Gu Qingshan stood rooted to the spot, his mind replaying the words Xiao Chen had left him with.
"If you follow me again, I'll kill you!"
Such words were spoken with an air of nonchalance, as if he viewed Gu as an insignificant ant that could be squashed at will, effortlessly disposed of with the mere lift of a hand.
On any other occasion, or if it had been anyone else who dared to speak to him this way, he would have been furious, exploding on the spot.
But the fact that it was Xiao Chen who had said it left him without a comeback, without even a hint of anger in his heart.
What he felt was only deep fear!
"Could his strength possibly surpass mine?"
Gu Qingshan asked himself for the first time in his life, doubting his own abilities.
"Elder Gu!"
Zhang Caiwei was even more shocked.
What had he just witnessed?
