Chapter 1144: National Protection Bureau Secret Letter
The Mr. Chu mentioned by the butler is the eldest son of Chu Zhentian, who is Chu Xiaoxiao's father.
Upon hearing the butler's words, Han Yuan immediately spoke up.
"Dad, now is not the time to see him."
"There's no need to guess; he's definitely here to drag our Han family into trouble!"
What Han Yuan could understand, Han Guangyao naturally understood as well.
But after pondering for a moment, he replied:
"Let's see what he has to say first. Have him come in."
With Han Guangyao's words, the butler indeed brought Mr. Chu over.
Upon seeing the visitor, Han Guangyao politely said:
"Mr. Chu, what brings you here today?"
After Han Guangyao inquired, Chu Hexuan wasted no time and directly stated:
"The Chu family hopes Brother Han can use official power to suppress this Miracle Doctor Zhang."
"This person roughly has the strength of a Qi Transformation Peak, and he's a great threat due to his rampant and murderous behavior."
Han Guangyao had anticipated that Chu Hexuan was here regarding this matter.
He was weighing the pros and cons, whether to ride the road to darkness with the Chu family or immediately extricate the Han family from it.
But at this moment, a trusted subordinate suddenly entered the study and handed a secret letter to Han Guangyao.
Han Guangyao's expression slightly changed. This was a method used only when "the higher-ups" issued important directives.
He had only received such a secret letter a few times in total.
After quickly reading the contents of the letter, Han Guangyao shook his head.
"Mr. Chu, I'm afraid I can't be of any assistance this time."
"Just now, the chief representative of the National Protection Bureau, Thunder Master, sent over a secret letter, instructing that the official sectors in the Sichuan region must not intervene in this matter."
Chu Hexuan had assumed that with the current relationship between the Chu and Han families, this matter would not be too difficult to handle.
He hadn't expected that this issue would alarm the head of the National Protection Bureau!
The National Protection Bureau is a specialized agency managing cultivators, teeming with experts and strong individuals.
A family like the Chu family could easily be suppressed by a special task force from the Bureau!
"What's going on here?"
"Why has the National Protection Bureau stepped in?"
Confused, Chu Hexuan asked.
Han Guangyao did not conceal the matter, speaking with a bitter smile:
"Considering the relationship between the Han and Chu families, my heart is naturally with the Chu family."
"After the incident here occurred, I reported the situation to the leaders above."
"I also hoped to mobilize official power to sanction this Miracle Doctor Zhang."
"But just now, the National Protection Bureau sent over a secret letter."
"The letter instructed that the official sectors in Sichuan must refrain from suppressing Miracle Doctor Zhang and should even facilitate convenience for him within permitted rules."
"It seems Miracle Doctor Zhang is not as simple as he appears."
"He's not only a cultivator but also possesses some official connections."
Han Guangyao shared selectively what he could with Chu Hexuan.
With the situation developing as it was, it was clear the Han family would not assist the Chu family in dealing with Zhang Xiaoshan.
What the Chu family would do next was their affair.
"Thank you, Brother Han!"
"In that case, I will go back and report this to the old master."
Without any further intention to linger, Chu Hexuan aimed to bring the news back.
"I'll see Mr. Chu out."
Han Guangyao stood up, ready to escort Chu Hexuan.
"No need."
Chu Hexuan shook his head, then bid farewell and departed.
There was silence throughout the night.
At dawn the next day, some pilgrims appeared on the mountain path of Xuanhu Mountain.
Fuhu Temple on Xuanhu Mountain is a temple with very good incense offerings.
The pilgrims coming to Fuhu Temple to offer incense are unceasing every day.
However, Flying Peak behind Fuhu Temple was sparsely populated.
This place had steep mountain roads, impossible for ordinary people to climb.
At the summit of Flying Peak, Zhang Xiaoshan and Chu Xiaoxiao were both there.
After a cold snort, Chu Xiaoxiao again advised:
"Miracle Doctor Zhang, the Chu family will repay the eighty million they owe you."
"You'd better stop here and let me return."
"My grandfather is now a Divine Realm Expert. Though you're powerful, it's not wise to offend a Divine Realm Expert."
Zhang Xiaoshan chuckled coldly:
"You still don't understand the situation."
"Your Chu family owes me money and hasn't repaid it, and you still went to White Dragon Village to capture my people."
"You repeatedly provoke me, do you really think I can't do anything to the Chu family?"
Chu Xiaoxiao's face tensed, and she stepped back two paces.
But she soon regained her determination!
Her grandfather is a genuine Divine Realm Expert, incomparable to Bai Tiankui.
If Zhang Xiaoshan doesn't heed her advice, once her grandfather finds them, Zhang Xiaoshan won't even know how he died!
While Chu Xiaoxiao and Zhang Xiaoshan were speaking, some cultivators began to appear on Xuanhu Mountain.
These were people who hastily came upon hearing the news about Miracle Doctor Zhang and the Chu family.
Every Divine Realm Expert is an elusive presence.
It's extremely rare for Divine Realm Experts to engage in combat.
It's still not entirely certain if Miracle Doctor Zhang is a Divine Realm Expert.
But Chu Zhentian being a Divine Realm Expert is a settled matter.
Since the road only extended to the mountain's foot, many cultivators started climbing on foot.
At the foot of the mountain, the Chu family's convoy also arrived on schedule.
