Supreme Warrior in the City

The light of the Yaochi Immortal Array outside enveloped the first batch of Winged Cultivators within.

At the same time, at the entrance of the valley, the same light suddenly shone. Surrounding it, there appeared another group of people, deploying the same array, including Su Yang, who was trapped by those beams.

”Hahaha...” The Divine Master laughed wildly, rushed over, and with a wave of his hand, grabbed the World Melting Furnace that had replaced the valley’s entrance.

”Indeed, this is it!” The Divine Master held the World Melting Furnace and laughed, ”It’s truly a treasure. Su Yang, it’s wasted in your hands!”

This sudden turn of events left Su Yang stunned. He stared in astonishment at the Divine Master, his expression changing rapidly; he realized he had been tricked by the Divine Master.

”You... What are you doing?” Su Yang said in a deep voice.

”Doing what?” The Divine Master laughed heartily, ”Can’t you tell? I’m dealing with these Winged Cultivators who claim to be descendants of the Feather Clan and want to bring back the Feather Realm. I intend to catch them all in one swoop!”

”Then what do you mean by this?” Su Yang asked in a deep voice.

”Hehe, what do I mean?” The Divine Master sneered, ”Don’t you understand yet? My plan is not only aimed at those Winged Cultivators, but also at you!”

”At me?” Su Yang became anxious, ”You and I have no grievances, why target me in such a way?”

The Divine Master sneered, ”You’re right, we indeed have no grievances. But, haven’t you heard the saying, ’An innocent man gets into trouble for his wealth’?”

Suddenly, Su Yang’s face changed; it was clear that the Divine Master was after the treasures on him.

”The World Melting Furnace, Heavenly Destiny Treasure Book, and Heavenly Compass should not belong to you!” The Divine Master said coldly, ”Hand over these things, and I’ll spare your life!”

Su Yang’s expression turned icy as he gritted his teeth, ”I thought you were a good man fighting for the Human World, but it turns out you’re just a despicable and shameless person!”

”You’re mistaken, I am actually a good man!” The Divine Master laughed, ”Rest assured, I will still fight for the Human World!”

”Is this what you call fighting for the Human World?” Su Yang said coldly.

”There’s no contradiction!” The Divine Master laughed, ”I want to become stronger, naturally I need some treasures. Once I become powerful, I will still fight for the Human World. What’s the problem with that? Who said that fighting for the Human World means I can’t deal with you? Do you represent the Human World?”

Su Yang was at a loss for words, and after a long pause, he angrily retorted, ”You, being the Divine Master, resorting to such lowly tactics, don’t you feel ashamed?”

”Ashamed, why?” The Divine Master sneered, and then viciously said, ”Su Yang, do you know anything? You are the Su Alliance Leader endorsed by Qinghe Academy, the so-called hope of the Human World, the future leader of the people of the Human World, a high and mighty figure. But do you know what kind of life we live?”

”Chosen by the Heavenly Realm, forced to fight for them, ultimately dying miserably with souls without a home. Forced to return to the Human World, yet no place for us there either. We have to fend for ourselves to become human again. Yes, we hate the Heavenly Realm; we are indeed members of the Human World. But what status do we have in the Human World?”

”In the eyes of the Human World, there is only Qinghe Academy, only the Ten Great Sects, only you Su Alliance Leader. And us? We are merely reborn people, in the eyes of the so-called righteous path, we are just vermin everyone shouts to beat down. You’re talking about lowly tactics? Yes, we are indeed a bunch of lowly ones. But, so what?”

”This time, we can annihilate these Winged Cultivators completely. I’ll take the World Melting Furnace, the Heavenly Destiny Treasure Book, and the Heavenly Compass, then we can also fight for the Human World. We can repel all Overseas Practitioners, defeat the Four Major Sects, shatter the Heavenly Road, and restore peace to the Human World entirely. Then we will be the saviors of the Human World, revered as gods, no longer those despised rats, you understand?”

Su Yang was stunned; he didn’t expect such resentment within the hearts of the Divine Master and his people!

”So, you... set this trap to deal with me?” Su Yang said in a deep voice.

”You’re wrong, this trap wasn’t originally meant for you!” The Divine Master smiled faintly and shook his head, ”This trap was initially prepared for Qinghe Academy and the Ten Great Sects. Do you remember that thing I told you? Seven years ago, a hunter discovered a scythe on Kunlun Mountain, which is a magic artifact of a Winged Cultivator.”

Su Yang’s expression changed immediately, he suddenly somewhat understood the Divine Master’s plan, and angrily said, ”That... that was you?”

”Clever!” The Divine Master laughed, ”No wonder Qinghe Academy chose you as the Alliance Leader, your wit is indeed quite sharp. You’re right, that scythe was indeed placed by me; I deliberately drew the attention of those Winged Cultivators here. At the same time, I had to attract Qinghe Academy’s attention here as well. When those Winged Cultivators began their massive entry into Kunlun Mountain, I planned to also draw Qinghe Academy there. Solve the issue of these Winged Cultivators here, as well as the dean, then rescue the people of Qinghe Academy. In this way, I’d solve the issue of those Winged Cultivators while saving Qinghe Academy, two achievements sufficient to earn us respect!”

Su Yang looked angrily at the Divine Master; he couldn’t believe the Divine Master was such a person. This man’s wit was not far behind the Jade-faced Judge. He had been planning all this for a long time, yet no one in the world had seen through his scheme, nor had anyone realized his sinister ambitions, which is truly remarkable!

”Unfortunately, circumstances developed beyond my expectations.” The Divine Master sighed, ”Qinghe Academy, including those Land Immortals from Huaxia, were forcefully taken away by the Heavenly Court. And just then, these Winged Cultivators entered here, leaving me no choice but to target you. I was still wondering how to lure you to Kunlun Mountain. Unexpectedly, you cooperated so well, coming to Kunlun Mountain by yourself, saving me quite a bit of trouble. Su Alliance Leader, speaking of this, I should thank you!”

Su Yang gritted his teeth in anger; never would he have imagined Kunlun Mountain was such a fraudulent setup.

”What do you mean by that?” A Winged Cultivator could no longer hold back and angrily said, ”That scythe, is... it fake?”

The Divine Master laughed, ”Of course the scythe isn’t fake, how could I fake something belonging to you Winged Cultivators? If it were fake, how could I deceive you?”
