Chapter 1519 Encountering Trouble
After consuming half of the spirit stones, Chen Xuan suddenly discovered that he had broken through, reaching the mid-stage Nascent Soul. As he needed to consolidate his realm, he stopped refining spirit stones and focused on stabilizing his cultivation.
Just then, a semi-trailer truck suddenly blocked the road.
"Master, bad news!"
The driver slammed on the brakes.
"What happened?" the woman, with her delicate voice, hastily asked.
The old man also looked over with a solemn expression.
The driver said, "We've been surrounded, and the situation is extremely critical."
"Surrounded?"
The woman, with her delicate voice, looked around and saw no one. Her eyebrows furrowed, "Where are they? I don't see anyone at all?"
"Miss, you can't feel it because you are not a martial artist," the driver said in a deep voice.
"What should we do then?" The woman, with her delicate voice, became flustered.
"Miss, how about this, I'll go down to fight them. You and Master can take this opportunity to escape."
The driver hesitated for a moment, showing a resolute expression, but a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.
"That's the only way. If anything happens to you, we will ensure your family enjoys wealth and prosperity for a lifetime," the old man said gratefully.
"Thank you, Old Master!"
The driver clasped his fists in thanks and turned to get out of the car. But just then, he stopped again and turned to Chen Xuan, saying, "Kid, you've been riding along. Now it's your turn to be useful. Get out of the car with me to face the enemy."
He hadn't taken Chen Xuan seriously at first, but he always felt that Chen Xuan's presence could become an unexpected factor. That's why he wanted Chen Xuan to go down with him. As long as Chen Xuan went down with him, Chen Xuan wouldn't become that unexpected factor, and everything would go smoothly according to plan.
Chen Xuan suddenly opened his eyes, a white gleam flashing through them, then quickly vanishing. "You are no match for them. Going down is just seeking death."
"Kid, stop talking big! Are you scared?" the woman, with her delicate voice, said indignantly.
"I'm scared?"
Chen Xuan shook his head slightly, "It's just a few experts at the Mythical Realm. They are nothing in my eyes."
Mythical Realm?
And several of them?
Although the woman didn't cultivate, she knew what kind of existence a cultivator at the Mythical Realm was. Her delicate face changed, and she gritted her teeth, "Just a few Mythical Realm experts? You sure can brag."
The driver was slightly stunned and looked at Chen Xuan again.
The main force preparing to intercept them here was indeed a high-level expert at the Mythical Realm.
Could this kid really have the strength?
Chen Xuan shrugged and said, "You'll know whether I'm bragging or not in a moment. However, since you gave me a ride, I can remind you that your driver has a problem."
As he spoke, he glanced at the driver.
"Kid, don't talk nonsense!" the driver immediately shouted.
"Uncle Wang, you don't need to get angry. I want to see what this guy has to say," the woman, with her delicate voice, said indifferently.
Chen Xuan glanced at the driver and said, "Your driver just sent a message to someone, sharing your location with others. If you don't believe me, you can check his phone."
The driver's face changed again, but he quickly regained his composure. He said to the woman, with her delicate voice, and the white-haired old man, "Master, Miss, with Heaven as my witness, I, Wang Chen, have served the Shen family for half my life with unwavering loyalty and would never do such a thing."
"Uncle Wang, you've been protecting us all the way on the road. If it weren't for your protection, we grandfather and granddaughter wouldn't have escaped here. I believe you wouldn't leak our information," the woman, with her delicate voice, said.
"Thank you, Miss."
The white-haired old man frowned, his eyes showing a hint of anger, seemingly very displeased with Chen Xuan's words.
"Kid, Uncle Wang has been protecting us all along. If it weren't for Uncle Wang's protection, we would have been in trouble long ago. Stop talking nonsense here," the woman, with her delicate voice, attacked Chen Xuan.
"Don't you believe me?"
Chen Xuan reached out and grabbed, and the driver's phone appeared in his hand. He then handed it to the woman, with her delicate voice, "If you don't believe me, look for yourself."
"Miss, don't believe him."
The driver looked slightly nervous.
The woman, with her delicate voice, slapped Chen Xuan's hand, and the phone fell onto the seat. "Nonsense, I won't believe you."
Seeing the phone fall to the ground, the driver looked a bit smug.
"Since you don't believe me, then forget it."
Chen Xuan was nonchalant.
Considering the ride, he had said what he needed to say. The rest had nothing to do with him.
"Miss, it seems this fellow is a freeloader. But don't worry, I, Wang Chen, will protect you even unto death!"
With that, the driver resolutely rushed out.
Just then, more than a dozen figures emerged from the bushes. The three leading them were indeed at the Mythical Realm. One was at the fourth-grade Mythical Realm, and the other two were at the third-grade Mythical Realm.
Chen Xuan's eyes narrowed as he sized up the three, wondering in his heart who these people were.
Three experts at the Mythical Realm were first-class existences anywhere. Now, three of them appeared at once, all targeting this grandfather and granddaughter.
What was it all for?
On the way, he had heard that someone was chasing this grandfather and granddaughter, but he really didn't know why.
The driver, Wang Chen, was also an expert at the first-grade Mythical Realm, but facing the three, he was completely outmatched. In the blink of an eye, he was captured, leaving no opportunity for the white-haired old man and the woman, with her delicate voice, to escape.
At this moment, the expert at the fourth-grade Mythical Realm gestured to his subordinates. The other two experts at the third-grade Mythical Realm immediately led their subordinates to rush over.
"Grandfather, what should we do?"
The woman, with her delicate voice, was completely panicked.
The white-haired old man sighed deeply, "This is fate."
He seemed to be giving up on struggling.
"Crack!"
An expert at the third-grade Mythical Realm walked over and punched the glass, which shattered into pieces. With little effort, he broke it and instantly pulled open the car door. He saw Chen Xuan and slightly frowned.
According to the intelligence, Chen Xuan was not mentioned. However, he didn't take it to heart, subconsciously assuming Chen Xuan was a subordinate of the white-haired old man.
"Kid, I'll send you to the West!"
The expert at the third-grade Mythical Realm raised his hand and punched towards Chen Xuan's forehead.
A fierce gust of wind, carrying a chilling killing intent.
"Boom—"
However, Chen Xuan lightly raised his hand and grasped the fist of the expert at the third-grade Mythical Realm.
"This..."
The air instantly solidified. The expert at the third-grade Mythical Realm was dumbfounded. How did this kid do that?
Although he hadn't used his full strength, at such close range, it wasn't something an ordinary person could instantly grab his fist.
The white-haired old man and the woman, with her delicate voice, were also stunned.
Could it be that this kid wasn't bragging earlier?
The woman, with her delicate voice, clearly didn't believe it, but the white-haired old man's hope was rekindled.
"Old Gou, stop playing around, and get rid of him quickly," another expert at the third-grade Mythical Realm said coldly.
"I..."
This expert at the third-grade Mythical Realm initially wanted to say that he wasn't fooling around, but he felt that if he said it, wouldn't it prove his incompetence?
Therefore, he pointed at Chen Xuan's nose and said, "Kid, watch me cripple you!"
