Chapter 308 - 298: Young Master Feng Wants You Dead

"You’ve invited him?"

Upon hearing Gu Chenfeng’s words, Yang Qingshan’s old face suddenly changed.

Gu Chenfeng had just invited the Patriarch of the Su Family, Su Xiangyang. Who knows what other terrifying people he could invite.

If Su Xiangyang can be persuaded, naturally, so could the higher-ups of the Artifact Refining Pavilion.

Yang Qingshan couldn’t even imagine it.

High above.

Nalan Tian, having noticed something, suddenly stopped and looked fiercely at Yang Qingshan below.

Nalan Tian said coldly, "Yang Qingshan, I don’t care if you’re from the Artifact Refining Pavilion, if you dare harbor ill intentions towards me, even if the Pavilion Master himself comes, I will still kill you today!"

"Yang Qingshan, I’ve trusted you, yet you want to refine the spiritual power of the old Patriarch!" Nalan He shouted angrily, wishing he could tear Yang Qingshan into pieces.

"Father, leave this old man to me." Nalan Xiao said coldly, activating his spiritual power intending to dive down.

"Nalan Patriarch, please wait," Gu Chenfeng quickly intervened, "Leave this old man to me."

Yang Qingshan dared to make a move against Gu Chenfeng, so how could Gu Chenfeng let him go?

Even if Yang Qingshan was truly from the Artifact Refining Pavilion, Gu Chenfeng would not show any mercy.

"Alright." Nalan Xiao nodded slightly.

Yang Qingshan glared at Gu Chenfeng fiercely, "You brat! If I weren’t severely injured, do you think you could trap me with your ice attribute?"

With serious injuries, Yang Qingshan couldn’t break through Gu Chenfeng’s ice attribute by force.

Gu Chenfeng slowly descended, smirking, "Since you’re from the Artifact Refining Pavilion, you must know Elder Xiao, right? I’ll call him over now."

"Elder Xiao?" Yang Qingshan’s old face changed drastically, heart pounding with fear, "Could it be Xiao Hanfeng?"

"Whoosh!"

A strong sound of something slicing through the air was heard, and a dazzling light shot forward with overwhelming momentum.

"Late Stage of Divinity Transformation! There’s also a powerful surge of soul power." Nalan Tian furrowed his old brows, gazing at the light.

Nalan Xiao curiously asked, "Who else has Young Master Feng invited?"

"Such a powerful aura, who could it be?" The head of the Han Family furrowed his brows deeply, filled with curiosity.

Everyone’s gaze was locked onto that rapidly approaching light.

In just a few flashes, an old man in a black robe appeared before Gu Chenfeng, exuding a strong presence.

As everyone got a clear look at the newcomer, their expressions changed dramatically.

"Chief of the Artifact Refining Pavilion, Xiao!"

"It’s actually Chief Xiao! No, he’s now Elder Xiao! He actually invited Elder Xiao."

"It’s really Elder Xiao! That little... Young Master Feng actually invited Elder Xiao from the Artifact Refining Pavilion! Who exactly is Young Master Feng?"

The people of Sumeru City exclaimed in wide-eyed surprise.

"Elder Xiao Hanfeng of the Artifact Refining Pavilion!" Elder Gao Xin and the others were dumbfounded.

"Chief Xiao Hanfeng of the Artifact Refining Pavilion!" The Han Family patriarch and elders exclaimed simultaneously.

Nalan Xiao looked at Xiao Hanfeng in shock, trembling as he said, "No way? He just invited the Su Patriarch, and now he invited Elder Xiao Hanfeng."

"What kind of background does Young Master Feng have?" Nalan Tian looked at Gu Chenfeng in shock, increasingly curious about Gu Chenfeng’s origins.

Gu Chenfeng, at a young age, had already reached the realm of Soul Emergence Stage and possessed an extremely overpowering ice attribute. Such a top-tier talent was difficult for ordinary transcendent powers to cultivate.

Even if capable of cultivation, persuading an Elder of the Artifact Refining Pavilion or the Patriarch of the Su Family was rare.

Though Xiao Hanfeng was not the Pavilion Master, as a newly appointed elder and a Seventh Grade Artifact Refiner, he held a prestigious position in the Cultivation Realm.

Not to mention being an elder of the Artifact Refining Pavilion, just being a Seventh Grade Artifact Refiner would be enough to intimidate even Tribulation Stage experts.

Most importantly, Xiao Hanfeng controlled all the divine weapons and magical treasures of the entire Artifact Refining Pavilion.

Whoever dared cross him could forget about purchasing or trading powerful weapons and magical treasures from the Artifact Refining Pavilion.

"Xiao... Xiao Hanfeng..." Yang Qingshan was filled with terror and despair, shaking uncontrollably as if he’d seen a ghost.

Though Yang Qingshan had guessed that Gu Chenfeng could persuade the higher-ups of the Artifact Refining Pavilion, he only thought it was a powerful Artifact Refiner. Never did he expect Gu Chenfeng to invite an elder.

How much influence would it take to invite such a person?

Just as everyone was in shock at Gu Chenfeng inviting Xiao Hanfeng.

The next scene scared everyone so much that their hearts almost jumped out of their chests.

Xiao Hanfeng looked at Gu Chenfeng, quickly cupped his hands respectfully, and greeted, "Young Master Feng."

Gu Chenfeng responded with a faint smile, "No need for such courtesy, Elder Xiao."

Xiao Hanfeng wouldn’t dare!

Boom!

Upon hearing how Xiao Hanfeng addressed Gu Chenfeng and witnessing his extremely respectful demeanor, everyone felt a massive shock to their minds and froze on the spot.

"Did I see it wrong? Elder Xiao actually addressed him as Young Master Feng!"

"Elder Xiao Hanfeng is so respectful to Young Master Feng! What exactly is his identity?"

"This... How is this possible? Elder of the Artifact Refining Pavilion treating him so respectfully?"

Everyone on the scene, including the Nalan, Gao, and Han Families, was utterly stunned.

Everyone was extremely curious about Gu Chenfeng’s true background.

What terrifying status does he hold to earn such respect from Su Patriarch and Xiao Hanfeng?

Despite racking their brains, no one could figure it out.

Amidst the intense shock, Nalan Tian flashed over to Nalan Ziye, asking quietly, "Ziye, do you really not know Young Master Feng’s background?"

Still in shock, Nalan Ziye snapped back and quickly replied, "Grandfather, he only mentioned he’s a disciple of the Ancient Divine Sect."

"Disciple of the Ancient Divine Sect?" Nalan Tian was taken aback, then frowned and said, "Impossible. Just a disciple couldn’t have invited Su Xiangyang and Xiao Hanfeng."

"I think so too." Nalan Ziye nodded dumbly, suppressing her shock, "He can’t just be a disciple of the Ancient Divine Sect. His real identity must be extremely terrifying."

"I’ve only met him once in the Southern Observation Wilderness, and this encounter was by chance. I can hardly believe his background is so frightening. It’s like a dream."

Nalan Tian smiled slightly, "This also shows that the Nalan Family’s fate is not yet doomed."

In the Nalan Family’s courtyard.

Gu Chenfeng chuckled lightly, "Elder Xiao, this person claims to be from the Artifact Refining Pavilion. Take a good look."

Xiao Hanfeng didn’t even need to look. When outside the city, he had already noticed Yang Qingshan.

Xiao Hanfeng respectfully replied, "Young Master Feng, this person is named Yang Qingshan. Over ten years ago, he was indeed an Artifact Refiner of the Pavilion. However, for stealing royal artifacts and swindling around under the Pavilion’s name, he was long expelled."

"I see," Gu Chenfeng nodded and smiled, "Since he was expelled from the Artifact Refining Pavilion, he has nothing to do with the Pavilion anymore."

"If he has nothing to do with the Pavilion, then let’s kill him."

In extreme fear, Yang Qingshan begged desperately, "Don’t kill me, don’t kill me, Xiao Hanfeng, for the sake of our past friendship, spare my life."
