Chapter 689: Chapter 683: Death List (2nd Update)
And for Qin Tu, this despair was especially great because "Heart Soul Chaos" was locked onto him, aimed right at him. Can you imagine what he was facing at this moment?
Qin Tu even forgot to fight back, forgot to dodge, forgot to retreat, and forgot to roar. He stood there like a soul-drained corpse, watching the "Heart Soul Chaos" sword pierce his body.
Only when the blood began to drop and intense pain began to spread, when his vision gradually darkened and he could barely stand, did Qin Tu’s cognition surge back.
He instinctively looked down, and what caught his eye was a dark red expanding, a sword scar piercing through his chest.
"Fourth Prince!" The middle-aged man who came with Qin Tu had his complexion drastically change, and he rushed over to support Su Chen, pouring out all the miraculous elixirs and medicines at once to feed the Fourth Prince.
Even so, the Fourth Prince was still at death’s door, barely clinging to life after half a day.
This was because Su Chen deliberately didn’t kill the Fourth Prince. Otherwise, if that one sword had been aimed a bit higher, Qin Tu would have undoubtedly died.
However, even if the Fourth Prince didn’t die, from this day on, he would be completely crippled.
The "Heart Soul Chaos" sword would definitely leave an indelible impression at the bottom of his heart. Unless Su Chen died one day, that shadow could never be erased, and the Fourth Prince’s path of martial arts cultivation was effectively blocked from then on.
"Young boy Su, why didn’t you kill him?" Jiuyou asked curiously.
"The Fourth Prince of the Wanlong Dynasty cannot die here!" said Su Chen with a grave voice. "Therefore, someone in the shadows had already completely locked onto him. If my sword just now had truly been aimed to take his life, then it would’ve likely been blocked before it even hit him."
"You also sensed someone hiding in the shadows?" Jiuyou asked with a smile. "Good intuition. Guess who it could be?"
"Naturally, it would be a person of old ancestor level from the Xuanfeng Dynasty," Su Chen was almost certain.
The Xuanfeng Dynasty was far too inferior compared to the Wanlong Dynasty. If the Fourth Prince of the Wanlong Dynasty died within the imperial palace of the Xuanfeng Dynasty, it might provoke a life-and-death war between the two dynasties.
And if such a war were to occur, it would certainly end with the extinction of the Xuanfeng Dynasty. That’s why the Xuanfeng Dynasty absolutely could not allow the Fourth Prince to die, especially within the imperial palace.
The strength of the hidden old ancestor from the Xuanfeng Dynasty was extremely formidable. Although Su Chen couldn’t perceive it precisely, he knew that his own strength was likely not enough to match, and the opponent could definitely stop his "Heart Soul Chaos".
Instead of drawing out the old ancestors of the Xuanfeng Dynasty, preventing his "Heart Soul Chaos" from reaching Qin Tu at all, and allowing Qin Tu to emerge unscathed, it was better to seriously injure the Fourth Prince, wasn’t it?
"Fourth Prince, we talked about this before. If you had joined forces with Wu Li, there might have been a chance to defeat me. But you weren’t willing, sigh..." Then, Su Chen shook his head, looking at the dying Fourth Prince and smiled, "There was once an excellent opportunity right before your eyes, but you did not know how to cherish it!"
After speaking, Su Chen retreated next to Third Prince Chu Hong.
"Su Chen, thank you!" Chu Hong was extremely moved, sincerely feeling like Su Chen had saved him. To Su Chen, it might have been a simple effort, but to him, Chu Hong, it was like being pulled out of the Abyss.
"It’s nothing, we’re friends," Su Chen smiled and said. He felt quite good about Chu Hong. At least, Chu Hong didn’t carry the pride of the royal family, did he?
"Su Chen, you... you... I... I will remember you!!!" Qin Tu stared deeply at Su Chen, weak but with venomous hatred as he spat out his threat.
"It’s good to remember. I might go to the Wanlong Dynasty after a while, and by then I hope the Fourth Prince will take good care of me..." Su Chen replied with a smile, completely unfazed by Qin Tu’s venomous resentment.
Su Chen was truly arrogant to the extreme.
Anyone with clear eyes could see how much Qin Tu resented Su Chen. He probably wanted to tear Su Chen into a million pieces, didn’t he?
In such a situation, Su Chen still dared to visit the Wanlong Dynasty, and even wanted to give Qin Tu a heads-up, as if fearing that Qin Tu would otherwise be unaware?
Damn it!
Such boundless arrogance!
Does Su Chen not know the kind of ’reception’ he would get upon arriving at the Wanlong Dynasty? It would surely be a fate worse than death, a Heavenly Net Earthly Trap!
Truth be told, Su Chen wasn’t afraid at all; he had great confidence in his own strength.
Now, if he used all his hidden cards, no one beneath the Dome Extreme Realm could hold him back.
And once he absorbed the Dao Spirit, his strength would surge wildly. What would the Wanlong Dynasty amount to then?
He warned Qin Tu because when he arrived at the Wanlong Dynasty, he wanted Qin Tu to come to him recklessly and deliver himself to the doorstep, making it easy to eradicate him root and stem.
Su Chen didn’t think of himself as bloodthirsty or murderously inclined, but if someone sought to kill him, his only response was to kill in return—there was no second option!
Today, when Qin Tu fought with him and harbored the intent to kill, he did so with the goal of seeing Su Chen dead.
Therefore, in Su Chen’s heart, Qin Tu had already made the list of the dead.
Because the Old Ancestors of the Xuanfeng Dynasty protected him in secret, he couldn’t kill Qin Tu. Well then, he would just have to wait...
A gentleman can wait to take a life for three to five months... heh, heh... it was just a matter of postponing it a little longer, that’s all.
"You’re coming to the Wanlong Dynasty, I will make sure to welcome you properly!!!" Upon hearing Su Chen’s determined plan to visit the Wanlong Dynasty, Qin Tu’s heart surged with boundless murderous intent and excitement.
As long as Su Chen set foot in the Wanlong Dynasty, Qin Tu was confident he could tear him to pieces.
The Wanlong Dynasty, that was his turf.
"Hahaha... Splendid!" In the next moment, the Xuanfeng Emperor suddenly stood up. He burst out laughing and clapped his hands, saying, "Continue drinking, continue drinking. Of course, if any gentlemen wish to continue exchanging moves, please proceed!"
The Xuanfeng Emperor was in a good mood. Originally, due to Qin Tu’s provocation, the Xuanfeng Dynasty was sure to lose face this time, but unexpectedly... Su Chen’s presence had turned the tables.
This was something he had never anticipated before.
Although he felt that Su Chen was too arrogant and brittle, he had to admit that Su Chen was indeed one of the most talented individuals he had encountered in ten thousand years!
Even in the heart of the Xuanfeng Emperor, Su Chen was worthy enough to be paired with the Seventh Princess.
Consort Yun was also very satisfied, staring at Su Chen with the look of a mother-in-law sizing up her son-in-law; at twenty-three years old, he could defeat a Martial Cultivator at the Seventh Layer of the Creation Realm!!!
Such talent was no less than the monsters from her maternal family.
"Elder Huo, is Brother Su excellent?" At this moment, the most excited was the Seventh Princess. Her eyes melted as she gazed at Su Chen, and she sent a Sound Transmission to Elder Huo, boasting.
"Excellent," Elder Huo’s voice was heavy: "Exceptionally excellent! I take back my previous assessment of him. He is among the top three talents I’ve encountered in my lifetime!"
