Chapter 420: The Joy of the Gong Family

Chapter 420: Chapter 420: The Joy of the Gong Family

Today, the Gong Family was extraordinarily lively.

Busy moving in and out, there were hundreds of clan members.

The entire Gong Family mansion was redecorated as if for a wedding.

Even the outside was carpeted with red.

It was clear that a distinguished guest was expected.

Today, the family’s ancestor, Gong Qiliang himself, had organized a banquet to welcome and cleanse the dust of travel from Fairy Xifeng.

At that moment, he stood outside the main entrance,

looking anxiously towards the distance.

He had already sent the family head, Gong Changjun, along with Gong Tianao and other core members of the Gong family, to personally receive her at the airport.

"Dad, your generation is not young anymore; there’s no need to lower your status to greet her. Why not wait inside instead, and let me keep watch here?"

Gong Changliang, standing by, watched his father’s excited expression with confusion.

Given his senior generation and his age,

was it necessary for him to wait outside?

"Nonsense, my generation might be high, but not higher than the five great Saints. They are the pillars of the martial world. In front of them, I am merely a small spark. Having the opportunity to meet a Saint is an honor for our Gong family," Gong Qiliang snapped back, giving his son a fierce look.

The title of the five great Saints was not something that little Jiangning could easily hold.

If they could connect with Fairy Xifeng,

the future of the Gong Family could be huge.

"Is it really that exaggerated?"

Gong Changliang still couldn’t believe it.

After all, many stories had faded over the years.

Nowadays, tales of the five great Saints were seldom heard in the martial world.

"Exaggerated? Do you really think this is ordinary neighborhood chatter? Fairy Xifeng’s reputation was thunderous forty years ago. As one of the first core members of the Martial Alliance, she alone eradicated more than ten strong sects in the southwest, killing thousands. With such a murderous god, do you think she isn’t worthy of my waiting here?"

Gong Qiliang’s words made Gong Changliang gasp.

To have thousands of lives on one’s hands and still live so long.

That was the real miracle.

"Are women nowadays all this fierce?"

"More than fierce, she’s like a killing god descending to earth. The current Seven Killings Alliance is actually led by her disciples. As long as she arrives, the affairs of the Shangguan family can be resolved, the lost face will be regained, and blocking the path, Lin Fan is undoubtedly doomed, especially since once Fairy Xifeng speaks up, even Medicine King Valley and the Xue Family can only bow their heads. This is the crushing power of absolute strength,"

Gong Qiliang clenched his fist.

The incident where Lin Fan had caused a huge disturbance at the wedding,

had indeed dishonored the Gong Family.

In these past days, members of the Gong family had been hanging their heads low whenever they went out.

This time, being able to invite such an unparalleled great master was naturally a supreme honor.

As the father and son were speaking,

a motorcade slowly approached from the distance, stopping at the entrance.

"Gong Family, Gong Qiliang greets Fairy Xifeng!"

Gong Qiliang quickly took a few steps and arrived at the bottom of the stairs.

He brought his hands together and deeply bowed toward the car.

Unexpectedly, the car door opened, and it was Gong Changjun, who had gone to fetch the guest.

Gong Qiliang stole a glance towards the backseat.

But he did not see Fairy Xifeng there.

Neither her disciple Master Miejue was among them.

Gong Changjun hurriedly explained: "Dad, Fairy Xifeng disliked that the car wasn’t luxurious enough and has already gone ahead to our home, didn’t you see her?"

"I... I’ve been standing at the door the whole time, but I didn’t see anyone arrive,"

this counter-question stunned Gong Qiliang.

He had been keeping watch at the main entrance and had not seen anyone arrive.

"That’s not possible; after all, at parting, she said she would be faster,"

Gong Changjun also didn’t expect the situation to turn out like this.

Just as everyone was puzzled and wondering where this mysterious Saint had gone.

Inside the house, a servant hurried out in a rush.

Panting, he said, "Ancestor... Master... Young Master, something terrible has happened—there are two people sitting in the dining room."

"They’ve entered the house!"

Hearing this, Gong Changjun also couldn’t help but gasp in shock.

After Lin Fan had disrupted the wedding banquet before, many additional security measures had been implemented at home.

Yet, no one had noticed two living people casually appearing in the dining room.

With such skill, they truly moved like the wind.

"Quick, follow me to meet Ancestor Xifeng."

After Gong Qiliang said this, he strode towards the inner hall.

The other key descendants, naturally, could not delay either.

More than twenty people hurriedly surged into the dining room.

At that moment, two nuns in religious robes were sitting there.

They watched with smiles the Gong Family members rushing in.

"Gong Qiliang of the Gong Family, greets Fairy Xifeng."

Gong Qiliang looked at the woman sitting there, who appeared even younger than Master Miejue.

He hurriedly stepped forward and bowed deeply.

The rest of the Gong Family members also quickly knelt down in succession.

"Gong Qiliang, you have aged quite a lot since you were a child."

Fairy Xifeng, appearing to be only in her early thirties, smiled.

Her demeanor was even more approachable than that of her disciple.

But her tone of speech carried an air of superiority.

"I am but a mere mortal, how can I possibly compare to the Ancestor’s everlasting youth?"

Gong Qiliang awkwardly laughed, "Although I had the fortune to meet the Ancestor in my childhood, that was decades ago. I never imagined the Ancestor’s majesty would remain unchanged. Now I truly understand what is meant by a true immortal descending to the mundane world."

It must be said that Fairy Xifeng’s beauty really could not be associated with her age of over a hundred.

If she were to shed that grey robe, anyone would think she was a stunning young woman.

"Alright, there’s no need for more flattery. I am here to deal with the incident where my disciple Master Miejue fell in Jiangning. I’ve heard her disciple was enticed to break off an engagement, which is a grave betrayal of our founder. Thus, I must give your Gong Family an explanation, as well as one to the entire world."

Fairy Xifeng’s expression suddenly turned stern.

Though she no longer walked the martial paths, her disciple was her face.

Having taught a disciple as concerned about face as Master Miejue,

she was naturally someone who would not tolerate a speck of dust in her eyes.

"May I ask... Fairy, how shall we deal with Shangguan Min Yue?"

Gong Qiliang asked in a low voice.

But before Fairy Xifeng could speak,

Master Miejue already roared with clenched teeth, "Those who betray our sect deserve the severest of punishments—no mercy, no intact corpse!"

At these words, the faces of all the Gong Family members changed.

Especially Gong Tianao, who looked frantically at his father.

Shangguan Min Yue was essential for his advancement as a Martial Artist.

If she were to die, wouldn’t that end his chances?

"Fairy above... I boldly beg a favor..."

Gong Qiliang naturally could not allow Shangguan Min Yue to die, given her significant value.

But he dared not insist on keeping her.

"What is it?"

Fairy Xifeng asked coldly.

"Shangguan Min Yue and my Gong Family have a prior marriage engagement... Although she fled the sect, I believe she was misled by a villain. While she must be punished, after all, my Gong Family is known for keeping promises... May I beg the Saint to show leniency, allow her to marry my grandson and subsequently pursue her crimes? Even if she cannot escape the death penalty, she could still receive blessings from the Gong Family lineage in the future, proving our loyalty."

Gong Qiliang looked at Fairy Xifeng with some concern.

People with high martial skills often had strange tempers,

and he feared that a single word might anger her.

"The Gong Family does have some integrity. Then I grant you one night as husband and wife. Send a message to the Shangguan Family immediately, letting them send Shangguan Min Yue over tonight; otherwise, not a single person or animal from the Shangguan Family shall be spared!"

Fairy Xifeng narrowed her eyes.

She did not have much patience.
