Chapter 64: Rebirth as the Great Villain (2)
The Third Elder of the Gu Clan held absolute authority over the clan's punishments and penalties—his power so immense that most people avoided crossing his path. Yet in front of Su Chen, he was simply a doting grandfather. A plate of Su Chen's favorite pastries sat neatly arranged before him.
"You've come, Chen'er," Gu Yixian said warmly.
He was extremely pleased with this grandson, whose temperament resembled his own the most. Ever since Su Chen's parents perished while exploring a secret realm, there was nothing Gu Yixian wouldn't do for him—even if Su Chen asked for the stars in the sky, he would find a way to pluck them down.
Su Chen casually picked up a piece of pastry and praised, "Grandfather's Seven-Colored Immortal Bean Cake is still the best."
Gu Yixian's smile deepened, his eyes overflowing with affection. Su Chen devoured several pieces in quick bites. A warm current immediately flowed through his abdomen. Every ingredient in these pastries was a rare and precious treasure. They truly were delicious.
But Su Chen hadn't come just to eat. He looked at Gu Yixian and said directly, "Grandfather, I need you to take action once. There's someone I want dealt with."
He had no intention of letting Lin Zhan slowly level up until he became a towering final boss standing in his way. He would summon Gu Yixian himself—this Nirvana Realm Venerable—to handle it. Of course, having a Nirvana Realm expert personally act against a junior who hadn't even reached the peak of the Spirit Soul Realm would invite ridicule. But the request came from Su Chen.
Gu Yixian's expression turned serious. "Chen'er, who have you offended?"
Su Chen recounted the entire matter involving Lin Zhan, then continued, "Grandfather, I want whatever great fortune is on him. For a minor clan's son to grow so rapidly in just two years—it can't be ordinary. He might possess some enormous opportunity, or perhaps an ancient monster stands behind him. Either way, I need your help to ensure nothing goes wrong."
