A group of people appeared on the second floor.
The moment he noticed the five people who appeared upstairs, Yang Hu had already identified their strength.
The man in front was most likely Gu Gangyu, a peak-stage warrior.
Right behind him was another peak-stage warrior, one step behind.
The other three people, with threatening expressions, possessed the cultivation of advanced-stage warriors.
As soon as they noticed Yang Hu's gaze, the customers immediately began to look up.
When they saw Gu Gangyu and his right-hand man, Gu Hangyu, coming down the stairs, everyone instinctively made way.
Right after that, Gu Hangyu grabbed someone from the crowd and quickly asked:
"What happened?"
Earlier, they had been drinking in the private room when they heard a loud crash and immediately came out to see what had happened.
But naturally, they wouldn't start shouting without knowing the situation. So they immediately asked someone.
What if someone they couldn't afford to offend had appeared? Acting recklessly in that situation would be the same as asking to die.
The man who was grabbed didn't dare hesitate for even a moment. Aware of Gu Gangyu's reputation and that of his group, he immediately told everything that had happened.
After hearing this, Gu Hangyu became serious and quickly whispered everything he had heard into his boss's ear.
Although he whispered very quietly, to Yang Hu, it was as if it were being played through a speaker at maximum volume.
So he clearly heard everything.
'Things have gotten a bit complicated…' Gu Gangyu frowned as he looked at Yang Hu.
He didn't expect Yang Hu to be a Martial Master. He had clearly investigated everything before…
Thinking of this, the expression on his face showed fear — not of Yang Hu.
But of the punishment from the Jiang Family, if they found out that he had done the job sloppily and had even offended a master!
Gu Gangyu then stepped forward calmly and bowed respectfully.
"I didn't know that a Martial Master would be willing to visit my humble bar."
"It was truly my negligence not to personally receive you, Master Yang."
In truth, Gu Gangyu didn't completely believe that Yang Hu was a Martial Master.
He had investigated everything very carefully: previously, Yang Hu was only an early-stage warrior and had become crippled.
And being crippled, it was almost impossible to advance in cultivation, not to mention that he didn't have resources.
But Gu Gangyu would not break the harmony in public, much less risk offending a Martial Master.
For someone who had reached his position, he knew very well that he could not be impulsive in matters like this.
He had done many illegal things, and if a Martial Master killed him for offending him, at most he would spend ten days in prison as a symbolic punishment.
Moreover, everyone there believed that Yang Hu was a Martial Master. Bowing to him would not make Gu Gangyu lose any prestige.
But one thing was certain: to defeat Sister Su like that, his strength was at least that of a peak-stage warrior.
If he were crippled, that wouldn't be a big problem for Gu Gangyu. But if that was also fake…
Thinking of this, he immediately invited Yang Hu:
"Why don't Master Yang and I go to the office?"
"Alright," Yang Hu nodded lightly.
He really needed to find out why Gu Gangyu wanted him to take a loan.
Yang Hu truly couldn't think of anything about himself that was worth scheming over.
"Great, let's go," Gu Gangyu led the way and soon showed an embarrassed expression.
"You see, Master Yang, we only have stairs. That was my mistake!" he apologized quickly.
"Don't worry, I will clear out the bar immediately so we can talk in peace."
"No need. Just go to your office," Yang Hu refused.
Leaving Gu Gangyu a bit perplexed.
"Then, why don't I personally help carry your wheelchair?" Gu Gangyu offered respectfully.
But his mind was full of calculations, thinking that he might be able to find out whether Yang Hu was really crippled at that moment.
Of course, even if Yang Hu accepted his help, he wouldn't dare confirm for sure that he wasn't pretending.
But to his surprise, Yang Hu shook his head again. "No need!"
Then, under the shocked gazes of everyone, and the horrified looks of Gu Gangyu and his companions,
The wheelchair began to glow with a transparent bluish light and flew to the top of the stairs.
"I'll wait for you inside," Yang Hu entered the private room.
"This… this… how is this possible…"
Gu Gangyu's mind went blank.
Yang Hu actually controlled the wheelchair to fly?
Even so, Gu Gangyu forced himself to stay calm and not let any reaction show.
Gu Hangyu was different. He almost blurted out:
"Gran—"
But Gu Gangyu's hand appeared at that instant, covering his mouth.
Then, he immediately went up the stairs with extreme caution.
For the first time, he felt small.
And he felt a fear even greater than that of punishment from the Jiang Family.
How could this happen?
What were the chances that a boy he believed to be just a crippled warrior was actually a Grand Master?
Was he dreaming?
In Lingyun City, there were only ten Grand Masters, and none of them were this boy.
Had he just witnessed the birth of the eleventh Grand Master of Lingyun City?
But then fear struck him.
If he was hiding this, would he kill him to silence him?
In front of a Grand Master, escaping was impossible. Talking about laws was also useless.
One more Grand Master could save thousands, or even tens of thousands of lives every year during beast tides.
If a Martial Master killed him, he would be detained for fifteen days as a symbolic punishment.
But if a Grand Master killed him…
He would even be rewarded for having done a good deed for the city!
"That's a master? That's incredible, he can even control a wheelchair to fly!"
"So stylish… is he my prince charming?"
"What are you waiting for? Call an ambulance for Sister Su already, she's been unconscious for several minutes!"
As soon as Gu Gangyu disappeared upstairs, people immediately began to comment on what had happened.
