Chapter 476: An Underling Defeated By Me
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The Heavenly Path Sect was just a small faction in the Southern Region in the eyes of the many forces present. Any one of them could easily annihilate it.
However, before leaving, Su Chen uttered a ruthless threat, making them afraid to take action until now.
At this moment, they had encountered the main character himself here, so they had to properly show their sentiments no matter what. Otherwise, the other major domains would think their myriad races feared the human Su Chen!
With this thought in mind, everyone’s gazes inevitably fell upon Su Chen and the Long family elder. They eagerly antic.i.p.ated the clash between Su Chen and the Long family.
“The Long family?” Surprise flashed through Su Chen’s eyes as he regarded the elder. However, his expression soon turned strange as his gaze pa.s.sed from the elder to the young man behind.
In Su Chen’s view, this person’s strength was only ordinary. What made his expression odd was the World-Transcending Sword Master’s inheritance in his mind thrilling with excitement upon seeing this youth. This left Su Chen somewhat puzzled.
At the same time, a system panel appeared before Su Chen.
[Saint King Realm powerhouse: 99,998/100,000]
“It’s been three years. Is the bragging finally about to end?” Su Chen muttered while eyeing the panel.
This brag had first surfaced three years ago when he initially obtained the World-Transcending Sword Master’s inheritance. Only today was it nearing completion.
Between the Saint King Realm and the Great Saint Realm, there existed a gulf despite their names differing by one word.
Previously, Su Chen had predicted this situation, preparing several contingency plans. But if he could reach the Saint King Realm, dealing with the many masters present would undoubtedly become much easier.
[Saint King Realm powerhouse: 99,999/100,000]
The panel kept jumping. In practically a single breath, one more was added.
[Saint King Realm powerhouse: 100,000/100,000]
The number swiftly met the quota.
“I won’t claim the cultivation for now,” Su Chen silently thought, relieved.
Soon after, he dismissed the system panel and resumed staring at the Long family youth behind the elder.
“If I’m not mistaken, this young man should be the original inheritor personally chosen by the World-Transcending Sword Master.”
Su Chen scrutinized the youth, musing to himself. Ever since the youth’s appearance, the World-Transcending Sword Master’s inheritance in his mind had been pulsating excitedly.
According to the World-Transcending Sword Master’s projection, this Long family youth was the successor he had personally selected.
However, in this life, Su Chen and Ye Ruxue were variables who had seized the inheritance instead.
If not for them, the youth receiving the World-Transcending Sword Master’s inheritance would have been guaranteed, according to his predictions.
“It seems the World-Transcending Sword Master greatly valued this inheritor he chose! Why the urgency? How impatient to pa.s.s on the inheritance to him!” Su Chen muttered, sensing the throbbing inheritance in his mind.
Just then, Ye Ruxue’s voice transmission came through, simple and clear in meaning – this Long family youth was indeed the World-Transcending Sword Master’s original successor.
Although never confessing herself as reborn, after all they had gone through, she no longer concealed it from Su Chen, able to glimpse many future events. At least, Ye Ruxue had shed quite a bit of pretense before him.
“Fellow Daoist Su Chen, please answer my question first,” the Long family elder said, smiling. But unconcealed killing intent lay beneath it.
By publicly killing their experts, Su Chen’s actions were undoubtedly a resounding slap. As one of the ancient royal clans, how could they suffer such humiliation?
“I killed him. So what?” Su Chen mildly met the elder’s gaze and responded indifferently.
The elder’s expression drastically changed at this, growing cold as his snake-like eyes fixed on Su Chen, his aura also roiling restlessly.
Witnessing this, the myriad races’ experts present were inwardly startled.
The Long family’s Saint King Realm master…was about to erupt in anger!
Just as everyone eagerly antic.i.p.ated the imminent showdown, a thunderous roar resounded, shaking heaven and earth.
The firmament itself seemed to explode as endless s.p.a.ce shattered like mirrors. Coagulated vitality instantly submerged the world.
In the distant sky, a towering figure stood aloft. Blue hair on end and cold ruthless eyes brimmed with killing intent that chilled the heart, exhibiting peerless, world-suppressing might.
He was a Saint King Realm powerhouse!
Moreover…a saint king of the Thundercloud Hou Clan!
Seeing him, all present immediately grasped the situation.
The Thunder Cloud Hou Clan expert had come to condemn Su Chen!
Even the Long family elder was briefly stunned by this person as his aura swiftly dissipated.
“Su Chen! Did you kill a Great Saint Realm master of my Thundercloud Hou Clan?”
The saint king’s hair swirled wildly, his eyes resembling two lightning bolts, piercing and scanning the world with matchless prestige, the power to dominate the nine heavens readily apparent.
Despite phrasing it as a question, his att.i.tude remained firmly convinced.
Before Su Chen could respond, another cold laugh rang out.
Then, a glowing creature manifested on Su Chen’s right, composed as he stood with hands clasped behind his back, glancing at Su Chen.
“Su Chen. We meet again. Do you still remember me?”
“Jin Yuan of the Divine Gold Clan?” Su Chen’s brows furrowed slightly then relaxed as he smiled. “I remember you – the first underling 1 defeated from the Divine Gold Clan.”
This newcomer was none other than the one who had contested the quasi-emperor’s coffin with him in the Chaotic Sea Star Region.
Back then, Su Chen, wary of the overwhelming number of formidable opponents, did not have the opportunity to eliminate him.
In truth, there had been another significant reason – anxious to rescue Ye Ruxue, he had not killed Jin Yuan. Even vastly outnumbered, eliminating a mere Jin Yuan would have been easy.
However, Mu Qingxue might have been harmed.
Years had pa.s.sed since then. This Divine Gold Clan creature had recovered from his injuries and seemed to have chanced upon some opportunity in the Chaotic Sea Star Region, advancing a level in cultivation. This unexpected development surprised Su Chen..
