Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 680: Chapter 679: Queuing, Jumping the Queue

Jeang Zier donned a set of loose men’s clothing, a duckbill cap, and a pair of men’s sunglasses, effectively obscuring half of her face. Thus, the people present couldn’t tell she was a girl.

Even so, the half of her face that was visible was still stunningly attractive. However, this disguise seemed to draw more attention from the girls.

From the fervent looks in those girls’ eyes, it was clear that they mistook Jeang Zier for a genuinely handsome man.

Su Yang had Jeang Zier change her appearance to avoid trouble on the way. These young masters, accustomed to flirting and seducing women, would definitely join in if they saw a beautiful girl. A conflict en route would easily raise the alarm.

However, Jeang Zier’s outfit had still managed to stir up an incident.

Those affluent and willful young women also liked handsome men and were naturally attracted to Jeang Zier. But this immediately made the men present dissatisfied.

The one who had mocked Su Yang earlier did so because the girl he was pursuing kept her gaze fixed on Jeang Zier, which provoked his sarcastic remark.

The girl was clearly displeased and shot the young man a resentful glance. But upon seeing the car Su Yang was driving, she ultimately sighed.

These wealthy and spoiled women were well aware of the reality. Casual flirting with a handsome man was fine, but when it came to further developing a relationship, they would consider whether the man had the means. A match of equal social standing was their most crucial criterion for choosing a partner. With Jeang Zier’s family background, it was clear that this was just a flirtation.

”What a waste of a handsome face,” the girl lamented inwardly.

Su Yang didn’t even spare the young man a glance and continued straight to the entrance with Jeang Zier.

The area was crowded, and the two joined the line in an orderly fashion, ready to make their way up the mountain.

They hadn’t gone far when more people arrived behind them to queue up.

While they were standing in line, suddenly, a large hand landed on Su Yang’s shoulder, followed by an overbearing voice, ”Kid, move to the back of the line!”

Turning around, Su Yang saw a tall, burly man standing behind him, looking at him with a menacing expression. It seemed that if Su Yang didn’t step aside, the man was ready to deal with him.

Jeang Zier’s expression turned cold, and she was about to speak, but Su Yang stopped her.

”If you’re in such a hurry, then you go ahead,” Su Yang replied with a faint smile, taking Jeang Zier to the very back of the line.

Jeang Zier looked at him in surprise. Su Yang’s personality wasn’t one to be this accommodating. In the River God Sect, in Pingbei Province, Su Yang was always very assertive. What was happening this time? How could he bear this man’s bullying?

What she didn’t realize was that upon arriving at Accumulated Cloud Mountain, Su Yang sensed a familiar aura, somewhat similar to that of the Three-faced God Monarch he had felt before.

After the incident in Nanluo City, Liao Yuxuan disappeared and the people associated with the Three-faced God Monarch vanished without a trace.

However, Su Yang knew that the strength of the Three-faced God Monarch was not weak and it was impossible for him to be completely annihilated by Su Yang that easily. Therefore, Su Yang had always been cautiously vigilant, guarding against a sudden attack by the Three-faced God Monarch.

”Who would’ve thought, on Accumulated Cloud Mountain, I would sense the presence of the Three-faced God Monarch—a truly unexpected gain, indeed.”

Of course, when Su Yang first heard about the sudden surge in the Medical Saint Sect’s strength, he did find it odd, suspecting that the sect must be up to something. Now, could it be related to the Three-faced God Monarch?

If that were truly the case, Su Yang would be even more certain. The Medical Saint Sect’s provocation might indeed be connected to the Three-faced God Monarch!

If it were the old Su Yang, he certainly wouldn’t have given this brute any face. However, times have changed. Now that he knows the Three-faced God Monarch is on the mountain, Su Yang cannot take this lightly; he must keep a low profile while ascending and, at least before meeting the Three-faced God Monarch, avoid any rash action.

Otherwise, should his power be revealed and alarm the Three-faced God Monarch, and the deity flees again, finding him would not be an easy task for Su Yang.

The people around, naturally unaware of Su Yang’s calculations, saw him truly step back and many wore a look of ridicule.

The individuals who came here were all rich or noble, accustomed to being significant figures in their own right. Who would act so timidly?

Su Yang’s submission naturally led to even greater contempt from the crowd. Especially the young man who had mocked Su Yang earlier, he sneered, ”Hey, lad, the mountain path is dangerous and full of villains. I advise you not to go up the mountain, lest you find it easy to get in but impossible to leave!”

The girl next to him shook her head and looked at Jeang Zier with similar disdain. What use is a pretty face? We live in a society that values strength; without it, you are nothing but an empty vase!

Su Yang, however, remained calm, as if he hadn’t heard the laughter of the crowd around him, honestly standing at the very end of the line.

At that moment, a few more groups walked over and directly took Su Yang’s place.

Throughout the whole process, Su Yang didn’t utter a single word, and the laughter of the people present grew even louder.

Su Yang and his party were basically always at the end of the line, the people in front had already started climbing, while they were still queuing up here.

Just then, four people approached, a brother and sister supporting an elderly lady, accompanied by a middle-aged man.

Seeing these four come over, Jeang Zier, who had already given up, simply stepped aside to let them take their place in line.

At this, the brother quickly said with a smile, ”There’s no need to give up your spot for us, we arrived late, and it’s only right that we wait at the end!”

”Huh?” Jeang Zier was momentarily stunned. These four had been around for quite a while, watching with their own eyes as everyone else came to claim their spots. Logically speaking, they should have cut in front of Su Yang and Jeang Zier without any consideration for their feelings, but what was happening now?

”Brother, if they’re letting us go ahead, why do you want to stand behind?” The girl beside him said, puzzled, ”If we go up the mountain earlier, we can get treatment for grandma earlier too!”

”Don’t talk nonsense!” her brother quickly chastised, ”Everyone is here to seek medical help; why should they give up their place for us? Sorry about that, my sister is young and doesn’t know any better, please don’t take it to heart!”

A touch of warmth appeared on Jeang Zier’s face; this brother seemed like a rather decent person.

The sister, however, showed outright dissatisfaction, her gaze towards Su Yang and Jeang Zier filled with contempt. Having watched Su Yang and Jeang Zier yield their places to so many people just moments before, she saw them as nothing but cowards, hardly worth her direct glance.
