Chapter 90: Senior, No!
Chapter 90: Senior, No!
When the youth heard that he was here for Wang Jiajun, his eyes flashed.
He suddenly understood why this person looked so familiar.
It was because this person looked very similar to the police officer.
Thus, the youth replied to Wang Zhixing, "Wait!"
After closing the door, the young man went to his senior brother again.
"Senior Brother, someone is outside looking for that police officer."
The young man frowned and muttered, "What is with today?"
"By the way, Senior Brother, that person and the police officer look quite alike. They might be twins," the young man said innocently.
The young man’s face immediately darkened. First, it was the police, and now, someone suspected to be his twin was here. He found the situation strange.
Hence, he went to the Dean, Gu Hongtao, and explained the situation to him.
All those elders were present, and they heard everything.
One of the old men with a slit in his brow slapped the table and said sternly, "Gu Hongtao, did you call the police here on purpose just because you don’t want to compete?"
Gu Hongtao said calmly, "Brother Zheng, do you think I will do that?"
The old man with an eyebrow slit snorted with a smile. "The police are here, aren’t they? I’m guessing you did that because you’re afraid of losing to us."
Gu Hongtao took a sip of tea and said calmly, "The competition will not be canceled. And, we are not so weak to be afraid of you."
With that said, his body instantly erupted with the aura of a powerhouse.
In an instant,
the square tables in front of them cracked and collapsed.
Seeing this, the expression of the old man with the eyebrow slit changed abruptly. His gaze was filled with wariness.
He thought to himself, To be able to control his energies to such an extent… he has obviously reached the peak of the Great Grandmaster realm.
This old fox has been lying low for so long. He must have been waiting for this day.
But no matter how strong you are, your subordinates aren’t as strong as you.
After Gu Hongtao shattered the table, he retracted his aura and walked away without looking at everyone’s expressions.
…
At the entrance of the Flag Mountain Martial Arts Academy, Wang Zhixing was filled with anticipation. His son kept lingering in his mind.
At this moment, the door creaked open.
It was Gu Hongtao.
The moment he saw Wang Zhixing, his pupils suddenly dilated, and he subconsciously took two or three steps back.
"This person…" Gu Hongtao’s eyes were wide in shock.
In his vision, Wang Zhixing’s aura was like a massive ball of flames, oppressing him.
He’s an expert! Gu Hongtao realized at lightning speed.
This aura must be above the Transcendent realm.
But he looks like he’s only in his thirties or forties. Does a young Transcendent expert even exist in this world?"
Is he… from that place?
If he is, why would he come looking for that insignificant police officer?
"Right! They look alike.
Are they related by blood?
If that’s the case, everything makes sense.
For a time, Gu Hongtao thought about many things.
At the same time, his body’s condition had changed, but he hadn’t realized that.
His forehead was covered in sweat, and his rosy complexion had turned pale.
When Wang Zhixing saw this, out of goodwill, he stepped forward
Gu Hongtao came back to his senses and took a few steps back nervously. His eyes were filled with fear.
"…"
I didn’t do anything. Why does he seem so afraid of me?
Wang Zhixing did not understand.
Gu Hongtao wiped the sweat off his forehead and looked at Wang Zhixing with lingering fear.
The oppressive aura that came surging earlier was too terrifying.
He thought, Those people are so brazen. They don’t even restrain their aura when they are out.
In truth, Wang Zhixing couldn’t restrain his aura. He did not know how to do that at all.
Moreover, he was unaware that he had such a strong aura.
To be honest, if the person opposite him were not Gu Hongtao but an ordinary person, he would not behave like this.
Gu Hongtao practiced martial arts, and he was quite strong as well. At his level, he could see things that ordinary people could not, like aura.
Wang Zhixing was a cultivator. Although he was only in the second class of Qi Refinement, his aura was not something that martial artists could compare to.
Most importantly, he hadn’t begun cultivating for long and didn’t know how to restrain his aura.
Gu Hongtao calmed himself down and walked forward slowly. He bowed to Wang Zhixing. "Senior, it is my honor to have you here."
"…"
He was stunned.
"Um… friend, I’m here to look for someone. You don’t need to be so polite."
Wang Zhixing felt rather embarrassed, so he returned the bow.
When he saw this, Gu Hongtao’s expression changed, and he was scared out of his wits.
"Senior, no, no!"
Gu Hongtao immediately reached out to hold him, but the moment he touched him, he froze.
He had originally wanted to lift Wang Zhixing’s hand, but it felt as heavy as a mountain.
A Transcendent realm expert is so terrifying!
At once, he broke out in cold sweat. His back felt chilly.
After Wang Zhixing returned the bow, he said, "Um, friend, I’m here to look for someone."
Gu Hongtao bowed and asked respectfully, "Senior, are you looking for Officer Wang?"
Wang Zhixing nodded. "Correct, he is my s… a very good friend of mine."
He initially wanted to say that Wang Jiajun was his son.
However, the main reason he came this time was to give him a surprise. What if the person in front of him suddenly informed him?
Then there would be no surprise.
So he simply said they were friends. That way, nothing would go wrong.
Gu Hongtao could not help heave a sigh of relief after hearing him.
Fortunately, he didn’t make things difficult for the police earlier. Otherwise, he would be in big trouble.
"Senior, Officer Wang is currently speaking to my junior. Do you want to go over now?" Gu Hongtao asked respectfully.
Wang Zhixing thought it over. His son would not have come here for no reason. He was probably here for a case.
Since he was talking to someone, he didn’t want to disturb him. He decided to find a place to sit and wait.
He looked around and saw a stone table not far away.
Thus, Wang Zhixing walked over while Gu Hongtao followed behind respectfully.
Wang Zhixing placed the box on the stone table and sat on the stone stool.
Gu Hongtao panicked when he saw Wang Zhixing sitting here.
He thought, My question must have made him unhappy.
"Senior, how can you sit here?"
"I will show you to the room. I have some good tea that has been treasured for more than a hundred years. Please have a taste."
Gu Hongtao offered nervously.
Wang Zhixing smiled. "There’s no need for such trouble."
"That won’t do! It is my great honor to have you here. I cannot let you sit here." Gu Hongtao was very determined.
Wang Zhixing looked at Gu Hongtao strangely. He thought to himself, I have interacted with the people from the north in my early years. They were enthusiastic but not as crazy as this. First, he bowed. Then, he calls me senior. Is it a special custom here?"
Gu Hongtao saw that Wang Zhixing was deep in thought. He panicked again and broke out in cold sweat.
"Senior must be testing me… Since that’s the case…"
Gu Hongtao gritted his teeth and said, "Senior, pl-please forgive me for the poor hospitality."
Gu Hongtao immediately knelt before Wang Zhixing.
It was not shameful for a Great Grandmaster to kneel before a Transcendent expert!
Wang Zhixing was shocked.
