Duan Qiancang's face was now unrecognizable. His nose was crooked to one side, blood was gushing from his nasal cavity, his lips were cracked, and several teeth were missing, which were scattered around him with blood. His eyes were so swollen that he could hardly open them. It was a truly miserable sight.
It's a terrible sight!
Even Ye Ningshuang, who was standing to the side, couldn't bear to watch this scene.
That's absolutely brutal!
Su Chen tossed Duan Qiancang aside and looked at him with icy eyes, "I thought you were a smart person, but it turns out you're just like this. It's really disappointing."
Duan Qiancang struggled to his feet, enduring the pain as he sat back in the rocking chair. He then looked at Su Chen and weakly said, "If you're disappointed, then get out! What are you still doing here?"
Su Chen said coldly, "What a waste. All he knows is drinking to drown his sorrows. He deserves to never get revenge in his lifetime."
Upon hearing this, Duan Qiancang seemed to have been hit where it hurt, and angrily retorted, "What do you know!"
Su Chen calmly replied, "I don't understand. I only know that if my family members were killed, I would strive to cultivate and seek revenge."
Duan Qiancang's angry expression suddenly froze, and he finally sneered, "Heh, revenge? You make it sound so easy. They are one of the strongest forces in the Immortal Realm. How can you expect them to take revenge?"
Su Chen said calmly, "So what? Even if I don't succeed in getting revenge in the end, at least I tried, instead of drowning my sorrows in alcohol every day."
Duan Qiancang's eyes were red, and tears kept sliding down his cheeks. "Don't say anymore, don't say anymore!"
He practically yelled it out.
Su Chen stared at him, "So, do you want revenge?"
Duan Qiancang gritted his teeth and said, "Yes! How could I not want to? I dream of revenge! But how can I take revenge on my own?"
Su Chen calmly said, "I can help you get revenge."
Duan Qiancang was stunned. "You? Are you kidding me?"
Su Chen said coldly, "You don't believe me?"
Duan Qiancang, "It's not that I don't believe it, it's just that..."
Before he could finish speaking, Su Chen suddenly looked at Ye Ningshuang, "Let's go."
After saying that, he turned and left without any hesitation, without lingering at all.
"Huh? Oh."
Ye Ningshuang snapped out of her daze, glanced at Duan Qiancang, and then quickly followed Su Chen's steps.
Sitting in the rocking chair, Duan Qiancang watched Su Chen Su Chen and his companion's retreating figures in silence for a few moments. Seeing them about to disappear, he steeled himself and said, "Wait a minute!"
However, Su Chen did not stop.
Duan Qiancang panicked and quickly got off the rocking chair, then used his cultivation to rush to Su Chen and the other person.
Su Chen paused, his face expressionless, staring at Duan Qiancang without saying a word.
Duan Qiancang hesitated for a moment, then said, "Can you really help me get revenge?"
Su Chen said coldly, "No."
Duan Qiancang looked somewhat embarrassed. He knew Su Chen was saying that on purpose. Taking a deep breath, he said earnestly, "As long as you can help me avenge myself, my life is yours."
A barely perceptible smile appeared on Su Chen's lips. "Are you sure?"
Duan Qiancang said, "Confirmed!"
Su Chen nodded and said, "Okay."
He glanced at Ye Ningshuang beside him and transmitted his voice, "How is it?"
Ye Ningshuang replied, "You win!"
Duan Qiancang said, "Let's go back to the courtyard and talk."
Su Chen nodded and said, "Mm."
Duan Qiancang led Su Chen and Ye Ningshuang back to the courtyard. The three sat on stone benches in the courtyard. Duan Qiancang poured a glass of wine for each of them and then said, "I'm sorry, we only have wine, no tea."
Su Chen shook his head slightly and said, "It's nothing."
Duan Qiancang nodded, then asked, "May I ask, who are you two?"
Ye Ningshuang said, "My name is Ye Ningshuang, and I am the daughter of the Azure Mist Immortal Sect Master. His name is Su Chen, and he is the son of the Mystic Hall Master."
A look of shock crossed Duan Qiancang's face. " Azure Mist Immortal Sect and Mystic Hall? These are the most powerful forces in the Immortal Realm. No wonder you are so extraordinary. This explains it."
He looked at Su Chen and said in a deep voice, "However, Young Master Su's strength is truly formidable. Even I am no match for him, and I am completely powerless to resist."
Ye Ningshuang said, "He is Immortal Emperor, it's normal that you can't beat him."
"What!"
Duan Qiancang's eyes widened. " Young Master Su is Immortal Emperor?"
Ye Ningshuang nodded and said, "Yes, and he's even Late-stage Immortal Emperor."
Upon hearing this, Duan Qiancang swallowed hard, then looked at Su Chen, "May I ask how old Young Master Su is? Is he perhaps ten thousand years old?"
"Long live?"
Ye Ningshuang shook her head slightly, "You underestimate him. He's not even five hundred years old yet."
Duan Qiancang was stunned, his face filled with disbelief. "Miss Ye, this joke isn't funny at all."
Ye Ningshuang said, "Who's joking? If you don't believe me, you can have his bone age checked."
Duan Qiancang looked at Su Chen and asked, "Is it alright?"
Although he found it hard to believe, he still wanted to see if it was true, as Ye Ningshuang had said, that Su Chen had really reached the Immortal Emperor Realm before he was even five hundred years old, and that he was at the Late-stage Immortal Emperor at that.
Su Chen calmly replied, "Whatever you say."
Duan Qiancang nodded, and then began to examine Su Chen's bone age. But what he saw shocked him to the core.
It really is!
Su Chen is really not even five hundred years old!
Late-stage Immortal Emperor, not even five hundred years old!
Holy crap!
Holy crap!
Duan Qiancang's heart pounded wildly, his face filled with shock and disbelief.
Ye Ningshuang smiled and said, "How about it? I didn't lie to you, did I?"
Duan Qiancang nodded, then said, " Young Master Su... you wouldn't happen to be the reincarnation of some powerful figure, would you?"
Su Chen blinked but didn't say anything.
"Wrong."
Duan Qiancang shook his head and said, "Even if it's a reincarnation of a powerful figure, it's impossible for them to break through to the Immortal Emperor in less than five hundred years, let alone the Late-stage Immortal Emperor."
He felt his understanding of cultivation had been overturned; what kind of good person could break through to the Late-stage Immortal Emperor in less than five hundred years?
Who is it?
At first, he was puzzled as to why Su Chen was able to completely overwhelm him. Even as Immortal Sovereign Ninth Layer Peak, he shouldn't have been so badly defeated, right?
But now he knew why—he was actually fighting against a Immortal Emperor!
If he doesn't get abused, who will?
But to be honest, he really didn't expect Su Chen to be Immortal Emperor.
Immortal Emperor who's not even five hundred years old? Who the hell would believe that?
Su Chen suddenly said, "Alright, now tell me, why was your Duan Household slaughtered by the Ten Thousand Artifacts Sect?"
Duan Qiancang snapped out of his daze, as if remembering something, his face gradually contorted with rage, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "A thousand years ago, the Myriad Ten Thousand Artifacts Sect Ten Thousand Artifacts Sect invited my father to join, but he refused. As a result, that very night, powerful figures appeared and slaughtered my entire Duan Household, from the oldest to the youngest."
Ye Ningshuang frowned, a surge of anger rising within her. "This Ten Thousand Artifacts Sect, haven't they gone too far?"
Duan Qiancang clenched his fists, his eyes bloodshot, and remained silent.
Su Chen asked, "Then why are you alive?"
Duan Qiancang remained silent for a long time before finally saying, "Because I wasn't home at the time, I was traveling, and thus escaped this calamity."
Thank you for the gift!
mwah!
