Chapter 537: Su family (1/2)

Zou Qiang and the remaining 13 guards stared at the headless corpse next to them with eyes filled with shock and disbelief, while a look of extreme fear had appeared on Ying Gui's face at the same time.

If even Zou Qiang himself could barely resist the attack of a single arrow, and if his own guard who was at the peak of rank 2 in the Nascent Soul couldn't even guard against it before dying in one shot, what kind of terrifying enemy were they facing?

Shun Long's gaze was also focused at the origin of the arrow while a serious look had also appeared on his face.

'Luckily', Ying Gui didn't have to wait for a long time to get an answer for the question in his mind, as 2 middle-aged men dressed in long black robes slowly appeared as they stood next to each other.

One of the men held a long black bow in his hands while a quiver filled with metal arrows was strapped on his back, while the other man was holding a crimson sword.

However, what made both Zou Qiang and his remaining 13 guards despair, was that the middle-aged man who was holding the crimson sword was a middle rank 6 Nascent Soul stage expert, while the man with the arrow was actually at the peak of rank 6 in the Nascent Soul!

Ying Gui's body trembled when his eyes fell on the small emblems on the 2 men's chest, as he suddenly asked in a high-pitched voice

''You... you are from the Su family??''

The 2 men inspected Zou Qiang and Shun Long for a few moments, while an amused expression had appeared on both of their faces barely a moment later as they turned their attention towards Ying Gui.

The middle-aged man with the black bow smiled warmly and nodded his head as he looked at Ying Gui before he asked in return

''Since you already know why bother asking? Tell me, do you want to take your own lives or should I do it for you?''

Although the man in front of him seemed to be smiling, the warm smile on his face looked no different than the cold smile of a demon in Ying Gui's eyes.

Even Zou Qiang started to fall into despair as he stealthily took a few steps backwards, opening up the distance between himself and the 2 monsters that had appeared in front of them.

There was no way that he could fight against even a middle rank 6 Nascent Soul stage cultivator, let alone one who had already reached the peak of rank 6.

Seeing the despair on Ying Gui's face after he revealed his identity made the middle-aged man with the black bow to smile even wider, as he took another step forward towards Ying Gui and asked mockingly

''Hehe, who gave you, a small rank 1 Spirit realm trash, the guts to meddle between the fight of our family and the Yao family? Did you really think that you could purchase 4 peak rank 5 magic beasts from the Holy city for the Yaos and avoid being discovered by us? Hehehe, idiot. How could we not notice it when the Yaos used more than 1 million middle-grade spirit stones from their treasury for this?''

Ying Gui's face that had already started to turn pale in front of the middle-aged man's imposing presence, ended up turning even paler as the blood was all drained from his face.

He had originally thought that even if this mission was leaked, the Su family wouldn't know the exact details of it.
