Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 1137: Chapter 1136 Jade Maiden Peak

Chen Benshuang said so much that Su Yang had nothing more to say; he could only engage in combat with her once again.

The two clashed once more, and this situation had become much more perilous than before.

Previously in battle, Chen Benshuang still exhibited some rationality. Now, as she struck again, it was nothing short of madness, each move seemingly made with all her strength, as if she were intent on killing Su Yang right there and then.

Su Yang, too, was provoked into genuine anger, managing to repel Chen Benshuang several times, but each time she would madly rush at him again.

This woman, though she had been spoiled into a haughty temper, undeniably possessed an extremely tenacious character, something even many men could not achieve. In such a fight, clearly outmatched and significantly wounded, she still fought desperately—a feat not just anyone could manage.

Lü Donglin watched from the side, utterly speechless. All he could do now was keep watch, ensuring Chen Benshuang did not receive too severe injuries.

He understood the Black Widow’s temperament very well, as well as the way the Chen family handled matters. If Chen Benshuang were to be gravely injured, Su Yang would have truly caused a major problem.

However, if Su Yang did not heavily injure Chen Benshuang, this fight would never end. Thus, the battle rendered Su Yang utterly speechless.

Eventually, Su Yang devised a solution: using a silver needle, he sealed off all of Chen Benshuang’s powers.

With that, Chen Benshuang was incapacitated, no longer able to fight; and thus, the battle finally ceased.

Chen Benshuang, furious to the extreme, shouted, ”Su, what did you do to me? Release me now, let me continue fighting you.”

Su Yang remained silent while Lü Donglin motioned urgently, signaling him not to release Chen Benshuang; otherwise, who knows how long the fight would continue.

”This battle, you have already lost. I won’t fight you anymore!” Su Yang said solemnly, ”If the Chen family is not satisfied, they can send someone else to fight me!”

With that, Su Yang turned and walked away, no longer lingering there.

”Don’t go, come back! Did you hear me! Su Yang, I won’t let you off!” Chen Benshuang screamed loudly, but Su Yang never turned back, leaving her pale with rage.

Lü Donglin finally breathed a sigh of relief. This outcome, for now, was the best possible one.

Of course, the matter was not yet over, as Chen Benshuang would certainly not let this rest so easily. But at least, it hadn’t become even more complicated.

”Bai Qing, you girls take Miss Chen down to rest first!” Lü Donglin waved.

Bai Qing swiftly led several girls to assist Chen Benshuang in resting. Lü Donglin did not idle either; he immediately turned to catch up with Su Yang.

”Brother Su, thanks for just now!” Lü Donglin bowed in gratitude.

”You’re welcome!” Su Yang replied, ”I couldn’t possibly hurt her. This girl, although somewhat haughty in temperament, is not of bad nature.”

”Yes, that’s the main reason I asked you not to be too harsh.” Lü Donglin smiled, ”She might just need some time to come around; don’t take it to heart. Once she realizes it, there won’t be any problems.”

Su Yang was silent for a moment before he replied softly, ”Her Quchi acupoint has a silver needle in it. After three days, once it’s removed, her strength will fully recover. During these three days, she won’t have any strength at all. Lü, I hope you can protect her.”

”It’s only right!” Lü Donglin nodded and smiled, ”I owe the Black Widow a favor, and I’m surely going to repay it. Plus, I consider myself her friend, so I couldn’t just ignore it.”

”Thank you so much, Lü,” Su Yang said with a light smile and nod.

”By the way, what do you plan to do next?” Lü Donglin asked, ”Are you going to stay at Qinghe Academy, or...”

”I’m planning to leave.” Su Yang replied, ”I don’t intend to stay at Qinghe Academy any longer.”

”Ah?” Lü Donglin was taken aback, glancing at Hu Xiexie.

Hu Xiexie took a deep breath and said in a low voice, ”I will stay here; I’m going to Jade Maiden Peak.”

After Lü Donglin and Su Yang discussed Qinghe Academy’s secrets, Su Yang had told Hu Xiexie. Hu Xiexie then directly confronted her father, who only then informed her of the real situation.

It turned out that Hu Xiexie’s mother was a cultivator from Jade Maiden Peak. After giving birth to Hu Xiexie, she had returned to the peak. Over the years, Hu Xiexie’s father had tried every means possible to visit Jade Maiden Peak, but each attempt had been in vain, leading him to despair.

When Hu Xiexie grew up and asked about her mother, her father could not tell her the truth. Therefore, he simply advised her to practice her cultivation diligently, promising that one day she would see her mother.

But entering Jade Maiden Peak was not simply a matter of having strong abilities.

Hu Xiexie’s father spent a considerable fortune to find several Earth Immortals to inquire about Jade Maiden Peak. The conclusion they reached was that mortals could not reach Jade Maiden Peak; the only possible method was through Qinghe Academy.

That was why he told Hu Xiexie that to see her mother, she had to go to Qinghe Academy.

Up to now, so long as Lü Donglin agreed, Hu Xiexie could become one of the top ten in the advanced class at Qinghe Academy.

And coincidentally, Jade Maiden Peak was one of the Ten Great Sects that Qinghe Academy recommended for talent.

After discussing the matter with Su Yang, Hu Xiexie ultimately decided to remain at Qinghe Academy; she wanted to go to Jade Maiden Peak and meet her biological mother.

As for Su Yang, he couldn’t go to the Great Sects as he had too many commitments outside; therefore, he had to stay behind.

”That’s probably for the best!” Lü Donglin nodded, ”Su Yang, your personality indeed doesn’t quite fit the Great Sects. And Miss Hu has her concerns, which are necessary things to do, so it’s only appropriate. In that case, I’ll make the arrangements – there will be a place for Miss Hu among the top ten of the advanced class.”

”Then I’m relying on you, Lü,” Su Yang thanked him with a bow.

”It’s no trouble!” Lü Donglin paused, then asked, ”What about Huo Qianfang? Is she planning to go to the Great Sects, or leave Qinghe Academy?”

”Nonsense, of course she’s going to the Great Sects!”

Before Su Yang could answer, a cool voice fell from the sky.

Everyone looked up to see a stunningly beautiful purple-clad woman descending from the heavens—it was none other than Huo Yuanzhen.

Lü Donglin, caught off guard, looked at Su Yang in surprise, not recognizing Huo Yuanzhen.

”This is Elder Huo Yuanzhen from the Huo Family of Pingbei Province,” Su Yang hurriedly introduced.

”It’s Elder Huo then!” Lü Donglin promptly bowed.

”Old your grandfather!” Huo Yuanzhen slapped Lü Donglin on the back and cursed, ”Is that how the Beigong War God taught you? How am I old?”

Lü Donglin looked sheepish; he had heard of Huo Yuanzhen’s name from the Beigong War God and knew she was not to be trifled with, so he quickly bowed again, ”I was wrong; it’s Miss Huo, Miss Huo!”
