"Ambush! Enemy attack!"
Su Lie reacted imdiately, shouting loudly.
But by the ti he turned back to yell to the Su family mbers, it was too late. Many Su Family Disciples had already been hit by a barrage of arrows, falling to the ground dead one after another.
Seeing this, Su Lie’s eyes turned blood red in an instant.
He had not expected that just as they were about to complete the competition and leave, they would encounter an ambush.
An even greater question was, who would dare to attack the Su family mbers?
At this mont, a dense shower of arrows rained down from the sky, instantly claiming the lives of half of the Su Family Disciples.
Lin Chen, however, did not take any defensive asures; he simply blocked the rain of arrows with his bare hands and swept them away with a single palm strike.
Now, with his sturdy physique, these arrows could no longer harm him in the slightest.
Su Xiao, upon seeing Lin Chen deflect arrows with his bare hands, realized that him pulling her into his arms was to save her, not what she had thought, and she suddenly felt guilty, her cheeks flushing with sha.
"Protect her well, there might be a fierce battle ahead. Don’t let her interfere with us."
Lin Chen set Su Xiao down, leaving her in the care of Su Yun before he himself rushed out to et the enemy.
This action of Lin Chen made Su Xiao feel insulted.
Confident in her own beauty and figure, many within the Su Family had fallen for her.
Yet, after embracing her, Lin Chen pushed her away without hesitation, as if he wouldn’t have held her in his arms if not for the purpose of saving her.
Facing Lin Chen’s actions, Su Xiao felt her cheeks burning, seemingly both from sha and indignation.
She even suspected that Lin Chen was doing this deliberately to provoke her.
She was right; Lin Chen was indeed doing it on purpose.
There were already several won at ho fighting over him because of jealousy; Lin Chen didn’t dare to cause more trouble outside.
The strife among the won in his ho was more than enough for him; naturally, he would not provoke Su Xiao.
Lin Chen wasn’t worried that he would fall for Su Xiao but that Su Xiao might fall for him.
He was still quite confident in his own charm.
At this ti, Su Lie was also struggling to shoot down the arrows to prevent them from attacking his clan mbers.
But when his gaze landed on Lin Chen, he was astonished to find that Lin Chen was handling the arrows with ease, appearing extrely relaxed and not at all flustered by the attack.
However, Su Lie did not know that the power Lin Chen was displaying was only one-tenth of his true strength.
If Lin Chen were to exert his full power, he could instantly block all the arrows and even utilize the Gold Mystique to make the arrows rebound and eliminate the assailants.
But Lin Chen was not the type to show off. Revealing his strength too soon would not benefit his journey to Central State.
The lives and deaths of these Su family mbers had nothing to do with him; he had no obligation to protect them.
Lin Chen hoped to find out who the attackers were without excessively revealing his strength.
Thus, he could not display too much power, lest the attackers beco too fearful to show themselves.
At this mont, as the arrows claid most of the Su Family Disciples, the assassins—who seed to have exhausted their arrows—suddenly burst out from the mountain forests.
These assassins, all dressed in black, with robes covering their faces, were difficult to distinguish.
But Lin Chen could feel that these people emitted no ordinary aura; they all had Cultivation beyond the Eighth Layer of the Nirvana Realm.
To be aware, there were more than twenty n in black; their strength was already comparable to the Super Powers of the Eastern Domain.
Lin Chen inwardly sighed, acknowledging that Central State was indeed a place full of extraordinary talent.
Just then, he saw that the twenty-plus assassins were targeting the location where Su Yun was.
Lin Chen’s eyebrows raised slightly, his expression changing.
"You, you’re quite the character, having so many people wanting to kill you," Lin Chen said to Su Yun, nonchalantly.
After hearing this, Su Yun was startled, showing a helpless expression.
"Boss, what can I do? Who made sit in the Young Master’s seat of the Su Family? It’s not an easy seat to occupy," Su Yun said with resignation.
However, for the sake of his father, he could not give up the Young Master’s position.
It wasn’t him who was wrong, and he was not willing to give up either.
He had sat in this position for many years and would not lose his pride over these five years.
At that mont, Su Yun’s gaze fell upon those black-clothed people, his eyebrows tightly knitted.
He had already discerned that these black-clothed people were not ordinary attackers but hired assassins from the underground black market of Tian Que City.
The price tags on these hired assassins were not cheap; it seed to be another big move by his so-called good elder brother.
After so thought, Su Yun understood the rationale.
If he died, his father would surely be grieved and incapacitated in handling family affairs. By then, those in the clan would have an excuse to ask his father to give up the position of family head.
Therefore, while it seed that these assassins ca to kill him, their real target was his father, Su Liuyun.
Not only did the adversary covet the position of Young Master of the Su Family, but they also aid for the position of Family Head.
The thods of this person were truly devious.
Having understood this, Su Yun felt an imnse anger in his heart. If such a person were to control the Su Family, there would likely be no future for the family, only a path to destruction.
Facing the black-clothed assassins, Lin Chen no longer hid his strength, releasing Spiritual Power and infusing Thunderfire True aning into his Fist Technique, as he struck fiercely towards the oncoming assassins with a powerful punch.
Boom—
A massive fist of Spiritual Power condensed and rocketed toward the black-clothed people.
Faced with the enormous True Intent Fist Force, all the black-clothed people’s expressions changed dramatically, having initially dismissed Lin Chen when they saw he was only at the Nirvana Realm Second Layer.
However, at this mont, all the black-clothed individuals began to doubt whether Lin Chen was a disguised Creation Realm Expert.
