Chapter 119 Farce

On the city wall of Luoyaguan, Su Mingsheng looked helplessly at Su Liejie, who was on top of the watchtower.

"You brat, why are you drinking again? Get down here!" Su Mingsheng cursed loudly, causing the soldiers on the city wall to smirk. The reputation of the Four Heroes of Canglan Kingdom was not small, and Su Liejie's quick rise to fame was also due to his father being the leader of the Four Heroes of Canglan.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have had the chance to challenge so many geniuses. If he were an unknown person, the geniuses wouldn't even bother with him.

"Hey, father, why are you here again?" Su Liejie, slightly drunk, swayed his wine cup and asked with a smile. As a peak-level cultivator in the Foundation Establishment stage, he couldn't be drunk by ordinary wine. He just enjoyed the feeling, and if he were serious, he could instantly dispel the alcohol.

Su Mingsheng was furious. If it weren't for the public setting, he would have kicked Su Liejie off the watchtower.

"Come down, I have something to tell you!" Su Mingsheng said in a deep voice, his tone heavy, which made Su Liejie sober up. The drunken flush on his face faded visibly, and then he leaped down and landed next to Su Mingsheng.

Despite his usual frivolous appearance, he could easily captivate young girls when he was serious.

"Speak, father, why do you have time to come find me? I thought you had forgotten about me, your son," Su Liejie said with a yawn, looking down from the city wall, deliberately avoiding eye contact with Su Mingsheng.

Although angry, Su Mingsheng suppressed it and said in a serious tone, "Don't challenge Qin Jun."

Su Liejie's pupils constricted, and the lazy expression on his face instantly disappeared. He stared into Su Mingsheng's eyes and asked coldly, "Why?"

"You are not his match!" Su Mingsheng said in a deep voice.

This single sentence almost made Su Liejie explode with anger, and his eyes instantly filled with fury.

He couldn't help but recall his childhood. The renowned Su Mingsheng had never liked him from a young age, considering him weak. Even though he proved himself time and time again, in Su Mingsheng's eyes, he still seemed unworthy of mention.

This time, he wanted to challenge Qin Jun to show the might of the geniuses of Canglan Kingdom, but his father stood in his way.

He was filled with anger and his determination to challenge Qin Jun became even stronger.

"Qin Jun..." Su Mingsheng was about to mention that Qin Jun had already broken through the Golden Core stage, but at that moment, an inappropriate voice came from below.

"Who the hell is Su Liejie? Get down here!"

The speaker turned out to be Qin Jun, extremely rude, causing the people, cultivators, and soldiers on the street and the city wall to look at him.

Already in a bad mood, Su Liejie raised his palm and sent a surge of spiritual power in the form of a green giant palm towards Qin Jun.

Seeing this, Qin Jun didn't dodge, but raised his hand and a lightning pierced through the green giant palm effortlessly.

This scene made Su Liejie raise his eyebrows. He had thought the other party was just a clown, but it turned out he had real skills.

However, he didn't care. The palm strike just now was just a casual move. Besides, he was not good at palm techniques, but at sword techniques.

"He is Qin Jun!" Su Mingsheng said in a low voice, feeling a sense of impending disaster. He hadn't expected Qin Jun to come so quickly.

Sure enough, Su Liejie immediately jumped down and landed in front of Qin Jun.

Qin Jun was looking at him with a mocking expression, with Li Yuanba, Qin Yun, Xiao Li, Bloodblade King, and Ye Xuan standing behind him, while the others were resting at the inn.

"I heard you've been waiting here just to challenge me. Is that true?" Qin Jun crossed his arms, pretending to be arrogant.

He intended to provoke Su Liejie, preferably making him lose his composure.

"Exactly!" Su Liejie said coldly. As he spoke, he raised his right hand, and a white jade long sword appeared in his hand out of thin air.

At this moment, Su Mingsheng jumped down and apologized with a bow, "Your Highness, please don't lower yourself to the level of a young man. Let me apologize to you on his behalf."

Boom!

The whole street instantly boiled over. Who was Su Mingsheng?

He was the leader of the Four Heroes of Canglan. He actually apologized to Qin Jun. The cultivators and the people couldn't help but feel a sense of despair as if their idol had collapsed.

"My goodness! Is he really Su Mingsheng?"

"How could he be so humble!"

"Embarrassing!"

"Look at Su Liejie's expression. Clearly, he is Su Mingsheng."

"Tsk tsk, there's a good show to watch. Su Liejie has been guarding here for so many days, and now his father comes to apologize to his opponent..."

The surrounding discussions reached Su Liejie's ears, making his expression even more unpleasant.

Qin Jun also showed a wry smile on his face. What was going on?

"Father! Get out of the way!" Su Liejie shouted angrily, then brushed past Su Mingsheng and rushed towards Qin Jun, his long sword leading the way, aiming to strike at Qin Jun's throat.

Qin Jun took out the Silver Dragon Soul-Slaying Spear, ready to defeat Su Liejie honorably.

Unexpectedly, Su Mingsheng appeared between the two in an instant, grabbing Su Liejie's wrist with one hand, preventing him from moving.

Su Liejie was almost exploding with anger, wishing he could stab his father in front of him. How could he have such a pig of a father!

"Father! What are you trying to do!" Su Liejie asked angrily. He also cared about his reputation. Before this battle, he deliberately spread the news, making it known throughout the country. But now, his father stood up to stop him and even apologized to Qin Jun on his behalf.

Wasn't this saying that he, Su Liejie, was not as good as Qin Jun?

If this got out, how could he continue to stay here?

Su Mingsheng also felt ashamed, but he was more afraid of his son dying at the hands of Qin Jun, especially when he saw Li Yuanba standing behind Qin Jun. He dared not let his son act.

"You are not his match!" Su Mingsheng said in a low, stern voice. Unfortunately, instead of dissuading Su Liejie, his words only added fuel to the fire, making Su Liejie even more furious.

Lord Qin looked speechless, and the people behind him, including Qin Yun, were also at a loss. They never expected that the epic battle between the two geniuses would turn out like this.

At the same time, they were also curious about what Lord Qin had done to Su Mingsheng to make him so fearful, to the extent that he dared not let his son challenge Lord Qin alone.

Facing the puzzled looks from the crowd, Lord Qin shrugged innocently.

But he couldn't let Su Mingsheng continue to cause trouble. After all, he was on a mission. What right did a minor character like Su Mingsheng have to interfere?

"Don't worry, I will stop when I've had enough with your son. I won't take his life," Lord Qin said, causing Su Mingsheng's tense heart to relax, and infuriating Su Liejie.

The other meaning of this statement was that Lord Qin could kill Su Liejie.

How could Su Liejie, the number one genius of the Canglan Kingdom, tolerate this?

"Hmph! It's not certain who will die in the end!" Su Liejie snorted coldly, then pushed Su Mingsheng aside and thrust his sword towards Lord Qin. This time, Su Mingsheng finally did not intervene.

Everyone tensed up again. Who would emerge victorious in the battle between the top geniuses of the two countries?

Naturally, they hoped that Su Liejie would win. The second genius had already lost to Lord Qin. If the first genius were to lose as well, wouldn't it mean that the Canglan Kingdom was inferior to the Qianyue Kingdom?
