Apocalypse: My Apartment Has Traits - Chapter 116 - 105: Recovery and Seizing Power! (4K Combined)_2
Chapter 116: Chapter 105: Recovery and Seizing Power! (4K Combined)_2
Not long after, Su Qi came downstairs, swept his gaze around, and nodded in greeting.
Though Liu Jun was confident that the Snakehead Ground Daisy could neutralize the poison of the Six-winged Celestial Poison Centipede, his heart remained anxious until everything was settled.
Sitting beside the Eight Immortals Table, the group didn’t speak or chat idly, all quietly waiting for the outcome.
According to Liu Jun and Su Qi’s calculations, from yesterday afternoon to now, the time was nearly up.
The sun gradually rose.
From seven in the morning, the few waited until eight or nine.
Suddenly, a thunderous laugh erupted from upstairs!
The people downstairs exchanged glances, joy appearing quickly on their faces.
Su Can appeared at the top of the stairs, vigorous and lively, his face radiant, his tiger-like eyes shining with spirit!
“Succeeded! The shackles on this old body are completely removed!!”
A heavy weight lifted from Su Lin’s heart, and he quickly joined other elders in welcoming Old Su.
Zhao Yaxin and Su Tongxi hurriedly brought their children over to celebrate.
The cloud shrouding the Su Family for a year finally dispersed at this moment!
Su Can was overwhelmed with excitement, yet remembered to praise his grandson.
He gazed with comfort at Su Lin, who had now become capable, saying:
“It’s all thanks to you.”
Su Lin chuckled foolishly: “Grandpa is just very lucky.”
“Haha!” Su Can laughed heartily, grabbing him by the shoulder.
At this moment, Su Qi, after the initial relaxation, restrained the smile from the corner of his mouth and said:
“Old Master, it’s time to settle scores.”
Su Can stopped laughing upon hearing this, a cold glint flashing in his eyes:
“Indeed, I was too soft-hearted before, thinking that as outsiders, we shouldn’t kill after taking their land, which led to clowns jumping around once we lost power!”
He heavily patted Su Lin’s shoulder, his voice as loud as a bell:
“Let’s go! Let you witness your grandfather in his full glory!!”
Liu Jun and Zheng Weimin exchanged a glance, both seeing the excitement in each other’s eyes.
The message spread like the wind.
The second team quickly mobilized.
Soon, the village became restless.
Except for maintaining the same number in the patrol team, all other resting second-team members were hurriedly called to assemble.
On the second day of trading, there weren’t many outsiders in the village.
The villagers were all alerted.
Seeing the second hunting team gather in large numbers, they were secretly astonished.
Soon.
Su Can, dressed neatly, led a mighty regiment toward Zhong Wubin’s safe house.
“Hiss————!”
In an instant, everyone understood the plan and gasped in shock!
The Su Family! They’re actually going to hold Zhong Wubin accountable!!
And they’re taking the entire second hunting team with them!
Unless one is foolish.
Seeing this formation, they could understand the Su Family’s intentions; it’s far more than just holding someone accountable!
This is clearly—
A power grab!!
The first hunting team members in the village felt apprehensive upon witnessing this.
The message of the Su Family holding Zhong Wubin accountable and planning a power grab spread like wildfire through the village and swiftly reached surrounding villages.
The news caused a sensation wherever it reached.
Behind the second team, the gathering crowd grew larger.
The entire village, in an instant, was empty!
Such a group, headed distinctly toward Zhong Wubin’s home, without any disguise of their purpose.
Walking at the front of the group, Su Can strode with the vigor of a dragon and tiger, full of vitality, his demeanor evidently different from before, his every movement exuding confidence.
The audience gathered from all directions like a market, but Su Can paid no heed and continued without stopping.
Until, reaching the Zhong Family residence.
Su Can stood at the forefront, gazing at the safe house, his heart calm.
Whether joy or sorrow, the past, at this moment in Su Can’s heart, felt inconsequential.
He never expected things would reach this stage.
The old master’s heart held a fierce tiger, yet beneath it lay a sense of loyalty, much like the chivalrous guests in martial arts novels.
Once settling here and seizing power, the village united its strength to support his breakthrough to the first transformation, but he didn’t succeed, failing everyone’s expectations.
Su Can felt guilty about this.
Thus, when relinquishing the position, he did so without hesitation, cleanly and decisively.
But Zhong Wubin, like mud that couldn’t hold firm, took over the position, hesitating at every front, strong on the outside but weak within, only engaging in internal bickering, and even for selfish gains, attempted cooperation with Black Scale Village.
At this moment, Su Can didn’t even know Zhong Wubin’s ultimate goal was to merge the two villages…
But regardless.
The power transition in Wuyin Village is about to happen again.
“Zhong Wubin! Come out to face me!”
Su Can’s roar was like a tiger’s roar echoing through the forest, his aura exploding with a force akin to a mighty army!
The surrounding crowd took one look, their eyes widened, and their hearts shook dramatically.
Old Su’s aura!?
Martial Artists observe people by their Qi and Blood.
Even those who don’t understand “Observation” can discern a person’s state from the full blast of their Qi and Blood.
And Su Can’s display was an utter reveal of his condition!
“Old Master’s poison… was cured!?”
The crowd’s hearts burst like a spring thunder, stirring a huge wave.
Inside and outside the village, regardless of any forces, upon guessing this matter, there was unanimous brain blankness!
The heavens are changing!
“Zhong Wubin!! Come out!!”
Old Master shouted again, roar echoing, finally waking the stunned crowd.
The Zhong Family courtyard was bustling, yet under Su Can’s shouting, it was deadly silent.
No one responded.
Another shout.
Three roars of a tiger, let alone the Zhong Family, probably the village entrance heard it clear as day.
Yet no one responded.
Su Lin raised an eyebrow, sensing something amiss.
Su Qi glanced at the various mechanisms of Zhong Family’s safe house, withdrawing the Great Sword:
“Linzi, come with me to take a look, be careful of Zhong Wubin acting like a cornered dog and directly activating the mechanisms.”
The mechanisms in the safe house aren’t just for defending against the Shadow Beasts at night.
Uncle and nephew armed themselves and moved forward.
Under everyone’s watch, the two arrived at the entrance, without a hint of obstruction.
The nightly running mechanism was now utterly motionless.
Su Lin exchanged a glance with his uncle, and they pushed hard against the door, finding it unlocked and opened with a push.
The Zhong Family hall instantly appeared before everyone’s eyes.
Empty!
The crowd was stunned.
Where are the people?
The people vanished!
For a house like the Zhong Family’s, even if Zhong Wubin was absent, there would be his tenants to watch over the house.
But at this moment, not a single person was seen in the Zhong Family!
Su Can frowned deeply, stepping over the threshold.
The hunting group members weren’t polite, pouring in together.
The remaining villagers, along with outsiders, waited outside.
They looked at each other, feeling extremely strange.
A while later.
Someone came out and shouted.
“Zhong Wubin ran away!!”
The shout was like a giant stone cast into the lake, instantly stirring a wave.
An uproar filled the scene!
“Ran, ran away, what does that mean?”
“Zhong Wubin ran away? Bolted? Even abandoned the safe house and ran?!”
“Why! What did he run for?”
“Most likely he knew Old Master’s recovery, feared retribution, so ran away?”
Not just the crowd outside devouring the spectacle, even Su Lin was baffled at this moment.
“Is Zhong’s courage so small? As soon as he heard the wind, fled overnight with the entire household?”
Hearing this, Su Qi turned to look at him, eyes filled with complexity:
“Probably scared by you.”
“Scared by me?” Su Lin pointed at himself, puzzled.
Su Qi amusedly lightly tapped his forehead:
“Don’t forget, if Black Scale Village and he are in cahoots, then in the matter of Chang Family’s annihilation, he’s pinned the blame on our Su Family from the beginning.”
Su Lin was immediately speechless.
So, fearing he’d obliterate them.
But indeed, Su Lin planned to eliminate Zhong Wubin.
Originally, Su Lin hadn’t thought of sparing Zhong Wubin a route to survival.
Just didn’t expect this coward to have some mettle, upon sighting unfavorable trends, fled directly, abandoning even the safe house.
Su Can, disinterestedly walking over, shook his head and said:
“From what I know of this shorty, he likely anticipated this step long ago. Truly…”
Imagining the village leader seat left to such a person, he felt as reviled as a burning stone.
Liu Jun, however, came smiling, his face like a blooming chrysanthemum:
“Alright, alright, since he ran off, you can naturally take back the head position, leading Wuyin Village once more as our leader.”
