Supreme Warrior in the City

Su Yang had no idea what was happening inside the palace. After he climbed out of the valley of the Demon Abyss, he immediately began absorbing Spiritual Energy, restoring his own power.

After that, Su Yang didn’t have time to think too much, and rushed straight to Qinghe Academy.

The World Melting Furnace had always been kept inside Qinghe Academy. Right now there were still several Saint Emperors stationed there, and Ye Wantong was among them.

The other Saint Emperors had all entered the World Melting Furnace according to Su Yang’s instructions.

These few Saint Emperors were stationed outside mainly because they were worried about Su Yang’s situation; all of them were waiting here for him.

Seeing Su Yang return, Ye Wantong and the others hurriedly came up to greet him, nervously asking what had happened.

Su Yang didn’t have time to explain too much to them; he only told them to quickly enter the World Melting Furnace. Then he put the World Melting Furnace away, preparing to enter Storm Valley to hide.

He didn’t know whether Dao Ji had managed to obtain the Heaven Slayer’s inheritance, but whether Dao Ji obtained it or not, as long as he walked out of the Demon Abyss, the Nine Realms would inevitably be plunged into a bloodbath. So Su Yang had to first preserve the hope of the Nine Realms inside the World Melting Furnace.

As for those people still remaining in the Nine Realms now, Su Yang truly couldn’t care about them anymore. Dao Ji was in the Earth-level Realm; in front of him, Su Yang simply couldn’t fight for that much time.

When Su Yang had finished putting everything in order, he sensed a powerful aura erupting from the direction of the Demon Abyss.

Su Yang’s expression changed. He knew Dao Ji had come out of the Demon Abyss.

He didn’t know whether this man had gained the Heaven Slayer’s inheritance, but since this man had appeared, it definitely wasn’t a good thing.

Su Yang didn’t dare think further and immediately rushed toward Storm Valley with the World Melting Furnace.

”Su, prepare to die!” Dao Ji roared in fury, and in the blink of an eye, he had rushed over from the Demon Abyss to Su Yang’s side.

Su Yang himself was a Great Saint Emperor; his speed was already extremely fast. But Dao Ji’s speed was a hundred times faster than his.

Seeing that he couldn’t reach Storm Valley, Su Yang immediately turned around and ran in another direction.

”You think you can run?” Dao Ji sneered. With a casual step, he once again blocked Su Yang’s path.

Su Yang changed directions several times, but was stopped by Dao Ji every time.

On the surface, it looked as if Su Yang was uselessly running around in a panic. But in reality, his position was constantly drawing closer to Storm Valley. He was using this erratic running to confuse Dao Ji, to make Dao Ji think he had no way out. In fact, Su Yang had been moving toward Storm Valley the whole time.

In terms of strength, Su Yang definitely was no match for Dao Ji. So for Su Yang, the only method now was to lure Dao Ji into Storm Valley and use Storm Valley to deal with him.

Dao Ji naturally had no idea what Su Yang’s true goal was. He didn’t understand the situation of the Nine Realms at all. So in his eyes, Su Yang was like a headless chicken, running around blindly, completely frightened senseless by him.

A cold smile hung on Dao Ji’s face. The more panicked Su Yang was, the happier he became. Because in his view, Su Yang was the one chosen by the Holy Daughter, yet now he was being chased around in circles by him, which was enough to prove that the Holy Daughter’s choice back then had been wrong.

”Run! Keep running!” Dao Ji sneered. ”I want to see how capable you are, where you think you can run! You dared to play tricks on me? Hmph, you’ll pay the price for that. This is your world, isn’t it? Don’t worry, before I kill you, I’ll make you watch how the people of this world die one by one because of you!”

Dao Ji’s voice was somewhat weak. Half his body had been crippled by the stone stele. And it wasn’t just half his body; the stele had also absorbed his True Yuan.

For a cultivator, True Yuan was the most important thing. As long as True Yuan remained intact, then with Spiritual Energy one could quickly recover. But once True Yuan was damaged, it would take many years of bitter cultivation to restore it.

Now that half his True Yuan had been lost, it would take at least a thousand years for him to recover. Adding to that the shattering of the Heaven Measuring Ruler, this trip had indeed cost Dao Ji dearly.

And this was the main reason why Dao Ji was furious to the extreme!

”Dao Ji, looking like this, you still dare talk about fighting for the Human Clan!” Su Yang said angrily. ”Those are just ordinary lives. They haven’t done anything to you. Why do you have to kill them?”

”Hmph, since those people live in the same world as you, they deserve to die!” Dao Ji said coldly. ”Of course I will protect the Human Clan, but the ones I protect are humans worth protecting, not these despicable races that live in the same world as you!”

”No wonder the Holy Daughter didn’t trust you!” Su Yang grit his teeth. ”You’re nothing but a madman!”

”Hahaha…” Dao Ji threw his head back and laughed. ”A madman? Have you ever seen such a successful madman? Once I obtain the Heaven Slayer inheritance, I’ll be the sole master of the Three Thousand Great Worlds. Could a madman become the master of the Three Thousand Great Worlds?”

”Someone like you, even if you really got the Heaven Slayer’s inheritance, would never become master of the Three Thousand Great Worlds!” Su Yang said coldly. ”Because no one would submit to you!”

”Not submit to me?” Dao Ji sneered. ”You have no idea what true power is. In the face of true power, any defiance will turn into submission. When I possess that kind of power, you’ll understand!”

While Dao Ji traded insults with Su Yang, he failed to notice that the two of them had already arrived outside a valley. This valley was precisely Storm Valley.

When they dropped down at the valley, Dao Ji finally realized something was wrong.

”What is this place?” Dao Ji asked in surprise.

Su Yang had no mind to waste words with him and rushed straight into Storm Valley.

”You think you can still run?” Dao Ji gave a cold laugh and chased after him directly. However, he didn’t rush to stop Su Yang, because he felt this Storm Valley was very strange and wanted to see what exactly it was.

After chasing for a while, Dao Ji began to sense that something was off. The Storm Power inside Storm Valley was constantly increasing; even Su Yang’s physical body could no longer withstand it, and his flesh was being torn apart by the Storm Power.

Dao Ji himself didn’t feel much, since he was in the Earth-level Realm. But the farther they went, the stronger this Storm Power became, which made Dao Ji somewhat uneasy. Who knew how strong this power could become?

”Stop!” Dao Ji barked coldly, quickly rushing to Su Yang’s front and grabbing Su Yang’s shoulder, trying to stop him.

Now that they had reached this place, how could Su Yang possibly stop? Gritting his teeth, he continued to charge forward, completely ignoring Dao Ji.

The more Su Yang acted like this, the more Dao Ji felt there was something wrong here. He immediately struck out, slamming a palm at Su Yang.
