Su Chen had intended to communicate with them properly, but the two were completely unyielding. Since persuasion failed, he had no choice but to resort to force.

Huang Ying, standing to the side, immediately looked panicked.

She never expected that Su Chen would be so decisive, killing the person so easily.

"Senior, this..."

Huang Ying's voice trembled slightly, and her face was filled with despair. Originally, she only needed to go to Xiangfeng Tower, and she could leave when she found an opportunity later.

But Su Chen killed both of them, and this debt will inevitably be settled with her.

And Su Chen will definitely die.

Although Su Chen does seem to have some influence, the Wang Family is no ordinary family either. They can run shady businesses in Qingluan City, so they must have powerful backers.

And this powerful backer is none other than Yang Wuhao, the Lord of Qingluan City.

With its official backing, Qingluan City can be considered the most terrifying force in the entire Ping Xuan Empire.

Given this calculation, how could Su Chen possibly contend with the Wang Family?

Su Chen asked calmly, "How is it?"

Huang Ying's lips were trembling, and she felt like she was about to cry. She understood that Su Chen was helping her, and at this moment she couldn't bring herself to say anything to blame him.

Finally, she let out a deep sigh.

"My lord, you should leave quickly. The Wang Family has a powerful background. My daughter is very grateful for your help, but she doesn't want to involve them in my feud."

She has resigned herself to her fate.

Over the years, I've lived a tiring life.

Shortly after her birth, her mother died in an accident, while her father was addicted to gambling, even selling off all his possessions, including his Cultivation Method and weapons.

Later, Huang Ying's investigation revealed that her mother had also perished while searching for rare and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to help her father pay off his debts.

From that moment on, she hated her father.

Because she had no one to rely on since childhood, Huang Ying had to rely on herself for everything. As a result, she suffered cold looks and humiliation from a young age. It was only with great difficulty that her Cultivation Level gradually improved and she broke through to the True Immortal Realm.

Just when she thought her good days were drawing Yuelai closer, that damned father dragged her down with him again.

Does my life truly have meaning?

Huang Ying felt utterly hopeless.

Sometimes, ending it all might not be such a bad choice.

She just didn't want anything to happen to Su Chen before she died.

From childhood to adulthood, very few people were kind to her; almost everyone saw her as easy to bully and wanted to take advantage of her.

Although she and Su Chen didn't know each other well, he was definitely the friendliest person to her.

At least they're still willing to help me.

Su Chen looked at him silently without saying a word. He was too lazy to explain many things, nor was there any need to.

Just then, many people around noticed what was happening and looked at Su Chen with shocked expressions.

"Those two people just now must have been Wang Ming and Wang Yi from the Wang Family, right? Who is this person who dared to kill them both?"

"These two young men are doomed. They were the Wang Family's messengers, practically the face of the Wang Family. If they're killed, the Wang Family will never let them off the hook."

"Impulsive, far too impulsive."

The expressions on everyone's faces were extremely solemn at the sight of Su Chen's act of killing.

The Wang Family is renowned in Qingluan City, and few dare to provoke them. Because they have the City Lord behind them, even the other two quasi-immortal Immortal Emperor Level forces will give them some face.

However, now someone dares to slap the Wang Family in the face.

"Judging from his demeanor, he must have some connections. Why did he have to provoke the Wang Family? Now, the people behind him might suffer as well."

"He dared to kill even a member of the Wang Family; he's probably not from Qingluan City, but perhaps a young master from some other powerful force."

"So he's just an ignorant brat. He dares to kill people so casually in this Qing Tian Realm. He's got some nerve."

Many people looked at Su Chen with cold smiles.

Qingluan City isn't bad even within the entire Ping Xuan Empire, so for Su Chen to start killing people in the city right away without even doing any prior research is indeed a bit too reckless.

Just then, the oppressive aura of an Immortal Lord powerhouse swept in from afar and then suddenly pressed down on Su Chen.

"Who dares to harm a member of the Wang Family!"

As the voice rang out, a man dressed in a blue robe with a square face appeared above.

His eyes were filled with a chilling killing intent, and when he looked at Su Chen, it was as if he were looking at a dead man.

So many years have passed.

For a long time now, no one in Qingluan City has dared to provoke the Wang Family.

Wang Ming and Wang Yi have worked for the Wang Family for many years and are both direct descendants of the clan. Although they are peripheral direct descendants, they still hold a relatively high status in terms of Bloodline.

Seeing this, none of the people around had any intention of leaving.

In their view, Su Chen could be subdued in an instant, without even making a ripple.

Wang Qi's face was grim. He looked at Su Chen and said in a chilling tone, "So it was you who killed members of my Wang Family?"

He was unaware of what had just happened here; he only knew that Wang Ming and the other man had perished, so he rushed over as quickly as possible.

Su Chen's expression was calm and composed, even with a hint of mockery at the corners of his mouth. He directly admitted, "That's right."

Um?

Su Chen's straightforwardness immediately surprised Wang Qi, especially seeing the lack of panic on his face and the slight reduction in his previously domineering aura.

To kill members of his Wang Family like this and show no fear—could he be someone with a powerful background?

Although the Wang Family is powerful, they are not someone that anyone can provoke. Offending an Immortal Emperor Level force for the sake of Wang Ming and his companion would bring them no benefit.

Thinking of this, Wang Qi looked at Su Chen again and carefully examined the other party's Cultivation Level.

But soon, he let out a cold snort.

Su Chen's Cultivation Level fluctuations were very weak, probably because he was wearing some kind of magical Magical Treasure to conceal his Cultivation Level. As Yuelai and more people gathered around him, his expression grew increasingly gloomy.

This matter concerns Wang Jian's reputation, so it cannot be easily let Past.

Moreover, Su Chen's attitude was very firm. If he continued to be weak, others would think that the Wang Family was easy to bully.

"Boy, the two people you killed were Direct Line of my Wang Family. If you can't give me an explanation today, I'm afraid I'll have to let you die here."

Wang Qi's voice was extremely cold, as if he were about to kill Su Chen at any moment.

Under normal circumstances, he would have attacked immediately, but this time he didn't kill Su Chen right away, simply because Su Chen's attitude was somewhat forceful.

If they didn't have Trump Cards to counter the Wang Family, they wouldn't have this mindset.

Therefore, he is now giving Su Chen the opportunity to demonstrate his powerful backing. If Su Chen fails to make the Wang Family wary, he will make Su Chen suffer a terrible death today.
