King of Assassins-Chapter 751 - 554: Honor_3

Song Gang and a few friends gathered around, "Yeah, we're all adults here, why cause trouble?"

"Let's all have a drink, and laugh off the past."

"We're all from An Province, let's be friends, more friends, more paths..."

Gao Xuan glanced at everyone and said indifferently, "You're not worthy to be my friends."

Everyone's expression changed dramatically. Even businessmen care about face. Gao Xuan, a live-in son-in-law, acting so arrogant.

"Brother, what you said is really out of line."

Gao Xuan casually brushed that person aside and left with Su Le.

Watching the revolving glass door, Song Gang looked helplessly at the dean and said, "This guy really has a bad temper."

The dean also looked troubled. He had been instructed by the principal to handle the matter well and make sure Mr. Gao was satisfied.

And yet Gao Xuan just walked off. He didn't even know how to explain this to the principal.

As the dean was feeling troubled, he saw the principal pushing the door open and quickly approached, "Principal, Mr. Gao just left."

He whispered, "The talks went very badly. The Song family refused to apologize. What should we do?"

The principal's face also turned grim, "I just rushed here after a meeting with the education committee, and you still can't handle such a small issue."

Song Gang had already approached voluntarily, "You must be Principal Yu, hello, hello..."

Principal Yu didn't shake hands with Song Gang, instead, he shook his head and sighed, "Mr. Song, I'll be honest with you, Su Le is the daughter of Su Rong, the chairman of Su Group. This matter, alas..."

As the principal, he had hoped to turn big issues into small ones and small issues into none. But the Su Family wouldn't let him inform the other party, so he couldn't say much.

Unexpectedly, because he was a step late, the matter had escalated.

Song Gang was taken aback, "Su Group? An Province's Su Group?"

Of course, he knew the Su Group, a company with assets worth trillions, especially in the high-end pharmaceutical industry, with several globally bestselling drugs.

Such a colossal entity, not just in An Province, but nationwide, very few could afford to provoke them.

The more Song Gang thought about it, the more he feared, knowing well the terrifying power of such a behemoth. They wouldn't need any underhanded tactics, just simple business methods to ruin him financially.

The group of friends that accompanied Song Gang were also scared stiff. As businessmen from An Province, they obviously knew how powerful Su Group was.

It's no exaggeration to say that a word from Su Group would mean they couldn't do any business in An Province.

The group exchanged glances, each face ashen.

The principal shook his head and also turned and left.

Song Gang, however, was frightened, and slapped his son across the face, "You waste, this time you'll be the death of us!"

Song Gang grabbed Song Bo by the collar, fiercely saying, "You will go kneel and apologize to Su Le immediately. If she doesn't forgive you, you might as well die at her house..."

This minor incident eventually turned into a massive storm.

Song Bo and Li Hui were sentenced to three years by the court for wanton slander, seriously infringing on others' reputations and causing severe consequences.

The national flagship interview program conducted a detailed report on the matter, and various platforms also reported on it, warning netizens not to infringe on others' privacy or reputations indiscriminately.

What the public didn't know was that after this matter, Song Gang went bankrupt. Including several of his friends, they were completely ruined...

The national interview program merely confirmed the nature of this incident.

Afterwards, everyone at An University knew one thing, Su Le is not to be trifled with...

Though Su Le wanted to keep a low profile in school, this incident caused quite a stir. Many people also found out about her real identity. This made her uncomfortable.

Su Le saw the interview program and everywhere she went, she was observed like a panda, and people had a deep sense of awe towards her.

She felt she couldn't stay at school and had to take a leave to go home.

Su Le searched around the house and finally found Gao Xuan in the training room.

Gao Xuan was sitting on a chair, holding a longsword in its scabbard, with his eyes slightly closed, deep in thought.

Since she was a child, Su Le often saw Gao Xuan sitting tranquilly with a sword, but she couldn't understand what her father was really doing.

It didn't seem like he was practicing swordsmanship, nor was it meditating. Regardless, this state of Gao Xuan always felt unfamiliar to her.

Seeing Gao Xuan like this today, Su Le felt more that her father exuded a strong sense of aloofness and detachment, like an immortal about to ascend, devoid of any human aura.

Su Le was startled and ran over to hug Gao Xuan's neck, "Dad."

Gao Xuan opened his eyes and said indifferently, "No need to yell so loudly in my ear. I can hear you."

"You scared me to death, I thought you were going to fly away to become an Immortal with Sword Control."

Hearing Gao Xuan speak, Su Le breathed a sigh of relief.

Gao Xuan gently sighed, "Your intuition is quite accurate. This time, Dad really has to leave first."

"Huh?"

Su Le looked puzzled, "Dad, what are you talking about?"

Gao Xuan didn't answer and instead asked slowly, "Your problem is solved now. Are you satisfied with this outcome?"

Su Le thought for a moment and shook her head, "I'm not satisfied. If our family didn't have power and influence, I wouldn't have been able to get justice this time."

Gao Xuan smiled approvingly and gently stroked Su Le's forehead, "Your understanding shows you're mature.

"You must understand that justice is very expensive. Only when power is strong enough can there be justice. Conversely, the cost of evil is very low."

Gao Xuan said, "If you want the world to operate according to your will, you need enough power and wealth."

Su Le nodded vigorously, "Dad, I understand. I must work hard to earn money, and strive to gain power."

"Good girl, that's the way."

Gao Xuan thought for a moment and added, "Actually, if an individual's power is strong enough, they can also control their own destiny."

He spoke sincerely to Su Le, "Your genes are excellent because they come from me. You can also walk the path of individual life evolution."

"Cultivate to become an Immortal?" Su Le couldn't help but laugh.

Gao Xuan laughed too, "Aren't you always curious about what I do with the sword? Today, let me show you my true skills."

Su Le was intrigued, "Okay, I want to see Dad's Sword Immortal skills."

"Watch carefully."

"I'm watching with wide eyes, please start your show, Dad." 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

"Zheng..."

Su Le saw a cold glint flash suddenly, and then the clear sound of a longsword returning to its scabbard echoed in her ears.

Su Le looked at Gao Xuan, totally confused; she thought Gao Xuan was performing some sort of magic trick, just uncertain how that cold light appeared.

Gao Xuan gestured with his eyes, "Look there."

Following Gao Xuan's gaze, Su Le saw a crack slowly opening in the middle of a silicone mannequin about seven or eight meters away, then it suddenly split in two and fell to the ground.

"Huh?"

Su Le ran over in disbelief and touched it; the area where the mannequin split was extremely smooth.

She was very familiar with this silicone mannequin, having used it for practice since childhood. It looked soft but was actually very tough.

Even if you hit it hard with a large blade, it would only leave a seam. There's no way it could be cut in half.

Moreover, her dad hadn't moved at all while sitting in the chair. He was seven or eight meters away from the mannequin.

Su Le was dumbfounded; this completely defied scientific common sense.

Gao Xuan smiled at Su Le, "This is Extraordinary Power. Although it's nothing special, it represents a great evolution of human life."

He handed the sword to Su Le, who instinctively took it.

"This sword contains a trace of Sword Intent left by me. It will help you avoid many detours."

Gao Xuan instructed, "Lele, take good care of your mother in the future."

Su Le was even more shocked, "Dad, where are you going?"

Gao Xuan thought for a moment and said, "I have to return. I've lingered in this world too long. Every person is an independent life; even the longest companionship must eventually end. Lele, I hope we meet again in the river of fate."

Though Su Le understood every word Gao Xuan said, she still couldn't quite comprehend their meaning.

Gao Xuan gently held Su Le's hand, "Thank you and your mom for letting me experience the joy of life. You have left an indelible, eternal mark on my life. This is my honor."

He sighed with emotion, "During this period, I never once drew my sword. It was truly wonderful."

Gao Xuan sincerely said to Su Le, "I love you, love your mom, love this peaceful era where I don't have to draw my sword..."

His voice grew softer, his breath weaker, the light in his eyes gradually dimming...

Su Le watched as Gao Xuan's breathing ceased, tears rolling silently down her face. She couldn't believe it was real. Unable to resist, she clung to Gao Xuan's neck, crying out, "Dad, Dad, wake up, wake up..."

Unlike the past decade or so, this time, Gao Xuan didn't respond to her any longer.
