20-Year Blade Cultivation Technique, Analysis, and Shock

"Is his strength this weak?"

Su Chen knew Song Yuan's strength was at the peak of Houtian, not yet Xiantian.

Although he knew the opponent was no match for him, he was still a bit bewildered by how easily he had dealt with him.

Why didn't he assassinate him earlier?

It was because Su Chen couldn't perform the assassin's technique of a single, fatal blow.

He would definitely be discovered, so it was better to fight head-on.

Therefore, when they clashed...

Su Chen went all out from the start.

He used the Ice Qilin Arm he had obtained.

But after the fight, he realized...

The power unleashed by the Ice Qilin Arm when propelled by his internal energy was too immense.

The opponent merely said "So cold" before dying.

[Host's first kill in this life, reward: One-time Skill Card: 20-year Blade Cultivation Technique, 3 White Draw Cards.]

"Hmm! A one-time skill card, 20-year Blade Cultivation Technique."

Su Chen had expected some other reward and was surprised to only receive this.

A one-time skill card.

It was obvious it could only be used once.

"But 3 White Draw Cards are good. Adding to the previous 6, I'll have 9 White Draw Cards if I complete this body's revenge mission."

"Maybe I can draw 2 White Draw Cards first!"

Su Chen thought to himself.

At this moment, throughout the Song manor...

Because of the commotion earlier...

The lights in the entire courtyard began to gradually light up.

Some people were quickly rushing towards this area.

Su Chen sensed people approaching and instantly flashed out of the room, leaping away.

Although he could easily deal with these people, there was no need.

After all, someone might make a move against him tonight, so it was best to return quickly.

His return was swift.

In a short while, Su Chen returned to his room.

He changed into a set of black clothes and quickly hid himself.

He then lay down directly on the bed.

"Is this the world of martial arts?"

Killing for the first time, and killing a martial artist with a single punch, Su Chen felt a passionate surge within him.

The world of martial arts, where grievances are repaid swiftly.

It was just like this.

The suppressed feelings he had been forced to endure were released at this moment.

Su Chen drifted off to sleep.

But not long after, Su Chen's eyes snapped open.

A black figure appeared outside the window.

The person stood outside the window, not entering the small courtyard.

Lying on the bed, Su Chen's eyes narrowed slightly, and his mind became vigilant.

He didn't know why the other person was standing by the window.

Time ticked by.

The person remained motionless. Su Chen, lying on the bed, continued to feign sleep.

After a while, the figure quietly departed.

After the other person left...

Su Chen opened his eyes: "Who was that person, what did they want? Why did they just stand there motionlessly?"

For a moment, Su Chen couldn't fathom the other person's intentions.

However, now that they were gone.

Su Chen's previously taut nerves relaxed.

But at this moment, he wasn't sleepy anymore.

No longer sleepy, Su Chen thought of the white lottery cards.

He decided to use two white lottery cards first to see what he would get.

He directly opened the two lottery cards.

[Received 2 bottles of Qi and Blood Pills, received 1 3-cubic meter Space Ring.]

Two white lottery cards, giving Su Chen rewards like these.

Two bottles of medicine and a ring appeared in his hand.

He put the ring on his finger.

Then he put the two bottles of medicine inside as well.

Afterward, he got up and put all the night-walking clothes and shoes he had worn out today into the ring.

Hiding them anywhere was not as useful as putting them in the space ring.

"It's just that the space in this space ring is a bit small, but it has temporarily solved some of my troubles."

Su Chen thought to himself.

He wasn't living alone now, and there were too many people around.

Many things would reveal his secrets.

Having this item made things much more convenient.

At this moment.

The black shadow that had previously left Su Chen appeared in the pavilion in the backyard.

The black shadow that had just gone to Su Chen's courtyard was none other than Shangguan Ziyun.

After shedding her black attire, Shangguan Ziyun frowned slightly.

"Is his alertness that poor? I stood outside his window for so long and he didn't notice?"

"However, if Su Mengbai's death is truly related to the Fifth-grade Lotus Platform, then as his only son, and returning at this time, he might know information about the Fifth-grade Lotus Platform."

"In that case, he cannot die yet. The Fifth-grade Lotus Platform is very useful to me!"

Shangguan Ziyun said in a deep voice.

Then she returned to her bed.

Compared to the tranquility of the Su Manor.

The Song Manor outside was crowded with many people.

Song Yuan's death quickly reached Ling Tianhe. Ling Tianhe, along with two other confidants, rushed to Song Yuan's mansion.

Upon seeing Song Yuan's condition.

The middle-aged man beside Ling Tianhe quickly investigated the cause of Song Yuan's death.

When his hand touched Song Yuan's body.

A biting coldness surged from Song Yuan's body into his palm.

It forced him to quickly withdraw his hand.

However, a layer of frost appeared on the palm that had just touched Song Yuan's body.

"Such powerful cold energy!"

The middle-aged man summoned a surge of internal energy, dispelling the cold energy.

The middle-aged man was named Lu Wencang, a martial artist who had just entered the Early Innate Stage.

He was the strongest among Ling Tianhe's three confidants.

Seeing this situation, Ling Tianhe and Jiang Chendong's expressions were shocked.

"Deputy楼主, Steward Song was frozen to death, his heart meridians shattered. Judging from his expression before death and the scene in the room, the assailant acted very quickly. Steward Song had no power to resist."

"Furthermore, the cold energy left in Steward Song's body by the assailant is exceptionally domineering. Judging from this cold energy, the assailant's strength is terrifying!"

Lu Wencang took a deep breath and said.

Hearing Lu Wencang's words, Jiang Chendong, who was standing nearby, looked surprised.

His heart grew more uneasy. Song Yuan's strength was not much different from his own.

If that person had attacked him.

He would probably end up like Song Yuan.

However, upon hearing Lu Wencang's words, Ling Tianhe's expression turned grim.

He walked over to Song Yuan's side and extended his palm.

A purple internal energy appeared on his palm and slowly pressed onto Song Yuan's body. He wanted to personally feel the cold energy.

After a moment.

A cold air also emanated from the purple inner energy in his palm.

He then withdrew his hand.

His face was filled with extreme shock.

From the time Song Yuan died until they arrived.

Although it wasn't long, it also wasn't a short period.

However, the cold air the other party left on Song Yuan had still not dissipated.

It could even erode his inner energy; the opponent's strength was too terrifying.

He stood up and said in a deep voice, "When the楼主 died, I investigated. Based on the traces, the楼主 was killed by a sword piercing his heart, giving him no chance to react."

"It was definitely a seasoned assassin who made the kill, but with Song Yuan, it's a bit strange."

"Is it a warning to us, or is it meant to make us panic?"

Ling Tianhe felt a sense of terror at this moment.

"Has there been any progress on the news that spread on the black market today?"

As the Deputy楼主 of the Golden Wind Fine Rain Tower, he naturally knew about the news that had spread on the black market that day.

"No progress, but this subordinate finds it very strange. What is the purpose of the person who spread this news?"

"If the original poster truly obtained the Fifth-grade Lotus Platform before his death, then these people should be thinking of taking it for themselves, not making it known to everyone now," Lu Wencang said.

"Could it be that it's not one group of people fighting over the Fifth-grade Lotus Platform? Is the other party killing people now to warn us to hand over the Fifth-grade Lotus Platform?" Jiang Chendong said from the side.

"That's entirely possible. If that's the case, then we're in trouble."

Ling Tianhe's expression turned grim and solemn.

They had no idea about the news of the Fifth-grade Lotus Platform at all.

"Do you think Su Chen knows about the Fifth-grade Lotus Platform? Otherwise, why would he come back at this time!"

"Perhaps it's because he has this as a fallback that he's so calm!" Jiang Chendong spoke.

He knew how Su Chen had acted in the Yuchun Courtyard; his mind showed no tension whatsoever.
