272: Chapter 265 It’s what you said 272: Chapter 265 It’s what you said As Su Chen began to speak, formally apologizing on behalf of Ji Linger, Zhong Tiantang and the other eleven people were first stunned, then they stared deeply at Su Chen, their eyes filled with confusion, puzzlent, shock…
They couldn’t understand.
Wasn’t it said that Su Chen was extrely strong and incredibly domineering?
So why did he submit and apologize so easily?
In the minds of Zhong Tiantang and the others, if Su Chen indeed sheltered Ji Linger and possessed peerless and terrifying strength, at this mont, his attitude should have been extrely tough, even to the point of taking imdiate action.
But the reality was…
Could it be…
Su Chen’s amiable attitude couldn’t help but lead Zhong Tiantang and the others to a rising suspicion — was Su Chen only known by reputation?
Did he not dare?!
After all, the people of the Inner Courtyard had not witnessed with their own eyes Su Chen’s monts of overwhelming headmaster Mo Chenyuan or his fists striking down Flying God Peak; they had only heard about it.
Although they mostly believed it, so doubts lingered.
Now, Su Chen’s kind attitude only intensified and magnified these doubts.
“Brother Chen, why did you apologize?” Ji Linger was unhappy, “It’s clear there’s no need to apologize to them…”
“Do you still want to protect you and cover you?
Then listen to , otherwise, leave my attic right now!” Su Chen’s voice suddenly beca very serious and solemn.
He did owe Ji Linger a huge favor, and indeed promised to shelter and protect her, but that did not an he would let Ji Linger run wild and bully others.
“You… you… why are you being so fierce?” Ji Linger was first taken aback, then bit her lip, her voice becoming quieter, seemingly a bit scared, but more than that, she felt wronged.
At the sa ti.
“Since Young Master Su has apologized for Miss Ji, then I, Sun Mi, will give this face,” one of the eleven people outside the attic suddenly cupped his hands and spoke.
This person was dressed in Yellow Fir Brocade Clothes, tall and straight in stature, with an extraordinary bearing, in the Mysterious Qi Grandmaster Realm Middle Stage.
His weapon was sowhat special — a Single Halberd.
“Thank you, Young Master Sun!” Su Chen responded amiably with a nod, likewise cupping his hands towards Sun Mi.
“Hmph… I knew I shouldn’t have been rciful.
I should have released all the Red-spotted Carps you were raising at Yunqing Peak!” Ji Linger muttered, very displeased.
Ji Linger’s mutterings weren’t quiet, everyone heard them.
You could see Sun Mi trembling, his face changing colors repeatedly, nearly dying of anger, and fright.
The Red-spotted Carp was a fine thing, very beautiful, very clever, and, more importantly, extrely rare.
Sun Mi’s sole hobby was fishkeeping.
It took him a whole five years to find four Red-spotted Carps, each one as precious to him as his own life.
Ji Linger had already released one, but thankfully three remained.
Although it pained him, he could still accept it, which is why he gave face to Su Chen.
Who would have thought…
this Little Witch Ji Linger was also harboring the idea of releasing his remaining three Red-spotted Carps.
Sun Mi was both angry and helpless.
“Ji Linger, I said shut your mouth!!!” Su Chen apologized once again with a cup of hands, and then scolded Ji Linger, his voice becoming even more solemn and serious.
“If you want to shut up, then fine.
You just know how to scold , you’re not the Great Demon King at all, you don’t deserve to be the Great Demon King…” Ji Linger beca even more angry and aggrieved, tears streaming down, her little mouth pouting very high.
Sun Mi shook his head and didn’t say anything more, but he stepped back a bit to distance himself from Zhong Tiantang and the others, indicating that he no longer wanted to be involved.
Following Sun Mi’s withdrawal,
Then,
Another four or five people successively stepped forward to accept Su Chen’s apology on behalf of Ji Linger.
These few individuals were first and foremost not too ruthlessly bullied by Ji Linger; furthermore, their strength wasn’t too formidable, typically ranked around the top hundred in the Inner Courtyard, far from having the confidence of people like Zhong Tiantang.
At this point.
Only Zhong Tiantang, Si Lian, Lu Jiulong, Zhang Chen, and Zheng E had not expressed their opinion, which ant, in other words, they did not accept Su Chen’s apology on behalf of Ji Linger.
“Su Chen!!!
This matter has nothing to do with you, and we do not accept your apology.
I advise you not to ddle in other people’s business!” the next mont, Zhong Tiantang said with a very firm voice.
“Exactly…” Si Lian nodded vigorously, his eyes red as he stared at Ji Linger: “Little Witch, do you think Taixuan Academy is your ho to wreak havoc as you please?
In the past, you could ss around because you hadn’t provoked , Si Lian.
Now that you have, I advise you to imdiately return the Heavenly Decay Sword to and apologize to , Si Lian—kneel and apologize!”
As soon as Si Lian spoke.
The atmosphere, which had not been too tense, suddenly beca heavy.
What Si Lian said was very harsh.
Especially that phrase ‘kneel and apologize.’
“Go fuck yourself, you think this lady will kneel and apologize to you?
Are you dreaming?!” Ji Linger retorted furiously, lifting her head to glare at Si Lian and shouted.
“Kneel and apologize, hmm…
Young Master Si, I thought you were joking.
Let’s move on from this topic…” Su Chen also spoke up, chuckling as he did.
“Joking?
Do you think I’m joking?
Su Chen!!!
Others might fear you, but I, Si Lian, do not!” Si Lian retorted dismissively, looking down his nose at him.
“Is that so?” Su Chen’s smile faded slightly as he narrowed his eyes.
However, all of a sudden.
Before Su Chen could react.
“Who dares to lay a hand on my Wuo Yu’s fiancee?” A deep, domineering voice suddenly filled everyone’s ears, with just the voice alone giving the impression of mountains collapsing, resounding thunder.
And with the arrival of this voice, a figure slowly approached.
This was a man in green hemp cloth, about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, not tall, with an unremarkable physique, yet he exuded an aura as solid as a mountain.
And oddly, when this man walked, there wasn’t the slightest sound of footsteps, yet it was clear to see that each step he took on the flagstone pavent left a footprint.
What was even more terrifying was that each footprint was almost exactly the sa depth.
In an instant.
He walked over to where Si Lian, Zhong Tiantang, and the others were standing, his deep, quiet, and unyielding eyes sweeping towards Si Lian: “You want Ling’er to kneel?!!!
Was it you who said that?”
As his words fell.
Without giving Si Lian a chance to speak.
Wuo Yu made his move.
And with this move.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh…
There was a feeling as if a fierce wind was sweeping across, like the beginning of heaven and earth.
Clearly, Wuo Yu was executing a simple fist technique, even the moves and forms were not fast or complicated.
But within his large and expansive punches, there was an aura of seamless unity, devoid of any flaws, with an invincible attack.
What was even more frightening was that almost everyone, including Si Lian and Zhong Tiantang, couldn’t figure out in that split second how to confront Wuo Yu’s fist.
It seed as if all they could see before them was Wuo Yu’s fist, or as if the world before them was made of cotton, unable to muster any strength.
