The old man looked at the twelve kneeling patriarchs, his face deathly pale, and stammered, "How... how could he... be so terrifying?"
At this moment, he was filled with despair, and he could see no hope of living. He was not the only one; everyone in the room felt the same way.
Su Chen's terrifying power filled everyone present with despair!
An elder suddenly glared at the old man and roared, "You bastard! How dare you provoke such a terrifying being! I'm absolutely furious!"
He practically shouted those words.
The other elders and everyone from the Divine Tomb Clan also glared at the old man with resentment, some even flashing with murderous intent.
If it weren't for the old man, how could the Divine Tomb Clan have offended Su Chen?
That old man deserves to die!
The old man lowered his head, not daring to meet the eyes of the people from the Divine Tomb Clan. His fists were clenched, and his whole body trembled.
sinner!
He became a sinner of the Divine Tomb Clan!
If it weren't for Su Chen's suppression, he would have wanted to self-destruct immediately.
Because he simply couldn't bear to live any longer!
Su Chen's gaze fell on the old man. He slowly took a step forward and calmly said, "Looking for me?"
Buzz!
A sword light flashed across the arena, and in an instant, tens of thousands of heads shot into the sky. This scene was like a dazzling red firework, beautiful yet terrifying.
Upon witnessing this scene, all members of the Divine Tomb Clan trembled violently, their breathing became rapid as if they were about to suffocate, and the fear in their eyes was almost overflowing.
One sword!
A single sword strike instantly killed tens of thousands of powerful warriors!
Holy crap!
The twelve patriarchs were also terrified; their bodies stiffened, as if frozen in place by fear, unable to move.
The old man slowly raised his head, looking at the tens of thousands of heads. His eyes widened, his lips were tightly closed, and his eyes revealed disbelief.
At this moment, his heart was bleeding. You must know that the tens of thousands of people that Su Chen killed were the core members of the Divine Tomb Clan. He had spent countless hours and resources to cultivate these people, but now, they were all dead before his eyes!
At this moment, Su Chen took another step forward and coldly said, "Tear me to pieces?"
Buzz!
Another sword light flashed across the arena, followed by hundreds of thousands of heads shooting into the sky!
Hundreds of thousands of heads floated in the sky; this time, it was more magnificent and more terrifying than before!
Every face was filled with boundless fear!
From then on, only the twelve patriarchs and the old man remained in the arena.
The twelve patriarchs were now terrified.
That's terrifying!
That's so cruel!
They never expected Su Chen to be so ruthless, killing hundreds of thousands of people without a moment's hesitation!
He's absolutely devilish!
The old man's face was pale, tears welled in his eyes, and his gaze was filled with confusion and endless regret.
The Divine Tomb Clan was truly destroyed by him!
It was all ruined by him!
Sudden!
Su Chen took another step forward.
The old man's breath caught in his throat. He looked at Su Chen, shaking his head frantically, his eyes pleading, "No, please don't!"
Su Chen ignored the old man and calmly said, "Take my soul and turn it into a soul lamp, let it burn for countless eons?"
Buzz!
The sound of swords rang out, and the twelve patriarchs' eyes widened, their faces filled with resentment. Then, their heads rose into the sky from their bodies!
The old man was struck dumb, his entire body frozen in place like a statue.
"Gone... all gone..." The old man lowered his head, repeating these words over and over.
At this moment, he suddenly looked up at Su Chen, his eyes filled with boundless hatred, and roared, "You devil, if you want to kill someone, just kill me! Why are you killing my Divine Tomb Clan? What did they do wrong!"
The sound was very loud; it could be heard for miles around.
Su Chen stood with his hands behind his back, his expression calm and revealing no emotion. He said indifferently, "Please understand, they died because of you."
Die because of me?
The old man was pale, his eyes filled with confusion. "Yes, it seems they really did die because of me. The Divine Tomb Clan was destroyed because of me, destroyed because of me... poof!"
The old man suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, then burst into laughter, "Hahaha! The Divine Tomb Clan was destroyed because of me! Hahahaha..."
He was laughing when his voice suddenly stopped, and he collapsed to the ground, his life force vanishing completely at that moment.
He died with his eyes wide open in disbelief!
Su Chen glanced calmly at the old man, then turned and left.
Lower Immortal Realm.
Su Chen returned to Ye Lingxi's side, and Ye Lingxi had already woken up.
Ye Lingxi asked blankly, "Brother, what just happened?"
Su Chen looked at Ye Lingxi, smiled slightly, then reached out and patted Ye Lingxi head, saying softly, "It's alright."
Ye Lingxi rolled her eyes. "Oh~"
She's not stupid; she must know what just happened, otherwise she wouldn't have suddenly lost consciousness. However, since Su Chen didn't want to talk about it, she wouldn't ask anymore.
Su Chen smiled and said, " Lingxi is so good."
"Hehe." Ye Lingxi chuckled.
The two chatted like that for a while.
Su Chen suddenly said, "From now on, you'll have to walk your own path."
Ye Lingxi's face stiffened, and she said in a panic, "Brother, you don't want me anymore?"
As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes, as if she were about to burst into tears.
Su Chen shook his head. "How could I not want you?"
Ye Lingxi asked, feeling wronged, "Then why?"
Su Chen didn't answer immediately, but instead asked, "Is your goal to surpass me?"
Ye Lingxi nodded without hesitation, "Okay!"
Su Chen said, "Since you want to surpass me, you can't stay by my side forever. If you stay by my side, you'll become dependent on me, and if you become dependent, you'll never be able to surpass me in this lifetime."
After hearing Su Chen's words, Ye Lingxi remained silent.
Su Chen continued, "Only by experiencing various hardships and countless life-and-death situations can a person progress and become stronger. If you stay by my side, you will never experience hardships and life-and-death situations. Without experiencing hardships and life-and-death situations, how can you become stronger? How can you surpass me?"
Ye Lingxi remained silent and did not speak.
Looking at Ye Lingxi, Su Chen smiled slightly, "However, if you don't want to surpass me, that's okay too. I'll protect you."
Ye Lingxi clenched her fists and shook her head, "No!"
Su Chen smiled and asked, "Why?"
Ye Lingxi replied, "I don't want to hide behind you forever, I want to protect you!"
"Hahaha!" Su Chen laughed loudly, "Brother believes in you!"
Ye Lingxi nodded emphatically, "Mmm!"
As she spoke, she suddenly threw herself into Su Chen's arms, fighting back tears, and said in a trembling voice, "Then... then I'm leaving."
Su Chen smiled and reached out to ruffle Ye Lingxi's hair. "No rush, I'll teach you a sword technique before we leave!"
Ye Lingxi looked up at Su Chen and blinked, "What sword technique is it?"
Su Chen smiled slightly, then pointed a finger at Ye Lingxi's brow.
Ye Lingxi suddenly felt a new memory appear in her mind.
