I'll charge you with whatever crime I please
Su Wanggui glanced at Su Chen, then asked coldly:
"Whose faction are you? Do you think you can interfere in my affairs?"
Su Chen remained calm. "I don't belong to any of those lineages."
"Kid, I advise you to get lost and not cause trouble for yourself."
Behind Su Wanggui was another person dressed in fine clothes. He was also a Direct Line descendant of the family, but his status was not as high as Su Wanggui's, so he was considered Su Wanggui's little follower.
Certainly.
They're not stupid.
Su Chen possessed an extraordinary demeanor, undoubtedly Direct Line of the Su Family, so they didn't immediately try to harm Su Chen, only issuing a verbal warning.
Zhou Erpu looked at Su Chen with eyes full of gratitude, knowing that the other man was standing up for him.
After a moment's thought, he couldn't help but transmit his voice:
"My lord, thank you for saving our lives today, but Su Wanggui holds a very high position within the Within the Su Family. It's completely unnecessary for us to offend him."
Although Zhou Erpu had considered the possibility that Su Chen's status might be very high, what were the chances of that happening?
Actually, it's very low!
Although his father was an elder of the Su Family, his status was still below that of the Direct Line, and he was able to be killed by Su Wanggui's faction without the Su Family making any reaction.
This is enough to illustrate the point.
The Su Family did not value his father that much.
Therefore, rationally speaking, even if Su Chen holds some position within the Within the Su Family, it is definitely not very high.
At least in Zhou Erpu's opinion, he was definitely not as good as Su Wanggui.
Zhou Erpu's voice was filled with despair and helplessness. "I will never forget your kindness today. If there is an afterlife, I am willing to serve you like a slave to repay your life-saving grace."
Su Chen turned his head away, glanced indifferently at Zhou Erpu, and then looked directly at Su Wanggui. He spoke in a detached tone:
"What if I don't? What can you do about it?"
After all, he was still the Head of the Su Family. Although the family had grown much larger, it was inevitable that there would be some corrupt elements. However, Su Chen did not want the Su Family to deteriorate to this extent.
If that's the case, it would be better to just dismiss everyone.
In Su Chen's view, Lineage is a group of people who are close by Bloodline and come together to help each other, rather than fight each other.
Although Zhou Erpu is not of the Su Family Bloodline, Su Wanggui's behavior shows that the situation within the Within the Su Family has deteriorated to an extreme degree.
"Court death!"
Before Su Wanggui could speak, Su Nanming, standing beside him, preemptively said in a chilling tone, "Young Master Wanggui has already given you a chance. Since you insist on courting death, then take them all down."
The others all looked at Su Chen with amusement.
They all knew the people with high positions in the core of the Su Family. Although Su Chen had an extraordinary demeanor, he did not wear the Token of Direct Line at his waist.
From this, it is not difficult to deduce that Su Chen's status and position are definitely not very high.
They were either peripheral members of the Direct Line or members of Collateral Line.
However, none of these characters could possibly rival Su Wanggui.
Su Nanming angrily shouted, "This brat has committed insubordination and dared to talk back to Su Wanggui. His crime is unforgivable. Throw him into the Dungeon!"
The two men, who were originally heading towards Zhou Erpu, immediately changed direction and walked towards Su Chen with sinister smiles on their faces.
Zhou Erpu with panic. He hurriedly said, "Young Master Wang Gui, this person was just passing by. Please don't make things difficult for him."
Su Wanggui sneered and said indifferently, "What I do is none of your business."
At that very moment.
Facing the two lackeys approaching him, Su Chen remained completely calm and said coldly:
"I remember that the head of the Su Family's Enforcement Hall is Su Kongshan. He harmed his own clansmen. Does that mean you can completely disregard the Su Family Lineage Rules?"
"Presumptuous!"
Su Nanming roared, "Who gave you permission to address the Ancestor by his given name?"
After he finished speaking, the anger on his face dissipated, replaced by extreme sarcasm.
"I thought you were a direct Direct Line, but it turns out you're just a Collateral Line. You don't even know such basic things."
"Ancestor Su Kongshan has long since retired into seclusion. My Grandfather is now in charge of the Enforcement Hall, so I can convict you of whatever crime I want."
The others couldn't help but laugh when they heard this.
"Hahaha, this kid was just putting on an act. Judging from his appearance, I thought he was some young master from a wealthy family, but it turns out he doesn't even know about the Inner Court's Direct Line."
"I reckon he's not even from Collateral Line. Look, he doesn't even have the Jade Pendant that signifies his status as a member of the Su Family. Could he just be a Servants?"
"Don't say that. There are also some outsiders in the Within the Su Family who hold extremely high positions."
"This kid doesn't even know the basics of the Direct Line. If he's from a different clan, how high could his status be?"
Su Chen watched them talk back and forth, his eyes filled with disappointment.
The Su Family is really in a mess!
These descendants really disappointed him.
Su Chen didn't expect all of the Su Family descendants to be talented, but he never imagined they would be this rotten.
Now.
Two henchmen also walked up to Su Chen. They cracked their knuckles, and one of them said with a mocking smile:
"Kid, I advise you to behave and not try to resist, or you'll get hurt."
That's all.
Both of them released their inner energy, and the oppressive aura of the Heavenly Immortal realm caused Zhou Erpu and his companion to tremble, their faces filled with fear.
Zhou Erpu hurriedly transmitted his voice, saying, "Sir, please leave quickly. Our deaths are insignificant, but please don't let us implicate you."
Su Chen didn't speak, but simply stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the two of them with an expressionless face.
Seeing that the two still maintained their nonchalant demeanor, their eyes immediately revealed displeasure. Normally, Su Chen should have been afraid and terrified.
"Boy, kneel down."
One of them raised his hand, ready to strike Su Chen directly, but before his fist could even touch Su Chen, he was shot out like a cannonball.
"Bang!"
He crashed onto the street not far away, leaving a Deep Pit in which the man was barely breathing, on the verge of death.
What!
The expressions of the people in the Courtyard changed immediately. Su Chen's aura was unremarkable, but they did not expect that he could defeat Heavenly Immortal realm so easily.
This person is at least True Immortal or Profound Immortal in Cultivation Level.
Many people around couldn't help but gather around when they saw what was happening.
"Hey, isn't this Su Bin Su Wanggui's attendant? Who would dare lay a hand on him? Wouldn't that be a slap in the face to young master Wanggui?"
"They're really courting death. Everyone knows Su Wanggui is extremely protective of his own in the Within the Su Family. Anyone who messes with him probably won't survive."
"Look over there, isn't that the Zhou family grandfather and grandson? Could it be Zhou Erpu who did this? But that doesn't make sense, he doesn't have that kind of power."
