"Whoosh!"
In the blink of an eye, Su Xiangyang had arrived in front of Gu Chenfeng.
The gaze of everyone present fell upon Su Xiangyang.
They were all very curious about who from the Su Family Gu Chenfeng had invited.
But when everyone saw clearly, no one recognized Su Xiangyang.
Even Nalan Tian and Gao Yuanshan saw Su Xiangyang for the first time and had no idea about his identity.
However.
The gravely injured Yang Qingshanâs old face changed drastically, exclaiming in shock, "Patriarch Su Xiangyang of the Su Family!"
Yang Qingshanâs heart raced wildly; he could hardly believe the person Gu Chenfeng invited was the Patriarch of the Su Family.
What on earth is Gu Chenfengâs background?
How could he possibly have persuaded Su Xiangyang?
One must know that the Su Family is not what it used to be.
Especially after the sale of the Profound Soul Bodhi Pill, the Su Family has become a formidable force in the Cultivation Realm, backed by fearsome Tribulation Stage powerhouses, and has allied with the Artifact Refining Pavilion.
Numerous major powers in the Cultivation Realm have visited the Su Family, with many strong cultivators and powerful alchemists as well as artifact refiners scrambling to join.
Today, the Su Family has become a giant in the Cultivation Realm, with a status equal to the Ancient God Mountain Commerce Association.
Yet for such a powerful giant, Gu Chenfeng was able to invite the Patriarch of the Su Family; what an incredible privilege!
Yang Qingshan simply could not imagine.
Nalan Ziye glanced at Su Xiangyang and softly inquired, "Brother Feng, who is he?"
Gu Chenfeng smiled faintly, "The Patriarch of the Su Family."
"The Patriarch of the Su Family?" Nalan Ziyeâs pretty face underwent a dramatic change, her eyes instantly widening to the extreme.
As Nalan Ziye was in shock.
The terrified and desperate Su Dan hurriedly paid his respects, saying, "Patriarch!"
"What? Patriarch?" Nalan Tianâs old face violently trembled.
Nalan Xiaoâs eyes widened in fear, exclaiming, "He... he is the Patriarch of the Su Family?"
"He is the Patriarch of the Su Family!" Gao Yuanshan and several elders including Gao Xin were scared out of their wits on the spot.
"How is it possible... How could that brat manage to invite the Patriarch of the Su Family?" Gao Jianfeng was dumbfounded, his eyes filled with deep fear.
Gao Jianfeng was utterly hopeless.
"Itâs actually the Patriarch of the Su Family!"
"Is he Su Xiangyang?"
"Who on earth is that kid? He was actually able to invite the Patriarch of the Su Family!"
The countless cultivators watching were in an uproar, exclamations continuing one after another.
High above a pavilion.
Han Fei immediately recognized Su Xiangyang and exclaimed, "Patriarch, heâs the Patriarch of the Su Family, Su Xiangyang!"
The head of the Han Family was shocked, saying, "Patriarch Su Xiangyang of the Su Family!"
The Grand Elderâs eyes bulged wide open, exclaiming in disbelief, "To be able to invite Su Xiangyang, that kid is terrifying."
"Itâs a good thing we didnât take action; that kid indeed has a significant background to have invited Su Xiangyang!" An elder couldnât help exclaiming, secretly glad they didnât make the wrong decision.
Han Feiâs face was filled with terror, saying, "Patriarch, Elder, he must be that Golden Core Stage youth, or else itâs impossible to have invited the Patriarch of the Su Family!"
If the Han Family and Gao Family joined forces, it would be a path of self-destruction.
High up in the sky.
Su Xiangyang glared fiercely at Su Dan, coldly saying, "Do you know what mistake youâve made?"
Su Dan was so frightened that he immediately knelt in the void, fearfully explaining, "Patriarch, I didnât know the Gao Family was targeting Young Master Feng, or else I wouldnât dare to offend Young Master Feng even if I had ten thousand guts."
Su Xiangyangâs face remained expressionless as he said, "You committed a mistake that even the Su Familyâs clansmen cannot tolerate!"
Boom!
Hearing this, Su Danâs head suddenly felt like it exploded, becoming instantly rigid.
Su Dan knew very well that Su Xiangyang was sentencing him to death.
At this moment.
A strong desire for survival surged in his heart, and Su Dan desperately kowtowed and pleaded, "Patriarch, spare my life, I really didnât know it was Young Master Feng, please spare my life."
Su Xiangyangâs expression did not change at all, remaining expressionless.
Su Dan then turned to Gu Chenfeng, kowtowing and pleading, "Young Master Feng, spare my life! I really didnât know it was you. If I had known the Gao Family was targeting Young Master Feng, I would have been the first to kill Gao Yuanshan!"
Seeing the previously arrogant Su Dan now kowtowing and pleading, everyone present was petrified.
"The Gao Family is finished..." Seeing Su Dan kowtowing and pleading in terror, Gao Yuanshan looked at everyone, utterly hopeless.
Especially Gao Jianfeng, whose fear and despair were indescribable.
Of all the people to provoke, they just had to provoke Gu Chenfeng; it was simply courting death.
Gao Jianfeng regretted it so much that his intestines turned green.
Just as everyone was in shock and terror.
The next scene maximized their fear.
Su Xiangyang looked at Gu Chenfeng and respectfully cupped his fists and bowed, saying, "Young Master Feng, Su Danâs mistake is unforgivable. As the Patriarch, I cannot escape blame; I do not ask for your forgiveness; please handle it as you see fit."
At this moment.
Nalan Tian and Gao Yuanshan, along with everyone from all directions, were all stunned.
The Patriarch of the Su Family actually treated Gu Chenfeng with such respect.
Even though they saw it with their own eyes, they would rather it be a dream than believe it to be real.
That was the Patriarch of the Su Family, a name that shook the Cultivation Realm.
Especially Nalan Ziye, who was dumbfounded, her mouth agape wide enough to fit an egg.
Though she guessed that Gu Chenfeng had a significant background, she didnât expect it to be this terrifying.
So terrifying that even the Patriarch of the Su Family had to be respectful.
Shocking!
Absolutely shocking!
Gu Chenfeng quickly helped Su Xiangyang up from his bow, smiling faintly, "Patriarch Su, youâre exaggerating; itâs just a small matter. I donât blame you; thereâs no need for such self-reproach."
"The reason I invited you was solely to deal with the Gao Family. Now that everything is resolved, Patriarch Su, please take him away. The remaining matters will be left to the Nalan Family."
Hearing this.
Su Dan completely breathed a sigh of relief, finally escaping a crisis, feeling a sense of happiness like coming back to heaven from hell.
But at this moment.
"Boom!"
"Puff!"
Su Xiangyang suddenly struck Su Danâs skull with a ferocious palm, the terrifying force causing Su Dan to spit blood, and his Nascent Soul shattered on the spot.
The sudden scene.
Shocked everyone present.
Even Gu Chenfeng was startled, looking at Su Xiangyang in disbelief.
"Fa... father..." Su Dan looked at Su Xiangyang in utter despair.
He couldnât believe that Gu Chenfeng hadnât intended to kill him, yet Su Xiangyang would kill him with his own hands.
No one expected Su Xiangyang to be so ruthless and merciless.
Su Xiangyang said without a change in expression, "Though Young Master Feng chooses not to kill you, I, as Patriarch, cannot spare you. Young Master Feng has shown great favor to my Su Family, and I cannot tolerate any disrespect towards him from any clan member."
"If I do not kill you, I would be unworthy of Young Master Fengâs favor, unworthy of his trust, and unworthy of Shisan. You have committed an unforgivable crime against the Su Family; if I do not kill you, I will never be at peace."
"Boom!"
Su Xiangyangâs palm shook violently, and with a loud explosion, the terrible force sent Su Dan plummeting down to Sumeru City, creating a massive crater.
Su Danâs Nascent Soul was shattered, and he perished on the spot.
