Chapter Twelve: The Protagonist's Characteristics
Indeed, he has already placed himself on the opposite side of the protagonist. In every sense, Su Yang can be considered a villain.
Who are you?!
Su Chen also realized that it wasn't Xu Wan who wanted to kill him, and he glared angrily at Su Yang.
Disdainful of answering the question, Su Yang merely glanced at the extremely illusory body of the cauldron behind Su Chen and at his current cultivation level, and he already knew what was going on.
The hanging stone has finally fallen.
He sighed inwardly, thankful that he hadn't read too many online novels over the years, otherwise he would have really been intimidated by Su Chen's show of force just now.
It is true that Su Chen was startled and fled when he awakened.
But halfway there, he realized something was wrong with the taste!
After all, as a protagonist who is a "trash-to-hero" type and starts with a broken artifact, how could his cultivation level suddenly skyrocket?
Anyone's cultivation level can rise from the ground up, but it's never the case for protagonists like this!
No matter how many special effects are flying around, or how powerful a physique or bloodline has been awakened, or even how powerful a certain spiritual object has been consumed, it seems incredibly awesome, and the boasts are incredibly impressive.
But if it ultimately benefits the protagonist, and their cultivation level can be raised by two minor realms as a result, they will definitely be extremely grateful!
This is the ultimate conclusion he has drawn from countless days and nights of experience!
Just like Su Chen at this moment, his cultivation level has only barely increased by one level!
Whether he was at the third or fourth level of Body Tempering made no difference to Su Yang.
"I am a disciple of the Falling Clouds Sword Sect, and my master is Xia Lian, the sect leader of the Falling Clouds Sword Sect. If you retreat now, I will assume nothing will happen. Otherwise, you will have nowhere to hide in the Great Xia Dynasty!"
Su Yang returned, his intentions clearly hostile. Xu Wan, knowing she was in a bad state, tried to scare him away by mentioning the reputation of the Luoxia Sword Sect.
Su Yang pursed his lips and chuckled to himself.
"Don't try to intimidate me with the Falling Clouds Sword Sect. The fact that I've stepped forward shows that I'm not afraid at all."
Although Su Yang spoke in a very pretentious manner.
But at this moment, the Taixu Cauldron was extremely weak, and Xu Wan was severely injured.
That was the most likely time to kill Su Chen, so naturally he wouldn't retreat because of the Falling Cloud Sword Sect.
"You don't need to say anything more to this fatherless bastard. Since he wants my life, Su Chen's life, then let him take it! I also want to see where he gets his confidence from!"
Having been ambushed by this person time and again, and even told that his fate was beyond his control, he was already furious. On top of that, Su Yang was so arrogant, which naturally made him even angrier.
With a single step, Su Chen shielded Xu Wan behind him, revealing his fourth-level Body Tempering cultivation.
Su Yang wasn't angry when his cousin scolded him. Su Chen was telling the truth; he was indeed an orphan.
Moreover, he was the one who made the first move. He wasn't so twisted in his values that he thought Su Chen should just stick out his neck and let him chop him up.
For a moment, the atmosphere between the two sides became extremely tense.
But just as both sides were about to make a move, Su Yang suddenly lost his composure again, and then said with a smile, "I suddenly remembered that I have something to do at home. How about we just forget about it today and pretend I was never here!"
It's unclear what's gotten into Su Yang this time.
But Su Chen and Xu Wan looked at each other in confusion as they watched Su Yang slowly retreat and finally disappear.
"This person is probably mentally ill. Should we pursue him?" Su Chen asked Xu Wan in a low voice.
"I have only one-tenth of my true energy left, and my injuries are quite severe. Although I don't know what tricks he's up to, it's best not to fight if possible."
"Alright, let's wait and see."
As the saying goes, "A lesson learned is a lesson," and even though the masked man suddenly said he wouldn't fight anymore, Su Chen learned his lesson and didn't believe him easily.
As time went by, Su Yang still hadn't appeared, and Su Chen and Xu Wan couldn't help but believe that he had really left.
They glanced at the sun, which was gradually setting in the sky, and their expressions were complicated.
"Why don't we leave too? Staying here on guard isn't a solution."
Xu Wan's injuries were too severe, and she was constantly on guard, worried that Su Yang might return. She was finding it hard to cope.
He pondered for a moment.
A glance at the dark blue dress she was wearing, now stained with blood, revealed that Xu Wan's condition was truly dire.
Just as Su Chen was about to nod...
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh...!
An indistinguishable number of stones came hurtling from behind the two.
Su Chen and Xu Wan's expressions changed, realizing with a start that the person hadn't actually left and had remained hidden all along.
"Your mom! You attacked me again!"
The Taixu Cauldron instantly appeared within his body, protecting him and Xu Wan while blocking all the incoming stones. Su Chen roared angrily!
He had never seen such a despicable person before. He pretended to be weak and disappear time and time again, but every time he let his guard down, he would jump out and ambush him!
This time, however, Su Yang did not stop arguing with Su Chen.
With a load of stones on his back, he moved swiftly and weaving through the valley.
The figure darted around the two while hurling stones behind him with all his might.
Stones carrying immense power attacked Su Chen and Xu Wan from all directions, but they were all blocked by the Taixu Cauldron.
However, Su Yang's actions were not in vain.
Under the relentless onslaught, the already extremely illusory walls of the Taixu Cauldron became even more indistinct.
Su Chen understood that he couldn't continue playing defensively like this.
But Su Yang refused to get close to him, and the Taixu Cauldron had to protect him, the host at the fourth level of Body Tempering, so it couldn't take the initiative to attack.
As soon as he moved closer to Su Yang, Su Yang would retreat at the same time.
The distance between the two remained constant, a situation where Su Yang could attack him, but he was unable to do anything to Su Yang.
