King of Assassins

Chapter 272 Treasure



Su Lingyi is a middle-aged woman, with average looks, a gentle and soft demeanor, yet very dignified. She resembles a kind teacher or a doctor.

Those unfamiliar with her often form this mistaken impression.

In reality, she is the Celestial Zither Sword Saint Su Lingyi, one of the only three Golden Sword Saints in the Sea Emperor Star Realm.

Given Su Lingyi's status, she certainly doesn't need to come to greet Hercules.

It's just that she and Pan are close friends, and she's also Helen's teacher. This time, she happened to be here, so she came along with Pan.

Su Lingyi just wanted to see what kind of person Gao Xuan is! He was actually able to kill a Golden Sword Saint with the skill of a Silver Sword Hero!

Such a thing has never been heard of in a millennium.

Su Lingyi also watched some related videos, but it's difficult to make an accurate judgment.

A strong curiosity led her to join in the commotion. After all, she is also quite familiar with Hercules, so there won't be any situation of losing face.

But one sudden sentence from Pan surprised Su Lingyi greatly.

Pan is arrogant and a bit sharp-tongued, yet she is very knowledgeable. She has great achievements in cultural and artistic fields and is very hospitable and generous as a hostess.

Overall, she is a very qualified friend on equal terms.

Su Lingyi couldn't quite understand Pan's thinking, Hercules bringing Gao Xuan back openly actually means he acknowledges the relationship between Gao Xuan and Helen.

Pan, however, wants to kill Gao Xuan, isn't that like slapping Hercules in the face?

In this marriage, it's obvious that Hercules is more dominant. Pan has a lot of thoughts and her own power. But openly opposing Hercules is not very wise.

Could it be for her nephew Parit?

Su Lingyi saw Parit behind Hercules, this handsome young man looked dejected and his eyes were vacant, as if his soul was lost.

Su Lingyi felt a bit sorry for this young man. Parit is indeed handsome, but compared to the radiant, star-like Gao Xuan, he pales so much.

In fact, Parit standing next to Gao Xuan was just a human backdrop. No one would notice him.

Not to mention Parit, even the majestic Hercules looked somewhat overshadowed beside Gao Xuan.

Even if Gao Xuan stood behind him, he still became the focus of all attention in the room.

Such an outstanding young man and Helen are simply a natural pair.

Pan still wants to stop them from being together, it's simply a crime.

Su Lingyi is a close friend to Pan, but just a close friend. She wouldn't offend Hercules for Pan, nor is she interested in killing Gao Xuan.

Killing such a handsome young man is simply a crime.

She said, "Sorry, I can't help you with this matter."

Pan's face slightly changed but she didn't speak further. Su Lingyi's transcendent status made it so she couldn't do anything to the other party.

It's just that she had spent so many years making efforts to befriend the other side, and as a result, Su Lingyi didn't even consider helping her and directly refused in a crucial moment.

This made Pan somewhat annoyed. She had put her heart into her relationship with Su Lingyi, even with a touch of flattery. She worked hard for decades, only to end up with this result.

She angrily thought: Golden Sword Saints are really selfish guys. Hercules is like this, Wei Yue is like this, and so is Su Lingyi.

In crucial moments, no one is reliable.

Pan deeply regretted not working hard when she was younger; now she is just a Silver Sword Hero.

Even if she wants to kill Gao Xuan, she is powerless.

She took Hercules' hand with a cold face, not even looking directly at Gao Xuan, and even less at Helen.

This extremely beautiful daughter has been disobedient since she was little. It was because Hercules was too indulgent, resulting in her now being willful and unruly.

Because of Pan's coldness, the welcoming ceremony on site became a little awkward.

Hercules also skipped the introduction of Gao Xuan part and hurriedly took Pan into his luxury car.

The spacious car cabin felt like a small parlor, with more than twenty square meters.

It not only had sofas and a tea table, but also various artworks arranged around.

Hercules lay lazily on the sofa, asking his wife puzzledly, "What's wrong with you?"

Pan said coldly, "What are you doing, trying to make Helen marry that lowly person?"

"Gao Xuan will surely become a Golden Sword Saint in the future. That status is good enough for Helen."

Hercules said, "He has no family background. Marrying Helen means he can only serve our family."

"Then in the future, the Golden Bloodline will be tainted, and the Sea Emperor Star Realm will bear the Gao surname. Are you willing to see such a scenario?"

Pan indignantly questioned.

Hercules slightly frowned, "Gao Xuan marrying Helen makes him family to us. I already said he has no family background. By himself, he can't support a Noble Family. He can only serve us. The Sea Emperor Star Realm belongs to the Golden Bloodline forever..."

Hercules thought for a moment and said, "Your nephew, Parit, is too incompetent. He's not qualified to marry Helen. You should give up that thought."

Pan's face turned exceptionally ugly.

Having Parit marry Helen had always been her biggest wish. As long as he married Helen, their family would continue to be the masters of the Sea Emperor Star Realm.

Helen went out for a spin and found a lowly suitor, disrupting her plans, which is something she absolutely could not tolerate.

She and Hercules are a family, but their interests do not entirely align.

Seizing Helen is seizing the future inheritance of the Sea Emperor Star Realm. Her thoughts on this matter differ from Hercules's.

It's just a pity Parit is too inept, really hopeless.

Pan thought for a moment and said, "There's an exceptionally outstanding nephew in my sister's family, Talos, who is about to become a Golden Powerhouse."

Pan reminded Hercules, "Talos has Zeus's pure Golden Bloodline; he is the one qualified to be Helen's husband."
