"Was Miss Xun'er really here?"
Upon hearing Huo Zhi's words, Xiao Yi Xian's beautiful eyes sparkled with an unusual light. She seemed to guess that Xun'er, the ex-wife, had come to reconcile with Gu Fei. As for the outcome... only Gu Fei and Xiao Yi Xian knew.
Xiao Yi Xian looked towards the house, her eyes no longer holding the previous worry. After spending so much time with Gu Fei, she believed he would handle things well and give her a perfect answer.
"Gu Fei!"
Xiao Yi Xian called out to the room. However, due to the seal blocking sound, they were unaware of the situation inside.
Her call received no response.
"Gu Fei must have set up a seal to avoid being disturbed..." Venerable Tian Huo, the most powerful among them, noticed the peculiarity of the bamboo house and explained to the group.
"It seems that his ex-wife still has a strong influence on him... After all, she was someone he deeply loved."
"No matter how decisively he spoke, there's still something he can't let go of in his heart..."
Xiao Yi Xian began to overthink. She believed that Gu Fei was in a bad mood after talking to Xun'er. At that moment, Xiao Yi Xian's mindset seemed to change. She also understood that a man as outstanding as Gu Fei couldn't belong to her alone. Even now, despite other women knowing that she was Gu Fei's girlfriend, many still sought to pursue him.
"It doesn't matter who else stays by Gu Fei's side in the future, as long as he treats me well, just like before!" Xiao Yi Xian thought it through, murmuring to herself. She wasn't trying to possess Gu Fei. She knew that compared to Gu Fei, she was like a star compared to the bright moon. How could the stars ever own the moon? They coexist.
As long as Gu Fei has a place for me in his heart, that's enough.
"Since Gu Fei doesn't want to be disturbed, let's just wait outside." Xiao Yi Xian said, finding a spot to sit down.
Zi Yan, watching everyone sit down, glanced curiously at the bamboo house and thought, "Is Gu Fei locking himself up because he's in a bad mood?"
"From what I've seen of him, he doesn't seem like the type to lock himself away!"
"That Xun'er woman came by... Who knows what she might have done to Gu Fei?"
"I'd better go in and check, so I can feel at ease..." Zi Yan mumbled to herself.
Unconsciously, she walked to the door of the bamboo house, reached out, and slowly pushed it open. As the door opened, a silver seal that isolated the outside world appeared before Zi Yan.
"A Dou Venerate's seal is really powerful, but it can't stop me..."
Zi Yan said as she extended her white, almost transparent hand into the spatial energy barrier. With a few swipes, Zi Yan's body merged with the space seal, and she entered it.
Gu Fei's spatial seal didn't pose any obstacle to Zi Yan.
"This little one truly has amazing spatial talent!" Venerable Tian Huo marveled at Zi Yan's spatial talent, watching her enter the seal. He couldn't help but sigh. Gu Fei was already a monstrous talent, but even his friends were exceptional.
Qing Lin's Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils, Xiao Yi Xian's Woeful Poison Body, Zi Yan's spatial talent...
And the Lion King... well, loyalty could be considered a strength too.
"Who is she? How can someone at the Dou Emperor level break through a Dou Venerate's seal?" Huo Zhi saw Zi Yan enter the seal and was very curious about her. Zi Yan was just a Dou Emperor, while Gu Fei was a Four-Star Dou Venerate.
For Zi Yan to see the Four-Star Dou Venerate's seal as nothing showed her spatial talent was incredible!
...
Inside the room, Gu Fei and Queen Medusa were embracing each other, lost in their own world. Neither of them noticed that a little figure had slipped into the seal.
"Ah..."
Suddenly, a soft, childish exclamation broke the moment. Gu Fei's body trembled as he looked towards the source of the voice, only to see a little purple-haired girl covering her eyes with her hands, yet peeking through her fingers at them.
"Zi Yan?"
Seeing Zi Yan, Gu Fei was momentarily stunned.
"Shame, shame, shame!"
"My eyes aren't clean anymore!"
"I shouldn't have come in. Hurry and put on your clothes, oh no... I'm so embarrassed!" Zi Yan hurriedly covered her eyes and said.
Hearing this, Gu Fei quickly grabbed the blanket that had been kicked to the floor and covered Queen Medusa with it. He then put on some clothes and walked over to Zi Yan.
"Zi Yan, why did you come in?"
"If I hadn't come in, I wouldn't have known you were hiding a beauty!" Zi Yan peered through her fingers, saw Gu Fei dressed, and pouted.
"Uh..."
Hearing this, Gu Fei was momentarily speechless. He didn't know how to explain to Zi Yan. He had thought that with his strength and the seal he set up, anyone who tried to break in would be detected. But he hadn't accounted for this little monster, Zi Yan.
Zi Yan's true form was that of the Ancient Void Dragon. After some training back with her clan, her spatial control had reached an extraordinary level—almost like a bug in the system.
The key was that Zi Yan was a curious little one. While others saw the seal and decided to wait, she just had to go in and check.
Seeing Gu Fei's silence, Zi Yan, with a big heart, patted him.
"Don't worry, Gu Fei, I'll keep this a secret!"
Zi Yan chuckled, looking adorably mischievous.
Previously, Zi Yan had shown hostility towards Xun'er because she was someone Gu Fei disliked. She had also spoken rudely to Huo Zhi because Huo Zhi was someone Gu Fei had rejected.
But now, Queen Medusa had already progressed so far with Gu Fei.
Though Zi Yan didn't fully understand it, she had a sense that what Gu Fei and Queen Medusa were doing was the same thing he had done with Xiao Yi Xian.
Because of this, even though it was their first meeting, Zi Yan showed no hostility towards Queen Medusa lying on the bed.
"A secret?"
Hearing this, Gu Fei twitched his lips, wondering if this little girl was planning to blackmail him.
Was he now going to be reduced to a machine that makes candy for her, devoid of any feelings?
After thinking for a moment, Gu Fei said calmly, "Since I did it, I'll take responsibility. There's no need to keep it a secret."
Zi Yan was surprised to hear this, looking at Gu Fei with wide eyes.
At that moment, Queen Medusa, lying on the bed, also gazed at Gu Fei with tender affection.
"He really is a responsible man!" Queen Medusa thought. She had initially felt shy and embarrassed when Zi Yan barged in, but now, hearing Gu Fei's words, she felt reassured, silently acknowledging she had chosen the right person.
Gu Fei truly was a man worthy of a lifetime's trust.
