In an era where everyone is cultivating immortality, the system wants me to become a demon?

Chapter 149 Inspector Chen, is it really necessary to be so ruthless?

Upon receiving the news, Chen Xian immediately set off, heading towards the national highway on the outskirts of the city.

However, he did not rush directly to Su Yuan, but instead walked and waited for the latest news from the manager of the online troll shop.

He wanted to make sure all the students except Su Yuan had left before reappearing, so as not to alert them.

The store manager didn't keep him waiting long; he called again just thirty minutes later.

The students in the advanced class have all left.

Chen Xian, who was already lingering near the city outskirts, immediately activated his flying sword and arrived at the location given by the shopkeeper in less than a minute.

It was a small grove of lush vegetation located beside the national highway.

When Chen Xian arrived, she saw Su Yuanzheng alone, staring at the dense traffic on the national highway ahead, seemingly lost in thought.

Out of caution, Chen Xian personally inspected the grove inside and out.

He not only conducted a visual inspection, but also used a spiritual network sensing artifact to survey the surrounding area to ensure that Su Yuan had not installed any alarm devices or live streaming equipment.

After confirming that there was no one else present and no ambush, Chen Xian felt completely relieved.

He chuckled to himself and shook his head, thinking he was being too suspicious.

His plan to deal with Su Yuan was flawless from beginning to end. The latter might not even know him, so how could he have laid an ambush for him in advance?

He sheathed his flying sword, stepped out from behind Su Yuan with an air of nonchalance, and spoke calmly:
"The night is lovely, and the scenery is beautiful. Would Junior Brother Su Yuan be willing to sit down and discuss matters with me?"

Hearing the sound, Su Yuan turned around and looked over, his face showing surprise:

"You...you're Senior Chen Xian?"

"It's so late, why would Senior Chen Xian come to such a remote place? Did he come here specifically to find me?"

Chen Xian's lips curled slightly; it seemed that his reputation as the top scorer in the previous year's college entrance examination was still quite prestigious.

Before he could answer, Su Yuan leaned closer, his face beaming with delight, and said:

"Senior Chen Xian, I'm your fan! Could you please give me your autograph?"

Chen Xian: "..."

Why do I feel inexplicably guilty?

But when he thought of how Chen Nuoyi was always around Su Yuan and how intimate they were, his guilt vanished in an instant.

That feigned gentle expression instantly turned cold and stern.

“Su Yuan, you are indeed a promising talent, but unfortunately you don’t understand your place.”

Chen Xian stood with his hands behind his back, his tone arrogant and indifferent:
"Dare to lay a finger on Chen Nuoyi? You're going against me. Today I'll show you what happens when you mess with me."

As Chen Xian expected, Su Yuan was taken aback upon hearing this, and then retreated quickly with a wary expression.

He also put the Crimson Yuan Sword, which he had always carried on his back, into his hand.

"Don't even think about using the flying sword to escape."

"Although your sword was bestowed by the True Man Taibai, how much of its power can a mere cultivator at the eighth level of Qi Refining possibly unleash?"

"If you dare to run, I can shoot you down in less than a second."

Chen Xian spoke slowly and deliberately, walking towards Su Yuan with an air of pressure as he spoke.

His words seemed to have an effect; Su Yuan temporarily abandoned his intention to escape and asked warily:

"Senior Chen Xian, you were able to find me so accurately, you must have been planning to deal with me for a long time."

"What exactly do you want? Are you trying to injure or cripple me? If so, no matter how well you try to cover it up, you will be brought to justice!"

“We can sit down and talk things over; there’s no need to escalate it to that point.”

Chen Xian chuckled softly:
"Commoners are indeed commoners, even their way of thinking is so barren, all they know is to be brave and fierce." "Don't worry, I'm not here to hurt you. How long can I cripple you and keep you lying down? You'll recover in a few days."

"All I want to do is completely cut off your path forward."

As he spoke, Chen Xian flipped his hand and took out a pen from his storage magic treasure.

A pen with a nib made of several steel needles, coated with paint.

The moment Su Yuan saw the pen, his pupils contracted sharply, and he could hardly believe it. He blurted out:
"A tattoo needle! How could you possess such a vicious weapon!"

"Chen Xian, you wouldn't be... there's no need to go to such extremes!"

Chen Xian sneered, holding a tattoo needle, and slowly walked towards Su Yuan, saying fiercely:

"You only have yourself to blame; you forced me into this mess!"

"Who told you to be so talented? Once you get into the top ten preparatory class, you'll definitely be able to go straight to the top ten, take the postgraduate entrance exam and the civil service exam, and have a bright future! Who will be able to suppress you then?"

"Even the Chen family will forbid me from laying a hand on you!"

"Why not leave an indelible mark on you right now, before you fully mature!"

"For this moment, I went to the black market to buy the magical tattoo needle, and spent a huge amount of money to buy tattoo ink that will never fade."

"If you have a tattoo, not to mention taking the postgraduate entrance exam or the civil service exam, even just the preparatory class assessment will be disliked by the professors, which will greatly increase the probability of failure."

Seeing Su Yuan's shocked gaze, Chen Xian's eyes turned bloodshot, and a strange excitement appeared on his face.

It's unclear whether he was excited by the revenge for stealing his wife or by personally destroying a genius whose talent and opportunities far surpassed his own.

"Ah! Don't come any closer! If you take another step, I'll scream!"

Faced with Chen Xian's relentless pressure, Su Yuan was almost driven to the brink of despair, with one foot already on the national highway, leaving him with nowhere to retreat.

Like a virtuous young woman cornered by thugs, he could only make a final and most feeble struggle.

"Go ahead and yell! The semi-trailer truck is so loud, you can yell until you're hoarse and no one will answer!"

Chen Xian became increasingly excited.

But it was precisely because of this excessive excitement and the cover of night that he did not notice that Su Yuan's flustered expression and tone of voice carried a strong sense of performance.

The next second, Chen Xian shot out like lightning, crossing the final distance between herself and Su Yuan like a gust of wind, and thrust the tattoo needle fiercely at Su Yuan.

Finally, after getting this close to Su Yuan, Chen Xian noticed that, without her noticing, a strange smile had appeared on the corner of Su Yuan's mouth.

"No...something's not right!"

Chen Xian was not stupid. Especially after cultivating the secret techniques of the Heavenly Observation Pavilion, his accuracy in predicting crises far exceeded that of ordinary people.

A heavy sense of crisis weighed on my heart.

But he couldn't quite put his finger on what was wrong.

Is it the 100-ton or 1000-ton king on the national highway?
He was actually wary of these semi-trailer trucks, because he knew that Su Yuan, in the process of training his Undying Sword Body, could already move freely and maneuver on the busy national highway.

Therefore, he was always on guard against Su Yuan escaping onto the national highway.

Even now, he and Su Yuan are still outside the national highway.

If he doesn't walk towards the Hundred-Ton King, does he think the Hundred-Ton King will walk towards him?

Chen Xian felt that this sense of crisis was somewhat absurd.

But in the very next instant, the scene that he thought was impossible actually came true!

Then a 100-ton truck that was driving close to the edge of the national highway suddenly lost control, veered off the highway, and crashed straight into him on the side of the road!

Chen Xian: "???"
