Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 1542: Chapter 1541: Win Over

The great battle on the Qinghe Academy’s side had also ended, or rather, the headmaster felt that such a battle was meaningless and stopped it prematurely.

Both sides suffered injuries, but no one was killed. However, both sides remained in a standoff.

The people at Qinghe Academy were anxious, not knowing how to go out to rescue Su Yang and the others.

The Law Enforcers, on the other hand, were unfazed. Their task was to block the people of Qinghe Academy, preventing them from rescuing Su Yang. As long as the people of Qinghe Academy remained inside, their mission was accomplished.

As a result, in this situation, Su Yang and the others returned to Qinghe Academy, which left both sides astonished.

Qinghe Academy was overjoyed, while the Law Enforcers, though expressionless, were visibly shocked and frustrated.

The Four Great Sects, along with the people from Jade-Faced Judge’s side, had teamed up to kill Su Yang and Black Widow, yet they failed? What kind of situation is this?

The people of Qinghe Academy immediately rushed forward to protect Su Yang and the other two.

The headmaster stood in front and laughed loudly, ”Everyone, we won’t be going out. Please continue guarding here!”

The Law Enforcers looked displeased, all frowning and standing there without speaking.

The people of Qinghe Academy ignored them and went back inside. The Law Enforcers, after looking at each other for a while, turned around and left. Continuing to guard here was meaningless.

After bringing Su Yang and the other two back to Qinghe Academy, the headmaster immediately inquired about what happened on the other side.

Su Yang did not conceal anything and recounted everything that had occurred.

Upon hearing the assassin’s analysis, the headmaster frowned and said solemnly, ”Could it be that the Four Great Sects have really colluded with the Heavenly Court? If so, then this matter could be troublesome!”

”Making a deal with the devil, are these four sects out of their minds?” the Academic Dean said gravely.

”Who knows what kind of promises the Heavenly Court made to them, but we must be wary of these four sects in the future!” the headmaster said sternly.

Everyone nodded in agreement. After this incident, they not only had to be cautious of these four sects but also of the Heavenly Court’s people. Since the Law Enforcers were already involved in this, who knows what tactics the Heavenly Court might use next?

That night, the people of Qinghe Academy set out to bring Su Yang and Lü Donglin’s people to the academy, allowing them to stay temporarily.

Until the negotiations between the Ten Great Sects and the Heavenly Court concluded, these people would temporarily reside at Qinghe Academy. Since the Heavenly Court had begun to intervene, no one knew if they’d commit more heinous acts. Arranging for these people to stay here was the safest approach.

Of course, meanwhile, the headmaster also informed the other six sects of the night’s events. He did not mention the assassin’s analysis because without confirmation, such remarks couldn’t be spoken lightly. If these four sects hadn’t allied with the Heavenly Court, jumping to conclusions could easily push them into an alliance with the Heavenly Court.

He merely laid out the situation, leaving it to everyone to analyze. As for their conclusions, those would be their own opinions, at least not tearing the face, driving these four sects to complete despair.

At the same time, informing these six sects of the evening’s events could also alert them.

The Heavenly Court was already intervening in this matter, so these people couldn’t continue treating it lightly!

While Qinghe Academy spread the word, those four sects were also disseminating information. Their target was directly aimed at Beigong War God.

During the night, among these four sects, two Terrestrial Immortals were completely slain by Beigong War God, and three more had their bodies shattered, with only their Primordial Spirits remaining, which was akin to losing half their lives.

At this time, these four sects disregarded their reputation, detailing everything that happened just to emphasize how formidable Beigong War God’s power was.

Moreover, when speaking of Beigong War God’s attitude, they exaggeratedly portrayed him as capricious, unreasonable, and extremely vicious. They also depicted Beigong War God as someone harboring great hostility towards Terrestrial Immortals, trying to make other sects’ Terrestrial Immortals feel threatened.

In fact, all of this was orchestrated by the Heavenly Court from behind the scenes.

The objective of the Heavenly Court that night was to kill Su Yang and Su Xue, cutting off Su Zhan’s lineage completely. Simultaneously, by provoking Beigong War God into action to strike down Terrestrial Immortals, it aimed to shock other sects and revise the rules of heaven and earth.

Although Su Yang and Su Xue had not been killed, Beigong War God indeed acted. At this point, spreading this rumor was intended to instill a sense of crisis among other sects’ Terrestrial Immortals.

For a time, both Qinghe Academy and the Four Great Sects were putting their minds to work over this incident to gain the support of the six other sects.

The current situation was clear. The Soaring Cloud Hall, Heavenly Blade Peak, Horizon’s End, and Medicine Sect are undoubtedly determined to insist on modifying the rules of heaven and earth.

The remaining six sects, Martial God Altar and Thousand Snow Palace, would undoubtedly support Su Yang.

What surprised Su Yang was that Jade Maiden Peak also decisively sided with him this time. However, Su Xue later explained to Su Yang that Jade Maiden Peak had previously allied with Thousand Snow Palace, and Su Yang’s mother, Shen Xuewei, had trained at Jade Maiden Peak for a period, forming strong ties.

Later, as Su Zhan rose to prominence, he also retrieved three long-lost secret arts for Jade Maiden Peak, significantly elevating its status among the Ten Great Sects. So, although Jade Maiden Peak usually maintained neutrality, this time, they stood unwaveringly with Su Yang.

What remained were Hidden Sword Pavilion, Innate Sect, and Great Might Dragon Gate.

Among these three sects, Hidden Sword Pavilion had good relations with Martial God Altar, which had already sent people to persuade them.

As for Innate Sect and Great Might Dragon Gate, these two sects truly troubled Su Yang.

He had previously reached out to the people of these two sects, finding them to be slippery, fence-sitters.

The people of Innate Sect were slightly better. According to the headmaster, Qinghe Academy could try to reach out to them.

If the headmaster could successfully bring Innate Sect over, Su Yang would have the support of five sects.

But the problem lies with Great Might Dragon Gate. If Great Might Dragon Gate sided with the Heavenly Court, then the Heavenly Court would also have the support of five sects, causing the negotiations to reach a stalemate.
