Supreme Warrior in the City

As the Saint Emperors from the Demon Beast side moved out together, the Saint Emperors on Su Yang’s side also charged forward, engaging in battle with these Saint Emperors of the Demon Beast Clan.

The Saint Kings and Saint Venerables, among others, had long since retreated ten thousand miles away.

The battle of the Saint Emperors was earth-shattering and terrifying in power. Even the slightest aftermath could instantly kill a Saint King, so how could these Saint Kings and Saint Venerables dare to approach?

The Demon Beast Clan had half as many more Saint Emperors than Su Yang’s side. However, once the battle commenced, the Golden Dragon Saint Emperor realized that they didn’t have the slightest advantage at all.

The Saint Emperors brought by Su Yang, even the weakest of them, could handle two opponents at once. The stronger ones could take on three, and possibly even four or five.

Therefore, the Saint Emperors from the True Martial Realm originally charged in with trepidation, fearing they’d be besieged by the Demon Beast Saint Emperors. After the battle began, they realized there was no chance of being surrounded by them; instead, the Demon Beast Saint Emperors were not enough to contend with.

The people Su Yang brought had already intercepted all the Demon Beast Saint Emperors. Meanwhile, the Saint Emperors from the True Martial Realm barely had the chance to strike.

Su Yang personally faced the Golden Dragon Saint Emperor, and this time, the Golden Dragon Saint Emperor finally realized the true extent of Su Yang’s strength.

It completely confirmed his previous suspicion; Lin Ye wasn’t the strongest in the Heavenly War Alliance. Just a glance showed him a dozen or so people whose combat power rivaled Lin Ye’s.

But facing Su Yang, he felt a fear of power that made him tremble.

Though the Golden Dragon Saint Emperor claimed he might become a Great Saint Emperor, when he fought Su Yang, he truly understood what it meant to have the potential to become a Great Saint Emperor.

Su Yang seemed as if he had already stepped one foot into the realm of a Great Saint Emperor.

While facing Su Yang, the Golden Dragon Saint Emperor vaguely felt as if he were battling a Great Saint Emperor. Su Yang’s immense power sent his heart pounding wildly. Every time he blocked Su Yang’s attack, he wondered if Su Yang would cut him down on the spot.

In fact, Su Yang held back every time he struck. Otherwise, the Golden Dragon Saint Emperor would have long been slain by Su Yang and wouldn’t have lasted this long at all!

While battling the Golden Dragon Saint Emperor, Su Yang’s attention was also scattered elsewhere. He had to keep an eye on the other Saint Emperors to prevent them from getting carried away and killing the Demon Beast Saint Emperors, which would have been a serious problem.

Fortunately, these Saint Emperors were still quite obedient to Su Yang’s orders. Though they struck forcefully, they withheld their strength, only defeating the Demon Beast Saint Emperors without killing them.

This grand battle lasted three days, and in the end, all the Demon Beast Saint Emperors were thoroughly disheartened and retreated spontaneously.

These Demon Beast Saint Emperors realized they were simply no match for Su Yang’s side. Lasting for three days was only because Su Yang’s side allowed them to. Otherwise, they suspected they would have perished long ago.

Under such circumstances, the Demon Beast Saint Emperors were not ungrateful, realizing that continuing to fight would mean courting death if they pushed Su Yang’s side too hard.

The Golden Dragon Saint Emperor also withdrew, his face immensely gloomy. Personally leading the expedition only to meet such defeat left him feeling utterly disgraced.

However, in the face of absolute power, he was powerless.

”Thank you for letting us!” Su Yang cupped his hands from a distance.

The Golden Dragon Saint Emperor ground his teeth and sourly declared, ”Su Mo, this isn’t over! I’ll report to the Great Saint Emperor immediately, and when the Great Saint Emperor comes in person, we’ll see how you handle it!”

”For an Intermediate World, you would alarm the Great Saint Emperor?” Su Yang chuckled coldly. ”Golden Dragon Saint Emperor, no wonder it’s said that you don’t have the destiny to become a Great Saint Emperor in your lifetime. You’re simply not qualified.”

”What did you say!” The Golden Dragon Saint Emperor flared up in anger.

”You know what I said!” Su Yang retorted coldly. ”I advise you not to seek out the Great Saint Emperor. Otherwise, if he doesn’t step in, you’ll only disgrace yourself further!”

”What do you mean?” The Golden Dragon Saint Emperor angrily questioned.

”The Great Saint Emperor is recovering from severe injuries after battling the Guardian God, hidden away to heal. Do you think he will venture out for such a trifling matter?” Su Yang coldly replied. ”Besides, after the battle with the Guardian God, the Great Saint Emperor has already said to act low-key and avoid causing trouble for the Demon Beast Clan. Given the circumstances, how many Saint Emperors do you think he will send to assist you? How many do you think you need to deal with us? Moreover, do you think the Great Saint Emperor would sacrifice more Saint Emperors for this issue?”

After a series of questions, the Golden Dragon Saint Emperor was left stupefied. As much as he was unwilling to accept it, he had to admit that Su Yang’s words were indeed true.

To disturb the Great Saint Emperor over this issue would be a disgrace to him, and he would be at a disadvantage. Moreover, the Great Saint Emperor might not even send anyone to aid him, and he might face punishment for this matter, all to no benefit!

After pondering for a long time, the Golden Dragon Saint Emperor gritted his teeth and said, ”Su, don’t think you can scare me. We invaded the True Martial Realm under the command of the Great Saint Emperor. By stopping us, you’re opposing the Great Saint Emperor; he won’t let you off!”

”Heh...” Su Yang sneered. ”Let’s see if the Great Saint Emperor has time to deal with me now. Don’t forget, your Demon Beast Clan has already lost one Great Saint Emperor!”

The Golden Dragon Saint Emperor’s expression changed drastically. With a Great Saint Emperor already killed, the rest in the Demon Beast Clan were particularly cautious of their lives. It seemed likely their regional Great Saint Emperor might indeed not intervene.

”Moreover, your invasion of the True Martial Realm was only for Spiritual Sources.” Su Yang smiled mildly. ”How about this: give me a hundred years, and I will prepare these Spiritual Sources for you!”

”Hmm?” The Golden Dragon Saint Emperor widened his eyes, staring at Su Yang in amazement.

As Su Yang pointed out, the Demon Beast Clan’s devouring of worlds was all about acquiring Spiritual Sources. If Spiritual Sources were available without having to fight hard, they naturally wouldn’t want the hassle.

But the problem was, would Su Yang provide these Spiritual Sources for them? What a joke was this? The Heavenly War Alliance had always been about plundering others’ Spiritual Sources; when had they ever used them to save a world?

Furrowing his brows in thought for a while, the Golden Dragon Saint Emperor gravely asked, ”Do you know how many Spiritual Sources devouring the True Martial Realm would provide?”

”Of course, I know!” Su Yang calmly nodded. ”That’s why I need a hundred years to procure these Spiritual Sources!”

The Golden Dragon Saint Emperor gazed at Su Yang for a long while before saying in a deep voice, ”Do you think I would believe you?”

”I think you have no reason not to believe me!” Su Yang responded succinctly.
