Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 926: Chapter 925 Xuan Wu

”What?” Su Yang almost spat blood.

”Hehe...” Lian Wanxiong smiled lightly, ”Anyway, it considers you as its closest person, which is a good thing for you. This little one is still young and unable to utilize its vast magical powers. Once it grows up, it will be truly terrifying.”

Su Yang glanced at the little creature on his shoulder, feeling his heart beat faster. Being half a level or even a level higher than ordinary people was naturally no simple matter.

”Where did Xuan Wu go?” Su Yang suddenly asked, ”You said, I took its child away, would it get angry, would it chase me around the world to kill me?”

”No.” Lian Wanxiong shook his head, ”I think Xuan Wu might already be dead in battle!”

”Ah?” Su Yang’s eyes widened. Such a powerful Divine Beast could die in battle? How powerful must the person who killed it be?

”Inside the Celestial War Armor you’re wearing, there is a piece of Xuan Wu’s shell,” Lian Wanxiong said, ”The shell of Xuan Wu is the hardest part of its body, and also where its defenses are strongest. With Xuan Wu’s shell shattered, do you think Xuan Wu could still be alive?”

Su Yang was dumbfounded, ”Then... who could have killed it?”

”I don’t know about that,” Lian Wanxiong shook his head, ”However, I think when Xuan Wu was searching for the Divine Farmer Sect’s Old Site and hid this egg, it was preparing for the future. It probably knew it was facing danger, so it prepared such a place in advance for its child to naturally hatch, and it could go to its appointment with peace of mind.”

Su Yang looked at the little turtle on his shoulder and couldn’t help but sigh. This little one’s fate was truly tragic, becoming an orphan before even emerging from the egg.

”You’re really lucky too,” Lian Wanxiong said. ”The true power of the Celestial War Armor lies in that piece of Xuan Wu’s Tortoise Shell. However, to activate the power of the Tortoise Shell, a powerful force must be infused into it. Thus, even the Terrestrial Immortals of the Wu Family, when using this Celestial War Armor, needed to exert an incredibly strong force, and they couldn’t sustain it for long.”

”With this little one on your body, it can help you activate the power of the Tortoise Shell and support the Celestial War Armor, so that you hardly need to expend much of your own strength to use the Celestial War Armor.”

Su Yang had always been curious about this matter, but now hearing Lian Wanxiong explain it, he finally understood the situation. He couldn’t help but stroke the little one’s shell again; this little fellow, at least it hadn’t consumed all that Spiritual Medicine in vain.

”Just wondering when this little one will grow up!” Su Yang lamented, ”You wouldn’t believe how much it eats.”

”During its growth period, it’s normal for it to eat a lot. Don’t be stingy with that Spiritual Medicine; once it grows up, it will be incredible,” Lian Wanxiong said.

Su Yang nodded, taking a closer look, indeed that was the case. If the little one could grow to the Earthly Immortal Realm, it would truly be a defiance of the natural order.

”By the way, how did you come to know the Art of Thousand Swords of the Wu Family?” Lian Wanxiong suddenly asked.

”I learned it from the Wu Family,” Su Yang said.

”Learned from the Wu Family?” Lian Wanxiong was astonished, ”How is that possible? That move, the Art of Thousand Swords, has been lost for over three hundred years. It’s said that the Art of Thousand Swords disappeared along with the Ancestor of the Wu Family who first created it, and since then no one in the Wu Family has ever mastered it!”

Su Yang’s mind stirred, recalling the matters concerning Wu Jianqiu and others, he quickly asked, ”Do you know someone called the Three-faced God Monarch?”

Lian Wanxiong shook his head, ”I’ve never heard of it.”

”What about Mr. Jin Ye? Wu Jianqiu?” Su Yang asked again.

”Mr. Jin Ye, I have heard some about him; he’s a master who suddenly rose in the north a few years ago. He’s not weak, but his background is mysterious, no one knows his identity,” Lian Wanxiong paused, then added, ”But according to his methods, he does resemble a Terrestrial Immortal who suddenly disappeared several hundred years ago, the Sovereign of Seven Hands.”

Su Yang felt a sudden shock in his heart. This Mr. Jin Ye also seemed to be a Terrestrial Immortal, so similar to the situations of Liao Yuxuan, Gongye Liang, Wu Jianqiu. What exactly was going on here?

”Why are you suddenly asking about this?” Lian Wanxiong asked curiously.

Su Yang didn’t hide anything, explaining the recent events he encountered to Lian Wanxiong. Finally, he shared his and Qi Zhishan’s analysis with Lian Wanxiong again.

After listening to Su Yang, Lian Wanxiong’s brow furrowed deeply, seemingly shocked by the matter as well.

”There really is such a thing, it seems I need to investigate this matter next,” Lian Wanxiong said.

”You said that Wu Jianqiu could use the Wu Family’s Art of Thousand Swords, it couldn’t be that he mastered it on his own. Thus, his situation must be similar to those of Liao Yuxuan and Gongye Liang,” Lian Wanxiong said seriously, ”Could it be that these missing Terrestrial Immortals have come back, playing some trick behind the scenes?”

Su Yang was astonished, ”These Terrestrial Immortals have been missing for hundreds of years, they just come back like that?”

”Who knows!” Lian Wanxiong shrugged, ”Honestly, their disappearances were very mysterious. They vanished suddenly without a trace, a single person is an exception, but so many people, that’s strange.”

”Wasn’t it said that these people went overseas to meet Immortals and then disappeared?” Su Yang wondered.

”That’s exactly why it’s so strange, why specifically those who went overseas to meet Immortals disappeared?” Lian Wanxiong said.

Su Yang scratched his head, suddenly recalling the incident he encountered in Hanxi Province, ”Right, when I was in Hanxi Province before, that Terrestrial Immortal from the Chen Family wanted to severely injure me. He said that after injuring me, he would immediately go overseas and not come back again, beyond the reach of the Law Enforcers, what’s going on with that?”

”The jurisdiction of the Heavenly Court is only within Huaxia,” Lian Wanxiong said.

”Ah?” Su Yang was astonished, it was the first time he had heard of such a thing.

”Why though?” Su Yang asked in surprise.

”You asked me, whom should I ask?” Lian Wanxiong shrugged, ”Anyway, the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Court is that large, so often, Terrestrial Immortals who violate the rules of the Heavenly Court flee overseas, never to return again. Actually, most of those Terrestrial Immortals who went overseas did so for this reason. All this talk of visiting Immortals is just an excuse, just baloney, many are trying to evade capture by the Law Enforcers.”
