Chapter 120: Break Through

Chapter 120: Break Through

As Su Zhan calmly watched Chen Jue's terrified and regretful face in death, he felt a sense of tranquility. "You intended to annihilate my entire clan, how could I spare you?"

After collecting all of Chen Jue's treasures, Su Zhan turned his gaze towards the trembling members of the Wu Kingdom's Liu Family, who were all at the half-step Fish-Dragon realm.

"You"

"Su Zhan, please understand! We, the Liu Family, were completely coerced! We detest Chen Jue, no, that beast, as much as you do!"

"That's right! As members of the martial world, how could we engage in such despicable acts?!"

"It was all Chen Jue, Zhao Fang, and Liu Badao who caused all this trouble!"

"Although we are at the half-step Fish-Dragon realm, you know very well, Su Zhan, that we are nothing compared to Liu Badao, Chen Jue, and Zhao Fang! How could we dare to defy them?" The half-step Fish-Dragon realm elders of the Liu Family immediately dropped to their knees, trembling and begging for mercy.

Even the half-step Fish-Dragon realm individuals from outside the Liu Family hurriedly kneeled as well. Although they were not involved in this matter, everyone kneeled because standing out would attract Su Zhan's attention. If he were to find any reason to vent his anger on them, they would be in tears.

The numerous half-step Fish-Dragon realm figures in the Wu Kingdom, who once wielded great power, were all on edge, waiting for Su Zhan to speak.

Su Zhan looked at the Liu Family members and said, "But I did kill your family's patriarch after all. You must hold a deep hatred for me and yearn for revenge day and night, right? In that case"

"No!"

Realizing the implication of Su Zhan's words, the Liu Family's eldest elder hurriedly interjected, "We would never dare to seek revenge on Su Zhan! Moreover, Liu Badao committed such heinous acts, betraying the entire eastern martial world. He deserves to be condemned by everyone!"

"Lord Su, you have eliminated the scourge for our Liu Family. On behalf of all the members of the Liu Family, I sincerely express our gratitude to Lord Su!"

"Thank you, Lord Su, for your great kindness and benevolence!"

"That's right! We almost became the culprits of the entire martial world. Lord Su, you are truly our benefactor!"

"The gratitude for Lord Su will be eternally remembered!"nove(l)bi(n.)com

"We can only express our gratitude. How could we possibly seek revenge?"

The other senior elders of the Liu Family quickly echoed, their will to survive at its peak.

"You still want to thank me?" Su Zhan was taken aback for a moment, then a thought struck him and he smiled, "So, how do you plan to show your gratitude?"

"Our Liu Family has a king-grade longsword that we are willing to offer to Lord Su!"

"And there is also a spiritual stone vein. If Lord Su wants it, feel free to take it!"

"Oh, by the way, our Liu Family owns numerous brothels in the mortal realm! The women inside excel in various arts and talents. We are willing to give all these establishments to Lord Su!"

Although the expressions of gratitude and offers made by the Liu Family were prompted by their desperate desire to survive, when they saw Su Zhan genuinely asking, the senior elder of the Liu Family did not hold back and directly presented a series of offers.

"You want to go alone against the Sole Sword Sect?"

"Not to confront them, but to reason with them," Su Zhan shook his head. "I believe they will listen to reason."

"The people of the Sole Sword Sect will listen to you reason?" Chen Changfeng and the others looked puzzled.

"What if they don't listen?" Qin Jincheng asked with concern.

"If they don't listen" Su Zhan pondered for a moment and said seriously, "Then I will have to kill them first and reason with the remaining ones."

Chen Changfeng: ""

"Well, let's not discuss this matter for now. I'm about to go to the Heaven-Connecting Martial Ground to make a breakthrough to the Fish-Dragon Realm. Elder Chen, Sect Master, I won't accompany you back."

"You want to break through to the Fish-Dragon Realm?"

Chen Changfeng and Qin Jincheng exchanged glances and smiled, "For such a momentous occasion, how can we not have a reason to witness it in person? Besides, although our cultivation may not compare to yours, we can still protect and assist you, preventing any disturbances from demonic beasts or the like."

Li Qingyang also hurriedly spoke, "Lord Su, with your invincible power today and your imminent breakthrough to the Fish-Dragon Realm, I will do my utmost to protect and assist you, ensuring that no person or demonic beast will disturb you!"

Empress Ye Qingyu smiled lightly, "For such a grand event, how could I be absent? I have entrusted the affairs of the kingdom to my ministers, so there should be no concerns in the near future. If Lord Su Zhan doesn't mind, I would also like to witness the extraordinary style of Lord Su's breakthrough to the Fish-Dragon Realm!"

"The Empress jests. In that case, let us depart together."

Having finished collecting the belongings of Liu Badao and Zhao Fang, Su Zhan boarded the white jade boat and set off towards the Fish-Dragon Realm of the Liu Family in Wu Kingdom.

Outside the Celestial Mountains.

In the Tianxuan Empire, the Southern Territory, and the Nine Lakes County.

As one of the most powerful forces within a range of thousands of miles in Nine Lakes County, the Sole Sword Sect's architectural complex alone spanned an area of over a hundred miles.

The sect's influence extended over a radius of three thousand miles, and hundreds of families, sects, and other forces had to pay tribute to the Sole Sword Sect each year to survive!

At this moment.

Sole Sword Sect's main hall.

Chen Ye, the Sect Master who had reached the pinnacle of the third transformation of the Fish-Dragon Realm, stared at the shadow pearl in his hand, watching the displayed images above.

"Hmph! This land of the eastern region barbarians is truly filled with rats. That Su Zhan was arrogant just a moment ago, but as soon as he heard about my intention to wipe out his entire family, he immediately stopped. It's obvious that he was fearful and panicked, yet he still tried to act unyielding. Truly laughable!" Seeing Su Zhan pause after Chen Jue threatened to exterminate his family, Chen Ye sneered.

Standing below, an elder who had come to report affairs saw this scene and nodded, laughing as he watched the images on the shadow pearl. "These barbarians are all weaklings, naturally born to be slaves. Where would they truly darehim, him!"

Seeing the scene of Su Zhan striking with a punch, the elder of the Sole Sword Sect's eyes widened in disbelief and exclaimed, "He dares to kill the young master?!"
