Before Xiao Ding could speak, a surprised voice suddenly ca from outside the door, "Master Su, you are here too?"
Everyone turned their heads, only to see Young Master Qin and two others rushing in, completely ignoring Wang Hui and the others on the ground, and walked straight to Su Yang, bowed deeply, "Greetings, Master Su!"
These three, all mbers of the Ten Great Families, held considerable status within. Yet now, before Su Yang, they showed utmost respect, as if they were in the presence of their own Family Head, striking awe into the onlookers.
Wang Hui and the others were dumbfounded once again. mbers of the Ten Great Families, they are the true personifications of privilege. Yet even they treated Su Yang with such reverence – could Su Yang’s identity be simple?
It was just their ignorance, not having heard of the events at the Dragon Head eting in May or the na "Master Su." Otherwise, they probably would have been scared out of their wits!
Su Yang smiled lightly and asked, "Are you friends with this Wang Hui?"
Young Master Qin glanced at Wang Hui with disdain, "Master Su, there’s been a misunderstanding; we just shared a al together, no close relationship whatsoever. If they dare to provoke Master Su, they are enemies of the Ten Great Families!"
Wang Hui was stunned yet again. He had always had a good relationship with Young Master Qin and his peers, but now Young Master Qin had turned his back on him just like that?
Of course, the astute among the crowd caught the emphasis in Young Master Qin’s words: the enemy of the Ten Great Families.
Offend Su Yang and beco the enemy of the Ten Great Families? Could Su Yang truly wield the influence to move all of the Ten Great Families?
"It’s not a big deal, just a small matter, no need to escalate to such a level!" Su Yang smiled, "Go on and have fun, there’s no need to make such a fuss."
"Yes!" Young Master Qin paused, then said in a low voice, "My grandfather, along with the Nan Family’s old master, are almost nearby. Shall I inform them and have them co pay a visit to Master Su?"
At these words, Wang Hui and the others nearly panicked.
Young Master Qin’s grandfather is none other than Qin Haishan, the Family Head of the Qin Family. The old master of the Nan Family is the venerable Nan Wudi.
In Pingnan Province, these were towering figures!
Even Wang Hui’s father might not be able to et Qin Haishan and Nan Wudi. After all, governnt officials co and go, but the Ten Great Families have stood firm for a hundred years, deeply rooted in power. Wang Hui’s father’s position could hardly draw their attention!
Yet these two formidable figures from Pingnan, Heaven-defying in their own right, were both willing to visit Su Yang, an idea that simply shook everyone to the core.
Who exactly was Su Yang, that even the two great family heads would personally pay a tribute to him?
Furthermore, when Young Master Qin spoke, it was with an air of it being the most natural thing, without a hint of strain – which magnified the shock! The Ten Great Families didn’t find anything amiss with such an arrangent, which was astonishing!
"Master Su..." Young Master Huang’s expression suddenly changed; pointing at Su Yang, he stamred, "He... he is that Master Su?"
"Which Master Su?" Master Lü asked in surprise.
"Haven’t you heard? The Master Su who triumphed at the Dragon Head eting in May!" Young Master Huang spoke in a hushed tone, "This May’s Dragon Head eting was a joint event between Pingnan and Pingbei Provinces, with combatants below the level of Terrestrial Immortals from both provinces. The overall winner was this Master Su! He fought in seventeen battles, defeating five Sovereigns and twelve warriors of the Integration Realm. Even the Smiling Buddha, ranked seventh on the Evil List, who controlled so people to challenge him, did not gain any advantage!"
"No way?" Master Lü’s eyes widened. "How is that possible? He’s just a high school student, how could he possibly be that Master Su?"
"I heard that Master Su really isn’t that old..." Young Master Huang looked at Su Yang, his face a mix of shock and awe. "Could it... could it really be him?"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Master Lü shook his head repeatedly. "A high school student, able to defeat all the experts from both Pingnan and Pingbei Provinces, do you think that’s possible? Even if he truly were a prodigious talent, he couldn’t have such strength at such a young age. Even Ye Jiansheng from back then, might not have been able to do it. Do you really think he’s stronger than Ye Jiansheng was in those days?"
Scratching his head, Young Master Huang felt unsure; after all, Ye Jiansheng was indeed a genius admired by everyone in the world. But even at this age, Ye Jiansheng couldn’t have been the best in both provinces, so how could Su Yang possibly do it?
"But no matter what, soone who gets two family heads to make a personal visit can’t be a simple character!" Young Master Huang said in a low voice, "Let it go, Old Lü, today, we’ve taken a fall!"
"Taken a fall?" Master Lü scoffed. "Not necessarily!"
"What do you an?" Young Master Huang asked, puzzled.
"Don’t forget, that person from the Chen Family has also arrived in Pingnan Province," Master Lü said coldly. "That person is soone Ye Zhenying and Shangguan Ge have to personally receive!"
"Are you talking about the Monster of the Chen Family?" Young Master Huang frowned. "He has co to Pingnan Province?"
"Exactly," confird Master Lü. "I got the ssage that he arrived quite early. However, he hasn’t shown up yet. He should appear at tonight’s eting of Pingnan Province’s top ten families."
Young Master Huang spoke with a serious tone. "Even if he appears, then what? We’re not very close to him, this monster has always had a bad relationship with us, could he possibly help us?"
"In Capital City the relationship is bad, but outside, everyone is from the Capital City. If we, locals, are bullied, could he ignore it?" Master Lü scoffed. "Don’t forget, there are rules among the Ten Great Families of the Capital City to help each other."
"But we’re not one of the Ten Great Families of the Capital City..." Young Master Huang said.
"But once you leave the Capital City, we’re all our own people. If we’re bullied, and the surnad Chen ignores it, once back, he’s sure to be condemned by the other families. Chen’s not stupid, what do you think he’ll do?" Master Lü answered.
Young Master Huang scratched his head; indeed that made sense.
"So what do we do now?" Young Master Huang asked quietly.
"Bend the knee for now and pass this problem," Master Lü said sternly. "Tonight, find the Monster of the Chen Family and deal with him properly!"
"Alright then!" Young Master Huang nodded slowly, glancing at Su Yang with anger burning in his heart.
The Huang Family had a Heavenly List expert; even in Capital City, no one dared to wound him so grievously. Su Yang actually broke his arm, this was the ultimate insult to him, an insult he could never swallow no matter what!
At that mont, Su Yang also looked over at Wang Hui and asked softly, "Wang Shao, do you want to ask your dad to co over and sort this out?"
Wang Hui was completely dazed with fear. He hadn’t heard what Young Master Huang and Master Lü had said behind his back, naturally oblivious to their ulterior motives. But upon learning that both Nan Wudi and Qin Haishan were personally coming to visit Su Yang, he caved in.
These were big shots that even his dad had to ask to see; with them using the term ’visit’ for Su Yang, what was he in front of Su Yang, nothing right?
