580: Is royalty not to be trifled with?

Su Chen turned his head to look at the weak-aura woman. The aura he sensed on Fox Mountain before was exactly the same as hers, but this time, the aura was extremely faint.

Su Chen also noticed that the woman's life force seemed to be constantly weakening, and it wouldn't be long before she truly died.

A solemn look flashed in his eyes. Another coincidence? Was it another conspiracy?

Everything was too coincidental.

However, he was too lazy to bother with these things. If it really was a conspiracy, at most he would just start over again. The items obtained through Sign-in were mainly related to time, and whether he lived or died didn't affect the passage of time.

The aura on the woman quickly disappeared again, leaving no trace, as if she had completely vanished from this world.

Su Chen's figure instantly vanished. He appeared before the few people and then said indifferently:

"I want this person."

His voice carried an unquestionable tone, leaving no room for discussion.

The two men dragging the woman saw this and immediately frowned. They didn't act unreasonably right away, but first scanned Su Chen up and down, then said coldly:

"Fellow Daoist, our Young Master is from the Imperial Family. Are you sure you want to oppose our Young Master?"

One of them had a slightly cold expression and an impolite tone. The Imperial Family was the largest in the Nine Star Empire. Even if their Young Master's status in the Imperial Family wasn't high, he wasn't someone just anyone could provoke.

As the saying goes, even when beating a dog, one must look at its owner. His Imperial Family background was enough to deter many from provoking him.

Su Chen's eyes turned slightly cold, and two gusts of fierce wind shot out, instantly killing both men.

Killing such characters was not excessive. Su Chen was too lazy to waste words with them. The Nine Star Empire Imperial Family had a considerable reputation in the Nine Star Empire and even the entire Central Continent, but what threat did they pose to him?

"What the, who is this person? He dares to kill Young Master Li Liang's people?"

"Li Liang is a member of the Imperial Family after all. Doesn't he fear offending the Imperial Family by doing this?"

"Exactly. The Imperial Family cannot be humiliated. Opposing Li Liang for a woman seems meaningless. I see this kid is only at the Half-step Profound Immortal Realm, right? He's truly courting death."

There were many Cultivators in Shuiyue City now, so what Su Chen did naturally couldn't escape their eyes. Many people immediately looked over.

If Su Chen's strength was great, they wouldn't say anything, but a Half-step Profound Immortal, with such mediocre strength, actually dared to provoke the Imperial Family?

Wasn't this simply courting death?

Some people knew Li Liang's identity. Although he was just a Collateral Branch member of the Imperial Family, even a Collateral Branch member still had some of the Li family Bloodline.

Just like Li Menger, although she wasn't highly regarded within the Imperial Family, when she came to Fengyang County, many people would still give her some Face out of respect for the Imperial Family.

They had rarely seen someone like Su Chen who directly killed people.

"Kid, you're courting death!"

Suddenly, a furious roar sounded. The distant Void Realm cracked open, and two figures slowly emerged. The leader's Face was grim, and his eyes were filled with chilling killing intent.

The person beside him had a powerful aura and was at the Half-step Grand Unity Golden Immortal Realm.

In the Imperial Clan, a Dao Protector being an Immortal King indicates that this person's Bloodline is extremely noble, a top-tier Imperial Prince.

Being able to bring a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal also indicates that their status is among the most prominent in the Imperial Family.

Someone like him, who brings a Half-step Grand Unity Golden Immortal as a guard, is considered among the lowest in the Imperial Family.

However, in Fengyang County, it was still fine. After all, in this place, a Grand Unity Golden Immortal was already considered a decent fighting force. For example, in their Haoran Sect, a Grand Unity Golden Immortal was already an Elder-level figure.

Li Liang looked at Su Chen coldly: "Do you know whose people they are?"

Su Chen said indifferently: "Yours?"

"Presumptuous!"

Li Liang was very displeased with Su Chen's dismissive tone. He was a member of the Imperial Clan. Since he came to Shuiyue City, who hadn't greeted him with a smile? Even those Grand Unity Golden Immortals wouldn't speak to him like this, would they?

"Kid, state your family background, otherwise you will surely die today."

He hadn't completely lost his mind. There were still some Grand Unity Golden Immortals in Shuiyue City, from various major forces. If Su Chen had a Grand Unity Golden Immortal behind him, as long as he apologized and admitted his mistake today, Li Liang wouldn't be unable to let Su Chen go.

If he had no background, then he would naturally be killed directly.

Su Chen's Face showed a hint of disdain: "That powerful? What if I say I have no background?"

Li Liang's eyes darkened, and his tone was angry: "This Young Master will give you one last chance. Let your Elder come out, otherwise... you will die."

His tone was condescending, as if he could control Su Chen's life. In the Imperial Family, his status was indeed low, but outside, his status was definitely very high, especially in Shuiyue City.

"This kid is too reckless, isn't he? Killing people indiscriminately without understanding anything."

"Young people are like this. They'll grow after experiencing some things."

Many people shook their heads and sighed. Even if Su Chen didn't die today, he would probably lose Face. After all, Su Chen's demeanor didn't look like that of a Loose Cultivator without any backing.

There must be someone behind him.

But, what if there was someone?

In the Nine Star Empire, who could defeat the Imperial Family?

Su Chen's eyes narrowed slightly. Just as he was about to make a move to kill, Third Elder's figure appeared in front. He raised his hand and unleashed a fierce gust of wind, sending Li Liang flying backward, along with the Half-step Grand Unity Golden Immortal beside him.

"Young Master Li Liang, speaking to someone from my Haoran Sect like this is perhaps a bit too arrogant, isn't it?"

Haoran Sect?

Many people's expressions immediately changed. This was a popular Sect in Fengyang County, almost universally known. It could be said that within Fengyang County, besides the County Governor, they were the only two Immortal King powerhouses.

No wonder they could show so little Face to Li Liang.

Li Liang staggered, emerging disheveled, his Face full of venomous resentment: "Good, good, good. Haoran Sect, I've remembered you."

"Go!"

His heart was filled with extreme rage, but the Haoran Sect was indeed not someone he could provoke. Unless they killed him, the Imperial Family would only turn a blind eye.

"Did I agree to let you go?"

Su Chen's cold voice rang out. This woman was connected to him, so he naturally couldn't let her be bullied.

He directly reached out and grabbed, and Li Liang's body exploded in mid-air, his aura dissipating on the spot.

Su Chen said to the guard with a cold tone: "Tell the Imperial Family that I killed him. If they have any objections, they can come to Haoran Sect to find me."

Killing intent was released from his body, accompanied by an extremely terrifying sense of oppression...
