19: The enigmatic Su Chen is in danger.
Hearing these words, the expressions of Su Qingtian and Su Yunqian became incredibly ugly.
Indeed, if the Su Family did not have Su Hongyuan holding down the fort, they would truly have no qualifications to contend with the Four Great Families.
Su Qingtian said in a calm tone, "Chener, the moment the fighting starts, you must quickly find an opportunity to leave."
"Your Third Uncle is already making arrangements. You don't need to worry about anything; just focus on escaping. Even if the Su Family is destroyed, as long as you are not dead, the Su Family will still exist."
Although Su Qingtian spoke calmly, his grave expression was enough to show just how serious this situation was.
In fact, if nothing unexpected happened, the Su Family was bound to be destroyed.
Su Chen, on the other hand, was considering whether or not to simply kill the people from the Four Great Families. If he killed them, how should he explain it to them?
Should I say my Master directly gave me an empowerment?
That's too ridiculous.
Even Su Chen felt it was a bit absurd.
He wasn't worried about the safety of Su Qingtian and Su Yunqian; with him around, it would be difficult for them to die. It was just a matter of how to explain things.
Su Chen quickly thought of a method. He smiled and said, "Father, you underestimate me. I am at the Peak of the Nascent Soul Stage. With my strength, I am invincible against anyone below the Middle Stage of the Soul Transformation Stage."
"Have you never heard of those peerless Geniuses who can kill enemies across Realms?"
Su Qingtian was stunned for a moment. He asked with a serious expression, "Is that true?"
Having three Soul Transformation Stage combatants was clearly more resistant than having two; at the very least, if they needed to escape, the chances of survival would be higher.
Su Chen smiled, and his figure turned into a shooting star as he charged toward Li Feichi.
Li Feichi's eyes were filled with disdain. A mere Nascent Soul Stage cultivator actually dared to initiate an attack; he truly didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth.
He raised his hand, intending to grab Su Chen.
"Since you've delivered yourself to my doorstep, don't blame me for being impolite."
Li Feichi tried to grab Su Chen's fist, but he suddenly felt a massive force coming from it, and his expression changed abruptly.
"Bang!"
Li Feichi was sent flying sideways, crashing into the city.
What!
Everyone present widened their eyes, watching this scene in disbelief.
Su Chen actually possessed such strength, able to send Li Feichi flying with a single punch. One had to know that he was at the Middle Stage of the Soul Transformation Stage, and there was a gap of one major Realm and one minor Realm between him and Su Chen.
Some Geniuses could indeed kill enemies across Realms, but that was usually within minor Realms. Crossing a major Realm was highly unreasonable.
Su Qingtian and Su Yunqian widened their eyes, feeling as if they had seen a ghost.
Su Chen's strength was this powerful?
Sending Li Feichi flying with one punch—even Su Yunqian couldn't do such a thing.
Yet Su Chen had done it easily. What a terrifying Physical Body that was.
"Pfft!"
Li Feichi suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. That punch was filled with hidden force; if he hadn't reacted quickly, he might have been severely injured.
"You... why do you have such strength!"
Li Feichi raised his head, his tone filled with disbelief. He could not accept the fact that he had been injured by a single punch.
Su Chen said indifferently, "There are many things you haven't seen."
Wang Ming roared, "Stop with the nonsense, hurry up and kill them. Do not hold back in the slightest."
Su Chen's strength had also thoroughly panicked him. He was not even nineteen years old and already possessed strength capable of rivaling the Soul Transformation Stage.
If he were given another two years, wouldn't he directly make a Breakthrough to the Void Refining Stage?
Furthermore, the Su Family had now displayed astonishing financial resources, which made them even more anxious.
Wang Ming's aura at the Late Stage of the Soul Transformation Stage was instantly revealed, and the pressure permeated the entire Bright Moon City. The five Soul Transformation Stage cultivators from the Wang Family and Yuan Family charged toward Su Qingtian and Su Yunqian.
Li Feichi and He Hongyuan charged toward Su Chen.
A great battle was on the verge of breaking out.
Su Qingtian's eyes were filled with gravity. His entire body exuded a savage aura, and his muscles turned crimson.
"Kill!"
Two against five—there was almost no suspense. After just a few exchanges, Su Qingtian and the other were almost retreating step by step.
"Don't get entangled in the fight. Find an opportunity and run immediately."
Su Qingtian said in a low voice.
Wang Ming said coldly, "No one can save you today."
He raised his hand and threw several stones forward. The surfaces of these stones were engraved with mysterious symbols that were flashing with light.
Formation Stones!
These kinds of stones were generally engraved with a Formation; just like that Four Symbols Formation, they could be taken out directly when needed.
Wang Ming set up the Formation very quickly. By the time Su Qingtian reacted, the Formation had already completely enveloped them.
"Damn it!"
Su Qingtian cursed inwardly, and his expression became incredibly gloomy.
Wang Ming laughed, "Hahaha, this Formation is an Intermediate Profound Rank killing Formation. I spent a great price to kill you all."
As his words fell, he manipulated the Formation to operate, and a massive long saber suddenly charged toward Su Qingtian.
This long saber was conjured by the Formation, but it possessed the power to slay those at the Soul Transformation Stage.
Su Qingtian dodged with difficulty, and the long saber quickly struck toward Su Yunqian.
His strength was only at the Early Stage of the Incarnation, and the speed of the long saber was extremely fast. He couldn't dodge it at all and could only resist with difficulty.
"Pfft!"
The long saber pierced directly through his defense, striking toward Su Yunqian's forehead.
"I'll come to help you!"
Su Qingtian's aura was powerful to the extreme. He punched the long saber and shattered it, which was the only reason Su Yunqian was spared from danger.
Seeing this scene, Wang Ming's eyes were filled with coldness, "It's not over yet."
Inside the great Formation, three weapons immediately appeared: a long saber, a long sword, and a long spear.
At the same time, the Soul Transformation Stage cultivators from the Yuan Family and Wang Family also entered it, coordinating with the Formation to charge toward the two together.
"Oh no!"
Su Qingtian's face was bitter. The Four Great Families had long been prepared, which filled his heart with a sense of powerlessness.
The joint effort of five Soul Transformation Stage cultivators, plus this powerful Formation—today, they would likely lose their lives here.
Thinking of this, Su Qingtian hurriedly roared, "Chener, hurry up and run! Don't worry about us anymore."
But soon, his entire person was slightly stunned.
What did I just see!
In his line of sight, Su Chen was suppressing He Hongyuan and Li Feichi.
Su Chen's strength was this outrageous?
These two were both at the Middle Stage of the Soul Transformation Stage!
For you, at the Nascent Soul Stage, to be able to contend against one was already outrageous; why could you fight two at the same time?
He Hongyuan shouted loudly, "Family Head Wang, quickly slay those two! This brat's strength is somewhat strange."
Seeing the two of them working together yet still unable to take down Su Chen, Wang Ming instinctively roared, "Trash!"
He Hongyuan was furious. You come and try fighting him!
This Su Chen was fast, and his Physical Body was incredibly strong. Just as he prepared to cast a spell, Su Chen would get right in his face.
Trying to compete in Physical Body meant only taking a beating.
It was truly too suffocating.
Moreover, He Hongyuan always felt that Su Chen was toying with them.
Wang Ming withdrew his gaze. He looked toward Su Qingtian and the other again, and said in an indifferent tone, "Hurry up and kill them."
He Hongyuan and Li Feichi couldn't even beat Su Chen, which made him feel somewhat irritated. He even suspected whether the two were colluding with the Su Family.
The Four Great Families were only temporary allies to begin with. Once the Su Family was destroyed, they would return to a time of open fighting and secret maneuvering.
Originally, he had wanted to kill the two without sustaining any injuries, but now it seemed somewhat impossible.
Even a rabbit will bite when desperate, let alone two Soul Transformation Stage cultivators. If they really fought desperately, it was inevitable that someone would get injured, and that might give other families an opportunity.
Even if the people of Bright Moon City didn't make a move, there would be others who wanted to.
Bright Moon City was such a big cake; there were quite a few people eyeing it.
"Pfft!"
The long sword struck toward Su Qingtian. Unable to dodge in time, a huge gash was instantly cut into Su Qingtian's arm, and blood flowed out.
