Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)
Chapter 2357

He had placed his family at the service of the Guo family. That was a risky bet.

Even Maurice was shocked by this. After a slight pause, he agreed with a smile. He even raised his glass and toasted Quentin, sending shockwaves through the crowd. Many people were kicking themselves. "Why didn't I think of this idea?" They thought furiously.

After Quentin, it was time for the relatives and friends of the Guo family to congratulate the old master on his birthday.

Because they were family and friends, it didn't matter whether the gifts were valuable or not. It had become a way for Maurice to test the younger generation.

Of course, it was also a chance for the Guo family to show off.

The Guo family was strong, and their children's cultivation in martial arts was also extraordinary. Among the seven to eight young people who came onto the stage, the weakest had reached the early stage of the Earth Level, and the highest had already entered the middle stage of the Heaven Level. It was quite impressive.

The disciples of the families showed off one after another. Maurice looked at them with a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth and made comments from time to time. He appeared to be in a good mood. Finally, a man and a woman, about 27 or 28 years old, entered. Each of them held a long sword and they made obeisance to Maurice.

The woman looked up at him and said, "Grandpa, ordinary performances are inadequate for a day such as this. Gadiel and I wish to spar. Would you grant us this opportunity?"

She glanced at the young man by her side.

The young man also spoke with a confident smile, "Grandpa, I want to find a worthy opponent too. I heard that Giselle has recently made some progress. I would like to

see it."

The man, Gadiel, gave the woman, Giselle, a confident smile.

Seeing this, before Maurice could open his mouth, the crowd below began to murmur.

"That's Gadiel and Giselle. They're both experts. I heard that their cultivations have reached the advanced stage of the Heaven Level."

"They are going to fight in public in front of Master Guo!"

"Of course. Monash was the leading member of the younger Guo generation. Under him were Gadiel, Giselle, and Egon. They were almost on par with each other. They were regarded as the top forces under him, the Three Champions of the Guo family."

"If Monash was still alive, the three of them would have almost no shot at becoming head of the clan. However, now with Monash gone..."

"I see. I didn't know so much inside information."

"Gadiel and Giselle are both here. Where's Egon? Did he give up?"

As the guests below chattered, Maurice, from the main seat, could see through his grandchildren's intentions.

However, he wasn't angry. After all, this kind of behavior was quite normal in his eyes. He himself had fought to become head of the family.

Moreover, a match would serve as a display of the Guo family's strength.

Thinking of this, he approved, "True warriors are forged in combat. I'm very pleased that you have thought of this."

"Where's Egon? I would like to test the three of you."

Hearing Maurice's words, everyone was shocked again.

Obviously, no one expected that Maurice would call out for Egon, calling all the three best young people of the Guo family in that generation to compete.

Was he going to select the Master of the family on the spot?

For a moment, everyone was curious and excited.

However, Gadiel and Giselle stirred uncomfortably.

Maurice noticed this. "What's wrong? You don't agree?"

Giselle quickly spoke up. "Grandpa, your proposal is very good. Of course, I agree. However, I don't know where my cousin is."

"Er..." Maurice was also stunned and frowned.

"Isn't he here today?"

"Grandpa, I just called Egon, but I couldn't get in touch with him. I don't know where he went," Gadiel answered, a gloating glint in his eyes. Hearing this, Maurice's face fell.

After all, it was his 80th birthday. What could keep his own grandson away?

He looked at Zesiah and asked in a low voice, "Where is Egon?"

Zesiah was sweating profusely. He was extremely anxious, knowing that his son was a bit of a playboy who was always indulging his appetites. Could that be why he missed the Old Master's birthday party?

"Egon went out yesterday. Maybe he was delayed because something happened," he answered hesitantly.

"What should I do with you!" Maurice said in a low voice, the disappointment palpable.

Zesiah almost passed out. If he made Maurice angry on such a critical occasion, his son would never be the head of the family.

At this time, Hosea, who was next to

Maurice, spoke up, "Maurice, don't be angry. Yesterday, I heard from

блу

Heron that Egon invited him to shop for a birthday gift for you."

"Maybe he prepared something special for you and is hiding it as a surprise."

"Is that so?" Maurice asked.

"Yes, that's it. Egon said so

yesterday. He values your birthday

party very much and has been

preparing for a long time. He said

that he wanted to surprise you," Zesiah hurriedly agreed.

"You brat, you have so many tricks up your sleeve!" Maurice snorted. There was a smile at the corner of his mouth.

Then, he waved his hand to Gadiel and Giselle. "Since Egon's busy, we'll have a one-on-one match!" He declared.

Gadiel and Giselle turned, drew their long swords, and bowed to each other. In an instant, they were locked in combat.

It was a sight to behold. Both of them were strong and powerful, although they both had reservations, it was evident that they were at the advanced stage of the Heaven Level. Their moves were dazzling and dizzying, almost as if they had been practiced.

"Gadiel and Giselle, they're so powerful."

"Someone of the advanced Heaven Level would be an expert anywhere else. Do you think it's just a joke?"

"There's still Egon. I have to say, the Guo family really has firm foundations."

"These two are already so powerful. Imagine just how powerful Monash would have been."

"Monash reached the peak stage of the Heaven Level. He was already one of the toptier experts. It's a pity that he died."
