Chapter 171: Chapter 171: The Su Family Is Rising
"Feng...Young Master Feng?"
Ouyang Chu trembled all over, extremely terrified, "A late-stage Tribulation powerhouse actually calls him Young Master Feng!"
"Isn’t Gu Chenfeng a disciple of the Ancient Divine Sect? Why would a late-stage Tribulation powerhouse be so respectful to him?" Ouyang Jingyuan’s eyes widened, his heart nearly leaping out.
What kind of existence has Ouyang Chu provoked?
There was no time for them to dwell on their terror.
"Spare us, Young Master Feng." Ouyang Jingyuan and the strong figures of the three major families all kowtowed and begged for mercy.
At present, the fate of the three major families lies entirely in Gu Chenfeng’s hands.
With just a word from Gu Chenfeng, Yao Hun would mercilessly eliminate their three families.
Gu Chenfeng smiled faintly, "They do not deserve your effort."
Upon hearing this from Gu Chenfeng, the three families found immense relief, feeling as though a great amnesty had been granted.
Earlier, they genuinely felt as if they had walked through the gates of hell.
"Leave," Yao Hun said coldly, his icy gaze sweeping once again over the people from the three families.
Just one word, imbued with overwhelming might, felt like a punishment from the heavens, terrifying the members of the three families into fleeing.
A shocked and terrified Su Xiangyang quickly clasped his hands in thanks, "Thank you, sir, for your intervention."
"No need to be courteous," Yao Hun smiled faintly, "The Su Family is a friend of Young Master Feng, and naturally also a friend of mine. We may need the Su Patriarch’s help in the future."
A seemingly simple comment from Yao Hun carried significant weight.
Yao Hun was telling everyone that to move against the Su Family, they would have to deal with him.
This implied that the Su Family now had the backing of a powerful late-stage Tribulation figure!
This undoubtedly allowed the Su Family to firmly secure their footing.
Every cultivator in the Imperial City, as long as they weren’t foolish, understood the message in Yao Hun’s words, and their hearts were repeatedly shaken.
"The Su Family is rising!"
"I never expected the Su Family to have such fortune. Truly enviable."
"I initially thought the Su Family was done for, but a miracle has occurred—not only have they not been wiped out, but they now have the backing of a late-stage Tribulation powerhouse."
"Even though the three major families haven’t been destroyed, their future won’t be easy."
The cultivators of the Imperial City all whispered among themselves.
The Su Patriarch naturally understood the meaning of Yao Hun’s words, his heart overjoyed, quickly clasping his hands in assurance, "As long as the Su Family is capable, we will not decline!"
The entire Su Family couldn’t have been more thrilled.
The Su Family now had the protection of a late-stage Tribulation powerhouse—who would dare mess with the Su Family? Who would dare provoke them?
The Su Family’s subsidiary forces and allies were also extremely excited.
From now on, they could stride ahead fearlessly.
Yao Hun then turned to look at Xiao Hanfeng, smiling gently, "Chief Xiao, it has been many years since we last met, and this time upon meeting, you have broken through to the Seventh Grade realm. Truly enviable, and now you can be promoted to Elder of the Artifact Refining Pavilion—congratulations."
"Thank you, Great Venerable," Xiao Hanfeng bowed in gratitude, overwhelmed with favor.
With a wave of Yao Hun’s hand, a black scroll flew towards Xiao Hanfeng, accompanied by a gentle smile, "Chief Xiao, the Clan Leader commanded me to deliver this to you."
"This is..." Xiao Hanfeng looked at Yao Hun in confusion.
Yao Hun chuckled, "Chief Xiao will understand upon reading."
With those words.
Yao Hun turned to Gu Chenfeng, his gaze filled with respect, clasped his hands in salute, "Young Master Feng, we’ll meet at the Ancient Divine Sect."
Yao Hun’s respectful salute was like another heavy blow, fiercely pounding every cultivator’s heart.
Gu Chenfeng merely smiled without speaking.
High in the sky.
A vortex of flame energy appeared out of thin air, Yao Hun stepped into it and then vanished.
The formidable display once again shocked everyone in the Imperial City.
"Yao Qinghe? Great Venerable?" An elderly man furrowed his brows deeply, speculating, "Could it be the Medicine God Hall?"
"What? Medicine God Hall?"
"Just now I heard Yao Qinghe’s name, and he is a Sixth Grade Alchemist, and the surname Yao is only associated with Medicine God Hall."
"Is that late-stage Tribulation figure from Medicine God Hall? Has the Medicine God Hall emerged?"
"Yes! That’s right! It must be Medicine God Hall! That young man is called Yao Qinghe, and he called that figure Great Venerable! The Su Family is truly rising now!"
Realizing it’s a figure from Medicine God Hall, everyone in the Imperial City experienced a tidal wave within their hearts.
The more they speculated, the more shocked they became.
"No wonder he’s Great Venerable, his strength is unparalleled." Yi Tianjun and Nie Yuan were exceptionally excited, yearning for the strong power of the Tribulation Stage.
Gu Chenfeng smiled faintly, "Yao Hun has fully mastered the Ancient Demon Fire, and his Fire Attribute Spiritual Power is not inferior to Special Attributes, no wonder his strength is so formidable."
"This kid is indeed extraordinary, worthy of being a genius of Medicine God Hall," the little Fire Dragon communicated, "But compared to my Ancient Fire Attribute Spiritual Power, his Demon Fire is still lacking; I’ll give him some pointers next time."
"..." Gu Chenfeng.
Shifting his gaze slightly to the side, Gu Chenfeng looked at the petrified Su Shisan, smiling, "Su Shisan, why are you just standing there? Aren’t you going to take the Storage Rings from the Shenxiao Pavilion’s strong figures?"
Hearing Gu Chenfeng’s voice, Su Shisan suddenly snapped out of it, horrified as he glanced at Gu Chenfeng, unable to help but take a deep breath.
Gu Chenfeng was terrifying.
At this moment, Su Shisan finally realized that Gu Chenfeng was far from just an ordinary disciple of the Ancient Divine Sect.
Otherwise, a late-stage Tribulation powerhouse would be absolutely impossible to be so respectful to him.
Moreover, Yao Qinghe earlier addressed Yao Hun as Great Venerable, indicating an unimaginably powerful force behind them.
Of course.
Su Shisan also secretly rejoiced that he hadn’t become enemies with Gu Chenfeng earlier.
Fortunately, Yinyang Wan’Er appeared back then, completely astonishing Su Shisan, or else he might not have stopped.
"I’ll immediately send someone!" Su Shisan promptly replied, an intense excitement surging through him.
Su Shisan felt an unprecedented sense of achievement for the first time.
Thanks to his relentless efforts, he had succeeded in befriending Gu Chenfeng and had now successfully saved the entire Su Family.
Suppressing the excitement within, Su Shisan ordered, "Su Mo, immediately gather people to clean up."
"Yes, Young Master!" Su Mo was overwhelmingly excited, promptly rallying the clan.
Hundreds of strong figures from Shenxiao Pavilion had fallen, including Donghuang Haotian and the three great Elders, and their Royal Artifacts were invaluable treasures, not to mention the Storage Rings.
The Storage Rings of the Divinity Transformation Stage figures surely held numerous treasures, perhaps even a Celestial Technique.
The presence of a Celestial Technique is extremely precious, even for major forces.
Su Xiangyang subsequently ordered, "Great Elder, take people immediately to Shenxiao Pavilion."
"Yes, Patriarch!" Su Qianshan responded respectfully.
"From now on, Shenxiao Pavilion has also become a subsidiary force of the Su Family."
"Isn’t this quite normal? Survival of the fittest, Shenxiao Pavilion lost, so they must bear the consequences."
Even though Su Xiangyang didn’t expressly state it, everyone present knew the Su Family intended to absorb Shenxiao Pavilion.
Su Xiangyang took out an elixir, looking around at everyone, suppressing his severe injuries with a faint smile, "This elixir is called the Profound Soul Bodhi Pill, a Sixth Grade Pill with the powerful effect of enhancing Soul Power."
"What this Patriarch wants to say is, the Su Family can produce this pill."
