Chapter 316: “Protagonist” Wang Que! Shengzi Su Will Seek Revenge for Every Grievance!
Leaving the interrogation room, Bai Zhi’s face was gloomy, as if he could wring out water.
“This is going too far!”
He had thought that by offering the Spirit Stones and saying a few kind words, everything would be settled.
But unexpectedly, Su Shi’s attitude remained so low, refusing to let things go. He actually demanded that Bai Zhi fight the ferocious beasts in the arena.
Bang!
Bai Zhi punched the nearby wall, creating a deep pit!
The elder of the Eagle Clan fell silent.
They had heard about Su Shi’s ruthless methods and his vow to take revenge for even the slightest offense, but they never expected him to be so unyielding!
“Young master, do you really have to go personally?” The elder spoke cautiously.
As the direct heir of the Eagle Clan, Bai Zhi’s status was highly sensitive. If he were to fight ferocious beasts in front of everyone, it would be a great disgrace for the entire clan!
Gritting his teeth, Bai Zhi replied, “Do you think I want to? But look at Su Shi’s appearance; he clearly has no intention of letting this go!”
“If we offend him… You should be aware of the consequences,” the elder understood his meaning.
The Tiger Clan was a cautionary example. With the Demon Empress of the Netherworld, a single wave of her hand could wipe out an entire clan.
Even though the Eagle Clan was stronger than the Tiger Clan, they still wouldn’t want to provoke such a formidable enemy for no reason.
Moreover, the relationship between the Barbarian clans and Linlang was currently relatively stable, and no one wanted to be the one to cause trouble.
“There have been people in the clan who have had issues with me for a long time.”
“If they catch any handle on me, the consequences won’t just be a loss of face.”
Bai Zhi knew that if he truly offended the Netherworld Sect, he might be treated as a discarded son. Losing face was one thing, but losing his life was another. He was well aware of which was more important.
Thinking about this, Bai Zhi harbored a hidden resentment. Xing Ke knew Su Shi’s identity all along but never told me, watching me jump into the fire pit. “Xing Ke, you just wait for me! This isn’t over!”
Bai Zhi gritted his teeth.
However, the immediate priority was to resolve the situation at hand.
“Go and prepare the ferocious beasts.”
“Yes,” the elder nodded, turning to walk towards the cell where the beasts were held.
Bai Zhi furrowed his brow. “But what is the relationship between that Dog Clan youth and Su Shi?”
“Could it be that even those mongrels are also involved?” Bai Zhi shook his head.
In any case, he had decided to keep his distance from the Dog Clan in the future. Taking a deep breath, he exhaled and disappeared into the dark corridor.
In the interrogation room, the air was still.
Xing Ke, standing in the corner, swallowed nervously.
Make Bai Zhi fight the ferocious beasts in the arena?
That would be a huge disgrace for the entire Eagle Clan!
Su Shi’s methods were truly ruthless!
Su Shi said calmly, “The competition is about to begin. Won’t the young master go and cheer for Bai Zhi?”
“Sure, I’ll go now.” Xing Ke snapped back to his senses.
Without wasting a moment, he hurriedly left the interrogation room.
In his heart, he felt somewhat lucky. Fortunately, he didn’t get dragged into Bai Zhi’s troubles, or else he would have lost face himself!
But offending the Eagle Clan wasn’t a good idea either.
So for the upcoming competition, Xing Ke had no intention of participating.
After leaving the interrogation room, he went straight to the exit.
He had to get away from this troublesome place as soon as possible!
After Xing Ke left, Yu Ren’er asked softly, “Brother Su Shi, isn’t this a bit too harsh? I’m afraid Bai Zhi will seek revenge when there is an opportunity…” As she spoke, she glanced at Wang Que.
The Fox Clan is naturally not afraid, but it’s different for the Dog Clan. If Bai Zhi vents his anger, not only will Wang Que suffer, but the entire clan will suffer as well!
Su Shi shook his head and said, “People like Bai Zhi, the more you give him face, the less he respects you. Only by being strong and dominant will he behave.”
Only by keeping Bai Zhi uncertain about his relationship with the Dog Clan would he hesitate to take action.
Yu Ren’er nodded in understanding.
At that moment, Wang Que knelt before Su Shi with a “thump.”
“I thank Shengzi Su for saving my life. Otherwise, I would have died today!”
Wang Que’s expression was sincere. Although he didn’t understand why Su Shi helped him, he was filled with gratitude.
Suruoshi shrugged indifferently, “You helped me win a considerable amount of Spirit Stones, so let’s call it even between us.”
Wang Que shook his head, “To me, Shengzi Su’s grace is beyond measure in Spirit Stones.”
“I’ll keep this favor in my heart. If you ever need my help, no matter the danger or difficulty, I won’t hesitate to face it.”
Looking at the resolute gaze of the Dog Clan youth, Su Shi fell silent for a moment, then sighed, “Fine, since you also provided me with a lot of plot points, I’ll give you a parting gift.”
Taking out a piece of golden Essence Stone, he tossed it to Wang Que.
Wang Que hurriedly caught it.
Looking at the dazzling golden Spirit Stone, he asked in confusion, “Shengzi Su, what is this for?”
Su Shi said, “You can’t stay in Kodo City anymore, and your clan is not safe either. Go as far away as you can and hide…”
The Wolf Clan person is already dead, and Bai Zhi probably won’t let this go easily. But the commotion today was too significant. Wang Que made many people lose money, and those gamblers probably won’t let him off easily.
Wang Que’s mind quickly grasped the situation. He handed the Essence Stone to Su Shi and shook his head, “Shengzi Su has already saved my life; I can’t take anything more from you.”
Su Shi replied casually, “It’s just a piece of Essence Stone, consider it my investment. It will be repaid with interest in the future, so you don’t need to have any psychological burden.”
Wang Que hesitated and asked, “How does Shengzi Su know that I can repay it?”
Su Shi smiled and said, “I trust my judgment.”
Wang Que was the protagonist, carrying his own unique destiny. However, in the original plot, there was no such name, and Su Shi couldn’t predict what the future held for him.
Wang Que was stunned. He never expected that this high and mighty genius, shining like a golden crow, would be willing to believe in a humble person like him, standing in the mud.
For the first time, he felt someone looking at him with such equal respect. Suruoshi not only saved his life but also restored his dignity.
Wang Que didn’t say anything else. He put away the Essence Stone and then knocked his head three times with a “thump.”
When he raised his head, his forehead was already red.
“Shengzi Su, we will definitely meet again.”
Saying that, he directly stood up and left the interrogation room.
Watching Wang Que’s figure, Yu She seemed thoughtful and whispered, “That Dog Clan youth is quite interesting…”
At the same time, a prompt sound rang in Su Shi’s ears:
【Wang Que made a significant decision, affecting the development of the plot, and gained 15 plot points.】
【Wang Que’s destiny has changed, affecting the development of the plot, and gained 20 plot points.】
Su Shi’s eyes flickered.
“So many plot points?”
“It seems that Wang Que is indeed the ‘protagonist.’ In just two encounters, he has given me 55 plot points. This is not a small number.”
At that moment, Yu Ren’er asked, “Brother Su Shi, what do we do now?”
Su Shi snapped out of his thoughts, smiling, “Of course, we’ll go back to watch the competition. We still need to cheer for Bai Zhi.”
Seeing his gleaming white teeth, Yu She couldn’t help but shiver. She quickly tried to recall whether she had offended him just now…
