Chapter 757
“Dad, you can't be serious, right?”
The groom, Chen Wei, drew in a sharp breath.
As a practitioner, he naturally understood the value of a top-tier immortal artifact.
That was a treasure even the City Lord's Mansion coveted!
“There’s no mistake. That’s the aura of a top-tier immortal artifact!”
Chen Chaoqian said with absolute certainty.
At the same time, his eyes were locked onto the artifact on the table, afraid it might vanish into thin air.
Liu Qianqian’s mouth slightly agape, looked at Su Bai in disbelief.
She couldn't understand how the useless man she had dumped could possess such a treasure.
If only...
If Su Bai had presented this top-tier immortal artifact as betrothal gifts back then, her mother would have probably scrubbed her clean the same night and thrown her into Su Bai’s bed!
While everyone was in shock and whispering among themselves, Su Bai retrieved the top-tier immortal artifact.
“Su Bai, what do you mean by this?”
Liu’s mother hurriedly shouted, her eyes glued to the top-tier immortal artifact.
“Originally, I did intend to gift this artifact to Liu Qianqian as a wedding present. However...”
Su Bai held the long sword, his tone shifting, “However, I’ve changed my mind now!”
His sharp gaze swept over the Liu and Chen families.
“People like you who are opportunistic, snobbish, and look down on others—you don’t deserve such a generous gift from me.”
“Even if this gift is trash in the eyes of myMaster, you still don’t deserve it!”
At this point, Su Bai abruptly turned around.
He cast one last glance at Liu Qianqian with his peripheral vision.
The last shred of reluctance in his eyes finally dissipated.
“Qianqian, goodbye.”
Farewell, forever.@@@@
However, just as Su Bai was about to leave, a low command stopped him in his tracks.
“Hold it!”
Su Bai slowly turned back to face Chen Chaoqian.
“Is there something you need?”
“Of course, you can’t leave right now!”
Chen Chaoqian said, signaling with his eyes. The guards of the City Lord’s Mansion immediately surrounded him.
Ignoring the encirclement, Su Bai coldly asked, “May I ask, City Lord, why I can’t leave?”
Chen Chaoqian sneered coldly.
“You can leave, but leave the sword behind.”
Su Bai said, “This sword is mine. Are you trying to steal it openly?”
Chen Chaoqian snorted heavily, speaking with righteous indignation.
“Who says this sword is yours? That’s clearly an ancestral treasure of the Chen family, and you dare to steal it on our grand occasion in front of everyone? Do you think the Chen family is blind?” ṝΑΝÒВЁᶊ
After speaking, he turned to Chen Wei and asked, “My son, isn’t this our ancestral treasure?”
Chen Wei paused for just a moment before loudly agreeing, “Yes, Father. This is indeed the ancestral treasure of our Chen family!”
Then, pointing at Su Bai, he shouted harshly, “Quickly return our ancestral treasure, or you’ll never leave the City Lord’s Mansion alive today!”
Su Bai’s power made him seem alien, unrecognizable.
Was this still the clumsy fool from before?
“Father!”
Seeing his father injured, Chen Wei quickly rushed over to support him.
Chen Chaoqian gritted his teeth and took out a jade flute from his bosom, saying, "Quick, summon the ancestor!"
He never expected Su Bai to be so powerful, far beyond his imagination.
The only way to handle this now was to call the ancestor.
“Ah, okay!”
Chen Wei fumbled with the flute and blew it forcefully.
Not long after, a rift tore open in the sky.
An old man with white hair and dressed in black stepped out from the rift.
The overwhelming aura instantly spread throughout the space, making everyone below feel like they couldn’t breathe.
A True Immortal Realm expert!
Everyone’s hearts raced as they gazed upon the white-haired old man, as if looking at a deity.
This was a true immortal!
So, when the old man appeared, everyone knelt on the ground, prostrate.
Only Su Bai remained standing, looking out of place.
“Get down quickly! Do you not want your life?”
Liu Qianqian knelt on the ground, whispering urgently to Su Bai.
Su Bai shook his head and said calmly, “Perhaps the Master can easily take my life, but with them... that’s not enough...”
“You’re beyond reasoning!”
Liu Qianqian bit her lip and no longer paid attention to him.
The True Immortal old man descended and stood proudly in the air.
He looked at Chen Chaoqian and said, “Why did you summon me here?”
Chen Wei quickly explained the situation, embellishing the details a bit, then pleaded, “Please, Ancestor, seek justice for your descendants. Kill this villain, retrieve the artifact, and avenge my father’s severed arm!”
After hearing this, the Chen ancestor felt a doubt arise.
When did the Chen family acquire such an ancestral top-tier immortal artifact?
Why wasn’t I aware of it?
Then he carefully examined Su Bai, who stood still in place. Their eyes met, and in that instant, he felt like he had been struck by lightning.
A powerful surge of spiritual energy rushed into the depths of his mind, nearly scattering his soul!
He was horrified.
The young man in front of him was also a True Immortal Realm expert.
Moreover, his cultivation level was so profound that even the Chen ancestor couldn’t gauge it!
If the two were to fight, the Chen ancestor feared he wouldn’t last ten rounds against Su Bai!
Realizing this, the Chen ancestor immediately retracted his aura.
From his former divine demeanor, he transformed back into a humble subject.
In the incredulous eyes of the crowd, he directly walked up to Su Bai and respectfully bowed deeply.
“Junior Chen Wu pays his respects to the senior.”
