Chapter 157 You Like Being Toasted?

Recently, another interesting event had happened in the Great Zhou Imperial Court, and that was Ji Yuchen’s reappearance. He was appointed as Prefectural Magistrate of Fu Ning County in Jiang Prefecture. Although his official position was not high, he had special privileges. Firstly, he did not need to listen to the orders of Jiang Prefecture’s government dispatches, and could directly report to the emperor. Secondly, all the matters in Fu Ning County, including the taxes and taxes, were completely unrelated to Jiang Prefecture.

It could be said that this was a test site set up by Emperor Zhou. This would allow Ji Yuchen to trial and error, and slowly advance his tax system. Before he left, Ji Yuchen came to see Su Wen again.

After chatting for a while, Su Wen sent Ji Yuchen out of the city. Standing at the city gate, Su Wen looked at Ji Yuchen’s departing carriage and could not help but sigh.

Su Wen admired such an old man.

When he returned home, Su Wen picked up the two pieces of intelligence that the Secret Shadow Guard and Sun Wei had sent over. This had become his daily habit. It allowed him to understand many things about the capital. The Northwest Qiang tribe sent a messenger to the capital, and the messenger met the crown prince… The Third Prince wanted to find an opponent and sent out a letter to invite any 9th Grade Star Rank from the martial world to come to the capital to challenge him. There would be a generous reward given. Su Wen shook his head slightly. This fellow sure knew how to play. Wu Kunhu had paid a visit to Jing Duke recently. It was said that he wanted to arrange a marriage for Wu Muyu!

Pa!

Su Wen slapped the table fiercely. He frowned in displeasure!

Although he was about to get married, it did not mean that he would allow Wu Muyu to marry someone else! “Jing Duke…”

He pondered for a moment. Jing Duke’s title was hereditary. As the founding general of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the rewards he received were hereditary and extremely honorable.

It could even be said that in terms of status, Su Wen really could not compare to him. Although Su Changqing had authority, once Su Changqing passed away, it was still unknown what the Su family would be like. However, this family was hereditary and would be passed down forever. As long as they did not rebel and the Great Zhou Dynasty was not destroyed, they would always exist.

This was also one of the reasons why the Great Zhou valued and encouraged men to establish military contributions.

The current Jing Duke, Xu Qiao, didn’t just have an empty position. He also held a position in the army.

Although his position couldn’t be compared to Wu Kunhu, in terms of his identity, he was superior to him.

The two of them could be considered as of equal statuses. “Su Wen, bad news!”

As he was thinking, he saw Wu Lie rush in. He pulled Su Wen and said, “This is bad! My father wants to find a partner for my sister!”

At this moment, the gatekeeper also rushed in. He said anxiously, “Young Master, Young Master Wu barged in directly. I couldn’t stop him!”

Su Wen waved his hand and signaled for the guard to leave, leaving him and Wu Lie alone. Su Wen asked in a deep voice, “How many sons does Xu Qiao have?”

In his memory, Xu Qiao had more than one

son!

Wu Lie was shocked. “How did you know?” Su Wen sneered. “Why wouldn’t I know? Don’t forget, I’m the commander of the Secret Shadow Guard, and I supervise officials. Your father is among them!” Wu Lie hurriedly said, “It’s Xu Qiao’s third son, Xu Longcheng! Xu Qiao seems to have already agreed! My younger sister is having a fight with my father at home. The house is in chaos, so I took advantage of the chaos and ran out.” Su Wen looked at Wu Lie and sized him up before whispering, “Brother Wu, I need your help.” He started to whisper into Wu Lie’s ear.

As Wu Lie listened, his eyes widened. Finally, his head began to shake like a rattle.

“No! Absolutely not! My father will beat me to death!”

Su Wen flew into a rage. “Don’t you have any sense of responsibility? Aren’t you a man? For the sake of my happiness and your sister’s happiness, what’s wrong with you being the big brother? Don’t worry! When the time comes, you can rest for a few days and I’ll treat you to a few days of fun at the Hundred Flowers Pavilion!”

Wu Lie gritted his teeth… before saying in a deep voice, “Then it’s settled! Isn’t it just a beating? For the sake of my brother, I’ll accept it!”

However, he tried to persuade him again, “But aren’t you being too ruthless? How is Xu Longcheng going to conduct himself in the future? Why don’t you talk to him first and see what his attitude is? If this matter can be resolved peacefully, why offend him?”

Su Wen pondered for a moment. It seemed to make sense. After all, it had not been decided yet. If he went to talk to Xu Longcheng, there might still be a chance. After pondering for a moment, Su Wen left and went straight to the Second Prince’s residence. When the two of them met, the second prince smiled, “Little brother, why have you come?” Su Wen smiled and said, “I’m here to ask Your Highness to help me arrange a meeting with Xu Longcheng. I don’t have any interactions with this person, so I’m afraid he won’t see me if I rashly arrange a meeting.” The second prince was taken aback, and he asked curiously, “Why do you want ask him out?”

Su Wen smiled and said, “Isn’t it because Wu Kunhu wants to marry Sister Muyu to this fellow? You know Muyu and I, so we definitely can’t let this matter succeed. That’s why I’m thinking of discussing with Xu Longcheng to get him to reject this marriage. Perhaps there might still be a chance.” “Hiss!” The second prince gasped. This matter was not easy to handle! It could potentially completely offend the other party! However, Su Wen had already spoken. If he didn’t agree, Su Wen would probably be displeased. The Second Prince smiled and tried to persuade him. “Su Wen, you are about to get married to Yan Luoying. Listen to my advice. As for Muyu, forget it. Wu Kunhu won’t let her be your unofficial wife. Moreover, Wu Kunhu and Yan Ze have been at odds with each other for the past few years. It’s impossible for the two of you to be together. Why do you have to be like this? Xu Longcheng is a good match. If you ask me… about this…”

He did not finish his sentence, but his meaning was clear. Su Wen shook his head and said, “I can’t. Your Second Highness, Muyu and I are in love with each other. It’s only because His Majesty has decreed that I have no choice but to marry Yan Luoying. I must find a way to marry Muyu in the future, so please help me arrange an appointment with Xu Longcheng.” The second prince hesitated for a moment before replying, “Alright then! I’ll schedule a meeting for you at the Immortals’ Abode Pavilion tonight.” Su Wen nodded as thanks. Inside Penglai Pavilion, the Second Prince and Xu Longcheng arrived first. Xu Longcheng was 24 or 25 years old. He had a tall and slender build. His appearance was also known as having sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. He was quite handsome. From a certain perspective, Wu Kunhu’s judgment was pretty good. The Second Prince smiled and said, “Younger Brother Longcheng, I didn’t come to look for you today! It was Su Wen!” Xu Longcheng frowned and said, “Su Wen? Why is he looking for me? I have never interacted with him.”

The second prince sighed, “Perhaps it’s because of Wu Muyu’s marriage with you.” Without waiting for Xu Longcheng to respond, the second prince quickly explained, “But I had no choice. We have a deep relationship. You know his father as well, it’s not convenient for me to reject him. However, this matter is between you and him. You can do whatever you want. I’ll leave after he arrives.”

Xu Longcheng heaved a sigh of relief. However, the Second Prince hesitated to speak. Xu Longcheng could tell that the Second Prince had something to say. He frowned and said, “Second Prince, if you have something to say, just say it.”

The Second Prince shook his head and said, “Su Wen is not to be underestimated. Recently, he has been doing very well in the royal court and is highly appreciated by Father. Even if you reject him, you must speak nicely to him and not anger him.” Before Xu Longcheng could reply, he heard a commotion at the entrance.

Su Wen walked in. “Hahaha! Sorry for being late!” Su Wen replied politely.

The second prince introduced the two of them before taking his leave. He did not want to get involved in this messy affair.

In the end, only Su Wen and Xu Longcheng were left in the room. Su Wen smiled and said, “Brother Longcheng, I’ve long heard of your great name. It’s said that among the younger generation, Brother Longcheng is the most likely to be the first to break through to the Earth Rank. I’m deeply impressed.”

Xu Longcheng knew what his motive was, so how could he have any good intentions? He said coldly, “Brother Su, speak your mind!” Su Wen said, “It’s like this. I heard that General Wu went to the residence to discuss the marriage with your father yesterday. However, there is something that General Wu doesn’t know. Sister Muyu and I are in love with each other and we have already decided to marry each other. It’s just that I have to marry Yan Luoying first. After that, we can consider our marriage. So, that’s what I think…” “Brother Xu, you’re a talented man with an illustrious family background. What kind of woman can’t you find? Why don’t you make it convenient and reject this marriage?”

The corner of Xu Longcheng’s lips curled into a cold smile.

Was this the infamous Su Wen?

He was not as domineering as the rumors said.

Unfortunately, no matter how good Su Wen’s attitude was, he did not intend to agree. However, he was in no hurry. He laughed. “Brother Su, is this how you ask for favors? You should at least give me a toast!”

Su Wen faltered slightly before a smile appeared on his face. He picked up the wine pot and personally filled it up for Xu Longcheng. He then poured himself another glass and drained it. After which he replied, “I’ve downed my drink first as a sign of respect to you!” Xu Longcheng looked at him and said disdainfully, “Such a small cup, aren’t you too insincere?” Su Wen narrowed his eyes. He could tell that Xu Longcheng was making things difficult for him.

However, he also knew that this matter of his was simply the hatred of snatching his wife, so it was normal for the other party to be angry. Su Wen picked up the wine pot and smiled. “Then I’ll finish this!” He raised his head and downed the strong liquor in the pot. After finishing all the wine, Su Wen poured the wine pot over, showing that not a single drop was left. He smiled and said, “Is this sincere enough?” Xu Longcheng lifted his chin and sneered, “You’ve already drunk it. What should I drink?”

It was clear that he did not take the second prince’s words to heart. In fact, it could even be said that the second prince’s words made him want to see what the consequences of angering Su Wen would be. Again and again… Was he not planning to end this charade? Su Wen licked his lips and smiled. “Young Master Xu, you mean you don’t want to reject the marriage?” “What can you do even if I don’t refuse?” Xu Longcheng sneered. “That Wu Muyu is sweet, gentle, and comes from a good family. She is a good match for me. Why should I reject her? Who do you think you are? Do you have the qualifications to talk to me?” Su Wen suddenly moved and smashed the wine pot in his hand at Xu Longcheng! “F*ck you. If you don’t want to accept my request, why are you talking to me? Are you playing with me?” Pa!

Xu Longcheng reacted extremely quickly. He raised his hand and punched out, causing the wine pot to explode. He was also a 9th Stage Star Rank cultivator! He wasn’t afraid of Su Wen! “So what if I’m playing with you!”

At this moment… Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Three figures broke through the window!

Chu He, Zhao Jin, and Xu Longcheng’s guard came in!

“Don’t make a move! I’ll do it myself. I’d like to see how capable you are!” shouted Xu Longcheng. He already knew that his cultivation base was stronger than Su Wen’s when they exchanged blows just now. However, Su Wen’s guards had already arrived. He saw that there was only one person on his side and was afraid that the guard would suffer a loss, so he spoke as such. This person was rather quick-witted! Su Wen grinned. “Zhao Jin, Chu He, beat up his guard! Don’t worry about anything else!” Su Wen also knew that Xu Longcheng’s identity wasn’t simple. He could fight Xu Longcheng, but if Zhao Jin and Chu He joined in, there would be trouble!

But for the guards to hit the guards, the young master to hit the young master, there was nothing wrong with that! At this moment, the boss of the Immortals’ Abode Pavilion rushed over. He said with a bitter face, “Young Masters, you can’t fight here!”

He did not understand why Young Master Su Wen would fight every time he came!

The last time, he had beaten up Guo Bin. This time was the son of a duke! And judging from the situation, they were about to attack! Su Wen shouted, “Don’t worry, I’ll pay for the loss if I destroy your place!” “The loser will pay!” Xu Longcheng was equally fearless.

Bam!

Xu Longcheng then threw a punch at Su Wen without any fanfare.

In the next second, violent True Qi burst out. Su Wen turned around and activated Stellar Transposition, changing his position! Behind his original position, a huge hole appeared in the wall!

On the other side, Zhao Jin and Chu He attacked at the same time!

The guard facing them only had a cultivation base of 5th Grade Earth Rank.

Being attacked by these two people, he was subdued in no time! Su Wen and Xu Longcheng had however barely just started fighting. Chu He stepped on the person and asked, “What do we do now?”

Zhao Jin smiled and said, “Didn’t Young Master say to beat him up? How about this? You hit his face all the way to his chest, and I’ll hit his feet all the way to his stomach. Just don’t beat him to death. Beat him until the Young Master is done fighting.” “Alright!” The guard’s expression changed drastically. “Brothers, we’re all bodyguards. Must you do this?”

Zhao Jin exclaimed, “Blame yourself for following the wrong person!” As he spoke, he threw a punch at the man’s stomach! As soon as Su Wen and Xu Longcheng clashed, they felt the difference! Xu Longcheng’s True Qi was extremely strong! Compared to those opponents he had encountered in the Moon Worship Sect, they were simply not on the same level! Although their cultivation levels were the same, the destructive power of their True Qi was completely different! “Boom!” Another fist collided and Su Wen took three steps back!

He said in a low voice, “Heaven Ranked cultivation technique?” Xu Longcheng sneered, “Our Xu Family is one of the founding fathers of the country. We built our family through a chaotic war, so we naturally have a Heaven Rank cultivation technique. However, I didn’t expect that Su Changqing, who started from nothing and didn’t have any martial arts inheritance, would be able to obtain a Heaven Rank cultivation technique for you! It seems that he really has high hopes for you!” He thought that Su Wen’s cultivation technique was obtained by Su Changqing. This was also the first time Su Wen had fought against someone with a Heaven Rank cultivation technique! It was also thanks to the Sorcerer God’s Golden Gu in his body that the quality of his True Qi had increased by a lot during this period of time. In addition to Emperor Zhou’s elixir and North Sea Violent Ape’s blood essence, his cultivation was already approaching the peak of 8th Grade.

Otherwise, he might not be able to even give Xu Longcheng a workout! The technique that Xu Longcheng practiced was called the Hundred Circles Essence Condensation Technique! The unique characteristic of this cultivation technique was that the Qi in one’s body was circulating at high speeds all the time. Even as it increased the speed of cultivation, it would also continuously condense the quality of the

Although the effect was definitely not as good as the Sorcerer God’s Golden Gu, it was still not something ordinary cultivation techniques could compare to. And most importantly, there was no repercussions to worry about! Su Wen’s eyes narrowed slightly as he stepped onto a Star Position!

This time, he had stepped into the Extreme Yang Star Position, which enhanced his fist power!

After stepping into the Extreme Yang Star, the temperature of the fire elemental energy would increase by two levels. The duration would be for three breaths. If the next step was to step into another Extreme Yang Star, the duration of the Extreme Yang effect would be extended to ten breaths, and the temperature of the fire elemental energy would increase by five levels.

This was the effect of the Extreme Yang Star! Su Wen then took a second step, once again stepping into the position of another Extreme Yang Star! “Huuu!”

He could even feel the heat wave on his fist!

Bam! With a punch, the searing True Qi warped the air around him.

Xu Longcheng’s eyes were wide open as he laughed, “Just in time!” “Watch my Seven Kills Army Shattering Fist!” As Xu Longcheng got into his stance, the surrounding temperature seemed to drop significantly Chu He, who was watching the battle, frowned and said, “A Heaven Rank fist technique! Young Master won’t suffer, right?” The bodyguard who was being beaten up said, “Although my young master’s Heaven Rank fist technique isn’t too mature, he took a lot of effort in condensing his killing intent. The duke made him kill every day, and few people of his age are his match. Moreover, your young master is a few years younger than my young

master!”

As they spoke, the fists of both sides had already collided!

This Seven Kill Army Shattering Fist was a technique passed down in the Xu family. It had been used in the military since the founding of the country! The stronger the killing intent, the stronger the fist technique. Although the moves were simple, it was a path of great skill. As the fist and fist collided, Su Wen’s fire elemental energy was instantly suppressed!

At the same time, he unleashed the power of his Jadebreak Fist!

However, what surprised him was that the hidden fist force that he hid within Xu Longcheng was actually forcefully dissolved by Xu Longcheng’s fist force! This was something that Su Wen had never encountered before!

Pa!

Su Wen was sent flying.

Seeing his young master being beaten, Zhao Jin punched down! “Who told you to talk so much? Did I f**king ask you?” Chu He also slapped him. “Bastard, you’re the one who cursed my young master!”

However, both of them could tell that Su Wen was not seriously injured! Even though Su Wen had two Heaven Rank techniques, the Stellar Transposition Technique was not a specialized killing technique. It only provided an amplification effect, and the Jadebreak Fist was only an Earth Ranked fist technique to begin with. In a situation where their Qi was similar, Su Wen still could not defeat Xu Longcheng! However, he was only slightly disadvantaged and did not suffer any serious injuries. This was going to be interesting. The two became a drawn-out battle, the two of them constantly battling within the Immortals’ Abode Pavilion.

By this time, all the guests had run away. The boss of the Immortals’ Abode Pavilion had also reported to the authorities, and the people from the patrol office also rushed over. The problem was… who would dare to go in and stop them?

Everyone only resorted to gathering outside Penglai Pavilion to prevent pedestrians from approaching “Stop fighting, young masters!” “Stop fighting!” Everyone was shouting outside, but the two offenders in question pretended not to hear them.

Su Wen and Xu Longcheng continuously exchanged blows! Xu Longcheng had the upper hand the whole time, and started to mock Su Wen, “If you see this Young Master in the future, you better take a detour. Otherwise, I’ll beat you up every time I see you!”

“I heard that His Majesty is protecting you. I wonder if His Majesty will stand up for you if I beat you up?” “Haha, just wait for Wu Muyu to lie on my bed!”

Pa!

Su Wen took another punch!

However, whatever injuries he got were recovered almost instantly. It didn’t matter at all!

Gradually, Xu Longcheng realized that Su Wen had taken quite a few punches over and over again. So why was it that he seemed like he was completely uninjured? Furthermore, Su Wen would always run away after exchanging a punch with him. After running for a while, he would fight with him again before running away!

Although he found it strange, he did not take it to heart. In any case, he was the one who had been beating up Su Wen all along. Xu Longcheng took the chance to ridicule loudly, “Haha! Are you trying to exhaust this Young Master’s cultivation? My Hundred Circles Essence Condensation Technique’s rate of regeneration is far beyond your imagination. No matter how much it consumes, you will be the one lying down in the end!”

Xu Longcheng arrogantly hooted!

But Su Wen totally ignored his words, continuing his bizarre tactic of fighting.

The fight between the two of them lasted for a really long time… for more than two hours.

Xu Longcheng’s guard couldn’t take it anymore. His young master was having a good time fighting, but the problem was that he couldn’t. He had been beaten up by the two of them for more than two hours.

He was about to fall apart!

Especially each time Su Wen was beaten up, Zhao Jin and Chu He would vent it out on him!

Chu He saw that Su Wen was being suppressed and frowned. “What should we do? Isn’t Young Master asking for trouble? Even if he continues fighting, he won’t win if he doesn’t have any other moves.”

Zhao Jin said, “I’m guessing that Young Master definitely has a way. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be wasting his time with that brat!”

“What kind of bullsh*t idea is that?! It’s impossible for him to win! Big brothers, I’m begging you. You don’t want your Young Master to be beaten up anymore, right? Quickly take him away.” Xu Longcheng’s guard said with a sad face. Chu He punched him. “Do I need you to say anything?”

Zhao Jin said angrily, “My family’s young master will definitely win. Watch my Flicking Eggs Divine Finger!”

“ARRRGGHHHH!”

Another miserable howl came out from the guard.

Right at this moment, Su Wen threw out another punch!

Xu Longcheng was fearless because Su Wen had already done this more than once. Every time, he was asking for trouble!

“Die!”

Xu Longcheng gathered his strength and punched out!

Pa!

But in the exchange this time, Xu Longcheng’s eyes widened in shock!

Su Wen’s punch had suddenly explosively increased in strength!

He only felt a tremendous force assaulting him. Even though he was using a Heaven Rank fist technique, he was still unable to match it.

Crack!

He even heard the sound of bones cracking!

This time, Xu Longcheng flew out!

Just as he got up, Su Wen had already rushed forward!

“Jadebreak Fist, explode!”

The Jadebreak Fist Fist, which had doubled in power, was finally not melted by Xu Longcheng’s punch. It could finally display its effects!

Another force imploded within Xu Longcheng’s body. His body shook and paused for a second.

In that short amount of time, Su Wen’s fist had already landed on his face!

Pa!

Xu Longcheng felt a heavy blow to his head, and the force of the punch entered his brain, causing him to fall into a daze.

Su Wen laughed hysterically. “This daddy here can make countless mistakes! On the other hand, you can only slip up once!”

He laughed as he threw his fist at Xu Longcheng’s body!

Lucky Star Position! Critical Hit attribute!

This was the only way Su Wen could think of achieving victory without using any weapons or secret arts!

However, compared to the last time, Su Wen’s face was very dark today!

The cooldown was once every ten minutes, and there was not even a single critical hit in the meantime!

However, Su Wen refused to accept it. Since you can’t kill me, I will whittle you to death!

Finally, the Star Position displayed its effect

At this moment, the Immortals’ Abode Pavilion suddenly let out a sorrowful cry.

Bam!

The entire building collapsed because of the battle between Su Wen and Xu Longcheng!

And Su Wen was still punching Xu Longcheng in the ruins.

He had been beaten up for more than two hours, and Su Wen remembered every single hit he had gotten!

While Xu Longcheng was being arrogant, Su Wen had been counting how many punches this bastard had given him!

He would hit back twice as hard!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

However, his punch totally differed from how Xu Longcheng had hit him.

When Xu Longcheng hit him, Su Wen didn’t lose his ability to resist. With his True Qi protecting his body, he could still dodge and retaliate. When the fists landed on his body, the damage wasn’t severe.

Su Wen could also recover from his injuries, so he would not be severely injured.

However, Su Wen had chosen to hit Xu Longcheng when the latter had almost lost his ability to resist.

The force of each punch shot straight into his internal organs. Xu Longcheng was soon vomiting blood.

Finally, Su Wen stopped. It was just that Xu Longcheng was no longer as graceful as before. His head had been beaten into the shape of a pig’s head and countless bones in his body had shattered.

It was extremely miserable!

Su Wen straightened his body and sneered. “You shameless thing. You like being toasted that much? This daddy here will toast you with a blast of urine!”

As he spoke, he was about to take off his pants, completely ignoring the fact that the patrol guards and the crowd of citizens were watching!

Xu Longcheng’s guard was so shocked that his eyes were about to pop out. He struggled with all his might and shouted, “How dare you do this!”
