Chapter 447
447 Barging In
“Zhan Wushuang…”
Gu Xi narrowed his eyes as she stared at the three words on the letter.
Zhan Wushuang was the current master of the Zhan Clan. It was said that his cultivation had entered the Great Saint stage many years ago, and he had made his name with the Zhan Clan’s peerless Valiant Heavenly Divine Fist. As for what his true cultivation level was, no one knew.
All in all, Zhan Wushuang was very strong and was ranked even in the Eastern Continent.
As for the purpose of this guy looking for her, Gu Xi had already guessed it in a short while.
Something that could alert the Zhan Clan’s head was definitely a big matter. He thought that the reason why he was able to receive such a heavy invitation was definitely related to that Valiant Heavenly Divine Palm.
“Great Saint, I haven’t fought with him yet.” Gu Xi smiled as he turned the letter into dust.
The next moment, a thought was transmitted from his mind. After a few breaths, Little Nine’s figure appeared in front of him.
“Let’s go and meet those fellows from the Zhan Clan,” Gu Xi said indifferently and immediately took the lead to walk away. Little Nine did not ask anything and just followed behind him without saying a word.
After leaving the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, Gu Xi asked around and found out where the Zhan Clan was staying in Lanjiang city. Without any hesitation, he set off straight for her destination.
Soon, the two of them arrived in front of a large mansion.
The residence was very large. It could not be considered luxurious, but it was definitely not simple either. This was a temporary residence given to the Zhan Clan by the officials of the competition. Of course, every first-rate power would receive this kind of treatment. As for the other sects, they could only think of a way on their own.
“Who’s there?!” At the gate, the guard questioned Gu Xi and the other man coldly.
“Gu Lan from the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion. Zhan Wushuang asked me to come.” Gu Xi spoke indifferently and revealed Zhan Wushuang’s name.
Hearing this, the guard was stunned for a moment before he could not help but sneer. “Gu Lan? You? You actually dare to call my Clan Master by his name, leave quickly!”
Obviously, the guard did not believe Gu Xi’s self-introduction.
He could not be blamed for this. Although Gu Lan’s name was known by everyone in the entire Lanjiang city, only a very small portion of the people in the city had actually seen Gu Lan’s appearance.
He couldn’t just believe anyone on the street who called themselves Gu Lan, right?
“Whether it’s true or not, won’t you know once you go in and report it?”
Gu Xi’s expression was still calm, but her tone was already a little impatient.
He was here to see Zhan Wushuang and did not have the time to talk nonsense with a guard.
“Where do you think you’re going? I’ve seen many people like you. Do you believe that if I were to shout out Gu Lan’s name on the streets right now, there would be at least a dozen Gu Lan’s jumping out?”
The guard glanced at Gu Xi in disdain and waved his hand impatiently.
Upon hearing this, Gu Xi could not help but be a little stunned.
He knew that he had become famous in Lanjiang city, but he did not expect so many people to pretend to be him at this time.
In the few days that Gu Xi became famous, the number of people named Gu Lan in the entire Lanjiang city suddenly increased by several times. Many people used Gu Lan’s name to swindle people everywhere, trying to make a fortune while the flow of people in Lanjiang city was large.
“Since you’re not willing to report, then I’ll have to go personally.”
After he came back to her senses, Gu Xi did not want to continue talking here. He lifted her feet and strode into the mansion, not paying any attention to the guards.
“How dare you!”
Seeing this, the guard shouted loudly, his face instantly sinking.
One had to know that this was the Zhan Clan’s residence. There were very few people in the entire Eastern Continent who had the guts to barge in. This made the guard start to suspect the true identity of this thin-looking man.
However, the words had already been spoken. If he went in to report now, it would undoubtedly be a slap to his own face. After some hesitation, he could only believe that Gu Xi was lying about her identity.
“Retreat quickly. Otherwise, I’ll kill you without mercy!” The guard roared again and pulled out the shining broadsword from his waist.
Gu Xi and Little Nine ignored him and continued to do what they wanted without any intention of stopping.
Seeing that the two of them were about to break into the mansion, the guard did not have time to think too much. He raised his sword and slashed it at Gu Xi’s face, trying to stop him.
Just as the cold blade was about to hit Gu Xi, an invisible impact suddenly spread out from Gu Xi’s body, instantly sending the guard flying back a dozen feet, and smashing a big hole in the gate of the mansion with his body.
“You …”
The immense pain that came from all over his body made the guard unable to speak, and the large blade in his hand had long been sent flying to who knows where. He could only watch the two of them step through the door.
At the same time, the huge movement also attracted the attention of the people in the mansion. Two streams of light rushed towards the gate at an extremely fast speed and appeared in front of Gu Xi in the blink of an eye.
“Who are you?!”
One of them shouted, and the pressure of the Saint-to-be stage poured out without reservation, oppressing Gu Xi and Little Nine.
“Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, Gu Lan,” Gu Xi said lightly, not affected by the pressure at all.
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the two men could not help but change a little. The other man looked at the unguarded appearance at the gate and his gaze fell on the guard.
The guard did not know where he got the strength from, but he rolled and crawled all the way to the two men. He hugged one of the men’s legs and complained with a sad face, “It’s this guy. He pretended to be Gu Lan from the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion. He even said that the Clan Master asked him to come here. I chased him away but he didn’t leave. He attacked me without saying a word and even barged into our residence.”
Hearing that, the two of them could not help but frown. Gu Xi was really the first person in the entire East Continent who dared to look down on their Zhan Clan.
“I don’t mind letting you guys end up like him.”
Gu Xi did not intend to continue explaining his identity and was ready to take action.
The two men in front of him were not even in the Saint stage. In his eyes, they were no different from ants.
Upon hearing this, the two of them looked at each other and obviously noticed that Gu Xi was not ordinary. One of them laughed at Gu Xi and said, “Sir, don’t be so anxious. Wait for this one to go in and report.”
Gu Xi nodded slightly and did not say anything more.
That person did not dare to delay any longer. With a tap of his toes, his figure disappeared from the spot. As for the remaining person, he stared at Gu Xi with a vigilant look, afraid that the latter would attack again.
