Chapter 448
448 Zhan Wushuang
It did not take long for the person who had reported to them to return.
“So it’s Young Master Gu who has come to visit. The misunderstanding just now was our fault, I hope Young Master Gu will not take it to heart.”
The man chuckled and cupped his hands at Gu Xi.
Even though he was apologizing, there was not much regret in his words.
Obviously, he did not think much of Gu Xi.
After all, no matter how strong an individual was, they were insignificant in front of the first-rate forces. Moreover, Gu Xi was not backed by a powerful sect, but a Chamber of Commerce.
Although the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion was the world’s number one Chamber of Commerce, it was just a Chamber of Commerce in the end. Without a long heritage and strong strength, it was difficult for people to pay too much attention to it.
“I advise you to change the guard.”
Gu Xi did not care too much about that person’s attitude and just strode into the depths of the mansion. you snobbish fellow. “Don’t offend someone you can’t afford to offend one day. It’ll be too late for regrets then.”
Looking at Gu Xi’s gradually disappearing figure, the guard curled his lips in disdain.
“What’s there to be proud of? Isn’t it just that his talent is better?”
He struggled to stand up and cursed Gu Xi’s parents in his heart, “People we can’t afford to offend? How many people in this continent dare to offend the Zhan Clan?”
…
Under the guidance of the man, Gu Xi and the other man passed through the courtyard and soon arrived outside a Hall.
In front of the door, Gu Xi stopped. He did not choose to open the door immediately, but quietly released his divine sense into it.
A moment later, the invisible spiritual sense was withdrawn, and his expression was somewhat grave.
Under his senses, there were no less than a dozen auras in the hall. Each of these people was at least in the Saint stage. One of them had a mysterious aura that made him feel a sense of danger. It was most likely Zhan Wushuang.
“What, is Young Master Gu afraid?” the disciple of the Zhan Clan asked with a smile.
Gu Xi glanced at him indifferently and immediately slapped his face, sending him flying more than ten meters away. She then kicked the door open and said coldly, ” “If I was afraid, I wouldn’t have come today.”
These words were not only said for the Zhan Clan’s disciples to hear, but also for everyone in the hall to hear.
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Xi and the other man slowly walked into the hall.
“It seems that Little Friend Gu is not in a good mood.”
As soon as they entered the door, a long voice reached their ears.
Looking at the source of the voice, Gu Xi’s eyes locked on a middle-aged man in his fifties at the head of the table. The mysterious aura that he had sensed earlier was this man.
“It’s nothing, I just met a few noisy dogs on the way here.” Gu Xi chuckled and did not give Zhan Wushuang any face at all.
“How audacious! You actually dare to speak to the Clan Master in such a manner!” a person immediately stood up and shouted.
However, before Gu Xi could continue, Zhan Wushuang, who was sitting at the head of the table, raised his hand to stop that person from speaking. He smiled and said, “It’s fine. Little Friend Gu has such amazing talent and strength. It’s normal for him to be frivolous at his age.”
After saying that, Zhan Wushuang’s line of sight involuntarily fell on Little Nine.
With just one glance, he frowned without a trace.
Even though Little Nine was a girl, Zhan Wushuang could still sense a dangerous aura from her.
“This is?” Zhan Wushuang laughed without changing his expression.
“May I know why the Zhan Clan head is looking for me?” Gu Xi did not pay attention to Zhan Wushuang’s question and asked him.
Seeing this, the faces of the people in the hall were once again filled with anger. However, because of Zhan Wushuang’s words, no one stood up to criticize Gu Xi.
“It’s said that since ancient times, heroes come from the young. I heard from the sect that Zhan Hong was defeated by a young disciple from the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion. I’m also quite curious, so I naturally came to see.”
Zhan Wushuang laughed and his words were all praising Gu Xi’s performance on the field.
Gu Xi was very indifferent to Zhan Wushuang’s praise. He nodded and said, “It is indeed my honor to be recognized by the Zhan Clan’s head. But based on my guess, I’m afraid that the Zhan Clan’s head doesn’t just want to see me, right?”
As soon as these words came out, the hall fell into silence for a while.
Zhan Wushuang was obviously stunned as he did not expect Gu Xi to get straight to the point. This caught him off guard, but he quickly regained his senses. “Since Little Friend Gu is so direct, it wouldn’t be right for me to dawdle.”
“I wonder where Little Friend Gu’s Valiant Heavenly Divine Palm, the spirit skill you used in the competition, came from?”
Zhan Wushuang stared straight at Gu Xi, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared.
This was the reason why he had rushed to Lanjiang city as soon as possible!
The Valiant Heavenly Divine Palm was not only one word different from his Zhan Clan’s Valiant Heavenly Divine Fist, but their auras were almost the same when they were used. Their might was even better.
This made him wonder if the Valiant Heavenly Divine Fist had been leaked out. After all, the Divine Fist was the Zhan Clan’s famous ultimate technique, and also the symbol of the Zhan Clan!
If this spirit skill were to be leaked out, it would undoubtedly be a huge loss to the Zhan Clan!
In the hall, everyone was closely watching Gu Xi’s every move, waiting for his answer. Some people had even secretly circulated their spiritual power. As long as Gu Xi made any strange movements, they would immediately suppress him with thunderous means.
On the other hand, Gu Xi did not show any signs of nervousness under the gazes of so many Zhan Clan experts. Instead, he appeared very relaxed and calm.
“I’m sorry, but I’m afraid I don’t need to tell you.” Gu Xi chuckled.
Upon hearing this, everyone present was stunned.
Faced with a personal question from their Zhan Clan Master, this fellow actually did not answer?
He was simply not putting the Zhan Clan in his eyes!
“Kid, I advise you to tell us the truth. It’s for everyone’s good,” one of them sneered, his words full of threat.
It was as if they would not hesitate to attack Gu Xi if he continued to be stubborn.
“What’s wrong? What can you do to me?” Gu Xi smiled disdainfully at the man’s threat.
Hearing this, that person wanted to continue but was stopped by Zhan Wushuang.
“My Young Friend Gu, I’m sure you know how important this fist is to the Zhan Clan. As long as you’re willing to hand over the Valiant Heavenly Divine Palm, the Zhan Clan will naturally give you a satisfactory reward. How about it?”
Zhan Wushuang said in a deep voice. Although it seemed like he was discussing with Gu Xi, he had already made up his mind the moment Gu Xi entered the door. He had to get the Divine Palm from Gu Xi!
