Chapter 520: Chapter 281: The Anomaly of Yongzhou
County
Zhaoxi Town, one of the Thirty-Two Families, belonged to the Ge family.
The small town was not peaceful under the night.
News of a suspected outsider’s arrival quickly spread, which was definitely a big deal for this world that had not seen outsiders for hundreds of years.
Many people were skeptical at first, but the intervention of the Ge family confirmed the identity of the outsider.
“Catch him! Don’t let him escape!”
“Xuan-Level Monster Scripture Bloodline! He has a Xuan-Level monster scripture and bloodline on him.”
On the street, a young man with an ordinary appearance frantically fled, pursued by a large number of martial artists several hundred meters behind him.
Soon, both the fugitive and the pursuers left the town.
Nobody noticed that in an alley, two people in a carriage silently watched everything unfold.
“Young Master, what do you intend to do?” Chen Ying asked, puzzled as to why Su Nan would do such a thing.
“You wouldn’t understand even if I told you. Let’s continue on our way,” Su Nan replied indifferently.
Chen Ying pouted and stopped asking further questions, continuing to drive the carriage toward the Daxuan Kingdom’s Royal City.
Four hours later.
As the carriage stopped, Chen Ying looked ahead with a worried expression as an old man blocked their path, her face serious.
“Chen Daohai, did you kill Old Huang?” The old man questioned.
“Old Huang?” Su Nan stepped out of the carriage and looked at the old man. “If you’re talking about that Old Huang, the one who wanted to protect the Ma family, then I should be the one who killed him.”
“Did you really kill him?” The old man’s expression changed, as Su Nan’s direct admission was completely unexpected.
He then sank into deep thought. Old Huang and he were both at the Early Stage Xuan Level, but compared to Old Huang, who only had a Great Accomplishment bloodline, he had already reached a Bloodline Great Perfection. Even so, killing Old Huang would be extremely difficult for him.
But Su Nan had killed Old Huang, and the difference in their abilities had been determined.
“Chen Daohai, you killed my Li family’s Clan Elder. You must give me an explanation today,” Knowing he might not be a match for Su Nan, the old man’s attitude softened, but he didn’t seem overly frightened, as he had the support of the Li family behind him!
“Explanation? What kind of explanation do you want? How about I send you to meet Old Huang?” Su Nan proposed.
“You…” The old man was indignant, and retorted, “Ignorant youngster, do you really think you can do as you please just because you’ve had the luck of breaking through the Xuan Rank? Today, I’ll make you understand what it means that ‘there’s always someone better out there’!”
With a flash, the old man appeared in front of Su Nan and threw a punch, trying to kill Su Nan with a single strike.
Without dodging or flinching, Su Nan stared calmly at the old man, stretching out his palm, and directly grabbed the old man’s fist.
“This…” Being grabbed by Su Nan, the old man’s face changed dramatically, a cold sensation running down his spine in an instant.
At this moment, his fist couldn’t move at all, and even withdrawing seemed impossible.
The old man immediately understood that Su Nan’s strength far exceeded his own!
Not having time to think further, the old man immediately raised his other fist and struck at Su Nan, hoping to take advantage and pull back his captured fist.
But as soon as he made a move, a ball of flame suddenly erupted from Su Nan’s hand.
Before the old man could react, the flame engulfed his entire body, turning him into a human torch.
“Ahh!” The old man screamed, struggling to extinguish the flames on his body.
However, not only were the flames incredibly hot, they were also burning his bloodline power. As his bloodline power fed the flames, they burned even brighter.
Within moments, the Bloodline Power inside him was completely consumed.
Without any bloodline power to fight against the scorching heat, the flames eventually reduced the old man to ashes.
[Congratulations, you have completed the daily task “Resist Li Family’s Capture”, and have been awarded 30 Demon Points.]
[Current available demonic power: 14.6 points]
With the task completed, Su Nan returned to the carriage as if nothing had happened.
Chen Ying stared blankly at everything and only after a while found her composure. “Yo-young Master, what kind of realm are you in? Are you a Peak of Xuan-level expert?”
Chen Ying was both shocked and expectant, as she was genuinely surprised this time.
Although she already knew that her young master could defeat martial artists of the same level, she couldn’t have imagined how easily Su Nan could defeat a Xuan-level expert.
At this moment, in Chen Ying’s eyes, Su Nan had already become a Late Xuan Stage or even a Peak of Xuan-level powerful person.
“Didn’t you see? I’m just at the Early Stage Xuan Level,” Su Nan said.
Upon hearing this, Chen Ying couldn’t help but grumble under her breath, “If you don’t want to say it, then don’t!”
Little did she know, Su Nan really was at the Early Stage Xuan Level.
The two continued on their journey.
With the demise of the second Clan Elder, the Li family quickly noticed something was amiss.
“Old Huang has lost contact, and now Old Yu has lost contact too! This absolutely cannot be a coincidence. It seems they have both encountered misfortune!”
Although they didn’t want to admit it, they knew what the loss of contact meant.
“It shouldn’t be. Even if Chen Daohai had good luck and broke through to the Xuan Rank, he would still only be at the Early Stage Xuan Level. How did he manage to consecutively defeat Old Huang and Old Yu?”
“Could he have obtained some powerful treasure?”
“That’s the only possibility, otherwise it can’t be explained!”
In the room, several elders fell silent for a moment, their eyes flashing with eagerness and desire.
With a treasure capable of allowing an Early Stage Xuan Level martial artist to easily kill two experts with far superior strength, how far could their own strength advance if they obtained it?
