Chapter 10: Finally Divorced!

Gu Yuan truly felt ashamed this time because of Xun'er's unreasonable behavior.

He recalled what Xun'er had done and how he had protected her, forcing Gu Fei not to divorce her for the time being, and felt a chill run down his spine.

Because of Xun'er, how many wrong things has he done?

Gu Yuan shook his head helplessly, deciding it was no use trying to reconcile the two.

He told Xun'er all the evidence he had personally investigated and his conversation with the ancient demon that day.

Xun'er blushed slightly, realizing that she might have misunderstood Gu Fei.

But she was always stubborn and of course would never admit her mistake.

He simply gave a disgruntled snort and strode away.

But they happened to run into Gu Fei, who was rushing over, at the entrance of the main hall.

Former husband and wife, now meeting again, one is filled with resentment, while the other is completely indifferent.

Xun'er stopped and bit her lower lip, wanting to speak.

Gu Fei brushed past her without turning his head, as if he hadn't seen Xun'er at all.

Gu Yuan noticed the commotion at the door, sighed, and took a sip of tea.

Gu Fei stood tall and elegant below the main hall, his brows furrowed in determination.

He didn't say much. Gu Yuan shook his head, feeling a pang of sadness that Xun'er and he were destined to be apart.

He asked again solemnly, "Are you really going to divorce Xun'er?"

Gu Fei nodded: "That's right."

Gu Yuan wanted to try one last time, so he asked, "Are you absolutely sure you won't regret it?"

Gu Fei pondered for a moment.

[Xun'er develops an expectant mood, her mood value increases by 50.]

It turned out that Xun'er didn't know why, even though Gu Fei ignored her, she stubbornly stood at the door and didn't leave.

Gu Fei turned his back to her and fell into a brief silence.

A strange emotion welled up in Xun'er's heart.

Is Gu Fei going to back out?

She wasn't some plaything to be summoned and dismissed at will, but if Gu Fei wanted to go back on his word, she could reluctantly accept it.

Xun'er crossed her arms and thought angrily.

But then he heard Gu Fei's indifferent words.

"I will never regret it."

Xun'er's beautiful eyes widened as she stared incredulously at Gu Fei's retreating figure.

Gu Yuan was about to speak when Xun'er interrupted him.

She rushed forward and stood in front of Gu Fei.

"You...you really want to divorce me?"

Gu Fei then spared her his first glance of the day.

He looked down at Xun'er, his eyes no longer filled with the tenderness and love they once held.

"Otherwise what?"

Xun'er was stunned for a moment, and for the first time, she tasted the bitterness of regret.

Xun'er experiences regret, her emotion value increases by 10.

Gu Fei turned to leave, but she grabbed his sleeve.

He turned his head without any emotion, only to see Xun'er shedding tears in front of him for the first time.

She seemed not to understand where her tears came from, and wiped them away blankly.

A beautiful woman gazes at you with moist eyes, the corners of her eyes red; any man would soften at that sight.

Gu Fei, however, did not. He aloofly pulled down his sleeve and politely waited for Xun'er to speak.

"I...I won't see Brother Xiao Yan anymore. Can you please not divorce me? Brother Gu...Gu Fei, okay?"

Gu Fei's expression was somewhat subtle.

How long has it been since Xun'er called him "brother"? The last time she did so was only after begging him not to divorce her.

Gu Fei's last lingering feelings for Xun'er were crushed cleanly by her own hands.

Do you think it's still meaningful to say these things now?

Gu Fei turned his head and walked slowly toward the door.

A voice drifted from afar.

"My decision will never change!"

Even though Gu Fei was so close to Xun'er, she felt like she could no longer hold onto him.

Xun'er experiences regret, her emotion value increases by 200.

Xun'er experiences sadness; her emotional value increases by 200.

Xun'er slumped on the rustic wooden chair, her eyes filled with unmistakable sadness.

"Father, did I really do something wrong?"

Gu Yuan gave her a deep look, then turned and left without a word.

News of what happened in the main hall today quickly spread.

Xun'er's willfulness was met with disdain from many of the younger generation of the ancient clans.

Those who endured humiliation and hardship with deep affection were even more pitied by them.

Such an outstanding man as Brother Gu Fei was heartbroken by Xun'er.

However, many women of the ancient tribes realized what was happening.

Since Gu Fei and Xun'er have already separated, doesn't that mean they have a chance to get back together?

Which girl hasn't fantasized about such a handsome and dashing genius late at night?

In the days that followed, whenever Gu Fei left the mountain, he was surrounded by many women.

He received flowers from the elder's granddaughter, who was quite pretty, and his childhood sweetheart, with whom he had grown up, also went on outings with him.

There were even quite a few women who were a bit older than Gu Fei who came.

They found all sorts of excuses to get close to Gu Fei.

[Gu Yan develops feelings of affection; affection value increases by 1]

[Gu Ting develops feelings of affection; affection value increases by 1]

Such emotional values ​​have been pouring in over the past few days.

On one occasion, while Gu Fei was cultivating in the mountains, several old sages came to visit him in person.

Two or three petite women followed behind them, shyly hiding behind them.

They would occasionally peek out, their eyes sparkling as they looked at him.

Even if Gu Fei was slow to realize it, he must have figured out that this was going to be a matchmaker for him.

An elder patted his hand affectionately, saying some intimate words, while praising his granddaughter's exquisite appearance and formidable strength.

Gu Fei had never been afraid of anything, but the intense gazes of the elders and the young girl in front of him were all focused on him.

The burning gaze of someone seeing a rare treasure made Gu Fei somewhat uneasy.

After finally getting them off, Gu Fei let out a long sigh.

Although they meant well, Gu Fei couldn't accept it.

With so many beauties, isn't Gu Fei afraid of overeating?

After several days of this, he finally understood that these people were all after him, this hot commodity.

However, despite such intense "siege", Gu Fei never agreed to anyone's request.

Right now, all he wants to do is strive to become stronger.

However, the ancient world has been too peaceful, and apart from Xun'er, there are no other people with high luck who can provide emotional value through artificial systems.

In other words, it seems that it won't be easy for Gu Fei to become stronger in the Ancient Realm.

He could cultivate steadily if he wanted, as the ancient realm was rich in cultivation resources, and his grandfather, Gu Lie, was a highly respected figure in the ancient clan.

If he can concentrate on his studies, his future achievements will surely be remarkable.

But having already experienced the power of the system, how could Gu Fei be content to stay in this place and just keep toiling away?

He longed to become stronger quickly, to possess power comparable to the top experts.

This will depend on his opportunity.

It's a system that's like a god, capable of anything as long as you have emotional value.

After much deliberation, Gu Fei finally decided to head to the Northwest Continent.
