Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 733: Chapter 732: Terrestrial Immortal?

Among the Qi Family’s Five Heroes, three had already fought with Su Yang.

Qi Zhi’an was beaten into serious injury, and Qi Wu’an wasn’t any better off. Another was still outside and hadn’t returned, while Qi Jian’an, who ranked second in strength, clearly wouldn’t be a match for Su Yang if the fight continued.

Who else could the Qi Family bring out to save face?

Su Yang had also seen this, which was why he dared to come to the Qi Family. The words Ye Jiansheng had said to him made him aware of the restrictions of Earth Immortals, so naturally, he wouldn’t be worried about the six Earth Immortals from the Qi Family side.

The Third Ancestor’s brows were tightly knit, his expression extremely unsightly. Below, the people of the Qi Family roared in anger, one after another clamoring to take action and kill Su Yang. But in reality, it was just clamoring, and no one dared to make a move.

Seeing the Third Ancestor’s expression, Qi Jian’an pretty much knew the situation and didn’t dare to act rashly either. If he didn’t fight now, he and Su Yang were still at a stalemate, at least he still had some face left. If the fight went on and he lost, that would be the end of his dignity.

Su Yang’s face was calm, and he stood with his hands behind his back, saying loudly, ”Old Immortal, is this all your Qi Family’s people can do, engage in verbal disputes? I’m standing right here. Don’t just talk the talk, come at me all at once, I’ll be ready!”

The members of the Qi Family were even more enraged, but paradoxically, even less dared to make a move now.

The Third Ancestor clenched his teeth and said in a deep voice, ”Young man, spare others when you can. Just know, there’s always a higher mountain. Do you truly think that my Qi Family has no one who can deal with you? Don’t forget, we have the third on the Earth Rankings!”

Hearing this, the Qi Family members didn’t know whether to feel happy or helpless.

Truthfully, after Qi Zhishan spent over a decade in meditative retreat, the people of the Qi Family were quite dissatisfied with him. After Qi Jian’an’s rise, people had almost forgotten about Qi Zhishan, and everyone in the Qi Family placed their hopes on Qi Jian’an.

Who would have thought that in the end, the Qi Family would have to rely on that branch family member who wasn’t looked upon favorably?

”Third on the Earth Rankings...” Su Yang nodded slightly, ”That should be somewhat interesting!”

The expressions of the Qi Family members were all filled with extreme anger. Third on the Earth Rankings, and you do not fear him at all?

The crowd turned their eyes toward the Third Ancestor. Although unwilling, it seemed they could only ask this branch member of the Qi Family to take action now!

The Third Ancestor was also cold-faced. Qi Jian’an was his grandson, and to make Qi Jian’an replace Qi Zhishan, he had not spared any effort in suppressing Qi Zhishan over the years. He mentioned the third on the Earth Rankings simply to intimidate Su Yang, not expecting Su Yang to be completely unconcerned.

Now what? He found himself in an awkward position. Would he really ask Qi Zhishan to step in?

Let alone the issue of his own dignity, the most crucial point was whether Qi Zhishan would agree to take action. After spending over a decade in meditative retreat, even when Qi Bachí personally visited him, he did not step out. Could the Third Ancestor get him to come out?

Seeing the Third Ancestor’s troubled expression, Su Yang sneered and said, ”What’s the matter? The Earth Immortals of the Qi Family can’t even summon the juniors of your own family? These rules of the Qi Family, I see, are not quite as such after all!”

The Third Ancestor, furious and humiliated, exclaimed, ”Since you’re so intent on seeking death, I’ll oblige you!”

With that, the Third Ancestor turned his head and shouted towards a small courtyard in the back, ”Qi Zhishan, come out!”

The people of the Qi Family stared intently at that small courtyard. There was no ripple of movement from inside the courtyard, as if no one was there.

The Qi Family members were all even more irritated. Someone shouted, ”Qi Zhishan, are you still a member of the Qi Family or not? The insults have reached our doorstep, and you still hide like a shrinking turtle? Do you really think you can sit in meditative retreat forever? Members of the Qi Family should share in the family’s glory and disgrace. Do you have no sense of family honor and mission?”

The others also roared furiously, denouncing Qi Zhishan. But the small courtyard remained calm, with not the slightest response.

Third Ancestor could no longer contain himself, his face twisted with rage, and suddenly reached out to grasp at the air.

A giant hand, a zhang in size, appeared in the sky and reached straight for the small courtyard. The look of this massive hand was as if it intended to completely obliterate the courtyard in one fell swoop.

Just as it seemed the giant hand would seize the courtyard, suddenly, a dragon’s roar emanated from within. Following that, three huge dragons spiraled out, directly blocking the hand and preventing it from pressing down.

Third Ancestor’s face showed surprise, and the Qi Family members were also stunned, with Qi Jian’an gaping in shock.

”Three dragons... has he reached the third level of the Nine Dragons Technique?” Qi Jian’an asked in astonishment. ”Has he also entered the Land Fairy Realm? When did he break through to the Earthly Immortal Realm?”

Everyone was profoundly shaken. To master the third level of the Qi Family Nine Dragons Art meant entry into the Earthly Immortal Realm.

Qi Zhishan had sat in quiet meditation for over a decade without a stir, and no one knew just how formidable his power had become. Plus, with Qi Jian’an’s rise, the Qi Family intentionally downplayed Qi Zhishan’s abilities, leading many to think that Qi Zhishan was not much stronger than Qi Jian’an.

But now, everyone had to reconsider in shock. Qi Zhishan had entered the Earthly Immortal Realm, so could Qi Jian’an still be his equal?

After a long silence, Third Ancestor gritted his teeth and said, ”So you’ve already entered the Earthly Immortal Realm, no wonder you were unwilling to make a move. It seems I’ve misjudged you. But all the better, from today onward, the Qi Family will have one more Earth Immortal!”

In his heart, Third Ancestor was also quite excited. The strength of the Qi Family was growing stronger. If Qi Jian’an made another breakthrough, the Qi Family would then have eight Earth Immortals.

Why was the Su Family of Yanbei able to make demons and gods retreat but not because they possessed enough Earth Immortals?

If the Qi Family could achieve this, would they no longer fear the Law Enforcers on Lake Heart Island?

By then, if someone caused trouble on Lake Heart Island, an Earth Immortal could simply snap them away with a flick of the finger.

Third Ancestor gave Su Yang a fierce glare. If it were not for the rules of the Heavenly Court, he would have wanted to crush Su Yang then and there!

However, just when everyone was astonished, perhaps even pleased, Su Yang suddenly said, ”Since you haven’t yet entered the Earthly Immortal Realm, why not come out and fight me? This opportunity won’t come again. Once you enter the Earthly Immortal Realm, we won’t be able to fight anymore!”

Everyone was dumbfounded. What did Su Yang mean by that?

”Who are you talking about?” asked a member of the Qi Family, unable to hold back.

”Qi Zhishan,” Su Yang replied with a smile. ”It’s quite interesting that, without having entered the Earthly Immortal Realm, you’re able to withstand the attack of an Earth Immortal. Tsk tsk, it seems my understanding of the Fusion Realm is still not enough!”

Everyone was taken aback. Qi Zhishan hadn’t entered the Earthly Immortal Realm? How was that possible?

”Don’t talk nonsense!” someone blurted out angrily. ”The third level of the Nine Dragons Technique is the mark of an Earth Immortal. You don’t understand the marvels of our Qi Family’s martial arts, yet you dare spout such nonsense here!”

The rest also fervently mocked, laughing at Su Yang for pretending to know what he did not. The Qi Family were convinced Qi Zhishan had ascended to the Earth Immortal Realm.

At that moment, however, a light sigh came from the small courtyard: ”Master Su of Pingnan Province truly lives up to his reputation, to discern my realm with a single glance!”
