Supreme Warrior in the City

Looking at the expression of the Guard, Su Yang could not help but feel secretly delighted. These people haven’t gone outside yet, unaware of what’s happening, making them the easiest to deceive.

”Just one Su Yang isn’t enough to stir a storm!” the leading Guard said. ”Why should the Divine Lord be troubled over him?”

”If it were just Su Yang, it’d be fine. But the problem is, from the Turquoise Pool, it’s not only Su Yang who has emerged!” Su Yang sighed, ”Following Su Yang out are over seven hundred top-tier cultivators, and all these people are now helping Su Yang with his tasks!”

”What!?” the Guard exclaimed, his eyes nearly bulging out.

”Seven hundred top-tier cultivators?” the Guard shouted, ”Mr. Fang, you must be mistaken, right? How could there be so many top-tier cultivators?”

”How could I be mistaken, I saw it with my own eyes!” Su Yang said, ”I was also severely injured by them, and the Divine Lord thought I had merit, so he let me come to the Divine Palace to heal!”

On this point, the Guard did not doubt much. The Spiritual Energy inside the World Melting Furnace is far more abundant than outside, and if someone from the Divine Lord’s side has merit, the Divine Lord would allow them into the World Melting Furnace to cultivate. Of course, if injured, they could also come to the World Melting Furnace to recover.

”You saw it with your own eyes?” the Guard asked in shock, ”Are you sure there were that many top-tier cultivators?”

”I was perplexed too; later, the Divine Lord explained it to me.” Su Yang said, ”The Divine Lord said those top-tier cultivators were those originally trapped in the Feather Spirit Palace. They stayed inside for so long, their strength greatly improved. The Feather Spirit Palace sealed the Turquoise Pool, and these people entered. Su Yang freed these people when he left the Turquoise Pool. Grateful for Su Yang’s rescue, they started assisting him!”

”This... this...” the Guard stood with his mouth open, speechless for a long time.

This explanation, said to be from the Divine Lord, left the Guard no choice but to believe.

Moreover, upon careful thought, it seemed plausible. The Feather Spirit Palace has trapped numerous experts over the years. It wasn’t odd for so many top-tier cultivators to emerge.

”So, this Su surnamed person indeed turned misfortune into luck?” the Guard said, utterly confused.

”More than that!” Su Yang continued to deceive, ”Not only did Su Yang bring out a group of experts from the Feather Spirit Palace, but even the Martial Champion Zhang Family in the Capital City started to act, aiding Su Yang against us. Ah, outside now, truly is a turbulent time of instability!”

The Guard looked panicked; even the Martial Champion Zhang Family was involved, making this matter truly troublesome. The Divine Lord truly faced his greatest crisis now!

Seeing the Guard’s expression, Su Yang felt even more secretly delighted. This Guard wasn’t the type with a clever mind.

”No wonder last time Liao Yuxuan and others charged out!” the Guard sighed softly, ”It was all for this matter. Ah, most of our people are busy; otherwise, we wouldn’t fear them!”

Su Yang’s heart stirred; what the Guard said conveyed vital information. Most of them are busy—who does he mean?

Here is the World Melting Furnace, where the Divine Lord’s side keeps those three or four hundred Possessors. Including Liao Yuxuan, who counts as a Possessor. So, the Guard meant those Possessors.

But what are these Possessors busy with now? Outside is so chaotic, yet they are not sent out. Why?

Filled with curiosity, Su Yang began acting again. He sighed helplessly, ”Ah, the situation outside is extremely complex now. The Divine Lord previously expressed thoughts; if resistance becomes impossible, then perhaps... perhaps we might have to...”

Su Yang didn’t continue, but his eyes turned far away, as if he had something critical he could not voice.

The Guard widened his eyes, watching Su Yang in shock: ”Impossible, right? Mr. Fang, the Divine Lord wouldn’t... wouldn’t do that, right? What they aim for is the most crucial. Compared to what they want, what does the Human World matter? Even if it’s truly lost, as long as the Divine Lord fully controls the World Melting Furnace and Storm Valley, it’ll be worth it. With full control over the World Melting Furnace and Storm Valley, even the Nine Realms would be at the Divine Lord’s feet!”

These words shook Su Yang to his core; he initially intended only to deceive and see if he could glean some secrets, yet this Guard cooperated so well and shared so much.

Most crucially, these secrets were awe-inspiring!

Controlling the World Melting Furnace, controlling Storm Valley?

How could he accomplish it?

Su Yang had some understanding of the World Melting Furnace’s situation. He might use the World Melting Furnace, but it didn’t mean he could control it.

The World Melting Furnace contained numerous unknown regions, numerous mysteries. Not to mention the Fierce Beasts within, they’re not something just anyone can control.

Moreover, there are mysterious valleys here, noted earlier by the stout fellow.

Su Yang didn’t know the situation within the valleys, but undoubtedly, the presence in those valleys could only be more terrifying.

Under such circumstances, the Divine Lord intended to control the World Melting Furnace? What gives him the confidence?

Moreover, the Divine Lord wishes to control Storm Valley, an even more stunning ambition!

Storm Valley, known as one of the three major danger zones, an area inaccessible even to the Eight Realms, and the Divine Lord wants it under his control, what faith backs this plan?

Furthermore, why are controlling the World Melting Furnace and Storm Valley linked together? What’s the connection between them?

What exactly is the Divine Lord up to?

He keeps those three or four hundred Possessors inside the World Melting Furnace, forbidding them to leave, but what are they busy with?

According to the Guard, what the three or four hundred Possessors are doing is crucial to the Divine Lord’s plan; why is that?

He dismisses the Nine Realms without concern, what does that imply?

Could the Divine Lord’s ambitions extend beyond the Human World, not even fitting within the Nine Realms?

Who exactly is the Divine Lord, and why does he possess such heaven-defying ambitions?

Su Yang was filled with confusion and shock, unable to comprehend the situation.

The Divine Lord is indeed so mysterious, laden with various secrets, leaving Su Yang unable to grasp the situation. Perhaps only by deciphering the Divine Lord’s identity can all these mysteries be unraveled.
