Chapter 854 I Get It

Gao Ge’s question sends Xia Shengtang into silence.

Gao Ge doesn’t urge him to give any reply. Instead, he lights up a cigarette and turns to look at the scene out of the window.

After a cigarette is finished, Xia Shengtang finally speaks.

“Actually, what I want to do has little to do with you. And what you need to do is take good care of my sister,” Xia Shengtang says.

Gao Ge takes a look at him and laughs.

“Xia Lu is my girlfriend and my future wife. Of course I will take good care of her. This is my responsibility. I must fulfill it. However, as her brother, you also need to perform the responsibility of a brother. I’m not saying that you must look after her. Instead, she and I both hope that you can stay safe. I think at least you should let her know what you are doing.”

Xia Shengtang smiles bitterly.

“It seems that it is impossible to gain the answer from you,” Gao Ge says.

“It’s not that I don’t want to tell you but that I cannot.” Xia Shengtang’s eyes sparkle.

Hearing that, Gao Ge is confused.

“For example, if you are going to do a very dangerous thing now and you may get yourself killed anytime, will you tell my sister about it?” Xia Shengtang’s eyes turn red and then he stares at Gao Ge.

Gao Ge ponders for a while and doesn’t answer.

Xia Shengtang smiles bitterly and says, “Look. Actually, you also understand it. If such a thing happens to you, you will not tell her about it. You will be worried about whether they will get involved. What if they encounter any danger?”

Gao Ge coughs.

What Xia Shengtang means by “they” is quite meaningful...

“Anyway, you don’t need to ask about this matter. Actually, it is not a big deal. I’m looking for one thing. It is not for myself but for my master. Apart from that, I cannot tell you anything more. Is it enough?” Xia Shengtang asks.

Gao Ge nods.

What Xia Shengtang said kind of gives him a reminder.

If he were Xia Shengtang, he might not be willing to reveal too much.

After being silent for a while, Gao Ge suddenly says.

“If you need my help, just tell me.”

“Tell you?” Xia Shengtang is dazed to hear that.

“Yeah. I’m your brother-in-law. Why don’t you use me if necessary?” Gao Ge grins and says.

Xia Shengtang is obviously taken aback for a while and then smiles at Gao Ge.

At the moment, Gao Ge’s phone suddenly rings.

He takes up the phone to glance at the Caller ID and instantly gets spirited. Then, he puts it through quickly and puts the caller on speaker.

“Lord Horn Dragon.”

“Got it.” Horn Dragon’s voice comes from the other side of the phone.

Although Gao Ge and Horn Dragon haven’t met many times by now, Horn Dragon is rather straightforward and just says what he wants to say. Hence, he doesn’t waste time in exchanging pleasantries with Gao Ge but directly tells Gao Ge the information he has acquired, “Yue Xincheng disappears in Zi’erduo City. Someone saw him contact with the Jin Family.”

“The Jin Family?” Gao Ge takes a look at Xia Shengtang.

Xia Shengtang aside frowns but he still nods to show that he has known it.

“Yeah, the Jin Family. If you find the Jin Family, maybe you can find him. If you need my help, just call me at once,” Horn Dragon says.

“Okay.” It can tell that Horn Dragon has made quite some effort to deal with this matter. Although he hasn’t let Yue Xincheng call him master by now, in his heart, he does regard Yue Xincheng as his disciple.

Judging from Horn Dragon’s tone of talking, Gao Ge can feel that Horn Dragon is concerned and nervous about Yue Xincheng.

After hanging up the phone, Gao Ge glimpses Xia Shengtang and says, “Judging from your facial expression, the Jin Family is not easy to deal with?”

“Actually, it is not difficult to deal with the Jin Family. Well, they are just too unpredictable.”

“Oh?” Gao Ge is a bit dazed.

“The Jin Family is a local ancient martial arts family. It is not a very strong family. There is nothing special about the Jin Family but a master at the realm of Master and two masters at the realm of Strength Exposure. Yet, the Jin Family is ill-reputed in the field of immortal cultivation,” Xia Shengtang says. Evidently, he is really familiar with the Western Border Region.

“Why ill-reputed?” Gao Ge asks.

“Because they never abide by rules,” Xia Shengtang says coldly, “There are rules in the secular world and there are rules in the field of immortal cultivation too. However, the Jin Family members have never followed any rules. They just do whatever they want to do, which irritates many people.”

Gao Ge is a bit shocked.

“In this case, how can they survive up to now?” Gao Ge asks.

Such an annoying ancient martial arts family still can remain up to now, which is somewhat unbelievable indeed.

After all, according to Xia Shengtang, there should be many people disliking the Jin Family.

“Actually, there is a reason for that. The Jin Family is really nothing but somehow, the family has got some backing,” Xia Shengtang says with a smile.

“Oh?”

“It is a cultivation school of the blessed spots. It is said that there is a man of the old generation of the Jin Family. That man is highly capable. He has entered some cultivation school of the blessed spots and reached the realm of Grand Master. He is enough to protect a family,” Xia Shengtang says.

Gao Ge takes a tumble.

“Which blessed spot?” Gao Ge asks curiously.

“Joyoung Sect.”

Gao Ge gives a surprised look.

Xia Shengtang is a bit confused, “You’ve heard of it?”

Gao Ge looks stern and nods.

“It is so strange. Even I have never met anyone of the Joyoung Sect and you did?” Xia Shengtang says with a smile, “You look so astounded. Did it take you by surprise?”

Gao Ge heaves a sigh and says in a deep voice, “I thought Joyoung was a brand of soybean milk maker only. Unexpectedly, it is also a cultivation school of the blessed spot.”

Xia Shengtang is so perplexed.

Gao Ge laughs, “I was kidding. I was kidding. Well, what do you know about the Joyoung Sect?”

“Not much. I only know that the sovereign of the Joyoung Sect is Lyu Chen but he has been in the closed-door training for ten years. Ten years ago, he was at the realm of Grand Master. I’m afraid that when his training is over, he will be at the realm of Ancient Martial Arts Natural State. Apart from that, the Joyoung Sect has two guardians–Left Guardian and Right Guardian. Below them, there are four special envoys. And one of the Jin Family members serves as Left Guardian of the Joyoung Sect.”

Gao Ge strokes his chin, “That’s to say, the Jin Family is almost second only to one person in the Joyoung Sect?”

“No. To be specific, they get to decide everything. As I said, their sovereign has been in the training for ten years,” Xia Shengtang says, “So, you must think it through. If you set against the Jin Family, you will be setting against the Joyoung Sect. They won’t let you go.”

Gao Ge bursts out laughing.

With his eyes narrowed, Xia Shengtang stays quiet for three seconds and then nods.

“I get it.”
