Chapter 2429 - 2529: Both Jealous and Shocked! (Third Update)

Chapter 2429: Chapter 2529: Both Jealous and Shocked! (Third Update)

"Brother Su, I beg you, come to the Zhao Family with me." Zhao Lingxi continued, her voice carrying a faint plea.

"Lingxi, as I am now, even if I go to the Zhao Family, I still won’t get your Old Ancestors’ acknowledgment, right?" Su Chen, however, shook his head and smiled. "Maybe if I go now, the result will just be getting kicked out by your Old Ancestors."

Zhao Lingxi’s face turned slightly pale.

She fell silent.

Because what Su Chen said was very likely.

Whether it was the Old Ancestors or the Zhao Family’s upper echelons, they indeed favored Zhuo Ming and the other two more at the moment.

Although they also knew of Su Chen’s existence, had carefully investigated him, and greatly appreciated and even anticipated Su Chen...

But that appreciation and anticipation were only for Su Chen’s potential.

As for whether Su Chen could, in the hearts of the Zhao Family members, rival Zhuo Ming and the other two, or even earn the qualification to marry Zhao Lingxi, that depended on Su Chen’s performance in the days to come.

And that performance definitely did not include Su Chen following Zhao Lingxi back to the Zhao Family right now out of fear of Zhuo Ming and the other two.

"The Old Ancestors treat me very well. If I beg them, they might agree." Zhao Lingxi’s voice had already become as small as a mosquito’s buzz.

"Lingxi, you know my temperament." Su Chen shook his head.

Zhao Lingxi fell silent.

In the same instant.

"Dong..." Abruptly, the room door was knocked on again.

"Who is it?" Su Chen asked.

Zhao Lingxi hurriedly straightened her clothes and left the bed.

She sat down on the chair beside the coffee table.

"Qingxuan." Li Qingxuan spoke.

"Is something the matter?" Su Chen asked.

"Can I come in to say it? It’s... it’s urgent." There was indeed some anxiety in Li Qingxuan’s voice.

Su Chen glanced at Zhao Lingxi.

Then said, "Come in."

Li Qingxuan walked in, a long cyan dress on her body. Paired with her absolutely beautiful and delicate face, she gave off a pure yet subtly alluring kind of beauty.

As soon as Li Qingxuan entered, her first glance landed on Zhao Lingxi.

Moreover, a woman’s intuition was too precise.

She instinctively knew that something had happened between Su Chen and Zhao Lingxi just now.

Mm, that kind of thing that only happens between a man and a woman.

Li Qingxuan’s heart was both sour and shocked.

She felt sour naturally because she knew Su Chen was the destined Emperor in her fate.

He was Li Qingxuan’s man!

Yet he had... with another woman...

And the shock was that Zhao Lingxi and Su Chen had already reached this point? Zhao Lingxi was the absolute divine woman being targeted by the Direct Lineage sons of the Zhuo Family and the other three Top-Level First-Class Forces, the only woman possessing Demi-God Status. She was already Su Chen’s woman?!

In that true, literal sense?

Did Su Chen not consider the consequences of doing this? He’d be completely locked in Undying Determination against the Direct Lineage sons of the Zhuo Family and the other three Top-Level First-Class Forces!

He would have to face Zhuo Ming and the other two alone! The three most terrifying young men in the Grand Cosmos World in hundreds of millions of years!

"Qingxuan, is something the matter?" Su Chen asked. He wasn’t particularly familiar with Li Qingxuan.

"Su Chen, leave the Li Family immediately!!!" Only then did Li Qingxuan remember her main business. Her expression changed as she stared at Su Chen and spoke in a tight voice, her tone suffused with indescribable gravity: "Zhuo Ming is coming! Jian Ku is coming with him!"

This was what she had seen.

Vaguely seen.

The Prophetic Physique was just that terrifying.

"How do you know?" Su Chen was somewhat surprised. The event hadn’t happened yet, but Li Qingxuan already knew? And she seemed very sure.

"Don’t worry about how I know. Just leave now, immediately, or you’ll die. Since Zhuo Ming and Jian Ku are coming together, they’re definitely targeting you. And on top of that, you and Miss Zhao..." Li Qingxuan was anxious.

"Zhuo Ming, huh? Is he very strong?" Su Chen asked.

Li Qingxuan was directly choked by the question.

The way he asked sounded almost like an Earthling asking, "Is Bill Gates rich?"

Wasn’t that nonsense?

Leaving everything else aside and only talking about the Nine Paths Nether Body.

In the Grand Cosmos World, over tens of billions of years, only Zhuo Ming possessed it!

Others could only see six Paths, while he could see nine.

With one glance he could see through the Human Dao, Monster Dao, Divinity, Path of Literary, Martial Arts, Soul Path, Imperial Path, Heavenly Dao, and the Great Dao!!!

How should one even describe such terror? He was simply invincible.

Moreover, he didn’t just see through them; he could also draw Strength from these nine Paths and use it for himself.

It was horrifying!

A figure this terrifying fundamentally shouldn’t exist in the world at all.

Only because the Grand Cosmos World had ushered in a great era did such a bug-level genius appear. In any other era, such a genius couldn’t appear. Even if one did, they would be immediately erased by the will of the Grand Cosmos World.

Li Qingxuan took a deep breath and said, "Su Chen, I don’t know the exact extent of Zhuo Ming’s Strength. But what’s certain is that someone on Hong Yan’s level—Zhuo Ming could kill ten of him in One Move."

And that was already putting it conservatively.

"Su Chen, come back to the Zhao Family with me." Zhao Lingxi also stood up, her nation-toppling, city-toppling face bearing a mix of stubbornness and pleading.

"If things are really as you say, even if I leave the Li Family, it’s useless!" Su Chen said with a bitter smile. Lingxi and Qingxuan, both of them were being a bit naïve.

Since Zhuo Ming was that ridiculously powerful, it seemed that unless he left the Grand Cosmos World altogether, there would be no way to truly avoid him.

The only option was to face him.

Zhao Lingxi’s face instantly turned deathly pale.

Li Qingxuan, meanwhile, was about to speak several times, but after half a day of hesitating, she still didn’t know what to say.

"Alright, it’s time to head to the Li Family Mansion." Su Chen said with a smile. Today was the birthday banquet celebrating the birth of the Li Family Old Ancestor, and right now all invited guests were heading to the Li Family...

"But..." Li Qingxuan still wanted to say something, yet Su Chen took the first step, striding out of the room. "No buts. Let’s go."

Li Qingxuan could only press down all the words she wanted to say.

Zhao Lingxi was the same.

The two women followed behind Su Chen.

One to the left, one to the right.

The three of them walked out of the tavern.

And headed toward the Li Family Mansion.

Naturally, they drew absolute attention!!!

There was no helping it. Just last night, Su Chen had killed Hong Yan, who had already stepped into the Origin Emperor Extreme Realm. On top of that, he was Miss Zhao’s man, which had already shocked the entire Li City and made him the storm center of the whole city...

And now he was flanked on both sides by Li Qingxuan and Zhao Lingxi. It was simply... impossible not to attract attention.

An indescribably high-profile display.

"If Zhuo Ming really comes, will your Old Ancestor make a move?" Following behind Su Chen, Zhao Lingxi softly asked Li Qingxuan.

"She will." Li Qingxuan answered without hesitation. "Our Old Ancestor has already placed her bet on Su Chen!"

Because Li Qingxuan had the Prophetic Physique, persuading the Old Ancestor was no trouble at all.

"My Protector will also make a move unconditionally." Zhao Lingxi said. Her Protector was also a Top-Level Old Monster on the same level as Feng Qiu. However, he was only a Protector. As for the other top existences of the Zhao Family, it was temporarily very difficult for her to mobilize them. Besides, there wasn’t enough time.

Adding Feng Qiu.

There were a total of three Top-Level Old Monsters of the Grand Cosmos World.

That at least let Li Qingxuan and Zhao Lingxi feel a tiny trace of relief.

Three Top-Level Old Monsters of the Grand Cosmos World did offer some sense of security.

The rest would depend on Su Chen himself.
