Fan Wujie couldn’t help but smile and said, "The Great Elder must have heard about the grudge between our young master and Su Yang, right?"
The Great Elder nodded, his expression softened even more. On this point, both sides stood on the sa front.
Fan Wujie continued, "That Su Yang is arrogant and conceited. Whether it’s at Qinghe Academy or here in Capital City, he has targeted our young master multiple tis. Therefore, our young master has been thinking about having a good fight with him, to resolve all matters at once!"
The Great Elder was very surprised. What was the aning of Fan Wujie saying these words to him? Everyone in Capital City knew that there were deep grudges between Ge Kaiyang and Su Yang, and a fight was inevitable. But what does this have to do with the Wang Family?
Fan Wujie noticed the Great Elder’s thoughts and chuckled. He added, "However, when should this fight take place?"
The Great Elder’s mind raced. What did Fan Wujie an by saying that?
Fan Wujie suddenly said, "Great Elder, what do you think about having this fight with Su Yang tonight? Would it be appropriate?"
The Great Elder’s eyes lit up. He finally understood Fan Wujie’s intention.
At this point in ti, everyone in Capital City was watching the Wang Family. How the Wang Family handled tonight would be a troubleso matter.
However, if at this ti, Ge Kaiyang publicly challenged Su Yang, then the Wang Family could completely avoid tonight’s affairs.
By then, it wouldn’t be a matter of the Wang Family not daring to confront Su Yang, but rather that Su Yang would be preoccupied.
If the Wang Family intervened now, wouldn’t that seem a bit underhanded?
It’s not that the Wang Family doesn’t want to act, but rather that circumstances do not permit it!
Thus, the timing of Ge Kaiyang’s challenge to Su Yang was critical for the Wang Family.
The Master Wang and others also had their eyes brighten. If Ge Kaiyang challenged Su Yang tonight, then the Wang Family could completely sidestep this pressing issue.
However, Fan Wujie personally coming to them about this matter certainly wasn’t just a simple notification!
The Great Elder took a deep breath to suppress his excitent and said in a low voice, "What Mr. Fan ans to say is?"
"Our young master hopes that many people from Capital City’s major families will be present to witness the fight," Fan Wujie said with a light smile.
The Great Elder frowned. What Fan Wujie said sounded casual, but he imdiately understood his intention.
Basically, it was to have the Wang Family step in to invite the people from the major families in Capital City to watch the battle. The purpose was plain: Ge Kaiyang wanted to make a na for himself during the fight and to let those major families witness him defeating Su Yang.
Since Ge Kaiyang’s arrival in Capital City, he had faced successive losses and gained no advantage. This led so to start doubting whether the Jade-Faced Judge was out of options, otherwise, why would he send such a grandson here.
Fan Wujie had a well-thought-out plan. He wanted to use this opportunity as a stepping stone to wash away past disgraces for Ge Kaiyang, making a na and gaining prestige in Capital City.
However, the Great Elder couldn’t understand why Ge Kaiyang needed such fa in Capital City? If he didn’t plan to stay, what was the point of the large reputation?
The Great Elder contemplated for a while and laughed, "Does Young Master Ge plan to reside permanently in Capital City?"
"Of course not," Fan Wujie laughed, "Although Capital City is nice, our young master is used to his life back ho and won’t stay here long."
"Then why does Young Master Ge insist on having so many spectators?" the Great Elder asked with curiosity.
Fan Wujie laughed, "Does the Great Elder not know that the Ten Great Sects are about to arrive in Capital City?"
The Great Elder was initially stunned and then even more astonished, "Does Young Master Ge intend to go to the Ten Great Sects?"
The Great Elder was very skeptical of this. After all, Ge Kaiyang was the grandson of the Jade-Faced Judge, and he did not need to seek out the Ten Great Sects.
While the Ten Great Sects were powerful, the Jade-Faced Judge was not afraid of them. And surely, the grandson of the Jade-Faced Judge would not be in a hurry to enter the Earthly Immortal Realm. So, Ge Kaiyang shouldn’t really be considering the Ten Great Sects.
"That is our own business," said Fan Wujie with a light smile. "Great Elder, what are your thoughts?"
The Great Elder pondered for a while. He understood Fan Wujie’s intention. Fan Wujie wanted the Wang Family to step forward to invite the other major families to witness tonight’s fight.
This task wasn’t difficult for the Wang Family, which had a very high status in Capital City.
But the key issue was, after inviting so many people tonight, what role would the Wang Family be playing in this matter? Would others see them as part of Ge Kaiyang’s camp?
The Great Elder did not know what Fan Wujie and the others were planning, but from what he knew of Ge Kaiyang, the man was extrely cunning and surely wouldn’t make things that simple. Hence, he really hesitated over this matter.
Fan Wujie remained calm, leisurely sipping his tea, and said with a faint smile, "Great Elder, take your ti to consider. There’s no rush. After all, it’s still early for tonight!"
How could the Great Elder not be in a hurry? It was nearly noon, and they had little ti left. Moreover, the Great Elder was well aware that they had no room for retreat now.
If they didn’t agree to Fan Wujie’s proposal, then they would have to directly confront Su Yang.
What would it be tonight? A head-on clash with Su Yang or cowering in fear?
The forr would lead to the complete ruin of the Wang Family, while the latter would make the Wang Family lose all their honor, and even if they managed to keep their power, they would never be able to hold their heads high in Capital City again!
Thus, after much deliberation, the Wang Family ultimately had no choice but to cooperate with Ge Kaiyang and his people!
Perhaps Ge Kaiyang and his folks had other ulterior motives, but for now, the Wang Family had to get past this imdiate problem.
Future matters could be dealt with in the future!
Taking a deep breath, the Great Elder said in a grave voice, "Alright, it’s settled then. Where do you plan to have this battle?"
"Purple Lotus Garden is not a bad place," Fan Wujie said with a smile.
"Then I’ll make the arrangents," said the Great Elder.
"Thank you!" Fan Wujie said politely with a bow, and standing up, added, "We’ll go back and make arrangents. Tonight, we’ll have an end with Mr. Su!"
The Great Elder stood up to see Fan Wujie to the door, hesitated, and then asked in a low voice, "Regarding this battle, how confident is Young Master Ge of winning?"
"One hundred percent!" Fan Wujie replied straightforwardly.
"One hundred percent?" The Great Elder’s brow furrowed slightly. "I’ve heard that Young Master Ge fought Su Yang at Qinghe Academy and faced him again after coming out. In the first encounter, Young Master Ge had the upper hand. In the second, it was a draw. Since then, Su Yang has significantly improved in strength. This one hundred percent confidence of Young Master Ge..."
