Huaxia Country is vast with a large population, even today as Daoist arts decline and the powerful are rare, the Qi n circle is still very significant.
This is just like martial arts today, although it is gradually fading and real masters are few and far between, there are still many who practice martial arts.
Ge Dongxu, aside from having a registration at the Special Ability Managent Bureau and so interactions with people like Fan Hong from the Bureau, and a brief appearance in Zhan Yuan Mountain because of the iron-clad zombie incident, this counted as his first ti really showing his face in the Qi n circle. Therefore, in such a large circle like Qi n, Ge Dongxu could only be considered an obscure figure with hardly any fa.
Thus his arrival did not cause a sensation, and the organizer of the conference did not greet him grandly or invite him to participate in exchanges on stage.
However, both Lv Xinghai and Zhu Dongyu, one because he had witnessed his terrifying power and knew of his status as a director-level consultant at the Special Ability Managent Bureau, and the other because Ge Dongxu was a junior brother of Yang Yinhou, a respected predecessor in Qi n, had made a special effort to visit him early in the morning to inquire whether he had any intention of sharing his insights on stage.
Ge Dongxu just wanted to see the event and naturally had no intention of going on stage to share, so he declined with a smile and also told them that he was still young and liked to stick with people like Lv Chongliang, asking them not to go out of their way to introduce and take care of him, so as to avoid the discomfort of having to sit up front.
Lv Xinghai, because of the Zhan Yuan Mountain incident, had been given strict orders by Fan Hong and knew that Ge Dongxu did not wish to make a na for himself and have a high-profile appearance in Qi n, so seeing that he declined, he did not dare to insist. Zhu Dongyu, although out of respect for Yang Yinhou, recognized Ge Dongxu as a predecessor, still ultimately found him too young and was sowhat doubtful of his ability, so naturally, he did not press the matter when Ge Dongxu declined.
"By the way, when will Elder Yang arrive? I would also like to go and welco him," Zhu Dongyu shifted the topic at the right mont.
"My senior brother set off by car early in the morning and should be able to arrive around ten in the morning. He has grown accustod to a quiet life, and there's no need for a big fuss," Ge Dongxu replied.
"I understand, Elder Yang is a hermit of the world, and everything will be decided by him personally when we et him," Zhu Dongyu said seriously.
In the Qi n world, revered elders like Yang Yinhou, the Grand Elder of Santai Sect, are true hermits, and they rarely concern themselves with worldly affairs anymore. For instance, the Grand Elder of the host Santai Sect did not appear in this provincial exchange eting, so Yang Yinhou did not intend to attend it initially. A great reason for his visit this ti was because of Ge Dongxu, so before Yang Yinhou gave specific instructions, Zhu Dongyu naturally did not dare to take initiative.
Ge Dongxu nodded and smiled, and after a brief exchange of pleasantries, Zhu Dongyu and Lv Xinghai took their leave.
Not long after Zhu Dongyu and Lv Xinghai left, people like Lv Semi-Immortal ca looking for him.
"A true elder indeed, living alone in a stand-alone villa by the lake! Enviable!"
Seeing Ge Dongxu living alone in a stand-alone lakeside villa made people like Lv Semi-Immortal quite envious and sentintal.
Many from the Qi n ca to attend the exchange eting, and though so might not have higher cultivation than these young people, they held positions of so status in society, and naturally, the hosts wouldn't dare neglect them in their accommodations. As such, in an expansive hotel, stand-alone lakeside villas were in extrely high demand and there was no way these younger ones could get one, let alone occupy a villa all by themselves.
"Heh, look at how envious you all are, don't tell you haven't stayed in a stand-alone villa before!" Ge Dongxu laughed.
"Of course, we've stayed in them, but having a lakeside stand-alone villa at this kind of event is a symbol of status. It's different from when we just spend money to stay in one," Lv Semi-Immortal said.
"For , it's pretty much the sa," Ge Dongxu laughed.
"That's because you can afford it!" Lv Semi-Immortal shot Ge Dongxu a glance and retorted.
"Haha!" Seeing Lv Semi-Immortal's sour expression, Ge Dongxu couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Lv Semi-Immortal also intentionally put on a sour look, but in fact, he was truly happy that his boss was so aweso. He felt honored and proud, so seeing Ge Dongxu laugh heartily, he joined in with laughter.
The rest were no exception.
"By the way, Senior. After we ca back last night, we specifically went to check out the golf course area and found that both Su Jieliang and Yan Chengzhi were gone. Could it be that your prohibitions failed after so ti, or have they already broken free?" After laughing for a while, Liu Hong asked.
Everyone perked up their ears imdiately upon hearing this.
They were all very concerned about this matter.
"They couldn't have broken my prohibitions; they went against my instructions and had soone move them back," Ge Dongxu said indifferently, his gaze turning sowhat cold.
"Are you sure? Could it be that Su Jieliang's father took matters into his own hands?" Lv Semi-Immortal said.
"Yeah, Sect Master Su is still very formidable," Liu Hong and the others chid in with nods.
"That would be in vain," Ge Dongxu stated, his voice filled with imnse confidence.
He was a Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer expert—how could his prohibitions be broken by a re Fourth Layer of Qi Cultivation magician?
Lv Semi-Immortal and the others looked at Ge Dongxu for a long ti before saying, "We will find out at the exchange eting later. If Su Jieliang and the others have had their prohibitions lifted, they will definitely attend."
Ge Dongxu gave a noncommittal and faint smile.
"Senior, if Su Jieliang's prohibitions haven't been lifted yet, what do you plan to do next?" Seeing Ge Dongxu's noncommittal expression, which clearly showed overwhelming confidence, Chi Longwu felt a twinge of apprehension and cautiously asked.
"What do you think?" Ge Dongxu asked back lightly.
"No way, Senior, are you really planning to double the punishnt? Su Jieliang is the Young Sect Master of Santai Sect, isn't he?" Lv Semi-Immortal and the others couldn't help but be stunned.
"So what you're saying is just because Su Jieliang is the Young Sect Master of Santai Sect, he should be allowed to attack at will? I have my own status too!" Ge Dongxu said.
Hearing this, Lv Semi-Immortal and the rest had a feeling of being torn between laughter and tears.
Although they all unanimously acknowledged that Ge Dongxu was very powerful and out of respect for their elders referred to him as a senior, since he was about the sa age as them and they had got along quite casually and harmoniously, they were still in the habit of seeing him as soone similar to themselves, at most just a bit more aweso.
But now, this last statent from Ge Dongxu was clearly not to be taken lightly! He was seriously considering himself to be a big shot, a senior!
"Alright, stop looking at like that, let's go eat. The eting is going to officially start soon," Ge Dongxu said, understanding the thoughts of Lv Semi-Immortal and the others, but he didn't specifically explain, choosing instead to say it with a smile.
Everyone was well aware that Ge Dongxu had so real skills, and with the presence of the two seniors, Zhu Dongyu and Lv Xinghai, even if sothing really happened, it wouldn't be too serious. They nodded and left the villa while chatting and laughing on their way to the restaurant to eat.
