C236 To the Chu Family
However, he still gritted his teeth. Back then, he had even suffered such pain. Now, this kind of pain was nothing to him.
The wound was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. Half an hour later, Xiao Chen withdrew his Jade Air. Gu Wangsheng was already numb to the pain. His back was drenched in cold sweat.
"Alright, President Gu. Your old injury has been completely healed. There won't be any more problems from now on." Xiao Chen said.
"Thank you, Mr Xiao!" After saying that, Gu Wangsheng immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Xiao Chen.
"President Gu, why do you need to do this? I am just doing what a doctor should do. I cannot accept such a big gift from you." Xiao Chen quickly went up and helped him up.
"What Mr Xiao said is wrong. If this wound is not healed, I don't think I will live long. You are my savior now!" A grateful expression appeared on Gu Wangsheng's ordinary face.
"Since you were once grandfather's disciple, we don't need to talk about this anymore." Xiao Chen said with a faint smile.
"Alright. Mr Xiao, I don't know what your next plan is. The people of Chu family are watching you from outside." Gu Wangsheng said.
"What else can I do? I will take it one step at a time. The Chu family will never forgive me, but I am not afraid of them. If they really want to fight, I'm not sure if I will be the one to suffer. " Xiao Chen said, his eyes flashing with a trace of killing intent.
Indeed, if the Chu family really wanted to offend him... Then don't blame him for being impolite. With his current cultivation base... It was no longer the same as before. As long as there weren't any exceptionally powerful experts here... Xiao Chen was confident that he could defeat his opponent.
"Mr Xiao, I have a secret passage here that was originally reserved for myself. Why don't you avoid the wrath of the Chu family for now? After all, they have the advantage in numbers. I'm afraid that you will be at a disadvantage when the time comes. " A worried expression appeared on Gu Wangsheng's face.
"Don't worry. Although I don't have the profound cultivation base of my grandfather, president Gu, it's better for you to do your own thing. You don't have to offend the Chu family because of me. After all, I'm only here for the time being. You'll have to stay here for a long time. "
Xiao Chen waved his hand.
"Mr Xiao, you are saying this as an outsider. You and I are both from the same sect. No matter what the reason is, I will help you. Since you want to face the Chu family directly, I, Gu Wangsheng, naturally won't be a coward. I will go with you! " Gu Wangsheng said generously.
Although Xiao Chen admired Gu Wangsheng's loyalty and courage, Gu Wangsheng was just an ordinary person. He didn't cultivate much, even if he had received Xiao Qingyuan's guidance. It was impossible for him to escape from the siege of so many people.
Therefore, Xiao Chen shook his head and patted Gu Wangsheng's shoulder.
"President Gu, you should stay here. This trip is too dangerous. To be honest, you are not strong enough to face so many enemies. So, since I saved your life, I hope you can cherish it. I will definitely be fine, we have a long way to go."
Gu Wangsheng wanted to say something else when he heard this, but when he saw the confident smile on Xiao Chen's face, he nodded and said.
"Then I am really grateful to Mr Xiao. Then I, Gu, will make an oath here today. From now on, Mr Xiao's matter will be my business. No matter if it is going to be a mountain of knives or a pot of oil, I will do my duty!"
"Alright, I will remember this. If there is any need in the future, I will definitely come and find you!" Xiao Chen also laughed.
The two of them became good friends at first sight. After chatting for a while, Xiao Chen said goodbye to Gu Wangsheng.
When they went out, Yi Mengruo came to Xiao Chen's side worriedly and said, "Mr. Xiao, why didn't you run away from the secret passage arranged by President Gu? Chu family won't dare to touch us. You can go out alone. Wouldn't it be like a sheep entering the tiger's mouth?"
Xiao Chen didn't know why Yi Mengruo was worried about him. If it was only because she had taken a fancy to his money, she wouldn't behave like this. Xiao Chen smiled faintly and said.
" I appreciate Miss Mengruo's good intentions. However, I have something to do in Wuling, so I have never been afraid of a small Chu family. "
After saying that, he strode out of the Ten Fragrance Pavilion.
As soon as he stepped out of the Ten Fragrance Pavilion, a few muscular men dressed in black surrounded him.
"Mr. Xiao, please follow us to the Chu family!" The leader of the men in sunglasses said.
"Alright." Xiao Chen nodded and sat on a Rolls-Royce under the lead of a few big men. They left the auction hall.
Yi Mengruo looked at Xiao Chen's back as he walked away. She had never felt anything in her heart for so many years. She seemed to have loosened up a little. She did not know why. She felt that she was familiar with Xiao Chen when she saw him.
"Mr. Xiao will be fine." Gu Wangsheng suddenly appeared beside her and said.
"Are you so sure? Why? That's the Chu family. " Yi Mengruo asked in confusion.
"He is not an ordinary person. He is an unworldly expert!" After saying that, Gu Wangsheng turned around and returned to his room.
"An expert from the outside world." Yi Mengruo carefully chewed on these four words, then she also turned around and went back to her room.
Along the way, everyone beside Xiao Chen kept silent, while Xiao Chen kept absorbing the energy within the King Ming Jade. Every second, he could feel that his strength had increased a little.
Just as he was about to reach the Chu family, the King Ming Jade was almost completely absorbed. Xiao Chen felt that his body was unprecedentedly full of energy. Now, it could be said that he was in his strongest state ever since the disappearance of the War God Physique.
When he arrived outside the Chu family's courtyard, instead of calling it a courtyard, it was more like the palaces of the ancient high-ranking officials.
When the door opened, Xiao Chen saw more than ten buildings of different sizes inside. They were all in the style of Europe, and they looked very elegant.
The car quickly arrived in front of the building that looked like a castle in the middle.
Chu Yuv stood outside the castle and seemed to have been waiting for a long time.
A smile immediately appeared on his face when he saw Xiao Chen. His eyes were flashing with a vicious light. Obviously, he was dissatisfied with Xiao Chen.
But this was also very normal. Not only did Xiao Chen steal his limelight before Yi Mengruo, but he also bought the things he wanted to buy from the jade auction.
