Chapter 867: Chapter 771: Catastrophe Level? _2
He was also one of the earliest to possess the strength of a Senior Partner.
However, more than two years have passed, and he is still hovering at the level of Senior Partner.
Upon hearing the news of Tao Yu’s return, he felt quite conflicted.
The current strength of Tao Yu might just be the very goal he has been pursuing all his life!
Although he had been defeated by Tao Yu in the past, the rate of Tao Yu’s growth still shocked him.
Hearing the na again made him feel sowhat bewildered.
...
“Right, since he was your contemporary and you’ve had so interactions, follow later when he visits to ease the atmosphere.”
An old-fashioned middle-aged man with a ticulous deanor said solemnly.
He was the current Chief Executive Officer of the Inner City!
He was also Gant’s father and the Family Head of the Gan Family.
Though not the strongest in the Gan Family, he was a prominent figure, a skilled World Breaker.
“Ease the atmosphere? Could it be that the Eight-Ard Vajra will co too?”
“According to recent feedback, he will co. Although he hasn’t joined the Chaoyang Society, they have always maintained a fairly good relationship, perhaps this ti he cos in support of the Chaoyang Society.”
Gan Hao said with a steady tone.
“Coming in support of the Chaoyang Society? Is it worth it?”
Gant was also sowhat surprised; after all, the Gan Family had never unduly interfered in the rivalry between the Chaoyang Society and the Inner City, though sotis taking sides, they generally followed the rules.
But Gant also understood, with an organization like the Chaoyang Society, if they cannot be turned into one of our own, conflicts will inevitably escalate, and the family’s stance against the Chaoyang Society is becoming increasingly evident.
Yuan Force needs to accumulate continuously, little by little. Each Pioneer taking a part ans lesser overall gains, so it’s necessary to push to the limits to maximize benefits.
The cost must be reduced to the lowest!
This is a fundantal position issue; unless they change, the discord cannot be reconciled!
“It’s impossible for us to be the ones changing…”
Gant’s thoughts were also complex at that mont…
—
Gan Hao looked at his son and his expression remained calm.
“Since that last defeat to him, your motivation vanished. If this continues, even if he halts now, you won’t catch up to him.”
When Gant first arrived in the New Developnt Zone, he was full of spirit and stepped into the level of a Senior Partner early.
But after getting severely injured by the then-rising Eight-Ard Vajra, he never quite recovered.
Despite having talent and resources, without that motivation, his future achievents would be limited…
“My son does want to catch up, but he grows too quickly, and now he has even caught the attention of the Suns, possibly even marrying into their family. Nowadays, he even warrants a respectful treatnt from father, I…”
Gant sighed; the gap was indeed too large.
“He is indeed a genius, with exceptional talent. However, it’s a pity he got on the wrong track; his future is uncertain.”
Gan Hao patted Gant’s head as he spoke.
These words stirred sothing in Gant, who then inquired as if seeking advice,
“Is it about those above?… This has happened before, those two families are still okay, right? Wasn’t it the Assassin’s League last ti when Huang Family had troubles?”
“That’s true, but his personal Talent is too high. If it were Suns’ own people being protected, it wouldn’t matter much, but he’s an Outsider, and his end probably won’t be peaceful.”
Gan Hao sighed, seemingly with a tinge of regret.
“However, this matter is unrelated to us. Our Gan Family has managed to maintain our current position by staying as neutral as possible, and even the twelve families need forces like ours to govern the Inner City. As long as we show any obvious bias, even toward the Xing Family, the outco will not be favorable. You must rember this.”
Gan Hao spoke sowhat sternly. Although the Gan Family was the foremost family in the Inner City, in Floating City, it was nothing, not to ntion compared to the top twelve Starshine families—so secondary families with one or two Catastrophe Level mbers could easily create ‘accidents’.
Only by staying absolutely neutral, could they maintain their current status.
Occasionally, they could offer minor support to one side, but absolutely not overstep!
It’s crucial to understand the balance!
“Don’t believe those nonsense from your second uncle; he’s already dood.”
“I understand that it is because of our fundantal stance that we were able to enter the New Developnt Zone so quickly.”
Gant nodded hurriedly.
“Alright, as long as you understand, let’s go…”
However, just as Gan Hao was preparing to leave with Gant, a voice ca from above, yet the sound did not spread outward, it was directed only towards their ears,
“Did I hear that the Chaoyang Society isn’t following the rules?”
Upon hearing this voice, Gan Hao’s expression suddenly changed.
“Mr. Carter…”
Gan Hao quickly walked out of the room and into the courtyard, where he saw a middle-aged man who had appeared there.
The voice had fallen from the sky, but now the person was already in the courtyard.
Carter Gundy!
A mber of the Gundy Family, ranked seventh among the Starshine twelve, and also the discoverer of the Gang Qi pathway.
As an old fox, Gan Hao felt uneasy seeing Carter coming in person.
Being able to lead the first family of the Inner City, the Gan Family could stir enough face to invite external support from a Catastrophe Level bigwig.
But this current mont, the visitor himself, was not sothing he wished to see.
One could guess with toes that it must be related to the prospective Suns’ son-in-law!
But how did he find out so fast?
Typically, Floating City doesn’t spend much effort placing many spies in the Inner City and Outer City, except in so critical positions.
