NIP Chapter 39 Backlash? The Flame Emperor Has Arrived!
Chapter 39 Backlash? The Flame Emperor Has Arrived!
Faced with Wu Jingyao's provocative and dangerous question, Su Chen's smile remained unchanged.
They seemed completely oblivious to the almost tangible, chilling killing intent in the air.
"cost?"
He gave it a symbolic moment of serious thought, then nodded.
"Of course I know."
"Power, status, and a stage where you can fully display your talents without worrying about being seen as an outsider."
"These dragon kingdoms can all be given to you."
"And it's something that no other power in the world can provide."
Su Chen's voice was calm and confident.
He did not avoid Wu Jingyao's gaze, but stared directly into her alluring eyes that seemed to be able to bewitch one's soul.
"Oh?"
Wu Jingyao seemed slightly surprised by Su Chen's answer.
She sat up slightly and looked at Su Chen with great interest.
This young man in front of me seems rather interesting.
Unlike the men she had met before, who were either terrified or blinded by lust and made a fool of themselves upon seeing her.
How could he be so calm as to negotiate with me?
"Little brother, you've got quite the nerve."
Wu Jingyao chuckled and suddenly disappeared from the blood-red throne.
The next second, she appeared in front of Su Chen like a ghost, the distance between them less than half a meter.
A peculiar scent, a mixture of the fragrance of a virgin and the strong smell of blood, wafted towards us.
She extended a cool finger and gently lifted Su Chen's chin, her breath sweet as orchids as she spoke:
"Then tell me, what kind of position does the Dragon Kingdom plan to give me? Surely it's not going to be your henchman, is it?"
"That would be too unfair to me."
"Whoosh!"
Before Su Chen could answer, Qin Bing behind him had already moved!
She absolutely could not tolerate anyone threatening her chief advisor with such a flippant attitude!
A sharp blade of light, carrying a chilling aura, instantly slashed towards Wu Jingyao's restless hand!
However, Wu Jingyao reacted even faster.
She didn't even turn around, she just chuckled softly.
A blood-red barrier appeared out of thin air, easily blocking Qin Bing's seemingly inevitable strike.
"Oh dear, your little female bodyguard has quite a temper."
Wu Jingyao glanced at Qin Bing, whose face was icy cold, a hint of mockery flashing in her eyes.
"stop."
Su Chen spoke calmly, stopping Qin Bing from continuing her attack.
He gently brushed Wu Jingyao's fingers aside, took a step back, and increased the distance between them.
"Beautiful lady, I have come here with sincerity."
"I hope we can have a conversation on a relatively equal and mutually respectful basis."
Su Chen's expression remained calm, but his tone carried an undeniable air of authority.
He wasn't there to flirt with her...
Wu Jingyao stared blankly at Su Chen's face, which had suddenly turned serious, for a moment, then laughed even more happily.
"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore."
He waved his hand, returned to his throne, and resumed his languid posture.
"I've heard your terms. Now, it's your turn to hear mine."
"However, before we discuss terms..."
Wu Jingyao's eyes suddenly sharpened!
"I need to see first what kind of person you are, this so-called 'representative'!"
Before the words were even finished!
A blood-red arrow, more than ten times sharper than Qin Bing's attack earlier, shot out from her fingertips without warning!
The target was aimed directly at Su Chen's brow!
This strike was as fast as lightning!
Moreover, it is filled with eerie energy, as if it can directly penetrate a person's soul!
"consultant!"
Qin Bing exclaimed in surprise, wanting to intervene again, but it was too late!
The alluring woman before her was far more terrifyingly powerful than she had imagined.
Su Chen stood still, motionless.
He didn't even blink.
Just a moment before the blood-red arrow struck his brow.
"Buzz—"
A translucent hexagonal shield made of pure, extremely cold air appeared out of thin air in front of him.
"clang!"
A crisp sound, like metal clashing!
The crimson arrow, powerful enough to instantly kill any A-level ability user, struck the shield without even causing a ripple, shattering into a cloud of blood mist.
The power of mystic ice!
This was the first time Su Chen had revealed his combat abilities in front of anyone other than Qin Bing!
The entire altar was deathly silent.
The Dragon Fang Guards behind him were all so shocked that their mouths were agape.
What...what did they see?
Their chief advisor, the civilian employee who has always presented himself as the "brain," is actually an S-class combat ability user.
Moreover, judging from the purity and power of that chilling aura, it seems to be even more domineering than Captain Qin Bing's "Ice Phoenix" power!
Wu Jingyao's smile froze completely.
For the first time, her alluring eyes revealed a genuine look of shock.
She stared intently at the slowly dissipating ice shield in front of Su Chen, feeling the cold, pure power within her, and her heart was filled with turmoil.
S-rank!
Another S-class!
Moreover, it's the most powerful ice-type ability!
This seemingly harmless young man was actually hiding something so well?
"Now, am I in a position to negotiate with you?"
Su Chen looked at Wu Jingyao, who was in shock, and spoke calmly.
Wu Jingyao took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the shock in her heart, and re-examined the man in front of her.
She realized that she might have really underestimated him.
They also underestimated the profound heritage of the Dragon Kingdom that he represented.
"Good...very good!"
Wu Jingyao spoke slowly, her heart truly agreeing at this moment.
His voice had lost some of its frivolity and gained more seriousness.
"Your abilities have earned my recognition."
"Tell me, besides power and status, what else can you give me?"
"I can also give you a... promise." Su Chen's tone suddenly became somewhat meaningful.
"A promise that will ensure you won't one day in the future suffer the fate of being betrayed by everyone, ultimately being devoured by bloodshed, and dying a miserable death because you trusted the wrong person."
boom!
These words struck Wu Jingyao's mind like a thunderbolt from the heavens!
Her face turned deathly pale in an instant!
His whole body trembled violently from extreme shock and fear!
Bloodbath backlash!
This is the greatest secret of the evil art she practiced, and also her deepest fear!
There is absolutely no one else in the world who could know about this except for her!
he……
How did he know that?
"Who...who are you?"
Wu Jingyao pointed at Su Chen, her voice trembling.
"My name is Su Chen."
Su Chen looked at her and said, word by word.
"A person who can see the future."
Wu Jingyao was completely stunned.
Looking into Su Chen's deep, all-seeing eyes, she understood.
She finally understood why this man dared to come to her territory and negotiate with her.
It turns out that he held his biggest weakness and most fatal vulnerability!
for a long time
Wu Jingyao smiled coldly, withdrawing all her imposing aura.
"Okay, I promise."
She looked at Su Chen with a complicated expression and said:
"I'm willing to join the Dragon Kingdom. However, I have one condition..."
Just as she was about to state her conditions.
suddenly!
In the distance, a golden flame, like a shooting star, suddenly appeared in the sky.
It is approaching the island at an extremely terrifying speed!
Su Chen's eyes flickered slightly, a glint in them.
That familiar, domineering aura...
It's Xiao Fan!
He found us so quickly!
