Chapter 53 I Came for Someone!

“Oh my God, when did this woman become so capable?”

The male gambler murmured in shock. He had wanted to walk forward to help; however, the woman went back to where she was in the blink of an eye as if she had never moved. In the male gambler’s eyes, it was so weird and the woman was as fast as a flash.

The female gambler looked back at the male gambler, who was talking nonsense, before looking at Chu Xun with her eyes full of shock.

The scar-faced man looked confused with his hands raised in the air in a funny way.

“Sir, you didn’t come here for money, did you?”

The old man stared at Chu Xun with glittering eyes and asked.

“I came here for someone,” Chu Xun answered simply.

“For someone? Could you please tell us who it is?”

“Him.”

Chu Xun pointed to the scar-faced man.

“Me?” the scar-faced man looked surprised.

Chu Xun stood up slowly and took off his mask.

“It’s you!”

The scar-faced man’s expression changed and he shouted in surprise when he saw Chu Xun’s face.

Chu Xun’s eyes glittered. He had not expected the scar-faced man to recognize him. It seemed to him that he did not come there in vain.

Hong Ling’s expression also changed. Except for Chen Hanlong, she was the only one who had seen Chu Xun’s skills among those who were present.

“Holy crap, there is actually someone who is more handsome than me,” the male gambler muttered with a hint of unwillingness, but no one took his words seriously.

Chu Xun looked at the scar-faced man quietly and thought that he might be able to gain a lot this time.

The scar-faced man also stared at Chu Xun, and his expression changed from shock to clam, and he grinned at last.

“Well, it seems I’m very lucky today since you have presented yourself to me.”

Chu Xun looked at him calmly and mocked, “Very lucky? How do you know that you’re not faced with great calamity?”

“Haha...” the scar-faced man laughed disdainfully and said, “A man with self-knowledge is a great man. It’s true you’re faced with great calamity today.”

“So you want to kill me?” Chu Xun asked in a mocking tone.

“You do have self-knowledge. You’re right; you will die today.”

“Could I know the reason?” Chu Xun asked flatly.

“The reason is, someone wants you to die. You’re supposed to die three years ago, and you should feel grateful that you have lived to now. Go to hell.”

The scar-faced man jumped off the table and charged at Chu Xun at a fast speed.

The male gambler wanted to dive out subconsciously, but was stopped by Chen Hanlong.

“Aren’t you worried about him?” the male gambler asked curiously.

Chen Hanlong laughed out before answering, “No one can hurt His Honor. Let’s just watch here.”

The scar-faced man rushed to Chu Xun, ran his Internal Breath, and threw out a violent fist aiming at Chu Xun’s heart. If the fist fell on Chu Xun’s chest, it would break his heart.

However, Chu Xun stood still and was punched as if he had not seen the fist.

“Bang!”

The onlookers’ heart skipped a beat upon hearing the dull sound.

However, the scar-faced man’s smile froze on his face after his fist landed on Chu Xun’s chest. He looked as if he had seen a ghost and withdrew several steps backward before standing firm. His left arm kept trembling.

The scar-faced man looked at Chu Xun in horror. He could punch through a ten-centimetre thick wooden board with full strength. However, he felt like punching an iron plate when he punched Chu Xun on the chest. If he had not withdrawn his hand in time, his right arm would have been disabled. Even now, he still felt his right arm numb.

Everyone was shocked!

“It seems that you can’t kill me.”

Chu Xun’s flat voice sounded, and the next moment, he disappeared from where he was.

“Boom!”

There was a booming sound in the air.

Following the sound, the onlookers saw that the old man retreated ten meters backward carrying the dumbstruck scar-faced man.

Chu Xun looked at them quietly with one of his hands behind his back.

The scar-faced man looked terrified. If the old man had not helped him timely, he would have been killed.

“You can’t save him,” Chu Xun said flatly, looking at the old man.

“I have to try even if I’ll fail to save him. After all, he is my student more or less.” The old man’s voice was calm, but the muscle all over his body was tense. He looked like he was facing a horrible enemy.

He felt greatly shocked by the simple moves he exchanged with Chu Xun, who was so young yet whose cultivation was unfathomable.

“Well, I’ll give you a chance.”

Chu Xun’s eyes turned chilling.

“Boom!”

As the old man’s aura started to grow stronger, there were hurricanes in the air around him. He pushed the scar-faced man away, and like a tiger coming down a mountain, the old man gave others a terrifying feeling.

Chu Xun’s eyelids lowered a little before he suddenly widened his eyes. There were sharp and terrifying lights in his eyes when he dived out like a flowing light.

“Boom boom boom...”

The old man and Chu Xun were entangled together. Strong winds blew around as their hands and feet collided with each other. Tables and chairs were broken under the impact. Wherever the two of them passed, there was a mess as if a typhoon had struck there.

Chen Hanlong and others had to retreat far away.

“Bang!”

A figure flew backward in the air. It was no other than the old man. When he landed on the floor, he staggered, his hair was scattered, and there was blood at the corner of his mouth.

However, Chu Xun looked calm and at ease with one of his hands behind his back.

“It’s true that heroes rise up from youngsters,” the old man said and coughed.

“I’ve told you that you can’t save him,” Chu Xun replied coldly.

“I have to have a try.” The old man did not talk much and ran his Internal Breath inside his body wildly. He charged at Chu Xun again at a high speed.

“Boom!”

Chu Xun’s clothes fluttered without wind, and a cold light flashed within his eyes. Those who stopped him from looking for his parents would become his enemies.

Among those who Chu Xun had met after his rebirth, the old man had the strongest cultivation. If Chu Xun had met him when he was only at the initial stage of the Qi Refinement realm, he would have had no choice but to run. However, now, the old man posed no threat to Chu Xun.

Chu Xun punched forward, exerting his True Energy.

“Bang!”

Chu Xun’s fist met with the old man’s, causing strong winds in the air. The ear-piercing sounds of breaking bones frightened the onlookers. The old man was sent flying backward and bumped on the wall before falling down softly. There was a mark in the human shape on the wall, from which others could tell how powerful and terrifying Chu Xun’s fist was.

Leaning against the wall, the old man spat out a mouthful of blood. His right arm hung weakly beside his body. He not only got internal injuries but also broke his right arm. Shock filled his heart at the moment. He had thought that Chu Xun was only slightly stronger than him, but now he realized that he was wrong. Besides, he could tell that Chu Xun showed mercy to him in his punch; otherwise, his organs would have been shattered.

In the old man’s eyes, Chu Xun was really a terrifying figure for he had unfathomable power at such a young age.

Seeing that the old man was defeated, the scar-faced man looked as if he had just lost his parents. At the moment, he accidentally saw Chen Hanlong’s complacent face and came up with an evil idea. He suddenly charged at Chen Hanlong trying to catch Chen Hanlong as a hostage to threaten Chu Xun, so as to earn himself a chance to escape.

However, his dream was shattered by reality.

“Whoosh!”

As a sharp whooshing sound echoed in the hall, one chair leg pierced through the scar-faced man’s scapula. The man was pulled backward by the force and was pinned on the wall.

Everyone present felt a chill run down their spines.

The scar-faced man struggled to turn his head aside and spat out a mouthful of blood. He stared at the approaching figure in horror and could feel that he was losing his vigor. The chair leg not only pierced through his scapula but also injured his organs. He knew he could not survive.

“Haha...” the scar-faced man suddenly burst into laughter.

“Is it so funny?” Chu Xun asked flatly.

“Yes, it’s... so funny.” the scar-faced man coughed out a mouthful of blood and steadied his breath before continuing, “I’m laughing at myself for being so stupid. I should have killed you as soon as you were put into prison. I regretted it very much that I gave you a chance to fight back. But I’m also curious about how you made yourself a powerful expert from a poor man during the three years in prison.”

The onlookers were shocked and felt the words unbelievable, wondering what kind of prison could trap such a powerful expert.

“It looks like you know a lot about me.” Chu Xun’s voice was indifferent, and he even did not change his tone.

“Yes, I do know much about you because it was me who put you into prison back then. You were really a poor man at that time, haha...”

The scar-faced man was out of breath as he laughed crazily.

“Why?” Chu Xun asked indifferently.

“Haha...” the scar-faced man looked at Chu Xun with pity and continued, “you have been in prison for three years, yet you don’t know why you were put in. You’re such a poor guy, and you’ll be forever. To tell you the truth, I will never tell you the reason that you want to know.”

“Chu Xun, you’re the bane. You don’t deserve living in this world. You should have died long ago. You brought bad luck with your existence. You not only brought misfortune to yourself but also caused your parents to be missing.”

Chu Xun’s expression changed for the first time. He looked so sad. He clenched his fists, and his fingernails pierced into his palm. Blood flowed between his fingers.

Seeing Chu Xun’s expression, the scar-faced man laughed even more loudly.

“Chu Xun, let me tell you, you can never defeat him. He is the god while you’re just humble dust. You will die in his hands sooner or later. I’ll wait for you in the underworld, haha...”

The scar-faced man’s body went stiff suddenly, and a trace of black blood flowed down from the corner of his mouth.

Chu Xun regained his sense from sadness. He rushed to the scar-faced man like a lightning, infused a gust of True Energy into the man’s body, and placed his palm on the man’s forehead quickly.

“Soul-searching Technique.”

About a minute later, Chu Xun withdrew his hand with a grave face. “What a fierce poison! The moment he touched it, he died.” Chu Xun thought to himself. Even though he tried to sustain the scar-faced man’s life with his True Energy, he only prolonged his life for a short moment. As a result, he only saw a few scenes from the scar-faced man’s mind.

He saw that in a luxurious room, a handsome young man lean leisurely in the arms of a stunning woman, and that there was a mean and evil smile in the man’s narrow eyes. With the scar-faced man’s death, the scenes disappeared, and this was all the information he got.

“Ah...”

Chu Xun could not help but roar angrily toward the sky, and with his roar, the whole underground palace trembled.

“Who is that young man? Is he the man behind all these schemes?”
