Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 413: Chapter 412 The Wang Family Admits Defeat

The crowd was immediately abuzz with noise. Had Wang Wanli just surrendered without even fighting? What a joke!

”Damn it, there must be something fishy going on, right? This is the second best martial artist in Pingnan Province? If you want to deceive people, at least make it look real, at least throw a couple of punches!”

”Yeah, who does it like this, surrendering straight away? What kind of bullshit is this?”

”How much money did this guy Su spend to make Wang Wanli surrender?”

Lian Qianjun also frowned deeply, wondering, ”He lost just like that?”

”It was inevitable!” the gray-haired elder laughed. ”With the force of ’Boundless Ocean’ built up for so long with nowhere to vent, that powerful energy wanders within his body. That he has held out for this long is already quite impressive. After this, his strength probably won’t even reach the Integration Realm!”

”Su Yang won too easily, didn’t he?” said Lian Qianjun.

”This battle was not easy!” the gray-haired elder shook his head. ”If he didn’t have the ’Great Prajna Vajra Zen’ move, or if his ’Great Prajna Vajra Zen’ was off by even the slightest bit, Wang Wanli would have been able to find his trace. With one strike, given Su Yang’s current strength, it would have been impossible to block.”

”Even if he could barely hold out and defeat Wang Wanli, he would likely sustain serious injuries. Therefore, he had no choice but to use the ’Great Prajna Vajra Zen’ to prevent Wang Wanli from exerting his strength.”

”However, this was also extremely dangerous. ’Great Prajna Vajra Zen’ focuses on a mind as still as water, meditating in tranquility, forgetting everything outside. That is to say, during this process, even if Wang Wanli were to strike, he could not resist. Even the slightest disturbance in his intent would inevitably cause a flaw in the ’Great Prajna Vajra Zen’ to appear, thereby allowing Wang Wanli to detect it and then defeat him with one strike.”

”So, you could say that in the battle just now, Su Yang nearly staked his life to win!”

Lian Qianjun was dumbfounded. His own martial arts could only be considered mid-level Qi Refinement; he hadn’t even reached the Integration Realm, so naturally, he couldn’t comprehend such high-level matters. Hearing the gray-haired elder’s analysis left him utterly shocked. Who would have thought that what appeared to be a dull battle was in fact filled with such deadly peril!

On the stage, Su Yang slowly withdrew the golden light from behind. Just as the gray-haired elder had said, this golden light was indeed the ’Great Prajna Vajra Zen,’ a secret technique recorded in the Destiny’s Tome.

Previously, Su Yang hadn’t been strong enough to use such a powerful move. However, after he had penetrated the secrets of the Arhat Buddha Beads and gained a deeper understanding of the Buddhist Secret Law, and having consumed Immortal Herbs, his strength greatly increased. Combined with the Buddhist Subduing Demon Mantra, he was then able to perform the ’Great Prajna Vajra Zen.’

However, the gray-haired elder was not quite correct in one assumption—that after using ’Great Prajna Vajra Zen,’ Su Yang would lose his ability to resist.

For other Buddhist cultivators, that might be true, but for Su Yang, it was not the case at all. Because Su Yang, who cultivated in the ways of Buddha, demon, and magic, possessed spiritual power far exceeding that of ordinary people. The level of concentration required for ’Great Prajna Vajra Zen’ was negligible for Su Yang.

He used ’Great Prajna Vajra Zen’ primarily to conserve strength and to make Wang Wanli surrender without a fight. After all, Su Yang had other opponents to face, and he couldn’t afford to deplete too much energy on Wang Wanli.

As it turned out, Su Yang’s decision was the right one. Wang Wanli collapsed without a fight, and Su Yang easily won the battle!

”You have lost!” Su Yang said to Wang Wanli in a cold voice, ”But has the Wang Family lost?”

Wang Wanli’s expression fell as he bowed slowly: ”I surrender, and so does the Wang Family.”

”Big brother, you can’t surrender!” Wang Yuguang exclaimed in a panic. He couldn’t see what was going on, but Wang Wanli’s unconditional withdrawal baffled him. Most importantly, his son had been killed by Su Yang—this vendetta had to be avenged!

”Shut up!” Wang Wanli said sternly, ”Wang Yuguang, from now on, you are no longer the Family Head of the Wang Family!”

”What?” Wang Yuguang was stunned, ”Big brother, what... what are you talking about?”

”I said, from now on, you are no longer the Family Head of the Wang Family!” Wang Wanli’s gaze swept across the members of the Wang Family and said coldly, ”Does anyone object?”

No one spoke. Although Wang Yuguang was the Family Head of the Wang Family, the real power holder was actually Wang Wanli. Those with considerable strength in the Wang Family were either descendants of Wang Wanli or his disciples.

Wang Yuguang’s lineage was merely the nominal head, managing some businesses and the like. When compared to Wang Wanli’s influence, they amounted to nothing.

Now that Wang Wanli intended to erase Wang Yuguang’s status as Family Head, naturally no one dared to speak out. Even those close to Wang Yuguang kept their heads down in silence. With Wang Wanli speaking out, Wang Yuguang’s status was doomed!

”Big brother, you... you... how can you do this...” Wang Yuguang pleaded urgently, ”What benefits has Su Yang given you? How can you surrender without a fight? Moreover, you know he killed my son, killed your nephew, and you... you actually admit defeat like this? Does our Wang Family mean less to you than the benefits Su Yang gave you?”

Wang Wanli’s face turned extremely grim as he gestured with his hand, ”Someone, drag him out for me!”

”Why drag me out? You don’t dare to answer my question, how much did you take from him!” Wang Yuguang roared continuously, but at this moment, people from the Wang Family had already come over and carried him out.

Wang Wanli took a deep breath and turned his head to Su Yang again, ”Master Su, the Wang Family completely admits defeat!”

Su Yang then nodded in satisfaction, ”The subsequent matters will naturally be discussed with you by Hou Shilin. You may step down now!”

”Yes!” Wang Wanli bowed and nodded, displaying respect akin to a younger generation before their elder.

Su Yang stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze sweeping over the crowd as he said aloud, ”What follows, is there anyone else who wishes to challenge me?”

The scene remained silent. The strength Su Yang had displayed instilled fear in everyone. Who would dare to challenge him?

”Just now, you were very eager to challenge the Hou Family. How come, in a moment’s time, you no longer wish to challenge me?” Su Yang spoke leisurely, ”What, does that mean all your grievances with the Hou Family disappeared just because of a change of person?”

Still, there was deadly silence. People were filled with anger in their hearts but nobody dared to speak up.

”If no one challenges, then it’s my turn to challenge you!” Su Yang said with a light smile, his gaze sweeping across the crowd once again.

Those who caught his eye all felt a chill. At this moment, whoever Su Yang chose to confront, that power was likely done for.

Ye Zhenying took a deep breath and gave Su Yang a meaningful look, signaling that he should first deal with Pingbei Province. After all, Pingnan Province had been infighting for too long and it was necessary to wear down the strength of Pingbei Province first.

However, Su Yang did not act according to his wishes and instead turned to Eight-Faced Yama, ”Eight-Faced Yama, didn’t you invite me to the Dragon Head Meeting in May? Now that I’m here, shouldn’t we make a few moves?”
