Chapter 1369 — Tipping Off
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"Oh, since Sun Jingyan is a woman the old Chief has set his eyes on, I, as a lowly underling, naturally can't take her from him. I can only steel my heart and give her up! But it's no matter. What true man frets over finding a wife? Once I, Wu Chengtian, become a Mystic Rank expert, I'll have whichever woman I want. Three wives and four concubines won't be a problem either!" Wu Chengtian took it all very philosophically. "Sun Jingyan is fine enough, but she doesn't belong to me, and I won't waste my heart on her — it saves me from displeasing the old Chief. All right, Grandfather, I'll stop talking to you now. I have to go find Chief Goudan right away!"
"You... you... unfilial grandson! A truly unfilial grandson! You'll be the death of me..." Wu Gonggao's heart gave a wrenching spasm; his eyes rolled up and he keeled over in a dead faint.
But Wu Chengtian had already hung up, and had no idea that his grandfather Wu Gonggao had fainted once again.
Wu Chengtian raced over to the Gu family villa where Wei Zhao was staying and pressed the doorbell.
When the door god Er Goudan heard the bell, he opened the door and stepped out to see who it was. Finding Wu Chengtian outside, he blinked in surprise. "You... you're that Wu... Wu something. What are you doing here?"
"Wu Chengtian!" Wu Chengtian introduced himself with a face wreathed in smiles. "Chief Goudan, I've come to bring you a warning!"
"A warning? What do you mean?" Er Goudan was startled, and rather at a loss.
"It's like this: I have it from a reliable source that Jin Wudi, the head of the Golden Bell Sect, has come down from the mountain for the sole purpose of making trouble for old Chief Wei Zhao. They say he's a master at the peak of the early Earth Rank. I wonder whether Chief Goudan is confident he can handle him?" Wu Chengtian laid out the purpose of his visit.
"Peak of the early Earth Rank? Is that very impressive?" Er Goudan frowned. He had lived in a mountain village before, and never had much grasp of these rankings of strength, so he was genuinely asking whether an Earth Rank master was formidable.
But to Wu Chengtian's ears it became a scornful retort: is an Earth Rank expert really so impressive?
"Haha, in the eyes of a Chief like you, naturally not. But I hear the man's body-hardening external arts have reached the very pinnacle, that he is a grand master of the Golden Bell Shield. An ordinary Heaven Rank expert can do nothing against him!" Wu Chengtian warned.
"Pinnacle of the Golden Bell Shield? If he dares come, I'll kill him with one punch!" Er Goudan cared nothing for any Golden Bell Shield. If the man truly dared come here looking for trouble, he would simply punch him dead.
"Hahahahaha!" Suddenly a shrill burst of laughter came from beyond the villa's gate!
From a business van stepped an old man in a white robe — the laughter came from his mouth. Behind the white-robed elder followed Zhen Dazhou, Zhen Yingjun, Pi Zhifeng, the two Xiao brothers, and Zhao Qibing seated in his wheelchair!
Every one of these people harbored a direct grievance against Wei Zhao, and so, after calling on Jin Wudi one by one, they had followed along to watch the fight. And the white-robed elder was none other than Jin Wudi!
Zhen Yingjun, Pi Zhifeng, the Xiao brothers, Zhao Qibing — every last one of them believed that this time, Wei Zhao was doomed beyond any doubt!
With Jin Wudi, a master at the peak of the early Earth Rank and a grand master of the Golden Bell Shield, Wei Zhao could only be beaten to death one blow after another; there was no way he could do a thing to the man! So all of them had rushed over to watch the spectacle — to see how Wei Zhao would die!
