"However, the Xiao Clan certainly won't miss this opportunity to wipe out the Hun Clan. I only hope that when our clans go to all-out war, Brother Gu will keep his people in line and prevent them from stabbing us in the back!"
The Ancient Realm, Gu Yuan's residence.
Gu Yuan froze at Xiao Tian Ce's words, then nodded. "Rest assured. I'll keep my people in line."
Xiao Tian Ce nodded and smiled. "That would be best. Otherwise, don't blame me for showing no mercy, Brother Gu."
With that, Xiao Tian Ce's figure flickered, and he vanished without a trace.
"Hiss... Xiao Tian Ce really is becoming more formidable by the day. It's only been a few short years, yet he's improved again."
Gu Yuan swept the area with his senses but found no trace of Xiao Tian Ce, leaving him no choice but to marvel.
A moment later, Gu Dao and Gu Lie hurried over.
"Clan Chief!"
The two bowed respectfully.
"Dispense with the formalities. What brings you here?" Gu Yuan waved a hand and asked.
"We detected spatial fluctuations here just now, along with an exceptionally powerful presence. We thought you might have run into trouble, Clan Chief, so we rushed over," Gu Lie said gravely.
Seeing Gu Dao nod, Gu Yuan explained, "There was no danger. It was Xiao Tian Ce. He discussed a few things with me and left."
"Xiao Tian Ce? What did he come here for?" Gu Lie was puzzled, and a little angry as well.
Even Gu Lie, who normally feared neither heaven nor earth, felt uneasy about Xiao Tian Ce. Not only was the man powerful, but he was also exceptionally calculating.
Anyone dealing with him had to exercise the utmost caution, or they might fall into his trap without even realizing
