Ultimate Supreme Soldier King

Chapter 1476 1471: Researching Blood Blade [Third Update]

"This time I'm here to ask for your help with something else, unrelated to that skull," Su Chen said."Oh? Then what for?" Wendi asked curiously.

"It's this." Su Chen finally took out the 'Blood Blade'.

The Blood Blade was small and exquisite, with the entire thing, including the hilt, measuring no more than thirty-five centimeters in length, the hilt taking up only five centimeters, and the blade a full thirty centimeters.

Extremely thin, with no noticeable blood grooves on either side, yet it seemed to possess a kind of magic power inexplicable to anyone, as a simple swipe across human skin would cause unceasing bleeding.

Su Chen had conducted many experiments before coming, as long as a cut was made on a person, this wound couldn't be healed by conventional means.

However, to let Wendi see the effect of the 'Blood Blade' more directly, Su Chen gently made a three-centimeter cut on Wendi's arm.

Blood immediately gushed out profusely, virtually unstoppable.

Wendi frowned, clutching her wounded arm while rummaging through the laboratory.

She had a myriad of peculiar items here.

Nonetheless, after trying for quite a while, the wound still couldn't be stopped from bleeding.

This piqued her interest in the 'Blood Blade' even more: "What an intriguing thing, haha, quite fascinating." She toyed with the 'Blood Blade', her eyes sparkling with excitement, much like her interest when developing 'Potential Tea'.

"Let's stop the bleeding first; I'm afraid you'll bleed to death before you find a solution,"

Su Chen then took out a bottle, gently dripped a drop of red liquid onto Wendi's wound.

In an instant, her wound stopped bleeding.

This scene sparked even more interest in Wendi.

"What is this stuff?"

"Nothing much. There's something else about this sword; I have a friend whose chest was pierced by it. Although I've stopped the bleeding, I couldn't remove the elements left in his body by the sword that caused him to fall into a coma, so I'd like you to crack that."

The small bottle Su Chen held naturally contained his own blood, but he dared not tell Wendi.

Otherwise, Wendi might tie him up and conduct a dissection and study as a major experiment.

"Oh, leave that thing with me, I'll study it, and I'll inform Gu Niwei'er when I've got results." Wendi took the bottle from Su Chen with interest.

Clearly, she was now more intrigued by Su Chen's blood than the 'Blood Blade'.

Su Chen's lips moved slightly, wanting to emphasize something, but seeing Wendi's demeanor, he chose to give up.

This kind of thing is hard to persuade; hoping Wendi can find something in her research.

After gaining the 'Blood Blade' and Su Chen's blood, Wendi had no intention of keeping guests.

Su Chen and Gu Niwei'er didn't linger either, and directly left Wendi's residence.

Gu Niwei'er currently presides over 'Heavenly', and with Su Chen, the 'Bronze Warrior Xing Tian', supporting her, the group under Heavenly can no longer stir up any waves as all oppositions have been dealt with.

In other words, Heavenly is basically a one-woman show under Gu Niwei'er now.

Therefore, although Su Chen took quite a bit of money from Gu Niwei'er, she was in no hurry to urge him to return it because this money was indeed collected from various families within Heavenly, yet no one dared demand repayment from this 'Queen'.

"Little man, next time you come to ask for money, I won't oblige." Gu Niwei'er seemed to pout jealously.

"I'll pay you back," Su Chen said.

Although Su Chen couldn't come up with the money in the short term, he did not plan to default, for despite Gu Niwei'er being his woman, business is business, and Su Chen insisted that he's not a freeloader!

Gu Niwei'er shot Su Chen a glance, obviously dissatisfied with his 'straightforward' response.

"Such a downer, you play by yourself, I'm leaving."

Gu Niwei'er sent Su Chen back to Jiangdu, then instantly disappeared without a shadow.

Su Chen felt a bit frustrated—recently, he had encountered nothing but troubles, especially the Lin family's matter, which both surprised and stunned him, particularly when he learned about the relationship between him and Lin Xi, and the situation of that hundred-billion-dollar betrothal gift.

His feelings towards Lin Xi grew increasingly complicated.

Affection? Perhaps?

But there was a tinge of resentment in his heart.

Just like Lin Xi before, whenever she interacted with Su Chen, there was always a degree of resistance.

Su Chen was a proud person, something perhaps not apparent in usual times, but how could this man who thrived in the Dark World easily commit to one woman, especially one who initially didn't take an interest in him?

If Su Chen weren't a proud person, he might have already made a move that would endanger that beautiful jade-like woman the moment Lin Xi said: "You can exercise your rights, but I don't guarantee cooperation."

Now that he knew the 'truth', he found himself even more tangled with indescribable thoughts.

If he were sold for a hundred billion, would he accept a stranger? Hmm… if they're beautiful, perhaps it's not too hard to accept?

Su Chen chuckled at himself, taking things one step at a time, waiting until Lin Xi wakes up before discussing further.

Additionally, Su Chen was unsure of how to face Lin Xi since Lin's father's life was in jeopardy, bearing some of his responsibility. If Lin's father remains 'unconscious forever', even if Lin Xi doesn't kill him, she'll likely distance herself from him; after all, in the face of kinship, love seems insignificant.

Moreover, when reflecting on this relationship, is there even love?

Su Chen briefly plunged into the maze he wove for himself.

...

"Buzz..." Su Chen's phone, set to silent mode, began to vibrate, pulling him from his hollow reverie back to reality.

Looking down at the number, yep, out of town, unknown.

Su Chen decisively hung up, guessing it was another junk advertising call.

At Imperial Capital Airport, a group of foreigners, among them, a well-learned and imposing-looking middle-aged man looked at the phone in annoyance, shrugged at those around him: "That stubborn kid hung up on me again."

"Hey old buddy, shouldn't you use a Huaxia phone to call him, right?"

"True, how did I forget that? I'll call him again."

...

"Buzz..."

Just after hanging up, Su Chen's phone rang again.

But this time, Su Chen didn't hang up.

Once connected, the voice on the other end, Cruise, seemed afraid Su Chen might cut the call short, quickly introduced himself: "Su, it's me, hey, it's Cruise. Do you remember me?"

"Cruise?" Su Chen's mind immediately conjured his image; he remembered Cruise calling him not long ago, but with recent affairs too hectic, it slipped his mind.
