If you surrender now, I can spare your life!
Su Chen's voice was not loud, but it was filled with a domineering aura.
However, to the others, it seed like Su Chen had gone mad.
Who is Li Hu?
He is Zhang Shu's personal bodyguard, with skills comparable to a Special Soldier!
Ten individuals at the human limit wouldn't be a match for him.
Su Chen asking him to surrender, wasn't that just insanity?
Guo Yuanyuan hadn't told Zhang Shu about Su Chen saving her, as she feared Zhang Shu would take special care of Su Chen once she knew.
Yet, Zhang Shu still appeared.
Li Hu looked at Su Chen with an expression as if he was looking at an idiot, just considering Su Chen as a novice calf unafraid of tigers.
It wasn't strange that Li Hu would look down on Su Chen; he was thirty-five years old this year and had only barely reached the Extraordinary Realm. How old was Su Chen?
He looked to be just over twenty.
Even if he was also a Martial Artist, he couldn't possibly match him.
Zhang Shu looked utterly hopeless.
If Su Chen had run away imdiately, perhaps she would have had a slim chance for revenge.
"Kid, since you want to court death, then I'll fulfill your wish!" said Li Hu, as he attempted to pull out the Dagger embedded in Wang Long's abdon.
However, Wang Long fiercely clutched Li Hu's hand, preventing him from breaking free.
"Kid, take Sister Zhang and run!" Wang Long roared with a fierce expression.
His abdominal clothes had long been soaked with blood.
"Wang Long, even if you die for her, so what? You're still her dog, not even worthy to carry her shoes." Seeing Wang Long desperately trying to create an opportunity for Zhang Shu, Li Hu sighed, shaking his head.
Bang!
Li Hu swept his foot at Wang Long's body, sending him flying back, crashing against the wall and then passing out.
After dealing with Wang Long, Li Hu was in no hurry to kill Zhang Shu; today she was already at on his chopping block.
His gaze fell on Su Chen.
Su Chen had not yet escaped.
Maybe he was scared stiff.
"Die!"
Li Hu, holding the Dagger, transford into a shadow, swiftly dashing toward Su Chen.
In the eyes of others, Li Hu's speed was as fast as lightning, but for Su Chen…
Too slow!
The corners of Su Chen's mouth slightly lifted, and in the next mont, his left hand reached out toward Li Hu's wrist.
So fast!
Li Hu was greatly shocked and tried to dodge, but it was already too late.
Su Chen grabbed Li Hu's hand holding the Dagger and fiercely twisted it, imdiately turning the Dagger around.
Puff!
The Dagger directly stabbed into Li Hu's shoulder.
Li Hu, worthy of being a Transcendent strongman, endured the pain and swung his left fist toward Su Chen's face.
Su Chen also raised his fist and exchanged blows.
Bang!
A dull sound followed by a wave of air spreading out, shattering all the cups and glasses on the table.
Li Hu staggered back several steps, his wrist bending at an odd angle, his face filled with horror.
"No, no way, you, you've reached..."
Li Hu couldn't finish his sentence, as his neck twisted, and he breathed his last.
Su Chen's fist had indeed collided with Li Hu's, but Li Hu was struck dead by that one punch.
This was no longer just about having great strength.
But the truth was...
Zhang Shu was completely dumbfounded.
She always thought Su Chen's frivolity and arrogance stemd from his being too young, headstrong, and fearless.
But she didn't expect Su Chen to be so powerful.
With one punch, he sent his own bodyguard flying!
Her bodyguard, a genuine special soldier, had even won awards in military competitions.
Moreover, Su Chen was only in his twenties.
Excluding those freaks from Emperor City, she had never seen soone so strong.
Ever since eting those freaks of Emperor City, Zhang Shu always believed that only such freaks were worthy of her daughter.
Therefore, upon learning from Guo Hong that Guo Yuanyuan had gotten quite close to a salesman, she imdiately ca over personally.
However, she never expected Li Hu to suddenly betray her.
Fortunately...
Even now, Zhang Shu found it hard to accept the fact that Su Chen had sent her bodyguard flying with a punch.
But what would her expression be once she finds out that Li Hu was not just sent flying, but actually killed?
"That, esteed mayor and beauty, please don't keep staring at like this, I'll get embarrassed. Moreover, it seems like your subordinate is going to kick the bucket," Su Chen remarked, seeing Zhang Shu staring intently at him.
At this mont, Zhang Shu snapped back to reality and imdiately rose to check on Wang Long's injuries.
"Wang Long, are you alright!" Zhang Shu shook Wang Long.
Wang Long regained consciousness, with fresh blood dripping from his mouth. He glanced at Li Hu lying beside him and then at Su Chen, seeming to understand what happened.
"Sister, I... I might not make it, I can't protect you anymore..." With each word Wang Long spoke, blood spattered from his lips.
"You won't die..." Despite being accustod to witnessing various scenes, Zhang Shu broke down crying.
Wang Long had been with her for eight years, serving not just as a bodyguard, but like family.
Over these years, if it weren't for Wang Long's selfless protection, she might have already been dead.
"Sister, don't grieve..." Wang Long managed a smile uglier than a cry, then looked at Su Chen and said, "Young man, since you could defeat Li Hu, it shows you're at least a Transcendent. From now on, I'm entrusting my sister to your care..."
This scene was indeed very touching.
It truly felt like an entrustnt of care as in White Emperor City.
Su Chen gave a slightly troubled expression and said, "Buddy, I have a principle when I work as a bodyguard."
"What principle?"
"It's to only provide close-protection."
"We do provide close-protection."
"Cough cough, still not close enough..."
Wang Long understood what Su Chen ant.
He knew that he was giving 24-hour personal protection, and except entering Zhang Shu's bedroom, he was almost shadowed everywhere she went.
If that wasn't close enough, what would be?
This guy's ambition wasn't small.
Zhang Shu, too distressed, didn't bother to argue with Su Chen.
She just held Wang Long's hand, sobbing.
"Sister, don't be sad. I can see that this young man is very righteous. He will definitely take good care of you..."
He and Li Hu weren't worthy of Zhang Shu, but that didn't an Su Chen wasn't.
He and Li Hu were also Transcendents, but they were already too old, and wouldn't achieve much in life.
As for Su Chen, young as he was, having defeated Li Hu, his future was boundless.
He was barely worthy of Zhang Shu.
"No, I want you..." Seeing Wang Long's breath growing fainter, Zhang Shu's expression was imnsely sorrowful.
Seeing the deeply affectionate pair, Su Chen helplessly shook his head.
He said, "Forget it, I've always been lazy and I'm not really suited to be a bodyguard. Better you protect your sister yourself."
Having said that, Su Chen walked over to Wang Long, and with a fierce motion, pressed his palm against Wang Long's abdon.
Aside from granting him an Undying Body, Black Stone had given him another ability...
