This fatty was, of course, Old Ma.
Old Ma stood in the crowd, looking with worry at Lu Chen who had been captured by the Su family. He was originally a secret agent, so he was very well-informed. The time it took for the Su family to clash with Lu Chen on the street, and the time it took for him to be escorted to the gates of the Su residence was enough for him to know what had happened.
Old Ma rushed over and saw the scene of pushing and shoving in front of the gates of the Su residence. His face was as gloomy as water, his pupils slightly contracted. Someone pushed forward and bumped into him, but he did not even react, his gaze only fixed on Lu Chen.
Then, when Lu Chen was escorted to the gates of the Su residence by the crowd, the servants and guards in the gatehouse rushed out to speak with Su Qian, Su Wen and the others. He temporarily stopped and turned his head to look.
In the blink of an eye, they saw each other.
Their gazes met in the air.
Old Ma's lips moved slightly. After taking a deep breath, he took a step forward. But at this time, Lu Chen suddenly shook his head lightly.
Old Ma immediately stopped, standing stiffly in place like a pillar, even if his eyes flashed with a layer of indescribable pain and anger.
His hands were hidden in his wide sleeves, clenched into fists, his fingernails digging into his flesh, leaving deep white marks.
His gaze was silent, but it seemed to say something. Two silent men, standing in the crowd, seemed to be a lonely shadow outside of this world.
At this point in life, it was like a trace of mud flitting across the years, or like someone's meaningless and distant sigh.
So, there were actually so many, many, more important things …
Old Ma raised his head, looking at the sky. It was daytime, the sky bright and clear.
In this beautiful world, in this bright day, how could there be a shadow?
He gritted his teeth, but smiled, and then slowly, slowly, lowered his head.
… …
Lu Chen was escorted into the Su Residence.
Without a doubt, this was the first time Lu Chen had come to the Su family's mansion in Kunwu City. This was the place where the Su Clan resided in Kunwu City, and it was also their most fundamental foundation. Over the years, many extraordinary people had come out of this mansion, and they had allowed the Su family to prosper for many years. Even today, the Su family had not declined, and in the foreseeable future, it seemed that the Su family would continue to prosper.
This was because another talented genius had appeared here. She was like a perfect fairy who lived on the Flying Goose Terrace.
The Su Residence was, of course, very large, and at the same time very luxurious. Moreover, because it had flourished for many years, it had a deep heritage and accumulation, so there was also an extremely deep aura of nobility here. The paintings on the veranda, the exquisite carvings of birds and beasts on the eaves, the seemingly ordinary but actually incomparably precious flowers and trees … all of them showed that this place was different from the rest, showing that the Su family was a truly famous and influential clan.
However, compared to the heavy accumulation in the surroundings, Su Qian, Su Wen, and the others who were escorting Lu Chen seemed somewhat out of place.
Each and every one of them was in high spirits, arrogant and domineering. The servants and servants who passed by on the road retreated one after another, and those who didn't have time to greet them hurriedly.
Su Qian and Su Wen naturally didn't have the time to talk nonsense with these servants. At most, when they saw a few pretty young maidservants, they would laugh heartily and hug them to take advantage of them. They would touch here and there and pat their buttocks, causing those maidservants to turn pale and scatter in all directions like startled birds. Then, they would laugh at their backs and shout, "You, you, you, you, come to my room tonight, I, your young master, have taken a fancy to you …"
The attendants at the side all laughed heartily. Each and every one of them seemed to be very excited. The only person in the crowd who didn't laugh was probably Lu Chen.
None of the surrounding people of the Su residence stood out to speak. After all, Su Qian, Su Wen, and that young master Sumo who was still recuperating were known as the three heroes of the Su family. They were the most favored of the younger generation of the Su family. In particular, Sumo was the flesh and blood of the current madam of the household. She was normally the most spoiled, and she was also the younger brother of Su Qingjun, who was currently at the peak of her power. It could be said that no one dared to provoke her.
When Lord Su and Young Lady Su Qingjun were here, perhaps they could still manage these young masters. But now that Young Lady Qingjun was living on the Kunlun Mountains, no one dared to meddle in the matters that Lord Su could not manage. Otherwise, they would be punished.
Normally, there would have been people coming over to reprimand them, but today, it seemed that no one was willing to stand up for them.
Su Qian and Su Wen were also fearless. They walked all the way to a courtyard on the west side of the Su residence. Before they entered, Su Wen already shouted, "Brother Mo, brother Mo, are you there? Quickly come and see who I've caught for you. Today, I'll let you vent your anger, hahahaha … "
Everyone laughed heartily and walked in together.
… …
Lu Chen looked around the courtyard and saw that there was an extremely luxurious two-story building at the front. There was a pond of flowers and plants at the side. The flowers that bloomed were all magnificent and filled with a luxurious atmosphere. It was even more luxurious than the Su residence he saw from the outside. But that kind of dignified atmosphere was nowhere to be found here.
In front of the small building, there was a large reclining chair. A man was lying on it. His appearance was somewhat similar to Su Qian and Su Wen. It was Sumo.
At this moment, he sat up and looked over with a surprised expression. Then, Su Qian and Su Wen walked over and said a few words to him. Sumo immediately revealed a happy expression. Then, he looked in Lu Chen's direction with a somewhat disgusted and ruthless expression.
Lu Chen also looked at Sumo. As the most unlucky of the three brothers of the Su family that day on the Flying Goose Platform, Su Qingjun's attack on him … oh, actually, it was his foot that was the heaviest. It was said that this fellow broke several bones and couldn't get up for half a month. Looking at his current appearance, it seemed that he really hadn't fully recovered.
Once a woman flipped out, it was still very scary.
In Lu Chen's mind flashed the image of Su Qingjun's' valiant and heroic posture 'after flipping the table on the Flying Goose Platform. He couldn't help but laugh in his heart. But on the surface, he still quickly lowered his head and didn't look at the people around him, appearing somewhat timid.
Just now at the Su residence's front door, he saw Old Ma. With their many years of working together and friendship, even if it was just a silent glance, they were able to exchange a lot of information and thoughts.
He saw Old Ma's worry but in the end he still stopped him. The Evil Sect spy hiding in the Kunlun Mountains had still not been found. No matter what, it was not the time for him to expose his identity.
Since he had to compromise, since he was determined to endure it, then there was no point in continuing to resist.
"Bring him over!"
Sumo, who was sitting on the rattan chair, shouted loudly. The attendants beside her immediately surrounded Lu Chen and pushed him to the stone steps in front of the small building.
Su Qian and Su Wen stood beside Sumo. Sumo looked very excited. She stared at Lu Chen and said with a hideous smile, "Brat, do you still recognize me?"
"Yes, you are Master Su." Lu Chen replied honestly.
Sumo laughed and said, "You didn't expect this day would come, right?"
Lu Chen sighed and said, "Master Su, if I say that what happened that day was a misunderstanding and … it really has nothing to do with me, will you believe me?"
"Pei!" The three brothers of the Su family on the steps spat in unison, their faces showing disdain. Sumo said fiercely, "Do you think we are fools?"
Su Wen stood at the side and sneered, "In the past, Sister Jun was so good to us and would grant all our requests. But after you came to the Flying Goose Platform, so many things happened. What not seeing us, what scolding us for waiting, and finally even beating us? Who else can we blame but you? "
Sumo snorted and said, "Why are you talking so much nonsense with this guy? Damn it! I've been beaten up for no reason, and I've long been stifled in my heart. Today, I must vent my anger! "
After saying that, he suddenly raised his voice and roared, "Someone, bring my treasures here!"
Someone at the side had already answered. Then, two people went and walked into the small building, laughing and joking. After a while, they came out with a few big boxes and placed them in front of the three brothers of the Su family. Then, they opened them one by one.
Everyone present, including the Su family brothers and the servants, laughed coldly. Their laughter was bone-chilling, like wild beasts that were about to devour people.
"Kid, do you want to pick one for yourself?" Sumo clicked her tongue and narrowed her eyes. Like a cat, she looked at the mouse that she had caught with a tyrannical gaze. She grinned and said, "Don't worry, I won't let you die so easily."
Lu Chen looked down and saw that the boxes were neatly arranged, and they were all strangely shaped instruments of torture.
At this moment, those incomparably sharp blades, those hair-raising spikes, and all kinds of indescribable and terrifying torture tools were all emitting a cold radiance under the sunlight that fell from the sky.
For the first time, Lu Chen's face became gloomy.
Then, he raised his head and quietly glanced at the three arrogant and domineering Su family brothers standing on the steps. His eyes were cold.
…
Outside the Su family's gate, the crowd of onlookers had yet to disperse. There would never be a lack of busybodies. It was in many people's nature to watch the fun.
He Gang stood in the crowd. He was a little anxious, a little excited, and a little regretful that he couldn't go in and see Lu Chen being punished. However, the words that came from the crowd around him from time to time still made him obtain great satisfaction. The rumor that the three brothers of the Su family liked to use torture to punish their servants and make them beg for death, although there was no evidence, it was vividly described as if it was true.
In the crowd, He Gang was happy. On the other side, Old Ma's face was slightly trembling and twisted. He was forcibly suppressing the anger and anxiety in his heart.
It was at this time that they suddenly raised their heads at the same time and looked towards the sky.
A bright ray of light, like a shocking rainbow, flew over. The sharp whistling sound of breaking through the air was deafening. It could be seen how fast it was!
In just a moment, this rainbow light directly landed in front of the Su family's gate.
Some cultivators in the crowd with better eyesight had already cried out in surprise, "This is … a Golden Core cultivator!"
