Of course, that really was exactly what Shao Zhen was thinking!

Otherwise, how could Nangong Xi be together with such an ordinary—no, such a trashy brat like this?!

After all, young girls can never really resist a few sweet words; this brat probably hooked up with Nangong Xi that way and tricked her until she was dizzy!

Originally, Nangong Xi just didn't feel like paying him any attention, but once those words came out, she really did get a bit angry!

Would she not know whether Su Chen was a con man or not?

Just as she was about to argue back, Su Chen lightly tugged her; she glanced at him once, then held her tongue!

But that delicate little face of hers was puffed up with anger!

Su Chen actually found her pretty cute, and quite entertaining too!

Then he looked at Shao Zhen, the corner of his mouth hooking up into a faint, almost indiscernible smile:

"So what you mean is, I sweet-talked her and tricked her?"

"Isn't that exactly it?"

Shao Zhen snorted:

"Just you, with that measly Cave Void Realm Cultivation—what right do you have to be with Miss Nangong?!"

"Forget being together, even just knowing her is already your great honor!"

"Even if I really did sweet-talk her and tricked her, what the hell can you do to me?"

Su Chen said with a faint smile.

Shao Zhen was so furious he almost spat blood on the spot!

Fine, let Nangong Xi not give him any face, but what the hell was this brat supposed to be?

On what grounds was he acting this cocky too?!

Though Su Chen's attitude looked very calm, it was exactly that calmness that made Shao Zhen's rage feel like it had nowhere to go!

Because the other party's whole demeanor was clearly: you can't stand me, so what are you going to do about it?

"Hmph, let me give you a piece of advice: you'd better stay away from Miss Nangong!"

Shao Zhen forcibly suppressed the fire in his heart and said:

"If the Nangong Clan finds out, the consequences won't be something you can bear!"

Once he said that, quite a few people around nodded in agreement!

Indeed, if those two really ended up together and the Nangong Clan found out, that'd be a disaster, wouldn't it?!

Once the Nangong Clan got angry, that fury would definitely be far beyond what he could handle!

Even if he had a thousand lives, they wouldn't be enough!

Hearing this, Su Chen didn't speak; he just looked at the other man with a playful gaze!

"So, as a person, you should learn to know your place!"

Shao Zhen thought Su Chen had taken his words to heart and gotten scared, so he smiled smugly.

"None of your damn business!"

Just as he was about to say a bit more and vent his pent-up frustration, Su Chen opened his mouth!

Su Chen cocked his head slightly and spat those words out in a flat tone.

The words dropped, and everyone around was stunned!

None of your damn business?!

Did he know who he was talking to?

Even that girl from the Nangong Family just now, when she completely ignored Shao Zhen, she still hadn't said anything this explosive!

Sure enough, as soon as the words fell, Nangong Xi's little mouth parted in surprise as she stared at Su Chen!

But in her heart, she felt that those four words, "None of your damn business," were just too satisfying!

Especially paired with his calm expression—so handsome!

However, that sentence also completely ignited the anger in Shao Zhen's heart!

What's more, he wasn't the type to swallow his temper in the first place, or he wouldn't have shown off by riding that giant leopard Demon Beast over here!

"Brat, do you really think I don't dare do anything to you?"

Shao Zhen's face had gone as black as coal; he gritted his teeth as he spoke, one fist clenched so tight he could strike at any moment!

Nangong Xi was startled by this; she hurriedly stepped forward in one stride and blocked in front of Su Chen:

"Shao Zhen, what do you think you're doing? If you lay a hand on him, I will absolutely not let this go!"

Nangong Xi knew Su Chen was very strong, not as ordinary as he looked on the surface, but in her eyes, there was still a gap between him and Shao Zhen!

Which was only natural—she'd seen Su Chen make a move; the strongest opponent he'd faced had only been around the Fourth Turn!

The Fourth Turn and the Sixth Turn were worlds apart!

Seeing this, Su Chen couldn't help rubbing his nose, feeling both amused and helpless!

Not long ago, it had been Leng Ning standing in front of him; now it was this little girl Nangong Xi!

Do they all look down on him that much?!

Of course, he was actually quite comforted in his heart—this proved that everyone treated him sincerely!

And that was what Su Chen valued the most!

Shao Zhen had originally gotten even more furious when Nangong Xi stepped out again to shield that brat!

But as for laying a hand on Nangong Xi, he really didn't have that kind of guts!

A moment later, a meaningful smile suddenly appeared on his face!

"Fine, since Miss Nangong has said so, then I won't make a move!"

Shao Zhen said with a smile, loosening his clenched fist as well; his whole body relaxed from the tense state it had been in!

Hearing that, Nangong Xi also let out a breath and stepped back to stand beside Su Chen again!

"Rawrr!"

But just then, a sudden roar shook heaven and earth!

Everyone jolted in shock and looked up, only to see that giant leopard Demon Beast suddenly lunging straight at Su Chen, whipping up a massive storm!

In their hearts, everyone thought:

This young man is just a mere Cave Void Realm, while that giant leopard is a Divine Sea Realm Fifth Turn!

With that one pounce, won't this young man be torn to shreds?

Nangong Xi's face changed drastically; she never thought Shao Zhen would be this despicable—he had just promised not to make a move, and in the next instant he sicced that giant leopard Demon Beast on him!

How is that any different from making a move himself?

It was very likely that his own strength wasn't even as great as that giant leopard Demon Beast's!

She was furious and anxious, yet there was nothing she could do right now!

Because the distance was too close to begin with, and the speed was too fast!

Even if she had the time, her strength still wouldn't be enough!

She didn't even dare look at the terrifying scene that was about to unfold!

Yet at that critical instant, a shadowy figure blurred, and in a flash vanished from where it had been!

"Boom!"

The giant leopard Demon Beast actually pounced into thin air; its four paws slammed down, shattering the ground beneath it!

Everyone turned their heads and saw that the young man was already far away!

They were all a bit shocked—this young man's speed wasn't bad at all!

With such a short distance just now, he'd actually managed to dodge!

However, what puzzled them even more right now was what exactly this young man was doing!

Because they noticed that he seemed to be drawing something, faint lines appearing and disappearing in the air!

"Rawrr!"

The giant leopard Demon Beast, having missed its first pounce, let out another heaven-shaking roar and charged headlong toward Su Chen again!

When it was not far from Su Chen, it leaped high once more, jaws wide open, baring its cold, gleaming teeth!

At the same time, its pair of foreclaws swept across, instantly shattering the air itself, its aura overwhelming!

Just then, that young man seemed to finish his work; with a wave of his hand, a glowing Inscription shot toward that giant "tiger" Demon Beast!

Then, it went straight into the giant leopard Demon Beast's head!

"Awooo~~~"

The giant leopard Demon Beast suddenly dropped down, letting out whimpering cries, looking to be in obvious pain…
