Chapter 771 Visitors from Hidden Dragon Hall
The night was cool as water, and the bright moonlight spread across the land.
It was after ten o'clock at night, and Su Chen was quietly lying on his bedroom bed, casually flipping through a fashion magazine, while Lin Ruoxue was still working in the study next door.
Su Chen had long grown accustomed to this situation, who else but himself had landed such a workaholic wife?
Probably not letting her work would be more painful for her than killing her.
Therefore, Su Chen had never thought of making her a housewife, at most he just often reminded her to take care of her health and not to overwork herself.
Just then, Su Chen suddenly sensed an unusual presence. He immediately narrowed his eyes, then opened the window and leaped out in a flash.
As soon as he landed, he began to search for the unusual presence he had detected just moments before.
Soon, his gaze fixed on a tree not far away.
"Clap, clap, clap!"
At that moment, a figure jumped down from the tree, clapping and laughing:
"I didn't expect you to be so sharp; I had just arrived and you noticed me!"
"Who are you?"
Su Chen looked at the man walking towards him and asked coldly.
At the same time, his muscles tensed, and the True Yuan in his body gathered in an instant!
Because although this middle-aged man looked ordinary, Su Chen sensed an incredibly powerful aura from him!
Although his cultivation had improved beyond recognition and had reached a level he had never imagined before,
he still felt weak in front of this middle-aged man!
"Hidden Dragon Hall!"
The man said indifferently.
As the words fell, Su Chen suddenly felt his heart contract!
They had indeed come after all!
And they had sent such a powerful figure!
Compared to him, the last one who came, Han Cheng, was utterly insignificant!
Su Chen's heart immediately felt heavy—the strength of Hidden Dragon Hall was truly extraordinary!
Just then, the man suddenly moved, disappearing from his spot in an instant and appeared right in front of Su Chen, launching a palm strike at him!
The air around his palm moved without wind, and a massive wave of True Essence Energy surged toward him, like a wild beast opening its mouth to devour everything!
"Too fast!"
Su Chen's pupils constricted, and not daring to be careless, he too moved swiftly, dodging to the side!
"Eh!"
The man, seeing Su Chen had actually dodged his palm strike, couldn't help but let out a light sound of surprise, his interest in the young man increasing!
Immediately, he swung a side kick towards the side, the speed like an arrow leaving the bow, and the power akin to a cannonball!
Su Chen had just steadied himself when he saw a leg sweeping toward him with terrifying force; unable to think, he instinctively twisted his waist and barely dodged the ferocious attack!
But before he could catch his breath, the leg that had just swept past swung back towards him, aiming straight for his abdomen!
"Damn, will this ever end!"
Su Chen couldn't help but curse to himself, while simultaneously moving swiftly, retreating back like a gust of wind!
"Indeed, quite interesting!"
The man, seeing Su Chen repeatedly evade his attacks, became even more astonished and his interest in Su Chen deepened!
Suddenly, the man attacked Su Chen again, with increased speed and vigor from before!
Under the opponent's fierce offensive, Su Chen could only continuously dodge!
But the opponent was too fast, no sooner had he dodged one attack than the next was already upon him, and each was faster than the last!
Though Su Chen barely managed to dodge each wave of attacks, he ended up utterly disheveled!
Sometimes, driven to desperation, he had to roll on the ground to evade the opponent's strikes!
Before long, his face and body were smeared with mud and the grass and leaves from the nearby flower beds, and he felt extremely frustrated!
You should know, besides being betrayed by Tang Gang over a year ago and cornered by the masters of the Judgment Department, he had never been in such a disarray!
Back then, at least it was many people attacking him, but this time it was just one person!
What he didn't realize was that the middle-aged man's heart was growing more and more shocked!
Although this young boy was pressed into a disarray by him, he could dodge appropriately every time no matter what method was used!
The opponent's combat experience was too rich, and his reaction speed was absolutely rare!
More importantly, he vaguely felt that the true strength of his opponent was not as simple as he thought!
He had initially just wanted to test the depth of this young boy, but this test had greatly exceeded his expectations!
Well, let me see just how far you can hold up!
The man then threw a punch at Su Chen, his fist tearing through the void; on the edge of his fist shimmered a powerful energy of True Essence, heading straight for Su Chen!
"Damn, here it comes again!"
Su Chen felt that continuing to dodge was not a solution, and he immediately decided to go on the offensive instead!
Of course, he wouldn't confront the man directly since he felt his strength was definitely not on par with his opponent's!
Watching the imposing punch barreling towards him, he suddenly flicked his wrist and five Silver Needles shot out!
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh~~"
A series of sounds cutting through the air suddenly rang out, with a flash of silver light!
The man, seeing the silver light shooting towards his face at the speed of lightning, was startled. He hadn't expected the young man to suddenly counterattack!
When the Silver Needles were about twenty centimeters from his face, he hurriedly tilted his head slightly, and the five Silver Needles flew past his eyes!
Though he was confident in his superiority in strength over the young man, he didn't retract the punch he had thrown!
So, after dodging the Silver Needles, he immediately turned his head back, his fist continuing its relentless advance!
But just as he turned his head back, suddenly several cold lights flashed in the void — this time, seven Silver Needles were speeding towards him!
"Is this fun?"
The man, rather speechlessly, twisted his mouth and again dodged to the side, his punch still relentlessly pushing forward, now reaching the young man!
But just as he dodged past the seven Silver Needles with his face still tilted, he suddenly felt a chilling surge over his body, and he without hesitation pulled back the punch he had thrown!
A flash of cold light occurred, and a mist of blood sprayed out!
The man was a bit too slow, and a deep gash was sliced across his arm!
The man felt a wave of relief. If he hadn't felt the fluctuation of Yuan Qi around his arm and immediately pulled back, he might have had his hand cut off by the opponent's dagger!
Seeing this, Su Chen internally remarked it a pity; though the opponent didn't see it due to his tilted face, he had felt the danger and timely withdrew his hand!
Su Chen also knew that the opponent had likely sensed it through the fluctuation of Yuan Qi. It just proved that the middle-aged man had an incredibly sharp sense of Yuan Qi!
