760 Paying respect to the Clan Head! (2/2)
”En.” Chen Yiran supported Su Hao while going down from the bamboo house.
The surrounding air was fresh and clean. Su Hao had long forgotten when was the last time he enjoyed such fascinating scenery. On the contrary, the currently powerless him felt at peace. One man and one woman, holding hands together in this beautiful bamboo forest. Even if time is to stop, this would always be a beautiful scene.
Su Hao was extremely calm.
However, what caught his interest more was what the gift from that old senior is? He still remembered that before he went to Tian City, that old man said to him that if he succeeds, the old man will give him a big chance! While conversing with Chen Yiran, out of nowhere, there were some noises from the surrounding.
Trickle, trickle~
”Someone is here.” Chen Yiran suddenly turned alert.
”Really?” Su Hao's eyes squinted. Even when his origin ability is gone, it doesn't mean that his sense of crisis would vanish too. Shifting his gaze back to Chen Yiran immediately, ”Could there be any berserk beast in this wilderness?”
”Nope!” Chen Yiran firmly shook her head, ”I have inspected before. Within a radius of one hundred miles, not a single berserk beast is found. Plus, these auras, they seemed to be coming from human beings.”
Swish!
Human figures flashed.
Dozens of people walked out from the thick bamboo forest. Su Hao had a quick look and instantly felt shocked.
It's him?
Su Minghui?
Previously during his time in Zhanzheng College's Junior Class 8, Su Minghui had attempted to provoke him quite a number of times. Their relation is none other than mortal enemies. So, why would Su Minghui appear at this moment?
”Killing intent!” Su Hao's eyes turned cold.
He saw Su Minghui holding a knife in the hand which was dyed in blood while emitting murderous intent. Behind Su Minghui, dozens of people wearing similar uniforms walked out, following behind Su Minghui as they approached Su Hao's side at a quick pace.
Why would he be here?
Su Hao's thoughts were moving like electricity.
What's the saddest thing for a man? Being a tiger and yet being bullied by a dog. If it's during regular times, forget about a single Su Minghui, even a hundred Su Minghui wouldn't make Su Hao give a damn.
But now?
He had to pay close attention!
That old man left him here, so this place should be safe. But how did Su Minghui know about his presence here? Because this would indicate something worse, since Su Minghui could even find out about his location, what about other people? Other enemies? How was he found?
Something isn't right.
Su Hao thought so in his heart.
Without the aid of a smart computer, he could only think up till here. It's not because his IQ is not high enough, but the time left for him to think was too little!
Now, his biggest problem would be how to deal with Su Minghui!
”Damn.” Chen Yiran's face turned cold.
”How's their strength?” Su Hao asked in a low voice.
Chen Yiran had a closer look, and her face instantly changed, ”The one in the front is a peak professional esper. As for the rest, they're all domain espers! Among them, there are ten absolute domain espers and three life domain espers.”
Even she would have never thought that the enemies would be this powerful!
If Su Hao was at his original strength, even if they're not able to fight toe to toe, at least they could still quickly retreat; but now they had no option to withdraw, only death awaits them if they are to clash!
”Let me stop them.” Chen Yiran's face was as cold as ever.
”No need.” Su Hao shook his head, ”You can't fight them.”
”Then, let us die together!” Chen Yiran calmly said and suddenly made a move, blocking in front of Su Hao. A blue ice barrier formed, preventing everyone from the Su family from reaching them. When Su Minghui and the others arrived at the front of the barrier, they stopped abruptly. They didn't take any initiative to attack, they just raised their heads to look at Su Hao.
”If you want to touch him, you'll have to step over my dead body first.” Chen Yiran looked calm and cold. It had always been Su Hao protecting her. Now she finally had the chance to protect Su Hao! Even if that would result in her death, she didn't have the slightest bit of resentment.
A blue ice barrier divided the bamboo forest.
Su Hao and Chen Yiran stood on one side while Su Minghui and the others occupied the other side, forming a strange confrontation. Behind them, one could hear the sound of water flowing in the streamlet.
The atmosphere was so quiet that it could terrify people.
”Yiran, step back.” Su Hao suddenly said.
”En.” Chen Yiran looked back before retreating behind Su Hao. Guarding near him, if she notices something amiss, she could take action at any moment.
Crack!
The blue ice shattered.
Su Minghui and the others instantly rushed over.
”Halt.” Su Hao once again spoke.
This was an absurd scene. If his word was directed at Chen Yiran, that's fine; but to say so at Su Minghui and the others, if others witness this, they would probably laugh at Su Hao for being crazy. However, with such command from Su Hao, Su Minghui and the others halted their movement.
Even Chen Yiran herself couldn't help but reveal a hint of surprise in her eyes.
This is...
Su Minghui raised his head. His eyes showed a very complex look. Looking at the indifferent Su Hao in front of him, he could only sigh and eventually closed his eyes. He went and knelt in front of Su Hao, ”Su Minghui, as a disciple of the Su family, I pay respect to the Clan Head!”
Swish!
Everyone knelt on one knee in uniform and then shouted out loudly, ”As disciples of Su family, we pay respect to the Clan Head!”
In the bamboo forest, no sounds could be heard except their voices paying respect to their clan head continually echoing.
