Great! Brother Gu Fei is getting a divorce!

This woman was named Gu Yunyou, and even within the entire Gu Clan, her strength was considered outstanding.

With her pretty looks and fairly formidable strength, Gu Yunyou had quite a few admirers as well.

Though she could not compare to Xun'er, ever since Xun'er had left, Gu Yunyou could also be considered a little goddess among the younger generation.

Yet she had always secretly loved Gu Fei, the foremost figure of the Gu Clan's younger generation.

She had fallen for Gu Fei long ago, but never expected that Gu Fei's first request to the clan chief would be to marry Xun'er.

Every night, Gu Yunyou could not understand how she was inferior to Xun'er.

Xun'er had left the Gu Clan very early on, while Gu Yunyou had practically grown up alongside Gu Fei.

Could even the bond of growing up together not compare to one Xun'er?

But even so, after Gu Fei married Xun'er, Gu Yunyou still came here every night to gaze at these things and think of him.

Gu Fei was simply too outstanding. Of course, she could not let go.

Seeing Gu Fei again today, she felt that his strength seemed to have risen once more. She had long since been unable to see through either his strength or his future.

Gu Fei was intently examining the system panel while Gu Yunyou rested her chin on her hand and secretly watched him, becoming somewhat entranced without realizing it.

A blush spread across her face, and her breathing became unsteady.

Gu Fei quickly noticed the disturbance in the distance.

"Who is it?!"

Gu Fei looked over warily and discovered that it was Gu Yunyou, the girl he had grown up with.

Startled by Gu Fei's glance, Gu Yunyou feared that he would discover she had been secretly watching him these past few days.

Gu Yunyou felt panic. Emotion Value +3

In her panic, she spoke first to hide her embarrassment.

"Big Brother Gu Fei, why aren't you with Xun'er, keeping her company?"

She felt somewhat uneasy.

Yet she saw that Gu Fei seemed like a completely different person, his gaze indifferent.

In the past, whenever he heard Xun'er's name, Gu Fei would smile, and his eyes would soften a little.

Now, however, he acted as though it had nothing to do with him, as if he had heard a stranger's name.

"There's no need for me to keep Xun'er company anymore."

"No need for you to accompany her?"

A strange emotion unconsciously welled up in Gu Yunyou's heart. Realizing something, she instinctively pressed on.

"Yes, never again."

"Xun'er and I are preparing to divorce."

Gu Fei met Gu Yunyou's eyes.

Yet he saw anticipation surge within them.

Gu Yunyou felt anticipation. Emotion Value +5

The system gave a timely prompt.

Seeing Gu Yunyou's flushed face, Gu Fei understood something.

Could this girl be hoping for him to get divorced?

Could she... like him?

Just as Gu Fei was about to speak, he was interrupted by a female voice he knew all too well.

"I won't divorce him!"

Gu Fei and Gu Yunyou both turned toward the source of the voice.

It turned out that Xun'er had arrived at Gu Fei's place at that very moment.

Xun'er felt anger. Emotion Value +100

Her face was filled with fury as she looked at Gu Yunyou with hostility.

Gu Yunyou took a step back and looked helplessly toward Gu Fei.

Seeing her instinctively seek Gu Fei's help, Xun'er was just about to speak.

"Why are you still here?"

Gu Fei's eyes were filled with disappointment and anger.

He rebuked her, "You already have someone else in your heart, and you still came here to disgust me?!"

Hearing this, Xun'er bit her lower lip with her pearly teeth and looked at him rather nervously.

Of course, she could not deny that she had done wrong.

But Gu Fei should not be here with Gu Yunyou...!

"Then what were you and Gu Yunyou doing here? If I hadn't come, were you going to marry her?"

Anger flashed in Xun'er's beautiful eyes, her own imaginings stirring up dissatisfaction in her heart.

No matter how much she cared about Brother Xiao Yan, she would not allow Gu Fei to care about Gu Yunyou!

Xun'er felt anger, Emotion Value +100

Xun'er glared at Gu Fei and simply voiced everything on her mind.

"Could it be that you want to divorce me because of her?"

Gu Fei looked at her in disappointment and unconsciously let out a sigh.

Xun'er was still as beautiful as ever, her entire being radiant with grace.

But she was no longer the same little girl she had once been.

"Xun'er, why would you think that?"

"I grew up with this girl. Isn't it normal for me to care about her as her older brother?"

"You know better than anyone why I want a divorce."

Xun'er's eyes were red, yet she stubbornly held Gu Fei's gaze.

Girls were sensitive, and she had long noticed that Gu Yunyou liked Gu Fei.

It had been one thing when Gu Fei had always kept his distance from other women.

But Gu Fei was her husband now. Even if she did not like him, she would not allow Gu Yunyou to set her sights on him!

"Do you really want to divorce me?"

"Otherwise? Should I keep wearing that green hat and watch you give everything I gave you to him?"

Xun'er's gaze wavered slightly, but she refused to fall behind in front of Gu Yunyou.

Xun'er felt ashamed, Emotion Value +80

Gu Yunyou stood not far behind Gu Fei, silently listening to their conversation.

She was also curious why Gu Fei had suddenly proposed a divorce.

Listening to Gu Fei's heavy words, Gu Yunyou sensed part of the reason.

Could it be that Xun'er had another man in her heart?

Gu Fei did not wish to say more. He frowned slightly and looked toward the boundless night.

"You two, it's late. Please head back first. I need to rest."

Disbelief flashed through Xun'er's eyes.

He was actually sending her away.

But Gu Fei's attitude was firm, so she could only descend the mountain with Gu Yunyou.

Gu Fei returned to his room. Without thinking further, he checked his system panel and cultivated through the night.

Early the next morning, Gu Fei headed straight for a grand hall deep within the Gu Clan.

He had not slept all night, but he had already thought through everything concerning Xun'er.

Since even half a year of companionship could not win back Xun'er's heart, he might as well let go.

Thus, Gu Fei waited in the hall for Gu Yuan to arrive.

He intended to meet Gu Yuan and bring up his desire for a divorce.

It had been he who proposed marrying Xun'er to Gu Yuan in the first place.

He had never expected that he would also be the one to propose the divorce to Gu Yuan.

Gu Fei gave a bitter smile, then recalled the Emotion Value he had gained last night, and a trace of relief gradually appeared on his face.

Afterward, Gu Fei waited in the Gu Clan's main hall for a while.

At some point, a figure silently appeared in the seat of honor at the head of the hall.

The man appeared to be around forty years old, looking like an utterly ordinary middle-aged man. He wore simple hemp robes, and a faint smile hung on his face.

This man was none other than the Gu Clan's patriarch, Gu Yuan.

At this moment, Gu Yuan looked down at Gu Fei with a hint of kindness in his eyes.

As the patriarch, he was extremely satisfied with Gu Fei's strength as the leader of the younger generation.

As Xun'er's father, he also had a very favorable impression of his son-in-law.

Even so, Gu Fei still felt immense pressure. No matter what, the man standing before him was the Gu Clan patriarch, far stronger even than his grandfather.

With the strength of a Nine-Star Dou Sheng Late Stage cultivator, he was invincible in this era where no Dou Di had appeared.
