Section 650
Su Chen suddenly clenched his fists.
Veins bulged on his arms, and his eyes overflowed with Killing Intent.
He figured it out.
He recalled the details of Luo Yan stabbing him in the back that day.
His face wore an expression of pain, clearly acting against his own will.
Xu Hao had once used Luo Yan's aunt's daughter—meaning his younger sister—as a threat.
If Xu Hao used this to threaten him again,
Luo Yan would most likely submit.
"Xu Hao, it's Xu Hao again. I swear I won't be human if I don't kill you."
He made a grand vow.
Su Chen looked at Old Man.
"Old Man, you must help me find Luo Yan. I misunderstood him."
"His strength is not weak. Finding him can also become our helper in dealing with Xu Hao…"
Facing his expectant disciple,
Old Man really didn't want to crush him.
But he had no choice but to speak.
He spat out a sentence with difficulty.
"We most likely won't be able to find him anymore."
What does that mean?
Su Chen was puzzled.
"When we went to look for Xu Hao last time, didn't you hear what Xu Hao said? He said we temporarily couldn't find Luo Yan."
"After some time, he will send us to meet him."
Seeing that his disciple's eyes were still filled with blank confusion,
Old Man felt a pang of heartache.
This disciple was originally very smart.
Look at what kind of state Xu Hao's blows had reduced him to.
He couldn't even think of such a simple matter.
"Luo Yan has most likely already died at Xu Hao's hands…"
What?
Su Chen's whole body stiffened, his expression changing drastically in shock.
He couldn't help but recall Xu Hao's strange expression when speaking to him.
Su Chen shuddered violently and couldn't help trembling.
He knew Master was right.
"Most likely" was a conservative phrasing.
Thinking of the brother who once shared weal and woe together, now separated by the netherworld,
A sense of shared grief and sorrow welled up in Su Chen's heart.
Seeing his disciple's low morale and listless state,
Old Man gave him a fierce slap.
"Now is not the time for sorrow. Pull yourself together for me."
"If we don't find a way to improve ourselves, we will end up with the same fate as Luo Yan. Didn't you hear Xu Hao say he was going to send us to see him?"
Su Chen's Spirit jolted.
The sorrow in his eyes gradually dissipated,
Transforming into endless Killing Intent and hatred.
Whether to prevent the Junior Sisters and the Junior Sisters' Master from falling victim to Xu Hao's cruel hands,
Or to prevent himself and Master from meeting a violent death,
As well as to avenge his brother Luo Yan,
He should not indulge in the past.
He must work hard to improve and defeat Xu Hao.
Su Chen rallied his Spirit once more and looked at Old Man.
"Master, what should we do next? I swear to kill Xu Hao…"
Seeing that Su Chen could quickly shift his attitude,
Old Man nodded; his Heart-Nature was not bad.
Believing that after experiencing such a great disaster and tribulation,
It wouldn't take long for Su Chen to make a Breakthrough in Dan Strength.
The reason why he drove his disciple down the mountain was precisely to let him temper himself in the Mortal World and make a Breakthrough in Dan Strength.
Su Chen's talent was astonishing.
Ever since learning medicine and martial arts, he had never encountered any Bottlenecks.
He wanted to create some difficulties for his disciple,
Not expecting that right upon leaving the mountain, it would be a disastrous beginning,
Encountering such a powerful opponent like Xu Hao.
The opponent was very strong, but the effect was also good.
Isn't the disciple about to make a Breakthrough now?
Thinking about it this way, being enemies with Xu Hao could still be considered a good thing,
On the condition that they survived this tribulation.
If they couldn't survive it, both master and disciple would be reduced to ashes.
Old Man's eyes flickered as he spoke in a deep voice,
"Xu Hao's strength is very strong. Single-handedly we are not his opponents, so we will form alliances."
"In my early years when Master went down the mountain to temper himself, I made many connections, and quite a few people owe me favors."
"Now it is also time to collect some interest from them…"
After speaking, he turned his head and walked toward the police station.
Su Chen quickly followed and asked,
"Old man, what are you doing? We just came out and now we have to go back in? I wouldn't come to this ghost place again even if it killed me."
Old Man replied without looking back,
"Go find the bureau chief inside, the one who let us out. Back then, his father owed me a life…"
Originally, after arresting the master and disciple,
Liang Team received Xu Hao's instructions to keep a low profile and maintain confidentiality.
He had already acted very cautiously,
Yet because the Protagonist Halo activated, it still drew the bureau chief's attention.
Just as Liang Team had anticipated,
He was working for Xu Hao.
The bureau chief didn't do anything to him.
Out of past favors, the bureau chief interceded with Xu Hao.
Xu Hao figured he had already taken down Luo Qingxian,
And wasn't afraid of the master-disciple duo making trouble anymore.
Right on cue, keeping them locked in the police station meant Emotion Points could no longer be harvested.
It was about time to let them out for a stroll a few times,
So that after harvesting a few more waves, he could send Su Chen to see his good brother.
Even if the bureau chief hadn't spoken to him about it,
He was already prepared to release them after some time.
At this moment, since the bureau chief proposed it, he owed him a favor.
