Qing Bukuang couldn't believe it and decided to try again.
No matter how he swung his sword, the result was the same—it was always blocked.
"Hmph, I'll get serious now."
Qing Bukuang's expression and aura shifted, and then he saw Su Luo silently draw his sword.
Qing Bukuang then sheathed his own sword.
It wasn't because he was scared, but because the Demon Lord had warned him not to escalate conflicts. He had to stop here.
What was there to fear about Su Luo drawing his sword?
Qing Bukuang returned to his normal self and said calmly, "Su Luo, you've hidden yourself well."
He had never heard of Su Luo having such skilled subordinates. He had always thought Su Luo's followers were a bunch of misfits.
Qing Bukuang stopped, but Su Luo had no intention of doing so.
"You didn't think sheathing your sword would make this disappear, did you?"
Su Luo's sword came crashing down, and the blade couldn't withstand his strength, shattering into pieces.
A powerful sword qi surged toward Qing Bukuang.
Qing Bukuang unleashed a storm of attacks, trying to dissipate the qi.
However, the sword qi showed no signs of weakening, engulfing Qing Bukuang like a tidal wave.
"Let's go, Little Yu."
Su Luo didn't bother looking at Qing Bukuang anymore. He wouldn't die, but standing up today would be difficult.
Originally, Su Luo hadn't wanted to target Qing Bukuang, considering how close he was to death.
But since Qing Bukuang had struck first, Su Luo couldn't be blamed.
"Su Luo, I want to learn that move you just did," Little Yu said, her eyes sparkling with admiration.
"Uh, that wasn't really a move. I just used too much force and didn't bother controlling it, which caused the sword to break. Even if I had controlled it, the sword would only last a few more swings."
It was just ordinary sword qi, but as they say, brute force can work miracles. That's all there was to it.
"Su Luo's strength is truly a mystery," Little Yu said. She had known Su Luo was strong for a long time but never had a clear idea of just how strong.
"Right? I feel like I'm terrifyingly strong, absolutely invincible!"
"Yeah, Su Luo is invincible!" Little Yu chimed in, cheering him on.
The people around them thought these two were daydreaming, their confidence bordering on delusion.
Su Luo felt a bit embarrassed. It was one thing to boast about himself, but having Little Yu sincerely praise him like this was a bit too much to handle.
Su Luo was a humble person.
"You're not bad either. Your future achievements might even surpass mine!"
Su Luo started engaging in some mutual flattery.
"Can I really do that?"
"Definitely."
"If Su Luo says so, then it must be true." Little Yu's eyes burned with determination, and she vowed to keep working hard.
Su Luo and Little Yu left, but the scene had been witnessed by the North End Demon Lord, and the outcome was beyond his expectations.
Logically, Qing Bukuang should have been stronger than Su Luo.
It was said that Su Luo had many treasures, but what treasure had he used just now?
From this perspective, Su Luo was also a dangerous individual.
Of course, the danger the North End Demon Lord referred to wasn't directed at himself but at Di Haoao.
So he went to find Elder Wei again.
"Old Wei, do you want some information?"
"What information? If it's not important, don't keep coming to me. Stay hidden."
"You know how it is," the North End Demon Lord said.
Elder Wei understood and handed over some precious cultivation resources.
"Now, can you talk?"
"I've discovered that Su Luo, one of the Seven Sons, is not as simple as he seems. Be careful. His strength far exceeds what it appears. Don't let your guard down and fail to protect Di Haoao."
"Is that so?"
"Anyway, I've given you the information. If you can't protect Di Haoao, don't blame me later."
"I know what I'm doing."
...
The next day, Su Luo disguised himself as a middle-aged man, looking disheveled and worn out.
Yun knew what Su Luo was up to but still asked, "What are you planning, Su Luo?"
"Hmph, it's my brilliant plan," Su Luo said, briefly explaining his scheme.
"But you're not married. Can you really pull this off?"
"I can just make it up as I go."
"Will this plan even work?"
"Just watch me."
In reality, it only had a small effect.
But Di Haoao's breakdown wasn't going to happen in an instant. It would be a gradual accumulation until it finally exploded.
"Where are you going, Su Luo?" Little Yu asked, wanting to follow him.
"Just taking care of some business. I'll be back soon."
He decided not to bring Little Yu or Yun along. They wouldn't be much help anyway.
Soon, Su Luo arrived at a small tavern in Yunzhu City, a rather secluded place.
Di Haoao was there, drowning his sorrows in alcohol.
Lately, he felt like everything was going wrong, as if the whole world was against him.
There were plenty of rumors, and even though the Tian Guang Sect had tried to clarify things, it didn't seem to help much.
He also didn't dare ask Long Xinxin who the person she had been laughing and chatting with that day was.
He had casually mentioned knowing about a few opportunities and suggested postponing the marriage to go after them first.
But Long Xinxin immediately turned hostile, firmly opposed the idea, and even tied Di Haoao up with a rope, saying he wasn't allowed to go anywhere before the wedding.
Of course, it was just a symbolic gesture, and she let him go soon after.
In short, nothing was going well.
So he came here to drown his sorrows, but the more he drank, the worse he felt.
As soon as Su Luo entered the tavern, he spotted Di Haoao.
But why was Li Siyi here too?
She was sitting at another table, quietly drinking.
What was she doing here?
Su Luo was curious but decided not to ask for now. He had to stick to the plan.
Su Luo walked straight to Di Haoao's table.
"Mind if I join you, brother?"
"Not at all."
Di Haoao didn't pay much attention and continued drinking by himself.
Su Luo sat down.
Was it just his imagination, or did Li Siyi's eyes light up when he sat down? She kept glancing over.
Had she seen through his disguise? Impossible. His disguise was perfect.
It must be a coincidence.
Su Luo continued with his act, not rushing to engage Di Haoao in conversation. When the alcohol arrived, he drank it like water.
Di Haoao watched Su Luo drinking so recklessly, even more so than himself, and grew curious. But he felt too awkward to ask.
However, since Su Luo was right there, his curiosity got the better of him. "Brother, what's wrong?"
"Nothing, don't worry about me. I'll be fine."
Su Luo played hard to get.
Since Su Luo had said that, Di Haoao didn't press further. It wasn't his place to pry.
"Wah, I'm such a failure. Life is so hard," Su Luo suddenly burst into tears, clutching his head.
Di Haoao was startled but quickly composed himself and tried to comfort Su Luo. "Brother, what's wrong? Are you okay?"
"Recently, there's been all this talk about a marriage alliance, and it reminded me of my past."
"Back then, my wife loved me deeply. She listened to everything I said and was willing to be with me even though I had nothing."
"But after we got married, she changed."
"She started looking down on me, saying I was lazy, and constantly found fault with me, making me do this and that, and restricting my freedom."
Su Luo began spinning a long, emotional tale.

ions, keeping it grounded and realistic】 After quitting his job, office worker Su Yang accidentally binds with the "Enjoy Life System."
