Reasoning? The Bigger Fist Is the Reason!

"This friend from the Gu Clan!" 

"I'm not slandering your Gu Clan Elder, I'm just trying to reason with you!"

"The Gu Clan has been taking our Xiao Clan's quota for so many years. This time, we're just asking for one spot back. Is that not fair?"

Despite feeling the intense killing intent from Gu Yao, Xiao Yan still seriously explained.

"Reasoning? Fairness?" 

"Haha! Hahaha!"

Hearing Xiao Yan's logical argument, Gu Yao was so furious that he laughed.

"This Xiao Clan brat has really hit a wall this time. If he gets the quota, Gu Yao will naturally be eliminated. In such a situation, Gu Yao will definitely not let Xiao Yan live!"

"Gu Yao is on the verge of exploding; this kid is in for it!"

Some of the ancient clan members watching began to discuss, their expressions indifferent, as if this matter was nothing more than a joke or farce to them.

In their eyes, a low-level Dou Ancestor was no different from an ant. Someone like that trying to enter the Heavenly Tomb was simply courting death!

"Xiao Yan, let me tell you a rule today. In this world, the one with the biggest fist decides the reason!"

"A few years ago, Gu Li didn't manage to kill you, you were lucky. This time, I want to see who will come to save you. Die..."

As his words fell, Gu Yao's hand seal changed, and a fierce palm strike shot towards Xiao Yan.

With Gu Yao's strength, if this strike landed, the low-level Dou Ancestor Xiao Yan would be directly obliterated.

"Am I really going to die here? I've overestimated the character of the Gu Clan..." Feeling the force behind Gu Yao's attack, Xiao Yan's heart filled with despair.

"Gu Yao, stop!"

As the fierce palm strike approached, a seven-colored light suddenly burst forth, neutralizing the strike that would have turned Xiao Yan into minced meat.

The one who intervened was Xun'er.

Although Xun'er had decided to cut ties with Xiao Yan, she ultimately couldn't bear to see him die in front of her.

"It's Xun'er!" 

"Xun'er saved me!"

Xiao Yan opened his eyes and saw the beautiful figure standing in front of him, his eyes moistening as a warm feeling surged in his heart.

"This trash, I didn't expect someone to help him!" 

"Hehe, I've heard that Miss Xun'er of the Gu Clan has a good relationship with that trash. Seeing it today, the rumors seem true..."

"Back then, Young Master Gu Fei was right to divorce her!"

Around them, more discussions arose.

"Xun'er, move aside!" 

Seeing Xun'er save Xiao Yan, Gu Yao's eyes almost shot flames.

"Gu Yao, let's end this matter here. Xiao Yan won't go to the Heavenly Tomb!" 

Xun'er loudly replied to Gu Yao, not moving aside. She then turned to Xiao Yan with a look of disappointment in her eyes: "Xiao Yan, why can't you see your own strength? With your current power, entering the Heavenly Tomb would be impossible!"

"Forget about honoring your ancestors, you might not even have anyone to honor you next year!"

Xun'er sighed: "Our clan will send guests away today. You should leave with the group and never return!"

"..."

Listening to Xun'er's words, Xiao Yan remained silent. At this point, he knew entering the Heavenly Tomb was impossible.

"I understand, I'll leave soon."

After a moment of silence, Xiao Yan lowered his head.

At that moment, he once again loathed his own weakness. If only he were stronger, Gu Yao wouldn't be able to threaten him.

He wouldn't have been looked down upon by Xun'er, nor would he have been humiliated in front of so many people.

"Sigh, Xiao Yan, come with me!"

At this time, Yao Chen, who had been watching, came to the sky above and took Xiao Yan away.

Yao Lao had considered intervening earlier.

However, after some internal struggle, he ultimately refrained.

Because before Xiao Yan decided to do this, he had knelt before Yao Chen, repeatedly begging him not to interfere, no matter what the Gu Clan's attitude was, even if they wanted to kill him.

Xiao Yan didn't want to implicate Yao Lao or cause the Fallen Star Pavilion to be destroyed because of him.

This left Yao Chen deeply conflicted.

"Gu Yao, are you satisfied now?" 

"He won't come to the Gu Realm again. I hope you won't trouble him in the future!"

Xun'er didn't look at Xiao Yan, but instead locked eyes with the furious Gu Yao.

"Hmph, an ant like him isn't worth my attention!" 

Gu Yao snorted coldly, not wanting to quarrel with Xun'er in front of outsiders. He didn't want to make a spectacle of their internal disputes.

"Alright, I believe each clan has already confirmed their candidates for entering the Heavenly Tomb..." 

Gu Nanhai chose to ignore the previous incident and spoke calmly.

"Boom!"

As his words fell, the ancient gate in the space rift above suddenly erupted with a rumbling sound, and then the gate slowly opened a crack, with blinding light shooting out, illuminating the area.

"Remember, you can only stay in the Heavenly Tomb for three years. After that, it will automatically eject you..." Gu Nanhai said in a deep voice as he looked at the slowly opening ancient gate.

With the gate opening, everyone chose to forget the previous small incident.

All eyes were fixed on the sky.

"Boom!"

In the sky, the crack in the ancient gate grew wider and wider, eventually becoming ten meters wide, with thick ancient energy rolling out like fog.

"Whoosh!"

As the ancient gate opened, several sounds of breaking wind suddenly rang out.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, several figures shot straight into the open gate.

"I'm going in first!"

"Xian Yue, Wushuang, you two behave, don't make your mother angry!"

"Don't worry, father, I'll be good!"

"Brother Gu Fei, don't forget to take me to Dragon Island after you come out!"

Gu Fei smiled and said a few words to Xiao Yi Xian, Cai Lin, and Zi Yan, then his figure flickered as he headed toward the gate.

"Gu Fei, this trip to the Heavenly Tomb is full of unknown dangers. Among the younger generation in our clan, you are the strongest. Take care of them if anything happens!"

Just before Gu Fei entered the ancient gate, a voice transmitted into his ear.

"Brother Gu Fei, wait for me!" 

Xun'er, seeing her chance, quickly followed Gu Fei into the gate, hoping that this would reduce the distance between them after random teleportation.

After Xun'er, the other geniuses from the various clans quickly poured into the Heavenly Tomb gate.

And when the last person entered, the ancient gate slowly became illusory, eventually disappearing completely.
