Chapter 68
"Don't worry. Leave it to me. Go back and tell the others that I will be on time tomorrow. "
Gu Chen said casually.
"Does Senior Chen have a way to deal with the four masters?"
Huang Fei heaved a sigh of relief. Gu Chen's calmness had given her confidence.
Gu Chen nodded but did not elaborate. Huang Fei left with his promise.
Not long after returning to the meeting hall, First Uncle and Second Uncle returned. Both of them looked gloomy.
"How's grandpa?" Huang Fei asked immediately.
"We waited outside for a long time. Your grandpa did not respond. I'm afraid he won't be able to come out tomorrow."
Both of them smiled bitterly and asked with concern. "What did Master Chen say?"
"Senior Chen said that he will be on time tomorrow."
Huang Fei's answer eased the frown on their faces. First Uncle asked cautiously.
"He only said that he will fight? Did he say how he is going to deal with the four masters? "
Huang Fei shook her head. The group of people became anxious again.
There was no specific plan. Chen Gu was just one person and they were worried about him!
"Did he agree very readily? Is he just trying to brush you off? We can only count on him now. He better not run away. "
Second Uncle said worriedly.
Gu Chen had asked them to tolerate the Lan Family, but now he was willing to fight. It was hard to believe.
"Second Uncle, how could you say that? Senior Chen is not that kind of person!"
Huang Fei's face turned cold.
Although she was disappointed in Gu Chen because of what happened before, she still had great trust in him.
Especially at such a critical juncture of life and death, how could they allow such rumors to shake the morale of the army?
"We have seen Senior Chen's strength. Now that things have come to this, we have no choice but to trust him. If we don't unite now, the Huang Family will be finished. "
At this moment, she displayed her authority as the Clan Head. Everyone nodded and didn't say anything else.
That night, everyone in the Huang Family could not sleep. They were worried about the unknown fate the next day.
Finally, the morning came.
"Neigh …"
War horses neighed and galloped in the air. Just as dawn broke, a large group of people from the City of Greed headed straight for the Huang family!
The Lan Family made their move. Yesterday, they had sent out a letter of challenge. Today, they were going to chase the Huang Family out of the Greedy Wolf City.
With the Huang Mansion as the center, the nearby residents had all evacuated, afraid that they would be dragged into the fierce battle between the two forces.
Everyone knew that after today, there would only be one major force in the Greedy Wolf City, and that force was none other than the Lan Family!
At the entrance of the Huang Mansion, the head of the Lan Clan dismounted from his horse. With a face full of smiles, he accompanied the Zheng siblings, Spiritual Master Liu, and Monk Silver into the Huang Mansion.
The guards of the Huang Residence looked as if they were facing a great enemy. Their expressions were tense as if they were treading on thin ice under the pressure of the cultivators.
"Lan Family Head, the sun has just risen. I didn't expect you to come."
The eldest uncle of the Huang family immediately came out to welcome them, his face filled with anger.
"Isn't it because I want to settle everything as soon as possible so that your Huang family has enough time to pack?"
The head of the Lan Family mocked. His words infuriated the eldest uncle of the Huang Family, but he didn't dare to act rashly in front of the four cultivators.
After a while, Concubine Huang and the others arrived. Seeing the arrogant Lan Family members, their expressions did not look good.
"Everyone, please come in. Servants, serve tea! "
Concubine Huang showed great self-restraint and invited them to sit in the hall.
"No need to be so polite, little girl. Elder Wu should be here soon. We will wait for him here and take a look at the Huang Mansion. Tsk, tsk, the scenery here is not bad. "
Concubine Huang was the head of the Huang Family for a long time, but the head of the Lan Family called her little girl, full of disrespect.
What's more, he looked around the Huang Mansion as if it had already become his.
The people of the Lan Family also behaved impudently. The Huang Family looked at the four cultivators, but they didn't dare to say anything.
"Quickly, go and invite Senior Chen."
Concubine Huang said to one of her cousins. The cousin nodded and left in a hurry.
Not long after, the sky brightened and the people of the Smoke Cloud Sect arrived.
Their leader was Elder Wu. As soon as he arrived, the head of the Lan Family laughed heartily.
"Elder Wu, you are finally here."
The head of the Lan Family and Elder Wu were very familiar with each other. Elder Wu smiled at the head of the Lan Family.
Concubine Huang went up to greet him, but Elder Wu purposely gave her the cold shoulder. His attitude was completely different from before.
Seeing this, the Huang Family's hearts sank. It seemed that the Smoke Cloud Sect was really planning to help the Lan Family rule the Tan Lang City.
"Since everyone is here, let's begin today's deathmatch. Where is the head of the Huang Family?"
Elder Wu personally presided over the match.
The people of the Huang Family fell silent. Since yesterday, they had sent people to guard the place where the head of the Huang Family was cultivating in seclusion, waiting for him to come out.
However, the old man did not respond at all. There was no way he would come out today.
Seeing the solemn expression on the faces of the Huang Family, the head of the Lan Family understood what was going on.
"It seems that the head of the Huang Family is too old to fight anymore."
He heaved a sigh of relief. The biggest variable today was Huang Pingzhang. The name he made when he was young still lingered in the Tan Lang City.
Now that the Huang Family was at the brink of life and death, if he still did not show himself, it could only mean that he was really not strong enough. It was even possible that he had died of old age a long time ago.
"It seems like we can skip today's competition. The Huang Family will leave the Greedy Wolf City today."
The handsome Zheng Fenghe said calmly.
"It's too early to say that. Master Chen is already on his way."
Concubine Huang retorted, trying to cheer up the morale of the Huang Family.
"Chen Gu? There are four of us here today. Does the Huang Family plan to send him alone to challenge us? "
Zheng Li sneered. "Forget about the four of us. Even if he only fights me, the chance of Chen Gu winning is very low."
"If the Huang Family is relying on him, then surrender as soon as possible. Don't waste each other's time."
Her words were full of disdain. The Huang Family was furious but powerless to refute.
Although Gu Chen said he would fight, the majority of the Huang Family were not optimistic about him at all.
There were four cultivators. Chen Gu was so young. No matter how strong he was, how could he win?
Moreover, the fact that he asked the Huang Family to endure showed that he was not confident enough to face the Lan Family's master head on.
"We haven't even fought yet. How can you be so sure? Aren't the two of you defeated by Senior Chen? What's there to be arrogant about? "
Concubine Huang was furious. She pointed at the silent Enlightened Master Liu and Yin Dhuta.
When the two of them heard this, they couldn't hold it in anymore.
They were defeated by Chen Gu last time, causing them to lose their position as masters of the Huang Family. One of them was covered in dust and the other was seriously injured. They became the laughingstock of many.
This time, they came for the generous rewards from the Lan Family and to avenge their humiliation.
Today, with the Zheng siblings' help, they did not put Chen Gu in their eyes.
