"I wouldn't say we have a sure thing, but with more people, our chances would be even greater, wouldn't they? If it were up to Su Xing alone, he probably wouldn't get a single one," Gong Wentao shook his head, speaking with confidence as if he was certain Su Fan wouldn't refuse.
"Alright, I'll join. Send me the information."
Su Fan added Gong Wentao on WeChat for future contact.
"Take care, Brother Su," Gong Wentao waved at Su Fan with a smile, showing great enthusiasm.
"Young Master Gong, who was that?"
After Su Fan left, a subordinate beside him dared to speak.
"Someone you can't afford to offend."
Gong Wentao said softly.
The Su family has appeared, will the hidden families also show themselves?
Gong Wentao suddenly realized that the ancient martial arts world was about to become turbulent!
"Young Master Gong, what about Yan Wenxuan?"
The subordinate looked at the still unconscious Yan Wenxuan and asked Gong Wentao.
"Throw him out, he's a disgrace!" Gong Wentao glanced at Yan Wenxuan with disgust.
If it weren't for needing money in the secular world and relying on these businessmen for help, he wouldn't have gotten involved with someone like him.
A poison addict who harms himself and others!
...
After leaving the Gong family, Su Fan sent Liu Qing home.
"Why are you getting mixed up with them again?" Su Fan asked Liu Qing with a displeased expression.
"I... I just wanted revenge..." Liu Qing said softly.
She only wanted to get revenge on Yan Wenxuan, but when she got there and saw so many people, she didn't dare to act.
Su Fan examined Liu Qing's body and noticed her right pocket was bulging. Su Fan reached out and pulled a spring-loaded knife from her pocket.
This was what Liu Qing had prepared to deal with Yan Wenxuan, but she hadn't used it.
"Do you know what would have happened to you if they had found it?" Su Fan said expressionlessly.
"I... I... don't know." Liu Qing stammered. She knew she had been impulsive and shouldn't have gone to find Yan Wenxuan.
"If anything like this happens again, call me in advance," Su Fan said softly.
"You... you'll go with me?" Liu Qing looked at Su Fan with some emotion, surprised that Brother Xiao Fan cared so much about her.
"So I can collect your corpse!" Su Fan said coldly.
"If it weren't for the fact that I wouldn't know how to explain to Uncle Liu, do you think I'd want to save you!" Su Fan said indignantly.
Wouldn't it be better to play games at home? Why should he risk his life to save Liu Qing? It was only because Liu Qing was someone he had brought out, and if something happened, how could he explain it to Uncle Liu?
"I'm sorry, I won't do it again," Liu Qing said softly.
"Next time? Hmph! Once you're completely recovered, go home! Don't cause trouble for me here!" Su Fan already had enough problems, and Liu Qing was adding to them, which made Su Fan very angry.
Liu Qing felt a little wronged, looking at Su Fan with teary eyes.
"Don't look at me like that, I don't fall for that!" Su Fan softened his tone.
"Brother Xiao Fan, do you... do you have a girlfriend?" Liu Qing's expression suddenly changed, and she asked Su Fan coyly.
"Huh? No, why?" Su Fan was completely bewildered. Liu Qing's change was too abrupt, she had looked like she was about to cry just a moment ago.
"Then will you be my boyfriend?" Liu Qing asked expectantly.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Don't even think about it!" Su Fan immediately refused. When Liu Qing asked this question, the first person Su Fan thought of was Su Yutong.
"But, Auntie has already gone to my house to propose." Liu Qing said with a wronged expression.
"What!"
Su Fan never imagined his mother was serious about this. Didn't she even inform him?
Su Fan, forgetting about Liu Qing, immediately called his mother.
"Mom! What are you doing? Why didn't you tell me you were going to propose?"
Su Fan asked his mother.
"What do I need to tell you? You kids don't need to worry about it. Your father and Uncle Liu have already discussed the marriage. We'll arrange a banquet in a while to finalize the wedding," Liu Jie said with a smile.
"What wedding? I don't plan to marry Liu Qing!" Su Fan knew he couldn't hesitate any longer. He had to make things clear to his mother, or there would be big trouble.
"What's wrong with you? Qingqing is perfectly fine, what's wrong with you? Are you trying to sleep with her and then deny responsibility?" Liu Jie immediately became unhappy and lectured Su Fan through the phone.
"What do you mean sleep with her and deny responsibility? Nothing happened between me and her, okay? Can't you stop worrying about it?"
"Don't think I don't know. Qingqing is already living with you, and you still want to argue? Stop the nonsense, I've decided on Qingqing as my daughter-in-law, and no one can change my mind!" Liu Jie hung up the phone after saying that.
Su Fan was speechless.
"What is going on!"
Su Fan was very helpless. It seemed he needed to find an opportunity to explain things properly to his mother, preferably with Liu Qing present.
Su Fan needed to figure out the matter of the ancient martial arts families.
In New City, there was only one person Su Fan knew who was related to ancient martial arts, and that was Su Yutong's father, Su Dongsheng.
"Su Dongsheng? Could they be the real Su family?"
Su Fan suddenly realized that Su Yutong's father also had the surname Su.
"Could it be such a coincidence?"
The family he had casually made up was actually right beside him?
Su Fan came to Su Yutong's house and rang the doorbell.
"Xiao Su? Why are you here?" Zhang Yuwei opened the door and was very surprised to see Su Fan, mainly because Su Fan was alone and his daughter was not with him.
"Auntie, I need to see Uncle Su about something. Is he here?" Su Fan asked.
"He is. Come in quickly." Zhang Yuwei let Su Fan in.
"Dongsheng, Xiao Su is looking for you. Come out quickly," Zhang Yuwei called towards the study.
Soon, Su Dongsheng came out of the study when he heard the noise.
Su Dongsheng had fully recovered now and had no issues with his mobility.
"Xiao Su is here. Come, let's talk," Su Dongsheng seemed to have guessed why Su Fan was here and invited Su Fan to the study.
Su Fan walked over and sat opposite Su Dongsheng.
Su Dongsheng poured Su Fan a cup of tea.
Su Fan bent his index and middle fingers together and gently tapped the tabletop twice as a gesture of thanks.
"You're here about the ancient martial arts world, aren't you?"
Before Su Fan could say anything, Su Dongsheng had already guessed.
Su Fan nodded.
"Yes, I met someone from the Gong family in the capital today. It seems like many people from the ancient martial arts world have come to New City. Do you know why?"
Su Fan asked.
"The ancient inheritance has appeared, and the hidden families and sects can't sit still. They want to get a piece of the pie. They are all here for the ancient inheritance," Su Dongsheng explained.
"Ancient inheritance? What is that?" Su Fan asked doubtfully.
"The ancient inheritance is a cultivation method passed down by the ancients. It is even older than ancient martial arts, with a history of at least a thousand years. Its power is also incomparable to ancient martial arts."
"So they have all come to New City. Is the ancient inheritance in New City?" Su Fan continued to ask.
"No, the ancient inheritance is not in New City. They are just here to compete for the qualification to enter the inheritance land," Su Dongsheng took a sip of tea and continued to enlighten Su Fan.
