Chapter 165: Tang Chen's Fluttering Heart
The sun was setting.
The clouds on the horizon looked as if they had been scorched through by fire.
A cool evening breeze gently swept through the city streets and alleys.
In the market, vendors began packing up their goods unhurriedly, while children chased and played at the alley entrance, their laughter echoing far into the distance.
Everything seemed so peaceful and tranquil.
However, above this peaceful city, a figure appeared as quietly as a Gui Mei.
The person who arrived was Tang Chen.
He hovered high in the air, his body surrounded by a faint fluctuation of Spiritual Power, as if an invisible barrier wrapped around him.
None of the people below noticed his presence.
At this moment, Tang Chen's Spiritual Power spread out like a tide.
With his cultivation at the Peak of level 99, his powerful Spiritual Power enveloped the entire city in almost an instant.
Meanwhile, in a private room of a luxurious restaurant facing the street in the city center, Su Mo and the two others were sitting at a table by the window.
The table was filled with various delicacies, and the three of them were eating, drinking, chatting, and laughing in a relaxed and harmonious atmosphere.
Suddenly, Bo Saixi's smile stiffened slightly.
She frowned slightly and whispered, "Su Mo, a very strong Spiritual Power just swept past."
"I know." Su Mo's expression remained calm.
He had already sensed Tang Chen's presence.
However, he could not help but feel puzzled.
Why would Tang Chen appear here?
Was he just passing by?
It didn't seem like it, because he was clearly searching for something.
Could it be... that he was here to find him?
But what for?
Could it be that the matter regarding Tang Hao had been exposed?
Logically, that shouldn't be the case.
Or was it for something else?
Several thoughts flashed through Su Mo's mind, but he quickly reined them in.
There was no need to rack his brain over things he couldn't figure out.
We'll cross that bridge when we come to it.
Just at this moment, a Spiritual Power transmission sounded in his mind: "Su Mo, come out. I have something to discuss with you."
Su Mo narrowed his eyes; he hadn't expected that he really was here to find him.
"What's wrong?" Bibi Dong noticed the oddity in Su Mo's expression and asked curiously.
"Tang Chen just used Spiritual Power transmission to ask me to go out for a moment."
"What does he want with you?"
"I don't know." Su Mo shook his head.
"Who is Tang Chen?" Bo Saixi asked curiously.
"He is the old Sect Master of the Clear Sky Sect, the number one sect in the world." Su Mo said, standing up and unhurriedly adjusting his robes.
"I will go meet him to see what he wants. You two stay here and wait for me to return."
The two women nodded in unison.
Su Mo's figure disappeared from where he stood.
The next instant, he appeared high in the sky, about a hundred meters away from Tang Chen.
His robes fluttered, and his expression was calm and composed.
"Senior Tang Chen." Su Mo spoke indifferently, "I wonder why you are looking for this Junior?"
Tang Chen's gaze locked onto Su Mo, and the killing intent in his eyes almost materialized.
He snorted coldly: "I am asking you, several years ago, in Slaughter City, you killed my Hao-er, is that true or not?"
Upon hearing this, Su Mo's gaze flickered slightly.
It was indeed about that matter regarding Tang Hao.
"Strictly speaking, I did not kill him." Su Mo said calmly.
Tang Chen frowned fiercely: "What do you mean by that?"
"I only crippled him; I did not kill him directly." Su Mo's tone remained flat, "He must have died at the hands of the fallen one. You know what kind of place Slaughter City is; there is no need for me to explain what happens when a crippled person falls into the hands of those madmen."
Tang Chen's pupils shrank suddenly, and then, a monstrous rage erupted.
In a place like Slaughter City, what was the difference between crippling Tang Hao and killing him directly?
"Very well!" Tang Chen's rage grew even more intense, "Since that is the case, today I will use your life to pay tribute to my grandson!"
Before the words had even faded, the Aura around his body crashed down like a mountain.
"There are countless innocent commoners in the city. If you want to fight, follow me."
After saying this, Su Mo turned his body and flew toward the outside of the city.
With their level of cultivation, if a battle were to erupt above the city, the aftermath alone would be enough to raze the buildings below to the ground, and those innocent commoners would be reduced to dust in an instant.
Although Su Mo was not some compassionate Saint, he could not bring himself to destroy a city for no reason.
Tang Chen snorted coldly and quickly followed.
Just as they left, Bo Saixi stood up in the restaurant below.
"Sister Dong'er, it seems they are about to fight." A hint of worry appeared in Bo Saixi's beautiful eyes.
"What!" Bibi Dong exclaimed, "Sister Xi Xi, hurry and go help him! Tang Chen is a super Douluo at the Peak of level 99."
Although she knew Su Mo was powerful, how could she not worry when facing such an old-school powerhouse?
Bo Saixi nodded slightly: "Then you wait here."
"Okay." Bibi Dong nodded vigorously, "You must be careful."
She did not suggest going together.
She had a clear understanding of her own strength.
She was only at the Soul Douluo cultivation level; in a battle of this level, she would not only be unable to help but might even become a burden.
Rather than causing trouble, it was better to wait here peacefully.
Bo Saixi's figure quietly disappeared from the private room.
Not long after, a hundred miles away, above a mountain range.
Here, the Peaks were layered and the terrain was steep, with no signs of human life for dozens of miles—it was the perfect place to fight without restraint.
Tang Chen and Su Mo stood opposite each other, two powerful Auras colliding suddenly.
Just as both sides were about to make a move, they both looked in the same direction at the same time.
There, a blue stream of light was piercing through the air at an astonishing speed, fast as a shooting star, cutting across the twilight sky and leaving a brilliant blue trail.
The blue light stopped abruptly beside Su Mo, revealing a slender figure—it was Bo Saixi.
Tang Chen's face, originally full of rage, suddenly froze the moment he saw Bo Saixi.
Since his wife died, he had never felt anything for any woman.
But at this moment, his heart, which had been silent for decades, suddenly began to beat rapidly.
And when Bo Saixi saw Tang Chen staring at her, her beautiful eyes instantly turned cold.
"Senior Tang Chen." Su Mo's lips curled slightly, "Isn't it a bit impolite to stare at this Junior's wife like that?"
As he spoke, he reached out his arm and wrapped it around Bo Saixi's slender waist.
To be honest, Su Mo was a bit surprised.
He did not expect that even in this life-or-death situation, Tang Chen would still be attracted to Bo Saixi.
Feeling the warm and strong arm around her waist, Bo Saixi turned her head to look at Su Mo and leaned into his embrace.
Her originally cold eyes instantly softened, and a gentle smile appeared at the corners of her mouth, like ice and snow melting.
And this scene of intimacy between Su Mo and her, when seen by Tang Chen, was like a red-hot branding iron pressed hard against his heart.
He had finally encountered a woman who made his heart beat again, yet she was already Su Mo's woman.
Moreover, they were actually being intimate right in front of him.
This was simply bullying too much!
Tang Chen's eyes instantly turned red, and he breathed like an ox.
