Chapter 154: Display of Loyalty (1)

Surrender!

Lin Fengtang had finally surrendered .

He couldn’t not surrender . These people were all his subordinates . Would he only surrender once those two hundred martial artists killed all of his people?

Surrendering now at the very least would mean that less people would die .

This unsuspenseful battle ended just like that .

Half of the martial artists had been injured or killed . The Origin Qi Scholars weren’t injured at all, but their expressions were extremely dire . Evidently, the scene they had just witnessed had shocked them to their very core . None of Su Chen’s two hundred martial artists had died . Not only that, but they still had enough energy to joke around with each other . They didn’t look like they had just fought a fierce battle at all .

This totally stunned everyone who had witnessed the strength of the martial artists that Su Chen had improved .

In reality, there was one thing that Su Chen hadn’t told Lin Fengtang, which was that expending half Origin Energy and half blood Qi was more appropriate for humans .

Humans didn’t have the weakest physiques, and after a long period of cultivation and constant strengthening, they also possessed abundant blood Qi . Even though they weren’t as powerful as the Ferocious Race, they had their own methods . Cutting the blood Qi expenditure to half also saved martial artists more than half of their physical power .

This was like an all-out sprint versus a quick run . If you ran at half speed, the total distance you could run would be almost ten times more than how far you could run in an all-out sprint .

The same went for the usage of Blood Qi .

SInce using the Hemolytic Totem now didn’t wring a person dry of their bodily strength, even Body Tempering martial artists would become a lot stronger with the support of the Hemolytic Totem .

Upon realizing this, Su Chen knew that the importance of converting the Hemolytic Totem to only use Origin Energy had gone down greatly . The current Hemolytic Totem was already incredibly useful .

These Body Tempering martial artists only needed a single Origin Stone to reach the power level of a normal Qi Drawing Realm cultivator .

This kind of upgrade was massive .

It was very easy to imagine the shock that would appear when a huge wave of people endowed with the Hemolytic Totem appeared in a future battle .

In reality, Lin Fengtang was the first person to experience this shock . Otherwise, he wouldn’t have surrendered so easily . As long as Su Chen was willing and put the Hemolytic Totem on display, the Clear River City Bloodline Nobility Clans would do anything to get their hands on it .

Su Chen hadn’t done so simply because he didn’t want to do so .

It was the same reason why he didn’t want to conduct business with the Immortal Temple and his attitude towards the billion Origin Stones he had earned . To him, wiping out these Bloodline Nobility Clans was something that he could do with just a flip of his hand, but he didn’t like doing things that way . He rather enjoyed this way of doing things .

When Lin Fengtang surrendered, the whole Lin Residence was plunged into despair .

They had lost just like that?

They had surrendered just like that?

A Bloodline Nobility Clan had been forced to lower its head just like that?

Many people were unwilling to and didn’t dare accept this kind of outcome .

Su Chen knew the thoughts in their hearts . He directly said, “Since Patriarch Lin is willing to surrender, then things couldn’t possibly be better . However, Patriarch Lin should also understand that surrendering isn’t just something that can be accomplished through a single sentence . There needs to be concrete action taken . ”

“What do you want?”

“A display of loyalty,” Su Chen said as he smiled slightly .

A display of loyalty?

Lin Fengtang was stunned . “Right now? Where will I go to look for a display of loyalty?”

“You won’t need to look for anything . Someone will create an opportunity for you,” Su Chen replied .

Create an opportunity?

As if in response to what Su Chen had said, a voice suddenly yelled from the outside:

“Su Chen! What are you doing?”

Everyone glanced in the direction of the voice . A group of people was heading in their direction, with Chen Wenhui at the very front .

The Investigations Bureau had showed up at this very moment .

Su Chen smiled at Chen Wenhui and replied, “So it’s Sir Chen . Sir Chen, you have quite a bit of time on your hands today, huh? Why have you come all the way to the west side of the city?”

“If I didn’t come, you would have wiped out the Lin Clan, wouldn’t you have?” Chen Wenhui said darkly . “How bold! Who gave you the authority to gather a group of people to attack the Bloodline Nobility Clans?”

“Who gave the Bloodline Nobility Clans the authority to attack me?”

Chen Wenhui lifted up his head . “The higher-ups have already made a decision on this case . ”

“What kind of decision?”

“It was all a misunderstanding . Patriarch Wang was chasing after a criminal and accidentally implicated you . ”

“He yelled out my name . ”

“That was to tell you to get out of the way . You just didn’t hear clearly, and Patriarch Wang didn’t want to bicker with you . However, since the higher-ups have already made a decision, don’t even think about overturning it . Furthermore, don’t think about using this as an excuse to attack the nobility clans!”

“Using this as an excuse?” Su Chen’s eyebrows jumped . “Sir Chen, you must be misunderstanding something! I am not using this as an excuse to attack the Lin Clan . ”

“You dare say you aren’t?” Chen Wenhui pointed at the battlefield . Those ten or so dead martial artists have yet to be carried away . “What are those?”

“That’s not related to me,” Su Chen replied . “I’m only responsible for the Origin Bureau . I can promise you that none of the assailants belonged to my Origin Bureau . As for the others, they have nothing to do with me . ”

Chen Wenhui was caught off guard . Wang Wenxin and Guo Long laughed simultaneously, “We were the ones that attacked . Sir Chen, do you have any objections?”

“You guys?” Chen Wenhui’s expression sank . “Do you know what the consequences of betraying the nobility are?”

Wang Wenxin and Guo Long simultaneously frowned and ignored him .

Su Chen said, “See, was I wrong? These people don’t belong to me, and what happened also has nothing to do with me . ”

“So what are you doing here?” Chen Wenhui asked .

“Naturally, I am carrying out my duty as the head of the Origin Bureau . All battles between Origin Qi Scholars are under my jurisdiction . If they aren’t Origin Qi Scholars, it’s not my business,” Su Chen replied .

Chen Wenhui balked . As he glanced again at the corpses, he discovered that they were all corpses of martial artists . Not a single Origin Qi Scholar had been killed .

He was stunned .

He was rendered speechless by Su Chen, but the killing intent in his eyes only grew thicker .

“Su Chen!” he growled .

“Finally stopped looking for an excuse?” Su Chen smiled slightly . “That’s right . If you want to fight, let’s fight it out . What need is there to try and find such empty excuses?”

As he spoke, he waved his arm . His people got into formation .

“You’re right . If we’re going to fight, let’s have ourselves a good fight . What need is there for excuses?” Chen Wenhui laughed . “But do you really think you can win?”

“Whether I can win or not, we won’t know until we fight . ” Su Chen gestured . A large group of people charged forward .

Those two hundred martial artists were still at the very front, but this time both gangs’ Origin Qi Scholars also attacked . Only the people from the Origin Bureau remained motionless, as if they were only here on business like Su Chen had said . However, this carrying out of business was too off the mark . So many people clashing simultaneously couldn’t possibly be ignored .

Chen Wenhui said savagely, “A bunch of lowly trash wants to contend with me?”

His figure trembled . Countless vines emerged from his body, each one as agile as a serpent as they snaked in all directions .

Unlike before, his opponent was not a demon, so Chen Wenhui didn’t use his Cleansing Lotus Lily . Instead, he activated his Young Tree Nymph Bloodline, causing countless vines to shoot towards his opponents .

These vines were like massive pythons, wrapping themselves around their opponents and strangling them to death .

Even the Cliffrock Armor had a hard time withstanding these attacks . Under the constriction of these vines, the Cliffrock Armor began to peel off their bodies in large chunks .

The other Origin Qi Scholars, however, made a move at the same time . Countless blades of wind shot at Chen Wenhui . In response, a bluish glow suddenly appeared at the center of Chen Wenhui’s forehead . “Rise!”

The Cleansing Light Lily reappeared, blocking most of the attacks . At the same time, the vines quickly retracted .

With a snapping sound, the vines sliced away seven or eight of the Hemolytic Totem martial artists’ lives .

“You should feel embarrassed by your insignificant talent!” Chen Wenhui howled as he launched a palm strike . A wave of energy surged forward, forcing a few of the Origin Qi Scholars backwards, fully demonstrating the power of a peak Yang Opening Realm cultivator with a high-quality bloodline .

Su Chen eyes lit up . “Indeed, he has some skill . Patriarch Lin, wouldn’t you say so?”
