BTTH: I married Xun'er, but she refuses to consummate our marriage!

Chapter 324: Overestimating Oneself!



The scorching sun blazed high in the sky, casting its intense heat over the mountain range of the Gu Realm. The air was filled with a suffocating sense of tension. With Gu Fei's earth- shattering strike, the entire mountain collapsed, sending countless rocks flying like meteors in all directions.

Amidst the swirling dust, a figure shot up from the depths of the ground, disheveled and desperate- it was none other than Gu Yang, who had been in hiding for some time.

His wrinkled face was filled with terror, his eyes flickering with fear. The once neat robe he wore was now in tatters, and he floated in mid-air, covered in dust and looking utterly pathetic.

It wasn't surprising!

The power of that strike had almost turned the entire region into ruins. No matter how skilled he was at concealment, there was no place left for him to hide!

"Young Clan Leader, spare me!"

Upon seeing him, he immediately knelt in the air, repeatedly bowing and begging for mercy. His withered hands clutched at Gu Fei's robes as if they were his last hope, like a drowning man grasping at straws.

But deep down, he knew the truth: there was no way he could survive after targeting his family.

Especially after targeting his children!

Looking at Gu Fei's reaction, with the oppressive aura emanating from him, he was already beyond despair.

At that moment, a clear and melodious voice rang out:

"Gu Yang, why did you target Gu Fei's children? What were your intentions?"

Xun'er arrived with a squad of the Black Submerged Army. Her beautiful eyes were burning with anger as she spoke.

On her stunning face was an expression of confusion- she couldn't understand why he would do such a thing.

It was no surprise since she was still unaware of his true identity.

The Black Submerged Army surrounded Gu Yang, their black armor gleaming coldly under the sun. They held their spears at the ready, watching him with sharp, vigilant eyes, prepared to strike at any moment.

"Miss Xun'er, please, beg for mercy on my behalf! This is all a misunderstanding!" he pleaded, latching onto Xun'er as if she were his last lifeline.

Hearing this, Xun'er hesitated. Her bright eyes flashed with a hint of uncertainty, and she lightly bit her lip, lost in thought.

After all, in her mind, Gu Yang had always been a loyal elder of the clan.

For years, he had dutifully guarded the ancestral hall without any missteps. How could such a respected elder do something like this without reason?

The surrounding Gu Clan elders began whispering among themselves, glancing at them with eyes full of suspicion.

"He's not Gu Yang!"

At that moment, Gu Fei's cold voice rang out.

"This person is a spy sent by the Hun Clan."

His sharp gaze locked onto the kneeling figure, his tone icy.

The moment he spoke, the entire valley fell into a deathly silence. Everyone's eyes widened in disbelief as they looked at Gu Yang.

"What?!"

She gasped, her beautiful face filled with shock.

The surrounding members were also stunned, gasping as cold sweat drenched their backs. If his words were true, it would mean that for years, all the clan's secrets had been passed on to the Hun Clan!

The thought sent chills down everyone's spines.

Under the skeptical gazes of the crowd, Gu Yang's hunched figure suddenly straightened.

He slowly raised his head, a twisted smile creeping onto his lips.

"Heh, you truly are extraordinary. You even saw through my identity!"

His voice turned cold and hoarse, completely different from before. His white hair, hanging down in front of his face, parted to reveal a pair of eyes filled with malice and murderous

intent.

That gaze was filled with viciousness and cruelty, completely unlike the kind, elder figure Xun'er had once known.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

That's right! Since he had been exposed, there was no need to continue the act!

"Gu Yang's soul was forcefully fused with mine by Lord Nihility a hundred years ago. All these years, I've kept a low profile, avoiding Gu Yuan and Gu Lie."

He spoke slowly, his voice carrying a hint of pride. A wicked grin spread across his dry face, as if he had finally shed his disguise.

"I could have continued hiding, even successfully completing the mission entrusted to me by the clan. Unfortunately, I failed."

Before he finished speaking, the air around him grew heavy. A terrifying aura erupted from within him, as if he were ready to explode at any moment.

"He really is from the Hun Clan!"

Xun'er shouted angrily, about to rush forward and end him herself.

The surrounding members also glared at him with fury.

The clan members clenched their fists, itching to tear this long-hidden traitor apart.

However, at that very moment, his energy began to grow dangerously unstable. Black streams of energy snaked around his body like serpents, emitting a menacing aura.

"If I die, taking Gu Yuan's daughter with me would be worth it!"

Gu Yang cackled, his eyes glinting with madness. His frail body began to swell violently, on the verge of exploding.

As a five-star Dou Saint, his self-destruction would be enough to obliterate everything within

a radius of tens of miles. Even a six-star Dou Saint would not dare to withstand such an

explosion head-on.

Seeing that he was about to detonate himself, the others turned pale.

The massive energy buildup would be impossible to defend against, and everyone present,

including Xun'er, would be doomed!

But just as disaster seemed inevitable, Gu Fei's calm voice rang out:

"You overestimate yourself.."

He raised his hand gently, and a massive spatial rift suddenly appeared before Gu Yang. The

rift opened like a giant mouth, exuding a terrifying devouring force.

Boom!

With a muffled sound, the immense energy from the self-destruction was instantly swallowed up by the spatial rift. The entire process was smooth and effortless.

As the dust settled, the scene became clear. Gu Fei stood in place, calm and composed, as if

the catastrophic event moments earlier had been nothing more than child's play.

At that moment, everyone stared at him in shock.

It was only now that they began to realize just how powerful the young clan leader had

become.

With the strength of an eight-star Dou Saint, he had effortlessly neutralized a deadly disaster. Such power was reminiscent of Gu Yuan himself.

In an instant, the entire realm was shaken. Countless young people gazed at his figure in awe, their eyes filled with reverence and admiration.

The internal crisis within the clan had finally been resolved by his swift and decisive actions. And the strength he displayed had revitalized the entire Gu Clan.
