Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 827: Chapter 826: The Youth in the Spring

Sect Master’s face was icy, ”Our only goal is the Celestial War Armor. For ninjas, all other hatred is unimportant, only the mission matters the most. If we cannot obtain the Celestial War Armor, then we would rather not engage in these futile efforts!”

A gleam flashed in Liao Yuxuan’s eyes, and he stared at the Sect Master for a while before slowly nodding, ”Fine, you can have the Celestial War Armor. But, you cannot let us leave empty-handed. Sect Master, I heard that when you annihilated the Wu Family, you obtained a Mysterious Crystal in their inner chamber. This Mysterious Crystal must be returned to us!”

The Sect Master fell silent, lowering his head in contemplation for a long time before finally feeling that the deal was worthwhile. He slowly nodded, ”Alright, you can have the Mysterious Crystal.”

”Then it’s settled!” Liao Yuxuan smiled, ”Tonight at eight, at Wangyue Villa, Sect Master, you better not be late!”

”Hmph, once I’ve agreed to something, how can I not accomplish it!” the Sect Master said coldly.

”Then we shall eagerly await the Sect Master’s grand arrival!” Liao Yuxuan smiled faintly, and left with Mr. Jin Ye beside him.

The Sect Master watched as Liao Yuxuan and the other left, then immediately turned to Onitsuka, speaking in a serious tone, ”This Mr. Jin Ye, is he very strong?”

”Not much weaker than me!” Onitsuka spoke softly.

The Sect Master’s heart skipped a beat. Onitsuka’s strength was already formidable, able to stand equal in combat with Su Yang. With Mr. Jin Ye additionally, the two could definitely suppress Su Yang.

If there was another one with strength comparable to Mr. Jin Ye at Liao Yuxuan’s side, then the three of them against Su Yang would leave no hope for Su Yang’s survival!

”Heaven aids me indeed!” the Sect Master sneered, ”Not only can I retrieve the Celestial War Armor, but I can also kill this Su Yang. It would not be a wasted trip here! This time, I must personally kill this Su Yang to vent the hatred in my heart!”

As he spoke, the Sect Master suddenly slapped towards the nearby Liuan Spring.

In the spring, a Little Turtle was leisurely wandering around. The Sect Master intended to kill this Little Turtle with a single palm strike to add more force to his words.

But at the moment his palm struck down, a strange occurrence happened—the body of the Little Turtle seemed to be drawn by some force, deftly dodging his strike.

The Sect Master was taken aback, ”What’s going on?”

Onitsuka’s brow furrowed as he suddenly drew his Katana Sword and slashed three times into the Liuan Spring.

The spring water burst open explosively, as though several bombs had been thrown into it. Yet, the Little Turtle continued to wander around in the water completely unharmed.

Onitsuka’s expression changed drastically, and he rushed above the spring, stabbing his Katana Sword directly into the water and frantically stirring it.

This time, there was finally some movement in the water. A hand reached out from within the water and hit right on the Katana Sword.

Onitsuka stepped back several paces, his face turning even more urgent. He looked at the Liuan Spring and finally did not attack again, instead speaking in a solemn voice, ”Retreat!”

The Sect Master dared not say a word and led the group to run hurriedly. Even Onitsuka was suggesting a retreat, what more could he say?

The group ran a great distance, visibly relieved when they saw no one pursuing them. The Sect Master looked towards Onitsuka and asked in a low voice, ”What was that?”

”I don’t know, it must be a hidden master.” Onitsuka spoke softly, ”Huaxia Country has many such hermits, hiding in the mountains and ancient forests to cultivate, possessing immense strength.”

”Could it be... Could it be a Terrestrial Immortal?” The Sect Master’s voice trembled a bit.

”Hard to say,” Onitsuka murmured, ”The power is very strong, it really could be a Terrestrial Immortal!”

”Then... then... the matter we discussed with Liao Yuxuan...” the Sect Master urgently said, ”Could he have overheard us?”

Onitsuka thought for a moment and replied, ”This is just a hermit from the deep mountains. We probably disturbed his meditation, and that’s why he made a move. Didn’t you see? His intervention was just to make us back off without hurting anyone, which shows he doesn’t like to meddle in external affairs. Moreover, he definitely doesn’t know Su Yang, and he might not bother with such trivial matters!”

The Sect Master sighed in relief and nodded slowly: ”That’s good, that’s good. Let’s forget it, we should head to the town first. These deep mountains and forests, we should visit less often, it’s really dangerous if we encounter any hidden masters!”

Not long after these people hastily left, a person slowly emerged from the waters of the Liuan Spring.

This person emerged from the water, his clothes completely dry, not a single droplet on his body or hair, which was very strange.

The person looked to be about twenty years old, quite handsome. A slight smile hung on his lips, and in his right hand, he held Little Turtle.

He carefully placed Little Turtle back into the Liuan Spring and chuckled softly, ”Little guy, hide better next time, don’t let someone slap you to death!”

Little Turtle entered the water and swam around joyfully, blissfully unaware of the several brushes with death it had just experienced.

The young man watched Little Turtle with a light smile until the little creature dived under the water and disappeared, then he finally stood up.

Standing with his hands behind his back, gazing into the distance, the young man murmured to himself, ”Su Yang, Wangyue Villa? Interesting!”

As his voice fell, the young man vanished on the spot, reappearing tens of meters away. Throughout the process, he simply stood with his hands behind his back, his body seemingly motionless, yet he moved continuously further away, as if teleporting, which was very magical.

...

By this time, Liao Yuxuan had already walked far with Mr. Jin Ye, unaware of what had just transpired at Liuan Spring.

Mr. Jin Ye frowned after walking with Liao Yuxuan for a while and said, ”Liao Yuxuan, the Divine Master never mentioned wanting the Mysterious Crystal. What the Divine Master wants is the Celestial War Armor!”

”I know!” Liao Yuxuan chuckled.

”Then why did you agree to give the Celestial War Armor to those Japanese?” Mr. Jin Ye frowned and said, ”How dare you make decisions behind the Divine Master’s back?”

”Brother Jin Ye, you misunderstand!” Liao Yuxuan laughed, ”I only said so. I never planned to give them the Celestial War Armor. But if I hadn’t said that, they definitely wouldn’t have come to help deal with Su Yang. I just said it to deceive them for now!”

After a pause, Liao Yuxuan continued smiling, ”The reason I brought up the Mysterious Crystal was also to make them lower their guard, thinking we still had something we desired. If I hadn’t mentioned the Mysterious Crystal, they might have grown suspicious. These Japanese are very shrewd indeed!”

Mr. Jin Ye had an epiphany and slowly nodded, ”That’s actually not bad, one can’t be careless when collaborating with these Japanese!”

”I deeply feel that!” Liao Yuxuan chuckled and said, ”Besides, the Mysterious Crystal is somewhat useful. Gongye Liang is still here, with the Mysterious Crystal, he could help forge some convenient weapons. By then, Brother Jin Ye, you might not need any assistance against Su Yang anymore, right?”

Mr. Jin Ye’s eyes brightened, and he laughed, ”That’s right, you’ve thought it through thoroughly. Weapons made from Mysterious Crystal could indeed be quite useful!”
