"Su Dan, Iâve seen him in the Imperial City. The Gao Family truly has the backing of the Su Family."
"I never imagined the Gao Family could invite a steward from the Su Family. I wonder who that young fellow has managed to bring from the Su Family."
"Several hours have passed, and yet, no other Su Family members have been seen. Itâs likely..."
Nalan Xiao and the elders wore extremely solemn expressions, worry filling their hearts.
Nalan Tian frowned slightly, his gaze first sweeping over Su Dan, and then down to Gu Chenfeng.
Nalan Tian seemed somewhat worried as well.
Within the courtyard of the Nalan Family.
Nalan Ziye hurriedly asked, "Brother Feng, have you met him?"
"No," Gu Chenfeng shook his head lightly.
"Not met him?" Nalan Ziyeâs delicate face changed dramatically, her heart nearly leaping out.
Thatâs the Su Familyâs steward, Su Dan.
Holding the position of a steward signifies an extremely high status, and Gu Chenfeng has never met him.
Doesnât this mean Gu Chenfeng knows someone from the Su Family who holds a lesser position than a steward?
"This is bad! This is bad!" Nalan Ziye said with extreme anxiety, "The Gao Family invited a steward from the Su Family, even if you know someone from the Su Family, they might..."
Seeing Nalan Ziye in such a state of panic, Gu Chenfeng calmly smiled and said, "Sister Nalan, donât worry."
"Have the people you invited arrived?" Nalan Ziye asked anxiously once more.
Gu Chenfeng smiled faintly, "They arrived an hour ago."
"What? They arrived an hour ago?" Nalan Ziye was instantly stunned.
Gu Chenfeng smiled faintly, "Sister Nalan, thereâs no need to worry. Itâs just a steward, nothing too concerning."
"Just a steward...only?" Nalan Ziye was stunned again, her heart racing wildly.
Not even considering a steward significant, who exactly did Gu Chenfeng invite?
High above.
Su Dan glanced at the people below, then asked perplexedly, "Patriarch Gao, you called me here so urgently, may I ask for what purpose?"
Gao Yuanshan hurriedly responded respectfully, "Steward Su Dan, hereâs the situation..."
Gao Yuanshan recounted the entire series of events.
"Oh? Someone else knows people from the Su Family?" Su Dan slightly expressed surprise, "Iâd like to know who else knows people from my Su Family. I intend to see whether youâre qualified to destroy an ally of my Su Family."
"The Gao Family has cooperated with my Su Family for many years; if the Nalan Family wants to destroy the Gao Family, it means opposing my Su Family. If you cannot bring someone, donât blame me for leaving you with no path to live!"
"Such bold words, but I donât know if you possess the ability." Gu Chenfeng spoke gently, his figure slowly rising into the air.
Nalan Ziye quickly followed, her beautiful eyes looking at Steward Su Dan.
Nalan Tian transmitted a question, "Young brother, how confident are you? The status of Su Familyâs steward isnât low, if you..."
Before Nalan Tian could finish speaking, Gu Chenfeng transmitted back, "Donât worry, itâs just a steward."
"Just?" Nalan Tian looked at Gu Chenfeng in shock.
Outside Sumeru City.
Hearing Su Danâs arrogant words, Su Xiangyang was so furious his insides churned, wishing to rush forward and slap Su Dan dead.
"You brat! Weâve already invited Steward Su Dan from the Gao Family, where are your people?" Gao Jianfeng shouted angrily at Gu Chenfeng, a smug look on his face.
Gao Yuanshan and the strong members of the Gao Family also revealed smug smiles on their faces.
However.
Just when they were feeling smug.
Upon seeing Gu Chenfeng, Su Danâs old face changed dramatically, freezing in place.
Everyone from Gao Yuanshanâs group focused their gazes entirely on Gu Chenfeng, completely missing the change in Su Danâs expression.
Nalan Tian, Nalan Xiao, and their groupâs attention was on Gu Chenfeng as well, waiting for the person he had invited to show up, none noticing Su Danâs expression.
"Whatâs going on? That old man seems to know this brat. Is he frightened?" Yang Qingshan frowned, murmuring to himself, noticing Su Danâs shocked expression.
And not only him.
Nalan Ziye also noticed Su Danâs terrified expression, incredibly stunned in her heart, "Heâs afraid!"
At this moment.
Nalan Ziyeâs heart was thrown into turmoil, her beautiful eyes looking at Gu Chenfeng, her thoughts racing, "Who exactly is he? The Su Familyâs steward is afraid of him!"
Looking at the astonished Su Dan, Gu Chenfeng smiled faintly and said, "I donât know if Iâm qualified to destroy your Su Familyâs ally, but I know the person Iâve invited can certainly handle you."
Steward Su Dan shivered violently, having guessed whom Gu Chenfeng had invited.
At that moment.
Steward Su Dan felt as though he had fallen into the Eighteen Layers of Hell, filled only with fear and dread.
"Father, that steward Su Dan seems really scared," Nalan Xiao whispered, having already noticed Su Danâs terrified expression.
"Um," Nalan Tian nodded slightly, feeling completely reassured.
But as he felt reassured, Nalan Tian grew increasingly curious about Gu Chenfengâs origin.
What kind of terrifying identity could scare a Su Family steward like this?
"Since theyâve arrived, let them show themselves. I want to see whom youâve managed to invite," Gao Yuanshan sneered, looking as though he was waiting for a show.
"Shut up!" Su Dan suddenly shouted angrily at Gao Yuanshan.
The abrupt shout instantly stunned Gao Yuanshan and his group, cold sweat pouring down their backs.
The many cultivators watching in the city, including the Han Family, were also dumbfounded.
Gao Yuanshan tried to suppress his panic and asked cautiously, "Steward Su Dan, what are you...?"
"Pa!"
Su Dan directly slapped Gao Yuanshan hard, the sound of the slap particularly loud, once again stunning everyone.
Everyone was completely confused.
Wasnât Steward Su Dan invited by the Gao Family?
He hadnât even made a move against Gu Chenfeng, yet he first slapped Gao Yuanshan.
"Gao Yuanshan! Youâve doomed me!" Su Dan shouted angrily, wishing he could swallow Gao Yuanshan whole.
Gao Yuanshan was completely dumbfounded.
What in the world is happening?
"Young Master Feng..." Su Dan quickly turned to Gu Chenfeng.
"Young Master Feng!" Upon hearing Su Dan call Gu Chenfeng "Young Master Feng," the expressions of everyone present changed dramatically, their hearts nearly leaping out.
The Su Familyâs steward referred to Gu Chenfeng as Young Master Feng!
Gu Chenfengâs background, could it be that frightening?
"Young Master Feng..." Nalan Ziye stared wide-eyed at Gu Chenfeng, completely petrified.
However.
Before Su Dan could speak, Gu Chenfeng interrupted, "You should first see the person I invited."
"One hour ago, the person I invited arrived. Arenât you all eager to know whom Iâve invited?"
Upon Gu Chenfengâs words ending.
Su Xiangyang, outside Sumeru City, suddenly shot forward swiftly.
An immensely terrifying aura suddenly spread over the whole of Sumeru City.
Everyone was scared out of their minds, their horrified gaze instantly fixating on the area outside the city.
"Late Stage of Divinity Transformation!" Nalan Tianâs face suddenly changed.
"So strong!" Nalan Xiao exclaimed in shock, "Who is he? This aura is even stronger than Yang Qingshan."
"Patriarch!" Su Dan was completely in despair.
How could Su Dan not recognize Su Xiangyangâs aura?
