Chapter 206: Saint Pavilion

Yao Fei pondered quietly for a while and then his hand indicated for Xiao Teng to come closer and said something to him.

“Yes, Young Noble, please rest assured.” Xiao Teng answered respectfully at Yao Fei’s instruction.

With another wave of his hand, Xiao Teng withdrew.

At the same time, somewhere within the Guo Mansion, Guo Shiwen’s face appeared extremely gloomy as he looked at both of his sons being carried back. A scary killing intent brewed strongly in his heart.

“Huang Xiaolong!!” Guo Shiwen gritted his teeth and then let out an abrupt wrathful roar.

The Guo Family experts in the main hall shivered with trepidation. It was the first time the Guo Family members had experienced this level of rage from Guo Shiwen.

All kept quiet, reducing their presence as much as possible.

This even included Zhang Yue, the Chief Steward of the Guo Family.

There was a silent rage brewing inside of Zhang Yue too, a burning desire to slaughter. Guo Zhi and Guo Fei were the Young Lords of the Guo Family yet someone was daring enough to crush their Qi Seas, crippling them! This was a humiliation for the Guo Mansion, a naked provocation!

It was apparent the other side did not place the entire Guo Mansion in their eyes!

This Huang Xiaolong was too emboldened!

Today, the Guo Family had become the after dinner topic and joke for many of Duanren Empire’s big families.

As the Chief Steward of the Guo Family, Zhang Yue too was greatly angered by Huang Xiaolong.

“Patriarch, this matter, should we let Ancestor know?” Moments later Zhang Yue walked up and asked.

Guo Shiwen’s eyes were cold with hatred, “Father is in closed-door practice at this crucial moment in an attempt to break into the Saint realm. Don’t alert him with this matter.”

“Yes, Patriarch!” Zhang Yue answered. He hesitated before continuing, “Huang Xiaolong’s younger sister, Huang Min, has an engagement agreement with Young Master Guo Tai. Patriarch, this matter…?”

“Engaged?” Guo Shiwen scoffed, “Arrange for this secret letter to reach my younger brother, Shiyuan’s hand. Tell him to rescind that little brat Guo Tai’s engagement!”

“Huang Xiaolong’s little sister… cheap material such as her wishes to enter my Guo Family?!”

Zhang Yue received the secret letter and acknowledged Guo Shiwen’s instruction with respect. He then ventured, “Then, as for Huang Xiaolong?”

“Father will definitely succeed in breaking through to Saint realm during his secluded practice this time,” Guo Shiwen replied coldly, “We’ll deal with Huang Xiaolong and Zhao Shu once and for all after Father comes out!”

“Patriarch is wise!”

Three days passed.

The other big and super families that were waiting for the Guo Family’s lightning fast and frenzied retaliation towards Huang Xiaolong were expecting to watch a good show, but what surprised them was that the Guo Family did not take any action.

All was calm and peaceful.

This response made those waiting dumbfounded.

The Million Treasures Firm managed by the Guo Family was one of Duanren Empire’s three biggest firms with branches all over Duanren Empire’s territory. With unimaginable wealth and a foundation close to a thousand years, it was only slightly below the Xie and Yao Family level hegemonies. Yet when both of their Young Lords Qi Sea’s were broken, they actually endured in silence?!

This was so unlike the Guo Family’s style of handling things!

Even taking into consideration that Huang Xiaolong was a brother-in-arms with Second Imperial Prince Duan Wuhen, it still did not make sense for the Guo Family to be so quiet. Not even a fart could be heard?!

In short, the Guo Family’s reaction was too abnormal.

Not paying attention to the whispers around him and however the Guo Family wanted to react, Huang Xiaolong arrived at Duanren Institute almost like clockwork to ‘wander idly’ around the inner division grounds, attempting to capture any presence of the Absolute Soul Pearl until late evening before returning to Southern Hill Estate. Then, he triggered the God Binding Ring and once again entered the ancient battlefield to continue his practice.

Three days passed and there was zero harvest, he still failed to sense the Absolute Soul Pearl’s location.

Another ten days passed in the same way.
