Repugnant Gateway Chapter 161

The Gao Clan's position in the Great Yan Dynasty was very special. It was so special that if anything happened to the Gao Clan, it could affect ninety percent of the officials in the Yan Dynasty's imperial government.

Thus, the moment that An Zaihai had charged into the Gao Family's casino, he had already overturned Fang Bancheng.

Goldman Sachs Cooking was the most talented young generation of the Gao family. Although he was not as famous as Su Feihun and Feng Xiuzhi, it did not mean that he could not.

Mr Gao has always been low-key, as has Goldman Sachs.

In truth, from the very beginning of his cultivation, he had never been defeated.

More importantly, he had been raised as the future successor of the Gao Family.

But just one step short of that, Goldman broke the ice.

I was invincible.

But there was a struggle for peace.

He did not take that step because he was too worried.

He knew that he could not lose. Once he lost, he would lose his previously stable position in the Gao Family.

He was the future successor of the Gao Family, and he would carry the banner of the Gao Family in the future.

There were too many concerns, so he could not calm himself.

Do you have any concerns, any concerns?

Of course there was. However, there was also the determination to fight to the death if he were to make a move.

Goldman's cooking feet finally landed on the ground and didn't move.

Another carriage crushed the water and came from afar. The heavy rain hit the carriage, covering it with a layer of moisture.

The horse carriage was very ordinary. It looked no different from the carriages used in the big shops to send off the guests.

Of course, the only thing that makes no difference is the car.

It was not a horse, but an unnamed beast.

The beast pulling the carriage was as black as ink, its four hooves were like oxen, its head was as big as a fight, and its body was like a deer.

It was very big, at least half a meter taller than an ordinary warhorse, and its walking posture was rather lazy. It was as if it was disdainful towards everyone around it.

The head of this thing was similar to the head of the elk, except that the horns were not that big.

The breath that came out from the nostrils of this David's Deer was actually blue, looking like blue flames that gushed out one after another.

The horse carriage slowly came to a stop, and the surrounding large men of the Gao Family retreated to make way for it.

The curtain of the carriage was pushed aside by someone. A middle-aged man who looked very refined stepped out of the carriage and opened a black umbrella. The umbrella was embroidered with a word that looked like fire.

The middle-aged man slowly walked to the entrance of the casino and raised his umbrella. He looked at An Xuan who was sitting on a chair and nodded, ""Greetings Sect Master An.""

""Mr. Gao.""

The person who had come was the Gao Clan's head storekeeper, Gao Yuan, who openly spoke at Fang Bancheng. He was a big shot who caused people to feel fear when they heard that he was from Fang Bancheng's underworld.

Most of the Gao Family's businesses were casinos, but the parts that couldn't be seen were the foundation of the Gao Family.

Some had said that those people in Fang Gu City who thought they were black were actually inferior to even toddlers when compared to the Gao Family.

Gao Yuan waved his hand, and a trusted subordinate ran over at random. He placed a delicate looking wooden box by the door. It wasn't very big, only about a foot long.

Gao Yuan took a deep breath before bowing. ""On behalf of our Gao Family, I offer an apology to the Heavenly Awakening Clan, an apology to the little friend and your injured friend, and an apology to Sect Master An.""

He straightened. ""There's something I need to explain, even if you don't believe it.""

Even though the Gao Family was doing a lot of business, as long as their surname was Gao, they wouldn't commit such a despicable act like selling children.

This is not only my attitude, but also the attitude of the Gao Family.

The person you've already injured to the point of death is called Liu Weidong, the manager of our Gao Family's casino.

""I didn't expect him to be so crazy, so even if Sect Head An didn't intervene, I would still kill him.""

He pointed to the wooden box and said, ""There is a golden elixir inside that can help your friend recover.""

If Sect Head An is willing, our Gao Family can send someone to treat that friend.

If he could receive the broken arm again, his cultivation realm would also increase.

""Other than that, our Gao Family is willing to compensate you. As long as you open your mouth, I will not refuse.""

He stood up slowly and stretched his arms.

He walked to the door and squatted down to open the small box. Suddenly, a burst of golden light shot out from inside, and even the rain seemed to have dispersed.

Strands of golden light shot out in a straight line, causing everyone who saw this scene to be unable to remain calm in their hearts.

It was a Gold rank pill. It was a Gold rank pill that couldn't even be matched with the words ""city"".

An Zhan used two of his fingers to pick up the golden grade medicinal pill and then crushed it with a snap. He then casually sprinkled it into the puddle of water. ""I don't need you to give me these things.""

""I don't want any pills, nor any money.""

He tore up the silver notes in the small box and said firmly, ""Everyone involved in the sale of children, bring them to me.""

None of Liu Weidong's accomplices were missing.

Of course I believe that the Gao Family will not do such dirty things to earn money, and I also believe in the Gao Family's attitude.

But I intend to find out for myself. ""

Gao Yuan looked at the golden pill being crushed and scattered. His expression could not help but change, ""Sect Master An, this seems to be a bit too much.""

An Zeng dragged the chair back to the door. The friction between the legs of the chair and the ground was so ear-piercing.

He sat down wearily on the chair and replied in a flat tone, ""Mr. Gao, do you think I have gone over?""

So what does Mr. Gao think life will be like for families that have lost their children?

""If my brother can't find it, what will happen to me?""

Gao Yuan replied, ""The Gao Family will compensate those people.""

""Can those children who have been sold be brought back?"" he asked.

""If you can't get them back, then what's the use of paying compensation to those families?""

He pointed to the casino assistant who had run out to report the news and been brought back. ""Come here.""

The clerk was trembling with fear, but he dared not go.

Since the Gao Family were all here, he didn't even have the courage to escape.

Trembling, he walked up to the man, grabbed his hair, and punched the man in the throat.

The body had been lifted up and thrown out into the street, splashing the ground high with the rain.

""These are all your men I killed. They deserve to die, but their families deserve to die.""

You help me to pay the silver to their families, see if they will forgive me? ""

The corners of Gao Yuan's mouth twitched as he looked down at the banknotes in a daze.

""Your men deserve to die. I will kill them.""

But their families won't forgive me, and they'll do everything in their power to avenge me.

Do those kids deserve to die?

""Their parents won't be able to find their own children. If you send them some silver over, they'll treat your silver as their child?""

""This is the bottom line,"" said Anjou. ""It is mine, whether it is yours or not.

I don't need the Gao Family to give me an explanation for this matter, and I can't wait for your Gao Family to finish this matter.

I saw it myself. I finished it myself. ""

He pointed to himself. ""If the Gao Family thinks I've ruined your reputation, they can kill me at any time in the future.""

But today, I'm here.

Either those people are dead, or I'm dead. ""

Gao Yuan stood there in silence for a long time. He was so long that not even his umbrella could stop the rain from soaking his clothes.

An Zaiyue was not someone that he could not afford to offend, but An Zaiyue had pushed the Gao Clan into an extremely difficult and dangerous situation.

If this matter was not handled properly, the Gao Family's reputation would be tarnished.

A servant who was standing beside the carriage walked over quickly and whispered something into Gao Yuan's ear. Gao Yuan then turned around and left.

Not long after, another carriage came from the distance, followed by a group of dreaded field officers.

The carriage of the Infantry Division.

Gaoyuan Lake quickly walked to the side of the carriage and helped Chen Zaiyan out of it.

As the Minister of War, Chen Zaiyan had come to the Southern Wilderness, who was still engaged in a full-scale war with You Country.

Of course, An Zhan knew this was not because of his heavy weight, but because of the weight of the Gao Family.

Chen waved his hand to indicate that he did not need an umbrella. He strode through the rain to stand in front of An Zeng, gave him a look, and entered the room.

Chen turned around and closed the door after An Zai-yan entered.

""Don't you think it's enough?""

Chen asked.

An Zhe nodded, ""Not enough, fewer people died.""

Chen Zaiyan said, ""Then how about we have the Gao Family provide you later?""

""It's true that the Gao Clan made a mistake, but in the end, they couldn't force it. They didn't even have the chance to turn back.""

An Zhan shook his head, ""There's no room to turn back on this matter.""

Chen Zaiyan glared at An Zaiyue, ""The Gao Family has just taken the lead to donate one million silver taels for the war against You Country. How much of our warriors can they be saved by this one million silver taels?""

""Now that you've forced the Gao Clan into a corner, it won't do them any good at all.""

An Xuan said, ""These are two things. The amount of money the Gao Clan has donated to the Yan Clan has nothing to do with this matter.""

""It's important for the soldiers on the front lines to live or die, but if they knew the origins of this silver, they wouldn't dare to accept it.""

Chen said angrily, ""I'm very busy. I came to advise you because I think highly of you.

It could delay some of the urgent military intelligence because of your business. ""

An Xuan said, ""Sir, please return to the Infantry Division.""

Chen Zaiyan's expression changed abruptly, ""An Zaiyue, there are some things that you can't be too harsh on. … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … ….

You've already killed quite a few people, and the Gao Family has shown their sincerity.

To be honest, I really feel sorry for that gold rank pill.

If we sell it for money, we can exchange it for new clothes for our soldiers at the frontline.

""But now, you can't even take a single step back.""

An Zhan shook his head again. ""There are some things that you cannot take a single step back.""

Chen Zaiyan was speechless for a moment. After a moment of silence, he said, ""Your future is limitless. You should always consider it for yourself.""

""The students are short-sighted,"" said An Zaixian.

Chen Zaiyan waved his sleeves, ""Fight for peace!""

I'm not just thinking about you.

""Great Yan can't be in a state of unrest right now. You should also know that if anything happens to the Gao Family, many people will suffer as well.""

An Zaiyue pointed outside, ""So I guess, within a radius of a kilometer, the Gao Family has already cleared it, right?""

All the residents were taken away in the rain. All the streets were sealed off by experts of the Gao Family.

""Therefore, no matter what, this matter will not be announced.""

Chen Zaiyan nodded his head, ""You're right, this matter cannot be exposed.""

Not long after, someone would announce to the public that the Gao Family's casino had captured the spies of You Nation. Today's matters were all prepared for the capture of the spies of You Nation.

The citizens who were taken away for the time being will not doubt this matter, and it will soon be over. ""

Putting on a smile, he said with some decisiveness, ""That's why Sir thought that it was already pretty good for the Gao Family to plan on giving an explanation, right?""

However, this explanation was not meant for the people, nor for those who were watching from the shadows.

""It's mine!""

When he said the last four words, An Zhe's tone suddenly became sharp. ""Since it's about me, I'll have to do it myself.""

There can't be a single person less. If the Gao Clan doesn't bring all of those involved in this matter over today, then our Heavenly Awakening Sect will search for them ourselves.

To the Great Yan, to the Gao Clan, our Heavenly Awakening Sect is nothing.

""But no one in the Heavenly Enlightenment Sect will compromise. Even if they die, they will die in pursuit of justice.""

Chen Zaiyan fell silent again, even longer than before.

This was because he was certain that no matter what he said, he would no longer be able to persuade this student of his that he cared so much about.

But all of a sudden, he felt that the persistence of the struggle for peace was only a part, even a very important part, of what he cared about.

If a person had no obsession, he would never succeed.

He turned around and left without saying another word.

Walking to the door, Chen Zaiyan glanced at the distant lake guarding the door.

Gao Yuan lowered his head slightly. ""Sir, this matter was indeed the fault of the Gao Family.""

However, this matter cannot be disclosed, so in the end, we will give an explanation to Sect Head An.

""I'll find out how many people there are. I'll do whatever needs to be done with them.""

Chen Zaiyan swept his gaze over the large men with sabers, then asked Gao Yuan, ""Your Gao Family has a lot of people gathered here right now. Every one of them has a weapon in their hands.""

There was only one, and he was unarmed.

But have you ever thought about whether your people are more courageous and fearless than Anjou? ""

Gao Yuan's shoulders trembled slightly. ""What do you mean, sir?""

Chen Zaiyan said, ""As a disciple of the military academy and a member of the Ministry of War, I have the duty to tell him how to deal with this dispute.""

But I can't force him to do anything today, because I'm like you.

You have knives in your hands, but you have no confidence.

The rank of officer of the division is the knife in my hand, and it may be sharper than your visible knife.

""But I don't have the confidence to do so in the face of an insurrection.""

Chen walked into the rain, got into the carriage, and drove off.

Gao Yuan watched the carriage leave and then let out a long sigh at the sky.

He suddenly turned around and said, ""Send some people to investigate. I want one of them. Those who are involved in the sale of children, bring them to me.""

""Regardless of whether or not they are subordinates of the Gao Family, if you are unable to catch all of them before nightfall, I will make up for it with your numbers.""

The big men from the Gao Clan responded with a loud bang before turning around to leave. They were actually well-trained.

An Zhe sat back down on the chair and slowly loosened his clenched fists.

There were things about him that had nothing to do with him.

He glanced back at the frightened children, then smiled, trying to be gentle and kind.

Whether it was related or not, this was the bottom line, not to be touched.

No matter who.
