Chapter 774: Chapter 768: Perplexed (1st update)
"You’re Su Chen?!!" Li Xing first was stunned, then his eyes instantly turned red.
He and his younger brother, Li Tu, had always had a very, very good relationship.
Both had come to the Divine Martial Continent from the Lower Realm after passing the Divine Human assessment.
But Li Xing had arrived many years earlier than Li Tu.
After Li Tu came to the Divine Martial Continent, Li Xing found him and brought him to the Li family.
Over this past year, Li Tu’s progress speed had been incredibly fast, even, not lacking even a bit compared to his older brother.
Li Xing had high expectations for Li Tu.
But who could have expected...
A few months ago, Li Tu actually died within the Xuanfeng Imperial Palace, and the person who killed Li Tu was none other than someone named Su Chen.
Li Xing had etched the name Su Chen deep in his heart, seared into his mind, and he swore to tear Su Chen into a myriad of pieces.
Originally, he had planned to go to the Xuanfeng Dynasty to find Su Chen soon.
Unexpectedly... ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
Su Chen actually appeared on his own doorstep? Standing right in front of him? Even holding hands with the young miss?
In that moment, Li Xing’s mind became unstable, and from hatred, he approached the feeling of deviating into madness.
"I am." Su Chen nodded. If Li Xing hadn’t immediately shown intense, profound killing intent towards him, he wouldn’t have revealed that Li Tu died by his hand, at least, not now.
But since Li Xing was irrational and blind, filled with a boiling desire to kill simply because he was holding hands with Li Ping, there was no need for restraint...
"Die!!!" Li Xing had no more words to waste, his mind filled with only one thought. He violently lifted his head, his eyes filled with murderous intent nearly overflowing, he showed no mercy, unleashing a sword strike.
That sword strike was not a testing one, but the strongest one Li Xing could execute.
Within that strike was not only his understanding of swordsmanship but also fierce, condensed Sword Intent; it even seemed to contain a hint of the laws of the sword.
It could be said that this strike was Li Xing unleashing all his hidden cards, aimed directly at annihilating and cleaving Su Chen.
As the sword was unleashed, the space and air in front of Su Chen began to warp and scream, Sword Light piercing everything, as if coming from an endless void, from an endless black hole, rushing towards him.
In an instant.
Su Chen suddenly shouted, "Soul Annihilation!"
Just these two words.
Su Chen made no other moves.
Not even blinking his eyes.
And following these two words, Li Xing’s body clearly trembled; then, all signs of life and breath, like a machine that was turned off, began to rapidly fade. In a split fraction of a breath, Li Xing’s eyes became empty, his heartbeat ceased, and the Sword Light he had unleashed completely vanished.
Boom!
Then, Li Xing collapsed to the ground with a crash.
Dead!
Su Chen had executed Li Xing with the ease of squashing an ant.
This monster, known as Li Sheng who once left a profound mark in Divine Human City, just died like that.
Without even the slightest ripple disturbing the water.
"You can only blame yourself," Su Chen muttered to himself at the bottom of his heart. People want to kill me; I have to kill them; there is nothing wrong with that.
Beside him, Li Ping showed no change in expression; she had known the outcome all along.
She didn’t stop it.
Even if she had tried to stop it, she wouldn’t have been able to. Li Ping knew Su Chen very well—a very domineering man who did not like killing. However, that was under the condition that you didn’t provoke him. Previously, Li Xing had obviously provoked Su Chen, even attempting to kill him. How could Su Chen not retaliate?
"The Li family lost a powerful figure from the Qiongji Realm!" Su Chen smiled, still holding Li Ping by her hand.
"And he was the only one from the younger generation of the Li family who reached the Qiongji Realm besides me," Li Ping said coldly. "Also, he was the favorite disciple of the Second Elder. By killing him, you sort of helped the Great Elder, didn’t you?"
"Oh?" Su Chen was startled, somewhat pleasantly surprised. "You’re also a member of the Li family, why didn’t you stop me?"
"Li Xing brought about his own death. Moreover, I couldn’t have stopped you. No one in the entire Li family could," Li Ping openly stated. This was not flattery but a fact. Even people of the same Realm have different strengths. Take her father, Li Mingyu, the family head of the Li family; although he is of the Sixth Layer of the Qiongji Realm, his actual combat power might only be about the same as Mu Shaoze, who is at the Fourth Level Peak of the Qiongji Realm. And Su Chen could defeat Mu Shaoze instantly! Su Chen is stronger than her own father, without a doubt! Even the old ancestor of the Li family, who is at the Seventh Layer of the Qiongji Realm, Li Ping even suspects he is no match for Su Chen!
Su Chen took a deep look at Li Ping.
Li Ping was, in fact, very charming at this moment.
That cold, intelligent, indifferent, rational demeanor was irresistible.
"Okay, let’s go!" Li Ping, feeling a bit strangely observed by Su Chen, took a step forward.
Su Chen followed closely, holding Li Ping’s small hand.
Soon.
In the backyard of the Li family.
Li Ping stopped and pointed to a separate small courtyard and an attic ahead: "This is where I live."
"Quite nice," Su Chen was somewhat pleasantly surprised; this kind of independent courtyard and attic was very much to his liking.
Seemingly impatient, Li Ping led Su Chen into the independent courtyard: "Start instructing me now. If you can’t satisfy me, I will have you thrown out of the Li family."
"Very well," Su Chen said confidently. "Bring out the martial skills you haven’t yet mastered to the Perfection Realm first!"
Li Ping hesitated slightly. After all, the only martial skill she hadn’t mastered to the Perfection Realm was the "Divine Blood Sword," a swordsmanship of a very high rank, the only martial skill of the Li family that is at the Half-Step Dao Level.
So far, Li Ping had cultivated the "Divine Blood Sword" to Great Achievement.
Bringing it out to Su Chen, she indeed hesitated as martial skills are fundamental to a family and generally not shared externally.
But, after thinking it over, Li Ping still brought out a rubbing of the martial skill.
In her view, Su Chen probably wouldn’t care about the "Divine Blood Sword."
Su Chen took the rubbing of the "Divine Blood Sword," then smiled and said, "Li Ping, go inside first! Go make me a cup of tea, put your heart into it, and when it’s ready, bring it here."
"Huh?" Li Ping was somewhat puzzled by this request from Su Chen; her mind oscillated between skepticism and curiosity. However, she forcefully suppressed these thoughts and, giving Su Chen a deep look, walked toward the room in the attic.
Meanwhile, Su Chen stood in the courtyard, continuously flipping through the rubbing of the "Divine Blood Sword," the Three Powers Transformation, infinitely enhancing the Divine Soul, terrifying thought processes operating like an incredible machine. Su Chen began to comprehend and deduce at an extreme speed.
Soon.
Su Chen closed his eyes, his entire being entering a state as still as an ancient well.
