Supreme Sword Sovereign-Chapter 58 – Attend the banquet and overthrow Liu Tong!
Gu Han?
Following her gaze, everyone soon spotted Gu Han and his group not far away.
The hall, which had been filled with laughter and lively chatter, suddenly fell silent.
Facing Gu Han, their feelings were complex.
The impression left by the previous battle was too profound.
The Crown Prince... defeated by an unknown nobody?
No... he was no longer a nobody. Before long, his fame would spread throughout the Capital, across the ten nations, and perhaps even reach the upper sects!
Jealousy. Envy. Resentment... A mix of emotions left them speechless.
At this moment, the happiest of all was Mei Yun, who stood alone at the edge of the crowd, seemingly out of place. He approached with a smile.
"You sure made me wait!"
"Young Master."
Seeing Mei Yun approach, Ah-Sha shrank back in fear, whispering, "He... he doesn't seem human..."
"Ah-Sha."
Gu Han was also a bit panicked.
"What do you mean?"
"He..."
Ah-Sha mustered her courage to take another look at Mei Yun.
"There's too much dark aura around him!"
...
Mei Yun's smile stiffened.
Such a pretty little maid, and she curses as soon as she opens her mouth...
"Little girl."
He tried to force a kind smile.
"You see me..."
In an instant, everyone took a step back.
"You!"
Mei Yun was annoyed.
"That's too much! After all, I am your Instructor!"
"Stop right there!"
Fatty couldn't stand it any longer.
"Instructor Mei, whatever you have to say, just say it from there, please don't come any closer!"
"Right!"
Gu Han nodded.
"We can hear you just fine!"
"Mei Yun!"
Manager Li was on guard.
"Stay away from my prince! Or I won't be polite!"
...
Mei Yun was full of grievances, his mouth opened and closed several times, but in the end, he said nothing and returned to his original spot with a dejected look.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
They exchanged glances.
Had Instructor Mei become so terrifying?
"Tsk tsk."
Fatty patted Jiang Feng, full of disdain.
"Both princes, but look at your shabby residence compared to Red Hair's. There's no comparison!"
Manager Li wanted to hit him.
"Fatty brother."
Jiang Feng could only offer a wry smile.
"Of course, I can't compare to the treatment of the Crown Prince."
At this moment, Ah-Sha, drooling, was captivated by the pile of spiritual food in the center of the hall.
"Young Master, it smells so good!"
"It seems."
Jiang Feng sighed.
"The Crown Prince has really gone all out this time."
The spiritual food was made from the most exquisite parts of demonic beasts, carefully cooked with various precious spiritual fruits. Not only was it delicious, but it also greatly benefited cultivators, with effects even better than medicinal pills.
Of course, the price was steep.
"Eat!"
Fatty gestured with his mouth.
"If you're at a banquet, you have to eat and drink. What kind of banquet would it be otherwise?"
"Go ahead."
Gu Han patted her head.
"Okay!"
Ah-Sha nodded, not minding the greasiness, and hugged a beast leg that was a foot long and exuding a fragrant aroma, her face filled with happiness and satisfaction.
"Whose wild little maid is this?"
Suddenly, a disdainful voice rang out.
"So rude!"
The voice was soft, but in the now silent hall, it was crystal clear.
...
Ah-Sha hesitated for a moment and silently put the beast leg back.
She didn't care about the mockery of others, but she didn't want to affect Gu Han's reputation.
Soon, everyone found the source of the voice.
Liu Tong!
"How so?"
In the Crown Prince's residence, Liu Tong was fearless.
"Am I wrong? She has no manners at all!"
"Young Master."
Ah-Sha lowered her head, feeling sad.
"I'm sorry..."
"Silly girl."
Gu Han stuffed the beast leg back into her hands.
"Why apologize? Fatty is right, a banquet is for eating and drinking, just eat!"
With that, he stepped forward and walked towards Liu Tong.
"Gu Han."
Liu Ying's heart skipped a beat.
"What... what are you going to do!"
"Move aside!"
Gu Han glanced at her, expressionless.
...
Liu Ying fell silent.
She understood Gu Han's meaning; if she didn't move aside, she would suffer along with Liu Tong.
"You dare!"
Facing Gu Han, Liu Tong tried to act tough despite feeling uneasy.
"Do you know where this is!"
"Young Master Liu!"
Unexpectedly, Gu Han didn't strike, but instead slapped him on the shoulder.
"Tell me."
He pointed at the pile of spiritual food.
"What is that for?"
As he spoke, he applied a bit more force.
"You..."
Liu Tong was in pain.
His cultivation level seemed on par with Gu Han, but in terms of real strength, he was no different from an ant in Gu Han's hands.
"Let go of me!"
"Deaf?"
Gu Han frowned slightly and increased the pressure.
"I'm asking you, what is that for?"
"Let go of me!"
"Not talking?"
"Ah..."
Along with a scream, the sound of bones cracking reached everyone's ears.
...
Everyone was secretly shocked.
This guy was not only extremely powerful, but he also had guts like no other!
"Alas..."
Mei Yun wanted to intervene several times, but he held back.
He understood that Gu Han wouldn't listen to him.
"Right!"
Only Fatty was excited, stirring up trouble.
"Speak up, or you'll lose that arm!"
"You..."
At that moment, a somewhat shrill female voice rang out.
"How dare you! This is the Crown Prince's residence, and Young Master Liu is the Crown Prince's cousin..."
"Oh?"
Fatty was amused.
"An old acquaintance!"
The speaker was the woman he had slapped repeatedly that day.
"What now?"
He moved swiftly, appearing in front of the woman, smiling, "Has the injury not healed yet? Does your face still hurt?"
Seeing Fatty raise his hand again, the woman trembled with fear, her eyes rolled back, and she fainted.
...
Fatty pursed his lips.
"What's there to be afraid of? Fatty is a man who cherishes beauty."
Pah!
Everyone cursed in their hearts.
Damn cherishing beauty!
"Ah..."
On the other side, Liu Tong continued to wail.
He could feel his bones being crushed by Gu Han!
"It's..."
He was sweating profusely from the pain and immediately gave in.
"It's... for eating..."
"Did you hear that?"
Gu Han glanced at Ah-Sha.
"Hurry up and eat."
"Okay!"
Ah-Sha was instantly filled with happiness and contentedly gnawed on the beast leg.
Meanwhile, Liu Ying saw Ah-Sha's expression and suddenly felt an indescribable emotion that made her extremely uncomfortable.
"How bold!"
Suddenly, a voice filled with murderous intent came from outside.
"How dare you hurt my son, I'll kill you!"

"Dad!"
Hearing the voice, Liu Tong's face lit up.
"Quick... save me!"
Whoosh!
In the next instant, a figure flashed in from outside, aiming a palm at Gu Han. The spiritual power emanating from him made it hard for everyone to breathe.
Everyone's hearts tightened.
The newcomer... had at least reached the fourth level of Yuan Gathering!
"Let him go!"
"Your son?"
Gu Han's expression turned cold.
"I'm just disciplining him for you!"
Boom!
As he spoke, the spiritual power within him surged forth, he turned around to meet the palm, and the violent spiritual power forced everyone to retreat!
Bang!
In an instant, the two palms collided!
A scream rang out, and the previously aggressive figure was sent flying back even faster than he had arrived!
From beginning to end, no one had even seen what he looked like.
"He..."
Only He Zhong in the crowd barely caught a glimpse of Gu Han's movement.
"He's stronger than a few days ago!"
His voice was filled with bitterness.
"Don't compare yourself to him."
A faint voice came from behind him.
"Instructor Han?"
He Zhong quickly turned around, only to see that Han Fu had appeared behind him at some point.
"Why?"
He was somewhat unwilling.
Han Fu didn't speak further, just sighed.
Comparing yourself to him... will only lead to despair.
At this moment, other Instructors also arrived one after another, with Ministers Wu and Feng, the two vice presidents of the Martial Academy, being the last to enter.
Everyone promptly paid their respects.
Ministers Wu and Feng waved their hands and began to converse privately.
"What do you think?"
"No mistake, he's reached the Extreme Realm! After so many years, our Great Qi Martial Academy finally has a promising seed!"
Just now, they had witnessed Gu Han's actions.
"That one's not bad either."
Minister Wu glanced at the carefree Fatty, somewhat hesitant.
"It's just..."
The two exchanged a look and came to a conclusion.
He's just a bit shameless!
"What do you think?"
Minister Feng shook his head subtly.
"Does he stand a chance?"
"Let's see."
Minister Wu sighed.
"Anyway, he has more hope than our so-called number one talent of the Capital, the Crown Prince!"
"Speaking of which."
Minister Feng's brow furrowed slightly.
"I wonder which member of the upper sects has come this time."
"No need to guess."
Minister Wu shook his head.
"It's just someone related to him. It seems the Crown Prince is determined to control the Martial Academy. Not only has he won over Commander Zhou and the others, but he's also invited a powerful backer. Alas, troubled times!"
...
Not far away, Gu Han was carefully wiping the grease from Ah-Sha's mouth.
Beside him, Fatty kept egging him on.
"Is that all? If it were me, I couldn't bear it! Tsk tsk, why did you only break his arm? Why not be more decisive and just kill him?"
...
Gu Han's expression darkened.
Is that what you call decisive?
That's called seeking death!
At that moment, a group of people emerged from behind the screen in the center of the hall.
Leading them was Du Teng.
Following close behind were Jiang Hong and Yu Hua, among others.
"Cousin... Cousin!"
Seeing Jiang Hong, the pale-faced Liu Tong seemed to have found a lifeline, "You're finally here. This man is outrageous, he injured me like this, you..."
"Shut up!"
Jiang Hong glared at him fiercely.
"Useless thing!"
Liu Tong dared not speak anymore.
But the resentment and hatred in his eyes deepened.
"Did you do this?"
Jiang Hong's gaze swept over and immediately landed on Gu Han and Fatty.
He didn't need to guess.
The only people who had a grudge against him and the guts to do this were these two.
"Red Hair!"
Fatty, traumatized by being the scapegoat, quickly spoke up before Gu Han could, "Don't talk nonsense, this has nothing to do with me!"
Huh?
Gu Han glanced at him.
Had the Fatty become shrewd?
But this time, he didn't intend to let Fatty take the fall.
"I did it."
"Reason?"
"This person lacks manners, I'm just disciplining him on behalf of his father."
As soon as these words came out, the entire place fell silent!
