Chapter 863 - 861: Shaking Yanjing (Update 58)
Wu Kun’s face had become extremely grave for a moment, his eyes flickering with light.
"I never expected an outcast from the Xiao Family to not only kill my grandson, but also cripple my son, and now he has caused such tremendous loss to my Wu Family, could this really be heaven’s punishment on my Wu Family?" he said with an ugly expression, letting out a deep sigh, appearing much older.
Beijing, home to a residence filled with ancient garden features and emanating a refined scholarly aura, was where the Gu Family, one of the Eight Great Families of Beijing, resided.
Originally a family steeped in literary tradition, the Gu Family rose to prominence as one of the Eight Great Families in Beijing after Old Master Gu became the minister of the Ministry of Culture of China.
And now, Gu Qingyun, the son of Old Master Gu and the Patriarch of the Gu Family, was even the Mayor of Beijing holding high authority, solidifying the Gu Family’s status as a force that others dared not provoke.
In the living room of the Gu Family, Old Master Gu, with white hair and a face full of wrinkles, sat on a sofa, beside him sat Gu Qingyun.
"Father, our Gu Family has taken a significant fall this time, suffering huge losses," Gu Qingyun spoke gravely.
"This outcast expelled from the Xiao Clan, what has he experienced over these years to become so formidable? No wonder he dared to kill Young Master Wu, he must indeed be backed by solid power. With the Wu Family suffering such a great loss, it can be said to be bone-crushing, and moreover, a huge blow to their prestige," Old Master Gu murmured with narrowed eyes.
"This kid must have joined some Sect in the Martial Arts World, or he wouldn’t be possessing such terrifying strength," Gu Qingyun commented indifferently.
"Father, Grandpa, what are you two discussing?" A crisp voice rang out as a figure in white walked in, her exquisite features otherworldly, radiating an ethereal beauty—none other than the Gu Family’s Miss Gu Qingcheng.
