Moreover, besides the Judgment Department, there was an even more mysterious entity, the Shengyi Gate, about which he knew absolutely nothing!


    His instincts told him that it probably wasn''t something simple either!


    And if Shengyi Gate really had something to do with the incidents of the past, how could Su Chen possibly ignore it?


    He had a strong feeling that it was very likely!


    After all, the timing of that mysterious figure''s appearance back then was too coincidental, and Shen Lin had no reason to lie to him about this matter!


    Su Chen suddenly realized that even though he had already dealt with the Skull Society, and even if he were to resolve the issues with the Five Great Families afterward, it seemed like things were far from over; instead, they were bing moreplex and more troublesome!


    Thinking of all this, Su Chen felt overwhelmed with pressure, and he could only try his best to improve his Cultivation Realm!


    Although the Cultivation Technique on the sheepskin scroll only went up to the Meridian Expansion Realm, he had to at least cultivate to that Realm first!


    In addition, Old Master Pei''s spection about his mother had always been swirling around in his mind. Although he felt it was unlikely, he couldn''t let it go either!


    All these things truly made Su Chen feel as if he was in the midst of a fog, stumbling around and unable to find his way!


    However, he also deeply believed that the fog would eventually clear, and all truths would ultimatelye to light!


    Of course, all this was predicated on the foundation of formidable strength!


    ....


    Just as Su Chen was practicing cultivation at home in the afternoon, the Situ Family had already sent out invitations for Situ Guang''s wedding!


    In one afternoon, nearly all the upper echelons of Yandu were aware of the news that the third young master of the Situ Family, Situ Guang, would be holding his wedding in five days!


    And the bride was a woman whose name they had hardly heard before, named Ye Mei, reportedly from the Wu Family of Jianghai!


    In fact, the upper ss of Yandu had already heard rumors, but it was only this afternoon that they officially received the invitations!


    Although the invitations from the Situ Family were sent out somewhatter than usual, the upper-ss individuals could begin preparing thoughtful gifts as soon as they received their invitations!


    Because they could feel how much the Situ Family valued this wedding, nearly all the upper crust of Yandu were invited!


    Such a scale was not normal even for a third young master''s wedding, even though he was the grandson of Situ Kong!


    Recalling the previous financial summit, some astute individuals began to realize something, and thus selected their gifts even more carefully!


    Although the Five Great Families, especially the Situ Family, had been embroiled in negative newstely, a camel starved is still bigger than a horse, and they were far from starvation!


    At most they were just a bit depleted of Yuan Qi!


    Even for the so-called upper ss, the Situ Family was still a behemoth, an unattainable existence to be looked up to!


    So they still had to try their best to ingratiate themselves, in hopes of getting aboard thatrge ship!


    At the moment, in a room within the vast Situ courtyard, sat a young man idly flipping through a magazine.


    "Cousin, you''re about to get married, howe you still spend every day in this room?"


    Just then, someone pushed the door open and walked in,ughing.


    "Isn''t it because grandfather ordered that I not leave the courtyard at all before the wedding?"


    Situ Guang helplessly shrugged and said,


    "Ah, these days are almost making me moldy!"


    "No wonder I haven''t seen you go outtely, always cooped up in the house!"


    Yang Rongughed and said,


    "So it''s an order from your grandfather! But why won''t he let you go out?"


    "Isn''t it because he''s worried I might identally bump into that gue again and another ident might happen!"


    Situ Guang said,


    "Actually, it''s not just grandfather who''s worried, I myself am a bit scared of encountering that guy. He is literally a lunatic!"


    As Situ Guang mentioned that evildoer, his face immediately showed an expression of immense anger and hatred, and a bit of fear!


    "He is indeed a madman!"


    Yang Rong agreed, nodding his head, his face a mix of expressions!


    He had not expected that the young man he had encountered at the Jianghai Night Club would be so incredible, even turning the Five Great Families upside down!


    Although he was filled with hatred for that man, he dared not take any action!


    After all, if all the great families were so wary of him, what was the Yang Family inparison?


    "But don''t worry, this kid won''t be hopping around for much longer. I heard from Grandpa that he is nning to unite the other great families to deal with this kid!"


    A gleam of light shed across Situ Guang''s face as he spoke.


    "Really?"


    Upon hearing this, Yang Rong became incredibly excited:


    "Does that mean this kid is dead for sure?"


    "What do you think?"


    Situ Guang nced at Yang Rong and hummed:


    "Do you think he has any chance of surviving when several great families join hands against him?"


    "That''s definitely a dead end then!"


    At this moment, Yang Rong seemed to see the tragic end of Su Chen, his face suddenly showing a look of relief:


    "This kid has been arrogant; he must not have expected his day woulde too!"


    "He brought it upon himself. He thinks he is someone, thinking the Five Great Families are just for show!"


    Situ Guang also curled his lips and said.


    "Right, after this wedding, you should be officially in power, right?"


    Yang Rong suddenly blinked and spoke to Situ Guang.


    "Should be about time!"


    At these words, a proud smile spread across Situ Guang''s face:


    "Speaking of which, I really have to thank that kid!"


    "If it weren''t for him forcing Situ Lei to kneel and bow in public at the financial summit, losing face, this position wouldn''t havee to me!"


    "That''s true, it turns out that kid actually did do a good deed!"


    Yang Rong also happily spoke, after all, Situ Guang''s rise in position brought great benefits to the Yang Family!


    Immediately, the two men exchanged nces and burst into loudughter...


    ....


    Su Chen spent the entire afternoon cultivating at home, naturally unaware of Situ Guang''s uing wedding.


    Of course, even if he were not at home, he might not have known this news, as it was currently circting only among the upper echelons!


    Although Lin Ruoxue and Su Jin were absolutely top-tier upper-ss individuals, the Situ Family, even if their heads were squeezed by a door, wouldn''t possibly send invitations to them!


    In fact, even if Lin Ruoxue or Su Jin knew about this news, they didn''t think it was rted to Su Chen, so naturally, they wouldn''t tell him!


    Su Chen cultivated until more than five in the evening, then he went to the market to buy groceries and cook.


    Two hourster, Lin Ruoxue came back, and Su Chen had just finished preparing the meal, so the two of them shared a simple yet cozy dinner together.


    After dinner, Lin Ruoxue went back to work upstairs, while Su Chen returned to his former room, taking out the Formation Technique Book to study.


    He nned to wait a few days for the materials Demon had prepared for him to arrive, then he would dismantle the current small Gathering Yuan Formation and rece it with a medium-sized one!


    With that, his cultivation speed would climb to a new level...
