Chapter 689 Yao Family

However, what Su Chen was most concerned about was Gu Qianyin's state just now. The combat power that Gu Qianyin unleashed just now was able to freeze and kill an eighth-level expert in the Lingtai Realm in an instant. This kind of combat power was really terrifying.

Even Su Chen was sincerely surprised by the fighting power that instantly burst out of Gu Qianyin's body.

After Su Chen recovered a little from his injuries, he asked, "What happened to your combat power just now?"

Gu Qianyin's pretty face blushed slightly and said, "I thought you were dead just now. I don't know what happened, but suddenly a string in my head seemed to be broken, and I lost my mind."

"I don't remember much about what happened after that."

"When I came to my senses, that was it."

"Can you still exert the same power now?" Su Chen asked.

Gu Qianyin tried it and shook her head: "I can't use it anymore."

Su Chen hummed: "You contain some kind of power, but I'm not sure yet whether this power is a special bloodline or something else."

Gu Qianyin hesitated and asked: "Is my black sea of ​​true energy also related to this?"

"Yes, it should be." Su Chen said, "Can you still enter that state now?"

"No more." Gu Qianyin shook her head.

After a moment of silence, Gu Qianyin suddenly seemed to be worried. Her hands and fingers, as white as green onions, tangled together, and she hesitated to speak.

"What's wrong?"

"No...it's nothing. I was just thinking, was I the same person at that time, or was it not me? At that time, I felt that my body was no longer my own, as if my body was occupied by another person." Gu Qianyin said .

Su Chen pondered, Gu Qianyin's situation was indeed a bit strange. His strength could suddenly increase so much, and he still didn't have the memory of that time. Such a situation was indeed rare, and even he couldn't tell for a moment what it was. what happened.

Seeing the deep worry on Gu Qianyin's face, Su Chen comforted him: "Don't worry, I will definitely find out what your physical condition is."

"Um."

Gu Qianyin hummed softly, the expression on her face gradually became vivid, like ice and snow melting, and her beautiful eyes turned back and forth on Su Chen several times.

Suddenly, Su Chen rolled his eyes.

"I thought you were really dead just now."

"Didn't I say that I won't die that easily?" Su Chen shrugged and added, "And I won't let a woman die on my behalf."

"Don't talk nonsense. I didn't want to die on your behalf." Gu Qianyin blushed. She didn't expect that Su Chen had captured her mental state when she thought she was going to die.

Su Chen smiled and stopped bickering with Gu Qianyin. This girl is actually a bit clumsy and not as sharp-tongued as Li Shitong. To argue with her is to bully her.

"Go and look over that old guy's body."

Su Chen changed the subject and got down to business.

Gu Qianyin nodded, walked to the old man who was frozen into an ice sculpture, pushed with his hand, and the old man fell straight to the ground like a piece of rotten wood.

Gu Qianyin used a long sword to open the old man's clothes and rummaged around for a while, then exclaimed softly: "There is a token here."

With that said, Gu Qianyin came over with the token and showed it to Su Chen.

Su Chen took it and saw that it was a bronze token with an ancient Chinese character "Yao" engraved on it.

Apart from this, there are no other markings on the token. However, the word "Yao" reminded Su Chen of something.

"The Yao family, one of the eight ancient families in Dongzhou?"

Su Chen raised his eyebrows and said thoughtfully.

Of course, Dongzhou is so big that there is more than one family named Yao. However, since this old man is at the eighth level of the Lingtai Realm, it is impossible for him to come from that little-known family, so the Yao family, one of the eight ancient aristocratic families, is the most likely.

"I didn't expect that Prince Rui and the Lin family would be involved with the Yao family?"

Su Chen pondered and tapped his knuckles on the token unconsciously. This was interesting.

You must know that the royal family of the Yunyuan Empire is a branch of the Liu family, another of the eight ancient aristocratic families. In other words, the Liu family is equivalent to the backstage of the Yunyuan royal family.

The Liu family has always been at odds with the Yao family, and there are often frictions between the two parties.

Therefore, logically speaking, this Yao family should not appear on the land of Yunyuan Empire at all.

If Prince Rui really colludes with the Yao family, this matter will be very intriguing.

To put it more seriously, Prince Rui is tantamount to betraying the Yunyuan royal family.

"It seems that this old man from the Yao family is very confident and thinks he can definitely kill me. He even carries something like a token that reveals his identity with him casually."

Su Chen smiled. Normally, the eighth level of the Lingtai Realm might indeed pose a great threat to his life. But who would have thought that Gu Qianyin would suddenly burst out with power at a critical moment?

"Prince Rui didn't take action himself and asked the Yao family to kill me. He probably thought that as long as this was done, everything would be fine.
