Su Chen bade farewell to Chrysanthemum Douluo and headed toward Heaven Dou City.
This time, the God of Destruction did not make him search for any Treasure Trove along the way, so there was no need to take any detours.
Su Chen rode on horseback, galloping along the main road.
After they had put some distance between themselves and the Star Dou Great Forest, the God of Destruction reminded him:
“That Titled Douluo is still following you.”
“Following me?”
Su Chen was slightly puzzled.
Could it be that Chrysanthemum Douluo was still unwilling to give up and wanted to forcibly take him back to Spirit Hall?
That shouldn’t be the case, right?
With Chrysanthemum Douluo’s strength, there was no need to do that.
If he wanted to take him away by force, he could have done so earlier; there was no need to pretend to be cordial with him.
“This person likely has no ill intentions; it seems like he is preparing to protect you for a while.”
“Protect me?”
Although Chrysanthemum Douluo was a decent person, wasn’t this a bit too decent?
He had refused to become his disciple, yet not only did he not seek revenge, but he was actually escorting him in secret.
What a peerless, good-hearted person.
“Perhaps it has to do with your blessing from the Goddess of Life.
This person’s Spirit is a unique type of plant; perhaps it has a natural affinity for you.”
The God of Destruction had also found it strange at first, but once he saw the situation of Chrysanthemum Douluo’s Spirit, he had basically guessed the reason.
“So that’s how it is.”
He hadn’t expected the blessing of the Goddess of Life to have such a side effect.
However, this also showed that Chrysanthemum Douluo was a decent person to begin with.
If he were an evil person at heart and developed an affinity for a strange child, who knows what he might have done, especially after being rejected.
The God of Destruction felt a bit moved.
He was still planning to arrange guards for Su Chen, yet the boy had managed to pick up a Titled Douluo to protect him on the road.
Although, at the root of it, it was still thanks to the blessing from the Goddess of Life that he had given Su Chen.
But in the eyes of the God of Destruction, even with that prerequisite, the fact that he could encounter Chrysanthemum Douluo—and that Chrysanthemum Douluo was a decent person—was proof of Su Chen’s luck.
Good luck is the best kind of luck; this was the conclusion the God of Destruction had reached after summarizing his past lives.
As the saying goes, wisdom cannot defeat Divine Ability, and Divine Ability cannot defeat Destiny.
The success or failure of many things actually depends on the final Destiny.
In Su Chen, the God of Destruction felt the traces of being favored by Destiny.
After discovering Su Chen, the God of Destruction felt that his own luck had improved significantly.
Whether it was establishing a better relationship with the God of Evil and the Goddess of Kindness than before, or making the Asura God suffer a setback, these were things he had previously found difficult to achieve.
Both Su Chen and the God of Destruction felt that knowing each other was their good fortune.
As for Chrysanthemum Douluo, who was secretly following Su Chen, it was a pity.
Although Su Chen was riding a horse and Chrysanthemum Douluo was relying entirely on himself, with his cultivation, he could easily keep up.
By evening, two disheveled figures appeared on the road ahead of Su Chen.
Chrysanthemum Douluo thought to himself that it was a good thing he had followed.
Looking from afar, he could sense that those two were not only Spirit Masters, but also carried Evil Qi; they did not look like good people.
Judging by their appearance, it looked like they had been hunted for a long time.
Chrysanthemum Douluo was an experienced veteran of the Spirit Master World; he felt there was a high probability that these two would make a move against Su Chen.
Sure enough, when they discovered Su Chen approaching, and that he was a child alone, their eyes filled with fierce glares.
Just as Su Chen was about to pass by them, one of them turned his hands into sharp claws covered in long fur and swiped fiercely at Su Chen on the horse’s back.
On his body, one white and one yellow spirit ring appeared.
Even though they were dealing with a child who looked very young, they still launched a shameful sneak attack.
However, he was still somewhat careless; he only launched a sneak attack without using a Spirit Ability.
This person thought he could easily knock Su Chen off the horse, and Chrysanthemum Douluo had already revealed his figure, preparing to make a move to save Su Chen.
Although Chrysanthemum Douluo had not forced Su Chen to take him as his master, if he could save Su Chen, perhaps Su Chen would be grateful, and the matter would be settled?
Others have heroes saving beauties; him, a famous master saving a talented disciple, could also be considered a fine tale.
Just as Chrysanthemum Douluo was about to make a move, he discovered that Su Chen had disappeared from the horse’s back.
To be precise, Su Chen had performed a “hiding in the stirrups” maneuver, hiding on the other side of the horse.
At the same time, Su Chen’s long spear struck like a Dragon, thrusting directly at the man’s throat from beneath the horse’s belly.
The man had been stunned by Su Chen’s sudden disappearance, and the angle of Su Chen’s attack happened to be beneath the horse’s belly, in his visual blind spot.
He heard his companion’s exclamation in his ears, and when he instinctively wanted to retreat, his body suddenly stiffened, as if he had been frozen in extreme ice and snow for a long time, his joints becoming somewhat rigid.
In that very short moment, the tip of Su Chen’s spear had already reached his throat.
Smooth at the entrance, a line across the throat.
The tip of the Life Destruction Spear was like a gentle bird, lightly pecking at his throat with its beak.
But with such a gentle thrust, the man instantly lost all his strength and collapsed limply, not even letting out a scream.
“Second Brother.”
The other man shouted in grief and indignation.
The two brothers had been hunted for more than ten days and hadn’t died, yet they had actually fallen at the hands of a passing child.
“I’m going to kill you.”
This person’s Spirit was exactly the same as his brother’s, also some kind of Beast Spirit.
However, his spirit ring configuration was better; both his First spirit ring and Second Spirit Ring were yellow, hundred-year spirit rings.
With his brother’s lesson before him, he dared not underestimate Su Chen because of his age and directly used his First Spirit Ability.
His claws extended sharp nails about half a meter long, carrying a dark cyan light, looking instead like some kind of metal.
Chrysanthemum Douluo did not rush to make a move this time.
Su Chen had just cleanly and neatly killed a two-ring Spirit Grandmaster; although it could be considered a prepared attack against an unprepared one, it was enough to prove his strength.
Moreover, being able to anticipate that the man would sneak attack him was in itself a reflection of keen perception and rich experience.
Chrysanthemum Douluo thought about how Su Chen had said he had no family, and he couldn’t help but feel a little puzzled.
Although Su Chen’s spear thrust just now was very simple and direct, without using any profound spear techniques.
But it was precisely this simplicity that allowed Chrysanthemum Douluo to feel a solid Foundation and traces of brilliant teaching.
This kind of spear technique definitely wasn’t something he could have figured out on his own; even a Genius wouldn’t be this outrageous.
Especially when seeing that bright yellow spirit ring on Su Chen’s Life Destruction Spear.
Chrysanthemum Douluo felt it seemed slightly brighter than an ordinary hundred-year spirit ring, but it was definitely a hundred-year spirit ring, no doubt about it.
Linking this to Su Chen’s previous appearance near the Star Dou Great Forest, he even suspected whether Su Chen had gone to hunt a Spirit Beast alone.
While Chrysanthemum Douluo was pondering the peculiarities of Su Chen, the confrontation between Su Chen and the other person had already begun.
After killing the first person, Su Chen had already leaped off the horse.
This horse had been with him for several months; it would be bad if it got hurt.
In the past few months, he had also fought against Spirit Masters, but he had not yet encountered a Spirit Grandmaster.
Having just obtained his First spirit ring, Su Chen also wanted to test the extent of his strength.
The Life Destruction Spear parried and deflected, neutralizing the incoming claws.
“This seems a bit easy.”
