Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 1440: Chapter 1439 Lü Donglin Is Deceived

”It’s not that I see clearly; it’s just the situation as it is!” Su Yang said softly. ”I don’t know what the Heavenly War is, but the appearance of the Law Enforcers tonight was too suspicious. They came too early, and too many of them, as if they were already prepared. Someone told me that the heavenly rules are about to change. Perhaps, even Qinghe Academy might no longer be a haven in the future!”

”Qinghe Academy has never been a haven. It’s just that the world in the future may not be a haven either; that’s hard to say!” The principal sighed and shook his head, then fell silent and spoke no more.

Su Yang didn’t linger at Qinghe Academy. After bidding farewell to the principal, he left directly.

The principal watched as Su Yang’s figure disappeared in the distance, sighed again, and muttered, ”Even if you win this battle, what does it mean? After the heavenly rules change, how long can you last? How many Terrestrial Immortals in this world want to kill you?”

Su Yang didn’t hear these words. However, he already imagined them in his heart.

Black Widow left to do something major she had prepared for many years at the Su Family of Yanbei.

This was Su Yang’s greatest ally, but this time around, he couldn’t rely on her.

However, when Su Yang returned to the Shen Family Courtyard, he happened to meet Lü Donglin and others rushing back, covered in dust.

Once Lü Donglin reached the door and saw Su Yang returning, he was delighted, hurried over, and said, ”Brother Su, are you alright?”

”I’m fine!” Su Yang looked at the few people behind Lü Donglin in surprise and asked, ”What’s going on with you guys?”

When the Su Family of Yanbei attacked the Shen Family Courtyard last time, Lü Donglin’s group disappeared. Now, after two days, they finally made it back, and it seemed like they encountered some trouble.

”Ah, don’t mention it!” Lü Donglin waved his hand. ”We got swindled!”

”What happened?” Su Yang asked curiously.

”We suddenly received news that my greatest enemy appeared near the Capital City, so I immediately took my men there.” Lü Donglin explained, ”I was thinking of checking the situation, and if I couldn’t find anyone, I would come back to help you immediately. But unexpectedly, when we got there, we were trapped in a formation that had been set up for a long time. We wandered inside for two days before finding our way out.”

Su Yang frowned. Lü Donglin was the nephew of the Beigong War God, so he should understand formations a bit, right? What kind of formation could trap them for so long?

”What kind of formation?” Su Yang asked. ”So powerful?”

”The formation itself is not powerful, but the person controlling it is!” Xue Nu, standing nearby, said in a deep voice, ”The person controlling the formation is an absolute master, with strength even above mine. If he had continued to control the formation, we might not have made it out yet. By the time we got out, that person had run away, and we had no idea who trapped us inside!”

”Could it be someone from the Martial Champion Zhang Family?” Su Yang whispered.

Xue Nu shook his head. ”It’s hard to say. We sensed the presence of the Judge Gate at the scene!”

The Judge Gate was a sect founded by the Jade-Faced Judge.

”Could it be that the Jade-Faced Judge came in person?” Su Yang was astonished.

”Definitely not!” Xue Nu said. ”That aura was too weak; it couldn’t possibly be the Jade-Faced Judge.”

”Then it must be someone under the Jade-Faced Judge?” Su Yang said.

Xue Nu nodded and continued, ”We just don’t know which person under the Jade-Faced Judge it was!”

”Are there many masters under the Jade-Faced Judge?” Su Yang asked in surprise.

”Not many, but there are two or three.” Xue Nu said seriously. ”It’s hard to tell who it was since I haven’t had much interaction with these people.”

Su Yang nodded slowly, pondered for a while, and frowned. ”But it’s strange. By logic, Ge Kaiyang’s group was defeated by the Martial Champion Zhang Family and those from the Su Family of Yanbei. Even if they wanted revenge, they should be targeting these two families. Why target you?”

”That’s exactly what I can’t figure out.” Lü Donglin shrugged. ”What kind of scheme are these people up to?”

”Forget it, let’s not think about it!” The Drunken Monk sticking his tongue out said nearby, ”Su Yang, got any wine?”

Su Yang was rendered speechless; this Drunken Monk really couldn’t have fun without wine, almost like an alcoholic.

After arranging a feast, the Drunken Monk drank three bottles in a row before wiping his face and exhaling deeply, ”Amitabha, I almost died of thirst!”

Su Yang really wanted to kick this damned monk’s face, but he was too lazy to waste words with him and briefly explained to Lü Donglin what had happened in the past two days.

Lü Donglin was surprised to learn that Su Yang defeated the Su Family of Yanbei and even insulted and seriously injured Su Ze.

This battle, in his eyes, had little chance of Su Yang winning. Who would have thought that Su Yang not only won but did so excessively?

Of course, this was Black Widow’s plan, and Su Yang wasn’t in a position to explain too much to Lü Donglin.

After hearing about the Medicine Sect, Lü Donglin was speechless. ”That Second Elder of the Medicine Sect is notoriously protective and extremely arrogant and self-righteous. I think tomorrow night they’re bound to strike with full force. By then, this battle will be very troublesome!”

Su Yang nodded slowly, aware of these circumstances.

”Forget it; we won’t leave tonight!” Lü Donglin slapped the table. ”Tomorrow night, let’s have a good fight with these bastards!”

”Huh?” Su Yang was taken aback and quickly waved his hands. ”No need, I can handle this myself!”

”Stop talking nonsense!” Lü Donglin said. ”I’ve hated those bastards from the Medicine Sect for not just a day or two. When my mother needed help, those bastards from the Medicine Sect extorted us in various ways and then went back on their word, refusing to provide the medicine to save my mother. Those bastards bear a lot of responsibility for my mother’s death. Just as this opportunity presents itself, let’s have a good fight and avenge my mother!”

Su Yang didn’t expect Lü Donglin to have such a grudge against the Medicine Sect.

”Even though that’s true, this issue is too big.” Su Yang said softly. ”Besides, Black Widow said the heavenly rules are about to change. Provoking these Great Sects at this time might not be appropriate, right?”

Lü Donglin obviously already knew about the changes in the heavenly rules and, hearing this, pursed his lips. ”Then when is it appropriate to provoke them? My uncle has held the position in the Northern Three Provinces for so many years; countless Terrestrial Immortals want to kill him. Do you think if we back down this time, they will spare us after the heavenly rules change? Don’t be naive; if you have the chance, take them out quickly. Otherwise, once the opportunity passes, they will definitely not spare you!”
