Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 1621: Chapter 1620: Qi Bachi Advances

The three Single-horned Wolf cubs, after consuming such Elixir Pills, naturally had their potential unleashed. Their growth speed and power activation were far stronger than those of ordinarily grown Single-horned Wolves.

Su Yang had no doubt that if these three Single-horned Wolf cubs grew under such conditions, their future prospects could truly be described as limitless.

As long as these three Single-horned Wolf cubs did not encounter any mishaps, their combat power upon growing could likely rival that of a dozen ordinary-grown Single-horned Wolves!

After the Black Widow came out, she immediately started contacting Shen Wanao to prepare matters regarding Su Yang’s arranged marriage.

Shen Wanao was naturally very attentive, and he had been stationed in the Capital City for a while now. Upon receiving Black Widow’s message, he rushed over to discuss this matter with her.

Subsequently, the two personally traveled to Pingnan Province to discuss this with Ye Sword Saint.

Throughout the entire process, Su Yang was not involved, giving him a real sense of what a true arranged marriage means.

Fortunately, there was already a mutual emotional foundation between Su Yang and Ye Wantong. Additionally, Ye Sword Saint was a former friend of Su Yang’s father, Su Zhan, and the marriage arrangement had been set for a long time, making the process very smooth.

In less than three days, news of Su Yang and Ye Wantong’s engagement spread throughout the land.

Of course, it was only an engagement, and the specifics of the marriage had not yet been determined. In reality, the current world situation was very chaotic, and with the next Law Enforcer selection imminent, Ye Sword Saint did not have the time to handle the marriage arrangements. Setting the engagement allowed him much peace of mind.

In the coming period, Su Yang remained in the Capital City, spending most of his time cultivating in the World Melting Furnace.

After arranging the marriage for Su Yang, Black Widow also returned to the Capital City, continuing her cultivation in the World Melting Furnace.

Just as Ye Sword Saint had said, the world was about to be thrown into chaos, and Su Yang needed to be fully prepared.

Ye Sword Saint was in such a hurry to arrange the engagement because he wanted Su Yang to protect Ye Wantong.

It seemed Ye Sword Saint was very worried about the upcoming Law Enforcer selection.

And Su Yang had learned through other channels that the current top three on the Heavenly Ranking were all friends of Ye Sword Saint and people from Qinghe Academy. Their position in the top three was actually to help Ye Sword Saint, so he wouldn’t have to enter the Law Enforcer selection.

Under such circumstances, how would Heavenly Court devise a method to have Ye Sword Saint enter the Law Enforcer selection?

However, just a day before the Law Enforcer selection was about to begin, a shocking message spread: Qi Bachi challenged the third-ranked Wang Pu on the Heavenly Ranking and defeated him!

This news shocked everyone in the world. The truly crucial part was not Qi Bachi defeating Wang Pu but that Qi Bachi’s victory meant the Heavenly Ranking positions would be rearranged.

Previously, Ye Sword Saint had defeated Qi Bachi to become fourth on the Heavenly Ranking, and Qi Bachi, having been defeated, moved back to fifth.

Now, Qi Bachi defeating Wang Pu did not mean he could take Wang Pu’s place. Instead, Wang Pu vacated the third spot, allowing those behind him to move up by one rank.

Simply put, with Qi Bachi defeating Wang Pu, Ye Sword Saint became third on the Heavenly Ranking, and Qi Bachi became fourth.

Of course, if Qi Bachi wanted to advance to the third position on the Heavenly Ranking, he would have to defeat Ye Sword Saint; otherwise, even if he defeated the first on the ranking, he would only move up one place, still behind Ye Sword Saint.

Even so, this news was still shocking enough. With this, Ye Sword Saint would have to enter the Law Enforcer selection by becoming one of the top three!

Receiving this news, Su Yang was also taken aback; he finally understood the method Heavenly Court used.

At such a critical moment, with Qi Bachi defeating Wang Pu, it was evident that this was all premeditated. At this time, it was impossible for Ye Sword Saint to find someone to defeat him, making his participation in the Law Enforcer selection unavoidable.

Simultaneously, this news also confirmed something for Su Yang. Qi Bachi was definitely a pawn of Heavenly Court, and this had likely been their plan all along.

Not long after the news spread, Ye Sword Saint arrived at the Capital City with Ye Wantong, heading straight for Qinghe Academy.

Su Yang was also at Qinghe Academy, discussing this matter with the dean. Seeing Ye Sword Saint arrive, everyone was deeply worried. If Ye Sword Saint entered Heavenly Court, things would become very troublesome!

Upon meeting, there was no time for pleasantries, and the dean directly asked, ”Ye brother, what are your plans?”

Ye Sword Saint did not speak; he merely looked at Su Yang beside him: ”Su Yang, I brought Wantong here. I entrust her to you and hope you can protect her well!”

Su Yang was slightly startled; was Ye Sword Saint preparing to give final instructions? His demeanor suggested he was planning something major.

”Uncle Ye, I will definitely protect Wantong!” Su Yang nodded firmly.

”Very good!” Ye Sword Saint slowly nodded, looking at the few people in the room, and said in a deep voice, ”It seems Heavenly Court does not intend to let me go. At tomorrow’s Law Enforcer selection, Heavenly Court will definitely select me as a Law Enforcer. Since that’s the case, I won’t be courteous to them. Before tomorrow’s decisions, tonight, I will first eradicate their wings completely!”

”What do you mean?” the dean asked in surprise.

Ye Sword Saint did not respond. He walked to the door, drew the longsword behind him, which floated in the air. Standing alone on the sword, he strode away, declaring loudly, ”Tonight, I shall wipe out the Four Major Sects!”

As his words fell, Ye Sword Saint was already out of sight.

Only then did everyone realize what Ye Sword Saint meant by eliminating wings. Ye Sword Saint intended to resolve all Four Major Sects aligned with Heavenly Court before becoming a Law Enforcer!

The dean walked to the door, watching Ye Sword Saint disappearing, worried: ”Facing the Four Major Sects alone, this... this is too dangerous, isn’t it?”

Others were full of concern, but Su Yang remained calm, understanding Ye Sword Saint’s abilities. Defeating the Four Major Sects was no problem for him.

”Uncle Ye facing the Four Major Sects is not an issue, but we must be wary of Heavenly Court’s reaction,” Su Yang said seriously. ”I think we should help protect him against Heavenly Court!”

Everyone looked at each other, wary of Heavenly Court. But if it came to facing Heavenly Court head-on if they intervened, wouldn’t that mean confronting Heavenly Court prematurely?
