Chapter 867: Chapter 771: Catastrophe Level? _2
He was also one of the earliest to possess the strength of a Senior Partner.
However, more than two years have passed, and he is still hovering at the level of Senior Partner.
Upon hearing the news of Tao Yuâs return, he felt quite conflicted.
The current strength of Tao Yu might just be the very goal he has been pursuing all his life!
Although he had been defeated by Tao Yu in the past, the rate of Tao Yuâs growth still shocked him.
Hearing the name again made him feel somewhat bewildered.
âŠ
âRight, since he was your contemporary and youâve had some interactions, follow me later when he visits to ease the atmosphere.â
An old-fashioned middle-aged man with a meticulous demeanor said solemnly.
He was the current Chief Executive Officer of the Inner City!
He was also Gantâs father and the Family Head of the Gan Family.
Though not the strongest in the Gan Family, he was a prominent figure, a skilled World Breaker.
âEase the atmosphere? Could it be that the Eight-Armed Vajra will come too?â
âAccording to recent feedback, he will come. Although he hasnât joined the Chaoyang Society, they have always maintained a fairly good relationship, perhaps this time he comes in support of the Chaoyang Society.â
Gan Hao said with a steady tone.
âComing in support of the Chaoyang Society? Is it worth it?â
Gant was also somewhat surprised; after all, the Gan Family had never unduly interfered in the rivalry between the Chaoyang Society and the Inner City, though sometimes taking sides, they generally followed the rules.
But Gant also understood, with an organization like the Chaoyang Society, if they cannot be turned into one of our own, conflicts will inevitably escalate, and the familyâs stance against the Chaoyang Society is becoming increasingly evident.
Yuan Force needs to accumulate continuously, little by little. Each Pioneer taking a part means lesser overall gains, so itâs necessary to push to the limits to maximize benefits.
The cost must be reduced to the lowest!
This is a fundamental position issue; unless they change, the discord cannot be reconciled!
âItâs impossible for us to be the ones changingâŠâ
Gantâs thoughts were also complex at that momentâŠ
â
Gan Hao looked at his son and his expression remained calm.
âSince that last defeat to him, your motivation vanished. If this continues, even if he halts now, you wonât catch up to him.â
When Gant first arrived in the New Development Zone, he was full of spirit and stepped into the level of a Senior Partner early.
But after getting severely injured by the then-rising Eight-Armed Vajra, he never quite recovered.
Despite having talent and resources, without that motivation, his future achievements would be limitedâŠ
âMy son does want to catch up, but he grows too quickly, and now he has even caught the attention of the Suns, possibly even marrying into their family. Nowadays, he even warrants a respectful treatment from father, IâŠâ
Gant sighed; the gap was indeed too large.
âHe is indeed a genius, with exceptional talent. However, itâs a pity he got on the wrong track; his future is uncertain.â
Gan Hao patted Gantâs head as he spoke.
These words stirred something in Gant, who then inquired as if seeking advice,
âIs it about those above?⊠This has happened before, those two families are still okay, right? Wasnât it the Assassinâs League last time when Huang Family had troubles?â
âThatâs true, but his personal Talent is too high. If it were Sunsâ own people being protected, it wouldnât matter much, but heâs an Outsider, and his end probably wonât be peaceful.â
Gan Hao sighed, seemingly with a tinge of regret.
âHowever, this matter is unrelated to us. Our Gan Family has managed to maintain our current position by staying as neutral as possible, and even the twelve families need forces like ours to govern the Inner City. As long as we show any obvious bias, even toward the Xing Family, the outcome will not be favorable. You must remember this.â
Gan Hao spoke somewhat sternly. Although the Gan Family was the foremost family in the Inner City, in Floating City, it was nothing, not to mention compared to the top twelve Starshine familiesâsome secondary families with one or two Catastrophe Level members could easily create âaccidentsâ.
Only by staying absolutely neutral, could they maintain their current status.
Occasionally, they could offer minor support to one side, but absolutely not overstep!
Itâs crucial to understand the balance!
âDonât believe those nonsense from your second uncle; heâs already doomed.â
âI understand that it is because of our fundamental stance that we were able to enter the New Development Zone so quickly.â
Gant nodded hurriedly.
âAlright, as long as you understand, letâs goâŠâ
However, just as Gan Hao was preparing to leave with Gant, a voice came from above, yet the sound did not spread outward, it was directed only towards their ears,
âDid I hear that the Chaoyang Society isnât following the rules?â
Upon hearing this voice, Gan Haoâs expression suddenly changed.
âMr. CarterâŠâ
Gan Hao quickly walked out of the room and into the courtyard, where he saw a middle-aged man who had appeared there.
The voice had fallen from the sky, but now the person was already in the courtyard.
Carter Gundy!
A member of the Gundy Family, ranked seventh among the Starshine twelve, and also the discoverer of the Gang Qi pathway.
As an old fox, Gan Hao felt uneasy seeing Carter coming in person.
Being able to lead the first family of the Inner City, the Gan Family could stir enough face to invite external support from a Catastrophe Level bigwig.
But this current moment, the visitor himself, was not something he wished to see.
One could guess with toes that it must be related to the prospective Sunsâ son-in-law!
But how did he find out so fast?
Typically, Floating City doesnât spend much effort placing many spies in the Inner City and Outer City, except in some critical positions.
