Chapter 364: 364. Encountering a Female Hooligan
364. Chapter 364: Encountering a Female Hooligan
The guard's face was twisted in agony; the clothes all over his body were burned to rags, and the exposed skin was charred black, looking exceptionally shocking.
Su Chen heard this and nodded with satisfaction.
He withdrew the flames and even thoughtfully used his foot to lift the guard up, saying, "Those who submit to circumstances are wise."
The lead guard looked at his own charred arm, which had shriveled together due to the intense fire, looking like a tumor, extremely ugly, and even had rotting pus constantly oozing out.
It was both painful and numb, and just moving it slightly caused heart-piercing, bone-chilling pain.
This arm was likely ruined.
The guard felt resentful inside, wishing he could hack Su Chen into ten thousand pieces, but he was truly terrified of that wicked Spirit Fire and could only swallow his anger.
"You all follow me, I will take you there."
Su Chen was not worried that the guard would pull any tricks, but he did not follow the guard immediately.
The guard walked two steps, discovered Su Chen had not followed, and could not help but turn his head in confusion.
"The rest of you, sweep through the entire Sun Family; you must loot every treasure inside without leaving a single piece behind."
Su Chen cast his gaze upon Xiaoxian and the others, his eyes shining with a look of certainty.
As soon as Xiaoxian heard this, he instantly became excited.
After all, he was currently very keen on digging up treasures; this might just be the nature of the Dragon Race.
The lead guard heard this and could not help but shiver.
With what had just happened, the lead guard did not doubt the truth of Su Chen's words in the slightest.
The entire Sun Family was likely about to undergo a change of heaven.
Thinking of this, the lead guard dared not delay and immediately headed toward Sun Taohong's residence.
Sun Taohong's courtyard was not hard to find; it was the most magnificent one in the entire estate, but currently, she was not in her own courtyard, but rather drunk in the gentle embrace of one of her male concubines.
Su Chen had just arrived at the entrance when he heard ambiguous sounds coming from inside.
What they were doing inside went without saying.
The lead guard could not help but shudder, looking at Su Chen while trembling, and said with a shaking voice: "I have already brought you here; can you let me go now?"
Su Chen curled his lips into a smile, his cold, thin eyes staring straight at the lead guard.
"Sure."
Su Chen's voice was low and carried a hint of magnetism.
The lead guard felt happy upon hearing this and subconsciously wanted to flee, but before he had walked two steps, the Blue Quenching Spirit Fire arrived as promised.
The body of the lead guard, who had been full of life just a moment ago, instantly ignited with a raging fire; the speed at which the fire spread was so fast that in the blink of an eye, it almost swallowed him whole.
"Ahhh! You didn't keep your word... I... I already brought you here, why are you..."
Before he could finish his sentence, his voice came to an abrupt end; the man was completely swallowed and turned to ashes, let alone his physical body, even his soul was burned clean away.
Su Chen glanced at him lazily and said unhurriedly: "I only told you to lead the way, but I never promised you that I wouldn't kill you."
As his voice fell, his eyes held a hint of playfulness: "I did indeed promise to let you leave, but I gave you the chance and you were useless yourself, so you were still killed by me."
With such a big commotion outside, it was hard for the people inside not to notice. Sun Taohong was currently enjoying the pampering of her male concubine, and upon hearing the disturbance outside, her mood was instantly ruined.
She was furious and rushed out wearing only an undergarment.
As soon as she went out, she immediately saw Su Chen standing there.
Su Chen stood tall and upright, handsome beyond compare, dressed in white robes with light blue gold-threaded patterns, making him look like the bright moon in the sky; if one ignored the bloodstains on the hem of his robe, he was the complete image of a refined young nobleman.
Sun Taohong narrowed her eyes, looking for a long time without recognizing who the person in front of her was.
This could not be blamed on her; she had rarely left the Central Province before, so even though she knew of Su Chen's reputation, she had never seen him in person and thus did not know who Su Chen was.
But Su Chen's appearance made her unable to help but laugh out loud.
Another free male concubine had been delivered.
Thinking of this, Sun Taohong looked at Su Chen playfully and then said: "Where did this dashing little cultivator come from? Why have you come to this Head of the Family's courtyard?"
Her unscrupulous gaze landed on Su Chen, looking him up and down as if appraising a piece of merchandise, her eyes full of shrewdness.
Su Chen had been here for so long, and it had always been him eyeing others to forcibly seize their belongings; when had he ever been inspected by someone else like a head of cabbage?
Looking at her ugly appearance, the scars on her face were like centipedes spread across it; even though she was curvaceous, she appeared burly and extremely strong, like a reincarnated Li Kui.
Su Chen could not help but twitch the corner of his mouth, his gaze toward Sun Taohong already carrying a hint of coldness.
He had originally thought Nangong Xuntian was already an arrogant and brainless fool, but he had not expected this Sun Taohong to be no less so—a complete female hooligan who lusted after beauty.
"You are the Sun Family Head of the Family, Sun Taohong?"
Su Chen looked at Sun Taohong with a half-smile, not responding to her previous question.
Sun Taohong was a bit annoyed at being skipped over, but looking at his flawless face, she forcibly suppressed the thoughts in her heart.
"The little cultivator has quite a temper. That's right, I am indeed the Sun Family's Head of the Family, Sun Taohong, but I don't know who you are to dare run wild in my Sun Family."
When Sun Taohong first spoke, she was still smiling, but by the end, the style changed, and the expression on her face gradually became sharp.
As her voice fell, the pressure belonging to a Quasi-Emperor Peak Realm powerhouse erupted instantly, sweeping across this land in the blink of an eye.
The grass and trees on the ground could not withstand it and already showed signs of withering; even the sky seemed to change color because of it, with dark clouds gathering as if thunderclouds could strike down at any moment.
Under such powerful pressure, Su Chen seemed completely unaffected, a playful smile hanging on his face: "What? Is that all the ability the Sun Family Head of the Family has? It feels like you're scratching an itch for me; there's no deterrent power at all."
By the end, Su Chen enunciated every word heavily, full of provocation.
Sun Taohong narrowed her eyes slightly upon hearing this.
She was not a brainless fool like Nangong Xuntian.
The person in front of her was high-spirited and had an extraordinary bearing, with a handsome face; one look and it was clear he was no ordinary person.
Yet she could only sense the man's aura as being in the Great Saint Realm.
But if he could resist the pressure of the Quasi-Emperor Peak Realm, there were only two possibilities.
The first is that he possesses a magical treasure capable of saving his life, but such people are generally either wealthy or noble. She has never seen such a person in the Central Province.
The second is that he deliberately suppressed his cultivation realm, so when outsiders probe him, they can only perceive his realm as the Great Saint Realm. (End of chapter)
