383. Chapter 383: Comforting Natasha

"Wouldn't it have been better to do this sooner? Our great Head of the Family Ouyang wouldn't have had to suffer so much, don't you think?"

Su Chen patted Ouyang Xing's blood-smeared face and said with a beaming smile.

He looked bright and energetic, but in Ouyang Xing's eyes, he was simply a soul-reaping Rakshasa.

His pupils dilated uncontrollably, and he swallowed subconsciously before saying, "What... what do you want to know?"

"Where is that envoy from the Ziwei Pavilion?"

Su Chen asked cheerfully, "No need to be so nervous, I'm just asking."

Yet, seeing him like this, Ouyang Xing didn't feel for a moment that Su Chen was just asking; he feared that if his answer wasn't satisfactory, his head would be separated from his body on the spot.

"Inside..."

After Ouyang Xing finished speaking, he hurriedly added, "The one who came here is only a Puppet; it cannot communicate."

Su Chen nodded, patted Ouyang Xing's head again, and said, "Got it."

"I've said everything I know, can you..."

Before the words were finished, Ouyang Xing's head fell to the ground, rolling several times with a rumble.

A look of terror still hung on his face, his mouth remaining in a gaping position.

In the blink of an eye, he had lost his life just like that.

Su Chen clapped his hands, as if he had touched something extremely disgusting, and then strode inside.

Walking inside, he finally saw a lifeless doll; the doll was lifelike, just like a real person.

Seeing someone enter, it mechanically raised its head, subconsciously about to speak, but Su Chen was quick-eyed and fast-handed, chopping its head off directly.

The doll then slumped down limply.

Su Chen felt around and finally found a green Token inside its clothes, with the three large characters "Ziwei Pavilion" engraved on it in a bold, sweeping calligraphy.

"Got it. We'll set off for the Ziwei Pavilion tomorrow."

Su Chen curled his lips into a smile, full of high spirits.

The others naturally had no objections.

"Then what about here..."

Luo Shen asked with some hesitation.

"Isn't there still Fufeng? Let him tidy up the Taiyi Sword Sect properly."

Su Chen curled his lips and said, "That kid actually has quite a bit of ability, enduring humiliation for so long."

"What do you mean?"

After hearing this, Lv Luo tilted her head in confusion; wasn't Fufeng just a bit of a sissy, where was the enduring of humiliation?

Luo Shen couldn't help but touch Lv Luo's shoulder and said with a smile, "Fufeng's true strength has already reached the Quasi-Earth realm; he just deliberately suppressed his cultivation before."

"His scheming is definitely not low."

Yi Zhuyue also added at the right moment.

Having lived for so many years, her eye for people was naturally very sharp; although Fufeng disguised himself as foolish, he was actually a very shrewd person.

Before, his approaching Sun Taohong was actually to use the Sun Family's influence to topple the Taiyi Sword Sect; the way Sun Taohong protected him back then was not something a mere boy toy could achieve.

He even guided them to the Taiyi Sword Sect later on, wanting to use their hands to eliminate the Second Elder.

Regardless, Fufeng had already sworn a Heart Demon Oath, vowing loyalty to Su Chen, so these little schemes were of no consequence.

Su Chen had just arrived in the Central Province and was in need of manpower, so putting Fufeng to good use was not out of the question.

Lv Luo listened for a long time but didn't understand, so she simply gave up thinking; in any case, the Master's ideas wouldn't be wrong.

"Luo Shen, go and give Fufeng a nudge; we'll prepare to head to the Ziwei Pavilion tomorrow." Su Chen curled the corners of his mouth, his mood greatly improved at the thought of seeing that envoy from the Central Province soon.

Luo Shen nodded.

She was bright and clever; Su Chen choosing her to go was the best option.

"It's getting late, let's rest for a while, and then we'll set off..."

Su Chen narrowed his eyes, looking in the direction of the Ziwei Pavilion, a look of determination flashing in his eyes.

Natasha had been following Su Chen step by step, but after hesitating for a long time, she didn't go inside.

Su Chen had originally intended to rest directly, but seeing Natasha's pitiful appearance, he pulled her into the room.

"What's wrong? You don't seem very happy; did that old man scare you?"

Su Chen asked Natasha with concern, pulling her directly into his arms and caressing her hair.

Natasha nestled against Su Chen like a little bird, burying her head in his chest and listening to his strong heartbeat.

She remained silent for a long time, and Su Chen didn't speak either, patiently waiting for her to speak on her own.

"Mm..."

Natasha gave a soft "mm," and then, as if having made a great decision, looked at Su Chen with her azure eyes, carrying a hint of conflict.

"Am I very useless?"

Su Chen was taken aback and looked at Natasha in confusion.

"I'm not as powerful as Yi Zhuyue and the others, nor am I as bright and clever as Luo Shen, and even in terms of bloodline, I can't compare to Xiaoxian, who is a natural member of the Dragon Race. When I encounter danger, I can't even protect myself..."

Speaking of this, Natasha's eyes welled up with crystalline tears, and she couldn't help but sob softly.

For so long, she seemed to have always been seeking Su Chen's protection, unable to help with anything, only holding him back.

She felt she was truly useless.

Su Chen did not react for a long time.

Natasha felt even more that she was right, and in an instant, a thick sense of confusion enveloped her.

"Master, if you think I am weak, then... you don't have to take me with you..."

Before the words had even faded, Su Chen suddenly kissed Natasha.

His kiss was overbearing yet carried a hint of tenderness.

When the kiss ended, Natasha's cheeks were flushed, her eyes held a hint of bewilderment, and her body had gone soft as a puddle of water.

Her eyes were bright and sparkling, like azure seawater; her nose was high and straight, and her cherry lips were coated in moisture, looking extremely alluring.

"Master..." Natasha said in a small voice.

"Do you understand what I mean now?"

Seeing her so adorable, Su Chen couldn't help but kiss her again, a mischievous grin hanging on his face.

Natasha was stunned, her pupils dilating slightly; she looked like a little dazed girl, filled with a hint of confusion.

"Fool."

Su Chen flicked Natasha on the forehead, "I, Su Chen, have never been someone who needs to rely on women; only those without strength blame their own women for being incompetent or only causing trouble."

Su Chen tilted his head slightly, his eyes full of confidence, and the words he spoke were utterly arrogant: "To be my, Su Chen's, woman, you never need those things defined by the secular world."

Natasha subconsciously clenched her fists, her heart pounding wildly; she pressed her lips together, opening and closing them several times, but for a moment, she didn't know what she should say.

"You are very good, no need to worry about those things."

Su Chen said softly, "Besides, you have also contributed a lot behind the scenes." (End of chapter)
