Chapter 169 - Driven to Jiangnan City?

Chapter 169 Driven to Jiangnan City?

Gao Ge is wondering whether he will be able to take down the common cultivators with the Strength Protection realm if he also reaches the realm of Strength Protection one day.

Thinking of that, he becomes a bit excited.

When Guo An learns that Gao Ge is only at the realm of Qi Practicing, he and the men standing behind him are struck dumb.

“How is it possible?” A relatively young man says, “If you are only at the realm of Qi Practicing, how could you defeat Guo An?”

Guo An says with a grimace, “Why the fuss? This young fellow is gifted and strong with exquisite martial arts skills. As a cultivator at the realm of Qi Practicing, he can defeat the one at the realm of Strength Protection like me, which only indicates that he is more capable. Why isn’t it possible? It’s nothing to be so surprised at all.”

Having been scolded by Guo An, the man can only lower his head.

Then Gao Ge asks again, “Mr. Guo, how many years have you been in Jiangnan City?”

Guo An laughs, saying, “We are actually new here. We have stayed here for only two months.”

Gao Ge takes a tumble. No wonder he didn’t hear of the Treading Heaven Martial Arts Club in Jiangnan City before.

Right then, Guo Liang walks into the room.

He comes to Guo An’s front and lowers his head, telling him what he has learnt about the incident.

Guo Liang is also quite smart. Being aware that the relationship between his father and Gao Ge has been eased, he emphasizes the rudeness of Fei Yang deliberately while telling the story.

After hearing out Guo Liang’s description, Guo An flies into a rage as expected. He slaps on the table and says with a stern face, “How can we have such ill-intended people in our martial arts club? It looks like we must be more cautious about recruiting students. Guo Liang, I will leave this matter and Liu to you. Don’t disappoint me!”

“Yes, Dad…”

After Guo Liang leaves the room, Guo An looks at Gao Ge and asks in confusion, “Young fellow, are you really expelled by the Cultivation Academy?”

Gao Ge nods his head.

“Hum. It seems that the Cultivation Academy is nothing more than this. How can they expel a talent like you?” Guo An instantly expresses his disdain of the Cultivation Academy. It may be because he is always contemptuous of the Cultivation Academy or because he is pretending to show kindness for Gao Ge purposefully. The reason is actually unimportant.

Gao Ge says with a smile, “My capability is not a big deal in the Academy. There are many people more capable than me.”

Guo An is struck dumb with amazement, “Is the Cultivation Academy really so powerful?”

Gao Ge nods his head.

Actually, what he said is quite right.

There are many capable people in the Cultivation Academy, except that those people are the teachers.

Guo An heaves a sigh, saying, “No wonder the Dragon Court is so powerful. They have taken in all the talents in the cultivation world of Huaxia. The students are the fresh blood of the cultivation world! Even I hope to send Guo Liang into the Cultivation Academy one day, let alone others…”

Gao Ge believes that Guo An really means what he says.

Guo An asks further, “Since so, how did you get expelled by the Cultivation Academy?”

Hearing the question, Gao Ming also darts a gaze at Gao Ge.

He has asked his son about this by now. In fact, he also wants to know the answer to it.

Gao Ge breathes deeply. Instead of answering the question at once, he falls into thought.

Eventually, he says peacefully, “I killed someone.”

“You killed someone?” Guo An is a bit confused.

Yet, Gao Ming is rather astonished.

Gao Ming stares at his son in astonishment. At the moment, Gao Ge cannot attend to his father’s feelings anymore. He nods his head at Guo An, “I killed a student of the Cultivation Academy.”

“I see.” Guo An felt outraged by Gao Ge’s expulsion from the Cultivation Academy but now, he thinks that Gao Ge is so lucky to be alive, “As far as I know, if a student kills his schoolmate, he will be sentenced to death.”

Gao Ge gives a smile and nods his head.

Guo An seems to have quite some knowledge about the Cultivation Academy.

Then Guo An asks, “Why did you kill the guy? It is too irrational.”

It is great luck to be enrolled by the Cultivation Academy. He cannot understand why Gao Ge was so irrational to give up such a precious opportunity.

Gao Ge laughs, saying, “Of course I have a reason why I must kill him. Men cannot consider so many things that they even don’t dare to draw his sword at the one they want to kill.”

After hearing Gao Ge out, Guo An doesn’t respond immediately. He falls into silence instead.

After a while of silence, Guo An bursts out laughing, “You are right! Men cannot take too many things into consideration and must show no mercy for those who deserve to be killed. Young fellow, you have taught me a good lesson!”

Looking at the relieved look of Guo An, Gao Ge feels rather puzzled.

He doesn’t know what Guo An is thinking about. Neither does he know what problem he has helped Guo An solve.

The men standing behind Guo An also take a tumble.

“Mr. Guo, didn’t the Yue Family and Zhao Family come to make trouble for you on your arrival?” Gao Ge asks curiously.

Guo An thinks about it and says, “Are you talking about the two ancient martial arts families? They did come to make trouble for us but they were driven away by me.”

Gao Ge laughs. Undoubtedly, Jiangnan City is the territory of the Yue Family and Zhao Family. Now that these cultivators arrive in this place, if he were one of the Zhao Family or Yue Family, he would surely do something about that. However, Guo An is a cultivator with the realm of Strength Protection and his buddies must be quite capable. The Zhao Family and Yue Family want to get them out of here, it is not an easy job.

No wonder Yue Tuzhi was so anxious to ask Gao Ge to join the Yue Family. He must want to use Gao Ge to cope with the Treading Heaven Martial Arts Club.

Of course, it is only Gao Ge’s conjecture, not the truth.

“Mr. Guo, where are you from?” Gao Ge asks.

After asking that, Gao Ge finds that Guo An and his men all change their facial expression and yet keep silent.

Gao Ge notices that a bit of sheer pain crosses their eyes.

It seems that the reason why they came to Jiangnan City is a miserable memory for them.

They don’t say anything. Neither does Gao Ge.

After a long while, Guo An heaves a long sigh.

“Fine. Since you talk with us without reserve and speak from the bottom of your heart, how can we hide something from you?” Guo An says with a bitter smile, “To be honest, we were driven to Jiangnan City.”

Gao Ge feels surprised and asks, “Driven to Jiangnan City?”

Guo An nods his head and falls into silence again.

The several buddies behind him also have red eyes.

They look so grieved.

Gao Ge deeply regrets what he has asked.
