"Thirteen, you should quickly return to Jinling. It's not easy for us to et this ti. Who knows when we'll see each other again. I hope I'll still be alive when I return from the Eternal Life Hall. Then, we'll definitely drink heartily together!" Huang Fuqi said with a smile.
Feng Guoguo nodded, a resolute expression on his face.
He knew that ever since becoming one of the Thirteen Grand Protectors, his life was no longer his own, but belonged to the country.
Where there's danger, that's where he dives in.
In places unseen by others, he gives his all to eradicate those shady things, to prevent harm to the world.
Given the current circumstances, until the Eternal Life Hall is eradicated, he has to stay in Jinling, ready to react to any signs of trouble.
This ti coming to Tianzhou was rely to et with his two senior brothers and strengthen their bond.
Hastily coming, and hastily leaving.
With the Su Family matter settled, the Su Family seed to have reached a delicate calm on the surface.
However, a day later, shocking news ca from the Su Family.
The head of the Su Family, Sunan King Su Mu, passed away due to ineffective treatnt.
The new Family Head position was handed to Su Mu's eldest son, Su Cheng.
Nonetheless, the anticipated chaos in the southwestern region did not occur. Other families that had been eyeing the Su Family, led by the Wu Family, stepped forward to offer condolences, publicly announcing their strong support in helping Su Cheng maintain the original order of the southwest, even honoring Su Cheng as the new Sunan King.
Simultaneously, the Su Family announced a collaboration with Shennong Sect to create a traditional Chinese dicine brand and expand Shennong Sect's influence in the southwest.
Additionally, even the Feng Family from the Capital City sent representatives to the Su Family to express their cooperative relationship and support Su Cheng as the Sunan King.
Moreover, the entertainnt circle saw a major event.
The original Huaxia Entertainnt Group was directly acquired by the Kyoto Feng Family, rebranded as Fenghua Entertainnt Company, and concurrently brought in the star Chu Tiange.
According to Fenghua Entertainnt's promotion, their next move is to vigorously build up Chu Tiange, positioning her to beco the next top star in entertainnt.
Amidst all these changes, although Su Mu passed away, the Su Family grew stronger than ever before.
Most people are unaware of what transpired behind the scenes, but there are rumors circulating that the Su Family's smooth transition and rise after Su Mu's death were all because Su Jiu'er befriended a young man.
And that young man was unparalleled, known as Master Ye.
So even say that although Master Ye has not challenged the Huaxia National Rankings, he is highly likely the number one on that list.
The Rankings are the most authoritative martial arts ranking in Hua Country.
Currently, the number one on the Rankings is Military God Chu Tiannan.
However, following these rumors, many people scoffed.
"What Master Ye? Number one on the Rankings? You speak as if you could be struck by lightning for being so boastful."
"Right, those Rankings are elite. I've heard that Master Ye is only in his twenties, still immature. It might just be a publicity stunt."
"Not only that, Master Ye hasn't even challenged the Rankings; if he did, he might not even make the top ten."
"Hey, if he's really only in his twenties and can make the top one hundred, that would be enough to honor his ancestors."
Opinions varied.
Master Ye's reputation skyrocketed.
Once famous, naturally many comnts follow.
anwhile, Ye Guichen, at the center of this storm, had already left Tianzhou on the second day after Su Mu's death.
On his way, he had already t up with Luo Huasheng and Gongsun Fengying.
Initially, Su Wu was supposed to stealthily sneak into Great Cold Mountain, but due to severe injuries, he had to stay ho to recover.
As for Yang Hongfu from Heavenly Master Tao, she had arranged with Ye Guichen beforehand to et at the foot of Great Cold Mountain and enter together.
Huang Fuqi was of the sa mind, opting not to et with Ye Guichen and heading to Great Cold Mountain alone.
Now, only Ye Guichen, Luo Huasheng, and Gongsun Fengying were together.
Long Yuntai wanted to go with Ye Guichen, but Ye Guichen sent him away directly.
Seeing Ye Guichen's reluctance, Long Yuntai had no choice but to return to the Esoteric Sect and report the arrival of the new Sect Master.
Ye Guichen personally drove the car, carrying the two of them, and as soon as they left Tianzhou, they finally found a restaurant and started eating.
Upon seeing Ye Guichen again, Gongsun Fengying seed sowhat excited, unlike her previous relaxed state, even a bit awkward.
Luo Huasheng didn't seem to care, maintaining his usual carefree deanor.
Half an hour earlier, Luo Huasheng had been shouting that he was hungry.
It was no use; he seed like a starving ghost reincarnated. Ever since Ye Guichen knew him, he appeared to always eat for several people.
Even before all the food arrived, Luo Huasheng was already eagerly gobbling up.
Gongsun Fengying pursed her lips, hesitant to speak.
Even if Ye Guichen went without food for days, it didn't matter much to him, but the aroma of the dishes was nonetheless enticing.
For Ye Guichen, dining was an enjoyable process, not rely for sustenance like Luo Huasheng.
"Mr. Ye, may I sit here?" Just as Ye Guichen was about to pick up his chopsticks to eat, a timid voice sounded.
Ye Guichen turned to see a young woman around twenty, dressed like a wealthy lady from ancient tis, standing next to him, looking uneasy.
Upon seeing this woman, Ye Guichen's expression went dark.
He naturally recognized her as Wu Hualong's daughter, Wu Nuannuan.
Ever since the day Gui Jianchou was eliminated, Wu Hualong had tried to push Wu Nuannuan to Ye Guichen.
Yet Ye Guichen paid no attention.
But in the ensuing days, Wu Nuannuan stayed at the Su Family, sticking close to Ye Guichen, insisting on serving him.
Ye Guichen clearly understood what Wu Nuannuan was aiming for, undoubtedly at Wu Hualong's behest, but he wasn't the type to lash out at a gentle, inoffensive girl.
He kept telling Wu Nuannuan that he was already engaged.
Wu Nuannuan simply pouted, brushing the matter aside, saying she only wished to serve Ye Guichen, not caring about any official status.
Ye Guichen felt overwheld.
When dealing with evildoers, he would strike or kill without hesitation.
But when facing such a delicate young girl, Ye Guichen was utterly clueless about what to do.
In the end, he stealthily left Su Mansion and Tianzhou before dawn, thinking Wu Nuannuan wouldn't continue pestering him after eting up with Luo Huasheng.
Yet to his surprise, Wu Nuannuan had followed him here.
Ye Guichen didn't even know how Wu Nuannuan managed not to lose track after such a lengthy pursuit.
"Ahem, Miss Nuannuan, you should go ho. We're on a serious mission this ti, not for fun!" Ye Guichen said helplessly.
Wu Nuannuan blinked her big eyes twice, "Mr. Ye, I know you're an extraordinary person. But my father said that since I've t you, I won't be able to fancy anyone else. Wherever you go, please let accompany you. Though I might not be able to assist you much, I can at least provide basic care. Besides, my father also told that if you insist on sending away, not to return ho."
