Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 1647: Chapter 1646: Liu Shuangcan Appears

The little chick hopped around for a while. Seeing that Su Yang was unmoved, it realized its antics were futile and helplessly looked around.

With a swift glance, the little chick suddenly took flight and breathed out a mouthful of flame.

Though the little chick’s size hadn’t changed much recently, its abilities had significantly increased. Now, breathing fire was effortless compared to before, almost as if it was second nature.

A burst of flame shot out, and everyone saw the fire ignite amidst the thick mist. It was as if the mist itself had caught fire. In an instant, the surrounding fog was completely burned away, leaving nothing behind!

Originally, everyone was worried as they watched Su Yang use the Qilin Jade to burn away the mist too slowly since the fog was incredibly dense.

Nobody expected that a single breath of flame from the little chick would resolve everything immediately, causing everyone to cheer joyously. At this point, everyone was saved!

Of course, when everyone looked at the little chick on Su Yang’s shoulder, they were filled with awe and envy. Having such a Divine Bird by one’s side was far more powerful than being followed by a great master!

With the mist burned away, Su Yang dared not delay and said in a deep voice, ”Everyone, retreat immediately!”

Having nearly perished here, they no longer dared to linger, quickly gathering their people to leave.

However, before they could leave the village, they heard a chilling laughter echo from the sky.

”Su Alliance Leader, you truly have some skills. The corpse poison refined from the souls of a hundred thousand people is dissipated by you in an instant; truly impressive!”

The onlookers were all shocked. The mist from earlier was refined from the souls of a hundred thousand people? What a grand scheme!

Su Yang frowned, not doubting the words at all. Upon encountering the mist earlier, he had already suspected it was corpse poison crafted from human souls.

This corpse poison was terrifying; the more people died, the stronger the poison became. The use of a hundred thousand lives to create such poison showed that the adversary was truly determined to kill Su Yang.

In fact, the opponent underestimated Su Yang’s strength. The corpse poison couldn’t harm Su Yang.

If it wasn’t for the people he needed to protect, Su Yang wouldn’t have even needed the little chick to burn away the poison. He could have easily burst out from the mist unharmed.

He waved his hand to urge everyone to leave quickly, while he himself looked to the sky and coldly remarked, ”Liu Shuangcan, I never thought you were still alive!”

”Hahaha...” A loud laugh came from the sky again, followed by a man enveloped in black aura descending from above, landing not far from Su Yang.

Upon seeing the man, Su Yang realized it was Liu Shuangcan, whom he had previously crippled!

However, Liu Shuangcan now seemed far more horrifying than before. Not only was he grotesquely ugly, but his features were twisted, his skin marred by bulging veins and black pustules, resembling a corpse long dead, invoking terror in those who beheld him.

”I never thought you would still remember me, Liu Shuangcan!” Liu Shuangcan sneered, ”Well, Su Alliance Leader, are you surprised to see me again?”

Su Yang’s face was cold as he replied in a steady voice, ”Liu Shuangcan, so it is you! I never expected you could rise again. It must be the Laughing Buddha who helped you. But do you think practicing the Devouring Technique requires no cost? Look at you now, is there any difference between you and a demon? The Laughing Buddha is just using you to deal with me. Are you so glad to be a pawn in his game?”

”Hahaha...” Liu Shuangcan threw his head back laughing, ”Su, you destroyed my martial arts, cast me into the abyss. From that moment, I was already dead. Yes, the Laughing Buddha is using me as a pawn. But, as long as I can take revenge on you, what does it matter if I become a pawn? What does it matter if I turn into a demon?”

Su Yang felt resigned; Liu Shuangcan was truly fixated on revenge. In that case, there was nothing more to say to him.

”If you want revenge, then go ahead!” Su Yang said coldly, ”Here I stand, let’s fight fair, I’ll give you a chance!”

”Even if you don’t want to give me a chance, you can’t!” Liu Shuangcan sneered, ”Aren’t you aware of the current state of affairs? Do you think you’re still that hailed Su Alliance Leader? Now, it’s hard for you to even protect yourself, let alone much else. Do you think these worthless people can help you?”

Beside Su Yang, Zhao Huzi, hearing the exchange and Liu Shuangcan’s words, became displeased.

”What did you say!” Zhao Huzi shouted angrily, making a move forward, only to be pulled back by Su Yang.

Just then, a stream of black mist appeared where he had been a moment ago. Had Su Yang been a split second slower, Zhao Huzi might have perished.

Su Yang casually dispersed the black mist, coldly gazing at Liu Shuangcan. ”This is between you and me, it has nothing to do with them. If you want to fight me, let’s battle in the air, how about that!”

”Hahaha...” Liu Shuangcan laughed raucously, ”Since you’re seeking death, I’ll oblige you. Let’s fight in the sky!”

Liu Shuangcan shouted robustly, and instantly flew high into the sky.

Su Yang glanced at the people around him and said in a deep voice, ”Take them back to the Capital City immediately, don’t linger here; I’m going to meet Liu Shuangcan!”

Everyone nodded, leading their people away quickly.

”Su Alliance Leader, be careful!” Zhao Huzi shouted worriedly.

”No worries, he can’t kill me!” Su Yang said calmly before flying up into the sky as well.

Reaching the deserted heights, Su Yang saw Liu Shuangcan standing on the cloud in the distance.

The black aura around Liu Shuangcan was even thicker. Seeing Su Yang approach, Liu Shuangcan let out an eerie laugh. Before Su Yang could steady himself, Liu Shuangcan waved and released a cloud of black mist.

The black mist rushed at Su Yang, seemingly trying to engulf him.

Su Yang dodged swiftly, but after taking a couple of steps, he sensed something amiss and quickly turned, striking out with a palm.

At that moment, a hand extended from the black mist beside him, meeting his palm squarely, and both of them were forced back several steps.

In the sky, the figure of Liu Shuangcan gradually dissipated, seemingly a mere illusion.

Su Yang furrowed his brow, looking carefully to find Liu Shuangcan standing within another cloud of black mist, watching him with a wicked grin.
