“Fine, fine, fine. Since Elder Zixuan is determined to protect Su Chen, we'll see about that!”

The young man coldly snorted.

Seeing Zixuan's anger, they didn't argue further, but quickly fled with Tang Chuan.

After all, with Zixuan present, they couldn't possibly do anything to Su Chen. They could only return and reconsider their plans.

“These people are too much!”

“It's clear that Tang Chuan couldn't withstand Junior Brother Su's attack, yet they insist that Junior Brother Su ambushed him!”

“Shameless!”

Luo Qianqian said indignantly.

“That's right, this Tang Chuan is malicious and hateful!”

Qing Ling also clenched her small fist, very angry.

“Although Tang Chuan is a Holy Son, he appears humble and gentle to everyone, but his actions are ruthless and overbearing.”

“In recent years, anyone who has opposed him has either been subdued by him or quietly disappeared from the world, never to be seen again.”

“Tang Chuan has most likely set his sights on you.”

Zixuan also frowned slightly and said, “Junior Brother Su, you must be careful in the future. The Tang family behind Tang Chuan is one of the strongest factions in the Cangxuan Holy Land. At least two of the seven Elders support the Tang family.”

“The Tang family's ancestor is even a Saint Realm cultivator, and one of the Saint Realm ancestors of the Cangxuan Holy Land!”

“Master has been in seclusion for decades and has not yet emerged…”

Zixuan sighed softly and said, “Why don't you become a disciple of the Holy Lord, Junior Brother Su? At least you won't have to worry about Tang Chuan's targeting.”

“I could, but there's no need.”

Su Chen shook his head and said casually, “Tang Chuan is not worth fearing.”

“This…”

Zixuan and Luo Qianqian exchanged glances, both somewhat surprised.

Su Chen doesn't even take Tang Chuan seriously?

Could it be that he also comes from an ancient and powerful family?

“That's it.”

“Su Chen was able to break the record for the shortest time to reach the top of the Hundred Refinements Tower. Such a monstrous genius certainly wouldn't have an ordinary background.”

A hint of understanding flashed in Zixuan and Luo Qianqian's eyes.

Only Qing Ling pursed her lips, revealing a worried look.

This Tang Chuan actually has a Saint Realm ancestor backing him!?

The Su family's ancestor is only at the seventh level of the Monarch Realm…

Can Young Master really handle this?

“This is my communication treasure. If you need help, feel free to contact me.”

Zixuan handed two treasures resembling jade slips to Su Chen and Qing Ling.

After that, everyone chatted for a while, and Zixuan and Luo Qianqian left.

“Young Master, could there be a problem with this gift from the Sword Peak Master?”

“I always feel like those guys aren't that kind.”

Qing Ling took out the storage ring given by Tang Chuan, somewhat worried.

“You guessed right.”

Su Chen said casually, “These two gifts weren't from the Sword Peak Master, but prepared by Tang Chuan himself.”

“The storage ring contains a curse and a potent poison, colorless and odorless. Anyone who opens it will be affected.”

“This curse and poison are slow-acting, and there won't be any abnormalities in the short term.”

“But as long as the person affected by the curse and poison gets close to Tang Chuan, he can use forbidden techniques to subtly influence their consciousness, eventually turning them into a puppet controlled by him.”

Su Chen's words startled Qing Ling, and her expression instantly changed.

“This Tang Chuan is so vicious!”

“This is simply a demonic method!”

“Wait a moment…”

Qing Ling suddenly reacted and said, “Young Master, how do you know there's a curse and poison in the storage ring?”

“There are many things that Young Master knows.”

Su Chen didn't explain, but casually took the storage ring from Qing Ling's hand, planning to take it back to the Tianling Dynasty and find an opportunity to throw it into Zhao Xianglu's cave.

As long as someone is affected by the curse and poison, Tang Chuan will be able to sense their location.

If Tang Chuan turns Zhao Xianglu into a puppet…

Su Chen stroked his chin, a meaningful smile appearing on his face.

Of course, Su Chen couldn't guarantee that this plan would succeed.

In the original plot, Chu Fan was also affected, but his master noticed the abnormality and took action to resolve it.

Zhao Xianglu and Chu Fan are from the same sect, so perhaps his master can also sense the abnormality.

But there's no loss in trying. If it succeeds, then there will be fun to watch.

Qing Ling saw the smile on Su Chen's face and immediately shrank her neck.

Her intuition told her that Young Master was definitely plotting against someone again.

“Is Little Friend Su Chen here?”

“This old man is Luo Ming, the Great Elder of Martial Peak. Please, Little Friend, show yourself.”

Not long after, a kind and gentle voice came from outside Su Chen's cave.

“So it's Elder Luo, please come in.”

Su Chen opened the door and welcomed Luo Ming into the cave.

Luo Ming had a peaceful face and directly got straight to the point, presenting a gift and then warmly inviting Su Chen and Qing Ling to visit Martial Peak in the future, subtly extending an olive branch to them.

“Definitely next time!”

Su Chen accepted the gift and then said with a smile.

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Luo Ming left with a smile, not lingering for long.

In the following time, seven more elders from the main peaks came to visit one after another.

Their intentions were the same as Luo Ming's. First, they presented generous gifts, and then warmly invited Su Chen and Qing Ling to visit their main peaks, trying to win over Su Chen and Qing Ling.

To this, Su Chen simply accepted all the gifts and then uniformly replied with a smile, “Definitely next time.”

As for when next time would be, Su Chen didn't know.

“As expected of the Holy Land's main peak elders, they're really rich…”

After the elders left, Qing Ling opened the storage ring and glanced at it, immediately exclaiming in admiration.

Each elder had given one or two seventh-order magical treasures, and there were more than a dozen or twenty portions of sixth-order heavenly materials and earthly treasures. This was a considerable fortune!

Moreover, Su Chen and Qing Ling each received a share!

In the following time, Su Chen didn't go to the Scripture Pavilion or the Treasure Pavilion, but tidied up the cave and prepared to return to the Tianling Dynasty.

Su Chen didn't lack saint-level cultivation techniques or cultivation resources, so he didn't need to go to the Scripture Pavilion or the Treasure Pavilion for the time being.

After briefly explaining the itinerary to Zixuan, Su Chen put on an invisibility cloak and quietly left the Cangxuan Holy Land with Qing Ling.
