240: Chapter 244 A Powerful Figure in the Cultivation World?

"Let's use this boy as an example. If anyone speaks impertinently to me again, this will be their fate."

"Skin him, then shave his flesh from his bones bit by bit. Then, grind his bones into powder..."

He made a gesture toward the kneeling man.

That man.

Who was his servant.

Immediately chuckled with excitement.

A bloodthirsty glint flickered in his eyes.

He loved hearing the screams of young boys the most.

He wanted to slowly slice through his flesh.

Savoring every cry for mercy.

In a nearby alleyway.

Lu Chen and Luo Nianwei watched the entire event unfold.

Luo Nianwei's expression was grim.

Her hands were clenched into fists.

Her entire body trembled slightly from sheer rage.

She couldn't help but take a step forward.

However, Lu Chen gently placed a hand on her shoulder.

"No rush."

He spoke.

"Let's watch for a bit first."

The boy was still struggling violently.

His whole body was shaking.

His gaze was locked onto his father's motionless body.

Watching the blood pooling beneath him.

Tears streamed down the boy's Face uncontrollably.

He wanted to run to his father's side.

To see if he was alright.

But he was held fast by the burly man.

Unable to move even an inch.

His expression was one of helplessness.

Lu Chen and Luo Nianwei slowly walked toward the crowd.

As for why Lu Chen stopped Luo Nianwei.

It wasn't because she wasn't a match for the opponent.

That Hu Zheng's strength was only around E-Class Level Two.

Likely an Innate Martial Artist.

While Luo Nianwei, with his help.

And under Li Cang's special training.

Had already reached D-rank Level Ten.

She could completely crush the opponent.

The reason he stopped Luo Nianwei.

Was because he saw something else.

Just like the improvement of the Chaos Law.

His other four Supreme Laws had improved in sync with the Chaos Law.

Therefore, the Supreme Law.

The Law of Karma.

He had already comprehended six percent of it.

At this stage.

If he wished.

He could see the karmic threads on an individual.

Although he hadn't yet reached the level where he could identify and eliminate enemies.

Solely through these karmic threads.

But he could track these karmic threads.

And combine them with another Supreme Law, the Law of Destiny.

To infer possible outcomes.

Once his comprehension of these two Laws reached ten percent.

Those outcomes would quickly converge.

Most things would have a specific answer.

The reason Lu Chen stopped Luo Nianwei.

Was because he saw a crimson karmic thread above Hu Zheng's head.

That karmic thread emitted an extremely evil aura.

He tried to use the Law of Destiny to find the final destination of that karmic thread.

But received a warning from the Law of Destiny.

If he continued to track it.

He might run into trouble.

However.

That warning was relatively mild.

The opponent might be at the same level as him.

Or perhaps just slightly stronger.

So Lu Chen didn't want to be too hasty.

If possible.

He wanted to make a move tomorrow.

But if things couldn't be helped.

That was fine too.

Come on.

Lu Chen didn't care anyway.

It had been a long time since he'd had a hearty battle.

Soon.

They arrived at the scene.

The servant's expression was eager.

Clearly impatient to torment the child in his hands.

Lu Chen sighed.

"A twisted pervert, huh? Probably a servant of some cult or a wealthy family with poor upbringing. And the threat I felt from the Law of Destiny was caused by this guy."

Seeing the burly man about to sever the boy's hamstrings.

Lu Chen suddenly pressed down on his hand.

Everyone around was stunned.

Who was this person?

How dare he meddle in a Martial Artist's business?

The trembling vendors and onlookers.

Seeing this scene.

All began to whisper.

The man's eyes immediately became bloodshot and red.

Who dared to stop him?

Does this person want to die?

He looked at Lu Chen.

It was an exceptionally handsome young man.

Perhaps the most handsome man he had ever seen in his life.

Lu Chen smiled gently at the man.

"Brother, for the sake of my Face, could you let this child go?"

The man and the other servants were dumbfounded.

Even the young master, Great Master Hu Zheng, was slightly taken aback.

Then the crowd burst into laughter.

"For the sake of your Face? Hahahaha. Who the hell are you?"

Then he looked at Luo Nianwei.

With a lecherous look in his eyes, he said.

"Perhaps..."

*Pfft pfft!*

The man's head rolled off his body.

Lu Chen chopped it off directly with his hand.

Then he turned to look at Luo Nianwei.

"Babe, got a towel? Oops, I accidentally got some shit on my hand."

Luo Nianwei had seen this scene on other occasions before.

If anyone dared to disrespect her.

Lu Chen would always strike and kill.

This was the man who protected her.

He was so handsome.

Then, watching him ask her.

"Babe, got a towel?"

Luo Nianwei's little heart thumped wildly.

While excited in her heart.

She took out a towel from her space ring.

Lu Chen began to wipe the blood from his hand.

Then he looked at the man named Hu Zheng.

The air was silent.

A deathly silence fell over the surroundings.

So much so that one could hear everyone's heartbeat.

Hu Zheng also stared at him blankly.

His expression flickering uncertainly.
