Supreme Warrior in the City

Su Yang glanced at the elder from the Ghost Realm. Seeing that he ultimately didn’t dare to lose his temper, he shrugged regretfully.

”Cloud Emperor, since you said you would give me a satisfactory answer, you can start now,” Su Yang said loudly. ”Do what you should do, and then we can have a good talk about other matters!”

Cloud Emperor was momentarily stunned; his earlier words had been a stalling tactic to keep Su Yang calm. But Su Yang’s straightforwardness caught him off guard, expecting him to solve the matter just like that—how could he do so?

If they were to truly enforce the rules of the Human World as punishment, many people in the Seven Realms would die this time.

Although Cloud Emperor was the strongest and held the highest status among those present, this did not mean he could command the Seven Realms. Especially when it came to having the Seven Realms execute those who violated the rules, that was simply impossible. So, when he said he would solve this matter, it was just a casual remark—he simply couldn’t resolve it.

Taking a deep breath, Cloud Emperor said solemnly, ”These people have violated the Human World’s rules and must be severely punished. From now on, they will be confined and not allowed to take a step out until the Feather Spirit Palace opens...”

”Pah!” Su Yang interrupted Cloud Emperor, spitting disdainfully. ”You really have no shame, do you? Is this your idea of severe punishment? Fine, how about this: I’ll kill some people from the Seven Realms, and you can severely punish me by confining me. How does that sound?”

Cloud Emperor’s face was awkward as he said in a low voice, ”Su Alliance Leader, what do you want us to do then?”

”Just do as the rules dictate!” Su Yang responded coldly. ”Do I need to teach you? You came to the Human World; haven’t you memorized our rules?”

Cloud Emperor’s expression turned even sourer as he replied, ”Su Alliance Leader, if we did as you said, at least one-third of the people from the Seven Realms would have to sacrifice their lives. Does this matter really need to escalate to such an extent?”

”Ha...” Su Yang chuckled coldly. ”Did you think about how big this would become when you harmed members of the Human World? Now, you’re telling me it’s escalated too far? Since you knew it could escalate, why did you break the Human World’s rules in the first place?”

”Su, don’t push it too far!” the elder from the Ghost Realm finally couldn’t bear it. ”Don’t think you have us cornered! Let me tell you, there’s no way the Seven Realms will lose so many people. If you insist on this, we’ll fight to the bitter end. Even if we all die in battle, we will never retreat!”

At this point, others from the Seven Realms also voiced their support. On this matter, their stance was unanimous. They truly couldn’t allow Su Yang to kill so many of them.

”Oh, you want to go head-to-head with me?” Su Yang sneered. ”Very well, haven’t I said before? Let’s go for a fight to the death. Anyway, if you don’t abide by the Human World’s rules, the Human World’s doom is only a matter of time. Before that, if we can kill all of you, we can at least bring someone down with us in our final moments, right? If you want to fight, fine, let’s start. Dean, you stay here with your men, and I’ll go sever the Heavenly Road. Let’s go for a total showdown!”

As Su Yang spoke, he turned and was about to leave. Cloud Emperor’s expression changed anxiously as he quickly stopped Su Yang.

”Su Alliance Leader, there’s no need to be so impulsive!” Cloud Emperor urged. ”This matter concerns the Human World’s survival; it’s not a time for acting on impulse.”

After speaking, Cloud Emperor glanced at the others coldly. ”You all should speak less. You were the ones who violated the Human World’s rules first. Do you think you have any justification now?”

Truth be told, those from the Seven Realms were also quite nervous. Su Yang’s demeanor clearly indicated he was ready for an all-out confrontation with them.

Despite their earlier bold words, they were quite fond of life. If Su Yang truly severed the Heavenly Road, it would indeed be a fight to the death. They would likely all meet their end in the Human World.

Even the elder from the Ghost Realm quieted down, no longer daring to provoke Su Yang.

”Cloud Emperor, you can’t resolve this, nor do you allow us to fight. What exactly do you intend to do?” Su Yang asked coldly.

Cloud Emperor’s face was awkward. After a moment’s thought, he softly said, ”Su Alliance Leader, as the saying goes, it’s better to resolve enmities than to make them. Although they broke the Human World’s rules, if we truly kill them all, it would mean making an eternal enemy of the Seven Realms. While the Human World is still able to negotiate with the Eight Realms due to the Feather Spirit Palace issue, once we have such an unforgivable grudge with the Seven Realms, will the Seven Realms spare the Human World after the Feather Spirit Palace issue is resolved?”

Su Yang’s expression remained icy as he replied, ”Do you think the Human World is afraid?”

”It’s not about fear, but about whether it’s worth it!” Cloud Emperor insisted. ”Su Alliance Leader, I know that the Human World has always been about preferring to break than to bend. But is it worth the entire Human World’s destruction and the extermination of the Human Clan over this small matter? Would it be meaningful to drag billions down over a momentary dispute?”

Su Yang remained silent, merely observing Cloud Emperor with cold eyes, as if he were somewhat convinced by his words.

Cloud Emperor felt a glimmer of hope. If Su Yang was willing to listen to him, perhaps this matter could be salvaged.

”Su Alliance Leader, in my opinion, there’s no need to go this far. They indeed violated the Human World’s rules, but we could use a different method to punish them,” Cloud Emperor suggested. ”For instance, they could compensate with something valuable, or perhaps the Seven Realms could make some concessions as compensation to the Human World. There’s no need to kill them all or to irreversibly make enemies of the Seven Realms, don’t you think?”

Su Yang pondered for a while, seemingly swayed, and replied in a deep voice, ”If that’s the case, then I have a request. The number of people from the Seven Realms in the Human World should be halved from before!”

”What!?” Everyone exclaimed in disbelief, and Cloud Emperor’s eyes widened—this demand was excessively harsh, wasn’t it?

Previously, the members from the Seven Realms who entered the Human World were still not a match for the Human World. Now, Su Yang wanted them to retreat further by half, making them entirely subjected to the Human World’s control. Wouldn’t they then be helpless?

”Su Alliance Leader...” Cloud Emperor began, but Su Yang immediately interrupted with a furious shout, ”If you’re not willing to agree to this, then there’s nothing more to discuss. If you want to fight, let’s begin now!”

Su Yang’s presence was overwhelming, signaling he was genuinely ready for battle. On the Human World’s side, everyone came forward, ready to engage in a life-and-death struggle with those from the Seven Realms at Su Yang’s command!
