Chapter 72

One arrow through the heart!

Blood dyed the sky red. Zheng Li's body fell to the ground and her eyes dimmed.

Dead!

"Such impressive archery skills."

Gu Chen's eyes darted to the direction the arrow came from. On the roof of a building, an elder in grey put down his bow.

"Huang Pingzhang?"

Elder Wu's expression changed. That arrow just now was powerful and didn't seem weak at all.

Compared to before, Huang Pingzhang's strength hadn't declined at all!

"Dammit, we've fallen into the Huang Clan's trap."

He thought. Huang Pingzhang still had the strength to fight, but he didn't show up and only attacked when Zheng Li was about to escape. He was probably confident about the outcome of the battle.

The Lan Clan thought they were going to kill the Huang Clan today, but it seemed like it was the opposite. The Huang Clan had planned this long ago to lure them into a trap!

"Looks like the Huang Clan has long had the ambition to rule the City of Greedy Wolf. Dammit, why didn't they inform the House of the Smoke Cloud first?"

Elder Wu felt like he had suffered a loss, but he didn't dare to get angry.

Didn't they see that the four cultivators accompanying them were all dead?

Huang Pingzhang was a cultivator of the advanced stage of the Divine Art, and Chen Gu wasn't much weaker. Their strength was enough to attract the attention of the House of the Smoke Cloud.

With this in mind, Elder Wu forced a smile on his face and declared his judgement.

"Congratulations to the Huang Clan for winning today's competition. According to the agreement, the Lan Clan must leave the City of Greedy Wolf today. Understood, Lord Lan?"

The head of the Lan Family sat on the ground, completely disheartened, muttering to himself. "My Lan Clan is finished, finished …"

Gu Chen ignored Elder Wu and stepped forward to loot the Storage Rings of the siblings of the Zheng family, Immortal Liu, and Monk Silver one by one.

At this moment, Huang Pingzhang flew down from the roof and a group of Huang Clan members rushed up to him.

The Huang Clan's survival changed from great sorrow to great joy. At this moment, everyone was in high spirits.

Some of the Huang Clan members had already taken the initiative to kidnap everyone from the Lan Clan. Others quickly ran out to report this news to the entire city.

"Ahem, since it's over, I'll leave first."

Elder Wu felt extremely awkward staying there, so he found an excuse to leave in a hurry.

Within a few days, the Huang Family would become the only power in the Greedy Wolf City. He had to report this matter to his superiors as soon as possible.

"Cultivator Chen, thank you for saving the Huang Family in a time of crisis."

Huang Pingzhang led the Huang Family towards Gu Chen, saluting Gu Chen in front of everyone.

At this moment, the patriarch was bowing respectfully to a young man. Everyone in the Huang Family, including First and Second Uncles who didn't think highly of Gu Chen, didn't dare to object.

There was deep awe in their eyes as they looked at Gu Chen.

There was even a tinge of panic in this reverence.

Gu Chen had just collected all the storage rings, and when he saw Huang Pingzhang bow to him, he calmly accepted them.

"Patriarch Huang is too courteous. I've heard a lot about you and I finally get to meet you."

He studied the old man in front of him. The old man's face was full of wrinkles, and his eyes were so small that they almost became a thin line. He gave off a kind feeling.

However, judging from that arrow just now, he was definitely a vicious and merciless person. Even the timing of his appearance was very thought-provoking.

Gu Chen remembered the night he killed Qian Fengbao and the words he said about Huang Pingzhang.

"The Old Man was in seclusion and couldn't come out for a while. If it wasn't for Fellow Cultivator Chen, I'm afraid the Huang Family would have been finished today. This is a great kindness. All of you, why don't you kowtow to Fellow Cultivator Chen and thank him? "

Huang Pingzhang turned around and said. The Huang Family members didn't dare to disobey him. They all knelt down and saluted Gu Chen.

Gu Chen raised an eyebrow. "Patriarch Huang, you're too kind. It's my duty to take someone's money to get rid of a disaster."

"That's not right. Didn't the Zheng siblings also take the Lan Family's money? What did they do in the end? "

Huang Pingzhang shook his head and sighed.

The Huang Family members were distressed. They didn't have a Transcendent cultivator, and they couldn't just rely on their worshippers. The worshippers would run away at the first sign of danger.

Thinking of this, they couldn't help but worry.

The Patriarch was old, and the Huang Family would soon lose their own Transcendent cultivator. Would they have to rely on this Chen Gu then?

Based on the strength he showed today, if he was willing to stay in the Huang Family, it would be a guarantee for the family. But he was still young, and it would be difficult to decide.

Moreover, with his strength, would he be willing to stay as a worshipper and not want to develop his own forces?

Thinking of Gu Chen's ruthlessness, some of the second-generation Huang Family members were deeply worried.

"It's a bit presumptuous to ask this question now, but the Old Man wants to know, does Fellow Cultivator Chen have a wife?"

After chatting with Gu Chen for a while, Huang Pingzhang suddenly threw out a question as if they regretted not meeting each other earlier.

When the Huang Family members heard this, their eyes lit up and they all looked at Huang Fei.

Sure enough, the older the ginger, the spicier. They were worried that Chen Gu would leave one day or have the ambition to establish his own force, but the Patriarch had already thought of a countermeasure.

If they could ally with him through marriage, this problem would naturally be solved!

In the entire Huang Family, the only one who could match up to this young cultivator was Huang Fei, the Patriarch.

Not only was she young and beautiful, but she also knew Chen Gu from a long time ago. Maybe there really was a chance!

Seeing everyone looking at her, Huang Fei understood her grandfather's meaning. She was both embarrassed and happy.

Really, Grandfather, why didn't you discuss it with me first? How embarrassing!

She wasn't the least bit unwilling, her big eyes looking at Gu Chen expectantly.

"I'm still young, and I don't have a wife." Gu Chen shook his head.

Hearing his answer, the Huang Family members were overjoyed. There was a chance!

"Haha, if that's the case, then that's great. Come, Xiao Fei. "

Huang Pingzhang turned around and called out to Huang Fei. Huang Fei lowered her head and walked over nervously.

She had met Gu Chen countless times, but at this moment, she was inexplicably nervous, like a bride meeting her husband for the first time.

"What does Fellow Daoist Chen think of my girl?" Huang Pingzhang asked with a smile.

Gu Chen immediately understood the Huang Family Patriarch's meaning. He frowned slightly and replied politely.

"Miss Huang is as beautiful as a flower, and has a good temperament. She is a very good girl."

"Oh? Since Fellow Daoist Chen doesn't have a wife, and you think Xiao Fei is not bad, would you be willing to marry into the Huang Family? "

Huang Pingzhang went straight to the point.

Hearing this, Huang Fei's ears and neck turned red. Her heart was as sweet as honey.

"For this kind of thing, Patriarch should ask Miss Huang first."

Gu Chen's head hurt. He had guessed correctly.

Huang Pingzhang looked at Huang Fei with a smile. "Xiao Fei, are you willing?"

Huang Fei lowered her head even more shyly, and her voice was as soft as a mosquito's. "As you wish, Grandfather."

The heart of a young girl was revealed in her words.

"Haha, looks like Xiao Fei has no objections. What does Fellow Daoist Chen think?"

Huang Pingzhang asked again with anticipation.
