Chapter 181: Su Chen Was Too Mysterious
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Hiss… Defeating a middle-stage Nirvana Realm expert with a single punch, how could the Great Mystery Holy Son be so terrifying?”
“A prodigy who pa.s.sed nine Nirvana Tribulations is indeed terrifying!”
“This person must not be left alive!”
“Tsk, go kill him if you have the ability! He is already at the Nirvana Realm. Even a Quasi-Saint Realm expert may not be able to take him down.”
“Not to mention that he has a Saint Realm expert behind him. Since he dares to come, he must have the confidence to leave alive.”
Just as everyone was discussing.
Not far away, in a restaurant.
Marquis Wu’an and Marquis Changping sat opposite each other.
They had come today specifically to witness Su Chen’s magnificence.
Yet never did they expect that after just half a year of not seeing him, Su Chen’s strength had reached such a terrifying level.
With just one move, he completely shocked the two of them.
“Marquis Wu’an, what do you think?”
Marquis Changping was silent for a moment before speaking with a solemn expression.
“Unfathomable! In the entire Dashang Empire, almost no one is his match!”
When Marquis Changping heard this, he shook his head gently and said with a rueful expression, “When we first saw him at the border of Qingzhou, he was only at the initial stage of the Spirit Sea Realm. But who would have thought that he could reach such a level in such a short period of time!”
“Marquis Changping, what are the odds of victory if Marquis Champion fights the Holy Son again?”
“Less than ten percent!”
Marquis Changping said solemnly.
“Then what if Champion’s friends join in as well?” Marquis Wu’an asked again.
Marquis Champion had put in a lot of effort to deal with Su Chen over the half year.
He had invited many experts from the surrounding first-rate forces, including Holy Sons and Holy Maidens, and even a few prodigies of the demon race!
“Fifty-fifty…”
Marquis Changping said indifferently.
In his opinion, those Holy Sons and Holy Maidens were even weaker than Marquis Champion.
If they really fought Su Chen, they would have no choice but death.
Only by attacking together could they play some restraining role, ensuring they wouldn’t die too quickly.
“At the end of the day, it’s all because the Junior Duke Qi was too impatient. Marquis Champion’s plan was to wait until Su Chen obtained the high-grade Dao weapon before taking action. But that Junior Duke Qi thought himself clever, wanting to show off his might to Su Chen here. Now, falling to this state, he has only himself to blame.”
After taking a sip of tea, Marquis Changping spoke in a neutral tone.
Having lived for hundreds of years, he was used to all kinds of machinations.
Marquis Champion’s thoughts couldn’t be hidden from an old fox like him.
After all, the value of a high-grade Dao weapon was obvious to all.
For a second-rate power, it would be the ultimate sect-protecting treasure, not emerging unless the sect faced a life-and-death crisis.
Not to mention a Nirvana Realm expert, even among the Quasi-Saint Realm experts, few possessed high-grade Dao weapons!
Some poor-performing Saint Realm experts even used high-grade Dao Weapons.
With Su Chen about to obtain one, who wouldn’t want to s.n.a.t.c.h it midway?
“By the way…”
Marquis Changping seemed to have thought of something. He put down the teacup in his hand and said thoughtfully, “Did you notice Su Chen’s strength just now?”
“Isn’t it just the initial stage of the Nirvana Realm?”
Marquis Wu’an said dismissively.
“No!”
Marquis Changping’s mind kept recalling everything he had just discovered. He muttered, “Something’s wrong! There seems to be something wrong. I seem to have overlooked something… My intuition tells me that Su Chen’s strength is not only at the initial stage of the Nirvana Realm! No matter what, Junior Duke Qi is an expert who has pa.s.sed the sixth Nirvana Tribulation. Moreover, he is in the middle stage of the Nirvana Realm! How could he be defeated by Su Chen with just one punch?”
“Hiss… This joke is not funny!”
When Marquis Wu’an heard this, his expression gradually turned solemn as he spoke in a deep voice.
Fifteen minutes later.
The golden-haired eunuch stopped in front of a mansion.
He cupped his hands at the golden chariot behind him and said with a smile, “Young Friend Su Chen, this will be your residence today. If you need anything, just order away. The mansion servants will handle it for you.”
“I don’t need servants.”
Su Chen sat on the chariot and sized up the mansion. He continued, “Dismiss them all.”
“Alright.”
The blonde eunuch nodded slightly.
Buzz…
In the next moment, people instantly appeared around them, entering the mansion and bringing out all the servants.
After all the servants had left, the blonde eunuch continued, “Young Friend Su Chen, are you satisfied now?”
“Yes.”
Su Chen replied indifferently. Then, he looked at him and said calmly, “When does Dashang intend to give me the high-grade Dao weapon that I obtained after killing Fahui?”
“Tomorrow night at the latest!”
The blonde eunuch seemed not surprised by Su Chen’s question at all.
After saying that, he looked at Su Chen and continued, “I wonder if Young Friend Su Chen has any other instructions?”
“No.”
Su Chen rode the black jade Qilin in front of the carriage and slowly entered the mansion.
Watching Su Chen enter the mansion, the eunuch’s face instantly darkened.
This Su Chen was too mysterious…
From the beginning to the end, he did not even show his face, always staying in the carriage.
As a result, the eunuch had no idea about Su Chen’s true strength.
Aside from the golden chariot’s defenses, its ability to isolate divine sense was maxed out. Even a normal Quasi-Saint Realm cultivator’s divine sense couldn’t penetrate the golden chariot.
“What exactly are you hiding?”
The blonde eunuch narrowed his slender eyes and stared at the mansion.
After a long time, he turned around and left.
“To me, Dashang is no less than a dragon’s pool or tiger’s den. How could I not guard against you?”
Su Chen turned his head and looked in the direction where the eunuch had left. He chuckled softly.
As soon as he finished speaking, he waved his hand and closed the gate of the mansion. Then, he strode out of the golden chariot.
He stood alone in the middle of the mansion, looking around.
He was quite satisfied with the environment in the mansion.
At the very least, there was a formation set up in the air above the mansion.
This formation also had the effect of isolating divine sense. Although it could not stop a saint, it was more than enough to stop the prying of a Quasi-Saint Realm expert.
He didn’t expect to be able to hide it from the entire Dashang.
However, as long as he could hide it from the people he wanted to hide it from, that was enough.
“The Dashang Empire’s saints, the Emperor, and all the Dukes shouldn’t have the spare time to spy on my cultivation, right?”
Su Chen muttered in a low voice.
However…
The moment he finished speaking, an aged voice sounded from behind him.
“That might not be the case…”
