Supreme Warrior in the City

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the three Saint Emperors changed again. Going to the Heavenly War Alliance at this time, isn’t this more dangerous? You must know that over at the Heavenly War Alliance, there’s also the Demon Beast Clan, searching for them everywhere. They head over now, can they still escape?

”Lord Xuanming, is this second matter suitable?” The leading Saint Emperor asked, ”If we go to the Heavenly War Alliance, will we still be able to leave?”

”Don’t worry, I have my arrangements!” Su Yang said coldly, ”There is certainly some danger, but as long as you do as I instruct, there won’t be any issues. Besides, fortune favors the bold. Do you really think killing a few Demon Beast Saint Emperors will get you the favor of the Guardian God, will get you the Secret Technique of the Guardian God? The more you give, the more you gain, your input and output are directly proportional. If there’s no danger, would we need to do this?”

The three Saint Emperors lowered their heads without saying a word, yet they agreed with Su Yang’s words. One must invest to gain, willing to give to harvest.

”Enough, I won’t waste words with you!” Su Yang said, ”The second matter is more dangerous, so, I’ll choose the second. However, among you, one must come with me to handle this second task. The other two should go to the location I mentioned to ambush a Demon Beast Saint Emperor. Among you three, who will come with me?”

The three exchanged glances, pondering for a while before the leading Saint Emperor clenched his teeth and said, ”Lord Xuanming, I will go with you. You two, go ambush that Demon Beast Saint Emperor!”

The other two sighed with relief and nodded, ”Alright!”

Su Yang nodded in satisfaction, clarified the destination, and then left with the leading Saint Emperor.

The remaining two Saint Emperors didn’t delay, swiftly moving according to Su Yang’s order, rushing to the designated place to prepare to ambush the Demon Beast Saint Emperor.

Su Yang took the lead Saint Emperor, tearing through space a dozen times, arriving in a deserted area.

Looking around reassuredly, the Saint Emperor said in surprise, ”Lord Xuanming, aren’t we going to the Heavenly War Alliance? This direction isn’t leading there!”

”Of course I know!” Su Yang said, ”Can we just enter the Heavenly War Alliance directly? There are people everywhere searching for us; heading straight in would be suicide. Circuitously entering is the most suitable method, understand?”

”Oh!” The Saint Emperor suddenly understood, feeling much more at ease. Honestly, venturing directly from the front, he’d be nervous; it’s too easy for the Heavenly War Alliance to notice us.

But venturing circuitously, that’s much better. Perhaps, finishing the task, the Heavenly War Alliance hasn’t discovered them yet; then there’s no danger at all, right?

”Here, follow this direction, you tear through space!” Su Yang took a deep breath, ”I’ll rest for a bit first!”

Tearing through space is very power-consuming. Even for a Saint Emperor, going at full force, it’s hard to endure. However, Saint Emperors recover their power quickly, so it’s not a big deal. But continually tearing through space requires intermittent resting.

”Yes, my lord, you rest, leave it to me!” The leading Saint Emperor immediately nodded and bowed, took the Round Disc from Su Yang’s hand, and began tearing through space, leading Su Yang forward.

Su Yang watched from behind, after tearing through space a dozen continuous times, this Saint Emperor’s power was nearly depleted.

”My lord, wait a moment while I recover!” The Saint Emperor said with a smile.

”No problem!” Su Yang nodded, as the Saint Emperor took a deep breath, got out a piece of Spiritual Source to absorb.

At that moment, he suddenly sensed something amiss behind him. Turning around, he saw Su Yang wielding a long knife, slashing toward him.

Before the Saint Emperor could react, the long knife cut him open. The knife’s power was beyond imagination; one slash broke his body apart, he suffered severe injuries, and it became hard for the meat body to recover.

Meanwhile, an Illusion rose behind Su Yang, opening its mouth and swallowing him inside.

Being devoured by the Illusion, at the final moment, this Saint Emperor uttered a very unwilling, ”Why!?”

After devouring the Saint Emperor, Su Yang instantly withdrew the Illusion and quickly tore through space to leave this area.

As for why?

Su Yang certainly wouldn’t offer him an explanation.

In fact, from the moment he brought out these three Saint Emperors, their fates were already decided. All three were destined to die. However, before dying, Su Yang planned to use them to further deepen the enmity between the Heavenly War Alliance and Demon Beast Clan, allowing them to live for a while longer.

This Saint Emperor’s power was too weak, combined with Su Yang’s sneak attack, made ending him easily. If facing a stronger Demon Beast Saint Emperor, even with a sneak attack, Su Yang couldn’t cleanly kill him.

Finding a secluded area, Su Yang released three Crystal Skulls, guarding nearby. He sat cross-legged, starting to digest the Saint Emperors previously devoured.

Previously, in the Demon Beast Dynasty, he slew five Demon Beast Saint Emperors, all devoured by Su Yang.

This was also why Su Yang used the Devouring Secret Technique to absorb these Saint Emperors, otherwise, killing a Saint Emperor wasn’t an easy feat. Having cultivated to the Saint Emperor Realm basically meant being immortal in a hundred battles, even just one hair or drop of blood left, could quickly resurrect. Thus, generally, to kill a Saint Emperor, one must obliterate him entirely to count as exterminated.

Su Yang’s methods are much more accessible; he has the Devouring Secret Technique and the Illusion’s aid. All it takes is severely injuring the Saint Emperor, shattering their body, swallowing them; the Illusion then suppresses the Saint Emperor, preventing resurrection.

Thus, Su Yang and the others could slay five Demon Beast Saint Emperors in such a short time. Adding the Human Race Saint Emperor just slain, Su Yang devoured six Saint Emperors.

If not for Su Yang’s current strength rivaling a Saint Emperor, his body would’ve collapsed long ago.

Even with the Illusion’s assistance, Su Yang feels his internal power is about to rupture. Hence, he must quickly digest, or else he won’t last long.

Of course, with Su Yang’s current strength, digesting these Saint Emperors’ power is much faster than before.

Sitting there for ten days, Su Yang managed to digest three-tenths of the Saint Emperors’ power. Naturally, most was absorbed by the Illusion; Su Yang only absorbed a small portion.
