Chapter 50: The Snake-People Tribe’s Heritage? Still No Match!
The figure suspended in the air gradually became clearer, and Yun Yun's beautiful eyes sparkled with a special light as she felt a sense of reassurance for the first time.
Yun Yun experiences a sense of reassurance, emotion value +100
As the leader of the Misty Cloud Sect, she had always been the one to protect thousands of people on her own. She had almost never been protected like this before, and the only two times it happened were because of Gu Fei. Moreover, Gu Fei had a youthful appearance and such formidable strength.

Gu Fei landed beside Yun Yun. Before he could speak, Yun Yun sincerely thanked him, "Thank you, you've saved me again!"
Yun Yun experiences affection, emotion value +100
Gu Fei gave her a faint smile, looking as calm and serene as ever, a stark contrast to the dominant figure who had just fiercely protected her. Yun Yun looked into his eyes, her gaze bright, and she lowered her black hood.
Originally, she thought that after their last parting, they would never meet again.

Unexpectedly, in this moment of danger, it was Gu Fei who had saved her once more. At this moment, Yun Yun's feelings for Gu Fei were nearly overflowing. Although she didn't fully understand the emotions stirring within her, she wanted to be closer to him.
However, unlike Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin, who had no burdens and could stay by his side, Yun Yun had an entire sect to lead.
"It's nothing," Gu Fei said with a composed smile.
If it weren't for the system's emotion value prompts, Gu Fei would never have noticed the fluctuations in Yun Yun's mood. That warm palm seemed to press against her back again, making her heart tremble.
Gu Fei momentarily paused as he heard the system's prompts, his expression changing slightly.
She carried too many responsibilities, things she couldn't let go of even if she wanted to.

Her feelings for him went beyond mere affection; there was something more.
She stood calmly beside him, her face cold and noble under the black hood, with her long hair cascading down.
Yun Yun experiences joy, emotion value +100
Through the emotion values provided by Yun Yun, Gu Fei understood some of her thoughts. There was no need for him to force Yun Yun to give up everything and follow him. After their brief conversation, Gu Fei was ready to leave. Both he and Yun Yun had their own paths to follow, and their destiny only allowed for this brief intersection. After this, they would go their separate ways, like two lines that would never meet again.
Gu Fei decided not to voice these thoughts, as he knew Yun Yun would understand, even if she didn't want to.
On the other side, the Snake - People Tribe members, who had been so arrogant earlier, now looked at this mysterious powerhouse with fear, not daring to act recklessly. After all, Gu Fei's strength was beyond their imagination. Even the combined attack of five Dou Kings, the 'Five Snake Poison Seal', had been easily broken by this man. Unless those elders of the tribe intervened, no one dared to throw their lives away.
One of the older Snake - People Tribe leaders, Yin Shi, looked at Gu Fei with trepidation before quickly heading back to the holy city. After finishing his conversation with Yun Yun, Gu Fei fell silent for a moment. Yun Yun knew Gu Fei was going to leave, but she couldn't stop him.

But just as she watched Gu Fei preparing to leave, he suddenly paused.
Yun Yun experiences confusion, emotion value +100
Gu Fei's expression remained unchanged as he quietly informed her, "A few of the old monsters are coming to support their younger tribe members."
He had just sensed that in the holy city of the Snake - People Tribe, four dormant Dou Emperor auras had suddenly started moving. Originally, no matter how they fought with the Snake- People Tribe or how many of their people Gu He and Yun Yun killed in the holy city, those four Dou Emperor auras hadn't moved. Gu Fei knew very well who these four people were; they were the backbone of the Snake-People Tribe. However, due to their advanced age, they rarely took action unless it was a critical moment. They refrained from fighting because it would consume their vital energy, which was the reason they had lived so long.
Yun Yun frowned and looked towards the distant sky in the direction of the Serpent Tribe's holy city. Though she had reached the Dou Emperor level, she was far inferior to those four elders. She could only vaguely sense a powerful and overbearing aura rapidly approaching.
"My Snake - People Tribe is not to be trifled with!" a sharp voice echoed. The nearby Snake- People Tribe members looked up, their faces filled with joy and reverence. "Those four old monsters are finally making a move, huh?" Gu Fei thought as he saw four elderly serpent women quickly flying out of the city. In an instant, four overwhelmingly oppressive auras closed in as the four stern-looking elderly snake women hovered in the air, their Dou Qi forming wings behind them. Their eyes all focused intently on Gu Fei.
Standing beside Gu Fei, Yun Yun murmured in disbelief, "Four Dou Emperors?"
"And the Snake-People Tribe is known for their combined attack techniques. The power of the four combined far surpasses that of a single Dou Emperor, reaching even the Dou Ancestor level! This is bad," Yun Yun said with a look of alarm on her delicate face. She glanced anxiously at Gu Fei. She alone was no match for these four.
Meanwhile, Gu He and his group, who had previously thought the battle was won thanks to Gu Fei's intervention, also turned pale. The information they had gathered on the Serpent Tribe had not mentioned these four Dou Emperors at all. They hadn't expected the Serpent Tribe to have such a formidable heritage. Moreover, with Gu He's experience, it was clear that these four were not ordinary Dou Emperors; they were among the elite.
Even one of these Dou Emperors could easily crush Gu He's group, not to mention the large Snake-People Tribe army and the Snake-People Tribe's eight clans, who were still converging on this location. Gu He couldn't help but regret not retreating sooner. He sighed, knowing that escaping now would be nearly impossible.
However, while Yun Yun, Gu He, and the others were worried, Gu Fei's face remained calm, showing no signs of disturbance even with the sudden appearance of the four Dou Emperors.
