Chapter 1222: The Pact of the Earth Immortal
"Dead, one of them?"
In the Long family’s grand estate, Longzhan looked at the person who had returned, barely alive, and was very surprised. Then, after thinking for a moment, he spoke, "How much effort did that Zhuang family kid put forth?"
"Zhuang Yihan hardly took any action, it was that Su Chengyu who stopped us by himself."
"Hmm? Did this guy really enter the Nascent Soul Realm?" Longzhan frowned and asked.
The severely injured Nascent Soul Cultivator pondered for a moment before speaking, "My lord, wasn’t there a rumor that this guy took care of the Ping Shan Demon Monarch?"
"I know! If it weren’t for the strangeness of this matter, would I need you to test his strength?" Longzhan said fiercely.
The Nascent Soul Cultivator blinked and didn’t dare to speak, knowing that sending them again was like sending them to their deaths.
"A guy who was still in the Golden Core Realm one or two months ago, in two months’ time, at most he would have just entered the Nascent Soul. Even if he really took part in the killing of the Ping Shan Demon Monarch, he couldn’t possibly have contributed the most. I sent you just to probe how capable he truly is."
Longzhan had tried to take down Su Chengyu more than once. The death of Longhe in a foreign land hadn’t sent any news back, and those from the Demon Clan who were in contact with the Long family had lost complete contact with Xia Country after their failure, and even now Longzhan didn’t understand how Su Chengyu had survived those two crises.
With the spread of the story of Su Chengyu’s killing of the Ping Shan Demon Monarch, Longzhan decided to take a risky move before coming to the Capital City.
Acting on his own without the emperor’s consent, Longzhan was well aware of the severity of the matter. To prepare for the worst-case scenario, he only allowed the two individuals who took action to probe primarily and not harbor any intent to kill.
