Su Chengbo walked to the lawn outside. First, he waved his arm in a semi-circle. The surrounding air was attracted by an inexplicable force. It gathered on his fist and rapidly rotated and compressed. A rotating airflow visible to the naked eye was formed in the void.
Big Beard's expression was solemn. He also stretched out his fist. One could see that his fist was faintly covered with a layer of black film.
The two forces collided. "Boom!"
The sound was so loud that it was like a clap of thunder in the void. The microscopic crowd around fell to the ground with a plop. Their heads were buzzing. Those with weaker physiques directly foamed at the mouth and fainted.
Luo Kai was closer to the scene. He was also shaken by the scattered forces and took a few steps back. He was extremely shocked. Was this the strength of a physical master?
A casual strike was not inferior to a high-explosive bomb. He looked at the old man with a messy beard in disbelief. This lazy tramp was really a physical master!
…
Previously, when Luo Kai and Su Wenlin fought, they were both as fast as lightning. They were competing in strength and speed. However, the fight between the two physical masters was like Tai Chi. They both guided each other for a long time before making their moves. However, each time they made a move, the enormous force they carried was somewhat earth-shattering. The sound of thunder kept ringing in the void. The lawn at the center of the fight was soon turned into a big pit.
Luo Kai understood that at their level, it was very difficult to win by relying on speed. They could only try their best to exert their greatest strength. Strength and speed were complementary, but relatively speaking, strength was the foundation of everything. It was like a lion and a cheetah. The cheetah could hardly pose a threat to the lion, but the lion could kill it in one strike. When strength was completely overwhelming, everything else was not a problem.
After a while, Big Beard bent down and held his knees while panting. He waved his hands repeatedly. "I can't win. I can't win. I admit defeat!"
Su Chengbo also stopped with a smile and said, "Old brother, do you mind coming to my house for a cup of tea?"
"No, no, I like to drink. I'm leaving. Bye, bye!"
Big Beard pulled Luo Kai away in a hurry. Big Yellow quickly moved its belly and followed them.
Su Chengbo did not stop him. He sighed with some regret. It was very difficult for a physical trainer like him to exchange pointers with someone of the same level. He looked at the manor that was already in a complete mess and instructed the old housekeeper not far away, "Invite today's guests back."
Then, he looked at his children. Su Wenlin clutched his shoulder and was in a daze. Su Hsiao-mei stared blankly at the direction where Luo Kai and the others had left.
"Wenlin, little sister, come with me."
The three of them came to Su Chengbo's study. Su Chengbo first looked at the injury on Su Wenlin's shoulder and frowned. "It's a bit serious. Go back and apply some bone healing ointment."
Su Wenlin's face was full of shame. When Su Chengbo was not here, he was the master. He did not expect to provoke such a powerful enemy. He said humbly, "Father, I didn't handle this matter well."
Su Chengbo already understood the whole story. He shook his head and said, "It's not your fault. Some troubles can't be avoided."
"Father, what is that old man?
Why does a physical trainer look like that? "Su Wenlin asked unwillingly.
Su Chengbo's face turned cold and his voice became stern. "Wenlin, this matter is over. In the future, you can't take revenge. Although our Three-Eyed Race is huge, we can't easily provoke physical trainers!"
Su Wenlin nodded dejectedly. "Yes."
Su Chengbo sat on the solid wooden chair in front of the desk. Seeing that Su Hsiao-mei was still in a daze, his expression softened. He said softly, "Little sister, I didn't scare you today, did I?"
Su Hsiao-mei came back to her senses and gently shook her head. "Father, I'm fine."
Su Chengbo looked at her deeply. After a while, he suddenly asked, "Little sister, do you know those two people?"
Su Hsiao-mei hesitated for a while and nodded.
"Little sister, you've never left the house before. How can you know such people?
You know that ugly freak? "Su Wenlin couldn't help but ask in surprise.
Su Hsiao-mei frowned and looked unhappy, but she still said patiently, "When my cousin took me to Longyang City, I accidentally fell into the Dragon Rebel River. At that time, an uncle was taken away by the Long-Mouthed Crocodile in order to save me. I thought he was dead. Today, I saw him in the hall again. Hmm … at that time, he didn't look like he is today."
Then she lowered her head and murmured, "I don't know if it was because of me that he became like this."
"Little sister, why didn't you tell me about this?"
Su Wenlin was shocked. He gritted his teeth and said, "Well, Zang Guixu, that stinky brat, couldn't even protect my little sister!
He even hid it from me for so long! "
Su Chengbo asked softly, "Little sister, are you sure it was the person who saved you?"
"Yes, I recognized him when he talked to me today. He knows a lot of things. Also, Grandpa Big Beard, who fought with father, was also in the Dragon Rebel River at that time."
"Oh, then our Su Family owes him a favor. Well, little sister, go back and have a rest."
Su Hsiao-mei walked to the door and suddenly turned back, "Father, can you help me find him? I'll try to find a way to cure his injuries."
Su Chengbo said dotingly, "Well, he saved my little sister, which means he is our family's benefactor. I will repay him."
Su Hsiao-mei was happy. She pushed the door open and left.
Only Su Chengbo and his son were left in the study. Su Chengbo closed his eyes and tapped the desk gently, as if he was thinking about something.
Su Wenlin knew that his father had something to say to him. However, after waiting for a long time, his father didn't say anything. He asked first, "Father, what was the black flame that the strange man used today? Why was it so terrible?"
Su Chengbo opened his eyes and looked serious. He said in a low voice, "It was a kind of materialized chaotic energy. Not only can he use chaotic energy, but he can also summon elemental energy. His physical skills are also very strong. He should have practiced the physical skills of the ancient religion, which is good at gathering great strength. I have seen countless geniuses, but none of them can be compared with him. To be honest, I really want to kill him today!"
Su Wenlin was shocked. He didn't expect that the strange man could get such a high evaluation from his father. He was jealous and resentful. He said hurriedly, "Father, why didn't you do it?"
Su Chengbo closed his eyes again, but the vertical eye on his forehead opened slightly. Traces of silver light leaked out. He seemed to be answering or muttering, "Maybe it's karma."
"Karma?"
Su Wenlin had a photographic memory since he was young. He immediately thought of an ancient book about karma in his family. As people studied the secrets of life more deeply, many mysterious things became traceable. In simple terms, karma was a big net. Everything in the world, billions of creatures were in this big net. Touching any intersection would affect the whole net, causing countless unpredictable chain reactions. It could even shake the whole net.
The reason why the Three-Eyed Race studied karma was because they were born with the ability to predict danger. This danger foresight was not limited to what was in front of them. They could vaguely perceive the future.
"Well, it's over. Let's not talk about it. Wenlin, you have grown up. There are some things that you should know." Su Chengbo stood up and took out a map from the drawer beside him. He spread it on the table.
Su Wenlin came forward. There was a red circle in the southeast corner of the map. It was Seongma Province where they were.
Su Chengbo asked softly, "Wenlin, do you know why I came all the way to Seongma Province?"
Su Wenlin shook his head blankly. He had wanted to ask this question for a long time. Seongma Province was poor in resources and had a small population. There was no room for development at all. However, his father gave up a lot of good positions to come to this remote country in the south.
Su Chengbo pointed to the center of the map. It was the capital of Higashimogami Province, Shang Jing City. He said coldly, "The newly ascended Emperor of Dongyuan is narrow-minded, self-opinionated, and greedy for grandiose achievements. After he ascended the throne, he began to exclude dissidents. He regarded the majority of mutants as aliens. We, the Three-Eyed Race, were the first to bear the brunt of his oppression."
"If that's the case, why are we still loyal to him?" Su Wenlin was also very angry.
Su Chengbo sighed and said, "Because he is the rightful ruler of the human race. We, the Three-Eyed Race, are founded on benevolence and righteousness. Naturally, we can't do anything wrong."
Then his voice changed, "But we can't not take any precautions. This is why I came to Seongma Province!"
Su Wenlin was stunned and asked tentatively, "Are you planning to be the Great Lord of this country?"
Su Chengbo shook his head, "We, the Three-Eyed Race, have never been a tyrant. The so-called Great Lord is nothing to me."
Su Wenlin was very confused, "Father, what do you mean? Our people are spread all over the human countries. Even if the Emperor of Dongyuan wants to suppress us, it won't be that easy."
Su Chengbo's eyes flashed with a cold light, and said, "The Emperor of Dongyuan has been pushing for a resolution in recent years. He is preparing to change the name of the country to the Empire of Dongyuan. At the same time, he will remove the titles of the major suzerains and change them all to autonomous regions. Many of the Senate support him. Once the resolution is passed, it will provoke a backlash from the major suzerains. It means that the human race is likely to enter the era of hegemony again!
So I want to find a place where my people can settle down. Seongma Province is far away from the battlefield between humans and Direbeasts. It is surrounded by the sea, with the Tieheng Mountains in the north and the Misty Mountains in the west. It is completely separated from the other suzerains. Although the population is small and resources are poor, these two things can be bought. However, a good geographical location can't be bought with money! "
