Chapter 21: Reborn as the Enemy's Heir, a Marquis (9)
Inside the tent, Su Chen sat with his hands folded calmly. He showed no trace of surprise at the arrival of a Spirit Soul realm powerhouse.
The gray-robed elder behind him recognized the white-haired man at once and spoke his title aloud. That single sentence sent a violent tremor through Marquis Purple Lightning's heart.
"Not good—I've walked straight into a trap!"
Realizing the danger, the marquis turned to flee on the spot. But the elder's withered hand had already gripped a long spear. A surge of divine soul power erupted.
The midnight darkness was suddenly lit as bright as day. Commanders on the ground below saw the flash and immediately understood something was wrong. They shouted in alarm.
"Protect the young marquis!"
If the young marquis died here, none of them stationed nearby would escape punishment.
"It's you—the Master of the Startling Swan Spear! You're still alive!"
One spear, one startling swan. That technique had once dazzled entire eras. It had swept across the surrounding kingdoms unchallenged.
