Although Lu Shan's words were arrogant, Su Wuchen felt he wasn't wrong.
Su Wuchen, with only the sixth level of the Blood Essence Realm, couldn't possibly fight against a Mortal Martial Realm expert.
The difference in realms was too great.
Even if he was currently a swordsman, he couldn't bridge the gap in cultivation between himself and Lu Shan.
At this moment, Lu Shan suddenly activated the spiritual energy within his body. A terrifying aura erupted from him, sweeping towards Su Wuchen and shocking everyone present.
Su Wuchen's expression turned serious.
Lu Shan put the broadsword in his spatial ring, then charged at Su Wuchen.
Su Wuchen held his sword and swung it.
"A mere piece of broken metal dares to try and strike me?"
"Like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, you will… shatter!"
Lu Shan sneered dismissively before throwing a punch.
His fist was wrapped in fierce spiritual energy, smashing heavily against Su Wuchen's sword.
Clang!
The sword in Su Wuchen's hand was instantly reduced to fragments of scrap metal by Lu Shan's punch.
Su Wuchen was startled.
His body immediately wanted to retreat.
But it was too late!
Lu Shan charged forward, throwing another punch that slammed directly into Su Wuchen's chest.
Bang—
Su Wuchen was knocked off the life-and-death arena by the force of the blow, his body crashing to the ground.
He clutched his chest, coughing up a mouthful of blood, his face paling slightly.
Everyone gasped in amazement.
A Mortal Martial Realm expert was terrifying indeed!
Su Wuchen slowly stood up, his gaze fixed solemnly on Lu Shan.
He knew that he wasn't a match for Lu Shan, not yet!
If he continued fighting, he would likely be killed by Lu Shan.
But a gentleman seeks revenge, even if it takes ten years.
So, at this moment…
He had to escape from here first, and then seek revenge later.
He looked at Lu Shan, his gaze icy. "So, it's Lu Shan of the Luo Tian Sect, is it? I will remember this humiliation. I swear, one day… I will make you pay a hundredfold!"
Su Fangfang quickly reminded Lu Shan, "Senior Brother Lu Shan, he's trying to escape! Don't let him get away!"
A mocking smirk curled at the corner of Lu Shan's mouth. "Don't worry, Junior Sister. A mere ant in the sixth level of the Blood Essence Realm dares to dream of escaping under my nose? Hmph, what a foolish fantasy!"
He vanished from where he stood, reappearing in front of Su Wuchen at an incredible speed.
He quickly reached out his right hand, grabbing Su Wuchen by the neck and lifting him into the air. "If a Blood Essence Realm Eighth Layer expert took a punch from me, they'd be dead for sure!"
"Even a Blood Essence Realm Tenth Layer expert would be severely injured if they took a punch from me!"
"But you, a mere little ant in the Blood Essence Realm Sixth Layer, took a punch and didn't die!"
"You really surprised me, kid!"
"However, no matter how tough your bones are, you can't escape death today! Die!"
He finished speaking.
The grip of his right hand on Su Wuchen's neck tightened instantly.
Su Wuchen, in turn, clawed at Lu Shan's right arm, struggling with all his might.
His face was flushed crimson, contorted in a mask of agony.
He was already struggling to breathe.
Seeing this, many people cast sympathetic glances at Su Wuchen.
"Indeed, those who offend disciples of the Luo Tian Sect never fare well!"
"Yes, it seems Su Wuchen is about to be killed!"
Su Fangfang and the rest of the Su family wore expressions of gloating satisfaction.
"Could it be… am I really going to die here?"
Su Wuchen was unwilling to accept his fate. "No… I can't, I can't just die like this!"
Thinking this, he began to frantically circulate the Chaos Overlord Body Technique!
As the technique ran, the Chaos Divine Cauldron within his body trembled slightly. Then, the palm of his hand, which was gripping Lu Shan's right arm, suddenly generated a terrifying suction force!
This suction force began to wildly devour the spiritual energy and blood essence from Lu Shan's body.
Su Wuchen was stunned.
He had forgotten!
The Chaos Overlord Body Technique could originally devour everything that possessed power.
So that means he can also devour other people's power and use it for himself.
"You... what kind of sorcery is this?"
Lu Shan's expression changed drastically. After sensing something was wrong, he instinctively loosened his grip on Su Wuchen's neck.
But Su Wuchen's hands were still tightly gripping his right arm.
"Brat, you're asking for death!"
Enraged, Lu Shan threw a left punch at Su Wuchen.
Seeing this!
Only then did Su Wuchen release his grip, his body suddenly retreating.
As his body flew backward, in that instant!
He swiftly extended his right hand.
He pressed his thumb against the nail of his middle finger and flicked it towards Lu Shan's head.
Whoosh!
A wisp of sword qi shot forth from his fingertip, like a thread of icy cold light, piercing towards Lu Shan's head.
"Argh…"
Lu Shan, already in a state of utter panic, was instantly struck in his right eye by that wisp of sword qi.
He cried out in agony, his hands desperately covering his bloodied right eye.
Su Wuchen didn't hesitate; he turned and fled, quickly escaping the Su family compound.
Everyone present was stunned by the sight.
They hadn't expected such a turn of events.
Not only had Su Wuchen crippled Lu Shan's right eye, but he'd also run away!
"Boss!"
Zhang Fan and Liu Ziwen rushed over to help Lu Shan.
"Get away!"
Enraged, Lu Shan immediately shook off their support.
He stared in the direction Su Wuchen had fled, gnashing his teeth hysterically. "Damn brat! Dared to blind my right eye! I'll kill him!"
Su Fangfang walked over, her face filled with apology. "Lu... Senior Brother Lu Shan, I'm sorry! If it wasn't for helping me, you wouldn't have..."
"Junior Sister, it has nothing to do with you. You don't need to blame yourself."
Lu Shan cut off Su Fangfang, forcibly suppressing his anger.
Before he truly had Su Fangfang, he didn't want to appear too uncomposed in front of her.
He issued orders to his two underlings. "Zhang Fan, Liu Ziwen, that brat is already injured and won't have gotten far. Come with me to chase him! Once we catch him, I'll skin him alive and tear out his tendons! Chase him!"
"Yes, Boss!"
Zhang Fan and Liu Ziwen nodded in response.
The three of them charged in the direction Su Wuchen had fled.
Su Fangfang turned to the rest of the Su family, her gaze settling on Su Yaoguang. "Great Elder, you stay behind to guard the family. Also, all experts within the Blood Essence Realm, immediately follow me to pursue and kill Su Wuchen!"
"Yes, Young Miss!"
After escaping the Su family, Su Wuchen sprinted all the way, heading towards the outskirts of Muyu City.
He had blinded Lu Shan in one eye, and Lu Shan would definitely come after him.
Therefore, he didn't dare to stop at all.
Soon, he had fled outside Muyu City.
And, as he had expected, Lu Shan and the others had already caught up.
"You little brat, stop right there!"
Lu Shan charged at the front of the group.
Upon seeing Su Wuchen, he furiously accelerated.
He just wanted to kill Su Wuchen quickly to avenge his lost eye.
Su Wuchen's face darkened.
If he was caught…
He knew he would be dead for sure!
"Looks like the only option is to escape into the Black幽 Forest, huh?"
Su Wuchen was now several miles outside of Muyu City.
Ahead, a vast forest loomed.
This was the Black幽 Forest.
The Black幽 Forest spanned hundreds of miles, an incredibly expansive area teeming with countless treasures.
Even many influential figures from the Tianhe Dynasty would occasionally venture into the forest to seek out these treasures.
However, the forest also concealed many dangerous threats.
The妖兽, in particular, posed the greatest risk to humans.
The deeper one ventured into the forest, the more powerful and terrifying the demonic beasts became.
It was said that even King Martial Realm experts who entered the forest's core would only have a one-in-ten chance of survival.
Therefore, the people of Muyu City dared not easily enter the forest, and they regarded it as a forbidden area.
But at this moment, Su Wuchen was driven to a desperate situation.
Can't worry about that anymore. Entering might offer a sliver of hope; not entering guarantees death!
Thinking this, Su Wuchen charged into the forest without hesitation.
Seeing this, Lu Shan and the others immediately stopped in their tracks.
Zhang Fan said, "That kid actually dared to enter the Black幽 Forest. He's definitely dead now!"
Lu Shan said coldly, "Hmph, I want to see him alive or see his corpse. That kid blinded my right eye. Even if I can't kill him myself, I have to see his body with my own eyes to find some peace. Chase after him!"
"Senior Brother Lu Shan!"
Su Fangfang caught up with the people from the Su family.
She looked at Lu Shan and said, "I want to go in with you too. Su Wuchen killed my father and brother. This hatred is irreconcilable. I must see his corpse with my own eyes before I can rest!"
"Alright!"
Lu Shan nodded slightly, "However, the Black幽 Forest is too big. We have to split up to find that kid faster. Junior Sister, you team up with me. Let Zhang Fan and Liu Ziwen lead you and the people from the Su family. How does that sound?"
Su Fangfang thought about it.
"Alright, I'll follow Senior Brother Lu Shan's decision!" she nodded in agreement.
After entering the Black幽 Forest, Su Wuchen clutched his injured chest and continued forward.
Lu Shan could kill a Blood Essence Realm eighth layer expert with a single punch.
A single punch could severely injure a Blood Essence Realm tenth layer expert.
The reason he hadn't died after taking Lu Shan's punch was naturally because of his Chaos Overlord Body Technique.
The Chaos Overlord Body Technique was incredibly powerful, absolutely domineering!
After possessing the Chaos Overlord Body Technique…
Although he was only at the sixth level of the Blood Essence Realm, the strength of his body was comparable to a half-step Mortal Martial Realm expert, far surpassing others at his level.
Therefore, even after taking a punch from Lu Shan, he was only injured, not killed.
