Supreme Warrior in the City

If Su Yang and his companions were here and heard the words of the Jade-faced Judge, they would undoubtedly be shocked.

The Jade-faced Judge hadn’t even seen Qi Zhishan, yet he could predict the events with such clarity. With such strategy, no wonder the Black Widow described him that way!

Just as the Black Widow said, among those who can stand shoulder to shoulder with the Beigong War God, who could be weak? There are no fools among them!

The Jade-faced Judge is indeed a genius among geniuses!

”Can three incomplete pages of the Dragon God Technique really cause such a transformation in Qi Zhishan’s power?” Ge Kaiyang asked in amazement.

”There must also be Su Yang’s help!” the Jade-faced Judge said in a deep voice. ”The Heavenly Destiny Treasure Book encompasses everything. It records so many things, perhaps even something about the Dragon God Technique. Su Yang is also skilled in alchemy. After discovering Qi Zhishan’s death, he probably used alchemy to save Qi Zhishan. The power of the Dragon God Technique has the effect of Nirvana Rebirth. The potion Su Yang concocted may have triggered the power of the Dragon God Technique, thus causing a comprehensive change in Qi Zhishan’s power!”

”Is that so?” Ge Kaiyang was even more stunned, not expecting the situation to be like this.

In fact, the situation was exactly as the Jade-faced Judge described, not missing a single point!

”In that case, Qi Zhishan’s strength has advanced yet another step!” Ge Kaiyang looked at the nearby Three-eyed Ghost King: ”Even the Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak was defeated by him, and the Heavenly Blade couldn’t withstand his Dragon God Technique. Then... who else can be his opponent? His strength has even surpassed the previous Beigong War God!”

The Three-eyed Ghost King nodded repeatedly, still vividly remembering the terrifying power when Qi Zhishan struck before.

The Jade-faced Judge’s brows also furrowed. The sudden change in Qi Zhishan was not part of his calculations. Qi Zhishan’s strong emergence disrupted his plans to some extent.

”It’s not impossible to kill him!” the Jade-faced Judge said resolutely. ”Next, Qi Zhishan will definitely challenge the Martial Champion. By observing how long he can last under the Martial Champion, we can determine his exact strength. At that time, we can decide how to kill him. The most crucial thing now is to deal with the matters concerning the Four Major Sects!”

”The Four Major Sects?” Ge Kaiyang asked in surprise. ”What about the Four Major Sects?”

”The plan this time was proposed by us, and with such a disastrous result, the Four Major Sects will definitely place all the blame on us!” the Jade-faced Judge said sternly. ”The Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak hasn’t returned yet. When he does, the Four Major Sects will surely come to hold us accountable!”

”What?” Ge Kaiyang panicked. ”Then... what should we do?”

”No need to rush!” the Jade-faced Judge took a deep breath and said decisively, ”It seems we should activate the Tianya Haijiao piece now!”

”At this moment?” the Three-eyed Ghost King was somewhat puzzled. ”Master, Tianya Haijiao is very hostile towards us. If the Four Major Sects really come to hold us accountable, Tianya Haijiao will surely be the first to confront us and may even want to deal with us first. At this time, getting them to do anything would probably be difficult!”

”Not necessarily!” the Jade-faced Judge shook his head. ”The Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak hasn’t returned. He also won’t dare linger in Heaven, so he will rush back at full speed, having no time to send word back. Thus, the Four Major Sects have not yet received the news, only we have. This is our advantage, and it’s our opportunity. Moreover, the Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak, who is the biggest supporter of the Second Elder, is not here. This is the perfect timing for Tianya Haijiao to act!”

”Oh?” the Three-eyed Ghost King immediately became excited. ”Then we will start the action ahead of schedule!”

The Jade-faced Judge took a deep breath and said softly, ”Begin!”

The Three-eyed Ghost King immediately stood up and hurriedly went out to make arrangements.

Ge Kaiyang stood beside the Jade-faced Judge, still looking frightened, and whispered, ”Grandfather, Qi Zhishan keeps shouting about wanting to kill me. If we incite a civil war among the Four Major Sects in advance, their strength will definitely drop rapidly. By then, if Qi Zhishan attacks, I... I will be in danger...”

”Don’t worry!” the Jade-faced Judge gently consoled. ”I have my own arrangements. Qi Zhishan is not as strong as he seems, and in front of me, he won’t be able to act recklessly. Besides, you know, once our grand plan succeeds, whether it’s Qi Zhishan or whatever Heaven, they are nothing more than ants. You will inherit my unparalleled legacy and be the master of this world. You need not fear these people!”

These words eased Ge Kaiyang’s heart, and a smile appeared on his face. ”Grandfather, you are the best to me!”

The Jade-faced Judge smiled faintly and affectionately patted Ge Kaiyang’s shoulder. ”Go and rest a bit; I’ll handle the next matters for you!”

Ge Kaiyang smiled with relief, finally feeling at ease, and went down happily to rest.

The Jade-faced Judge walked to the window, quietly watching the garden outside. After a long silence, he whispered, ”Qi Zhishan, you truly exceeded my expectations. But so what? Everything you do today will ultimately serve my plans!”

...

The majority of the people from the Four Major Sects resided in this city because they had agreed to a showdown with Heaven here in two days.

It was precisely for this reason that most of the experts from Heaven gathered across the river, confronting the Four Major Sects from afar. Otherwise, the Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak and his associates would never have silently entered the realm of Heaven.

The Second Elder of the Medicine Sect, now acting as the controller of the Heavenly Court and also of the Four Major Sects, resided in the most luxurious estate.

At this moment, the Sect Leader of Tianya Haijiao was by the Second Elder’s side, exhaustively recounting the events concerning Qi Zhishan.

”I feel that there is no need for us to provoke Qi Zhishan!” the Sect Leader said in a serious tone. ”The matter between Qi Bachi and the Heavenly Court is purely transactional. Otherwise, when the Investiture of the Gods appeared, they wouldn’t have detained the Land Immortal of the Qi Family. The Qi Family on Lake Heart Island only defected to Heaven because of that. Trying to use Qi Bachi’s connections to recruit Qi Zhishan to our side now is completely wishful thinking. It’s utterly impossible!”

The Second Elder stood by the window, his expression cold, not even glancing at the Sect Leader, and said in a deep voice, ”I never planned to bring Qi Zhishan under the command of the Heavenly Court!”

The Sect Leader was stunned for a moment, dumbfounded. ”Then... why did we send people to find Qi Zhishan and create such a big fuss? We’ve lured Heaven’s people over, and in two days, if we retreat without a fight, the reputation of our Heavenly Court will be ruined!”
