Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 1644: Chapter 1643: The Purpose of the Abduction

Su Yang’s eyebrows were also tightly knit; from the state of power within this room, he could basically sense the other party’s cultivation secret techniques.

This was a Demon Sect secret technique somewhat similar to Devouring the World, which Su Yang had read about in the Heavenly Destiny Treasure Book. However, this secret technique was slightly inferior to the one recorded in the Heavenly Destiny Treasure Book; otherwise, the aura wouldn’t be so complex.

And Devouring the World is the pinnacle of all devouring secret techniques. So, although this person is also practicing a devouring secret technique, it’s completely incomparable to Devouring the World.

”How is your granddaughter’s power?” Su Yang asked.

”Power...” The Family Head paused: ”My granddaughter enjoys reading and doesn’t spend much time cultivating. She has only just entered the Fusion Realm now...”

”Fusion Realm?” Su Yang frowned: ”So, your granddaughter’s power is still quite average!”

The Family Head nodded: ”Su Alliance Leader, does this have something to do with my granddaughter’s power?”

”This devouring secret technique requires devouring others to convert their power for one’s own use. The stronger the power of others, the better the devouring effect.” Su Yang said: ”Your granddaughter’s power is far behind his; he shouldn’t want to devour your granddaughter!”

The Family Head immediately breathed a sigh of relief, truly worried that his granddaughter would be directly devoured. If that were the case, there wouldn’t even be a corpse left.

Soon, the people sent out by the Family Head returned. These people had gone to investigate but found no missing persons within the family, which surprised everyone.

Many on the scene quietly looked at Su Yang, clearly suspecting his judgment. After all, there wasn’t even a single corpse or a trace of blood on the scene, yet Su Yang claimed five people were dead, which was hard to believe. So, everyone thought Su Yang must have made a mistake.

Su Yang, however, showed no surprise, his eyebrows furrowed even more. He looked at the Family Head and said solemnly: ”Send someone out to investigate if there are any missing persons from other families in the Capital City.”

At this point, Su Yang paused and said gravely: ”Firstly, investigate people with a yin constitution, under the age of twenty-five, primarily female!”

Everyone was astonished, unsure of Su Yang’s intention.

”Okay, I’ll arrange it now!” The Family Head immediately agreed: ”You all, quickly send people out to investigate this.”

The people designated by the Family Head exchanged glances, reluctant to move. Clearly, the fact that no one had gone missing within the family caused them to question Su Yang’s judgment, thinking his orders might be baseless.

”Su Alliance Leader, why are we investigating this?” one person politely asked: ”The Capital City is so large, investigating such individuals is not easy. My young lady was taken by this person; most of the family members have already gone out to search for them, leaving little manpower for this task.”

Su Yang naturally understood that they were doubting his conjecture and were reluctant to follow his orders. He wasn’t angry, merely stating calmly: ”Your young lady also has a yin constitution, right?”

Once again, the people exchanged glances, faces filled with surprise, as Su Yang’s statement was spot on.

The Family Head quickly nodded: ”What Su Alliance Leader said is absolutely correct; my granddaughter does have a yin constitution. This constitution is more suited to cultivating some yin techniques but has its limitations. Simply put, my granddaughter doesn’t even dare to expose herself to the sun often, as it would harm her body!”

”Su Alliance Leader, how did you know this?” one person beside him asked in astonishment.

Su Yang glanced around and said: ”This room is quite saturated with yin energy yet filled with human presence, indicating that the yin energy originates from someone. The lingering yin energy would require someone with a yin constitution to reside here for a long time. Therefore, the owner of this room must have a yin constitution!”

Everyone looked at each other, their faces filled with shock. No one expected Su Yang to identify the daughter’s constitution from these details.

”Su Alliance Leader, is that why you instructed them to look for other people with a yin constitution?” the Family Head quickly asked: ”Is there something wrong with this constitution?”

”There is nothing wrong with this constitution, but the person who took your granddaughter, he has a problem!” Su Yang said gravely: ”He is practicing a devouring secret technique, and he has reached a crucial stage where he needs to make a breakthrough. One simple method of achieving this breakthrough is to devour nine people with a yin constitution to change his own physique.”

Upon hearing this, everyone on the scene let out a gasp. This meant that the person who took their young lady indeed intended to devour her.

”However, he must devour nine people with a yin constitution all at once,” Su Yang explained: ”I don’t know how many have been taken before your young lady, but since five people are dead here, it indicates that she is not the first. What we must hope for now is that your young lady is not the ninth. Otherwise, once he gathers nine, the devouring will begin, and your young lady will be in grave danger.”

Everyone’s complexion changed, and the Family Head was especially panicked, trembling as he pleaded: ”Su Alliance Leader, please... please save my granddaughter...”

Su Yang replied: ”I’m having you investigate the matter of other kidnapped individuals to save your granddaughter. We know little about this person, and finding him certainly won’t be easy. Since five people died here, and if they weren’t from your family, then they were likely people tracking and finding him. That these individuals could locate him means the forces behind them understand this person quite well. We need to find these forces to gather more information about him before we can locate him!”

Everyone was enlightened, finally understanding Su Yang’s intention. There was no need for instructions from the Family Head; those few immediately ran out to start investigating the matter.

The Family Head heard Su Yang’s analysis, and his heart was filled with panic. Standing by Su Yang, his face was full of unease, utterly losing his composure. This was his most cherished granddaughter, and he feared she would die. Unable to save her himself, he could only stay by Su Yang’s side, completely viewing him as his sole lifeline.

Su Yang appeared calm, but inside he was filled with shock because he understood the strength of this person very well; this person was indeed extremely dangerous!
