I Have A Trillion Protagonist Halos
Chapter 5 - Su Zhaoyue
After a while, Su Tianhai came back to his senses from the shock and exclaimed excitedly, "Great! Great! Today, my Su family has produced a true dragon! Hahaha!"
He burst into laughter and then said, "As for these people… they are all Qi Sea Realm warriors. After we subjugate them, it will greatly improve the strength of our Su family!"
"Then let's take them in!" Su Zhan nodded without much concern.
Su Tianyun patted Su Zhan's shoulder and said with uncontrollable joy, "Zhan'er, if you hadn't killed all those who intended to harm our Su family today, we would have been in great trouble! You really have a set of hidden talents and abilities! Even your old man didn't know about them!"
Su Zhan smiled slightly and said, "Thanks to your medicinal materials, father. But as for killing them all, it seems like one was missed?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Tianyun, who had been standing behind them in a daze, turned pale and his legs went weak. He knelt down on the ground with a thud.
"Su… Su Zhan, Patriarch Su… I, I was just confused for a moment! I had no intention of harming the Su family!"
"I cannot be sure if you had any intention of harming the Su family." Su Zhan's eyes flashed with a cold light as he thrust his sword.
"However, there is no doubt that you wanted me dead!" The icy sword intent descended and Su Tianyun was powerless to resist. He was killed with a single sword strike!
"Father!" Su Heng rushed up and knelt beside Su Tianyun, crying heartbreakingly.
The sins of the father fall upon the son.
Su Zhan glanced at Su Heng and then turned around, ignoring him. Su Tianyun deserved his punishment, and as for Su Heng, he would not have an easy life in the future with his support in the Su family gone.
Then, Su Zhan swept a glance over the many guests present.
He said calmly, "Today, the three major families conspired to harm me together with the elder of the Su family, Su Tianyun. Now that they have received their due punishment, the Su family will collect their assets one by one in the near future. You are all famous people in Azure City, do you have any objections?"
"No, none at all! The three major families deserve their punishment!"
"Young master Su is a natural talent, at the age of 16 he already overwhelmed the three major families!"
"Young Master Su is handsome and talented. I happen to have a daughter who is also beautiful. Would Young Master Su like to meet her?"
"A beauty?" Su Zhan's heart moved slightly and he looked at the person. "How old is your daughter?"
"She's nine years old this year!"
Nine years old!
Damn it, on Earth, nine years old is still an elementary school student! Su Zhan's face turned black. "Get out! Do I look like such a despicable person?!"
The man was depressed and driven out.
In the fantasy world, women become adults at the age of fourteen, and nine years old can already be engaged, so he said such words.
The birthday banquet continued.
However, the guests at the banquet had no mood to eat or drink, all their attention was focused on Su Zhan, who had a calm expression.
"This child is truly a reincarnation of a true dragon. It's not just that he's in the mid-level of Qi Sea realm at the age of sixteen, he actually single-handedly suppressed the three major families! It's so terrifying!"
"The Cold Sword Technique is nothing more than an ordinary sword technique, but in Su Zhan's hands, he can cultivate sword intent. I don't think he's a reincarnation of a true dragon, but rather a reincarnation of a heavenly sword immortal!"
"It's a pity that my daughter is only seven years old. Otherwise, I would have to introduce Young Master Su to her. Sigh!"
The guests drank and talked.
Su Zhan listened on the side feeling somewhat speechless. What were these people thinking? It would be okay if he was seventeen years old.
After dealing with those guests who came to network, Su Zhan continued to eat and drink.
Not long after, the birthday banquet ended. He walked out of the banquet hall and returned to his residence.
In the next few days, the Su family began to take over the territory and resources of the three major families.
And Su Zhan also obtained the top-notch martial arts and techniques of the three major families, all of which were of the top grade techniques in the Azure City.
"Now that I have swordsmanship, I still need a body technique to enhance my combat power! Moreover, because my talent was too poor before, the martial arts I practiced were only ordinary martial arts of the Su family, so I can switch to practicing another one!" Su Zhan murmured to himself, his gaze falling on the dozens of most powerful martial arts and techniques in the entire Azure City.
"Diamond Body Sutra- tempering the body, bones as hard as steel, increases strength."
"Swift Wind Steps- can borrow the power of the wind, make the body ethereal, and increase speed."
"Flame Fist- one punch can form a flame to attack the enemy."
"Shattering Jade Finger- a finger technique that can kill with one blow, only suitable for close combat."
"Cold Jade Art- can cultivate true energy of the ice-cold attribute, which can harm the enemy in large scale battle."
…
He quickly browsed through one martial art after another.
Finally, he chose some that were suitable for him to start practicing.
Half a month later, the Su family completely took over all the power of the three major families and became the only major family in Azure City. And on that day, Su Zhan also walked out of the courtyard.
Compared to half a month ago, he had grown 5cm taller, his muscle lines had become more symmetrical and perfect, and even his demeanor exuded an extraordinary aura, akin to the subtle aloofness of a snow lotus.
This is the change brought to him by the physical martial arts "Diamond Body Sutra" and the cultivation technique"Cold Jade Art".
In this half month, he has mastered three martial arts, and all of them have reached the the pinnacle level!
However, the Halo Panel has not changed, and the new Halo has not been activated.
"It seems that if I want to activate a new Halo, I can't just hide here and practice. I have to go out and walk around!"
"This world is not just about human cultivation. Beasts also cultivate into demon beasts. Maybe I can go to the wild mountains outside the city to kill some demon beasts. The first time I hunt a Demon Beast might also be an achievement task?" After murmuring for a while, Su Zhan called up the main attribute panel.
[ [Host: ] Su Zhan ]
[ [Age: ] 16 ]
[ [Cultivation: ] : Mid-stage of Qi Sea Realm ]
[ [Cultivation Technique] : Cold Jade Art (Great Achievement) ]
[ [Martial Arts:] : Cold Sword Technique (Pinnacle), Swift Wind Steps (Pinnacle), Shattered Jade Finger (Pinnacle), Diamond Body Sutra (Pinnacle) ]
Although he is only in the mid-stage of Qi Sea Realm, with three pinnacle level martial arts, even the martial artists in the majority of the Essence Condensation Realm are not as strong as Su Zhan. Combined with his cultivation technique which has also reached the great achievement level, his combat power is already outstanding.
In the wilderness outside Azure City City, he can walk freely!
Just as he was about to leave the Su family, a maid walked up to him and respectfully said, "Young master, the old master has something urgent to tell you!"
Something urgent?
Now that the Su family is the only major family left in Azure City, what else could be urgent? Su Zhan was a little surprised and followed the maid to the room.
Su Tianhai had been waiting inside for a long time.
"Dad, what's the matter you called me for?"
"Zhan'er, do you remember the little sister Zhaoyue that you used to play with when you were young?"
Zhaoyue?
Su Zhan was stunned for a moment, it took him several seconds to remember.
Somewhat puzzled, he asked, "You mean Su Zhaoyue? It's been eight or nine years since I last saw her, I even forgot what she looks like. Dad, why are you suddenly bringing this up?"
Su Tianhai sighed and took out a marriage proposal letter from his pocket and placed it on the table.
Somewhat helpless, he said, "Zhan'er, the Su family in Tang City and our Azure City Su family already had some connections, and I and Su Zhaoyue's father were good friends. We had arranged for a marriage between you two, but Su Zhaoyue's father passed away due to illness, and everyone had forgotten about it. However, yesterday, I received a messenger pigeon from the Tang City Su family saying that Su Zhaoyue has been dormant for three years, but suddenly awakened her talent. Now, since there is too much difference between you two, the engagement should be canceled. The people from the Tang City Su family have already set off yesterday, and it won't be long before they arrive!"
After listening to Su Tianhai's words, Su Zhan's face became strange.
He never expected that the cancellation of the engagement that was supposed to have happened when he was younger would only come now.
But now, he couldn't say that line about "Thirty years east, thirty years west…" that he had always wanted to say.
With his current strength and talent, it wouldn't be suitable to say these things!
