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

The ancient world was peaceful and serene.

The morning sunlight bathed the ancient territory, as if draping this sacred land in a golden veil.

No wonder, recently the ancient clans have dispatched many people to various parts of the mainland to collect strange fire.

The ancient tribe was much quieter than usual.

Gu Fei, accompanied by Xian Le and Wu Shuang, walked slowly along the stone path leading to the ancestral hall.

The two children looked around excitedly, their little faces beaming with curiosity.

This is understandable, as this was the first time these two children had ever worshipped their ancient ancestors.

"Dad, where are we going?"

Xianle asked in a low voice.

After all, these two little guys haven't been to the ancestral hall of the ancient clan yet.

"Our ancient clan's ancestral hall"

Gu Fei looked at the two little ones and said something.

"Father, are we going to pay respects to our ancestors?"

Xianle tilted her little face up and asked, her big eyes sparkling with anticipation.

"That's right. You two better behave yourselves when we get to the ancestral hall."

Gu Fei smiled gently and reached out to pat his daughter's head.

Wushuang nodded in agreement.

Looking at the two children's innocent yet determined expressions, Gu Fei felt a surge of warmth in his heart.

Gu Fei held the two children's hands and walked towards the ancient and solemn gate of the ancestral hall.

Push open the heavy door.

The two little ones followed behind silently.

The ancestral halls of ancient clans are not places one can enter and leave at will.

In this ancient clan ancestral hall, many clan elders usually guard the place.

Furthermore, even the ancient jade artifacts of the ancient tribes are placed in ancestral halls.

This shows the importance of ancestral halls in ancient clans.

The ancestral hall appears quite spacious, with the walls adorned with carvings of the ancient clan's ancestral totems.

Incense, candles, and offerings were placed on top. A faint sandalwood scent filled the air.

Gu Fei led the two children to the main altar, took out the incense and candles that had been prepared beforehand, and respectfully lit them and placed them in the incense burner.

"Come, kneel down."

Gu Fei said softly.

Xianle and Wushuang knelt obediently on the prayer mats, imitating Gu Fei by putting their hands together, bowing their heads and closing their eyes.

"Our descendants, Gu Fei, along with our children Xian Le and Wu Shuang, respectfully offer this simple libation and humble sacrifice before the spirit tablet of our ancestors."

Gu Fei took a deep breath and murmured.

At this moment, Gu Fei felt as if he had traveled through time and space to converse with his deceased ancestors.

Today, the ancient clan places high hopes on itself.

For Gu Fei, he had set the stage for the rise and fall of this generation of the ancient clan.

Anyone would feel pressured in that situation.

Although Xianle and Wushuang were young, they could still feel the sacred and solemn atmosphere, and their little faces were full of respect.

As the incense slowly burned out...

Gu Fei led his two children slowly out of the ancestral hall.

Just then, a figure walked towards them.

"Greetings, Young Clan Chief!"

The man bowed respectfully.

Gu Fei looked closely and saw that the person who came was none other than Elder Gu Yang, who had long been stationed at the ancestral hall.

Gu Yang, dressed in a gray robe, looked at Gu Fei with an awkward smile.

"Hmph... Once my Soul Clan's grand plan is launched, the ancient clans will be swallowed up by my Soul Clan sooner or later!"

Gu Yang snorted inwardly, but on the surface he still maintained a kind and benevolent expression.

"Elder Gu Yang, there's no need for such formalities."

Gu Fei nodded slightly and responded politely.

We should still be polite.

The moment their eyes met.

A system notification suddenly sounded in Gu Fei's mind:

[Ding! Gu Yang has developed a smug mood, mood value increased by 10!]

Gu Fei felt a chill run down his spine, but his face remained expressionless.

He smiled and exchanged a few pleasantries with Gu Yang, then left the ancestral hall with the two children.

On his way back, Gu Fei frowned slightly, his mind filled with a multitude of thoughts.

"Smug? This old fox is actually feeling smug at a time like this."

"Could it be..."

Gu Fei pondered to himself.

Thinking of this, Gu Fei quickened his pace; he needed to think this over carefully.

However, with Gu Yang's strength as a five-star Dou Sheng, he couldn't cause much of a stir.

Gu Fei already knew that Gu Yang was a spy sent by the Soul Clan.

"Father, slow down!"

Xianle jogged to catch up with Gu Fei and asked in confusion.

Gu Fei looked back and saw that the two little ones were already panting and couldn't keep up with his pace.

"I'm sorry, Father is thinking about some things."

Gu Fei then came to his senses, slowed his pace, and said softly.

"What is Father thinking about?"

Wushuang tilted her head and asked innocently.

"Nothing much, just thinking about some things related to our tribe."

Gu Fei gently shook his head and said with a smile.

The Soul Clan suffered repeated setbacks and heavy losses. First, the two main halls of the Soul Palace were destroyed.

Then came the time when the Bodhi Ancient Tree was born, resulting in the loss of a member of the clan with the bloodline of a ten-star Dou Di.

In the recent incident in the Demon Flame Space, two more five-star Dou Sheng powerhouses were lost.

Logically speaking, the Soul Clan should have suffered a severe blow and need a period of time to recuperate.

But Gu Yang felt smug at this moment.

Without even a second thought, the Soul Clan is bound to make some move!

"If the Soul Clan is going to make a big move, they'll probably choose the weakest one!"

"The Spirit Race!"

Gu Fei thought for a moment, then uttered those two words.

Thinking of this, Gu Fei suddenly stood up.

That's right!

It seems we need to pay close attention to the Eldar's movements during this period.

Just then, Xianle and Wushuang skipped and hopped in.

"Father, are you going to the Spirit Clan?"

Xianle blinked her big eyes and asked.

"Did you hear that?"

Gu Fei was somewhat surprised

"Sister Lingxi seems to be homesick. If Father is going to the Spirit Clan, he can take Sister Lingxi back with him!"

Wushuang nodded and said with an innocent look on her face.

Upon hearing this, Gu Fei couldn't help but reveal a gentle smile.

Although these two children are young, they have already learned to think of others.

"Alright, then I'll take Lingxi back to the Spirit Realm next!"

Gu Fei responded to the two children with a smile.

That's right, the best way is naturally to go to the Eldar in person.

Moreover, staying with the ancient tribe for now hasn't made much progress.

As for collecting the strange fire, judging from the current situation, it will still take some time.

After saying that, Gu Fei got up and left the study, going to the courtyard where Lingxi was.

Lingxi was sitting under an ancient tree, holding an ancient book and studying it intently.

Sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting a soft glow on Lingxi, the fifteen-year-old girl.

Especially her long, snow-white hair, which was particularly dazzling in the sunlight.

Ever since Gu Fei returned from the pharmacopoeia, this girl has become increasingly diligent.

"Lingxi."

Gu Fei called out softly.

"Master."

Lingxi looked up upon hearing the voice and saw that it was Gu Fei. She quickly stood up and bowed.

"No need for formalities. Lingxi, would you like to go home?"

Gu Fei smiled and waved his hand.

Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Lingxi's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.

"Yes, Master, I have indeed missed her. It's been a long time since I've seen my aunt."

Lingxi answered respectfully.

"Alright, then this time, your teacher will take you back."

Gu Fei nodded and said gently.

"Thank you, Master!"

Upon hearing this, Lingxi could not help but reveal joy in her eyes and bowed deeply.
