Supreme Warrior in the City

The Ghost Tomb guards the outskirts of the city, where the Sect Leader of Tianya Haijiao and the Sky Blade Peak Master met, simultaneously encountering the Land Immortal stationed here.

”Are you saying that Su Yang suddenly accelerated in his run after entering the woods?” The Sky Blade Peak Master frowned, ”Did he notice you?”

”I don’t think so.” The Land Immortal shook his head, ”I was worried he might notice me, so I was exceptionally cautious along the way. He should not have discovered me.”

”If he didn’t notice you, then why did he suddenly speed up and run away?” The Sky Blade Peak Master asked in a low voice.

The Land Immortal was instantly silent, unsure of how to respond.

The Sky Blade Peak Master frowned deeply, looking at the Sect Leader of Tianya Haijiao, ”Sect Leader Qi, what do you make of this matter?”

The Sect Leader waved his hand, offering no response.

At this moment, a complacent voice sounded from outside the door, ”I think this is entirely Su Yang’s strategy!”

The Sky Blade Peak Master had long heard the commotion outside; upon hearing this voice, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, though his face remained unchanged, ”Oh, what kind of strategy might this be?”

”Is it necessary to even say?” A group of people walked in from outside, led by none other than Ge Kaiyang.

Ge Kaiyang, being the grandson of the Jade-faced Judge and the disciple of the Second Elder of the Medicine Sect, held a high status among the four major sects.

Moreover, the last time the Buddha Palace was defeated, the Jade-faced Judge played a significant role in it. In addition, the Jade-faced Judge had given the Medicine Sect several important elixirs, raising the Second Elder’s status considerably. Thus, the Second Elder held Ge Kaiyang in extremely high regard.

Even in front of someone like Qi Yongchuan, the young master of a major sect, Ge Kaiyang showed no fear whatsoever. In fact, even when facing these sect leaders, Ge Kaiyang showed little respect.

This situation always left the Sky Blade Peak Master quite dissatisfied. However, due to the Second Elder’s face, he never said anything and simply chose to ignore it.

Whereas, for the Sect Leader of Tianya Haijiao, it became somewhat awkward.

Although Tianya Haijiao is one of the four major sects, it suffered a huge loss after being tricked by Su Yang last time. Now, even though Tianya Haijiao remains one of the four major sects, its actual strength falls far short of the other three sects, naturally making its position among the four major sects extremely low.

Because of this, Ge Kaiyang even dared to disregard the Sect Leader of Tianya Haijiao, often provoking him openly and covertly. The Sect Leader of Tianya Haijiao managed to contain his temper, but if not for his fear of Ge Kaiyang’s master, the Second Elder, the Sect Leader of Tianya Haijiao would have killed Ge Kaiyang long ago!

Now Ge Kaiyang had entered, the Sect Leader of Tianya Haijiao turned his head to the side, pretending not to see him.

Ge Kaiyang glanced at him, a cold smile briefly passing over his lips, unconcerned.

Ge Kaiyang’s current desire is to pull Tianya Haijiao down from its position among the four major sects, allowing his grandfather, the Jade-faced Judge, to become one of the sects. This way, his grandfather’s side could hold significant power. Therefore, he constantly provoked the Sect Leader of Tianya Haijiao, hoping to incite a war.

”I see both elders are present; it looks like I’m running late!” Ge Kaiyang entered the room, smiling broadly, appearing genuinely naive.

The Sect Leader of Tianya Haijiao ignored him, while the Sky Blade Peak Master merely smiled, ”Distances vary, so arrival speeds differ naturally. You mentioned Su Yang has a strategy, what do you mean by that? What is his strategy?”

”This matter is quite simple!” Ge Kaiyang laughed, ”That Su character always acts sly and cunning, everyone should deeply understand this point!”

While saying this, Ge Kaiyang cast a profound look at the Sect Leader of Tianya Haijiao. After all, Tianya Haijiao suffered the most from being tricked by Su Yang.

The Sect Leader of Tianya Haijiao had a cold expression, speaking in a low voice, ”That’s correct, we all have deep experiences!”

The Sect Leader of Tianya Haijiao was also mocking Ge Kaiyang, since Ge Kaiyang had suffered losses under Su Yang’s hand several times too. This issue, Ge Kaiyang couldn’t escape.

Ge Kaiyang’s expression turned awkward; he hadn’t expected his sarcastic comment to backfire.

Furiously glancing at the Sect Leader of Tianya Haijiao, Ge Kaiyang spoke coldly, ”That Su person operates slyly and insidiously. With his personality, he could hide for so long without our notice, logically, he should continue to hide. After all, he knows clearly, once he shows up, our Heavenly Court certainly won’t spare him. Yet, why has he suddenly appeared?”

”Moreover, he’s done so many things, even collaborating with Paradise? Everyone mustn’t forget, that Su character’s relationship with Paradise isn’t exactly harmonious. Not to mention the entanglement with Ye Sword Saint, but the conflict with those practitioners from Japan makes it impossible for him to have a smooth relationship with Paradise. Besides, given Su Yang’s personality, how could he possibly ally with these overseas practitioners?”

The crowd nodded; Ge Kaiyang’s words were indeed truthful; considering Su Yang’s personality, he would definitely not do this sort of thing.

”Do you mean...” The Sky Blade Peak Master spoke in a low voice, ”Su Yang’s goal is to ally with Paradise to deal with us?”

”Or perhaps, he wants us and Paradise to suffer mutual losses, where no one benefits, and he can reap the benefits as a third party!” Ge Kaiyang said.

Everyone exchanged looks, this was indeed very possible.

”Saying that, then what are we waiting for now?” A Land Immortal quickly said, ”Let’s hurry and find the people from Paradise to clarify this matter, so they don’t fall for Su Yang’s trap!”

Ge Kaiyang looked at this Land Immortal, this person is an expert from Lingxiao Hall, precisely someone Ge Kaiyang wanted to become associated with. Therefore, the sarcastic comment initially rolling on Ge Kaiyang’s tongue was swallowed back, and he smiled, ”This isn’t suitable; firstly, Paradise may not believe us. Secondly, the people from Paradise aren’t fools; Su Yang’s intentions are quite obvious to them too. Speaking with them doesn’t hold much meaning, and won’t change Paradise’s plans!”

Everyone was stunned; the Sky Blade Peak Master curiously asked, ”What is Paradise’s plan?”

”Similar to ours!” Ge Kaiyang said, ”To obtain Su Yang’s possessions and then kill Su Yang!”

Everyone nodded; they completely believed Ge Kaiyang’s words.

Su Yang has the Heavenly Destiny Treasure Book and the Heavenly Destiny Compass, along with many alchemical methods, and numerous secrets from Qinghe Academy. These are indeed possessions that both the Heavenly Court and Paradise desire!
