Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 122: Chapter 122: The Power of Nine Cold Jade

From afar, Hao Tiangong felt his face turn pale with anger; he knew that Duan Chengjiu’s words were directed at him.

However, considering the arrogant remarks he had made before, his face now flushed red. In front of Su Yang, what significance did he, the fourth-ranking expert in Nanluo City, hold?

Standing with his hands behind his back, Su Yang spoke softly, ”The matters of today shall remain within this pavilion. I hope they do not spread elsewhere. Everyone understands what I mean, right?”

The crowd nodded in agreement; who would dare to ignore Su Yang’s words?

”Master Su...” Wang Jing Lei cautiously said, ”That Ren Beishan is the fifth-ranked expert in Pingnan Province. Moreover, the Ren Family is one of the more influential families among the Five Great Martial Arts Families. You must not underestimate this Ren Beishan!”

With a snort, Su Yang retorted, ”If he dares to come for me, then I will ensure that the Ren Family is thoroughly eradicated!”

Everyone was shocked; to everyone’s eyes, the Ren Family, a great clan that had existed for hundreds of years, was a colossal entity. Even the number one family in Pingnan Province wouldn’t dare to utter such words. Wasn’t Su Yang being too arrogant?

However, recalling the scene of Su Yang wielding his sword in a flying slash just now, no one dared to doubt his words!

...

Upon returning home, Su Yang went straight up to the third floor.

After closing the door, Su Yang finally let out a long breath.

The sword strike that had stunned everyone had also exceeded his expectations.

He had originally thought that the Nine Cold Jade Sword could only be wielded by him to harm others like an ordinary flying sword. But to his surprise, the power of the Nine Cold Jade had manifested, instantly freezing Ren Yuanfeng, an opponent with quite formidable strength.

One should note that to wield the power of the Nine Cold Jade, at least the Spirit Tranquility Realm would be required. And yet, Su Yang had not even reached the Integration Realm; how, then, did he manage to unleash the power of the Nine Cold Jade just now?

Although the power of the Nine Cold Jade was very strong, that one strike had also drained nearly a third of Su Yang’s energy. This meant that he could only execute that strike a maximum of three times. Such a powerful secret technique was better used sparingly!

Taking out the Nine Cold Jade Sword to examine it carefully, Su Yang concentrated on feeling the condition within the Jade Sword. After a long while, he slowly opened his eyes; he had pretty much figured out what had happened.

With his current strength, indeed, he could not wield the power of the Nine Cold Jade. However, ”Devouring the Heavens” was capable of drawing out the strength of the Nine Cold Jade.

Su Yang had previously used ”Devouring the Heavens” to absorb the power of the Nine Cold Jade; some of it was used for refining medicine, but a part still remained on the surface of the Nine Cold Jade Sword. Therefore, when Su Yang wielded the sword for that slash, the power of the Nine Cold Jade exploded forth, instantly freezing Ren Yuanfeng.

Having understood the situation, Su Yang breathed a sigh of relief; he had been worried that the Nine Cold Jade Sword was uncontrollable. But now, it seemed like a trump card he could use in battle—conjuring the power of the Nine Cold Jade could effortlessly defeat even experts of the Fusion Realm!

Afterward, Su Yang practiced his cultivation for a while. He had absorbed all of Ren Yuanfeng’s power, and now it was time to convert it for his own use.

Since Su Yang’s realm was above Ren Yuanfeng’s, converting this power was not difficult. Two hours later, he had fully assimilated Ren Yuanfeng’s power into his own.

The power of Ren Yuanfeng turned out to be incredibly strong, propelling Su Yang straight to the peak of Qi Refinement; he was just one step away from entering the Integration Realm. However, Su Yang was very clear about his current situation—his foundation was not yet firm enough for the Integration Realm, and using ”Devouring the Heavens” to forcefully advance would lead to endless troubles!

After practicing his cultivation, Su Yang lay down to rest.

The next day, bright and early, Su Yang was awakened by Hu Xiexie’s phone call.

”Big sister, what’s the matter now...” Su Yang said helplessly. This is the second morning in a row, can’t people sleep?

”Hey, you said yesterday that you’d teach me those moves of yours!” Hu Xiexie’s voice was filled with excitement: ”Hurry up, the usual place, I’m waiting for you!”

”Can’t I teach you later in the morning...” Su Yang said: ”I’m still not fully awake.”

”The planning of a day starts in the morning, don’t you understand this principle? Morning practice is twice as effective!” Hu Xiexie said: ”Stop talking nonsense, you must be there in half an hour, otherwise your teacher is going to enforce family discipline on you!”

Su Yang’s face was full of speechlessness, but he had to get out of bed dutifully and rush to Wanshan Lake.

Hu Xiexie had been waiting there for a while, and Li Wanxiong was in the distant woods, seemingly protecting Hu Xiexie.

This time, when Su Yang arrived, Li Wanxiong didn’t come over to stop him. After the incident at Deyue Tower, he knew that Su Yang was indeed a figure high beyond reach!

Hu Xiexie was warming up by the lakeside. Seeing Su Yang approaching, she immediately said excitedly: ”Disciple, come here quick, come on, first tell me, how do you walk on air like you do?”

”Big sister, that’s called Emperor’s Skywalk...” Su Yang said, a wave of speechlessness washing over him.

”It’s all the same!” Hu Xiexie waved her little fist at Su Yang: ”I’m warning you, don’t call me big sister, it makes me seem so old. You should call me master, got it?”

”Does calling you master not make you seem old?” Su Yang was even more speechless.

Hu Xiexie: ”That’s different, master reflects seniority, and big sister suggests actual age!”

Su Yang: ”Oh my, I can’t argue against your twisted logic!”

”That’s right, you shouldn’t argue with a girl, aren’t you ashamed!” Hu Xiexie said proudly with a smile: ”Enough talk, hurry up and teach me!”

”This...” Su Yang scratched his head and said: ”This move isn’t easy for me to teach you. Actually, Emperor’s Skywalk isn’t difficult at all.”

”How can I do it then?” Hu Xiexie asked urgently.

”You just need to reach the Fusion Realm.” Su Yang said.

”What?” Hu Xiexie was dumbfounded: ”Isn’t that nonsense? If I reach the Fusion Realm, why would I need you to teach me? I would already be one of the top ten figures in the entire province. In Pingnan Province, there aren’t even ten people in the Fusion Realm. At the Fusion Realm, one can be called a Grandmaster, and at Fusion Peak, one is known as The Sovereign, and you say just get there as if it’s that easy?”

”But truly, to Emperor’s Skywalk, you indeed must reach the Fusion Realm!” Su Yang said helplessly.

Hu Xiexie’s eyes whirled as she stared at Su Yang: ”So you mean to say that you’ve reached the Fusion Realm?”

”I...” Su Yang said guiltily: ”Kind of...”

”Either you have or you haven’t, what do you mean by ’kind of’!” Hu Xiexie glared.

”Xiexie, you must not be disrespectful!” Li Wanxiong, who had been listening, couldn’t stand it anymore and scolded: ”For Master Su to be able to Emperor’s Skywalk and wield the Jade Sword, these are things that only someone in the Fusion Realm could possibly do!”

”Really?” Hu Xiexie’s face lit up with excitement instantly: ”Then you must teach me quickly, I also want to enter the Fusion Realm like you!”
