Chapter 405: Ambush in the Night
"In this world, are there really Corpse Flowers that are grown using human corpses as nutrients?" Tang Yi's face gradually became solemn.
He knew that finding Corpse Flowers was an extremely slim possibility.
Almost impossible.
"Yes!"
However, Su Chen affirmed confidently: "It's nearly impossible to find natural Corpse Flowers, but those cultivated by people aren't uncommon."
Upon hearing Su Chen's words, Tang Yi's face changed dramatically.
Cultivated by people?
Doesn't that mean using human corpses to nourish flowers?
Although Tang Yi is a reserve member of the Dragon Team,
There are still many things in this world that she doesn't understand.
As a member of the Reverse Dragon, Su Chen's knowledge was far more extensive than Tang Yi's.
The artificially cultivated Titan Arum does exist, and not in small numbers.
Why did Su Chen know there were so many artificially cultivated Titan Arum?
The reason was simple, because one of the indispensable ingredients in the Omega Potion used by the Reverse Dragon Group was the Titan Arum.
The Omega Potion was not exclusive to the Reverse Dragon Group.
It originated from a mysterious power.
Although it's expensive, because of its excellent effects, many organizations are willing to spend a lot of money to stock some.
Since there is plenty of the Omega Potion, obviously, Titan Arum Flowers, as an important ingredient of the Omega Potion, must be abundant as well.
Natural Titan Arum is something encountered by chance, which many years ago, might have been possible to come across occasionally.
But now, they've practically gone extinct.
Without natural ones, artificial cultivation is naturally the only option.
"Then, how can we obtain Corpse Flowers?" Tang Yi looked nervously towards Su Chen.
Afraid that Su Chen would suddenly say that even he didn't know.
"You're asking me? Actually, it should be me asking you," Su Chen suddenly let out a hee-hee laugh.
"Asking me?" Tang Yi was completely puzzled.
"Correct, as such a useful thing, do you think our Huaxia wouldn't have any? Of course, ordinary people can't possibly get it, but if it's those people..." Su Chen didn't finish his sentence.
He believed Tang Yi would understand.
Artificially cultivated Titan Arum, there are people outside our country who cultivate it, and of course, so do people in our country.
However, not everyone can afford to cultivate such things.
Because each mature Titan Arum signifies the consumption of many corpses.
And human corpses aren't so easy to come by.
"I understand!" Tang Yi nodded her head.
"Mm, if you can find a Titan Arum, then come find me. I'm confident that I can extend the old man's life by more than ten years!"
Ten years!
For an elderly person, let alone ten years, even an extension of one year would be a blessing.
Because one year is not enough for Tang Yi to grow to the extent of qualifying to enter the Dragon Team.
But for two years, he believed Tang Yi would certainly be able to do it.
"Then, thank you in advance, young brother." The elderly man nodded, but he didn't hold much hope.
If Tang Yi could understand where to get Titan Arum flowers from Su Chen's words, he could understand as well.
Most likely, such a thing, even if it existed, would definitely be an extraordinary rarity.
To obtain it, a substantial price would certainly need to be paid.
Some prices he was willing to pay, and some he would never be willing to pay, no matter what.
But that was a story for another time.
After saying farewell to the elderly man, Su Chen prepared to head straight home.
He asked Lin Shuang'er if she wanted to go back with him, but the little girl's head shook even more vehemently.
Using her words, what was there to do when going back?
To let Su Chen and Lin Xi publicly display their affection?
And with Lin Xi around, there were so many do's and don'ts, even eating was a bother.
Since the little wretch didn't want to go, Su Chen was naturally happy to be free of hassle.
But this guy actually wanted to take the Nishijiu Katana with her.
Su Chen didn't agree.
After all, that item was a controlled weapon, and ordinary people are not allowed to carry it.
Furthermore, he always felt that having this object wasn't a good thing.
Sure enough, Su Chen's guess was correct.
Nishijiu had a reason for leaving her sword with him.
Su Chen had not yet returned to the villa when he felt someone was tailing him.
So he immediately changed his route, moving away from the direction of the villa.
Only when he reached a sparsely populated area did Su Chen stop.
He said towards the dense Nightfall: "Come out."
As soon as he finished speaking, a familiar voice sounded.
"Mr. Su, you indeed have guts. Knowing that we are tracking you, you still dare to come to such a desolate place." A figure all wrapped in a black night suit slowly emerged from the Nightfall.
Although the face was also covered with black cloth, the person did not attempt to disguise their voice.
So, Su Chen immediately recognized the voice. It was Nishijiu's.
Seven figures stood behind her, each dressed just like her.
Those seven people stood there, like withered trees blending into the night.
If one didn't look carefully, it would be impossible to detect their presence.
Without thinking, one would know they were masters among masters.
Su Chen narrowed his eyes and said: "Nishijiu, do we have any feud between us? Is it necessary for you to make such elaborate efforts to kill me?"
"Hehe, you've forgotten, indeed you've forgotten!" Nishijiu suddenly became somewhat frantic.
"Forgotten what?" Su Chen became even more confused.
Could it be that this woman really knew him?
"Kill him for me!" Unfortunately, Nishijiu had no intention of telling him, directly addressing her followers in black.
Seven black-garbed men, each holding a Dongyin Samurai Sword, formed an array and encircled to kill Su Chen.
These people were like phantoms; their footsteps on the ground were virtually silent.
Su Chen did not dare to be careless; although the individual strength of these people was far below his, the combination of the seven made him take them seriously.
But he did not retreat; instead, he met the seven Samurai with Nishijiu's Katana.
Su Chen's guess was not wrong; these seven Samurai were extremely skilled in cooperative combat.
Together, they significantly boosted their combat power by one or two levels.
They were fully capable of besieging a powerful individual a realm higher than them.
Cling clang!
The sound of katana clashing was particularly crisp and pleasant in the night sky.
Facing a besiegement by seven people, Su Chen wasn't trapped.
But if he wanted to break free, he would have to kill. Even if it didn't result in death, someone would surely get hurt.
Although he despised the Dongyin people, he wouldn't wantonly slaughter them.
If he did that, what difference would there be between him and those brutal Dongyin people?
"Nishijiu, order your men to stand down immediately, or I won't be polite anymore!" Faced with seven deadly strikes, a trace of anger also emerged on Su Chen's face.
