The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

Chapter 59: Perfect Control

At this moment, every word spoken by Su Jingzhen was extremely calm and humble. Moreover, the principles contained within his words made it impossible for anyone to refute them. It was precisely this that triggered even stronger killing intent from the Chen family.

Listening to his words, didn’t it make the Chen family seem even more unreasonable?

Before Chen Jinshi could say anything, Su Jingzhen continued, “In the cultivation world, the strong prey on the weak. The Chen family is powerful, and they actually want to forcefully take over the Peach Blossom Alley’s school. I’m also helpless against them.”

As soon as he spoke, the expressions of the people present changed again, filled with surprise.

How did this guy suddenly become so enlightened?

But since he understood these principles, why did he still dare to provoke Chen Jinshi to the death?

The more they thought about Su Jingzhen’s intentions, the more they couldn’t understand him.

Chen Jinshi raised an eyebrow, and a hint of a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

He thought, You’re quite clever.

At this time, Chen Jinshi didn’t think there was anything wrong with Su Jingzhen’s words.

But Su Jingzhen opened his mouth again.

“However, the ‘strong preying on the weak’ I mentioned only applies to the lawless lands. Here is Linjiang City, where the Huayang Sect’s rules can reach. I think, as a fellow who is about to become an inner sect disciple of the Huayang Sect, you shouldn’t be unaware of this, right, Fellow Daoist Chen?”

Su Jingzhen’s gaze shifted to the central table, looking at the two Huayang Sect executives, Zhang Hong and the others, who had not yet spoken.

He, of course, knew that everything he said was just nonsense.

In his past life or this life, he had never seen a place that absolutely followed the rules.

Right and wrong were only determined by who had the bigger fist.

However, at this moment, under the gaze of everyone, neither Chen Jinshi nor Zhang Hong dared to refute his words.

Otherwise, it would be equivalent to slapping their own sect’s face.

Su Jingzhen’s words were only meant to infuriate Chen Jinshi.

Although the other party’s intention to kill him was already apparent, they still had to acknowledge his viewpoint on the surface.

Wasn’t this more unbearable than eating a fly?

At this time, the two Huayang Sect executives, Zhang Hong and the others, were also secretly cursing.

Damn it.

They had originally just wanted to quietly watch the show, leaving everything to the Chen family to handle.

But they never thought they would be dragged out by Su Jingzhen.

At this moment, facing the cultivators of Linjiang City, Zhang Hong naturally couldn’t not respond.

He could only smile and say, “Daoist Su’s words are reasonable. Since you have rented a residence on the territory of our Huayang Sect, we will naturally guarantee your safety and the basic order within the city. Whoever tries to break the rules set by our Huayang Sect will be our sworn enemy!”

Zhang Hong’s words were filled with righteousness and dignity. However, his words had unintentionally given Su Jingzhen a layer of protection.

At least for today, the Chen family wouldn’t dare to touch Su Jingzhen within the Cuiliu School. They would even need to protect him, at least not let him die within the Cuiliu School. Otherwise, the words spoken by Zhang Hong on behalf of the Huayang Sect would become empty talk. Where would the Huayang Sect’s face be then?

Even if Chen Jinshi would likely become an inner sect disciple of the Huayang Sect tomorrow, he absolutely couldn’t afford to take on this matter. The killing intent in his heart had already reached an unbearable degree. Yet, he didn’t dare to express it.

It was so frustrating.

If they wanted to use force, the current Su Jingzhen might not be Chen Jinshi’s opponent. But if they wanted to play with words, using these clever tricks, even ten Chen Jinshis tied together wouldn’t be a match for the two-lifetime Su Jingzhen.

Seeing Chen Jinshi no longer speaking, Su Jingzhen smiled again and said, “Fellow Daoist Chen, don’t you agree with my previous words?”

Good guy, killing with a borrowed knife!

The anger in Chen Jinshi’s eyes was already about to erupt. But he couldn’t help but nod and say, “Daoist Su’s words are extremely reasonable. Anyone who breaks the Huayang Sect’s rules is an enemy of our Huayang Sect! You don’t need to worry about this, Daoist Su.”

Humiliation!

This was absolutely the greatest humiliation Chen Jinshi had faced in a long time!

He had stood up to take control of the situation, to show off in front of Feng Qingya and the others.

He had never thought that the situation would be so easily turned around by Su Jingzhen’s words.

If there were fewer people, or if it weren’t in such a public setting, he would have already struck Su Jingzhen dead.

Now, he had to guarantee Su Jingzhen’s safety before he left Cuiliu Alley.

The frustration was unbearable, and it was impossible to express it to outsiders.

At this time, behind Chen Jinshi, Feng Qingya and Luo Yuebai exchanged another glance. Both of their eyes had a hint of surprise, followed by a hint of a smile.

A person in the early stage of Qi Refining had completely destroyed the situation carefully planned by the Chen family with just words, and made a future foundation-building cultivator eat his own words.

If this got out, it would be a legendary feat that would be talked about for a long time.

Looking back, the Chen family would probably never be able to wash away the shame of today, no matter how high they rose in the future.

At this time, Su Jingzhen was swaying his wine cup.

“I knew Fellow Daoist Chen would share the same view as me. This is a kindred spirit!”

“If you don’t mind, I’d like to have a midnight chat with Fellow Daoist Chen, drinking until dawn.”

Mind?

Extremely mind!

In Chen Jinshi’s eyes, Su Jingzhen was being too provocative.

This was intentionally trying to infuriate him.

At this moment, seeing Su Jingzhen, his heart would burst into flames.

He was afraid that if he stayed here any longer, he wouldn’t be able to resist killing Su Jingzhen.

He had already made up his mind that after he became an inner sect disciple, the first thing he would do was to get rid of Su Jingzhen!

With his identity, he had countless methods to achieve this.

He forced a smile and said, “There’s a big event tomorrow, and I won’t be able to accompany you today!”

This sentence was not only directed at Su Jingzhen but also at everyone present.

After speaking, he cupped his hands in respect to the crowd and headed towards the depths of the Cuiliu School.

He no longer had the face to stay here.

“What a pity.”

Su Jingzhen shook his head and sighed.

He sat down again, pouring himself a drink, still not caring about the strange gazes from the surrounding crowd.

But at this moment, he was still feeling a sense of regret. In the cultivation world, one still needed to use wisdom to solve problems.

This meant that he was still too weak.

If he could slap Chen Jinshi to death with one palm, he might not have needed to set up so many traps for them to fall into.

Like other transmigrators, directly using the most brutal and violent methods to push forward, was the dream he, Su Jingzhen, could only aspire to but not attain.

Moreover, Su Jingzhen’s heart still had a hint of disappointment.

His previous verbal provocations seemed to have been too gentle.

They didn’t even make Chen Jinshi directly erupt in anger and kill him.

If that were the case, the Chen family would have been destroyed today.

Thinking of this, his gaze involuntarily shifted to Shuang Jiang beside him.

“How was it? Was my performance today satisfactory?”

Shuang Jiang looked at him with a calm expression, not responding.

But Su Jingzhen’s eyes flashed with a line of golden text again.
