Chapter 4: Great News, Brother Gu Fei Wants a Divorce!
Chapter 4: Great News, Brother Gu Fei Wants a Divorce!
The young woman's name was Gu Yunyou. Within the entire Gu Clan, her strength was considered quite impressive. With her good looks and decent power, Gu Yunyou had many admirers. Although she couldn't compare to Xun'er, after Xun'er left, Gu Yunyou was seen as a little goddess among the younger generation.
However, she had always secretly admired Gu Fei, the top talent of the Gu Clan's younger generation. She had developed feelings for him long ago but was heartbroken when Gu Fei's first request to the clan leader was to marry Xun'er.
Every night, Gu Yunyou would wonder why she wasn't good enough compared to Xun'er. Xun'er had left the Gu Clan a long time ago, while Gu Yunyou had grown up with Gu Fei. Yet, even the bond of growing up together couldn't surpass the allure of Xun'er.
Despite this, after Gu Fei married Xun'er, Gu Yunyou would still come here every night, reminiscing about him. Gu Fei was so outstanding that she couldn't let go.
Today, seeing Gu Fei again, it seemed that his strength had increased once more. She could no longer gauge his power or his future. Gu Fei was carefully examining his system interface, and Gu Yunyou, propping her chin on her hand, watched him secretly, lost in thought. Her face flushed, and her breath became unsteady.
Gu Fei quickly noticed the disturbance nearby.
"Who's there?!"
He looked over cautiously and saw it was the girl he grew up with, Gu Yunyou. Startled by Gu Fei's sharp gaze, Gu Yunyou feared that he might realize she had been secretly watching him for days.

"Brother Gu Fei, why aren't you with Xun'er?"
She felt a bit anxious, but she noticed that Gu Fei seemed completely different, his eyes distant. In the past, just hearing Xun'er's name would make him smile and soften his gaze. But now, he seemed indifferent, as if he were hearing a stranger's name.
"There's no need for me to accompany Xun'er anymore."
"No need?"
An unusual emotion welled up in Gu Yunyou's heart. Realizing something, she instinctively pressed for more.
"Hmm, no need anymore. Xun'er and I are preparing for a divorce."
Gu Fei looked into Gu Yunyou's eyes. He saw a hint of expectation in them.

The system prompt came at the right time. Gu Fei looked at Gu Yunyou's flushed face and understood. Could it be that this girl had been hoping for his divorce? Could she possibly like him?
Just as Gu Fei was about to speak, a familiar voice interrupted him.
"I won't divorce him!"
Gu Fei and Gu Yunyou both turned towards the source of the voice. It was Xun'er, who had just arrived.

She looked furious, her gaze unfriendly as she stared at Gu Yunyou. Gu Yunyou stepped back, feeling helpless, and looked at Gu Fei. Seeing her instinctively seek his help, Xun'er was about to speak, but Gu Fei cut her off.
"What are you doing here?" Gu Fei's eyes were full of disappointment and anger. He scolded her, "You already have someone else in your heart, so why are you here to disgust me?"
Xun'er bit her lower lip nervously, realizing she was in the wrong. But still, Gu Fei shouldn't be here with Gu Yunyou...!
"Then what are you doing here with Gu Yunyou? If I hadn't come, would you have married her already?" Xun'er's beautiful eyes flashed with anger, her dissatisfaction fueled by her imagination. Even though she was very fond of Brother Xiao Yan, she wouldn't allow Gu Fei to care for Gu Yunyou!

Xun'er glared at Gu Fei and spoke her mind.
"Could it be that you want to divorce me because of her?"
Gu Fei looked at her with disappointment and sighed. Xun'er was still as beautiful and radiant as ever, but she was no longer the little girl he once knew.
"Xun'er, why would you think that?"
"I grew up with this girl. It's normal for me to care about her as an older brother, isn't it? You, of all people, should know why I want a divorce."
Xun'er's eyes were red, yet she stubbornly held Gu Fei's gaze. Girls are sensitive, and she had long noticed that Gu Yunyou had feelings for Gu Fei. Before, Gu Fei always kept his distance from other women, which was fine. But now, Gu Fei was her husband, and even if she didn't like him, she wouldn't allow Gu Yunyou to covet him!
"Are you really going to divorce me?"
"What else can I do? Wear a green hat and watch you offer everything I give you to him?"
Xun'er's gaze wavered, but she refused to lose face in front of Gu Yunyou.

Gu Yunyou stood silently behind Gu Fei, listening to their conversation. She was curious about why Gu Fei suddenly wanted a divorce. Hearing his heavy words, Gu Yunyou sensed something. Could it be that Xun'er had feelings for another man?
Gu Fei didn't want to say more. He frowned slightly and looked out into the endless night.
"Both of you, it's late. Please go home. I need to rest."
Xun'er looked at him in disbelief. He was actually asking her to leave. But Gu Fei's attitude was firm, so she had no choice but to descend the mountain with Gu Yunyou.
Gu Fei returned to his room without further thoughts, reviewed his system interface, and then trained for the entire night.
The next morning, Gu Fei went straight to a grand hall deep within the Gu Clan's territory. He hadn't slept all night, but he had already made up his mind about Xun'er. After half a year of companionship, if he couldn't win her heart, it was better to let go.
So, Gu Fei waited in the hall for the arrival of Gu Yuan. He planned to meet with Gu Yuan and propose the divorce. He had requested to marry Xun'er from Gu Yuan, and now, he was
requesting a divorce.
Gu Fei let out a bitter smile, but then he thought of the emotion points he had gained the night before, and a small sense of relief appeared on his face.
...
After waiting for a while in the Gu Clan's grand hall, a figure silently appeared at the seat of honor. This figure appeared to be around forty years old, looking like an ordinary middle- aged man, dressed in simple linen clothes, with a smile on his face.
This person was Gu Yuan, the leader of the Gu Clan. At this moment, Gu Yuan looked at Gu Fei with a kind gaze. As the clan leader, he was very pleased with Gu Fei's strength as the leader of the younger generation. As Xun'er's father, he also had a favorable impression of his son-in-
law.
Even so, Gu Fei felt immense pressure. After all, standing before him was the leader of the Gu Clan, a man far more powerful than even his grandfather. In this era without a Dou Di, Gu Yuan, with his late nine-star Dou Saint strength, was invincible.
