Chapter 1307: Chapter 1307: Fledgling Dragon Vein
The demon eradication assembly, because of Lin Ran’s involvement, resulted in half of the Lin Family members clinking into prison.
The remaining half, who were unrelated to the scandal, although not subject to severe punishment, for the Lin Family itself, it could already be said to have completely withdrawn from the stage of Capital City.
Colluding with the Demonic Path, such an incident occurring during the assembly where the Nine Ancient Tribes were gathered, the Lin Family’s authority had long been repossessed entirely by the Royal Family.
Now, speaking of power, let alone being a mighty aristocratic family, any named family in Capital City was far stronger than them.
But a starving camel is still larger than a horse. After all, having once been a hub for Capital City’s various major families and aristocratic families, the Lin Family still had a group of their own loyalists.
For them, being unable to vent their fury on Xia Country, naturally, they attributed all the roots of their downfall to Su ChengYu, the most active participant in the demon eradication assembly.
In their view, if not for the appearance of Su ChengYu, even if Lin Ran’s misdeeds were exposed, the Lin Family would never have fallen to such a condition.
Cornered and left with no way out, the remaining scions of the Lin Family then made a desperate move to take action against Su ChengYu.
However...
"Three Martial Emperors want to take my life? Are you looking down on me too much, Lin Family?"
He spoke indifferently, and the Dragon Slayer Sword’s golden light flickered and passed.
There was no overwhelming Sword Qi that descended, just three sword beams that appeared unexpectedly at the sides of the three Martial Emperors.
The three of Martial Emperor origins faced Su ChengYu’s moves without any reaction, and in one stroke to the throat!
Wounds burst open, blood spurted forth, and with just one strike, Su ChengYu had seriously injured the three of them.
"Indeed. You are the new Saint Envoy who defeated Long Xuan. I admit we three are indeed no match for you," one of them said.
Su ChengYu looked coldly at them and said softly, "So, you’re still not ready to accept defeat?"
The three exchanged glances, and suddenly, black energy burst from their bodies. Su ChengYu, who was no stranger to these tactics, furrowed his brow, but by the time he wanted to make a move again, it was already too late.
In just an instant, the Demonic Qi circulated throughout the three Martial Emperors’ bodies. Their eyes turned blood red, veins bulged all over, and the wounds Su ChengYu had caused with his previous strike were healing at an astonishing rate; they charged at Su ChengYu once more with a state far from that of a normal human!
"Even if we are to die, we will strip a layer of skin off you today!" they roared as they launched another attack at Su ChengYu, now infected with Demonic Qi. Although not completely fallen to the Demonic Path like Lin Ran initially did,
the three, now infected with Demonic Qi, faced only death or the possibility of becoming the next Lin Ran.
Su ChengYu sighed as he watched them, finally understanding a bit of Long Xuan’s perspective.
"Why bother?"
He could tell that the three didn’t truly wish to fall to the Demonic Path; it was merely an act of desperation by those who knew they were no match and yet would not give up.
"I had already left you a way out," he said coldly, looking at the three Martial Emperors who had no way back, bereft of any mercy.
The Dragon Slayer Sword swung out again, and this time Sword Qi crisscrossed in front of Su ChengYu, hurtling with overwhelming force toward the three assailants!
The Sword Qi split through the three Martial Emperors’ defenses like slicing through vegetables; without the capability of True Qi Transformation, they couldn’t withstand a full-powered strike from Dragon Slayer.
Only one managed to struggle up to Su ChengYu, his Magic Sword stabbing toward Su ChengYu’s glabella!
Roar!
From Su ChengYu’s glabella, a Dragon Soul emerged and roared, halting the sword strike in an instant.
The opponent’s desperate final strike was completely parried by the True Dragon Armor’s Traveling Dragon. As the assailant stared in shock at this scene, Su ChengYu’s Dragon Slayer Sword split his body in two!
In less than a few moments, the bodies of the three Martial Emperors had completely lost their vitality, collapsing on the ground, no longer human-like.
Su Chengyu looked at the three corpses and slightly furrowed his brow, not because he was cruel, but because even after their deaths, the Demonic Qi continued to erode their bodies.
This power was like poison, extremely destructive to the human body.
Taking a deep breath, Su Chengyu said, "The Demonic Path... it’s not something just anyone can dabble in."
"Su Chengyu..."
The voice of Yang Junmo rose from behind him, staring at the three corpses somewhat dazedly.
Su Chengyu, guessing why Yang Junmo had come, softly said, "It’s the Lin Family’s doing."
Yang Junmo nodded without saying anything more, and heaved a long sigh, "One mistake after another, the Lin Family has truly been a disappointment."
"Hatred has blinded their eyes. It’s just the same with these three, as I imagine it is with Lin Ran."
The three despised Su Chengyu, while Lin Ran despised the world itself.
"Who do you think did it?"
Su Chengyu suddenly lifted his head and asked Yang Junmo.
"Isn’t it the Lin Family?"
Yang Junmo asked, puzzled.
"The Lin Family managing to gather three Martial Emperors to make a move on me was already quite difficult, and given their early punishment, it’s unlikely they had the ability to grasp our whereabouts. There must be someone else helping the Lin Family behind the scenes."
"Helping the Demonic Path?"
Yang Junmo frowned. Helping a desolate Lin Family wasn’t a big deal, but once the Demonic Path came into the picture, it was entirely a different matter.
"Is it possible it was the Qian family?"
From afar, Bei Tang Qianxiao, who had arrived later with Bei Tang Lin, spoke up.
After entering the deserted residence of the Qian family, she had noticed the movements of the three, and considering this place was indeed suitable for ambush, it was difficult not for her to suspect the Qian family, who also fit another criterion for making a move on Su Chengyu.
If the Qian family judged Su Chengyu to be a potential threat, they had both the capability and the standing to take action against him secretly.
However, Su Chengyu shook his head, "Although evidence points towards the Qian family, doesn’t this method seem a bit too clumsy?"
Everything was too indicative of the Qian family, which rather made Su Chengyu believe someone was deliberately setting them up.
Moreover, from what Ye Qingci had described before, it didn’t seem like the Qian family was the type to act against him.
"What do we do now? Should we head back first?"
Bei Tang Qianxiao asked Su Chengyu.
Su Chengyu glanced at Bei Tang Lin and asked, "Chasing after the Dragon Vein or preserving your own safety, which do you choose?"
Originally planning to head back, Bei Tang Lin’s brow furrowed at this question and she countered, "Have you found the whereabouts of that nascent Dragon Vein?"
"Yes," Su Chengyu answered with a smile.
"I don’t believe it! What method could you possibly have to locate a nascent Dragon Vein?"
Bei Tang Lin burst out. Tracking down a Dragon Vein was a serious matter; even an Earth Immortal would find it nearly impossible to locate one that hadn’t fully formed, akin to Ascension.
After all, Dragon Veins were spiritual, and might relocate their base to preserve their safety upon sensing someone approaching. She truly didn’t believe that Su Chengyu, who wasn’t well-versed in geomancy, could have discovered the location of a nascent Dragon Vein.
Su Chengyu smiled and said, "Believe it or not, that’s up to you."
Of course, Su Chengyu himself did not have the ability to find the nascent Dragon Vein, but that didn’t mean something else on him didn’t. It wasn’t Su Chengyu who had discovered the whereabouts of the nascent Dragon Vein, but instead the Traveling Dragon within the True Dragon Armor!
