Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 1462: Chapter 1461: When the Wall Falls, Everybody Pushes

The crowd present all regarded the Second Elder with mocking expressions. Over the past decade or so, the Medicine Sect has risen to power thanks to three types of elixirs, but in doing so, they’ve accumulated numerous rivals among the Ten Great Sects.

Now, the monopoly of the Medicine Sect has finally been broken, and what follows will undoubtedly be a scenario of everyone taking advantage of their downfall.

At this moment, people had even forgotten about Su Yang’s previous matter. After all, to the Ten Great Sects, Su Yang’s affair was merely a minor issue. The Medicine Sect’s monopoly, however—this is the pivotal matter that directly affects the core interests of all Ten Great Sects!

The headmaster calmly watched the Second Elder as he desperately sought assistance, until his silence gave way to utter disappointment. Only then did the headmaster speak coldly: ”What’s the matter? Why aren’t you continuing? Weren’t you the one accusing us of stealing your refining methods? Why the sudden silence?”

The Second Elder gritted his teeth, his expression dark and grim. He knew that this time, the Medicine Sect had truly suffered a devastating setback.

”Justice resides in the hearts of men!” the Second Elder spat through clenched teeth. ”Don’t assume that by stealing the refining methods of my Medicine Sect, you can truly shake our foundation. My Medicine Sect has more miracle elixirs and medicines—something you can never measure up to!”

”Heh...” The headmaster responded with a cold chuckle.

The Second Elder’s face darkened further. His words were nothing but bravado. He gritted his teeth, turned abruptly, and barked: ”Let’s see how long you can revel in this! We’re leaving!”

The Medicine Sect’s members began to follow the Second Elder to leave. Just then, Su Yang took a step forward and said coldly: ”Second Elder, this matter isn’t over yet. Do you think you can just walk away?”

The Second Elder glared at Su Yang indignantly: ”What do you want now?”

”You’ve killed so many of my brothers. Surely, there must be an explanation for that?” Su Yang demanded.

”You want me to give you an explanation?” the Second Elder barked, his tone icy and furious. ”Qinghe Academy stole the refining methods of my Medicine Sect. Should I then demand an explanation from someone?”

”If you truly believe we stole your refining methods, then bring your people and come kill us!” the headmaster retorted harshly, his voice cold, shocking everyone present.

It was widely known that the headmaster’s temperament was generally mild. Despite the unsatisfactory outcomes of previous negotiations with the Ten Great Sects, he had never uttered a single harsh word. For him to speak like this now demonstrated his deep dissatisfaction with the Medicine Sect!

The Second Elder remained silent. While he wished he could trouble Qinghe Academy, he simply didn’t possess the capability. Qinghe Academy was filled with experts—so much so that even the Martial God Altar couldn’t compete, let alone the Medicine Sect. If they were to truly clash, it’s likely the entire Medicine Sect would perish, yet they might still fail to kill even a few members of Qinghe Academy!

”Did you hear that?” Su Yang sneered. ”The headmaster said you could voice your grievances to them. As for me, I’m extremely dissatisfied with your Medicine Sect, and I’m here to exact vengeance—surely, that’s acceptable?”

The Second Elder trembled with rage, shouting furiously: ”When a tiger falls to the plains, it’s mocked by dogs! And you’re just a nobody—do you think you can seek revenge against us? Do you truly believe our Medicine Sect is so easily bullied?”

”Judging by the current situation, it seems the Medicine Sect *is* rather easy to bully!” Su Yang smirked, sparking laughter among his companions.

The Second Elder, seething with anger, roared: ”Su, do you have a death wish? Let me warn you—if you truly provoke us, I’m willing to kill you personally even if it costs my life at the hands of the Law Enforcers!”

”Then let’s see whose skills reign supreme!” Su Yang declared proudly and coldly. ”Everyone, listen up—today sixteen of our brothers have perished. Therefore, sixteen members of the Medicine Sect must die today!”

The members of the Medicine Sect erupted in uproar. They didn’t bring many people this time—only twenty to thirty in total. Among them, there were only thirteen individuals below the level of Terrestrial Immortal. If Su Yang intended to kill sixteen of them, it meant that three of their Terrestrial Immortals would need to perish here!

”Su, you’re dreaming!” the Second Elder shouted angrily. ”Why don’t you just claim you’ll take me down as well?”

”I’d like to give it a try!” Su Yang sneered, then shouted loudly: ”Brother Lü, lend me a hand!”

”No problem!” Lü Donglin laughed heartily and joined Su Yang, advancing toward the Second Elder from the left and right.

The Second Elder’s face turned icy as he immediately struck out with a palm.

Already prepared, Su Yang had arranged four Divine Beast Jade Stones to form an array, drawing the Second Elder’s power into it. This array, combined with Su Yang’s Devouring the Heavens technique, was capable of temporarily fending off the Second Elder’s attacks!

Lü Donglin seized this moment to rush forward, launching an attack from the side.

The Second Elder’s first strike was ineffective, and he moved swiftly to counter Lü Donglin’s offensive. Yet, as he unleashed his second attack, Su Yang had already advanced, intercepting it. Lü Donglin followed up with another strike, catching the Second Elder off guard and nearly dealing a heavy blow.

Almost losing to two juniors, the Second Elder’s expression became even darker. Taking a deep breath, he unleashed his full strength, aiming to seriously injure the two adversaries.

However, both Su Yang and Lü Donglin were immensely skillful. Moreover, with Su Yang’s four Divine Beast Jade Stones forming an array to withstand the Second Elder’s power, the duo steadily suppressed him, leaving the Second Elder battered and humiliated.

All around, spectators were astonished. Many among them were Terrestrial Immortals, and in their hearts, they calculated their chances of victory if they faced Su Yang and Lü Donglin.

The consensus of most Terrestrial Immortals present was low confidence. The truth was undeniable: Su Yang and Lü Donglin were each capable of taking down a Terrestrial Immortal individually. Together, with the four Divine Beast Jade Stones and the overwhelming Secret Technique of Devouring the Heavens, they could easily overwhelm a formidable Terrestrial Immortal!

Su Yang’s group pressed forward, beginning their assault on the Medicine Sect members.

Meanwhile, factions such as Soaring Cloud Pavilion, Heavenly Blade Peak, and Horizon’s End—who once loudly supported the Medicine Sect—quietly stepped aside, vacating the mountaintop and choosing to observe the scene from a distance.

Old Wang the Second, along with three others, two monks, and Xue Nu, naturally intercepted several Terrestrial Immortals. As for others, like Zhao Hu Zi, they focused their efforts on attacking those below the Terrestrial Immortal level.

The remaining Terrestrial Immortals from the Medicine Sect attempted to retaliate against Su Yang’s group, only to be blocked by members of Qinghe Academy.

”What are you doing?” the Second Elder questioned furiously amid the chaos. ”Qinghe Academy, what does this have to do with you?”

”Haven’t I told you already?” the headmaster said. ”Su Yang is one of our Qinghe Academy members. His affairs are *our* affairs!”

”You...” the Second Elder trembled with rage but found himself helpless.

As he glanced around at the spectators watching with cold sneers, the Second Elder knew—his Medicine Sect had truly fallen victim to the ”everyone kicks the downed wall” phenomenon!
