243. Chapter 243: Shi Zhengxiong wants to use Lv Luo as a Cauldron

"You yellow-mouthed brat, there is no need for your glib tongue here. The Protective Talisman I gave my son had a strand of my Spiritual Power sealed within it. Once he was in danger, it would immediately release this aura for me to sense. This aura cannot be faked."

Seeing Su Chen quibbling, Zhao Zhengxing could not help but speak.

Although he knew Su Chen was from a hidden family, he also found this arrogant and domineering attitude of his very hard to stomach.

Explaining so much to Su Chen was only because the Sect Master had given orders in advance; otherwise, he would likely have unleashed a killing blow on Su Chen directly.

Su Chen had not expected Zhao Yangyao's old man to care about him so much, but this Protective Talisman was useless anyway.

It hadn't appeared when he faced so many dangers before, and now just a light touch had triggered his Spiritual Power; it was clearly a defective product.

"Since you are so omnipotent, then go find your son yourself. I haven't seen him since I entered the Secret Realm."

Su Chen smiled slightly, a wicked look on his face, and the words he spoke were enough to make anyone's blood pressure skyrocket instantly.

Hearing this, Zhao Zhengxing understood what was going on, no matter how foolish he was.

"My son, was he killed by you!?"

Seeing Su Chen's punchable expression, Zhao Zhengxing's eyes turned scarlet, and he wished he could slice Su Chen into a thousand pieces immediately.

Following his voice, his cultivation base of Quasi-Emperor Fifth Layer erupted instantly, rampaging through the surroundings without the slightest regard for anyone else's life.

Some disciples with lower cultivation bases could no longer endure the pain and collapsed to the ground, whimpering.

Liu Ruyan narrowed her eyes slightly, thinking to herself that this Great Elder was truly cold and selfish, acting purely on impulse without any regard for the lives of others.

How had she ever thought this was a sect she could rely on for life?

The Elders and Alliance Leaders in this sect, every single one of them, were selfish, callous, heartless, and indifferent people.

Fortunately, Lv Luo was standing beside her, helping her block the majority of the damage; otherwise, she would be suffering just like those disciples.

At this very moment, she felt incomparably fortunate that she had chosen to follow Su Chen and acknowledge him as her master. For no other reason than this: the people in this sect were not even worth a single toe of Su Chen's.

Although Su Chen was powerful and his talent could be called that of a genius, and he had successfully broken through to the Great Saint Jing Yichong in the Ancient Tomb, he was, after all, only at the Great Saint Jing Yichong.

Now, facing the Great Elder's pressure directly, his face turned somewhat pale, and he felt as if his body were being heavily pressed by a thousand-pound stone, leaving him unable to move.

Zhao Zhengxing had already developed a murderous intent; his mind was occupied by revenge, and his intuition told him that his son's death must have something to do with the man in front of him.

Regardless of who Su Chen was, since he had killed his son, he must pay in blood!

Thinking of this, Zhao Zhengxing immediately brought out his ultimate killing technique, causing even the sky to seem to change color. The nearby disciples felt this powerful fluctuation of Spiritual Power and were so agitated that they could not sit still, expressions of pain appearing on their faces.

This speed was so fast that, with Su Chen's current strength, it was impossible to dodge.

At the critical moment, Lv Luo raised her hand and delivered a heavy blow.

It intercepted Zhao Zhengxing's attack halfway, and the backlash of Spiritual Power instantly made him vomit a mouthful of blood, sending him flying dozens of meters away.

Zhao Zhengxing clutched his chest, and it took him a long time to stagger to his feet, looking at Lv Luo in disbelief.

He hadn't noticed Lv Luo at all just now, assuming she was just a character like a Cauldron, of no importance.

Yet, that casual strike just now had left him, a person at the Emperor Realm Fifth Layer, with no power to parry, and he hadn't even perceived it—which was enough to show that her strength was terrifyingly high.

Even when the Sect Master fought him, the two could trade blows back and forth.

Not far away, Shi Zhengxiong watched this farce without stepping forward immediately. Seeing that his sect had lost so many disciples, he was actually suspicious of Su Chen.

After all, although the Qingyun Secret Realm had its difficulties, with the Second Elder leading the team, there shouldn't be such heavy casualties; someone must have been meddling.

He had been wondering just now whether this was Su Chen's doing, and now it seemed it had everything to do with him.

However, he still had to consider Su Chen's position as the Young Master of a hidden family; if he could make Su Chen cooperate with them willingly, losing some disciples didn't matter.

After all, the lives of those disciples were not worth as much as the benefits Su Chen could bring.

And the fact that the unremarkable woman beside Su Chen had such strength meant she must be someone sent by the family to protect him.

Shi Zhengxiong was glad he hadn't gone to hold him accountable directly just now.

Zhao Zhengxing was unwilling to accept that he had been knocked away so easily.

It must be because he was caught off guard just now, which allowed this cheap woman to ambush him!

It must be that.

Thinking of this, a crazed look appeared on Zhao Zhengxing's face as he gathered all his Spiritual Power once more, intending to deliver a fatal blow to Su Chen.

Regardless of what hidden family young master he was, he was determined to kill this person today!

But this time, before he could even get close, he was swatted away by Lv Luo in one go.

Even though Zhao Zhengxing was prepared this time, he still had no power to parry, and that woman hadn't even moved from her spot from beginning to end, as if she felt this was just a minor scuffle.

Zhao Zhengxing's expression cracked, and he looked at Lv Luo in disbelief.

"What kind of thing are you? I advise you best not to meddle in other people's business; this is a private grudge between me and this brat!"

After speaking, Zhao Zhengxing immediately released his realm pressure, attempting to make Lv Luo retreat in the face of difficulty.

Little did he know, this was like brandishing a broadsword before Guan Gong. Lv Luo curled her lips into a smile, her eyes carrying a hint of contempt: "I wondered what kind of cultivation realm you had to be so arrogant in front of me; it turns out you are just a mere Quasi-Emperor Fifth Layer."

As her voice fell, a pressure a hundred times more intense than Zhao Zhengxing's erupted from her body, instantly sweeping across the entire plaza, though under her deliberate guidance, it bypassed Su Chen and his group.

As for the others, they were instantly rendered breathless by this terrifying pressure.

Shi Zhengxiong, who had been watching the show from afar, could not help but widen his eyes, a few flickers of fanaticism flashing within them.

This pressure... it had reached at least the peak of the Quasi-Emperor realm!

One must know that Shi Zhengxiong had been stuck at the peak of the Quasi-Emperor realm for many years, having exhausted all kinds of methods without finding an opportunity to advance further. Now, he had finally seen a woman with such profound cultivation.

If she could become his Cauldron for Dual Cultivation, then stepping into the Great Emperor Realm would only be a matter of time.

As for Zhao Zhengxing, he was ultimately going to pay the price for his arrogance. His already injured body was dealt a further blow, and he vomited a mouthful of blood, his face ghastly. Under the oppression, he couldn't even say a complete sentence.

Seeing that Zhao Zhengxing was about to be beaten into a serious injury, Shi Zhengxiong, who had been watching the show, had his own considerations and flew forward to block for Zhao Zhengxing.

Su Chen raised his eyebrows slightly, watching Shi Zhengxiong with great interest. (End of chapter)
