Supreme Warrior in the City

Walking through this passage once, Su Yang and the others didn’t find anything, so they turned back and chose another passage to continue the investigation.

After switching to sixteen passages in this manner, an unexpected incident suddenly occurred when they entered the seventeenth passage.

As Su Yang and his companions just entered this passage, they felt a powerful aura surrounding them.

This situation left Su Yang and the others bewildered. Could there really be powerhouses guarding within this passage?

”Who goes there?!” An angry shout echoed from within the passage, followed closely by a rapid approach of more than a dozen people.

Su Yang’s trio didn’t have time to retreat as these dozen individuals had already surrounded them.

These dozen people were Guardians, and their strength was formidable, each eyeing Su Yang and his group fiercely.

Su Yang and his companions wore expressions of confusion. They could never have imagined that Guardians would be guarding inside this passage. What on earth is going on here? There were no Guardians defending other passages; their main forces were dispatched to Su Yang’s Great World. Why are there so many Guardians in this passage?

Su Yang suddenly recalled something. Could this be related to the Great City Lord? Was the Great City Lord the one who entered this passage initially?

”Boss, let’s retreat!” The Second City Lord transmitted telepathically.

”Retreat, my ass!” Su Yang transmitted, ”There’s something off about this passage; maybe the Great City Lord is in here!”

The Second City Lord’s eyes also lit up, ”Right, with so many people stationed here, it’s possible it really involves our big bro!”

”Capture them and find out our big bro’s whereabouts!” The Third City Lord said, cracking his knuckles.

”You think you can beat them?” The Second City Lord glared, ”There’s an Earth Level Powerhouse in there too!”

Su Yang also frowned tightly, for indeed, there was an Earth Level Powerhouse among them, which makes it troublesome. Moreover, those surrounding the Earth Level Powerhouse were no slouches either.

At this time, those Guardians also fixed their gaze squarely on Su Yang’s group. One of them said in a deep voice, ”Main God, the situation is somewhat similar to that fellow who came in before. Could they be his allies?”

With these words, Su Yang’s group could confirm that the Great City Lord indeed entered this passage earlier.

The leading Earth Level Powerhouse eyed Su Yang’s group coldly and suddenly waved a hand, ”Capture them all first!”

A dozen Guardians immediately rushed forward, and witnessing such a situation, Su Yang didn’t waste words and hastily grabbed the Second and Third City Lords as they quickly retreated, darting into the vortex.

”Boss, what are you doing?” The Second City Lord asked in surprise, ”Our big bro is definitely in that passage; aren’t we rescuing him?”

”Hogwash, of course, we’re rescuing him, but we need to assess the situation too!” Su Yang glared, ”There are so many powerhouses inside; are we going to fight them head-on?”

”Uh...” The Second City Lord was at a loss for words momentarily, knowing they couldn’t possibly win, so a direct clash would certainly put them at a disadvantage.

”So what’s the plan now?” The Third City Lord asked urgently.

Su Yang didn’t say a word, just dragged these two companions and darted toward the vortex.

”Boss, the vortex isn’t stable yet!” The Second City Lord exclaimed, but it was too late as Su Yang dragged them both straight through the vortex.

This time, with Su Yang dragging them through the vortex, even though it was still spinning, they ended up at the same location.

”Boss, what are we doing now?” The Third City Lord asked in astonishment.

”Switch through several passages; let’s confuse them first!”

Su Yang quickly took these two companions and retreated to the vortex again, then dashed through the vortex repeatedly. Honestly, by now, Su Yang’s group had no idea exactly where they were.

At first, the pursuers behind occasionally managed to catch up, but as Su Yang and his group passed through the vortex more frequently, the pursuers were generally unable to keep up.

Finally, Su Yang stopped. After waiting for a while and confirming that the pursuers wouldn’t be able to catch up anytime soon, Su Yang summoned the Chaos Sparrow to reset the location to the passage where the Great City Lord had been.

”Let’s go; we can proceed now!” Su Yang stated.

The two Crystal Skulls looked at Su Yang’s maneuvers, and the Third City Lord said admiringly, ”Boss, is this move called ’luring the tiger away from the mountain’?”

”More or less!” Su Yang responded, ”We don’t know how many people are guarding that passage; it’s unlikely we can lure them all away. But drawing some away means less pressure for us. By the way, you two get into my Personal Space; this time, I’ll go alone, which is more convenient for stealth!”

The two Crystal Skulls didn’t hesitate and immediately entered Su Yang’s Personal Space. Their strength was inferior to Su Yang’s, and their stealth skills weren’t as proficient either. Following Su Yang would be more likely to be discovered, so it was better to hide first.

Su Yang circled back to that passage, where there’s still a group of people guarding the entrance. However, this group was significantly weaker, led only by two Saint Emperors, without any formidable Earth Level Powerhouses.

Facing such a group, with Su Yang’s current strength, there was no issue at all. But he didn’t waste time, directly pulling out a gourd and swiftly charging into the crowd.

”It’s him!” One Saint Emperor exclaimed in shock, quickly attacking Su Yang.

Su Yang had already reached his side, and facing the Saint Emperor’s counterattack, Su Yang had no intention of dodging but charged straight in.

The Saint Emperor’s eyes gleamed with a sharp light, elevating his power to the utmost level. Although he could sense that Su Yang’s strength was slightly superior, they had numbers on their side, with nearby allies ready to cover him. If this strike landed on Su Yang, it would surely inflict serious injuries!

However, what happened next was entirely beyond his expectations. Su Yang made no attempt to dodge nor intended to counter, meeting the attack head-on. As the attack was about to land on Su Yang, Su Yang suddenly pushed the gourd forward.

Before the Saint Emperor could react, the mouth of the gourd suddenly widened. With his forceful strike, he had no chance to pull back, getting sucked straight into the gourd.

The gourd is a Space Artifact, a highly powerful one. Su Yang never intended to fight these Guardians directly; he planned to trap them in the gourd, quickly resolving the issue.

The Saint Emperor never anticipated Su Yang would do such a thing, so there wasn’t even time to ponder before he was absorbed by the gourd.

All around, the Guardians had encircled Su Yang, stunned by this situation. Su Yang’s combat method was entirely unexpected. Who fights like this, just putting people into a Space Artifact right off the bat?
