"This girl actually dared to hang up on me?"
On the other side of the phone, Sheng Kuixuan's eyes flashed with anger as he looked at the hung-up call.
Just as Sheng Kuixuan was about to call back, his phone vibrated again, this time with an unfamiliar number.
"Hello."
Sheng Kuixuan casually answered the call.
"Young Master Sheng, it's been ten years since we last met, how is your health?"
A deep, strong voice came from the other end of the line.
"Who is this?"
"Zhao old brother?"
Hearing the old man's address, Sheng Kuixuan was momentarily confused. Given his age, who could address him as "old brother"?
But then, he remembered what Sheng Minglan had said before hanging up, and the name Zhao Qingzhi came to his mind.
If it was Zhao Qingzhi, then indeed, he had the right to call him "old brother," as Zhao Qingzhi was older and more capable than him.
"It seems Young Master Sheng remembers me."
"Do you know about Zhou Family's situation?"
Zhao Qingzhi asked with a smile.
"Of course, Zhao old brother, your granddaughter has caused quite a bit of trouble for my family's girl."
"Your granddaughter acts without restraint, but why did she go so far?"
"This time, even if Zhou Yan is healed, he will be paralyzed. He'll never be qualified to inherit Zhou Family."
"He is Zhou Hongyu's only son, and if Zhou Yan can't inherit, the next head of the Zhou family will have to come from another branch."
"The inheritance of one's bloodline being passed to someone else—do you think Zhou Hongyu won't go mad?"
"I've already contacted Minglan and told her to cut ties with your granddaughter. Only then can I protect my own girl."
Sheng Kuixuan said in a serious tone.
"Cut ties? Did your granddaughter agree to this?"
Zhao Qingzhi asked.
"No, that girl seems to have lost her mind. She actually said she's going to Tianhai City with your granddaughter, claiming there's a great opportunity waiting for her."
"She even said this opportunity could change both her fate and Sheng Family's fate."
"That's nonsense, right? Honestly, unless you, Zhao old brother, are going to give me all of Zhao Family's wealth, it's impossible for Sheng Family's situation to change."
"Is that even possible?"
Sheng Kuixuan responded.
"Zhao old brother, to be honest, if it weren't for your granddaughter being close friends with mine, and if you were just eyeing Zhao Family's assets, I would make you pay a heavy price to know what this opportunity is."
"But never mind, your granddaughter has good fortune, to be able to become best friends with mine."
"Your granddaughter is right. She is about to be introduced to an extraordinary person by my granddaughter, and this person can give her and your Sheng Family endless opportunities."
"Even if you combine all of Sheng Family's centuries-old foundation, it would still be nothing compared to this opportunity."
"Of course, I know you don't believe what I'm saying now."
"I want to meet with you. After we meet, I will show you something, and you will believe me."
"Then you'll understand what it means to have someone above you, and a world beyond this one."
Zhao Qingzhi said in a deep voice.
"Zhao old brother, now I want to see what kind of opportunity and blessing you're talking about."
"I'm currently in Chanyu. Where are you? I'll come see you now, and I want to know what kind of enchantment your granddaughter has put on mine."
Sheng Kuixuan's tone shifted as he spoke.
This was only because Zhao Qingzhi had spoken in such a way that he now wanted to meet him.
If it had been anyone else, he wouldn't have bothered.
What kind of opportunity could change Sheng Family's fate, as Zhao Qingzhi claimed? Was this all just nonsense?
But given Zhao Qingzhi's position, he couldn't simply dismiss him.
Especially when Zhao Qingzhi had said he would make him believe after their meeting.
"Isn't this a coincidence?"
"I'm also in Chanyu, preparing to visit the Wang Family, the top Martial Arts Aristocratic Family. Young Master Sheng, are you visiting Wang Family too?"
Zhao Qingzhi responded quickly after hearing Sheng Kuixuan.
"The Wang Family came to Sheng Family recently to propose a marriage, hoping to marry their offspring to my granddaughter. I'm here to discuss whether this marriage is feasible."
Sheng Kuixuan said.
"Your granddaughter? Which one?"
Zhao Qingzhi asked.
"I only have one granddaughter, who else could it be?"
Sheng Kuixuan replied.
"Then this marriage proposal is definitely not going to work. You should drop the idea as soon as possible."
"You should just tell me where you are now, and I'll come find you."
"After we meet, you'll understand just how high your granddaughter's future status is. The Wang Family won't just be able to marry her; they'll have to prove they're worthy of meeting her."
Zhao Qingzhi said.
"I'm at Tongming Villa District, Villa 3, Chanyu City."
Hearing Zhao Qingzhi's words, Sheng Kuixuan furrowed his brow. Though he didn't fully believe it, he figured it was better to be cautious than dismiss it entirely, so he told him his location.
"Wait for me, I'll be there in five minutes. I'm also in Tongming Villa District, at Villa 10, not far from you."
Zhao Qingzhi once again responded with impeccable timing.
"Alright, I'll be waiting for you, Zhao old brother."
Sheng Kuixuan said.
The phone call ended soon after.
"Servants, go to the entrance and welcome Old Master Zhao. When he arrives, bring him to see me immediately."
After hanging up the phone, Sheng Kuixuan instructed his servants.
"Yes, master."
The servant respectfully nodded and went outside to wait.
"Zhao Qingzhi, I'll see what you have to say."
After sending the servants to wait, Sheng Kuixuan thought deeply.
About five minutes later, footsteps were heard in the villa's reception hall.
An imposing old man was being escorted inside by a servant.
"Young Master Sheng."
The elderly man smiled and greeted Sheng Kuixuan when he entered the hall.
"Who are you?"
Sheng Kuixuan looked at the elderly man, deep in thought.
"What? You don't recognize me after our call?"
The elderly man smiled and said.
"You're Zhao old brother? Impossible. How can you be so young? Who are you really?"
Sheng Kuixuan asked in a deep voice.
"Please step down, I have matters to discuss with your family's head."
Zhao Qingzhi, after hearing Sheng Kuixuan's words, didn't answer immediately but turned to the servant guiding him.
"Is this?"
The servant didn't dare to respond, glancing at Sheng Kuixuan.
"Step down."
Sheng Kuixuan waved his hand.
Soon, the servant left, leaving Sheng Kuixuan and Zhao Qingzhi alone in the reception hall.
"Alright, no outsiders now."
"First, about my age. I've increased my lifespan and turned young again."
"The reason for my youth is the opportunity your granddaughter is about to encounter."
Zhao Qingzhi said, looking at Sheng Kuixuan after the servant left.
"Youth again? Is it some special Heaven and Earth Spiritual Herb?"
"Zhao old brother, you're not saying that the person your granddaughter is about to meet is someone who can offer these kinds of herbs, are you?"
Sheng Kuixuan frowned as he listened to Zhao Qingzhi's words.
"Heaven and Earth Spiritual Herb?"
"Do you think Heaven and Earth Spiritual Herbs can do such things?"
Zhao Qingzhi smiled as he looked at Sheng Kuixuan.
Then, he placed his hand on the table in front of Sheng Kuixuan.
"Break."
Zhao Qingzhi uttered a soft command, and instantly, his Purple Yang True Technique surged, releasing a terrifying internal force.
"Boom."
In an instant, the large table shattered into pieces, falling to the ground.
"How is this possible?"
Seeing the shattered table, Sheng Kuixuan's eyes widened in shock.
