157: Chapter 157 Is it too late to regret it now?

Rooftop of the building.

Long San, Ye Nantian, and Police Chief Lu Tianxing were all dumbfounded.

They were all eyewitnesses and clearly saw that Qin Chuan's sword strike seemed to have been intentionally retracted, not blocked by the protective seal.

"Did Supreme Qin retract his sword at the end because he didn't dare to kill Elder Wei, or was it because… he wanted that protective seal?" Long San asked with some confusion.

Everyone fell silent for a moment. Ye Nantian said, "I think he wanted that protective seal."

Long San and Police Chief Lu Tianxing couldn't help but look at Ye Nantian.

They wondered how Ye Nantian seemed to understand Supreme Qin so well.

Earlier, when they were speculating whether Qin Chuan would attack, only Ye Nantian was very certain, and then Qin Chuan really came.

Seeing the two looking at him, Ye Nantian explained, "I once saw with my own eyes Supreme Qin cut a nuclear missile in half with this sword strike!"

"Think about it, how could a sword strike that could even cut down a nuclear missile be blocked by a Magical Artifact? Even if this Magical Artifact were top-tier, it wouldn't work."

This explanation was very reasonable.

It made Police Chief Lu Tianxing and Long San look at the building where Qin Chuan had just disappeared, and they couldn't help but shudder.

"I have other matters to attend to, I shall take my leave!"

Thinking of something, Ye Nantian cupped his hands toward Long San and Police Chief Lu Tianxing and left the rooftop.

Only Police Chief Lu Tianxing and Long San were left, looking at each other. Even now, they could still see a trace of fear and shock on each other's faces.

…

Yunding Villa.

Third-floor balcony.

Shen Wangshu, Su Yingxia, and Yang Siyi had not yet left.

The three of them were still shaken, especially when Shen Wangshu said that Qin Chuan was going to defy the world, Su Yingxia couldn't help but become nervous.

"Wangshu, if he really kills Wei Jingyuan, what will the consequences be?" Su Yingxia couldn't help asking.

Shen Wangshu didn't know much about the Martial Arts World, but she could draw a conclusion based on what she had learned about martial arts recently.

"That would mean making an enemy of the entire Martial Arts World!"

Hiss!

Su Yingxia gasped.

However, the fact that Qin Chuan was Supreme Qin today gave the three girls too much shock. They couldn't figure out how Qin Chuan had stepped into the Peak of the Martial Arts World at such a young age.

And now, he was going to kill Wei Jingyuan, who was at the pinnacle of martial arts power.

The three of them didn't speak again, just falling into silence.

Until Qin Chuan returned.

"Qin Chuan, did you kill Wei Jingyuan?" Su Yingxia asked immediately.

"No." Qin Chuan shook his head slightly.

All three girls subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

"It seems Qin Chuan still knows that Wei Jingyuan cannot be killed," Shen Wangshu thought to herself.

Not long after, the three girls left Yunding Villa. Except for Su Yingxia, they were all a bit disheartened, but now they were each returning to their own homes.

When Shen Wangshu returned home, her mind was still filled with Qin Chuan's immortal-like demeanor.

"Daughter, where have you been?"

Seeing Shen Wangshu return, Aunt Meng was still quite worried. "You left without saying anything, and you didn't answer when I called. Did something happen?"

Shen Shihua was also in the living room; he was also worried about his daughter.

Shen Wangshu looked at her parents and asked seriously, "Dad, Mom, if there was such a person around you, and everyone thought he was very ordinary, just an inconspicuous young man, but then one day you discovered that this person actually had heaven-reaching abilities, then… is it too late for those who previously mocked and looked down on him to regret it?"

"You silly child, why are you suddenly talking about this?"

Aunt Meng felt it was inexplicable, but suddenly she noticed that her daughter was very serious, and there was even a mist in her eyes, so she became serious too.

"If you regret it now, I'm afraid it's already too late," she gave her answer.

Shen Shihua pondered for a moment and replied, "It is indeed too late. The tides turn every thirty years."

Hearing her parents' answer, Shen Wangshu smiled bitterly.

Yes, it was already too late.

If it were before, she had no feelings for Qin Chuan at all, and even looked down on him a bit.

But after today?

The other party was so excellent, even more excellent than any man she had ever seen.

How could she not regret it?

But she also knew that after today, it would be almost impossible for her to get close to Qin Chuan again.

People are just like that. When the other party is low-key and unassuming, they think they are just a small fry and look down on them no matter what.

But once the other party suddenly soars into the sky, from this moment on, perceptions and impressions will change completely.

Sometimes, you even think that some of the things the other party said that made people feel ridiculous now seem very reasonable when you think back on them.

Shen Wangshu didn't say anything more and silently returned to her room.

"What on earth happened today?"

Looking at her daughter's back, a look of worry appeared on Aunt Meng's face.

Early morning.

A figure came to Yunding Villa.

Qin Chuan slowly opened his eyes.

He was now in the Divine Sea realm, and his Divine Sense range was quite wide. When someone approached Yunding Villa, he could perceive it immediately.

"Come in."

The figure then entered Yunding Villa.

"Supreme Qin!"

The visitor was Ye Nantian.

After saying goodbye to Long San and Police Chief Lu Tianxing, he came to this Yunding Villa.

"What is it?" Qin Chuan asked indifferently.

"Supreme Qin…"

Ye Nantian hesitated for a moment and said, "After today, Wei Jingyuan has run away. Based on my understanding of this Elder, he will definitely not let this go."

"As an Elder of the Earth Martial Arts Alliance, although Wei Jingyuan's strength has not reached the Eighth Realm Peak, his connections and background in the Martial Arts World are by no means comparable to that of an ordinary Martial Artist."

"This is why even Land Immortals have to be wary of Wei Jingyuan; it is not because of how strong his strength is, but because of the network of relationships behind him."

"And you… are the first person who dared to kill him!"

Qin Chuan did not speak.

Ye Nantian pondered for a moment before continuing, "Supreme Qin, today I could feel that your sword strike could clearly break through the protective seal. Why did you…"

"Not kill him?" Qin Chuan asked for him.

"Yes." Ye Nantian nodded slightly.

"Compared to killing him, letting a tiger return to the mountain is more troublesome."

Qin Chuan flipped his palm, and the protective seal hovered in his palm.

Seeing the protective seal, Ye Nantian confirmed his previous guess. It was indeed so.

Qin Chuan smiled. "The material of this protective seal is not simple. It has great use for me. If I just broke the protective seal like that, it would be a pity."

"Compared to the protective seal, Wei Jingyuan's life is not worth mentioning."

Speaking of this, a spirit of looking down on the world suddenly radiated from his body.

"Besides, the person I want to kill cannot escape!"

Hearing this, Ye Nantian's expression suddenly shook, his eyes widened, and he showed incredible shock.

"You… you are going to go to the capital to kill him?!"
