Supreme Warrior in the City

The people from Lingxiao Pavilion and the Edge of the World clearly intend to sit back and watch, letting the Second Elder and the Jade-faced Judge deal with Su Yang first.

However, Su Yang is not a fool. How could he fall into such a trap set by these people?

Seeing those few individuals approaching, Su Yang suddenly looked up and shouted loudly: ”Ling Sect Leader, Qi Sect Leader, the Second Elder is right here. You don’t need to set up an array anymore. There aren’t many of them, and the people from the Sky Blade Peak haven’t come; they can’t escape. Come down directly and you can kill him!”

Upon hearing this, the Second Elder’s face instantly changed, and he also looked up at the sky, panic written across his face. Previously, he nearly lost his life at the hands of the Lingxiao Sect Leader and Qi Sect Leader, making him like a bird startled by the mere twang of a bowstring. Hearing now that they are here, how could his heart not be troubled?

In the sky, the Lingxiao Sect Leader and Qi Sect Leader’s complexions changed as well, with Qi Sect Leader immediately cursing angrily: ”Damn it, that bastard Su is so despicable! By shouting like this, won’t it make the Second Elder aware that we’re here? This bastard is really too insidious. Ling Sect Leader, what now? Should we just lead our people down to kill them?”

The Lingxiao Sect Leader shook his head slightly: ”No rush, let’s see their reaction first. They might not believe Su Yang’s words!”

Qi Sect Leader paused for a moment, then rejoiced: ”That’s right, they might not believe what Su Yang said. Ha ha, trying to pit us, he is still too naive.”

The Second Elder stared at the sky for a while but found nothing. He frowned and coldly eyed Su Yang: ”Su, trying to scare me? You think I would be fooled by your talk of Lingxiao Pavilion and Edge of the World people?”

”Heh heh...” Su Yang smirked: ”Why would I try to scare you? If you don’t believe me, so be it. Come, continue letting your people come to kill us. We can have a good fight here. Either way, with all of you surrounding me, I can’t escape. Why should I be in a hurry?”

The Second Elder furrowed his brows, glanced at the Jade-faced Judge beside him, and whispered: ”Elder Ge, do you sense any movement?”

The Jade-faced Judge naturally knew there were people lying in ambush, but he pretended to know nothing, shaking his head: ”No, I don’t feel anything!”

”Nothing felt?” The Second Elder was surprised: ”Do you think he might have connected with the Lingxiao Pavilion and Edge of the World people to ambush us?”

”Impossible?” The Jade-faced Judge feigned ignorance: ”Those people surely wouldn’t trust them. How could he possibly have those people ambush us?”

The Second Elder thought for a moment, then slowly nodded: ”You’re right, Su has already lost credibility, and no one would listen to him. That’s right, we don’t need to rush. He can’t deceive me so easily!”

Watching the Second Elder walk away, a slight cold smile played at the corners of the Jade-faced Judge’s mouth. This Second Elder is truly a fool but pretends to be so clever.

The Second Elder approached Su Yang, sneering: ”Su Yang, do you really think I’m a fool? That a few shouts would deceive us? Ha ha ha, you underestimate us too much, and overestimate yourself!”

High above, upon hearing the Second Elder’s words, Qi Sect Leader sighed in relief, sneering: ”Ling Sect Leader, you were right, these people indeed don’t trust that Su. Hmph, trying to force us out—he must be dreaming!”

The Lingxiao Sect Leader chuckled coldly, also full of complacency.

Su Yang, however, remained calm, speaking slowly: ”The Second Elder is not easily tricked. But the question is, am I deceiving you, or is someone else?”

The Second Elder couldn’t understand Su Yang’s implication and said angrily: ”What is there to say? Of course it’s you deceiving me!”

”Ha ha ha...” Su Yang laughed loudly: ”Second Elder, you are indeed too naive. No wonder you’ve come to this point. Honestly, someone like you wanting to achieve great things—I’d advise you to save your energy. Surviving times like these is already a huge stroke of luck!”

”Su, you’re courting death!” the Second Elder yelled angrily: ”Why are you all standing still? Capture him for me!”

Just as those around were about to move, Su Yang suddenly chuckled, ”Second Elder, don’t get agitated just yet. I know you don’t believe what I say, but we should act cautiously, shouldn’t we?”

The Second Elder frowned: ”What are you trying to say?”

”I contacted the Lingxiao Pavilion and Edge of the World people, but unfortunately, they seem to want to trick me. Since that’s the case, I can’t let them take advantage of us!” Su Yang grinned: ”Since I can’t run away today, how about this: send someone up to take a look. The Lingxiao Pavilion and Edge of the World people are hiding above. Once your person finds them, you’ll know if I’m lying or not!”

The Lingxiao Sect Leader’s expression suddenly shifted. He originally intended to trick Su Yang, not anticipating that Su Yang would use this tactic. It frustrated him greatly, but he had no solution—Su Yang was more astute than he’d imagined.

The Second Elder scratched his head and said gravely: ”Su, what other tricks are you trying to pull?”

”Second Elder, Lu brother and I are right here; what could we possibly be plotting?” Su Yang grinned: ”Besides, I’m just suggesting you send someone to check the sky; it won’t affect the big picture. If the Lingxiao Pavilion and Edge of the World people aren’t up there, then yes, I tricked you. But if they’re up there, at most you’ll lose just one person—which isn’t too great a loss. However, if they’re above and successfully set up an array, you might find you can’t even run. Sending just one person to check, you might even disrupt their array setup—it’s quite worthwhile, don’t you think?”

The Second Elder frowned, Su Yang’s reasoning beginning to sway him.

To be honest, when Su Yang mentioned the Lingxiao Pavilion and Edge of the World people watching from above earlier, the Second Elder was quite anxious, truly worried those people were lying in wait.

Even though there was no movement in the sky, he still felt uneasy inside. Now, hearing Su Yang’s argument, he genuinely felt persuaded.

Sending just one person to check doesn’t require him to go himself, and it could prevent the enemy from setting up an array. It’s indeed quite suitable.

The Second Elder turned to the Jade-faced Judge, whispering: ”Elder Ge, what do you think?”

A flurry of thoughts crossed the Jade-faced Judge’s mind. Of course, he knew the Lingxiao Pavilion and Edge of the World’s people were there in the sky. He didn’t actually want to send anyone to investigate. However, he couldn’t find a reason to refute Su Yang’s words. On the contrary, not agreeing could make the Second Elder suspicious of him.

Before finding the Boundary Point, he needed to ensure the Second Elder’s trust and absolutely avoid arousing his suspicion!

Though still somewhat unwilling, the Jade-faced Judge nodded slowly, agreeing to the matter.
