”The patriarch is one of the few Peak Fighter in Floating Cloud City. Even the mayor would have to be respectful to him if he saw me. Why do you suddenly want to see me, a lowly servant?”
Gu Feng, who had just finished cleaning up the library, followed the butler into the front courtyard.
”Wait here!”
Solitary summons?
Gu Feng was perturbed, but after hesitating for a moment, he was pushed by the main butler into the conference hall.
”Bam!”
The Darksteel Heavy Door closed tightly behind him.
Gu Feng's mind trembled.
After getting used to the dim light, he realized that there were only three people sitting in the conference hall.
Patriarch Chu Chengfang, eldest young master Chu Zhen, and a Battle Soul Academy envoy dressed in white robes.
”Could it be that my secret participation in the innate talent test was discovered?”

You lowly bastard, what is your intention for testing your innate talent behind your master's back? ”
A sinister chill spread throughout the meeting hall.
Gu Feng lowered his head and faced his in silence.
Just as Chu Chengfang had said, from the moment he was adopted by his foster father, he was destined to be a servant of the Chu Family like his foster father.
However, he would never be able to forget the miserable state in which his foster father was in when he was six years old, heavily injured by the pet beast of the Eldest Young Master Chu Zhen.
Even more so, he couldn't forget the three words that his foster father whispered beside his ear, tightly holding onto his hand while he was on the verge of death …
