Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 1448: Chapter 1447: North Mountain Summit

Su Yang was about to speak when Han Shao directly walked up to him and said loudly, ”Master Su, there’s no need for you to speak further. Our family has already sent the challenge to the Medicine Sect. Tonight, on the North Mountain Summit, we must be there!”

Su Yang was stunned. He hadn’t expected these three families to take matters to this extent.

Filled with gratitude, Su Yang slowly nodded and said in a steady voice, ”Since that’s the case, let us fight side by side. This battle — many people believe Su Yang is destined to die. But I can tell everyone this: this fight, we may not necessarily lose!”

In their hearts, everyone had been prepared to face death, but seeing the confidence on Su Yang’s face, their spirits collectively rose.

If Su Yang wins this battle, his status in the Capital City will likely soar, rivaling even the Black Widow Martial Champion.

But could Su Yang actually win this fight?

The North Mountain Summit was an incredibly desolate place.

Beishan was a region full of mountain ranges, sparsely populated and remote. Ordinarily, people wouldn’t come here. Within a radius of dozens of miles, it was all wilderness, impossible for anyone to settle nearby.

At the summit of Beishan, there was a particularly spacious platform.

By the time Su Yang and his group arrived, hundreds of people had already gathered atop the platform. Most of them were members of those fifteen families, with only about twenty percent being from the Four Great Sects.

Although the four sects were allied tonight, in reality, the number of people they sent wasn’t significant. Aside from the Medicine Sect, which had brought forty or fifty individuals, the other three sects had only sent twenty to thirty people each.

The Second Elder was supremely confident of victory and didn’t want excessive losses on his side. Thus, the attendees from the sects were fewer, while all the elite forces from the fifteen families were present in full.

The Second Elder’s planning was meticulous: once the battle began, the warriors from the fifteen families would lead the charge. After both sides endured heavy losses, the Four Great Sects would then strike together to annihilate Su Yang. This way, revenge could be exacted while minimizing casualties—a perfect double win.

Su Yang’s side also had a sizeable number, but compared to the Medicine Sect, their strength appeared much weaker. The disparity was evident; the Medicine Sect had over five hundred people, while Su Yang’s forces numbered only around two hundred. Additionally, the Medicine Sect had far more experts than Su Yang’s side. Based on outward strength alone, there seemed to be no chance for Su Yang’s victory in this battle.

The members of the fifteen families, seeing Su Yang approaching with his people, grew even more excited. The weaker Su Yang appeared, the greater their hope for victory. For them, this was a golden opportunity—not only to align themselves with the Medicine Sect, but to elevate their position in the Capital City significantly after this battle!

As Su Yang approached, one family head promptly stepped forward with a twisted smile and said mockingly, ”Su Yang, so you’ve finally come. We thought you might have been scared to death and wouldn’t have dared to show up!”

The crowd around erupted into laughter. Su Yang’s face remained calm as his gaze swept over the fifteen family heads. He spoke softly, ”Do you not remember the promise we made last time at Zilan Manor?”

The leading family head burst into laughter, ”Su Yang, don’t you dare bring up that old nonsense. At Zilan Manor, you forced us not to seek revenge. Damn it, I’ve been bottling up my rage ever since! You killed so many people from our families, and yet you had the audacity to forbid us from retaliating. Back then, you were too powerful, and we had no choice but to yield. But now, things are different. You’ve gone too far, killing members of the Medicine Sect. This time, why should we fear you? No matter how strong you are, can you possibly stand against the Ten Great Sects?”

Su Yang’s expression remained unperturbed as he spoke quietly, ”If memory serves me right, last time you took my Minor Rejuvenation Pills and promised that no matter what happened, you would at least remain neutral—even if you didn’t help me. You also agreed not to take further action against me. Otherwise, I vowed I would not spare you. Do you still remember this?”

”Who the hell are you trying to scare at this point?” another family head snarled in rage. ”Su Yang, the Medicine Sect’s Second Elder is here, along with the experts from the other three sects. Do you really think you have any chance tonight?”

”So, it seems all of you are resolved to stand against me,” Su Yang nodded slowly. ”In that case, I’ll remember this debt. Once tonight’s matter is dealt with, when I come for you in the future, I trust you won’t beg for mercy then!”

”Su Yang, are you daydreaming at a time like this?” another family head ridiculed. ”Look at the situation now—when tonight’s matter concludes, it’ll be the end of you. You think you’ll seek us out afterward? With what? Are you planning to haunt us as a ghost for revenge?”

”Hahaha...” The crowd erupted into laughter again, their faces filled with scorn as they looked at Su Yang, convinced that tonight’s battle would leave him with no chance to survive.

Su Yang paid no heed to their taunts, instead quietly observing the Second Elder and his group in the distance.

Beside the Second Elder sat three individuals: a man dressed in embroidered robes, a rugged man carrying a long blade, and a refined gentleman holding a folding fan.

Upon arriving, Su Yang had already received information from Qinghe Academy regarding the identities of these three.

The man in embroidered robes belonged to Soaring Cloud Hall and was one of its elders. The rugged man wielding the long blade hailed from Heavenly Blade Peak and was the peak’s master.

The refined gentleman, however, had a more remarkable background—he was the fifth son of the master of Horizon’s End and was known as Ki Yongchuan, a famed playboy among the Ten Great Sects.

Seeing Su Yang’s arrival, the four of them turned their gazes toward him simultaneously.

The Second Elder’s eyes carried a tinge of mockery, as if laughing at Su Yang’s foolishness for arriving despite the overwhelming odds. After all, he had absolute strength on his side. Su Yang coming here was tantamount to suicide.

The Soaring Cloud Hall elder remained expressionless, while the Heavenly Blade Peak’s master’s eyes shone with cold brilliance, emanating a palpable killing intent.

Ki Yongchuan, on the other hand, looked at Su Yang with undisguised disdain, as though he was far beneath his notice.

Indeed, Ki Yongchuan had every right to be arrogant. Horizon’s End wielded immense power, and Ki Yongchuan, among the master’s children, ranked in the top three in strength. He governed one of Horizon’s End’s branches, commanding vast resources. Even Su Ze could hardly compare to him.

As for Su Yang, from Ki Yongchuan’s perspective, he was nothing but a lowly insignificant mortal—not worth a second glance.
