Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 256: Chapter 255 Bronze Seal Script

Su Yang watched from a distance as the crowd rushed forward and couldn’t help but snicker to himself.

These people are really foolish. The bearded man was obviously deceiving them, yet they actually believed him.

The bearded man was shouting for everyone to charge together, but in reality, he didn’t surge forward at all. Instead, he took advantage of the chaos to quietly retreat a bit.

Wang Shao kicked at the skeleton, but the anticipated result of the skeleton being knocked down did not happen. Instead, the skeleton grabbed his leg, dragged him to its mouth, and bit into his leg.

Wang Shao let out a miserable scream, struggling with all his might but unable to break free from the skeleton’s grip. Wang Shao was of Integration Realm strength, but in front of the skeleton, he was as helpless as a chick, unable to resist at all.

As for Wang Shao’s subordinates, they didn’t fare any better. Some were knocked down by the skeletons, while others retreated but did not dare to advance again, watching helplessly as Wang Shao’s leg was nearly bitten off by the skeleton.

”Save me! Save me!” Wang Shao cried out pitifully, but under such circumstances, who would help?

Meanwhile, the bearded man had taken advantage of the distraction to sneak over to the cushion. He lifted it to find a secret compartment pop open. He took out a wooden box from the compartment, his expression turning to one of excitement.

”Hey, help me out!” a young man next to him urged, not noticing the change in the situation.

”Sure!” the bearded man smiled, approached the young man, and suddenly pushed him toward the skeleton.

The skeleton had just tossed Wang Shao aside and here came another person. It grabbed the young man and bit down on his neck. The young man couldn’t resist at all and was bitten to death by the skeleton on the spot.

”What are you doing?” a few others were stunned, and Wang Shao was dumbfounded, ”You... you dare to harm my friend!?”

”Hahaha...” The bearded man laughed and looked up, ”You got it wrong, I did not just harm your friend, I also got you!”

”What do you mean?” Wang Shao’s voice trembled.

”Don’t you understand?” The bearded man waved the box in his hand, ”With such a treasure, do you think I would give it to you? If it wasn’t for you drawing away the skeleton, how would I have obtained this treasure?”

”You... You actually used us!” Wang Shao roared in anger, ”Do you know the consequences of offending the Wang Family?!”

”What can the Wang Family do to me!” The bearded man no longer concealed his aura. His presence soared suddenly, not at all inferior to Wang Shao’s, revealing that he too was a powerhouse of the Integration Realm.

”Once I have this treasure, I will soon become a Sovereign. By then, even if Wang Wanli himself comes for me, I shall not fear him!” the bearded man sneered.

”You... You are so despicable...” Wang Shao trembled all over with rage.

”Only now do you realize? Do you not think it’s too late?” the bearded man said with a smug laugh, ”Did you really think that just by calling you Wang Shao, you could lord over me? That’s right, I used you, so what? Eldest Young Master of the Wang Family of Pingnan Province, the best among the wastrels, have you not ended up as a stepping stone for me?”

Wang Shao roared furiously but was helpless to do anything about it. Behind him, the skeleton had finished off his friend and was slowly advancing toward him. The skeleton wasn’t moving fast, but its strength was overwhelming, and they were simply unable to compete.

”Wang Shao, have fun with them; I won’t keep you company!” the bearded man said with a laugh, ”Farewell, hahaha...”

The bearded man laughed as he turned to leave, but he hadn’t gone far when he stopped in his tracks. Su Yang was already blocking his path.

”Who... Who are you?” the bearded man frowned.

Wang Shao and the others saw him and were all stunned, ”Su... Su Yang?”

The bearded man’s complexion changed abruptly, ”Are you Su Yang?”

Su Yang stood with his hands behind his back, calmly saying, ”Put down the items and also, speak of the affairs of the Three Sage Monarchs, and I might spare your life!”

”You... How do you know?” the bearded man was shocked, as he was working for the Three Sage Monarchs. But how did Su Yang know about this?

”The aura on your bodies, it can’t be changed,” said Su Yang. ”What, are you preparing to make me take action myself?”

The bearded man took a deep breath and gritted his teeth, ”Su Yang, you have repeatedly foiled the great plans of the Monarchs, do you realize you are a dead man already?”

”So what!” Su Yang said coldly. ”If you are not convinced, you can have your Monarchs come find me!”

”The Monarchs will definitely come for you, just wait for your death!” the bearded man shouted angrily.

”That is a matter for the future...” Su Yang said. ”Now, speak what you must, and perhaps I can spare your life!”

”Damn it, do you really think you are invincible?!” the bearded man shouted angrily, ”I just don’t believe it!”

The bearded man stomped his foot, and immediately a burst of black light shone around him. He absorbed all the black light into his abdomen, gathered it for a moment, and then sprayed it out violently, transforming the black light into dozens of sharp swords, cleaving straight at Su Yang.

”Insect tricks!” Su Yang swung his hand casually, and all the black light was deflected away.

Unprepared for such an outcome, the bearded man jumped in fright. Seeing Su Yang approaching step by step, he suddenly bit down hard, roaring, ”I won’t say anything!”

Having said that, the bearded man slowly fell to the ground, black blood oozing from the corner of his mouth.

Su Yang frowned, this bearded man, just like the man in black before, would rather die than reveal anything about the Three Sage Monarchs. Who were these Three Sage Monarchs, to command such loyalty?

Opening the wooden box, there was a small piece of bronze seal script inside. The bronze had some strange symbols carved onto it that even Su Yang could not decipher. However, it was this small bronze piece that could affect the flow of Spiritual Energy in this treasured place of geomancy, which was extremely odd.

Su Yang did not know what it was, but since the people of the Three Sage Monarchs went to great lengths to snatch this thing, there must be a reason. He took the bronze piece with him.

On the other side, most of the people Wang Shao had brought were already bitten to death by the skeleton. Wang Shao, with a bitten off leg, couldn’t even crawl. Seeing the skeleton approaching him step by step, he cried out in a panic like a pig being slaughtered.

”Su Yang, Su Yang, save me, save me...” Wang Shao cried out tremblingly.

Su Yang looked at Wang Shao and said with a light laugh, ”Save you? Why should I? Weren’t you the one who wanted to use a Superior Magical Artifact to make me kneel before you and beg for mercy? And now you want me to save you?”

Wang Shao’s face was extremely embarrassed; he truly didn’t want to ask Su Yang for help. But at this moment, if he didn’t ask for Su Yang’s help, he would certainly die.

”Master Su, I... I know I was wrong, please save my life...” Wang Shao pleaded tremblingly: ”If you save me, from now on, my... the Wang Family will absolutely follow your lead!”

”That’s an interesting thing you said,” Su Yang responded. ”Even if I don’t save you, would the people of your Wang Family dare to disobey me?”
