Supreme Warrior in the City

Afterwards, Su Yang asked the two more questions, but whenever the questions pertained to the Jade-faced Judge’s plans or goals, they could not provide any answers.

Su Yang frowned. While questioning these two individuals, Su Yang realized something.

The twelve Zodiac Ghost Kings are indeed not the confidants of the Jade-faced Judge. These Ghost Kings were subdued by the Jade-faced Judge through various means. Although they are called Ghost Kings by the Jade-faced Judge’s side, in reality, most of the time, they just stay in the place where the Jade-faced Judge resides to cultivate. They only go out when there’s something important to do.

These people stay by the Jade-faced Judge’s side because the Jade-faced Judge provides them with shelter and the best cultivation techniques. In exchange, these individuals work for the Jade-faced Judge.

Over such a long time, these people are indeed loyal to the Jade-faced Judge. However, in fact, their status in the Jade-faced Judge’s heart is not as high as those of the Three-eyed Ghost King and others. After all, those like the Three-eyed Ghost King are the true confidants of the Jade-faced Judge!

Su Yang asked many things but couldn’t get any valuable information, and eventually gave up.

”One last question...” Su Yang said in a deep voice, ”When you came to find us, did you already know where we were hiding, or did you track us all the way?”

”We already knew you were hiding in that cave!” the Sheep King quickly replied, ”The Jade-faced Judge has a secret technique called Phantom Soul Tracking. If the Phantom Soul is sprinkled on someone, as long as it stains them, it cannot be removed within a month. No matter where they hide, as long as they are in the same space as the Jade-faced Judge, he can find your location; there’s no escape!”

Su Yang suddenly understood. It seems his guess was correct. The group from Capital City really did sprinkle Phantom Soul on him, and the Jade-faced Judge used this Phantom Soul Tracking technique to follow him.

Nodding slowly, Su Yang stood up and gave the two a cold look: ”Gentlemen, your answers aren’t very satisfactory. Next, I will go ask others. I still say this: if they know more than you, it only shows that you are useless!”

The two were immediately flustered, knowing all too well what the consequence would be if they were proven useless.

”Su Alliance Leader, please... don’t be in a hurry...” the Sheep King hurriedly blocked Su Yang, grinning, ”I... I also know some other information, could I... could I share it with you...”

”Other information?” Su Yang slightly frowned, glanced at the Sheep King, ”What information, I need to see if it’s valuable!”

The Sheep King took a deep breath and said in a low voice, ”I suspect that the Jade-faced Judge is much older!”

”Nonsense!” Su Yang glared, ”He’s not much younger than the Martial Champion, of course, he’s old!”

”I don’t mean that...” the Sheep King quickly said, ”I mean, he’s much older than the Martial Champion!”

Su Yang’s heart skipped a beat, and he stared directly at the Sheep King: ”Much older, what do you mean? How much older is considered much older?”

”As far as I know, at least three hundred years old!” the Sheep King said in a deep voice.

”What!?” Su Yang’s eyes widened immediately. Three hundred years, that’s way more than just much older! That has already exceeded Su Yang’s known range!

You know, the Jade-faced Judge hasn’t yet entered the Land Immortal Realm. Normally, one’s lifespan shouldn’t exceed two hundred years.

However, martial champions like the Jade-faced Judge and Mahakaya probably have taken immortality medicine, so living another hundred or two hundred years would be normal.

But if the Jade-faced Judge is three hundred years older than the martial champion, that’s a serious problem. At the very least, it means the Jade-faced Judge has lived for over six hundred years.

The first time taking immortality medicine allows one to live another lifetime, at most two hundred years. A second time, taking immortality medicine is useless. So, what method did the Jade-faced Judge use to live for another lifetime?

Also, if the Jade-faced Judge has indeed lived for over six hundred years, what a shocking revelation that would be! But why does no one know this?

Su Yang knitted his brows, pondering deeply for a long time: ”How do you know this?”

”This was something the Jade-faced Judge asked me to do a long time ago...” the Sheep King replied, ”He sent me to kill a family and get a box from them. I didn’t know what was happening at the time, so I just followed his orders. After dealing with the family, I found the box. I was going to bring the box back, but it had been stored for so long, it broke in transit, and I saw what was inside...”

At this point, the Sheep King’s face turned slightly pale, and he said in a low voice: ”Inside, I saw a portrait, and the person painted was the Jade-faced Judge!”

”And then?” Su Yang said in a deep voice, ”This doesn’t prove how long the Jade-faced Judge has lived!”

”But the issue is, that painting was made over six hundred years ago!”

Su Yang’s eyes widened sharply, a bright light flashed through his eyes; this information indeed shocked him profoundly.

After thinking for a while, Su Yang said in a deep voice: ”You’re sure that the person in the painting is the Jade-faced Judge? And not someone who looks a lot like him?”

”I’m sure!” the Sheep King replied decisively, ”A similar appearance couldn’t possibly have identical minute details. The person in the painting is exactly the same as the Jade-faced Judge; this definitely isn’t just a matter of resemblance!”

Su Yang frowned deeply. The Sheep King’s certainty filled his heart with doubt. What on earth could this mean? If the person in the painting is indeed the Jade-faced Judge, does that not mean the Jade-faced Judge has indeed lived for over six hundred years?

If that is the case, what exactly is the Jade-faced Judge’s situation?

Why would he hide these secrets if he has lived so long?

”I found the situation strange at the time, but I didn’t dare to ask the Jade-faced Judge. So, I secretly started investigating the matter, exploring the background of that family,” the Sheep King paused, speaking in a low voice: ”In the end, I discovered another shocking piece of information!”

”What?” Su Yang quickly asked. The information the Sheep King provided was very important.

”That family, over three hundred years ago, was actually a very prosperous clan. Back then, their power wasn’t much less than the current Jade-faced Judge. The Family Head was also a very terrifying expert and never entered the Land Immortal Realm. However, the family head died in an accident later, and the family gradually declined, eventually becoming completely ordinary!”

Su Yang took a deep breath, associating it with the Jade-faced Judge. The situation of that family head and the Jade-faced Judge seemed very similar.

Could it be that the family head was the Jade-faced Judge? If this is true, then the revelation would be even more shocking!

Did the Jade-faced Judge send people to eradicate his former family? What exactly is he trying to hide?
