Chapter 64 - Chapter 64: The Deep Background of the Su Family

Cold sweat dripped from Peng Kai's forehead, and his heart was filled with resentment. He couldn't fight back at all, which was extremely humiliating.

Ning Xingchen also fought with all his might, firmly suppressing the energy on Peng Kai's body. Otherwise, if it had been an ordinary person, they would have been killed by Peng Kai's punch.

"Damn it, I'm going to kill you!" Peng Kai roared, preparing to break free from Ning Xingchen's control.

"Heh, still talking big when you're about to die," Ning Xingchen sneered, but he dared not be careless. After all, Peng Kai was a master, and Ning Xingchen would not underestimate him.

A cold smile flashed at the corner of Peng Kai's mouth as he began to gather powerful energy around him!

Buzz!

Suddenly, there was an explosion. Ning Xingchen frowned and instinctively let go of Peng Kai, dodging to the side.

"Die!" Peng Kai's face twisted with ferocity as he shouted loudly.

At this moment, Peng Kai was in a frenzied state. Ning Xingchen didn't understand what was happening, but Su Zihan knew very well. This was a secret technique of the Xuan Sect, which could instantly increase a person's power by dozens of times!

"Peng Kai, stop!" Seeing this, Su Zihan directly stepped forward, trying to stop Peng Kai.

But Peng Kai was already consumed by battle intent, his rationality clearly overpowered.

Peng Kai struck at Ning Xingchen, creating a shadow in the air. With this blow, Ning Xingchen would definitely not hold up!

Ning Xingchen had no fear whatsoever. He was confident he could withstand Peng Kai's attack, even though Peng Kai's power had surged.

"Peng Kai, if you dare harm a hair on Ning Xingchen's head, I, Su Zihan, will be at odds with you forever!"

Su Zihan's words only further provoked Peng Kai, breaking his heart. The goddess he adored was willing to make an enemy of him for another man. Peng Kai's hatred for Ning Xingchen was now mixed with intense jealousy.

Seeing Peng Kai unwilling to stop, Su Zihan stomped her foot angrily, seriously suspecting that Peng Kai had lost his mind to go against Ning Xingchen.

As Peng Kai was about to hit Ning Xingchen, a sinister smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He had already envisioned Ning Xingchen being horribly maimed and crippled.

At the critical moment, a bedroom door suddenly opened, and a gentle breeze seemed to form an impenetrable wall, blocking Peng Kai and easily dissipating his violent energy.

Peng Kai then fell to the ground like a deflated balloon, his face as pale as paper, spitting blood, his body trembling, his arms numb, and large beads of sweat constantly dripping down.

It appeared that just a gentle breeze had severely injured Peng Kai!

"Grandpa!" Su Zihan's heart was filled with joy and relief. Fortunately, her grandfather intervened in time, or else Ning Xingchen would have been hurt.

"What are you doing? Don't you know I'm entertaining guests?"

At this moment, an elderly man in a white Tai Chi practice suit stepped out of the room, accompanied by a middle-aged man exuding authority, clearly a long-time ruler!

"Master, I've learned a lot from you. I'll visit another day!" The middle-aged man, discerning that the Su family had family matters to attend to, quickly took his leave.

The elder nodded, his expression stern, clearly displeased with the fighting.

As the middle-aged man passed by Ning Xingchen, Ning Xingchen glanced at him, vaguely recognizing him, as if he'd seen him in the news or newspapers.

The middle-aged man also smiled kindly at Ning Xingchen, exuding an aura of authority and approachability.

Mayor Zhao?

Ning Xingchen thought for a moment and finally recognized who the middle-aged man was. No wonder he looked so familiar—it was the mayor of Donghai City.

This made Ning Xingchen even more curious about the Su family's background!

...

"Peng Kai, what's the matter with you? Don't you know we were talking?" The elder's voice was cold, his tone gentle yet thunderous, like Mount Tai pressing down, making it hard to breathe.

"I deserve to die!" Peng Kai was utterly terrified. It had been a long time since he had seen the elder angry, and this scared Peng Kai so much that he crawled to the elder's feet, kneeling and kowtowing repeatedly.

Others might not know the elder's identity, but Peng Kai knew very well. A casual word from the elder could shake the entire country!

The elder's hair was already gray, but he was in excellent health. Although in his seventies, he was still vigorous, walking with the gait of a dragon and a tiger, his spirit undiminished from his days of pointing the way!

"Go to Yanzi Mountain to reflect. Don't come back for half a year!" The elder coldly commanded, waving his hand to indicate Peng Kai should leave.

"Thank you, Master, for sparing my life!" Peng Kai's voice was hoarse, his tone extremely respectful.

"Who are you?" After dealing with Peng Kai, the elder turned his gaze to Ning Xingchen, his piercing look like a sharp sword, penetrating deep into Ning Xingchen's soul.

"Grandpa, he's my friend, Ning Xingchen, and the parent of one of my students." As she spoke, Su Zihan pulled Qin Bao'er over.

"I didn't ask you. Can't he speak for himself? Let him speak!" The elder looked displeased, always strict with his granddaughter.

"Grandpa Su, who I am isn't important. The point is, I mean you no harm. You can be assured of that." Ning Xingchen smiled calmly, remaining unflustered and composed in front of Elder Su.

Ning Xingchen's calm and carefree demeanor made the elder frown. He inexplicably felt that this young man was extraordinary, exuding an air of mystery and inscrutability.

"I don't care who you are. Don't cause trouble here. I'm old and don't like noise. I need to sleep now!" After sizing up Ning Xingchen, the elder turned and returned to his room, closing the door with a bang.

"Xingchen, my grandpa has a strange temper, don't mind him!" Su Zihan whispered.

"It's okay. I should be the one apologizing for disturbing your grandfather's rest." Ning Xingchen always felt that Elder Su was not simple. His natural aura of nobility and authority commanded respect.

"Let's go back to studying English!" Su Zihan took Qin Bao'er's hand.

Qin Bao'er muttered, "Next time, let's study at home. Don't come here. It's so scary."

Children's feelings are the most direct. The atmosphere here was oppressive, making one feel uneasy and apprehensive.

Ning Xingchen glanced thoughtfully at the door of Elder Su's bedroom, sighing inwardly, "Perhaps this is a true master!"

Seriously injured, Peng Kai left dejectedly, but he vowed secretly that when he returned in half a year, he would find an opportunity to kill Ning Xingchen. The thought of Ning Xingchen being affectionate with Su Zihan made him furious, wanting to tear Ning Xingchen apart.
