Chapter 2041: Chapter 2041: That’s All?
This newly unlocked secret technique in the Laws Forbidden Tome is called the "Prison Heavenly Finger." With one finger, it imprisons all things!
Of course, if what you’re imprisoning is a person, then whether the imprisoned can break free or not depends on the Cultivation strength of both the caster and the target.
As for how effective this secret technique really is, Su Chen still can’t say, because he hasn’t fully mastered it yet, let alone tested it.
But based on his high hopes for the Laws Forbidden Tome, and how much Zi Mei values this book, it shouldn’t disappoint him!
Whether it’s the third move "Formless and Invisible" of the Dayan Sword Technique, or the new Chapter’s secret technique "Prison Heavenly Finger" in the Laws Forbidden Tome, Su Chen is full of anticipation, but he’s not exactly in a rush.
Right now, as he studies this "Prison Heavenly Finger," he gradually becomes engrossed...
...
Although the East Courtyard of Lingwu Sect is about the same size as the West Courtyard, overall it’s at more than one level higher.
That’s only natural; after all, the East Courtyard is all Inner Sect Disciples!
And the residential area of the East Courtyard looks even more spacious and exquisite than the West Courtyard’s, especially the True Disciples’ quarters—each person has their own dedicated lodging building.
At this moment, in one of the buildings near the middle, a man is cultivating, and a few others are sitting nearby, chatting carefully.
They don’t dare speak loudly, afraid of disturbing the man’s Cultivation.
"Right, how come those two haven’t come back from teaching that brat a lesson?"
Someone asked in a low voice.
"Yeah, it’s been so long already. Isn’t he just some Outer Sect brat?"
"Relax, it should be soon. That kind of brat, he really thinks killing Xu Ting means he can overturn the heavens?"
"Exactly. We just wait patiently."
The others all chimed in quietly.
Right at this moment, a wave of footsteps sounded.
"They’re back!!!"
Hearing the footsteps, everyone’s eyes lit up, but then they all froze a little.
The one who walked in was someone they knew, someone from their circle, but not one of the two who’d gone to deal with that brat.
"Oh, everyone’s here."
The newcomer spoke as soon as he saw them.
"Shh!"
Someone immediately glanced at the man who was cultivating, reminding the newcomer not to be loud.
"Right, what are you doing here?"
Another person asked.
"Something happened. Not far outside the Sect, someone found the corpses of Zhang Tao and Zhou Wu."
The newcomer said in a low voice.
As soon as the words fell, everyone was dumbfounded!
Zhang Tao and Zhou Wu... corpses?!
Weren’t those two going to deal with that brat?
How could they be dead?!
A freshly inducted Outer Sect Disciple actually killed two of the top-notch figures in the Inner Sect? That’s way too unreasonable, isn’t it?
And he killed both of them?
"Pfft!"
The man who was cultivating spat out a mouthful of fresh blood the instant he heard this news!
Even though the others were speaking softly, he still heard it clearly!
"Young Master Wu!"
Seeing him spit blood, the others were all startled and hurriedly ran over.
Wu Che waved his hand, indicating he was fine, then looked at the newcomer and asked:
"Is the news reliable?"
"Lots of people are talking about it. Eight or nine out of ten, it’s true."
The man replied.
Wu Che was genuinely shocked!
"Could it really be that this brat has mastered a Divine Sense Attack, and thus seized absolute initiative?"
If he’d scoffed at this speculation before, now he had no choice but to seriously consider the possibility!
After a moment, a terrifying gleam shot out from his eyes!
"So what if he has? In the end, it’s still a crooked path!"
It had to be said, Wu Che is a man of extreme confidence—one could even call it arrogance.
However, this was the first time he truly began to take this young man seriously!
"Young Master Wu, let me go meet this brat. I don’t believe he can really overturn the heavens!"
Someone immediately seized the chance to speak.
"Yeah, I’m willing to go too, let that brat see what real strength is."
Someone echoed right away, and the others all voiced their indignation, expressing their willingness to take action and deal with that guy named Su Chen.
"No need. In a few days, I’ll go myself."
Wu Che said casually.
He’d just spit blood; while it wasn’t a big problem, his meridians were somewhat disturbed and needed a bit of time to recover.
Hearing this, everyone was greatly shocked!
Young Master Wu was going to act personally?!
He was taking that brat way too seriously, wasn’t he?
Still, they didn’t say anything more, because they knew Wu Che doesn’t like anyone interfering with his decisions!
...
Su Chen, on the other hand, had no idea that Wu Che had already decided to personally make a move. He was still studying the "Prison Heavenly Finger," and by the next day, he felt he was already seeing the threshold.
But at this time, the entire Lingwu Sect was boiling because of him!
Rumors had already spread that Wu Che was going to personally meet that Outer Sect newcomer who was making all the waves!
Many people were extremely surprised. Given Wu Che’s status in Lingwu Sect, he was actually going to make a personal move against a newcomer—this was truly unheard of!
But when they thought of the deaths of Zhang Tao and Zhou Wu, it seemed they understood a bit.
At this moment, Gu Yunyan hurriedly rushed into the West Courtyard, heading straight for the residential area.
The Outer Sect Disciples all found it strange to see Gu Yunyan show up here, and watched as he quickly entered a certain Inn Pavilion.
"Miss Gu, what brings you here?"
Su Chen was still studying the "Prison Heavenly Finger." Seeing Gu Yunyan arrive, he was a bit surprised.
Last time when she escorted him to the West Courtyard, she’d stopped outside the residential area, saying it wasn’t convenient to go in.
So why was she not only entering the residential area now, but coming straight to his Inn Pavilion?!
"And you’re still sitting here so calmly!"
Gu Yunyan looked at him anxiously and said:
"Do you have any idea how serious things are right now?"
"Miss Gu, don’t worry, just speak slowly."
Su Chen stood up, poured her a cup of tea and smiled.
Gu Yunyan really was thirsty; she gulped down half a cup in one go, then said:
"Do you know that Wu Che’s people have already spread the word—Wu Che is going to personally meet you."
"Oh, that’s all? From the way you look, I thought something big had happened."
Su Chen laughed and said:
"I’ve been waiting for him, actually. At least he didn’t keep me waiting too long."
He was telling the truth. Dragging this out endlessly was a hassle; better to settle it all at once!
But hearing this, Gu Yunyan was about to cry from anxiety!
He actually said "that’s all," and from the sound of it, to him, this was just some trivial little matter!
He even said he’d been waiting for Wu Che—this was way too arrogant!
He had no idea how terrifying Wu Che really was!
In fact, the reason Gu Yunyan came this time was precisely because Wu Che had already decided to make a move, so things like avoiding suspicion were meaningless now!
She also knew that her coming here wouldn’t help much, but if she didn’t come at least once, she truly wouldn’t feel at ease.
