Chapter 2036: I Have No Choice Left!
Also, He Tang is dead!
In terms of status, the impact of his death naturally can’t compare to Xu Ting’s!
But the way he died was way too strange, too bizarre!
It even gave people a bone-chilling feeling!
Of course, after this incident, Su Chen’s name also became loud and famous in the Outer Sect!
Nothing to be done—after something this big, it’d be impossible for it not to!
To the point that whenever Su Chen went out for a stroll these last few days, all he got were strange looks!
But Su Chen didn’t really care what others thought. He’d always only done what he felt he should do!
"What brings you here?"
As Su Chen was walking down the path, a graceful figure came toward him. It was Gu Yunyan.
"Do you realize you’ve stirred up a huge disaster?"
Gu Yunyan came up and said straight out.
Hearing this, Su Chen laughed and said:
"I’m perfectly fine, how did that turn into some huge disaster?"
"Isn’t it all because you killed Xu Ting!"
Seeing how he still acted like it was nothing, Gu Yunyan spoke irritably.
"Since he wanted to kill me, me killing him is only natural, no?"
Su Chen’s words were also taken for granted.
"In theory, yes, but this Xu Ting isn’t that simple!"
Gu Yunyan said:
"He was Wu Che’s spokesman in the Outer Sect, or rather, he was one of Wu Che’s dogs. But when you hit a dog, you still have to look at its master."
"This Wu Che is very powerful?"
Su Chen tilted his head slightly and asked casually.
"Very powerful!"
Compared to Su Chen’s casualness, Gu Yunyan was much more solemn.
Because Wu Che was truly very strong!
She wasn’t the least bit surprised that Su Chen could kill Xu Ting and He Tang. After all, he had even slain the Ni Family’s Family Head!
The key point was that Wu Che’s strength was much greater than the Ni Family’s Family Head’s!
"Strictly speaking, this whole thing is trouble I brought to you."
Gu Yunyan said apologetically:
"I’m really sorry. I never thought it would turn out like this!"
Gu Yunyan wasn’t stupid. Su Chen had only been in Lingwu Sect for just over ten days. How could he, out of nowhere, have provoked Xu Ting?
Thinking of the relationship between Xu Ting and Wu Che, and the fact that Wu Che had been pursuing her for the last two years, the answer was obvious!
It must have been that incident where she accompanied Su Chen that day, which got used by He Tang!
She just hadn’t expected that such a simple little matter could escalate into this.
Moreover, Wu Che’s terrifying side wasn’t just his own strength. He also had many followers. People like Xu Ting were far from rare!
"This isn’t your fault. But it seems that Wu Che fellow is quite serious about you."
Su Chen chuckled, teasing as he spoke.
Gu Yunyan honestly didn’t know if this guy had a big heart or no heart—at a time like this he could still joke!
Originally, even if Wu Che misunderstood, she could still clarify that there was nothing between her and this Su Chen, that they merely knew each other.
Although she still felt nothing for Wu Che in terms of romance between a man and a woman, saying that might still resolve Su Chen’s trouble!
But now it was different!
Xu Ting was dead!
Perhaps Wu Che wouldn’t take Xu Ting himself too seriously—like she’d said, he was just a dog!
The key point was, if he had killed Xu Ting himself, it’d be fine. But if someone else killed him, then it became a big problem!
That was a matter of face and dignity!
How could Wu Che possibly allow someone to provoke him like this?!
Gu Yunyan was truly worried, which was why she couldn’t help but come find Su Chen, if only to make sure he understood how serious this was.
"Perfect timing, I was just about to grab a bite. Want to come along?"
Su Chen changed the subject, smiling as he asked.
"No need. Just be careful these next few days!"
Gu Yunyan once again warned him solemnly.
Her coming over today was already a bit rash. To avoid bringing Su Chen even more trouble, she decided she wouldn’t have any contact with him for a while after this.
She had already decided—if it really came down to that moment, she would fight side by side with Su Chen. With the two of their strength, there might not be no chance!
Of course, she hoped things wouldn’t ever go that far!
...
After Gu Yunyan left, Su Chen went to the cafeteria alone, ate something, and then came back.
As for matters pertaining to Wu Che and the like, he didn’t take them to heart at all.
Rather than waste time worrying about that, he might as well use it to increase his own strength!
What he urgently needed to do now was to fully comprehend the third move of the Dayan Sword Technique, "Formless and Invisible." At the moment, he had already grasped most of it, and figured he’d probably master it in another two or three days!
In addition, there was the Taboo Techniques in the new Chapter of the Laws Forbidden Tome, which was much harder than "Formless and Invisible" and would require much more time!
...
"Divine Sense Attack?"
In a grand hall somewhere, a middle-aged man looked up at the sky and murmured to himself:
"Looks like in that test the other day, that young man still held back quite a lot."
Although his expression was calm, when he first received this news two or three days ago, his heart had surged with towering waves!
So much so that even now, the aftershocks still hadn’t faded!
He naturally knew how powerful one’s spiritual power had to be to directly launch a Divine Sense Attack!
Even in the Cangxuan Territory, those who could do this were extremely rare!
And without exception, all of them were those old monsters!
Let alone a Divine Sense Attack—just being able to cause Divine Sense Disturbance was something not many people could do!
There were indeed some whose spiritual power met the requirement, but on top of that, you also needed a Cultivation Technique in that aspect!
That was what made it so hard!
"Mu Yue, do you think I should intervene?"
The middle-aged man turned his head and glanced at the woman behind him who was sipping tea as he spoke.
This woman was the same one who had played a game of chess with him in the pavilion a few days ago.
The woman gave a faint smile. She knew that the Sect Master had specially invited her here today, most likely for that young man’s sake.
Then, she lightly parted her red lips and said:
"Better not."
Hearing this, a look of curiosity appeared on the middle-aged man’s face.
The woman seemed to read his thoughts:
"I want to see how he performs next."
"Mu Yue, you’re not thinking of choosing him, are you?"
Something seemed to occur to the middle-aged man, and he blurted it out.
But right after saying it, he immediately shook his head and said:
"That’s impossible, impossible!"
"Why impossible?"
The woman smiled charmingly, an indescribable grace about her!
The middle-aged man’s expression changed drastically. He walked over and sat down opposite her:
"Don’t even mention whether that young man can pass this hurdle. Even if he does, he’s still far from having that kind of qualification, isn’t he?"
"I also believe this person’s future is limitless, but that’s in the future. Right now, there’s not much time left, it’s too late!"
"If he really manages to get past Wu Che, then I’ll have reason to believe he truly can create a miracle!"
The woman pushed a cup of tea over to him and smiled faintly:
"The timing is tight, yes, but there’s still a year, isn’t there?"
"Can you tell me why?"
The middle-aged man was still somewhat puzzled.
Hearing this, the woman’s beautiful eyes fell on the teacup before her, watching the tea leaves rise and sink within:
"I have no other choice left."
"Rather than choose those whose strength can be clearly seen, I’d rather choose him. At the very least, I can’t see through him."
"If I can’t see through him, that means there’s a chance!"
