Chapter 614: Cave Sky Artifact_1
With her hair disheveled, Shen Junrou opened her eyes to see the unfamiliar and indifferent faces. She never thought that after escaping from the tumultuous Suifeng, striving to live peacefully and doing what she desired, she would still be unable to escape her destiny, being captured by the Zhuo Family and brought back to Suifeng.
Shen Junrou made no attempt to resist, she faced the so-called trial of the crowd with equanimity, indifferent to joy or sorrow.
"Gentlemen, this woman harbors a venomous heart, guilty of murdering her father and kin, her crime must be punished! I am a dear friend of Shen Yongji, so today, I will deliver justice, avenge the Shen’s, and purge the family disgrace. We should behead her publically to appease the spirit of Shen!"
Once Zhuo Kun finished speaking, a clansman handed him a long knife. Holding the knife, Zhuo Kun addressed Shen Junrou, "I am quick with the blade, as is my knife. The moment I move my wrist, you will die without feeling any pain. If you don’t wish to die, tell us where Su Cheng is, or call him, ask him to save you."
Shen Junrou remained silent and closed her eyes.
From within the crowd, Su Chengyu also understood that the Zhuo’s captured Shen Junrou to bait him into revealing himself. He couldn’t bear to stand by and watch her die before his eyes.
This was the bottom line and true heart of Su Chengyu.
Just as Zhuo Kun raised his blade, Su Chengyu couldn’t hold back and attacked. The force of his thumb flew out, but Zhuo Kun quickly responded, cutting down with his blade, his sword energy dissolving Su Chengyu’s thumb force.
Zhuo Kun’s face brightened. When someone attacked, he knew it was Su Chengyu hiding in the crowd. Zhuo Kun loudly called out, "Su Cheng! I know you’re here, why don’t you show yourself, stop hiding? You had the guts to annihilate the Jin family, the courage to kill Shen Yongji, but now you’re a coward?"
As the saying goes, a man’s reputation is like a tree’s shadow. Su Cheng’s name was presently the crowning glory of Suifeng, highly intimidating. When Zhuo Kun called out Su Cheng’s name, it immediately caused an uproar.
Su Chengyu stopped hiding as well, removed his Disguise Talisman, and walked out of the crowd.
