Xun'er's Jealousy!

Yun Yun did not understand why Gu Fei had frowned. She remained very quiet and did not speak to disturb him.

Gu Fei rubbed his brow as well, looking somewhat impatient.

He did not want to leave first and make himself seem guilty. Instead, he stood where he was, quietly waiting for the two of them to approach.

A moment later, two black dots appeared in the distant sky and rapidly flew closer.

As the distance closed, the two black dots gradually became clear. They were none other than Xun'er and Ling Ying.

"It really is him!"

Xun'er felt surprised. Emotion Value +100

Xun'er's gaze had been anxiously searching, and now, she finally saw Gu Fei.

Although she had long been mentally prepared, she was still somewhat surprised upon seeing him with her own eyes.

Then, in the next moment, she saw a beautiful woman standing beside Gu Fei.

Though the woman wore a plain robe, it could not conceal her proud figure. She was tall and slender, with cold, beautiful eyes, lovely features, and a cascade of dark hair falling down her back. She carried herself with an air of noble grace.

At a glance, she actually seemed rather well-matched with Gu Fei.

Who was this woman?

Xun'er felt jealous. Emotion Value +100

For some reason, Xun'er felt an inexplicable jealousy rise in her heart.

She shook her head, feeling that she must have become obsessed from missing Xiao Yan, Brother too much.

What did Gu Fei have to do with her, anyway?

Very soon, Xun'er and Ling Ying landed before Gu Fei.

The moment Xun'er arrived, she immediately pressed Gu Fei with questions.

"Gu Fei, why are you here?"

Her tone was somewhat urgent. If Gu Fei had not known that her heart was solely preoccupied with Xiao Yan, Brother, he might really have thought that his ex-wife was worried for his safety.

"That's what I should be asking you!"

Gu Fei looked impatient as he responded coldly, "I came out to gain experience. What about you? Why were you following me?"

What exactly was she up to, following him all the way to the Monster Mountain Range?

Hearing his tone, Xun'er bit her lower lip and shook her head in denial. "I wasn't following you!"

Naturally, Gu Fei did not believe her. If she had not been following him, how could it be such a coincidence that they were both gaining experience in the Monster Mountain Range?

Seeing Gu Fei curl his lips in a mocking manner, his gaze filled with ridicule, Xun'er became somewhat exasperated.

Xun'er felt angry. Emotion Value +100

"The Northwest Continent is famously barren. What could possibly be worth a monster like you coming here to train for?"

"Anywhere would be better than training here."

As Xun'er spoke, she became even more convinced of her suspicion. Her beautiful eyes flickered as she questioned him again, "Do you have some other purpose?"

Xun'er felt suspicious. Emotion Value +100

"Some other purpose?"

Hearing Xun'er's repeatedly interrogative tone, so utterly lacking in courtesy, even someone with the best temper would become angry.

Gu Fei's good mood from subduing the Amethyst Winged Lion King had been completely ruined by Xun'er.

He snapped, "What does my business have to do with you?"

Xun'er had betrayed him first, yet now she kept chasing after him and questioning him.

What the hell was she going crazy over?

There had to be a limit to being willful and immature!

Gu Fei closed his eyes, then simply turned away and stopped paying attention to Xun'er.

Xun'er felt uneasy. Emotion Value +200

When Gu Fei did not respond, Xun'er felt uneasy.

Could Xiao Yan, Brother already have fallen victim to him?

But he should not be that kind of person.

No one knew what Xun'er had imagined, but her words suddenly took on a pleading tone.

"Gu Fei, I don't care what you truly think. I'm not suspecting you. I'm only... only begging you..."

"I know that because of me, you may harbor some resentment toward Xiao Yan, Brother."

Xun'er's voice paused, and she choked up slightly.

"Consider it my plea. Don't hurt Xiao Yan, Brother. Don't go after him, okay?"

Xun'er felt pleading emotion; Emotion Value +200

Yun Yun felt surprise; Emotion Value +100

Beside them, Yun Yun had not said a single word to interrupt the two of them. However, as she listened to their conversation, her heart was deeply shaken.

"Xiao Yan?"

Yun Yun still remembered the name Xiao Yan.

This person had once been engaged to her only disciple, Nalan Yanran.

And Yanran had broken off the engagement with him.

The two had made a three-year agreement.

Yun Yun had come to the Monster Mountain Range this time because she had learned that Xiao Yan's talent had recovered and his strength was advancing rapidly. Worried that Yanran might lose, she had come here to obtain Amethyst Crystal for pill refinement.

But Xiao Yan was clearly just a youth of ordinary birth with mediocre cultivation.

How had he become connected to exceptional talents like Gu Fei and Xun'er?

Moreover, judging from this, the situation was likely extremely complicated.

Both Xun'er and Gu Fei's attitudes were off. They probably both had a great deal to do with Xiao Yan.

Yun Yun herself held no prejudice against Xiao Yan. She never viewed anyone through tinted glasses.

Yet today's chaotic situation had left even her in a rare foul mood.

Yun Yun furrowed her brows, instinctively gaining a slight dislike for Xiao Yan.

"Harm Xiao Yan?"

Gu Fei frowned again, unable to believe what he had just heard as rage surged within him.

He had never expected that Xun'er would think of him in such a way!

Harm Xiao Yan? Was Xiao Yan even worthy?

Xun'er was far too conceited. He clearly did not care, yet she had always believed that he remained hung up on her and Xiao Yan.

She had even believed he had traveled thousands of miles to the Monster Mountain Range on the Northwest Continent under the pretense of training, all because he wanted to kill Xiao Yan.

Gu Fei laughed in extreme anger, his expression filled with disdain. "He isn't worthy of occupying my thoughts like that!"

Looking at Xun'er, Gu Fei's eyes gained another trace of disgust. "Neither are you!"

Xun'er felt disappointed; Emotion Value +100

After saying this, Gu Fei felt irritated. He turned around and softly said to the somewhat dazed Yun Yun, "Your injuries haven't fully healed yet. You should rest more."

Yun Yun nodded. Before she could sort out their tangled relationships, she entered the cave together with Gu Fei.

Only Xun'er and Ling Ying remained outside.

Xun'er briefly put Xiao Yan, Brother out of her mind. Watching Gu Fei and Yun Yun's figures walking side by side, she murmured, "Who is that woman? What is Brother Gu Fei's relationship with her?"

Xun'er was furious, yet she also felt somewhat disappointed.

After all, Gu Fei was her ex-husband. They had only divorced not long ago—how could Gu Fei be so close to another woman?

Moreover, Yun Yun's bearing and appearance were both outstanding. Her noble aura made Xun'er feel a trace of unease.

She had thought she had not taken Gu Fei's words to heart, but the system's faithful notification still exposed her true feelings.

Faced with Gu Fei's disgust, Xun'er felt somewhat hurt.

How had all the goodness of the past become a sharp sword he used to stab her?

Somewhat distraught, she cast a deep look at the cave.

Gu Fei had concealed the cave entrance's aura, so Xun'er could not see inside. She could not help growing suspicious.

Would something happen between Gu Fei and that woman inside?
