Chapter 1265: Chapter 1264: Unworthy of Living in This World
As they spoke, a person suddenly slipped behind Su Changfeng, appearing to be ready to attack stealthily, but he remained unmoving like a mountain, with no intention to dodge, nor did he react instinctively as they imagined.
It was only after several seconds that Su Changfeng seemed startled, quickly turning around to look.
"What do you mean by this?" Su Changfeng said defensively.
The opponent couldn’t help but frown, thinking that if he had really struck him just now, Su Changfeng would be dead, yet even in the face of such danger, Su Changfeng made no instinctive response, as if completely unaware of his movements.
Could it be, he’s really just an ordinary person?
The trio exchanged a look and silently left the same way they had come.
However, that didn’t mean they didn’t suspect Su Changfeng, but rather they planned to investigate carefully to see if Su Changfeng was deliberately deceiving them, especially concerning Su Changfeng’s identity, which they must thoroughly investigate.
Su Changfeng’s reputation in Tianshui City was not widely known, but most people knew about him, especially after he was driven out of the Shen Family, which made many see clearly how worthless Su Changfeng was.
He left the Shen Family with his tail between his legs, seen by many, so the trio soon uncovered Su Changfeng’s identity.
He was the Shen Family’s son-in-law for a time but was soon kicked out, mocked and humiliated; even Shen Rushuang’s choice to marry Su Changfeng was merely to use him as a shield to fend off Wang Junyi’s harassment.
The investigation revealed that Su Changfeng did not lie about Wang Junyi causing trouble for him. Wang Junyi had always liked Shen Rushuang, which was well known in Tianshui City. Given that his beloved married a worthless man, how could he swallow that?
"Could this Su Changfeng indeed not be lying?"
"From the information we have, he indeed has no skills, publicly humiliated, which no expert could tolerate."
"Yet, I always feel uneasy; this Su Changfeng seems not as simple as he looks on the surface."
"To understand this, it’s quite simple; just kill him. If he remains calm at the last moment, then indeed we’ve found the wrong person. If indeed he’s just an ordinary person, then killing him wouldn’t count as much, rather saving us lots of trouble."
Su Changfeng didn’t realize that even after they uncovered his background, they weren’t entirely convinced and even planned to kill him to test him.
That night, Su Changfeng noticed some people had returned, specifically choosing the night, clearly indicating their intentions.
Facing this outcome, Su Changfeng felt quite helpless, as he had tried to steer things simply, but the situation seemed far from his expectations.
As the trio swaggered into Su Changfeng’s room, Su Changfeng sat up helplessly and said, "You must have figured out who I am; even knowing I lack skills, you still won’t let me go?"
"Since you have no skills, living on earth will only invite ridicule; you might as well die elegantly."
"Is it simply because I lack skills that I don’t deserve to live?" Su Changfeng’s voice gradually grew cold.
"If you die, it will help us solve a big trouble. Dying like this would also make you, a worthless man, quite valuable."
Su Changfeng got off the bed, flexed his wrist, sighed, and said, "Ah, you say, Seven-star Experts aren’t easy to come by, yet they seek death for no reason; are people so bored nowadays?"
Su Changfeng’s words shocked the people opposite him; if he really were worthless, knowing their intentions, he would surely beg for mercy, not remain so calm, still directly pointing out their ranks.
Before they could react, a domineering murderous intent swept over them, collectively sinking their hearts. They were now Seventh Rank Experts, yet the only more formidable existence would make them tremble.
"You deliberately deceived us."
"Who exactly are you, and what rank are you now?"
"I’m telling you, don’t act rashly; if we don’t return safely, Xingluo will definitely investigate thoroughly, and you’ll surely face punishment."
"Earlier, I reasoned with you nicely, but you wouldn’t listen, insisting on coming to seek death; don’t blame me for being rude. As for Xingluo, though I dislike trouble, I’m not afraid of trouble." After saying that, Su Changfeng vanished.
He was so fast that ordinary people couldn’t even see. In the eyes of ordinary people, Seventh Rank Experts are unimaginable beings; however, in the eyes of Late Stage Third Rank Experts, dealing with them is a breeze.
Only a shadow was seen before one person fell limply, without even the faintest sound.
Seeing this, the remaining two were utterly terrified, killed a Seventh Rank Expert silently, estimating the opponent’s ability to be above the Eighth Rank.
Ninth Rank Expert?
Impossible.
"You..."
"Spare..."
The two hurriedly spoke, but before finishing, their bodies collapsed simultaneously.
The room returned to silence, leaving only Su Changfeng standing as though he was the only one present the entire time.
Silently killing three Seventh Rank Experts would undoubtedly shock everyone in Xingluo if it were known, yet tonight’s events were destined to remain a secret.
Su Changfeng tossed the bodies into the front courtyard, where his blooming flowers were; now with fertilizer, they were likely to be even more vibrant next year.
After dealing with them, Su Changfeng returned to his room, seemingly as if nothing had happened, lay down and fell asleep.
Under the cover of darkness, Tianshui City was silent, everyone deeply asleep, yet in a corner of the Shen Family, Shen Rushuang hadn’t slept in days.
Wang Junyi’s words lingered in her mind, unresolved, she pondered long, sinking deeper in thought.
Back during the Yuanqi Mountain Range inner circle incident, although she lost consciousness, unaware of what transpired, she remembered clearly that she was accompanied only by Su Changfeng and Wang Junyi.
Considering Wang Junyi’s ability, he couldn’t possibly tame the Seven-star Blood Lion, thus ruling out all impossible situations leaves only one possibility, a seemingly laughable one.
