Meeting with the Clan Leaders!

"You're too kind!"

Gu Fei smiled slightly, his expression showing humility. 

Although he respected a senior like Ling Yuan, his demeanor was calm and composed, with an air of ease.

This confidence did not come from nowhere. He was no longer the junior who once had to look up to the strong.

With the cultivation of a Seven-Star Dou Saint and the creation of the terrifying Dou Technique Angry Buddha Lotus Flame, he now had the right to stand as an equal with these powerful elders.

Moreover, he was always neither arrogant nor servile. This composure only made her look at him in a new light.

"This time, it was a coincidence that my disciple wanted to visit her home. I happened to notice that the Ling Clan's space was completely sealed off... realizing something was wrong, I requested the clan leader to intervene."

He explained slowly, and as he spoke, he glanced casually at Ling Xi behind him.

"Yes, Nihility Devouring Flame used some method to seal off our entire realm, and we were completely unaware of it. It's truly strange," she responded with a puzzled look.

As the head of her clan, she prided herself on knowing every corner of the Ling Realm. 

Yet, this time, she hadn't even noticed that the space was sealed!

No matter how she thought about it, something felt off...

"It's normal for you to not notice, even I wouldn't have been able to sense it if I were far away!" 

At this moment, Gu Yuan's dignified voice rang out.

"Because Nihility Devouring Flame swallowed your entire realm into his stomach!" 

He extended his hands, drawing a circle in the air, as he explained.

With those words, everyone present was left speechless. Even her usually composed face showed a look of disbelief.

"Swallowed an entire realm?" 

Ling Yuan's slender body trembled slightly, clearly shaken to the core by the revelation.

How could something like this be possible?

Who could have imagined that Nihility Devouring Flame possessed such a terrifying ability?

However, unlike the shocked reactions around him, Gu Fei's heart remained calm.

As someone who had transmigrated, he wasn't surprised by such bizarre abilities.

"In any case, the Tunling Clan's abilities have resurfaced in this world, and they must be stopped." 

Her clear voice sounded again, this time tinged with a cold killing intent.

When she mentioned that name, her beautiful eyes flashed with icy hatred.

That ancient clan posed an immense threat to the world, able to devour the Dou God bloodline of others to strengthen themselves.

If such power were allowed to roam unchecked, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Indeed!" 

"This matter cannot be delayed any further." 

"It seems it's time to gather Yan Jin, Lei Ying, Yao Dan, Shi Yi... for a meeting!"

Gu Yuan mused for a moment before speaking.

The names he just mentioned were the leaders of other ancient clans.

Each one was a renowned figure on the Dou Qi Continent, their strength unfathomable.

"Gu Clan Leader is right, that is the best course of action!" 

Ling Yuan immediately agreed.

This was exactly what she had hoped for. Only by uniting the other ancient clans could they stand a chance against the Hun Clan's ambitions.

Only then would they have a chance to survive in this world.

"I will handle the arrangements to notify the other clans." 

Her delicate figure straightened as she prepared to give the order for her clan members to send messages to the other four clans.

"Wait!" 

Just then, a clear voice suddenly rang out.

Gu Fei stood there with a thoughtful expression on his face, and everyone looked at him curiously.

"I believe this matter shouldn't be rushed!" 

Gu Yuan and Ling Yuan exchanged glances.

Even the elders of the Ling Clan looked confused, not understanding why Gu Fei would oppose the decision.

Seeing the puzzled faces around him, he continued to explain.

"I think if those four clan leaders all leave their clans at the same time, it might give the Hun Clan an opportunity. It would be better to have them make arrangements for their clans first before coming."

He looked around at the crowd, his lips curling into a slight smile.

At these words, everyone suddenly understood. 

Even Gu Yuan's stern eyes flashed with approval, clearly impressed by his foresight.

Ling Yuan stood stunned for a moment. 

Of course!

The Hun Clan had always been cunning. They must've planned this for many years. 

Since they had attacked them, it was possible they could target the other clans as well.

Hun Tiandi had left so easily- there might be a trap! 

He could be waiting for the other clan leaders to leave, planning to strike while the tiger was away from the mountain and attack their clans!

As expected of the young leader of the Gu Clan! 

Not only did he possess extraordinary cultivation at such a young age, but his foresight had also earned the admiration of everyone present.

"Very well, Young Master's words will be passed on to our messengers!" 

She quickly snapped out of her thoughts and nodded in agreement.

As the conversation ended, the Ling Clan began cleaning up the aftermath.

The entire realm was littered with the bodies of clan members, some of whom had been so thoroughly burned that not even their remains were left- only scorched marks remained.

Many clan members knelt on the ground, weeping loudly.

The mournful cries echoed across the land, as if trying to tear apart the sky itself. A blanket of sorrow covered the entire Ling Realm. 

In such a short time, the Ling Clan had paid a heavy price.

Ling Xi stood among the crowd, her eyes filled with tears as she took in the horrifying scene before her.

Her clear eyes brimmed with sorrow and anger, and her slender body trembled slightly, clearly overwhelmed by the devastation.

At that moment, a warm hand gently rested on her shoulder.

When she turned to look, she saw it was her master.

It naturally pained to see his beloved disciple suffering. He stood silently beside her without speaking.

In this world, there are some things that simply cannot be avoided.

She must learn to be strong and grow through these hardships.

"Why did this happen? What did we do wrong?" 

Tears finally streamed down her face as she choked out her words.

He sighed softly. 

This kind of pain wasn't something that could be eased with a few words.

"Ling Xi, remember. Hatred is a double-edged sword."

"It can make you stronger, but it can also cause you to lose yourself."

Gu Fei's voice was low, but each word seemed to pierce her heart.

"Master is right! I can't keep crying. Crying is useless. I will turn this sadness and anger into strength!"

Hearing her master's words, she wiped her tears away with determination.

"Good. Now that's the disciple I raised!" 

Seeing the rekindled fire in her eyes, he nodded in satisfaction.
