Chapter 155 The Spirit Hall people? What if we kill them?
Su Chen had actually overheard what those people were saying, but he wasn't entirely sure.
But to my surprise, these people were really that arrogant.
Have they already demonstrated overwhelming strength, or are they still trying to threaten them?
The boy suddenly realized something.
Over the years, I have been focused on developing the Spirit Hall, cultivating, and researching, but I have neglected some very important things.
That is, people change.
Even before I intervened, the Spirit Hall was already a powerful force, and its subordinates were inevitably arrogant and domineering.
However, at that time, there was no single dominant force; rather, multiple forces were vying for power, so at least there was some restraint.
But it's different now.
Apart from Poseidon Island overseas, there is no other force on the mainland that poses a threat to the Spirit Hall.
So what will these people become?
Although one can prevent most degeneration under one's own strict guidelines, a person is still a person, and will eventually have evil thoughts and be driven by desires.
Besides, he really hadn't paid any attention to it.
"It was my fault."
The silver-haired boy sighed, turned the dying embers of the fire, and waited quietly for something.
Everyone, including the so-called young master, was pale and filled with terror. They already had some horrifying suspicions in their minds.
Click, click—
The wind and snow howled, but faint footsteps could be heard, along with a woman's loud shouts.
"Hurry, hurry, we're almost there!"
Upon hearing this voice, the expressions of everyone in the room immediately changed.
Su Chen seemed not to hear anything, and simply turned the firewood quietly.
The flickering sparks illuminated his handsome yet indifferent face.
"Young master, young master, I've brought the person over to you!"
Sister Lan, with a loud voice, excitedly walked into the ravine, but was stunned by the scene inside.
The young master of the Spirit Hall's high-ranking branch stood like a wooden stake with his subordinates, while a strange, otherworldly-looking young man sat there.
Who is he?
A fleeting doubt crossed Lan Jie's mind, but she had no time to think about it. She quickly pushed the terrified girl behind her forward and excitedly said, "Young Master, look, I've brought this little slut to you. Why don't you inspect the goods first?"
Xueyi was bound tightly with rubber bands, looking at the frivolous young master in despair.
She never imagined that Lan Jie, who had always been a close partner of her family, would betray her and hand her over to her enemy!
Why?
The girl murmured, tears streaming down her face, her beautiful eyes looking helplessly at Sister Lan, repeatedly asking, "Why?"
"Pah! You want to die? I don't!"
At this moment, Sister Lan was no longer the gentle girl she had been before. Instead, she looked disgusted and loathsome, pointing her finger at the girl's nose and cursing loudly.
"You really think the whole world revolves around you, you naive young lady? With your stupidity, you'll get your parents killed sooner or later. I might as well help your family climb the social ladder; maybe your parents will even thank me!"
As she spoke, she looked ingratiatingly at the stunned, vacant young master, "You agree, right, Young Master Tang?"
Young Master Tang:
His eyes darted around in terror as he looked at the silver-haired boy sitting quietly on the ground, a frantic roar raging in his mind.
Stop talking!!
The silver-haired boy's demeanor and attire reminded Young Master Tang of a legendary figure.
And the more you look at it, the more it resembles the real thing.
If it's that person...
Young Master Tang felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, and his soul seemed to have flown away.
"But I just wanted him to pay the price, is that wrong?"
The girl looked at Sister Lan with tears streaming down her face, finding it hard to believe how good this person had been to her before.
"That's right, that's right, of course it's right, but you're even less capable of bearing the consequences of this!!"
Lan Jie glared at the girl through gritted teeth. "Still think you're some kind of pampered young lady? You've offended Young Master Tang, do you think your family can still live here? You even want to go find the Akatsuki? You're not only courting death, you're dragging your parents and me down with you!!"
"Wake up, you stupid girl! That's the Spirit Hall! The Spirit Hall, currently the strongest power on the continent, and possibly the one that will rule the continent in the future, you know that?!"
Lan Jie's hysterical roar made the girl's pretty face turn pale, her mind shake, and she swayed as if she were about to collapse.
She lowered her head, looking dejected, her eyes quickly darkening as if she had accepted the cruel reality.
Lan Jie's words were like a sharp knife, tearing apart the protective layer that Xueyi's parents had built for her, and revealing the bloody reality to her.
"Isn't it a bit too cruel to make her grow up if she loses these things?"
A soft voice echoed through the mountain valley, reaching everyone's ears. Sister Lan and Xueyi subconsciously looked over and saw the ethereal young man turning the charcoal fire and speaking slowly.
"It's better to lose my body than to cause my whole family to lose their lives in the future."
Sister Lan shook her head indifferently, but a barely perceptible pain flashed in her eyes. She looked at Su Chen and asked cautiously, "And who are you? I advise you not to meddle in other people's business."
She also realized that something seemed amiss with the current situation.
Not only did Young Master Tang and his companions remain motionless, but the way they looked at the boy was clearly more out of fear.
"have a finger in the pie?"
The silver-haired boy chuckled and snapped his fingers lightly.
The charcoal fire flared up instantly, turning into a bright red flame. The temperature inside the mountain valley rose rapidly, and the surrounding snow melted away completely in an instant, revealing the tips of tiny green grass and tree buds.
Everyone: !!!
This incredible move stunned several people, including the heartbroken Xueyi.
"Who exactly are you? But Young Master Tang is... he's the son of the Vice Hall Master, a high-ranking official directly under the Spirit Hall. You... you'd better not do anything reckless. Once you get out of here, you'll die a horrible death."
Sister Lan swallowed hard and stammered.
"His Highness the Heavenly Saint Prince of the Spirit Hall is extremely protective of his own. If you harm anyone from the Spirit Hall, his followers will definitely not let you off!"
However, the silver-haired youth seemed not to hear him. He simply reached out and a black robe with auspicious cloud patterns was draped over his body.
"So, do you think it's okay for me to meddle in other people's business now?"
Su Chen shook his neck, walked straight to the dazed Xueyi, and looked at her, saying, "I heard you're looking for the Akatsuki, right?"
The girl nodded instinctively, but after glancing at Young Master Tang, she quickly shook her head.
"It's okay."
Su Chen tilted his head and snapped his fingers lightly.
Snapped!
With a crisp crack, the charcoal fire instantly swelled up, turning into a violent, surging flame that engulfed Young Master Tang and his companions in an instant.
