"Xiao Chen, did you see that? This is the gap between me and Selro."
Marcus's somewhat harsh voice sounded.
"When he was a kid, he was not as good as me. When he grew up... he is still not as good as me!"
Hearing what Marcus said, Selro glared at him, very angry.
“Mmm…”
Selro had something stuffed in his mouth and was making these noises while struggling, but he was held down by the people around him.
He hates!
He hated Marcus, and he hated John even more.
Ever since Xiao Chen reminded him, he had been paying attention to the people around him, and he indeed found the two people.
But no matter what, he never expected that John would betray him.
You know, John is one of the people he trusts the most!
Being betrayed by the person you trust the most, this feeling... besides anger, it's hatred.
In order to avoid attracting attention, he did not bring many people with him when he came to China this time. He even set up a smokescreen and sent a group of his men to other countries.
The funny thing is...he deceived a lot of people, but was betrayed by John.
And his whereabouts were also known by Marcus.
When he came to China, he was ambushed by Marcus who had arrived here earlier.
Since they only brought a few people, how could they possibly be a match for Marcus who was well prepared?
He lost.
The black-robed Grim Reaper was seriously injured and dying in order to protect him.
Several people around him wanted to protect him and escape, but some died and some were injured.
But he failed to escape and was caught.
What made him even more angry was that John proposed a plan to trick Xiao Chen here, and then... this scene happened.
He was worried about Xiao Chen, but at the same time he was looking forward to it.
Although the people brought by Marcus are very strong, Xiao Chen...can he save himself?
If the Great Elder really died at the hands of Xiao Chen, then it is possible.
But if he hadn't killed him alone, it would have been dangerous if Xiao Chen came.
When John left, Marcus did not move him but placed him in the upstairs room.
Marcus told him that he wanted him to listen to the conversation between him and Xiao Chen with his own ears, and listen to Xiao Chen make another choice that would make him... fail miserably!
So, he heard the entire process through the electronic device, but because it was one-way, he was unable to remind Xiao Chen at all.
And then... this scene happened.
"Stop humming, Selro. I really didn't expect that you would be caught."
Xiao Chen looked at the angry Selro and said with a smile.
"To be honest, I am... a little disappointed."
“…”
After listening to Xiao Chen's words, Selro, who was originally extremely angry, trembled and a look of dejection appeared on his face.
Yeah, disappointed.
Not to mention Xiao Chen, even he himself was a little disappointed with himself.
How could I be so careless and let myself end up in such a desperate situation?
"Xiao Chen, I can give you another chance to choose."
Marcus looked at Xiao Chen and said slowly.
"As long as you hand over the Black Blood Wand and be my friend... everything I said before will count."
"Count? What do you count?"
Xiao Chen glanced at Marcus and said something in Chinese.
Marcus didn't understand and looked at the people around him, as if wanting them to translate.
But John and the others... for a moment, they didn't know how to translate this sentence.
What the hell is that?
They can understand what it means, but they can't translate it.
"Selro, now that I'm here, everything will be fine."
Xiao Chen didn't look at Marcus again, but looked at Selro.
"It's nothing, actually. Who would have thought... that the dog you raised, a loyal dog, would suddenly bite you, right?"
Selro looked at Xiao Chen, his eyes turned red again. He already knew the choice Xiao Chen had made.
“Mmm…”
Selro seemed to want to say something.
At this time, Marcus also understood what Xiao Chen meant... He didn't understand the details, but the people around him told him that it was not a good thing.
It’s not a good word, but this translation… is enough.
"Xiao Chen, do you really want to be my enemy?"
Marcus looked at Xiao Chen coldly and asked.
If he wasn't somewhat afraid of Xiao Chen, he would have taken action long ago and there would be no way he would have said so much nonsense.
Besides... he also wants to strike back at Selro. He wants to let Selro know that he is far inferior to him!
"Be your enemy? Haha, do you have the qualifications?"
Xiao Chen looked at Marcus. This time he didn't speak Chinese, but English.
Marcus' face darkened when he heard Xiao Chen's words. Not qualified?
As soon as he raised his hand, everyone around him burst into powerful aura.
"Um?"
Suddenly, Xiao Chen looked intently at the people around Selro with a look of surprise.
Another half-step to innateness?
There were several people around Selro, including an old man.
He just took a look just now and the aura was not strong.
But when he exploded at this moment... he actually had the strength of half a step to the innate realm.
This old guy is a master at hiding!
Two and a half steps to innateness!
Xiao Chen suddenly realized. No wonder Marcus looked so confident that he could defeat him. With two and a half steps to the innate realm, he could dominate the Chinese ancient martial arts world.
As long as the innate ability is not revealed, it is almost invincible!
Even if it was the Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai or the Sword God Xue Chunqiu, facing two half-step innate masters alone, it would be almost impossible for them to win.
It is possible to be like Xuan Kong.
Unfortunately... they thought too simply of themselves. They thought his fighting ability was just so-so. They thought that with two half-step innate masters, they could surely win?
Xiao Chen shook his head, feeling somewhat sad.
He has defeated Xiantian several times and is known to be "capable of defeating Xiantian", but why does no one believe it?
Everyone thinks that he took advantage. A group of people surrounded Xiantian, and he was the one who stabbed him with the final blow?
This is nothing compared to fighting against the innate!
Xiao Chen looked at Selro again and found that this guy also had a worried look on his face, and then he didn't want to bother with him anymore.
He told Selro that he killed the Great Elder.
Selro, an insider, had the same expression, so... was he thinking he was bragging?
"Xiao Chen, do you stick to your choice?"
Marcus looked at Xiao Chen and asked coldly.
"I'll think about it."
Xiao Chen shook his head. He really needed to think again about how to save Selro.
If he were alone, facing two half-step innate people, that would be no problem.
But there is also Selro.
What if Marcus gave the order to kill Selro directly? That would be nonsense.
Therefore, the premise is that Celro must be rescued.
As for whether Marcus would kill Selro... Xiao Chen was too lazy to think about it. Now that it had come to this, killing him was not impossible.
The affection within a large family is inherently weak.
What's more...it also involves the competition for that position.
Haven’t you seen brothers killing each other in ancient times in order to fight for the throne?
Not to mention the killing of brothers, even if it was father and son, they would be killed without mercy.
Marcus felt somewhat proud after hearing what Xiao Chen said. Do you know what the situation is now?
"Be careful that he deliberately agrees to get out of the current situation."
John warned in a low voice.
"As long as I get the Black Blood Wand, if he dares to be my enemy, then... I will just kill him."
Marcus was not worried about whether he could become friends with Xiao Chen. He didn't care too much about it. The main thing was to strike back at Celero.
What he cares about most now is the Black Blood Wand.
"Um."
John nodded and looked at Xiao Chen. Would he really make a new choice?
Selro was also looking at Xiao Chen, surprisingly calm.
There was no struggle, no shouting, and it seemed as if it was waiting for Xiao Chen to make a choice.
"Xiao Chen, when did you realize something was wrong?"
Suddenly, John asked.
He thought that Xiao Chen was not surprised when he saw Marcus, which also meant that... Xiao Chen had noticed something.
"When you came to me, I felt something was wrong."
Xiao Chen looked at John and said.
"Why?"
John frowned. Did he feel something was wrong at that time? There shouldn't be any flaws.
"Because Selro is here, he won't let you ask me to come... If he wants me to come, he can just give me a call."
Xiao Chen said lightly.
"Of course, I was just a little confused, but on the way, your words made me doubt again... You said that Selro was not the best, wasn't that just paving the way for me? Now, you took me to see the even better Marcus! In fact, you said that to find an excuse for your betrayal, right? Just like what you said, 'People choose wise rulers to serve, and birds choose good trees to roost in.' You also want to convince yourself that Marcus is better than Selro, so you betrayed him."
“…”
John was silent. He didn't expect that his subconscious words would make Xiao Chen think so much.
"The biggest flaw is here."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"I'm here, but Selro didn't come out and shout 'my friend' the first time. This is very strange... In the past, he would shout this from a distance, which even made me feel embarrassed."
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Selro, who was tied up and still worried about his situation, couldn't help but laugh.
It’s just that his mouth was blocked and he couldn’t laugh, but from his expression, he was smiling.
That's true.
"Everything that follows is full of loopholes. A battle took place here. Although you have recovered well, don't underestimate the intuition of a master... There is also a smell of blood here, very faint, but I still smell it! In addition, your maid..."
When Xiao Chen said this, he looked at the maid standing at the door. She was not preparing to serve, but... blocking the door to prevent him from escaping.
"This maid is so beautiful. To put it bluntly, it's better to find someone to support her than to be a maid... In addition, not everyone can hide well. She was exposed. She is an expert."
The maid frowned slightly. Was she exposed?
She felt that she had performed very well and without any flaws.
"Speaking of this maid, Selro, I really have to tell you that you are not as successful as Marcus! Look at the maid next to Marcus, she is a beautiful woman with big breasts, a wasp waist and long legs. Then look at the White Rose next to you, she... well, she is also a beauty, but I am not into her."
“…”
Selro is helpless, is it my fault?
"Xiao Chen, as long as you hand over the Black Blood Wand, you and I will become friends... Alice will be yours tonight."
Marcus glanced at the maid and smiled.
