Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 246: Chapter 245 Azure Dragon Jade

Inside the box, there was an azure jade stone about the size of a fist, cool to the touch with a faint fluctuation of spiritual energy, on par with the Kirin Jade that Su Yang had obtained before.

Su Yang examined it carefully for a while, took a deep breath, and said in a low voice, ”Azure Dragon Jade?”

”What is that?” Qin Haishan asked in wonder.

”You don’t know what this is?” Su Yang asked in return.

Qin Haishan shook his head, ”This object has been with our family since its foundation, always kept in our possession. Over the years, it has just been preserved as a family heirloom; we didn’t know its actual use.”

Su Yang said, ”This is a piece of Azure Dragon Jade, created by the immersion of Azure Dragon’s blood, an absolutely rare and extraordinary treasure!”

”Oh?” Qin Haishan’s eyes widened, obviously shocked as well.

”This Azure Dragon Jade is too precious; I cannot accept it,” Su Yang returned the box.

Qin Haishan did not take the box, and said earnestly, ”Master Su, whether this object is precious depends on who holds it. This Azure Dragon Jade has been sitting in the Qin Family’s storeroom for a hundred years, never touched and just an object of ornamentation. However, in your hands, Master Su, it’s different—it can only be considered a rare and extraordinary treasure, truly valuable, when in your possession. So, please do take this jade stone!”

Su Yang indeed needed this Azure Dragon Jade; he needed four pieces of jade stone to form the Spirit Gathering Array. This Azure Dragon Jade was an excellent choice.

”This is Qin Family’s heirloom, are you sure you want to give it to me?” Su Yang asked.

Qin Haishan smiled and said, ”Although it is a family heirloom, such fine treasures have always belonged to those with the ability to wield them. Of course, I’m not without self-interest; by giving this jade stone to Master Su, it at least counts as a favor. My Qin Family might require Master Su’s care in the future!”

”Hahaha...” Su Yang laughed heartily, ”You really are a wise man! All right, I will accept this Azure Dragon Jade. Remember my words: if the Qin Family does nothing to defy the heavens and harm reason, and conducts all its affairs according to the rules, then you will be under my Su Yang’s protection!”

”Thank you, Master Su!” Qin Haishan hurriedly bowed.

Qin Haishan vividly remembered how Su Yang had dominated the meeting with the Ten Great Families not long ago. Without a doubt, there was no one in Pingnan Province that could hinder Su Yang’s rise to power. Forming a good relationship with a man of unlimited prospects was definitely better than an Azure Dragon Jade that could not be utilized!

”By the way, I’ve accepted your grandson as a disciple!” Su Yang said, ”If he’s free during this time, let him settle in Nanluo City first. I have some secret techniques to pass on to him!”

”Yes, thank you, Master Su!” Qin Haishan once again felt ecstatic. Although he was reluctant to part with Xiao Hei, the opportunity for him to cultivate with Su Yang was something that many dreamed of.

With Xiao Hei becoming Su Yang’s disciple, even if he learned nothing else, he still had Su Yang’s patronage. With this relationship, even the Ten Great Families would have to treat the Qin Family with due courtesy.

Qin Haishan was left to handle the affairs of Wuguang City. Su Yang did not linger there any longer, directly taking Fatty and Xiao Hei back to Nanluo City.

This trip had brought him a disciple and an Azure Dragon Jade stone, making it a trip not in vain.

Kirin Jade, Azure Dragon Jade—both pieces of Divine Beast Jade were extremely rare treasures. If Su Yang could gather two more similar Divine Beast Jade stones, he would be able to create a Spirit Gathering Array. Moreover, the effect of this Spirit Gathering Array would be far superior to ordinary jade stones!

Back home, Su Yang asked Qi’er to settle Xiao Hei in, while he himself headed to the third floor to start refining the Azure Dragon Jade.

On this trip to Wuguang City, Su Yang truly realized that there are heavens beyond heavens, and people beyond people. The strength of the man in white robes commanded respect.

Though Su Yang was now in the Integration Realm, capable of facing The Sovereign without fear, there was still a substantial gap between him and a Terrestrial Immortal of the Spirit Tranquility Realm. He would need to reach the Venerable Realm at the very least before he could challenge an Earth Immortal beyond his level.

The words spoken by Su Ping also greatly motivated Su Yang. Only by unlocking the fourth page of Destiny’s Tome could he learn more secrets. This matter couldn’t be delayed.

Two hours later, the Azure Dragon Jade was consecrated. Its power, no weaker than the Kirin Jade, had become another treasure after Su Yang’s consecration. Even when facing an Earth Immortal, it could hold its own for a while.

Stepping downstairs, Su Yang saw Xiao Hei sitting in the living room from afar. He had changed into clean clothes, looking much more put-together.

Qi’er was busy in the kitchen. She had been managing everything for Su Yang’s day-to-day life these days—though she had the Heavenly Destiny Physique, she was very capable and never complained; she was indeed good to have at home.

”Master!” Xiao Hei immediately stood up upon seeing Su Yang coming downstairs.

”Sit!” Su Yang waved his hand, indicating Xiao Hei should sit down. Looking around, he asked curiously, ”Why aren’t you watching television?”

”There’s nothing good to watch,” Xiao Hei replied, his voice steady, almost like that of a middle-aged man.

Having gone through so much, Xiao Hei had matured a lot. Moreover, after the awakening of the Heart of Slaughter, many things seemed meaningless to him.

Su Yang smiled, ”That’s fine. Since you don’t like watching TV, I’ll teach you a Secret Technique. From now on, you can cultivate using this technique daily.”

”Thank you, Master!” Xiao Hei hurriedly bowed in gratitude.

Without delay, Su Yang passed on the Asura Killing God Technique to Xiao Hei.

This technique, recorded on the second page of Destiny’s Tome, was said to have been created by the Asura King—a supreme technique used by the Asura King to slaughter his way through the Nine Heavens and earth, immensely powerful. At its peak, it could annihilate everything.

Naturally, this technique was most suited for Xiao Hei, who had Destiny’s Killer Body.

However, the Asura Killing God Technique on the second page was incomplete. When Su Yang opened the third page, he discovered that the content on the second page was just the foundation. The third page contained additional material. All the Secret Techniques Su Yang practiced, including Devouring the Heavens, were like this.

Looking at this trend, the fourth page, fifth page, and possibly even the sixth page could have continuations. However, due to Su Yang’s insufficient strength, he was unable to open the subsequent pages and thus could not see the continued content.

Xiao Hei committed the second and third page of Asura Killing God Technique to memory so thoroughly he didn’t even stop to eat, going straight to his room to cultivate.

Before long, Qi’er came out with the cooked meals, puzzled, ”Brother Su, it’s time to eat. Where’s Xiao Hei?”

”Don’t worry about him for now, let’s eat,” Su Yang said with a light smile, walking over to sit at the table.

Qi’er, unaware of what had happened, served Su Yang a bowl of rice and took a couple of bites herself before saying softly, ”Brother Su, I... May I take a couple of days off? The anniversary of my father’s death is coming up...”
