Chapter 115: Witness of the Era (12)
"Chen'er… did you truly kill Ji Xuanxiao?"
Wang Yaochen stared at his youngest son, who sat calmly, stroking the cat in his lap. Even now, he found it hard to believe. He could sense that his child had changed profoundly after ten years away from the Central Continent.
Su Chen nodded.
"I killed Ji Xuanxiao. I gave him a chance. He still chose death. So I sent him on his way."
Wang Yaochen opened his mouth, then let out a helpless sigh.
"Ji Xuanxiao was the successor of the Nether God Hall. I never imagined he would die at your hands. The Nether God Hall will not let this go quietly. For the time being, stay within the clan. We don't want any desperate dogs from the Nether God Hall jumping the wall in desperation."
Su Chen nodded.
The Nether God Hall had long declined. With Ji Xuanxiao—their last divine physique—dead at Su Chen's hand, they would certainly refuse to accept it. The Wang Clan did not fear the Nether God Hall itself, but Wang Yaochen worried about some ancient relic of that sect acting recklessly.
Su Chen's current talent had clearly earned the full attention of the Wang Clan. Killing Ji Xuanxiao was not a major issue. Once Su Chen's cultivation advanced further, the Nether God Hall would quietly choose to forget the matter.
