Chapter 609: Meeting with the Monarch Again_1
Shen Yongji escaped quickly, racing away from the Shen family at the fastest speed. However, no matter how fast he ran, he was far from matching the speed of Su Chengyu and Shen Junrou in their sword flight.
As soon as Shen Yongji left the main gate of the Shen family mansion, a sword Qi fell, blocking his path of escape.
Su Chengyu landed with Shen Junrou on his flying sword. Shen Yongji’s face turned pale with fear. He said in terror, "Su Cheng! I did not wrong you in any way. Why must you be against me? What will it take for you to let me go?"
Shen Yongji was afraid of death, but he was very clear that against Su Chengyu, he did not stand a chance.
Su Chengyu scoffed, "Have you not coveted my secret techniques? Dare you say that if given the opportunity, you wouldn’t strike me down?"
Shen Yongji, of course, was unwilling to admit it. Su Chengyu didn’t feel like wasting more words with him either. He swung the Dragon Slayer Sword and a wave of sword Qi sliced through the air. It was fierce and unstoppable.
Shen Yongji was also unwilling to die without a fight. He exerted all his martial arts to resist. After exchanging over a dozen blows, Shen Yongji was unable to withstand Su Chengyu’s onslaught. He was struck by a sword Qi, which left a wound deep enough to see bone on his chest, and blood gushed out.
Shen Junrou stood at a distance, watching Shen Yongji get injured and lose. Unable to bear the sight of Shen Yongji being killed, she shut her eyes and turned her head away.
Shen Yongji looked at the wound on his chest, he knew his death was certain. Holding his chest, blood seeping through his fingers, he let out an angered roar, lifted a huge stone lion at the entrance of the Shen family mansion, and hurled it towards Su Chengyu. In the next move, he kicked another stone lion, sending it flying as well.
Immediately afterwards, Shen Yongji looked at Shen Junrou with a grim face, who was seething with murderous intent, and said, "You little wretch! It’s all because of you! You led to the ruin of my family. If I’m going to die today, I won’t let you live either."
Knowing that he was sure to die, Shen Yongji, in his dying breath, wanted to kill Shen Junrou to vent his hatred. He exerted all his energy, and threw a punch towards Shen Junrou.
