Su Chen's performance today, and the strength he displayed, truly startled everyone. It took them a long time to process and calm their shocked emotions.
"I never expected Chen'er to be so powerful, already a Divine Lord. It's unbelievable," Qin An couldn't help but say.
"Yeah, it's really unbelievable. How old is he? He's already reached the peak of cultivation. I'm really curious, how did this brat do it? No matter how good his cultivation talent is, it can't be this exaggerated, right?" Su Yanche said.
This was a question not only he wanted to know, but others also wanted to know; they had truly had their eyes opened today.
"Sister Zixuan, come on, let's go to the stream to talk." Su Jianxi took Qin Zixuan's hand and turned to leave. She was now eager to know more and more about her brother.
"Why don't we go listen to it too? We have nothing else to do anyway," Su Yanche said to Qin An.
"Okay." Qin An nodded, not refusing.
The group of powerful members of the Su Household in the distance glanced at the four people, then exchanged glances, and finally all looked at the unconscious Su Lin. Someone said, "Elder, stop pretending, that senior has already left."
Upon hearing this, Su Lin's eyelids twitched, and she slowly opened her eyes, her gaze filled with confusion. "What... just happened?"
Everyone: "..."
They were speechless; Su Lin's acting was just plain terrible.
"Ahem." Su Lin coughed twice, realizing that his acting skills still needed improvement, as he was easily seen through. He decided to stop pretending, got up, composed himself, glanced at Su Yanche and the other three in the distance, and then quietly approached Su Qingyan.
Although Su Chen had left, the divine power pressing down on Su Qingyan had not disappeared, and he was still unable to move. This gave Su Qingyan a clearer understanding of the existence of Divine Lord.
Even if True God possesses the power to roam the universe, in the eyes of the Divine Lord, True God is nothing more than a slightly stronger ant. For the Divine Lord, killing True God is an extremely simple matter.
The difference between the two has long Transcendence the simple constraints of realm. True God are like overlords who control the entire galaxy, able to cause galaxies to collapse and recombine with a mere gesture. They are the embodiment of rules, capable of rewriting local rules of the universe with their own will.
However, the Divine Lord is above the rules!
With a single thought, the Divine Lord could instantly annihilate all cause and effect, completely blurring the boundary between existence and non-existence. As the Divine Lord stepped forward, beneath his feet lay a spacetime staircase traversing endless dimensions, and with a single breath, he could shatter the world system constructed by the True God into dust, like blowing away a sandcastle.
This gap is the chasm between ants gazing up at the sky and chaos giving birth to all things; it is an insurmountable, eternal barrier between the created and the creator. This is why Su Qingyan, as a True God, was utterly powerless against Su Chen.
"Elder, what do we do next?" Su Lin asked in a deep voice.
"What can we do?" Su Qingyan sneered. "What else can we do? Of course, we should stay here obediently and wait for that person to return. Do you think you can escape? Let me tell you, don't harbor any illusions that you can escape the grasp of a Divine Lord, or you will suffer a terrible fate."
The knowledge of the hundreds of powerful members of the Su Household was relatively low. They had no concept of an existence like the Divine Lord. After all, they had only heard of him and knew that the Divine Lord was very strong, but they did not know exactly how strong he was.
Therefore, they had just considered running away, but after Su Qingyan reminded them, they immediately calmed down, their foreheads covered in cold sweat, still feeling lingering fear.
"Sigh." Su Lin sighed deeply. Recalling Su Chen's terrifying power, he felt a chill run down his spine. Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he frowned. "Elder, tell me, why didn't that senior kill us? Instead, he spared our lives."
Upon hearing this, Su Qingyan fell into deep thought, then asked, "Tell me, what is the purpose of your visit?"
Su Lin nodded, making no attempt to hide anything, and honestly recounted the entire incident without embellishing anything. He dared not embellish it, mainly because he didn't dare. If Su Chen found out that he had exaggerated the events, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Fool!" Su Qingyan roared after hearing the whole story, "Why should our Su Household need to rely on marriage alliances with other powers to maintain our status in the universe?"
"This wasn't my decision; the clan leader ordered us to do it this way," Su Lin said with a wry smile.
"Hmph!" Su Qingyan snorted coldly. "That Su Yi is becoming more and more spineless. Under his leadership, the Su Household has gradually declined over the years. I really don't know how he became the clan leader. When I have the chance, I will definitely have a good talk with the ancestor about him."
Su Lin stood aside, barely daring to breathe. Although he also felt that the current patriarch of the Su Household was indeed not very capable, he dared not say it out loud unless he also possessed the cultivation of True God, otherwise he could not bear the consequences.
"That senior might be related to them. Try to strike up a conversation with them." Su Qingyan's gaze turned to Su Yanche and his group in the distance, her eyes gleaming.
"Well... okay, I'll try my best." Su Lin hesitated for a moment, then nodded and slowly walked towards Su Yanche and the others. He stood behind them, agonizing for a long time. Su Yanche and the others seemed to have noticed him, but they ignored him.
"I'm sorry, I was just following orders." Su Lin decided to apologize first before asking about her doubts.
"Heh, acting under orders?" Su Jianxi sneered, "You must know very well how the people of our ancestral land have bullied us for the past few hundred years, right?"
Su Lin opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he couldn't utter a single word, because he knew he was in the wrong.
"You want to know who that young man was, right? He's my son, surnamed Su, and he has the blood of the Su Household," Su Yanche said calmly.
Upon hearing this, Su Lin was jolted, his mind going completely blank. What had he just heard? That young man with the Divine Lord was actually Su Yanche's son?
Holy crap!
Startled, Su Lin took several steps back, a strong sense of regret welling up inside him. At this moment, he couldn't help but ask, what exactly had they done all these years? Why had they suppressed Su Yanche and the others?
madness!
Su Lin couldn't help but curse inwardly, not at anyone else but himself and everyone in the ancestral land. How could they possibly oppose the parents of a Divine Lord? Wasn't that utter foolishness?
If they treat Su Yanche and the others well, then the Su Household will have a Divine Lord as their backer! At that time, the Su Household's status will be no less than that of the Divine Palace!
What exactly did we do?!
Su Lin roared inwardly, her eyes turning red...
