Battle Through the Heavens: He marries Xun'er, but she refuses to consummate the marriage!

Chapter 198 The Heavenly Tomb Opens, the Ancient Demon's Killing Intent!

"Xun'er..."

At this moment, Xiao Yan felt as if he had lost something very important.

The surrounding air seemed to have frozen.

Xiao Yan could clearly hear his own heart pounding.

"well……"

"Xiao Yan, let's go!"

After a long while, Ling Ying walked over, patted Xiao Yan on the shoulder, and gestured for him to leave.

Xiao Yan walked down Xun'er's mountain peak in a daze, and then returned to his residence.

……

On the third day, as the first rays of dawn shone down from the sky, an unusual atmosphere spread from the ancient sacred mountains.

"Today is the day the Heavenly Tomb opens, but unfortunately, only people of your ancient race are qualified to enter..."

Standing in front of the bamboo house, Little Fairy Doctor thoughtfully tidied Gu Fei's clothes.

Cai'er, along with the two little ones Wushuang and Xianle, looked tenderly at Gu Fei from the side.

After Little Fairy Doctor helped Gu Fei tidy up his clothes, the group stood on the Lion King's back.

"Brother Gu Fei, when you come out of the Heavenly Tomb, you must come with me to Dragon Island..."

Once atop the lion's back, Zi Yan suddenly moved close to Gu Fei, their faces less than a foot apart, close enough to feel each other's breath.

"Okay, I promise!"

"Once we emerge from the Heavenly Tomb, I'll accompany you to Ancient Dragon Island, so you can become Empress as soon as possible!"

Gu Fei smiled and said that he had indeed delayed this matter for many years. Now, Zi Yan was already showing signs of breaking through to become a five-star Dou Sheng.

Returning to Dragon Island will be much safer.

"Stop lying!"

Only after receiving the result did Zi Yan remove her face from Gu Fei's eyes.

Next, the Lion King flapped its wings and flew eastward toward the Ancient Sacred Mountains.

The location where the Heavenly Tomb is opened is deep within the Ancient Sacred Mountains, a place generally considered a forbidden area for ancient clans, where people are not allowed to enter under normal circumstances.

However, today, quite a few people have come to this forbidden area, including people from various ancient races and some major powers in the Central Plains.

On one of the hilltops, a woman in red, her face veiled, stared intently at the spot after Gu Fei arrived.

……

"Brother Gu Fei, if we enter this Heavenly Tomb separately, we'll be randomly teleported away. Why don't we enter together later?" Xun'er saw Gu Fei coming over and immediately came to his side, her face full of smiles.

However, Gu Fei completely ignored Xun'er's invitation.

"Brother Gu Fei, this Heavenly Tomb is so dangerous. If I go in alone, something might happen. Let's go in together; consider it protecting our fellow clansmen!"

Seeing that Gu Fei ignored her, Xun'er changed to a coquettish tone, her delicate and beautiful appearance would probably make most people's hearts flutter and agree.

This scene left Cai'er and Xiao Yixian, who were standing next to Gu Fei, speechless.

He secretly admired Xun'er's strong mental fortitude.

"Haha, you shameless woman!"

Zi Yan, without any attempt to hide it, laughed from the side.

Xun'er's coquettish behavior made Gu Fei frown. Ignoring Xun'er's feelings, he said calmly, "Since you're so afraid of danger, why not give this opportunity to someone else? I think Gu Zhen really needs it!"

"Brother Gufei..."

Xun'er looked helpless; she hadn't expected Gu Fei to advise her against participating in the Heavenly Tomb Trial.

Just then, Gu Fei sensed that the world was trembling violently, and a vast, ancient aura slowly emanated from the void.

Under this ancient aura, a sense of awe welled up in the souls of everyone present!

"The Heavenly Tomb is about to open..."

Looking at the sky that had suddenly darkened, Gu Fei murmured softly.

As soon as he finished speaking, a deafening roar erupted from the void, and then a massive spatial rift, thousands of feet long, spread out from the sky.

At the center of that spatial rift, a ball of silver light gradually emerged, eventually transforming into a massive spatial gate hundreds of feet long. The vast, ancient aura emanated from this gate.

"Gentlemen, you should all be aware of the rules for entering the Heavenly Tomb!"

"Each clan has two slots; there absolutely cannot be too many!"

The ancient South China Sea figure appeared in the sky.

He glanced around at the figures from various ethnic groups and said calmly.

Everyone nodded slightly.

The rules for entering the Heavenly Tomb have always been the same, with each clan having two slots, a practice that continues to this day...

"If that's the case, then my Xiao clan should also have a quota to enter the Heavenly Tomb!"

Just then, a voice suddenly rang out, surprising everyone present.

The speaker was none other than Xiao Yan.

"That kid has some nerve!"

"In its current state, the Xiao clan is hardly qualified to have a spot in the Heavenly Tomb!"

"Alas, that is not the case. Since the Xiao clan is no longer worthy of a spot, why does the Ancient Clan still occupy one of the Xiao clan's spots, giving them two more people than all the other clans combined?"

Immediately, the crowd began to discuss the matter, with a young man from the Soul Clan adding fuel to the fire.

He was quite happy to do things that could damage the reputation of the ancient clan.

"Senior, you promised that day that you could fulfill any request I made!"

"Right now, all I want is for my Xiao clan to reclaim a spot to enter the Heavenly Tomb!"

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Xiao Yan directly arrived in mid-air to talk to Gu Nanhai.

"Are you sure you want to make this request?"

In the sky, Gu Nanhai's face was dark, and his voice carried the pressure of a powerful figure.

"Xiao Yan, how dare he? Doesn't he know what kind of occasion this is? Doesn't he have a death wish?"

At this moment, Xun'er was also nearby. She was very angry at Xiao Yan's actions.

With the Xiao clan fallen to such a state, how could they possibly be qualified to have such an opportunity?

"I'm sure!"

"Could it be that the elders of the ancient clan are the kind of people who break their promises?"

Facing the pressure exerted by Gu Nanhai, Xiao Yan straightened his back and said firmly.

He firmly believed that the ancient clan elders would never attack him in front of so many people, out of consideration for their reputation.

"Xiao Yan, how dare you slander my Gu Clan elders! You're courting death!"

The next moment, a chilling killing intent enveloped Xiao Yan, turning his face deathly pale.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, a man with black and white hair shot into the sky.

The newcomer was none other than the Ancient Demon!

His anger stemmed from the fact that the four spots for the ancient clan were for Gu Fei, Xun'er, Gu Qingyang, and himself.

The three ahead of them were no match for the ancient demon.

If Xiao Yan were to reclaim a spot belonging to the Xiao Clan, then Gu Yao would automatically be disqualified from entering the Heavenly Tomb.

How could he not be furious that a mere ant dared to compete with him, a top genius of an ancient clan, for an opportunity?
