Chapter 95

Tilting his head slightly, Zhuowen immediately saw a smiling young man standing behind him. When he saw Zhuowen looking over, the smile on the young man's face grew even wider."Brother Zhuowen, I believe you are here to see the City Lord!" The young man said with a graceful smile.Zhuo Wen's gaze narrowed slightly as he stared at the smiling young man. He said indifferently, "I never thought that I would run into young master Gu Shang at the entrance. May I ask why young master Gu Shang has come to the entrance instead of staying in the estate so early in the morning?"Looking at the smiling Gu Shang in front of him, Zhuowen secretly raised a trace of vigilance in his heart. During the battle in the market yesterday, he clearly saw the hatred in Gu Shang's eyes. Furthermore, he did not hesitate to let his father, Gu Lie, tamper with the market battle. If it were not for the City Lord, Gu Yue Tian's intervention, it was likely that things would not have ended well.Now that Gu Shang had appeared in front of him with a smile on his face, Zhuowen felt that something was amiss."Actually, I was specially sent by the City Lord to receive you. I also know that you do not trust me, but the conflict between the two of us is only a small one!Later on, I was also taught a lesson by the City Lord and my father. Therefore, in order to make up for my wrongdoings, the City Lord sent me out to personally receive you today. ""Speaking of which, I am also trying to make up for my wrongdoings. This time, I am also trying to make up for my wrongdoings. Take this as an apology gift!" Gu Shang had a smile on his face as he took out a brocade box and handed it to Zhuowen."A Grade Four Elixir?"Opening the brocade box slightly, Zhuowen immediately felt the rich medicinal power inside. This medicinal power was not inferior to the Human Faced Nascent Ginseng.Looking deeply at Gu Shang, Zhuowen did not stand on ceremony and kept it into his Qiankun bag. He said with a smile, "Since young master Gu Shang has already done so much, I will naturally not force you. Naturally, the matter between us will be written off.""Brother Zhuowen is indeed a straightforward person. I like your character. Now, let's enter the mansion first. Don't let the City Lord wait for too long!"Gu Shang heaved a sigh of relief. Soon after, he happily patted Zhuowen's shoulder and brought Zhuowen into the mansion.However, the moment Gu Shang turned around, a chilling light shot out from his eyes. The chilling light only lasted for a moment before a warm smile appeared on Gu Shang's face.Not long after the two of them entered the City Lord's Mansion, a delicate and beautiful figure appeared from within the mansion. The beautiful figure wore a light yellow dress, and her waterfall-like black hair was tied into a cloud bun behind her head. An elegant and graceful temperament was emitted from the woman's body, and the most praiseworthy feature was her pair of flawless, well-proportioned, and perfectly round legs.This woman was the daughter of the City Lord, Gu Yue. Gu Yue stood at the entrance and looked around in confusion. The confusion on her face became even more pronounced."Miss Gu Yue!" The guards at the entrance respectfully bowed to Gu Yue."Did you see a fifteen year old youth come to the City Lord's Mansion just now?" Gu Yue frowned and asked the guards at the entrance.She had clearly made an appointment with Zhuowen to come to the City Lord's Mansion today. Now that the time had passed, she didn't expect that Zhuowen still hadn't come. This made her a little unhappy."Is the youth that Miss Gu Yue is looking for called Zhuowen?" One of the guards said with a fawning smile."Yes!It's Zhuowen. Could it be that he came? "Gu Yue nodded and said expectantly."That Zhuowen did come, but he was taken away by Young Master Gu Shang. It seems that he was brought to see the City Lord …"Before the guard could finish speaking, Gu Yue's expression changed greatly. Her figure flashed and flew into the mansion."Father only appointed me to receive Zhuowen. He didn't mention Gu Shang at all.Gu Shang's guts are too big. If anything happens to Zhuo Wen, he can just wait for Father's anger! "If it was said that Gu Yue Tian only admired Zhuowen in the beginning, then after she told Gu Yue Tian that Zhuowen had the Triple Armor Soul yesterday, Gu Yue Tian began to pay attention to Zhuowen.After all, Zhuo Wen had the Triplet Armor Soul and an extremely strong Mind Power talent. Such a genius would definitely become a terrifying master when he grew up. Furthermore, Zhuo Wen belonged to Rattan Armor City. If they could build a good relationship with Zhuo Wen now, the city lord's residence would benefit greatly when the latter became a peerless master in the future.As she thought, Gu Yue's feet moved faster and faster. Very soon, she arrived in front of an ancient-looking pavilion.She pushed open the door, and a tranquil smell of incense slowly wafted out. There were two figures in the room. One of them was a purple-clothed man sitting in front of a sandalwood table. It was the City Lord of Rattan Armor City, Gu Yue Tian. The other figure stood in front of Gu Yue Tian. It was actually Gu Shang's father, Gu Lie.The two of them seemed to be talking about something. Due to Gu Yue's violent opening of the door, the two of them simultaneously turned to look at the door and frowned slightly.When he discovered that the intruder was Gu Yue, Gu Yue Tian's frown eased. A warm smile appeared on his face again as he said, "Yue 'er!Didn't you go to receive Zhuowen?Why have you returned so quickly? Where's Zhuowen now? "Gu Yue's pretty face was a little gloomy. After coldly staring at the calm Gu Lie, she said in a deep voice, "Father, Gu Shang falsely passed on your orders and took Zhuowen away. As for where he was taken, I don't know either.""Oh?Gu Shang took Zhuowen away? "The smile on Gu Yue Tian's face gradually disappeared, and a trace of cold light spread out from his eyes.He tilted his head and looked at the calm Gu Lie. He coldly said, "Second brother, you were the one who leaked the news of Zhuowen's arrival to Gu Shang, right?Speak, where did you take Zhuowen? "Gu Lie's expression was still calm. Although he was a little confused by Gu Yue Tian's questioning, in his opinion, Zhuowen was only a child of the small Zhuo Family. There was no need to pay attention to him."Big brother!I know that you allowed Zhuowen to come today because you wanted to give him a spot to fight for the Yuan Qi Tower. However, he is not a member of the City Lord's Mansion. Giving it to an outsider like this is not appropriate.Therefore, I acted on my own initiative and let Shang 'er take Zhuowen to the Hall of Penal Law. That is where that bastard should go. "Gu Lie's tone was very calm."Gu Lie, you have gone too far. The conflict between Zhuowen and Gu Shang is insignificant, but you want to kill him. Do you know that by doing this, you will bring unimaginable enemies to the City Lord's Mansion in the future?" Gu Yue finally couldn't help but shout. Her shoulders trembled in anger.Gu Lie was startled, and his face immediately became gloomy. As a junior, Gu Yue dared to question him like this. This made him lose face. He coldly snorted and said, "What kind of threat can that bastard pose to the City Lord's Mansion?Also, big brother, you should teach Gu Yue a lesson. Offending a superior like this is too impolite. ""You don't know Zhuowen at all. It was not by chance that he could win the Resurrection Battle and even kill a Yang Reality Realm warrior with the strength of the Yin Void Realm. If you insist on going against Zhuowen, you will really regret it."At this moment, anger had already filled Gu Yue's mind. She didn't know why she was so angry, but when she heard that Zhuowen had entered the Hall of Penal Law, her heart was filled with anger for no reason.The Hall of Penal Law was considered the most mysterious place in the City Lord's Mansion. There were extremely vicious criminals locked inside. These criminals were simply ferocious beasts that killed without blinking an eye. Once someone entered the Hall of Penal Law, it was basically impossible for them to come out alive."This time, Zhuowen will definitely die in the Hall of Penal Law. A dead person will definitely not pose any threat to the City Lord's Mansion. Now that what's done can't be undone, big brother, I think you should carefully consider the empty slot in the Vitality Tower!" Gu Lie ignored Gu Yue and looked at Gu Yue Tian, who had been silent all this time.However, when Gu Lie saw the frighteningly calm expression on Gu Yue Tian's face, his heart suddenly thumped. He knew very well that once Gu Yue Tian showed such an expression, it meant that the usually gentle Gu Yue Tian was truly angry."Could it be that he is angry because of Zhuowen?That's not possible! "Gu Lie couldn't help but mutter in his heart."Gu Lie, aren't you looking down on your big brother too much?Let me tell you clearly today that if anything happens to Zhuowen, your son Gu Shang won't be able to live either. "A calm yet cold voice rang out from Gu Yue Tian's mouth, immediately causing Gu Lie's mind to go blank. He angrily said, "Big brother, are you confused?Zhuowen is only an outsider. Gu Shang is my own son, your own nephew. Are you going to kill your own nephew for an outsider? ""Shut up!You don't understand Zhuowen's situation at all. Let me tell you right now, Zhuowen is a natural Triple Armor Soul. His talent is even more outstanding than his father, Zhuowen!Do you still remember Zhuo Xiaotian from back then? He reached the Ultimate King Realm at the age of twenty-five. Later on, Emperor Qing personally made him a Marquis. If he hadn't disappeared right after becoming a Marquis, our Rattan Armor City would have the qualifications to become an Intermediate City long ago, or even an Advanced City. ""And now, a genius even more outstanding than Zhuo Xiaotian has appeared in our Rattan Armor City. This is another chance for our Rattan Armor City to improve, but you want to cut off this hope.The reason is actually just a small conflict. Gu Lie, oh Gu Lie, when did you become so muddle-headed? "Gu Yue Tian's expression was still very calm, but the coldness in his words was even more pronounced."Triple Armor Soul?That bastard actually has a Triple Armor Soul?But even if he has a Triple Armor Soul, he might not be able to reach Zhuo Xiaotian's level!After all, success in the martial way doesn't just rely on armor souls … "Gu Lie's voice trembled slightly. Looking at the coldness in Gu Yue Tian's eyes, he couldn't help but feel the hairs on his back stand on end."Even if his martial achievements can't reach Zhuo Xiaotian's level, do you know why Grandmaster Kuraki took him in as a disciple?Do you think his Spiritual Energy is only passable? ""You're wrong again. The result of his Spiritual Energy test is high-grade. This is second only to exceptional talent!As for what high-grade Spiritual Energy means, I don't need to tell you. This kid's Spiritual Energy cultivation will at least reach the level of a grade-9 Arcana Master in the future. If he makes a small breakthrough, he might even reach grade-0. ""A grade-0 Arcana Master! That's an existence on par with the marquises of an empire. When the time comes, this kid only needs to casually give a suggestion, and our Rattan Armor City will be able to expand our territory and increase our rank. Endless benefits will fall upon us!However, if this kid dies, our Rattan Armor City will have no chance to increase its rank. Grandmaster Kuraki will even have to leave Rattan Armor City. When that happens, the other cities that are eyeing us covetously will very likely attack us. Do you know how serious the consequences will be? "When Gu Lie heard this, his face immediately became incomparably pale. He didn't think that Zhuowen's martial talent and Spiritual Energy talent would be so shocking. At this moment, regret gradually rose in his eyes."Hmph!I'll go take a look at the Hall of Penal Law first. If Zhuowen really does unfortunately die, your son Gu Shang won't be able to live either. I'll do as I say. "

Tilting his head slightly, Zhuowen immediately saw a smiling young man standing behind him. When he saw Zhuowen looking over, the smile on the young man's face grew even wider.

"Triple Armor Soul?

That bastard actually has a Triple Armor Soul?

But even if he has a Triple Armor Soul, he might not be able to reach Zhuo Xiaotian's level!

After all, success in the martial way doesn't just rely on armor souls … "

Gu Lie's voice trembled slightly. Looking at the coldness in Gu Yue Tian's eyes, he couldn't help but feel the hairs on his back stand on end.
