Chapter 412 - 412: Taking Back What Doesn’t Belong to Him
“Are you unwilling about the result?” Su Chen stood in the void, his gaze slowly sweeping over everyone present before finally landing on Qin Yuan.
His look made Qin Yuan’s heartbeat quicken. He felt immense pressure as if his divine soul would explode at any moment. It was just a glance, yet it overwhelmed him. One could imagine the terrifying existence Qin Yuan’s father, Qin Ziteng, had faced just now.
“I don’t dare…” Qin Yuan composed himself and restrained all traces of anger. Bowing respectfully, he uttered three words flatly.
“Haha… Quite the timid one, aren’t you?” Su Chen did not comment further.
He raised his hand slightly, one finger pointing up. At the tip, the aura of death brewed, as if countless divine lights were blossoming and extending out like an ancient divine sword.
In an instant, the surrounding void began to distort. Everyone’s expressions changed. Although Su Chen did not emit any killing intent, they understood clearly – Qin Yuan was only in the Nirvana Realm. Even without killing intent, this move from Su Chen would probably end his life.
There was no other reason than the sheer difference in their cultivation levels.
Crushing Qin Yuan was as easy for Su Chen as crushing an ant, not worth expending much effort.
At the same time, Qin Yuan’s expression also shifted. He looked at Su Chen’s actions and could not help rapidly retreating. A terrifying thought surfaced in his mind: Was Su Chen trying to kill him? Did he really dare?
Before this point, Qin Yuan had been quite confident. After all, the Shadowless Hall was not far away, and their Qin family’s Sixth Ancestor was also around. However, things had come to this – not a single expert from the Shadowless Hall had appeared, while the Qin family experts present were inadequate to protect him.
He was completely dumbfounded. If Su Chen was intent on killing him now, he truly did not know how to survive.
“Su Chen, you dare!”
“Fellow Daoist Su Chen, don’t be angry!” At this moment, two loud cries came from two different directions.
The first was from the Qin Ziteng. His hair was disheveled and he looked miserable, his battle robe full of unclosable cracks. But he had no time for that now. Seeing Su Chen about to attack again, he rushed over to stand in front of Qin Yuan.
Their Qin family only had this one peerless prodigy, Qin Yuan. If Qin Yuan was gone, the entire Qin family might decline in the next hundred thousand years. Thus, no matter what, he had to protect Qin Yuan!
Moreover, Qin Yuan was his own son!
The other voice belonged to the Sixth Ancestor of the Qin family. Though hunched over, the aura he emitted was extremely powerful. With light steps, he instantly appeared before Su Chen. His eyes were icy cold.
He was like an emperor in his twilight years, once again erupting with earth-shattering might. The stars in the heavens flickered as if a god had descended to the mortal realm. The entire world seemed unable to accommodate his true form, and the void kept distorting.
“Fellow Daoist Su Chen, if you use this move, it will mean an endless vendetta between the Qin family and you. 1 hope you can reconsider!” the Sixth Ancestor said, though extremely angry, he still maintained some rationality.
He understood clearly that they did not have much confidence in becoming adversaries with Su Chen at this time. At the very least, not while the experts of the Shadowless Hall refused to make a move. With just him and Qin Ziteng, no matter what they would be unable to stop Su Chen.
Therefore, he could only bring up the Qin family, hoping Su Chen would be calmer and more rational. After all, the quasi-emperor in their Qin family was not to be trifled with. If that person was provoked and used his last breath to take Su Chen away, it was not an impossibility.
“Don’t worry.” Su Chen glanced at the Qin family’s Sixth Ancestor and said, “1 will not harm his life.”
After speaking, Su Chen’s gaze subtly swept over a palace situated among the mountains not far away. Clouds and mists lingered there, immortal lights overflowing, its exact appearance indistinct. However, one thing could be sensed – the moment Su Chen moved to attack, several Saint King Realm masters swiftly extended their Divine Senses to lock onto his every action.
If Su Chen really dared attack, it was certain the instant he acted it would trigger a battle between several saint Icings. Moreover, it would be a fight to the death. From this, it could be seen the Shadowless Hall had not underestimated Qin Yuan. They only wanted Qin Yuan to suffer a little and temper himself.
“What exactly are you trying to do?” the Qin family’s Sixth Ancestor asked in a deep voice.
Su Chen’s promise not to harm Qin Yuan’s life made him breathe a sigh of relief, though it was just a single breath. After all, he could not entrust Qin Yuan’s life solely to Su Chen’s magnanimity. What if Su Chen completely crippled Qin Yuan instead? Although that would spare his life, the future Qin Yuan would be of no value to the entire Qin family. Moreover, all their previous hard work would be wasted.
“Nothing. I’m just taking back some things that don’t belong to him,” Su Chen said softly, his tone calm and emotionless as if discussing something extremely trivial.
“Don’t belong to… him?” The Sixth Ancestor froze but quickly reacted with a shocked expression. “You mean… The Longevity Immortal Body?”
Back then, why had their Qin family done so much, sparing no effort to heavily injure Qin Hao’s lineage? Wasn’t it all because of the Longevity Immortal Body? In the end, the exposure of this matter had made their Qin family the laughingstock of the entire continent.
Yet now, with just a casual remark, Su Chen intended to abolish Qin Yuan’s Longevity Immortal Body… How could they accept this?
“Su Chen! Doing this effectively makes you the enemy of the entire Qin family!” Before the Sixth Ancestor could react, Qin Ziteng suddenly shouted coldly. But his words were of no avail. Su Chen completely ignored him, pointing a finger down.
In an instant, divine light illuminated the heavens, shattering the clouds in all directions. Its power was extremely terrifying. The endless radiance condensed into a divine sword that tore through the firmament.
Qin Yuan’s entire body froze in place, enveloped by the sword light. He wanted to dodge but found the surrounding void had become an iron wall, trapping him there. Forget dodging, even moving a finger was impossible.
“Haha… Interesting, this is really interesting! Is this the might of the number one prodigy of the East Barrens?”
Just as Qin Yuan lost all hope, a disdainful chuckle rang out..
