48: Chapter 48 Who exactly are you?
Ma Changtian was keeping a close eye on the situation.
When he saw Lu Chen look over,
he couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart.
Was it this boy who mobilized the entire Alliance's power to capture him?
Who was he?
But that no longer mattered now.
He understood
that whether he could live or not
was entirely up to this boy to decide.
Ma Changtian immediately shouted,
"Sir, I don't know anything. It was all my son's doing. He didn't know that Young Miss's relationship with you either."
"If he knew that Young Miss was related to you, how would he have dared to do such a thing?"
"We were wrong. Please, Sir, be magnanimous and spare us."
Beside him, Ma Zongrui was also nodding frantically like a chicken pecking at grain.
He had long since been scared witless,
begging for mercy incessantly.
"Lord, spare my life! Lord, spare my life! One who does not know cannot be blamed!"
Lu Chen's gaze was ice-cold.
Hearing this, he only gave a cold laugh
and spoke.
"You shouldn't be apologizing to me."
Seeing the mocking smile on Lu Chen's face,
Ma Zongrui instantly understood.
He immediately knelt before Luo Nianwei and said,
"Nianwei, spare my life. I was wrong. I shouldn't have forced you. Please, put in a good word with your boyfriend and spare me."
"Your previous debts are all wiped clean. We can give you whatever you want. I beg of you..."
Swish!
Before he could finish his words,
a cold light flashed by.
Ma Zongrui's head rolled down from his shoulders.
Lu Chen slowly withdrew the two realms sword.
"Since you've apologized, you can go die now."
From the moment he moved against them,
their fate was already sealed.
Watching the bloody head roll onto the ground,
the surrounding people were instantly stunned.
Some of the more timid ones even fainted directly from the shock.
Everyone felt a chill run down their spines
as they looked at that expressionless face...
Cai Jiguang couldn't help but recall Vice Chairman Xiao Wanlong's words.
If this boy ever became an enemy of humanity, who knows what would happen.
So sharp and decisive.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Luo Nianwei was also stunned by this scene.
She timely covered Nian Yin's eyes with her hand.
At this point,
she no longer had any idea how to handle this incident.
But looking at Lu Chen's back,
she couldn't help but feel a sense of peace in her heart.
After killing Ma Zongrui,
Lu Chen didn't even look back once.
He walked directly up to Ma Changtian.
Ma Changtian saw his son's fallen head,
and anger, fear, and grief all surged into his heart at once.
His eyes turned red.
Knowing he wouldn't survive today,
he suddenly roared frantically,
"Kid, you forced my hand! Come to Hell with us!"
As he spoke,
the elemental energy around him boiled,
and he launched a bold sneak attack.
In that instant,
Luo Nianwei's face turned pale.
Ma Changtian was a genuine D-rank Warrior.
No matter how much of a Genius Lu Chen was,
it was impossible for him to block the full-force strike of a D-rank Warrior.
She subconsciously shouted,
"Lu Chen, watch out!"
However,
Lu Chen's expression remained very calm.
Because his actual combat power had also reached D-rank level one—no, D-rank level six.
Moreover, his Mental Energy was powerful.
Ma Changtian was only a D-rank level one warrior;
he could handle him easily.
Ma Changtian's entire body emitted a sharp golden light.
At D-rank,
warriors could already freely use elemental power
and Cultivate Elemental Skills related to elemental energy.
Ma Changtian was a gold-attribute D-rank Warrior.
He directly unleashed the Golden Light Technique upon Lu Chen.
Just as Lu Chen was preparing to defend,
he heard a furious shout.
"How dare you!"
Cai Jiguang had already made his move.
In an instant,
a massive pressure descended from the sky.
The rampaging gold elemental energy around them immediately calmed down.
Ma Changtian's body stood stiffly in place,
unable to move a muscle.
Even the golden light around him seemed to be frozen.
This was the pressure from a C-Rank Warrior.
Lu Chen could feel the terrifying power contained within that pressure.
Although it wasn't directed at him,
he could still sense its strength.
So... is this Cai Jiguang's true strength?
Heh.
An Immortal Master truly hides his light under a bushel.
Lu Chen swung the dual realm sword once more.
Ma Changtian followed the same path as his son.
Lu Chen looked at Cai Jiguang
and said,
"Thank you for your help, Supervisor Cai."
Cai Jiguang looked at Lu Chen with a suspicious gaze.
"You kid, why do I feel like even if I hadn't stepped in, you would have been fine?"
Lu Chen said with a smile,
"Supervisor Cai, you're really joking."
As he spoke,
he looked at the many experts around him.
He cupped his hands and said,
"Thank you, Seniors, for your help. I, Lu Chen, will remember today's kindness."
Hearing this, the experts
all responded with friendly smiles.
Some even had slightly excited expressions.
They naturally knew who Lu Chen was.
When the Vice Chairman visited today,
some of them were present.
Hearing the Vice Chairman's cold and firm announcement,
how could they not know the significance of the youth before them?
Therefore,
even if Lu Chen couldn't give them any practical reward,
they had all scrambled to come,
just to make their faces familiar to him.
Luo Nianwei and Shen Ci watched from the side with wide eyes.
Luo Nianwei thought to herself
that she really needed to have a good talk with Lu Chen
and ask him who exactly he was.
Afterward, Lu Chen thanked them again
and saw everyone off.
After Cai Jiguang and the others left,
Lu Chen walked to Luo Nianwei's side and said,
"Let's go back too. Nian Yin needs to rest."
Luo Nianwei nodded,
taking Nian Yin home.
The four of them returned home together.
Shen Ci took Nian Yin to her room
to let her rest well.
Luo Nianwei finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She looked at Lu Chen,
and saw the man sitting casually on the sofa... peeling an orange.
When did he get an orange from the fridge?
He looked so relaxed and casual,
just like he was in his own home.
However,
Luo Nianwei smiled.
For some reason,
this feeling... was very good.
She walked over
and spoke.
"Um, Lu Chen, I want to ask you something."
Lu Chen continued peeling the orange in his hand,
not even looking up as he said,
"What do you want to ask? Just ask directly."
Luo Nianwei thought for a moment
and asked,
"Who exactly are you? How can you mobilize so many experts—even C-rank experts were deployed?"
