Beside the bamboo pavilion stood a waterfall cascading from the mountain peak, pouring downward like a silver galaxy hanging upside down. It struck the deep pool at the foot of the mountain with thunderous force, sending countless sprays of water crashing against massive rocks.
Layers of mist filled the forest, soaking the already lush greenery until it appeared even more vibrant and alive.
Within this hazy mist, the figure of a young girl seemed all the more spirited and ethereal.
She wore a simple green robe. Her figure was tall and slender, and though she was only fifteen, her body had already developed faint yet eye-catching curves.
Even her graceful silhouette standing quietly beside the mountain waterfall was enough to entrance countless painters—as if she herself were a living masterpiece of heaven and earth.
Yet if one looked past her jet-black hair to her face, even the naturally exquisite scenery would pale in comparison.
Though traces of youthful innocence remained, her delicate features already possessed a beauty capable of driving countless young prodigies mad.
Gu Xun'er stood silently atop the bamboo pavilion, calmly sensing the aura of heaven and earth at this place.
The moisture carried in the mist made her feel at ease, while the deafening roar of the waterfall—after being weakened by several layers of formations—produced a peculiar, almost soothing rhythm.
At that moment, a ghostlike black shadow quietly stirred behind her, eventually condensing into an elderly woman draped in black robes.
"Young Miss."
The old woman bowed respectfully toward the girl in green.
This girl was not only the pearl of the Gu Clan—but its future.
"Aunt Ling, is there something?" Gu Xun'er asked without turning around, still listening to the resonance of the waterfall.
Ling Ying paused briefly before speaking in her aged voice, "It concerns news about the Xiao Clan's Imperial Heir."
At those words, the girl's body trembled slightly. She turned around, revealing a face beautiful enough to dim the heavens, her delicate brows knitting together.
"You mean… Xiao Yan?"
"Yes." Ling Ying nodded and produced a jade slip.
Seeing it, Gu Xun'er frowned even deeper.
Ever since accompanying her father on a visit to the Xiao Clan, her father and the clan elders had finalized a political marriage between the Gu Clan and the Xiao Clan.
And the chosen pair was naturally her—the Gu Clan's jewel—and the Xiao Clan's young Imperial Heir.
Gu Xun'er had some dissatisfaction with the decision, but she never openly opposed it.
Born into such a clan, she possessed things ordinary people could never obtain even after ten lifetimes of effort—peerless bloodline talent and near-limitless cultivation resources, enough to carry her straight to Dou Sheng.
But privileges came with burdens.
The rise and fall of the clan was a responsibility she could not escape.
Still, deep down, she felt instinctive resistance toward marrying a man she had never met.
Especially since, not long after the engagement was set, Ling Ying had reported numerous unsavory rumors about Xiao Yan.
Two female alchemists from the Pill Tower.An affair with Yao Ling, the Saintess of the Yao Clan.
His flirtatious reputation was rare even among geniuses of the Ancient Clans.
While multiple wives were not unusual for powerful men, that luxury depended on worth.
For a girl aiming for Nine-Star Dou Sheng—or even the legendary Emperor realm—accepting such a womanizer as her future partner was simply intolerable.
After a moment's hesitation, Gu Xun'er extended her slender hand and took the jade slip.
But as the information flowed into her mind, her once serene, lotus-like expression darkened.
"This man is nothing but a beast ruled by his lower half," she snorted coldly.
The jade slip was filled with accounts of Xiao Yan chasing women—behavior that, in the Gu Clan, belonged to useless heirs who lived off their family name.
"Breeding stallion" was an apt description.
However, when Xiao Yan's cultivation and battle records surfaced in her mind, shock finally appeared on her face.
According to the records, during the half year after leaving the Xiao Clan, Xiao Yan had remained at the Dou Huang realm.
Yet not long ago, with peak Dou Huang cultivation, he defeated over twenty Dou Zong experts in succession.
Such terrifying combat power was something even Gu Xun'er herself lacked confidence in achieving.
She had only just stepped into the Nine-Star Dou Huang realm—barely different from Xiao Yan back then.
But fighting more than twenty Dou Zongs alone?
She wasn't certain she could manage it.
And what followed was even more astonishing.
In the next six months, Xiao Yan's cultivation skyrocketed as if strapped to a rocket—advancing nearly one star every month.
At the Dou Zong level, even Gu Clan elites considered half a year per star an extraordinary feat.
Yet this man reached Five-Star Dou Zong in just half a year.
As if that weren't enough—
His alchemy had reached peak Seventh Grade.
If a sixteen-year-old Five-Star Dou Zong was rare within a thousand years of the Ancient Seven Clans' history, then a sixteen-year-old peak Seventh-Grade alchemist was outright unprecedented.
No wonder he had been named the Xiao Clan's Imperial Heir before even reaching sainthood.
Gu Xun'er finished reviewing the jade slip, her expression heavy.
Then she crushed it in her hand.
"Xiao Yan, no matter how monstrous your talent is, I will defeat you with my own hands.
I will prove to my father and the elders that the Gu Clan can thrive even without the Xiao Clan!
Marrying a womanizer like you—I refuse.
If Dou Sheng isn't enough to surpass you… then I'll reach Dou Di.
True strength doesn't come from ancestral bloodlines or endless resources—
It comes from the heart of a powerhouse."
Beside the roaring waterfall, the girl clenched her pale fist tightly.
Far away, in the Northwestern Continent, within the inheritance land of the Seven-Colored Tribe, Xiao Yan and the others were already preparing for their next phase of cultivation.
"So, it seems you've all chosen to follow this brat?" the First Ancestor chuckled, looking at Medusa and her two attendants.
Medusa's face flushed slightly.
"Alright, alright—enough teasing." The First Ancestor waved his hand, smiling, then pointed at a nearby blood lake. "Go. Refine the energy and strange substances within it, and your strength will rise rapidly."
Medusa glanced at Xiao Yan.
"Let's go."
Xiao Yan grinned and shrugged.
Next—
It was time to bury his head and work his ass off.
