Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 837: Chapter 836: The Secret of the Celestial War Armor

The Sect Master’s face turned icy, and he said in a deep voice, ”Must you make an enemy of us? Do you really think that our sect only consists of us few?”

”I’ve trampled the Qi Family of Wanhu, what more can your sect do, no matter how strong it is?” Su Yang said coldly. ”Besides, you Japanese harbor ill intentions. You come to Huaxia Country and kill so many people, and now that you’re in danger, you think a few words will let you leave alive? Why should I let that happen?”

The Sect Master was at a loss for words. The strength of the Qi Family of Wanhu went without saying. Su Yang had killed so many of their people on Lake Heart Island, and even forced the people of the Qi Family to close their island and not venture out. So, why would Su Yang fear their sect?

”Master Su, we have no intentions of being enemies with Huaxia Country...” The Sect Master said with an embarrassed face: ”There’s a saying in Huaxia, ’It is better to resolve enmity than to maintain it...’”

Su Yang glanced at the Sect Master and said coldly, ”Save your breath, what you’ve said isn’t enough to make me spare you.”

The Sect Master’s expression darkened, and after pondering for a while, he clenched his teeth and said, ”Master Su, if you let us go, I will tell you a secret.”

Su Yang: ”That depends on whether your secret is worth sparing your lives for.”

”I’ll tell you a secret about Liao Yuxuan and his people.” The Sect Master said solemnly.

”Then there’s no need to speak.” Su Yang waved his hand and said, ”Regardless of whether you tell me or not, I’m going to kill Liao Yuxuan and his people. Whether they have secrets or not is not important to me!”

The Sect Master was taken aback, whispering, ”Master Su, although you have grievances against Liao Yuxuan, you might not know the facts about him. Don’t you find it strange that Liao Yuxuan has such great power? He had never cultivated before, so where did this strength come from?”

”I’m not curious.” Su Yang waved his hand and said, ”Don’t waste your breath on this matter. Either tell me something of value, or just stand here and wait for his death.”

The Sect Master was dumbfounded by Su Yang’s response. Logically, given the enmity between Su Yang and Liao Yuxuan, Su Yang should be keen to know Liao Yuxuan’s secrets. Why, then, did Su Yang show no interest at all?

Meanwhile, Qi Zhishan had already clamped down on the katana in Onitsuka’s hands and with a slight effort, broke the sword by an inch, causing Onitsuka to spit out a mouthful of fresh blood.

The Sect Master’s face changed dramatically. The katana was Onitsuka’s life-bound sword, which he had cultivated with. The stronger Onitsuka’s power, the stronger the katana. With the katana damaged, Onitsuka was bound to be injured.

Nonetheless, the katana was incredibly sturdy. Onitsuka had used it to battle countless masters to date without a single scratch. Today, it was broken by an inch by Qi Zhishan, which was astonishing to him.

”It seems your friend won’t last much longer,” Su Yang said softly. ”Think about it, is there anything you can tell me?”

The Sect Master gritted his teeth, still hesitating.

Seizing the opportunity once again, Qi Zhishan clamped down on the katana and broke off another inch. He was cooperating with Su Yang to force the Sect Master to reveal the secrets they wanted to know.

Seeing Onitsuka spit out another mouthful of fresh blood, the Sect Master’s face changed abruptly, and in a furious tone, he said, ”I’ll tell you!”

Qi Zhishan didn’t stop, prompting the Sect Master to say in desperation, ”What about the secret of the Celestial War Armor?”

”That’s somewhat adequate,” Su Yang said with a faint smile. The secret of the Celestial War Armor was indeed what he wanted to know.

”Then make him stop!” the Sect Master urged swiftly.

Su Yang looked at Qi Zhishan with a faint smile, ”Qi Brother, what do you say?”

”As you wish,” Qi Zhishan said. ”It doesn’t really matter to me, after all.”

”Thank you!” Su Yang nodded.

Qi Zhishan stopped, and Onitsuka took a step back, his face pale, as he took several deep breaths. Qi Zhishan’s strength was simply too formidable. Even this was a result of Qi Zhishan holding back; if the fight had continued, his defeat would have been certain!

”Alright, you can speak now,” Su Yang said to the Sect Master.

The Sect Master took a deep breath and said in a somber tone, ”Once I reveal this secret, you must let all of us go.”

”When Mr. Su speaks, he always keeps his word!” Su Yang said. ”If you don’t trust me, you don’t have to speak.”

What other choice did the Sect Master have now? He clenched his teeth and said somberly, ”Do you know how the Celestial War Armor came to be?”

”Wasn’t it a treasure obtained from overseas by the Ancestor of the Wu Family?” Su Yang said.

”From where overseas?” the Sect Master pressed.

Su Yang glanced at the Sect Master. ”If I knew that much detail, would I still need you to tell me?”

”The Celestial War Armor was something the Ancestor of the Wu Family took from our Japan!” the Sect Master said gravely.

”No wonder!” Su Yang suddenly understood. No wonder those Japanese had been so obsessed with seizing the Celestial War Armor.

”Now, may we leave?” the Sect Master asked.

”Are you sick in the head?” Su Yang said with widened eyes. ”You think a single sentence can exchange for your lives?”

”Then what do you want!” the Sect Master asked urgently.

”What exactly is the Celestial War Armor for...” Su Yang said coldly. ”And what about the Tortoise Shell inside it?”

”You...” The Sect Master became flustered; he hadn’t expected that Su Yang would know about the Tortoise Shell inside the Celestial War Armor.

”Only after you’ve explained clearly can you leave,” Su Yang said coldly. ”Remember, if you lie to me, none of you will leave here alive today!”

The Sect Master clenched his teeth and remained silent for a long while, but finally sighed resignedly and said in a somber tone, ”Fine, I will tell you everything. But you must let us go!”

”Spare me the nonsense; when I say something, I follow through!” Su Yang said coldly.

The Sect Master took a deep breath and said, ”The Celestial War Armor wasn’t originally armor at all, it was just the Tortoise Shell inside. The Ancestor of the Wu Family took just this Tortoise Shell from our Japan and crafted it into the Celestial War Armor.”

”And this Tortoise Shell is the sacred object used to enter and exit the Asura Gate in our Japan. Only by possessing this Tortoise Shell can the Asura Gate be opened once every hundred years.”

”Several generations of the Wu Family have produced Terrestrial Immortals, and if a Terrestrial Immortal holds this Tortoise Shell, they are virtually invincible. Hence, we have been unable to take back the Tortoise Shell for hundreds of years since the Wu Family seized it. This time, it just so happened to coincide with the centennial opening of the Asura Gate, and the Wu Family happened to lack a Terrestrial Immortal to guard it, so we thought to take back the Tortoise Shell!”

Having said this, the Sect Master looked at Su Yang and stated gravely, ”Inside the Asura Gate are various ninja techniques left by the ancestors of our Japan, suitable only for the people of Japan to practice. Therefore, although the Wu Family has possessed the Tortoise Shell for so many years, they have never been to the Asura Gate, because its contents are useless to them!”

Su Yang laughed, ”You don’t need to preempt me with this warning; even if the items inside are useless to me, if I want to go in, I’ll go in!”
