Chapter 252: Did You Do This on Purpose?
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“So many of us haven’t obtained anything from the Scripture Pavilion. Are you going to end it just like this? Or did you do this on purpose?”
The young man from the Spirit Race stepped forward into the sky, glancing indifferently at Su Chen as he spoke.
He had thought that since he had no enmity with Su Chen, he should be able to get a jade slip. However, he didn’t expect that Su Chen hadn’t even looked him in the eye this whole time. If nothing unexpected happened, it seemed the Spirit Race wouldn’t get a share of those jade slips at all.
“So, you’re from the Spirit Race?” Su Chen glanced at the young man mockingly and said, “Then tell me, what do you want?”
“The Purple Qi Creation Scripture!” the young man from the Spirit Race spoke without any hesitation.
The Purple Qi Creation Scripture and the Elixir Dao True Explanation were two of the most precious cultivation methods in the Scripture Pavilion. Su Chen had given out the Elixir Dao True Explanation to six people, and the Purple Qi Creation Scripture to three. Adding him would make it just right!
“There’s still me!” At this moment, the Dashang Prince Shang Feng also stepped out from the Dashang crowd and rose into the sky. With a proud look on his face, he said, “I’m different from the others. I only want the two cultivation methods from our Dashang’s Little Thunderclap Temple!”
Hearing this, the people around frowned.
“Isn’t this going too far?”
“That’s right! Fellow Daoist Su Chen obtained the inheritance the God Demon Sect left behind. His willingness to share it with us was already a selfless act. But the things left behind by the Little Thunderclap Temple are different!” “Exactly! The things left by the Little Thunderclap Temple were obtained by Fellow Daoist Su Chen through his own abilities. Now Shang Feng is speaking this way. He’s truly shameless!”
“Humph! Your Dashang’s behavior is quite unsightly!”
A veteran expert spoke gloomily. Most of those present stood on Su Chen’s side. This was also why Su Chen hadn’t said anything himself. If he spoke up, the crowd would likely have already swarmed forward.
“Fellow Daoist Su Chen, do you need me to personally take care of them?” The elder from the Rosy Clouds Holy Land looked at Shang Feng and the others coldly as he spoke. He had a fiery temper. At this moment, with just a word from Su Chen, he would take action directly. After all, Su Chen had obtained the things in the Scripture Pavilion through his own abilities. He could give them to whoever he wanted. When did it become someone else’s turn to meddle and give their opinions? Shang Feng simply disregarded all of them!
In fact, there was another very important reason. Su Chen had just gifted him the Purple Qi Creation Scripture. A saint-level cultivation method that clearly pointed out the path to sainthood for him. As long as he steadily cultivated, he would definitely reach the peak stage of the Quasi-Saint Realm in less than a hundred years! Within 500 years, he could even enter the Saint Realm!
With such a great favor, he really did not know how to repay it. Now, an opportunity had presented itself on a silver platter.
“There’s no need for Fellow Daoist to make a move. Leave such a small matter for our Heavenly Heart Sacred Sect to handle!” The Heavenly Heart Holy Son led numerous Heavenly Heart Sacred Sect’s elders out from the crowd, their auras extremely astonishing. The elders all wore eager looks, ready to give it a try.
Most people present had received kindness from Su Chen. Each wanted to find an opportunity to repay the favor, unfortunately, such chances were too scarce. Right now, only two factions dared to speak rudely to Su Chen. If they had acted a bit slower, there might not have been any soup left.
“There’s no need to scramble, leave this matter to me.” At this moment, a middle-aged man wearing a purple-gold crown walked out from the crowd, it was none other than the Dasui Emperor. He was the only peak-stage Quasi-Saint Realm expert present, so his words carried substantial weight.
The Dasui Emperor’s face was filled with endless emotions. Over the past few days, he had received far too much kindness from Su Chen, who first gifted him an extremely precious spiritual herb, then a saint-level cultivation method. This left him at a loss for how to feel better. Although he had helped Su Chen once before, based on the current circumstances it was still inadequate. If he wanted to repay Su Chen’s kindness, he could only do so slowly over time.
For now, helping Su Chen solve some trivial problems was in his eyes just a convenient move. After all, in everyone’s eyes, the Dasui Emperor and Spirit Race’s people were no match for Su Chen. One had to know that previously Su Chen had slaughtered a full five Quasi-Saint Realm experts.
“Your Highness, there are some things you cannot touch! If you insist on going your own way, get past me first!” Yang Kai stood by Su Chen’s side as he spoke. Although born in Dashang, he and Shang Feng were not on the same boat. He had stood by Su Chen’s side long ago.
“Hm?” Hearing this, Shang Feng and the only Quasi-Saint Realm expert behind him reacted with ugly expressions. The various factions had groups behind them, only these two stood alone. It was nothing for the others to speak, but Yang Kai’s words completely broke Shang Feng’s composure. On his side, there were no usable people left, only a Quasi-Saint Realm expert and Yang Kai. But Yang Kai, instead of helping them, now he openly stood on Su Chen’s side!
Shang Feng stared at Yang Kai with deep hatred in his eyes, but upon sensing Su Chen’s gaze land behind him, he quickly hid it away. With so many people speaking up for Su Chen, he would have to be nervous.
“Yang Kai, I will truthfully report your actions today to my Father when I return! As for all of you… Do you really want to become enemies with our Dashang?”
Shang Feng stared at Yang Kai indignantly as he spoke. But when he looked around at the various factions, not a single person answered his question. All their gazes were focused on that purple robe, silently awaiting his response.
“Also, Su Chen, don’t think you can disregard my Dashang Empire just because you have people supporting you here! You should know that the Great Mystery Sacred Sect you rely on is just a measly ant with some strength in our Dashang’s eyes!”
“How foolish.” Hearing this, Cao Yun shook his head slightly, looking at Shang Feng with disdain as he muttered to himself.
Su Chen also shook his head slightly. He might not be aware of the internal affairs of the Dashang Empire, but he was well-informed.
Someone of Dashang Collaborating with dark creatures was a fool’s errand from the start.
Furthermore, now, the Dashang Prince Shang Feng was openly threatening him here.. Did he think his life was too long? Or perhaps Shang Feng simply didn’t regard the people present here with any importance?
