This is a suggestion that can be kept for now.
If there is no better choice...
The old men looked at each other, and nothing happened next.
But obviously, they were unwilling to let Xu Jiansheng come.
No one could have imagined that Jiang Bei said he wanted to cancel the engagement, but he actually did it!
Moreover, the first few were all very obedient, but they retreated when it came to Xu Jiansheng!
Now that people have come to demand an explanation, why should they, as “parents”, help smooth things over?
"We can't tell Xu Jiansheng that Jiang Bei has broken through to the realm of transformation and has no time to spare, right?" Zhao Lianghan couldn't help but twitch his mouth.
"You can't say that! You saw that bastard coming here a few days ago. His strength in the Transformation Realm is definitely beyond that of an ordinary grandmaster!" Lu Ye immediately stopped him.
"Given that kid's fear of trouble, there is no way he would show off his strength on Mount Hua."
"If Xu Jiansheng really knew Jiangbei's strength..." M..
Although he didn't finish his words, everyone felt a chill in their hearts.
The consequences are self-evident!
The Xu family will go crazy on the spot!
"How about just let that guy come over?" Sun Ao Shi agreed. "Why should we clean up his mess?"
"But that old guy Xu Jiansheng is waiting outside..."
Sun Ao Shi looked up and saw the prison guard standing at the door, not daring to breathe.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "Boy, go out and tell that old man that there is no such person as me in the prison and that I have been taken away and executed long ago. You will contact his apprentice to come and meet him later."
“…”
The prison guard had a lot of complaints but couldn't say them out loud, but he nodded and left.
When he arrived outside the prison, he honestly repeated the excuse given by Sun Ao Shi: "Mr. Xu... after investigation, there is no such person as Sun Ao Shi in Shancheng Prison. He..."
"fart!"
Before he could finish his words, Xu Jiansheng frowned and became angry.
"The person is gone?"
"Well... I can help contact his apprentice to come meet you later."
Xu Jiansheng couldn't help but roll his eyes. This might be useful for fooling others.
But lying to him?
A bit tender!
This Sun Ao Shi probably doesn't dare to see him and wants Jiang Bei to come in person to solve the problem.
As for whether Jiang Bei would give him face after they meet, that is another matter.
So this side of me and Sun Ao Shi...
Must see!
Sun Ao Shi must be seen whether he wants to or not!
The reason is simple!
After ending the call with Xu Wanqing at home and on the way here, Xu Jiansheng had already realized the seriousness of the situation.
And how much help Sun Ao Shi will provide!
If only the Xu family had ideas about Jiangbei, they wouldn't be so anxious.
But the existence of the Xue family is Sun Ao Shi’s second weakness!
Although the marriage certificate was not signed with Sun Ao Shi, don’t forget who the Xu family’s competitor is now?
It’s the Xue family!
Even if Sun Ao Shi really left the ancient martial arts world and retired in this mountain city prison, would he really just leave the Sun family alone?
If that was the case, why would he tell me his whereabouts?
Isn't it just that I'm still concerned about the Sun family?
It would be fine if his old friend of many years couldn't get Jiang Bei as his son-in-law, but if the Xue family got him... it would undoubtedly be a fatal blow to the Sun family!
After Sun Ao Shi left, the Sun family was not completely devastated, but it would be difficult for them to regain their former glory in a short period of time.
There is no one in this generation who can compare with Xue Yu, and the status of the first hidden family in the imperial capital is already in jeopardy.
As long as he told Sun Ao Shi these things... Sun Ao Shi would definitely not ignore them!
He knew that Jiang Bei was a grandmaster, and as his master, Sun Ao Shi naturally knew Jiang Bei's strength better than he did!
Today, I came here for the engagement, but also partly to confirm this almost certain guess!
"Then Sun Ao Shi has to call me Brother Xu when he sees me! Little brother, take me over!"
Xu Jiansheng said bluntly.
"He just called you old boy..." The prison guard felt aggrieved.
This old guy in front of me...this old senior is definitely not a good person, otherwise how could he know those people in prison?
Now he was caught in the middle, caught in a dilemma!
"This... Mr. Xu." The prison guard smiled stiffly.
"What? He doesn't want to see me?" Xu Jiansheng sneered.
“…”
You've already guessed it, why are you asking?
Xu Jiansheng also understands!
After all, he is one of the old seniors in the ancient martial arts world. Apart from anything else, when it comes to dealing with people, Xu Jiansheng is indeed many levels better than those old stubborn people.
Seeing the prison guard acting like this, he knew in his heart that the prison guard would not dare to offend Sun Ao Shi.
He can just pat his butt and leave, but this prison guard can't...
He thought about it, but then asked, "Is there really no such person in the prison? Don't lie to me."
"Really not!"
The prison guard was also very smart. He immediately understood that Xu Jiansheng was trying to give him a way out, and nodded seriously.
This is to prepare to leave and wait for Sun Ao Shi's disciples to come over...
"good!"
Xu Jiansheng laughed out loud, and then walked directly towards the prison gate, ignoring the prison guards' attempts to stop him.
After all, Old Xu is also a master, and a mere prison guard can't stop him.
"Mr. Xu, what are you doing..."
The prison guard's already struggling smile collapsed completely.
"You say there is no such thing? I don't believe it!"
"I will search every cell one by one! If I really don't see that old guy Sun Ao Shi, I will leave today!"
"But you can rest assured, little brother. If I find you, I won't make it difficult for you, and I won't let that old guy Sun Ao Shi make it difficult for you either!"
“…”
"Mr. Xu...you don't know who are the people in this prison. They are all extremely vicious!" The prison guard persuaded earnestly.
But at this time, the two had already arrived at the prison... What they saw were cells with locked doors.
"So what? Is there anyone in this prison who is stronger than Sun Ao Shi? Ha!"
This is really not the case... The prison guard felt a little sad.
I can only hope that those old guys won't blame me.
Fortunately, the cells of these old men were on the first floor, and Xu Jiansheng didn’t have to search for long... before he found this spacious and bright cell.
"Open the door!"
When the door opens...
Xu Jiansheng immediately saw those old men sitting on the board, discussing something!
"Sun Ao Shi!"
The old men were still discussing what to say when they called Jiang Bei later and what reason they could use to trick him into coming here.
No one cared when they heard the sound of the door lock. They just thought it was the prison guard who had returned to tell them that Old Xu was gone.
But this shout... almost made Sun Ao Shi, who was sitting on the bed, fall to the ground in shock.
Sun Ao Shi turned his head suddenly, his expression changed from astonishment to embarrassment, and then to a polite smile.
"Old Xu?"
"Oh my! After so many years, why did you suddenly come to see me in prison? What evil wind brought you here? Why didn't you tell me in advance before you came?"
"Look at me... I don't have anything to offer you... why don't you go back?"
