" A strong figure from the six clans asked cautiously.
At that moment, a startled voice suddenly rang out:
"That... that's Xiao Chen, the Blood Axe!"
An elderly figure squeezed through the crowd, his face filled with disbelief.
The mention of that name sent shockwaves through the camp.
Xiao Chen, the Blood Axe, was a famous ancient powerhouse. Who would have thought he was still alive?
As the camp buzzed with astonishment, the Ling and Yao Clans' leaders also arrived. "Brother Xiao, it's been a long time." Yao Dan stepped forward with a hint of joy on his face. "Yes, I never expected to see you again!" Ling Yuan said with emotion.
Clearly, they both knew him. If it weren't for him being trapped in the Demonic Flame Space for so many years, his current power level would likely rival that of Yan Jin or Lei Ying (8-Star Dou Saint).
"It's been a while," Xiao Chen nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping across the crowd before finally resting on Gu Fei.
"I'm here to ask where my clan members are located," he said in a deep voice, his eyes showing a complex mix of emotions.
This question left everyone exchanging confused glances. The leaders of various clans shook their heads, looking awkward.
After all, someone like Xiao Zhan wouldn't have drawn the attention of such powerful figures.
"The Gu Clan may have some knowledge about this matter," an elderly figure hesitantly spoke up.
This comment immediately directed everyone's attention toward the Gu Clan's camp.
"Ah, so it's Brother Xiao Chen," a dignified voice suddenly sounded.
Three figures slowly emerged from the crowd- none other than the three Gu Immortals. Their wrinkled faces showed surprise, clearly not expecting him to appear.
Behind them, Yan Jin, Lei Ying, and Gu Fei walked side by side.
With Gu Yuan currently in seclusion, using his soul power to search for the Hun Realm's location, they were managing the camp in his absence.
Yan Jin's crimson eyes flashed with sharpness as he examined Xiao Chen.
Lei Ying furrowed his brow, his rough face filled with solemnity as he sensed the terrifying aura surrounding him.
Gu Fei stood at the front, locking eyes with Xiao Chen. The two powerhouses' auras clashed in the air, creating invisible sparks.
"Gu Fei!" He suddenly spoke, a hint of gratitude in his voice.
A rare smile appeared on Xiao Chen's resolute face. "Thank you for saving me back then."
Clearly, he still remembered how the young one had rescued him from the Demonic Flame Space.
"No need for thanks, Senior. It was just a small effort," He smiled and waved it off.
At this moment, Xiao Yan, following silently behind Xiao Chen, bowed slightly without
daring to meet the eyes of the gathered leaders.
After all, every person present was among the top powers on the continent.
As the young master of the Falling Star Pavilion, he felt insignificant.
However, back then, Gu Fei was merely a rising talent, relying on his elders' influence. Now, all of his power and authority stemmed from himself! Xiao Yan couldn't help but feel a mix of
emotions.
In comparison, he was far from his level. This thought carried a tinge of bitterness, but it was understandable.
(TL/n: Don't worry dude you have him beat in talent. In the OG, you took 10 years to reach Dou God from Dou Ancestor. Our mc only managed to reach 8-Star Dou Saint after 15 years.
I sometimes forget how perversely fast OG Xiao Yan cultivated in the later stages. Isn't it supposed to get exponentially hard as you climb up?)
Gu Fei then turned his gaze to Xiao Yan and smiled warmly, nodding in acknowledgment.
His heart warmed at the gesture. Despite his lofty status now, he hadn't forgotten him.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
"The descendants of your Xiao Clan were likely captured by the Hun Clan," Gu Fei said
sternly, his eyes growing sharp.
"To recover them, we must first find the Hun Clan!"
His words caused an uproar throughout the camp.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen furrowed his brow, anger flashing across his determined face as
his fists clenched tightly.
"Hun Clan..." He spat through gritted teeth, his voice laced with murderous intent.
Clearly, he had long heard about the wickedness of the Hun Clan and knew how despicable
they were.
"When you find the Hun Realm, I will lend a hand." He declared, his gaze resolute.
He trusted Gu Fei and believed that if he said so, it was likely true.
Moreover, since this concerned the safety of his clan, he couldn't stand by idly.
Gu Fei's face lit up with joy at this.
With Xiao Chen, an ancient powerhouse, joining the fight, their chances of defeating the Hun
Clan increased significantly.
"Great! With Senior's help, we're now even more confident in facing the Hun Clan!" He said
with a smile.
The others nodded in agreement.
