Recently, a piece of news has been circulating in the Imperial City!

That is, the Gao Family has experienced significant changes, the Family Head Gao Hongfu and the three major Elders died violently, and the Family Head has been replaced!

Initially, upon hearing this news, everyone thought it was false and completely impossible!

However, upon investigation, it was discovered that the news was indeed true!

Thus, curiosity drove some people to start probing into the inside story, but the core members of the Gao Family seemed to be very secretive, not willing to say much!

But one thing is certain, the Gao Family has fallen, now estimated to be about the same as a lower-class family!

As for the Leng Family, because of the previous incident, they naturally paid great attention to the movements of the Gao Family!

When Leng Mingqi heard and confirmed this matter, he was completely stunned!

Immediately, they thought of that young man—Su Chen!

Could this matter be related to him?

But as the thought flashed, he completely dispelled it!

Logically speaking, that young man is indeed very likely, but there is one major problem!

Does he have that strength?

To know, the First Elder and Second Elder of the Gao Family are both experts above the Eighth Turn Divine Sea Realm, and the Family Head Gao Hongfu is even at the Ninth Turn!

Don't be fooled by his Seventh Turn Divine Sea Realm, which is only two turns short of Gao Hongfu, but even ten or more of himself added together could not be a match for Gao Hongfu!

The difference of one turn is a vast world, it's not just an empty phrase!

That young man couldn't possibly be monstrous to that degree!

Not only him, Leng Ning also similarly finds it hard to believe!

...

Su Chen naturally didn't know about some things happening outside, nor would he care!

On this morning, suddenly the sound of footsteps echoed in his courtyard!

"Su Chen! Su Chen!"

A voice akin to a yellow spirit sounded!

"You're here quite early!"

Su Chen came out from the room and laughed, and the visitor was, of course, Nangong Xi!

"Still early! By now, quite a few people have probably arrived!"

Nangong Xi pouted her lips.

"Okay, let's also go then."

Su Chen smiled and then walked out of the inn together with Nangong Xi.

...

"By the way, Xi Xi, did you do something about the Chu Family?"

On the way, Su Chen asked casually.

To Su Chen, the Chu Family having no action for so long seemed quite unusual!

Though the Imperial City is large, with more people, since the Gao Family could find here, the Chu Family had no reason not to, especially after such a long time!

Thinking briefly, the most likely scenario was related to the little girl beside him!

"Yes, after I went back, I told my family, and then they sent someone to the Chu Family."

Nangong Xi said:

"On that day, the Chu Family Head came with Chu Yuan to beg for forgiveness, and also broke one arm and disabled his Dantian!"

"In the end, I saw he was quite pitiful, so I forgave him. Of course, I warned them not to trouble you!"

Upon hearing this, Su Chen was somewhat shocked!

Unexpectedly, Nangong Xi's family had such great influence, that they made the Chu Family Head bring Chu Yuan to beg for forgiveness on the same day after knowing the situation!

Moreover, directly disabling Chu Yuan's arm and Dantian, which for the average Martial Artist, once the Dantian is disabled, it is practically equivalent to being a cripple!

After all, not everyone can reshape the Dantian like Su Chen!

To know, Chu Yuan's talent is not bad, a key cultivated target of the Chu Family!

But even so, the Chu Family Head did so without hesitation!

This can only indicate one problem, that the Chu Family is truly afraid!

For a moderately sized family to be so terrified, this also demonstrates the foundation and power of the Nangong Clan!

"Su Chen, you won't blame me for acting on my own, will you?"

Nangong Xi looked at Su Chen with some apprehension!

Honestly, Nangong Xi didn't know why she cared so much about Su Chen's attitude.

Su Chen smiled upon hearing:

"How could I, I should thank you instead!"

Indeed, though he's not afraid of the Chu Family, it would be quite troublesome, so if the trouble can be minimized, it is naturally good!

After all, with that time, he would rather spend it cultivating or researching something!

He could also see that this little girl meant well!

"That's good!"

Upon hearing Su Chen's words, a smile returned to Nangong Xi's face!

Actually, for Nangong Xi, the incident at the Blood Prison Arena was somewhat hard to bring up, but she was worried the Chu Family would retaliate against Su Chen, whom she feared couldn't handle it, so she told her family!

...

After walking a while, the two arrived at the Purple Gold Auction House!

Upon seeing this auction house, Su Chen took a deep breath!

It was truly extravagant!

This auction house not only occupies a vast area, but just its appearance alone is stacked with innumerable precious materials! 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

At this point, at the entrance of the auction house, people were coming and going!

Not too many, but certainly not few!

Of course, each person's temperament and cultivation are extraordinary!

Su Chen couldn't help but wonder:

"Wasn't it said that the auction in the Imperial City is attended only by top-tier families and high-level families? Why are there so many people?"

Actually, it's not the auction's limitation, but other forces in the Imperial City know that even if they go, they can't compete with those families, merely as spectators!

Gradually, most of them stopped going for the excitement!

"Yes, but the Imperial City is so big, there are seven or eight top-tier families, more than thirty high-level families!"

Nangong Xi explained:

"Moreover, aside from the Imperial City, other terrifying forces have come, some of which even high-level families and top-tier families in the Imperial City don't wish to provoke easily!"

"In addition to that, some extremely powerful loose cultivators will also come!"

Upon hearing this, Su Chen suddenly understood!

Indeed, more than thirty high-level families and seven or eight top-tier families sound like a lot, but compared to the vast population of the Imperial City, it's negligible!

Although the foundation and strength of the Imperial City are the strongest in the Great Yan Empire, the Great Yan Empire has vast territory, surpassing hundreds of Shenfeng Dynasties, other places have some super forces, which is quite normal!

Due to this, it's understandable that so many people are appearing here!

After all, the Purple Gold Auction House is renowned for the extraordinary items it offers!

No matter how many people come, it has no impact on Su Chen, as this is an auction, where wealth competes against each other!

And now he has as much as twenty million Spirit Stones at his disposal!

"Clack, clack, clack!"

At this moment, suddenly a heavy footstep sound echoed, the ground seemed to have a slight tremor!
