Ultimate Supreme Soldier King

A 20 percent mortality rate, reducing life-span by twenty years.

For the average person, the cost is much too steep.

Even if one could live to be a hundred years old.

That would still be one-fifth of their life-span.

What's more, many people only live to be seventy or eighty.

The key issue is, the Shura Potion cannot be used out of sequence; to take Shura Potion No. 2, one must first take Shura Potion No. 1.

That is to say.

Once Shura Potion No. 2 has been taken, even if one luckily survives both times, it will reduce life-span by thirty years.

Thirty years, almost half of one's lifetime.

And now Su Chen is already in his twenties, if he reduces thirty years, doesn't that mean he is practically fifty years old now.

Basically, it would be good if he could live another twenty or thirty years.

Even Catherine only took the No. 1 Shura Potion.

After reaching the Mortal Realm, Catherine demonstrated her talent.

She managed to reach the Extraordinary Realm relying on her own strength.

Some people are just like this.

At certain levels, their cultivation progresses very slowly.

But once they cross that level, their speed of cultivation becomes very fast.

It's all individual, I guess.

Su Chen looked at the two potions, squinting his eyes.

Of course, he knew about these side effects.

He even knew Shura Potion No. 3 would have a 30 percent mortality rate, reducing life-span by thirty years.

Shura Potion No. 4, a 40 percent mortality rate, reducing life-span by forty years.

...

Shura Potion No. 7, a 70 percent mortality rate, reducing life-span by seventy years!

Of course, this number is not entirely accurate because for some people, after using the Shura Potion, their cultivation level advances to the next realm.

Their physical constitution, as well as their lifespan, would both increase.

"Buddy, you wouldn't choose to use Shura Potion No. 2, would you?" The Boss asked in disbelief.

If it was only a 10 percent mortality rate, some might try it.

But 20 percent, along with a reduction of thirty years' life-span, even the most audacious would not attempt it lightly.

Naturally, the Boss hopes Su Chen would use Shura Potion No. 2.

Su Chen is still so young, even if his life-span is reduced by thirty years, he could still live another twenty or thirty years.

To serve him for another twenty or thirty years, that would be more than enough.

After all, the Boss is now also in his forties, and in another twenty or thirty years, he will be in his sixties or seventies.

By then, his desire for power may not be as strong as it is now.

Su Chen fell into contemplation.

Catherine watched Su Chen with a nervous expression.

Of course, she hoped that Su Chen would use No. 1 Shura Potion.

After all, the survival rate is much higher with No. 1 Shura Potion.

But using No. 2 Shura Potion...

"I choose to use Shura Potion No. 2!" After a long while, Su Chen slowly said.

Using Shura Potion No. 2!

Catherine was completely stunned.

She had never expected Su Chen to make such a choice.

Does he really want her so badly?

Is she worth him taking such a big risk?

Her father had never even glanced at her properly...

At first, Catherine thought that Su Chen was only captivated by her beauty.

But now...

If it was just for beauty.

He already has Minako Ozawa and Tanoyu Kyou.

At this moment, Catherine felt incredibly conflicted.

She had never experienced romance.

She didn't know what her feelings for Su Chen were like.

She even less knew what to do.

"Oh? Buddy, are you aware that using Shura Potion No. 2 could very well lead to death, and even if you're lucky to survive, it will reduce your life-span by thirty years. Is it worth it for a woman?" the Boss asked, squinting his eyes.

He was very surprised by Su Chen's decision.

Upon hearing this, Su Chen just shook his head and said, "Boss, I think it's worth it!"

Hearing Su Chen's words, the Boss nodded approvingly and responded, "Very good!"

Su Chen immediately picked up the syringe of Shura Potion No. 1.

Catherine watched this scene dumbfoundedly, wanting to stop him but powerless to do so.

Even if she had the power, she had no reason.

After all, Su Chen had said.

He's doing it for the glory of a lifetime.

Not just for her.

However, just as Su Chen was about to inject himself, he suddenly stopped.

"Then, Boss, we have an agreement, as long as I use the Shura Potion, you will grant my request."

"I keep my word!" the Boss said with a faint smile, thinking Su Chen had second thoughts, and added, "As long as you're willing to use the Shura Potion, I will fulfill your request!"

"Good!"

Without another word, Su Chen prepared to use the Shura Potion.

"Wait, let Catherine guide you on how to use it," the Boss suggested.

"Come with me," Catherine said, her heart secretly elated, yet she didn't show it.

And so, Su Chen followed Catherine to the second floor.

"Everyone, disperse," the Boss told the other women, and he himself returned to the third floor.

"Will he succeed?" Tanoyu Kyou asked Minako Ozawa in a low, clenched voice.

"How should I know!" Minako Ozawa stormed off to her room in a huff.

For a moment, she wished so much that Su Chen was doing it for her.

If Su Chen would go to such lengths for her, what was wrong with abandoning the Boss for him?

Arriving at Catherine's room, Catherine locked the door from the inside, then said seriously to Su Chen, "Su Chen, listen to me, don't use the Shura Potion. I will find a way to send you out, back to your own country, and I'll give you some money, enough for you to live a very long time..."

Upon hearing Catherine's words, Su Chen's eyes brimmed with emotion.

Although this woman was not articulate and always cold, pushing people far away.

But he knew that inside, Catherine's heart was especially soft.

"Minako, if I left, what would you do? The Boss won't let you go, right!" Su Chen said.

"It's none of your business," Catherine frowned.

Hearing this, Su Chen shrugged his shoulders and replied, "Then, my business is none of your concern either."
