Chapter 131 The son who's demanding money, the mother who's courting death
Chapter 131 The Debt-Collecting Son, the Reckless Mother (Third Update, Please Follow for More)
He Yuan's face immediately turned extremely ugly, not only his, but also the entire squad behind him.
Xu Rong's threat was simple and direct. Their rapid growth and comfortable life over the years were largely due to Xu Rong's support.
Now Xu Rong has gone mad for her son, insisting that they send someone to destroy a powerful territory, even threatening them with resources, putting everyone in a dilemma.
But at this moment, no one dared to openly oppose He Yuan, because he was a level 5 professional, and with his excellent equipment and source energy skills, he could overpower these level 3 and 4 professionals all by himself.
Although He Yuan was furious, he couldn't bring himself to be ruthless when he thought of his wife of many years. He could only whisper words of advice.
"Even if we were to take action, we would have to do the math first. How could we do it in broad daylight? If someone saw us and reported it to the city lord, we would be punished by him."
But Xu Rong just stared at him coldly, showing him no respect whatsoever.
"I don't want to hear any more nonsense. I'll only ask you one question: are you going to make a move or not?"
Just as they were at an impasse, Erhu stood on the watchtower and shouted into the courtyard.
"Fang Si, is that the He family's convoy? I saw exactly three cars parked on the other side of the bridge!"
Upon hearing the erhu's shout, the people in the courtyard quickly climbed up the watchtower.
Fang Si glanced at them and nodded: "It's He Yuan and his wife, but why are they stopped over there on the bridge? It looks like they're still arguing?"
Sui An took the binoculars from Erhu and, after examining them for a moment, found them to be quite exaggerated.
"Wow, what a fierce woman! No wonder He Chong is so crazy. Are these men even men? They're being scolded so badly and they don't dare to talk back."
"Erhu, your wife won't be like this in the future, will she?"
Erhu nudged Sui An with his elbow: "Nonsense, I'm definitely going to find a gentle, generous, and beautiful wife!"
After saying that, he turned his gaze to Wang Hu on the stage in the courtyard and asked with a smile, "Isn't that right, Tiger?"
Wang Hu scratched his head, thought for a moment, and replied, "Just be gentle."
Fang Si, who was in the courtyard, glanced at Wang Hu casually, and her lips twitched slightly.
He coughed and changed the subject back to He Yuan and his wife: "Should we go now, or wait for them to arrive?"
"Let's just go. Even if they get closer, my Sword Star won't reach them. I'll have Lu Ling lead the charge, and you guys clean up the mess!"
Without saying a word, Sui An directly consumed the talisman on the back of his hand and summoned the talisman spirit on the watchtower.
The closest point on Line 7 is over 300 meters away, so Jianxing can't shoot at it.
Erhu and Fang Si both jumped down from the watchtower and quickly returned to the house to retrieve their weapons.
"I'll go first, you guys prevent them from escaping!"
Sui An almost burst out laughing. Sure enough, man proposes, God disposes. Fate was on his side. He looked at Xu Rong, who was still pointing at him from a distance, and almost laughed in anger.
"Xu Rong keeps pointing at me, is she trying to get He Yuan to hit me?"
The thought processes of this mother and son were completely beyond Sui An's expectations; clearly, there was no irreconcilable hatred between the two families at the beginning.
Even though he was initially affected by the rift, Sui An didn't harbor much hatred. After all, he had indeed made money. At most, he would complain a bit, but he wouldn't really do anything to him.
As a result, this guy offered a reward and drugged the victim, ultimately ruining his own life.
This is a classic case of reaping what you sow!
He Yuan was trying his best to appease his wife, but Xu Rong was determined to make a move today.
Yu Guangzhong seemed to vaguely see something leaping out of that territory in the distance.
The next moment, a long, icy blue streak shot straight toward them. He Yuan felt a chill run down his spine, as if he were sensing the impending doom.
Without a second thought, he picked up the still-chattering Xu Rong and jumped out of the car.
"Get out of the way!"
"boom!"
Before his voice had even finished, an ice-blue spear fell to the ground. The immense impact, carrying with it an extremely cold chill, was like a frost storm that overturned the three transport vehicles on the spot.
In an instant, all the professionals on the three vehicles were thrown about.
Several level-four professionals managed to jump out and avoid most of the impact, but the remaining six low-level professionals were not so lucky and were instantly frozen into ice sculptures by the frost storm.
The spirit appeared silently beside the spear, but only stayed for a moment before picking it up again and disappearing from the spot.
This time, He Yuan couldn't care less about Xu Rong. In a hurry, he drew the black longsword from his waist and tried to fight back.
"when!"
The immense force sent him flying back several meters, his legs carving huge trenches in the wasteland.
"What exactly are you?!"
He Yuan shouted, his eyes filled with confusion.
This illusory figure, seemingly real yet illusory, appears to be a clone of a professional formed from some kind of energy, but it is even more powerful than the user's own strength.
Moreover, her source energy is extremely special, chilling to the bone. As soon as her longsword touched her, frost began to spread from the blade.
Even though he was an ice-type combat professional, his attempts to activate his ice-type source energy to fight against the cold air had little effect.
He had never seen such terrifying power of frost!
Just outrageous!
Even the ice-elemental beings were not as terrifying as the one before him.
Could it be a special source energy technique of a high-level professional?
The spirit did not respond. The combined attack from the four level-four combat professionals behind him, with its four source energies of gold, yellow, cyan, and red intertwining and colliding, formed a huge shockwave, but it did not harm the spirit in the slightest.
With a quick flick of his body, he easily dodged the attack.
Sui An only set He Yuan as his target.
Xu Rong was thrown to the ground several times by the force of the impact, her once fair face now covered with scratches from the pebbles and blood.
She crawled backward on the ground, staring in terror at the strange entity before her; she had never seen anything like it before.
"What is this thing? A source beast?"
"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
Although He Yuan was knocked back with one blow, his equipment shone brightly, and each piece seemed to be extremely extraordinary.
With his full power activated, the armor and weapons around him shimmered with a peculiar light, seemingly containing special effects that boosted his strength, allowing him to fight against the spirit.
At this moment, He Yuan was even able to fight a level 5 elite source beast on his own.
With the added constraint of four level-four professionals, Lu Ling was unable to subdue him for the time being.
However, his source energy essence was still inferior. After only a dozen or so exchanges, his arms were already invaded by the icy and bone-chilling frost energy, and they were gradually becoming numb.
Sure enough, as the symptoms became more and more obvious, his arm movements could no longer keep up with the spirit. The spirit knocked his weapon away with a single blow, and the tip of the spear struck him, causing blood to spurt out and fly into the distance.
"Captain He!"
"team leader!"
"Big brother!"
The four of them suddenly roared in alarm. In terms of strength alone, this mysterious being was only slightly stronger than Captain He at this moment, but her skills were strange and her speed was extremely fast. She could always dodge their attacks with the smallest movements.
That peculiar, icy power completely suppressed their source energy.
He Yuan's retreat caused immense suffering to the four Level 4 professionals around him. The Lu Ling's full-force attack swept them away, sending them flying several meters before slamming them heavily onto the wasteland.
At this moment, Fang Si and Erhu also arrived. Facing four seriously injured level four professionals, and with the blessing of the flag protecting them, they directly chose to activate their source energy skills and blast them away.
Unable to dodge in time, the two level-four professionals were immediately struck in the chest and slammed into the yellow earth.
Lu Ling had already caught up with He Yuan, who had just landed, and thrust his spear down. He Yuan raised his hands to try to grasp the spear, but Lu Ling simply shook the spear, and a burst of force sent his hands flying away.
His neck was wide open, and the sharp tip of the spear pierced through his neck, splattering blood everywhere.
He Yuan stared wide-eyed as the blood on his mouth and neck was quickly frozen by the ice. The blood then spread into his body, turning into an ice sculpture before he fell to the ground.
Lu Ling turned around and looked behind her, seeing that Fang Si and Er Hu had taken down the four level-four professionals one by one after beating the drowning dog.
"That's what you call getting something without any effort!"
Erhu grinned maliciously as he walked toward Xu Rong in the distance. There was a wet patch on the ground, indicating that he had been so frightened that he had lost control of his bladder.
Fang Si suddenly reached out and stopped Erhu, saying softly, "Let me finish this!"
Erhu was equally decisive, turning his head directly and saying, "Okay, you can have it. I'll go clean up the mess!"
Xu Rong stared wide-eyed at Fang Si as she approached, exclaiming, "Fang Si, how could it be you! What are you doing in this orphanage?"
Fang Si asked softly, "Master Xu, are you aware that your son kidnapped my parents?"
"What! Kidnapping your parents?"
Xu Rong was stunned, but she quickly recovered and let out a fierce roar.
"It's you!"
"It was you who followed that orphan to kill Xiao Yuan!"
"I've been so good to you, why did you kill Xiaoyuan!"
At this moment, Xu Rong seemed to have lost all fear, only hatred welling up from the bottom of her heart. She was not afraid of Fang Si at all, and even wanted to stand up and scratch his face.
Fang Si stepped on Xu Rong's chest, slamming her hard onto the ground, and shook his head.
"As expected, the bond between mother and child is incurable!"
"You were the ones who attacked us, yet you turn around and blame us for retaliating? Is that your logic?!"
Xu Rong seemed to still want to struggle, but Fang Si was already extremely annoyed and didn't want to listen anymore. He suddenly raised the long knife in his hand and swung it downwards.
Sure enough, an exceptionally bright golden shield quietly appeared, deflecting his foot that was stepping on Xu Rong and the blade that was swinging down.
"So, he really does have a secret treasure protecting him?"
But how long can such a treasure delay things?
Knowing that her death was inevitable, Xu Rong kept cursing.
But Fang Si ignored it all and kept slashing, until the shield finally shattered. The remaining force of the blade swung downwards, spraying out a mouthful of blood.
"An eye for an eye, it's time to end this!"
The He family, which had once given Sui An a lot of headaches, was suddenly and inexplicably wiped out, leaving him feeling somewhat surreal and bored.
"Sigh, what kind of trouble is this?"
Erhu and Fang Si didn't stay on Line 7 for long. They searched the bodies for valuables, threw them into the car, and then dumped the corpses into the river. The strong smell of blood attracted some large fish, and the river surface began to boil.
After towing the three vehicles back to their territory, Erhu suddenly laughed and said, "The night before last, I was saying that the He family's car was too wasteful to drive back, but today the He family sent over three small transport vehicles."
"This time we don't have to worry about retaliation against these cars. However, it seems that they were damaged by your spirit and can't start. They need to be towed away and repaired to remove the 'He' character."
Sui An walked out of the courtyard and looked around. The basic components of the three vehicles were fine, with no obvious damage or cracks, so there shouldn't be any major problems. It was probably because some energy transmission components were damaged by the frost, which is why they couldn't move.
"You can take the car to get repaired; I'll cover the cost!"
"As for weapons and equipment, choose what suits you. The items used by these four level four professionals seem to have overlapping attributes with yours."
"Alright!" Erhu rummaged through a set of leather armor in the carriage and said with a grin, "I just saw this leather armor and it looks pretty good, so I won't be polite!"
Seeing this, Fang Si also took a set of level four light armor. This was the equipment worn by that metal-attribute professional. It was a bit damaged, but not too badly damaged, and could still be repaired.
"Thank you!"
Among the vehicle armor, the most valuable piece is the light armor set taken from He Yuan. It's a level 4 blue set, and its value is similar to the set that Ji Zi was wearing, except that the set effect is to increase strength and speed.
Fang Si and Erhu continued to avoid the situation, perhaps because they felt the price of the blue suit was still too high.
Sui An knew this, but he didn't plan to sell the two sets of blue armor. Perhaps one day they would save enough money, and he could sell them to them at a low price.
What he cared more about was the secret treasure on Xu Rong's body among the spoils of war he had seized.
Sure enough, this treasure was exactly the same as the level 4 blue treasure [Blessing Amulet] on He Chong's body, as if it were mass-produced.
"Could this secret treasure, like the Source Artifacts, be mass-produced?"
After thinking for a moment, Sui An turned to the two men who were inspecting their armor and asked, "Have you ever seen a craftable treasure?"
"Secret treasures can be made?" Erhu looked up in surprise, put down the leather armor in his hand, and looked at the golden necklace in Sui An's hand.
"I haven't seen many, but I've never heard of anyone being able to make them."
Fang Si stood up and said, "I have seen the same secret treasure before. Secret treasures can definitely be made, but I have never seen any profession that can make them. They are probably a specialty of the Origin Realm."
Sui An raised the necklace in his hand and said softly, "Both He Chong and his mother have this golden necklace treasure. The name and effect are the same. I suspect it was mass-produced."
"Actually, it's quite normal. This thing isn't naturally formed. Perhaps there's some kind of human civilization in the Origin Realm that has this manufacturing method, but we just don't have the blueprints or formula."
Erhu shook his head dismissively, and after speaking, he squatted down again to examine his leather armor.
Sui An put the necklace in his pocket. This thing, like He Chong's, had already taken effect, so it wouldn't be of much use for him in the short term.
"If only I knew how to make this thing, I could carry around a dozen of them and not be afraid of a sudden attack."
Erhu pouted: "Hey, anything can happen in dreams!"
Sui An smiled and spread his hands: "Then give me back my leather armor!"
"Yes, there must be this blueprint!"
