Supreme Warrior in the City

”First of all, the speed of the Saint Venerable is much faster than yours, at least ten times faster.” Long Qiu: ”Moreover, in its territory, there are so many Holy Beasts at its command, usually, these Holy Beasts help manage things for it, so it doesn’t need to do anything itself.”

”In fact, the Saint Venerable rarely leaves its territory, unless faced with an external invasion or matters that the Holy Beasts cannot resolve. Otherwise, it could probably stay in its dwelling for thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years without stepping out.”

Su Yang mumbled after a moment, ”A turtle that doesn’t move.”

”What do you mean?” Long Qiu asked in confusion. Although it could communicate with Su Yang, it didn’t mean it understood the idioms of the Human World.

”It’s nothing, just praising it!” Su Yang said, ”Praising its steadiness.”

”Oh, indeed.” Long Qiu nodded, ”The Saint Venerable handles matters with such steadiness.”

Su Yang rolled his eyes.

After flying in this area for two months, Su Yang sensed the aura of Holy Beasts several times but found nothing upon arriving.

”What is up with these Holy Beasts? Why are they running around aimlessly? It’s going to be so hard to find them this way.” Su Yang asked Long Qiu, ”Don’t they have a fixed territory?”

”No!” Long Qiu shook its head, ”You’ve sensed it too, this aura is different from the territory of the Saint Venerable. There’s no spiritual energy here, so it’s not suitable for cultivation. For Holy Beasts to survive and cultivate, they must continually hunt other Demon Beasts. Thus, the Holy Beasts here don’t have a fixed area, spending most of their time wandering around looking for prey. They only appear when prey does. Otherwise, finding them is extremely difficult.”

”Oh?” Su Yang’s eyes lit up, ”Does that mean we can lure them out with bait?”

”That’s obvious...” Long Qiu had just begun to reply when Su Yang trapped it.

”Hey, what are you doing? Why are you trapping me?” Long Qiu asked in shock.

Su Yang: ”It’s nothing, nothing, don’t be scared, just using you as bait, no need to worry.”

”What the heck?” Long Qiu panicked, ”Bro, stop it. That’s a Holy Beast, it could swallow me in a second. You... don’t play like this, I’m scared...”

”Scared of what? We have several experts here, why panic?” Su Yang waved his hand, continuing, ”Besides, if you act as bait, there are certainly benefits for you. If you can lure two Holy Beasts, I’ll give you half a Heart of the Holy Beast, giving you a chance to reach the Holy Beast Realm. If you can lure three, I’ll give you a full Heart of the Holy Beast, isn’t that a good deal?”

Long Qiu pondered with wide eyes for a while, then nodded fiercely, ”Let’s start!”

Money indeed moves mountains!

Su Yang sighed, waved his hand to let the three Crystal Skulls hide in different places, and he too concealed his aura, suppressing his power to avoid being detected by other Holy Beasts.

So they waited there for a week. Just as Su Yang was beginning to doubt the effectiveness of his method, a thrilling aura suddenly came from afar. Immediately, a giant beast that could block out the sky swiftly flew over from the distance.

From afar, Su Yang saw the giant beast, which appeared to be like a pangolin. However, its size was too immense—looking like a moving mountain, adding to its terrifying appearance.

Seeing Long Qiu, it seemed quite excited and charged at Long Qiu roaring.

Long Qiu was so frightened that it shivered all over, yet it still managed to hang on, not calling for help from Su Yang. It had to bring this Holy Beast over to count as truly luring one in. If it could lure two Holy Beasts, it could get half a Heart of the Holy Beast.

Given Long Qiu’s current strength, with half a Heart of the Holy Beast, it would almost be able to advance to the Holy Beast Realm. If it obtained a complete Heart of the Holy Beast, it would surely advance, and even leap forward significantly within the realm.

The pangolin seemed huge and clumsy, but in fact, it was incredibly fast, swooping down on Long Qiu with a whistling speed.

Feeling the fierce aura of the Holy Beast, Long Qiu was so scared it went limp, anxiously glancing toward Su Yang.

However, Su Yang showed no intention of intervening, not even revealing himself.

This left Long Qiu bewildered, thinking, what’s Su Yang up to? Planning to let others do the dirty work?

The pangolin didn’t notice anything unusual. Seeing Long Qiu, it gleamed with excitement and opened its large mouth to swallow Long Qiu.

Just when Long Qiu was about to be swallowed, it suddenly raised its head, looking sharply into the distance.

A dazzling beam, like lightning, quickly approached.

The pangolin roared, raised its claws, and struck out. But the beam was too fast, easily dodging its claws and slamming into its body.

The pangolin was knocked back more than a thousand meters, and at this moment, the beam landed on the ground. Long Qiu clearly saw a flaming Flying Bird, about the size of a human fist.

Nevertheless, the aura of this Flying Bird was no less impressive than that of the pangolin, another powerful Holy Beast!

Long Qiu was stunned for a moment, then delighted. This was truly a case of searching high and low only to find it without effort.

It winked toward Su Yang’s hiding spot in the distance, energetically swinging its hefty tail, signaling to Su Yang they had attracted two Holy Beasts.

Now, it finally understood why Su Yang hadn’t intervened. Su Yang had sensed the Flying Bird’s presence and was waiting for it to arrive.

The Flying Bird and the pangolin began to face off. It seemed these two were old enemies, glaring at each other fiercely upon meeting. Not long after, they roared and started fighting.

Long Qiu, restrained by Su Yang’s power, couldn’t run and was tossed around by the battle’s aftermath.

Fortunately, Su Yang’s power not only restrained but also protected it; otherwise, with its strength, any random shockwave from the battle could have crushed it.

Su Yang watched from the shadows. With two Holy Beasts appearing together, he was in no hurry to make a move. He wanted to wait for these two Holy Beasts to wear each other down before taking action, which would save them a lot of effort, far better than if the two Holy Beasts teamed up.

This great battle lasted about half a day, ultimately with the Flying Bird gaining the upper hand, causing the pangolin to flee in defeat.

Seeing this, Su Yang immediately communicated with the three Crystal Skulls, instructing them to chase after the pangolin.
