Chapter 1060: Chapter 1060: Who Wants to Kill My Son?

"Alas, I invited you here to ensure the safety of my son, but why did you go and hunt Magical Beasts with him?"

"You think this is for his benefit, helping him achieve an excellent result, but in fact it’s not, you are harming him."

Su Liuyun’s facial expression was exaggerated as he looked at Lin Chen, sighing as he spoke.

Seeing Su Liuyun like this, Lin Chen was utterly bewildered.

This father and son pair are really something else, uttering such deceptive words so freely.

However, cooperating with Su Liuyun’s acting, it really seemed quite convincing, and if Lin Chen hadn’t known the entire process of events, he might have been fooled as well.

At this moment, Lin Chen finally understood why Su Yun had become what he was now, seeing how Su Liuyun could lie without showing any sign of guilt.

Since the Su family father and son were taking this approach, naturally Lin Chen couldn’t give them away.

"I got along very well with Brother Su, and actually at the beginning, Brother Su was capable of killing those Magical Beasts. It was I who couldn’t resist the urge to join in the fight when I saw Brother Su killing left and right. It was only because we joined forces that we were able to kill so many Magical Beasts within the Secluded Orchid Mountain Range."

Lin Chen faced the Su Family members and said this without batting an eye.

After these words, Su Liuyun was immediately stunned.

It seems that his son was able to befriend the person before him because they shared similar dispositions, which was very much in line with Su Liuyun’s own temperament.

At this moment, Su Liuyun wasn’t too concerned about Su Yun regarding Lin Chen as the boss.

After all, Lin Chen’s talent and strength were obvious for all to see. Such a brilliant young talent would be rightfully chosen by Su Yun as his boss, or even like a godfather—Su Liuyun saw nothing improper about that.

At this moment, Su Mu could tell that the three before him were putting on an act for his sake, but he still felt helpless.

After all, Lin Chen was indeed a prodigious youth. If he was willing to lend a hand to Su Yun, what could he possibly say, when the other party completely conformed to the hunting contest rules of the Su Family?

In fact, just now Lin Chen had only intended to teach Su Wu a deep lesson upon sensing the latter’s murderous intent, without actually planning to kill him.

Doing so would only bring trouble and annoyances to Lin Chen himself.

If Lin Chen had fully exerted his strength and really wanted to kill Su Wu, the previous fall and severe injury would have been far from what Su Wu would have suffered.

Afterwards, Lin Chen followed Su Yun and walked down from the high platform.

"Boss, you were really awesome just now, knocking Su Wu down with one punch. I’m utterly in awe of you, my admiration for you is as profound as..."

After walking down from the high platform, Su Yun immediately began to sing Lin Chen’s praises, causing Lin Chen to wave his hand.

"Enough, stop kissing up to me."

Lin Chen had already figured Su Yun out, and was tired of hearing such sycophantic words.

At this point, although Su Yun had presented many powerful Magical Beasts, and claimed they were killed jointly with Lin Chen, in reality, both knew very well that these Magical Beasts must have been killed by Lin Chen alone, and Su Yun was still the same useless person he always was, without any real capability.

However, due to Su Yun finding a heavenly talent like Lin Chen, they were all filled with envy.

"Patriarch, is it time to start the tournament now?"

Su Mu looked at Su Liuyun and asked indifferently.

He was eager to watch Su Yun be brutalized by his son Su Dongyu on the high platform.

Once on the stage, the true incompetence of Su Yun, that waste, would be instantly revealed, and after being viciously beaten by Su Dongyu, the Su Family members would then have the chance to mock Su Yun. He wanted to see how Su Yun could still have the face to sit on the seat of the Young Master of the Su Family after that.

"Hmm, since everyone has finished their demonstrations, let’s proceed with the remaining tournament battles."

Su Liuyun nodded, agreeing to the upcoming tournament battles.

However, just as Su Liuyun finished speaking, Su Yun stood out.

"Wait, father, before the tournament begins, I have something very important to say."

Su Yun was unusually serious, looking extremely solemn.

Seeing Su Yun like this, the members of the Su Family immediately became serious, their gaze fixed on Su Yun.

"What is it?"

Su Liuyun, seeing his son’s demeanor, immediately realized that what Su Yun was about to say must be a matter of great importance.

"During the hunting contest in the Secluded Orchid Mountain Range, we encountered an assassination attempt by an outsider."

"I ask you, father, and the esteemed Elders, to seek justice for me."

Speaking thus, Su Yun then bowed, a very earnest look on his face.

"What?!"

"Assassination?!"

"Who did it?"

Upon hearing Su Yun’s words, Su Liuyun’s expression immediately changed drastically. Who dared to invade their Su Family’s territory and attempt to assassinate the Su Family Disciples? This was sheer lawlessness, a total disregard for the Su Family.

Su Yun then said, "Father, when those assassins appeared their target was very clear, they were coming directly for me."

"If it weren’t for the boss’s intervention, I would have lost my life by now."

Su Yun spoke loudly of the assassination, his heart naturally full of endless grievance.

Announcing it so openly, he intended to make those harboring malicious intentions against him feel terror-stricken.

Actually, both Su Yun and Su Liuyun were somewhat suspecting Su Mu; however, without any concrete evidence, they dared not say much.

Now, with twenty-eight corpses of the black market assassins laid out before them, the Su Family Elders felt as though their faces had been powerfully slapped.

It was a joke; there was a murder under their watch, and right at their doorstep, yet they knew nothing of it. Weren’t they completely dismissed?

At this moment, both Su Mu and Su Yongze felt a trace of fear within, worried that some flaw might have been exposed regarding this matter.
