CHAPTER 62: CHAPTER 59: THE TERRIFYING BLOOD SECT

"Kill him."

Su Chen felt a sudden chill run through his entire body. He looked at the man in disbelief and fear. Was he really going to kill him?

"I told you to kill him, didn’t you hear me?"

The man reiterated, and Yan Lie nodded in fear, "Yes, big brother, I’ll do it now..."

He gave Su Chen a complex look, thinking to himself, Kid, you can only blame your bad luck for running into our big brother. Next life, be born into a better family, and don’t end up in the middle of nowhere like this!

He raised his right hand high, and a dazzling earthen yellow light flashed instantly! The thick Earth Attribute aura bore down, making Su Chen feel utterly despairing and helpless!

"Goodbye, kid!"

The hand chopped down, and Su Chen closed his eyes!

"Ah!"

With a scream, Yan Lie, who thought it would be a sure kill, was unexpectedly struck by a fierce and tyrannical force and was thrown away like a kite!

In an instant, the Black Jade Tablet was hurled into the air, and a lightning-fast figure soared up and caught it steadily!

"Father!"

Su Chen couldn’t help but call out in joy!

Only to see Su Hutian land gracefully, a face full of anger, his black hair fluttering with an indescribable aura of dominance! As his tiger eyes glared, the earthy yellow aura around him swelled ten times that of Yan Lie’s, and a mighty lion floated vaguely, emitting a low growl that shook the soul.

The man in black’s expression changed immediately!

Beast Venerable Strong Person? A thousand thoughts crossed his mind in an instant, but in the face of absolute power, all schemes were useless!

"Let’s go quickly!"

He immediately ordered a retreat; the three exchanged glances and shot off in three different directions!

Su Hutian didn’t even look at them, snorted, went over, and picked up the weakened Su Chen, a trace of tenderness appearing on his stern face, "Chen’Er, are you alright?"

"Father, I’m fine..."

Su Chen said with a weak smile, "In that Black Jade Tablet, there’s a red ring I found..."

After saying that, he fainted from exhaustion.

Su Hutian’s heart trembled, and he quickly held him tightly as they took off, disappearing from the scene in an instant.

When Su Chen woke up, the first thing he saw was his father, Su Hutian. Under the bright light of the Beast Oil Lamp, Su Hutian’s angular face showed a hint of concern, "Chen’Er, are you feeling better?"

Su Chen nodded but hurriedly asked, "Father, where is mother?"

"She went back to her parents’ house and will return in a few days."

As if remembering something, Su Chen asked, "Father, where is the ring? You must not touch it with your hands, or it will turn you into a corpse!"

Su Hutian seemed to understand, smiled faintly, and said, "Don’t worry, father knows, but Chen’Er, where did you get this ring from? Why did it provoke the ’Lone Wolf’ to attack you?"

Su Chen seemed a little uneasy and recalled, "I found it; it must have been dropped by those two people, right? I usually enter a cave under the waterfall to practice. Unexpectedly, just as I entered, I saw a very long serpent sleeping. I wanted to run away, but the serpent was accidentally awakened by me and wanted to pounce on me and swallow me."

Su Hutian’s expression changed slightly, and he thought to himself, he was right, "And then?"

Su Chen steadied himself and continued, "Then a man suddenly shouted ’Xuan Kui, come out!’ and the serpent bypassed me, slammed a big hole in the cave entrance, and rushed out."

Su Hutian nodded and sighed, "It really is a Beast Soul Powerhouse. I estimate that this serpent should be about level seven."

"Father!"

Su Chen was shocked and widened his eyes, looking at his father in disbelief, "A level seven Spirit Beast?"

"Yes."

Su Hutian nodded in agreement, "Being able to respond to a summon, it must be a Spirit Beast. From the residual impact marks on the waterfall’s rockface and the water attribute skills used on site, we can determine its approximate level. But more frightening is the man who summoned Xuan Kui; his power should be above a Beast Soul!"

Su Chen felt a violent tremor in his heart and swallowed hard, "Then did you fight him, father?"

Su Hutian chuckled to himself, "A Beast Venerable against a Beast Soul, that’s worlds apart, Chen’Er, how could you ask such a foolish question?"

Su Chen felt a bit disappointed, "I thought father was the most powerful..."

"Haha, let’s not talk about that. Chen’Er, please describe the scene once more for father."

A peculiar glow seemed to flicker in Su Hutian’s eyes.

"I was hiding under the waterfall and saw two people flying in mid-air. From their conversation, I learned one’s name was Luo Feng, and the other was Bai Ya."

"What?"

On hearing this, Su Hutian’s face turned ghostly white!

Su Chen’s heart skipped a beat and asked, "What’s wrong?"

"Luo Feng, Peak Master of Cyan Cloud Peak of Celestial Peak Sect, one of the most formidable Beast Demon masters of our time!"

Even the usually composed Su Hutian was now visibly shaken, his expression more shocked than ever!

Su Chen was utterly stunned.

"Beast... Beast Demon?"

His voice trembled, his whole body shaking with it. Just thinking about Luo Feng’s appearance of righteousness and demeanor, his heart went cold. Had he escaped under the eyes of such a Beast Demon master?

"And the other one?"

After a long while, Su Hutian regained his composure.

Su Chen hesitated for a moment before saying, "The other... seemed to be called Bai Ya."

This time, it was Su Hutian’s turn to be petrified. His eyes widened, his breath seemingly frozen in that moment, utterly shocked and frozen in place!

Although he had guessed the person’s significant weight, being able to contend with a Beast Demon expert, such strength should not be underestimated. But he could never have imagined it would be such a prominent figure!

"Father?"

Su Chen looked at his father and worriedly called out.

Su Hutian remained in a daze for a full half-minute before slowly sighing, "Chen’Er, father really admires your luck this time."

"What’s the matter, father?"

Su Chen asked, puzzled.

"Surviving under the eyes of two Beast Demon experts, wouldn’t you say your luck is extraordinarily good?"

Su Hutian sighed, making Su Chen feel a bit embarrassed. He was merely an ant under those powerful figures’ gaze, not even worthy of being stepped on...

"That Bai Ya is one of the three Deputy Sect Leaders of the foremost evil sect, the Blood Sect. I never thought he’d engage with Luo Feng here. Luckily, it wasn’t within Iron Stone City; otherwise, who knows how many innocent civilians would have been caught in the crossfire."

Su Hutian looked back with fear.

"Father, Bai Ya didn’t have any Spirit Beast assistance. After a few moves, Luo Feng had him running away in defeat. It seems our righteous forces will always triumph, isn’t that so, father?"

Su Chen asked.

"Haha, maybe, but Bai Ya didn’t lack Spirit Beast support. The Blood Sect by nature likes single combat and despises teamwork and companionship."

This time, Su Chen was taken aback, "Why is that, father?"

"The Blood Sect is inherently a group of evildoers. Their strength being so formidable makes them a force to be reckoned with alongside the righteous paths. After hundreds of years of expansion, their strength rivals the foremost righteous faction, the Celestial Peak Sect. But while the true forms of the powerful ones from the righteous paths are generally known, the Blood Sect’s Sect Leader, three Deputy Sect Leaders, and five Elders remain very mysterious. No one has seen their true appearance over the years, or if they did, they were killed."
