Supreme Warrior in the City

”The assassin’s pet?” Su Yang widened his eyes, ”You mean Little Huang?”

”Uh, that’s what you call it. I wouldn’t think so,” the headmaster replied.

”Then what’s its name?” Su Yang asked curiously.

”Honestly, I don’t know what it’s called either, but its name definitely wouldn’t be so casual,” the headmaster said.

”Huh?” Su Yang looked puzzled, ”Then... why is the Moon Dark Day related to it?”

”Because it can devour the moon’s light, dimming the moon, thus resulting in a Moon Dark Day,” the headmaster said.

”Huh?” Su Yang stared, isn’t this the celestial dog eating the moon? Is there such a thing?

”The celestial dog eating the moon?” Su Yang asked.

”You could say that.” The headmaster nodded.

”Isn’t that a lunar eclipse?” Su Yang wondered.

The headmaster nodded again, ”You could say that too.”

Su Yang was dumbfounded, his mind a bit blank.

”This... is Little Huang really that capable?” Su Yang asked in disbelief. He knew Little Huang was no simple creature, but who would have thought Little Huang was this formidable?

”Heh...” The headmaster glanced at Su Yang and said, ”Is it capable? Let me put it this way, nobody in the Nine Realms can clearly say what Little Huang’s origin is!”

”Huh?” Su Yang was once again shocked. Nobody in the Nine Realms can clarify it? That’s terrifying!

”But evidence suggests Little Huang likely emerged from the Demon Abyss,” the headmaster said solemnly.

”What!?” Su Yang’s eyes widened again. He knew well what it meant to emerge from the Demon Abyss.

The three great death zones have existed for so long, the Nine Realms have had some contact with Storm Valley and Feather Spirit Palace, but they still have no understanding of the Demon Abyss, which shows how formidable the Demon Abyss is.

Little Huang emerged from the Demon Abyss, so how could Little Huang have an ordinary identity?

No wonder it could devour moonlight, Su Yang now had no doubt that Little Huang could indeed bring about a Moon Dark Day.

”So, the assassin guards the moon, and the Martial Champion guards the Jieyue Tower...” Su Yang frowned, ”So the Human World can maintain temporary safety?”

”You could say that.” The headmaster nodded.

As if sensing Su Yang had more to say, the headmaster continued, ”The Martial Champion entering the Jieyue Tower was also a matter of no choice. He originally learned from multiple schools to push his power to the extreme, intending to realize his ideology. But at the time, the first generation Martial God guarding Jieyue Tower saw his intention. After the Martial Champion left the Buddha Palace, the first generation Martial God deliberately fought a battle in Outer Heaven, ultimately dying and leaving the Jieyue Tower unguarded. At that time, in the Human World, no one could guard Jieyue Tower. If the Martial Champion didn’t step in, the Human World would collapse before his plan even began. Therefore, he had no choice but to enter Jieyue Tower and stand guard!”

Su Yang was almost numb from shock at these consecutive revelations. He took a few deep breaths and whispered, ”The first generation Martial God also guarded the Jieyue Tower?”

”Not just the first generation Martial God!” The headmaster said, ”The second generation Martial God still guards the moon. The third generation Martial God was going to replace the second, but someone temporarily filled in, so the third-generation Martial God is still in seclusion, not yet out.”

”You mean the assassin, right?” Su Yang asked.

”Not him!” The headmaster shook his head, ”Guarding the moon isn’t a job for just one person. One person can’t guard it.”

Su Yang took a sharp breath, the moon had more than one guardian? How many people are there? Only the strongest cultivators can guard the moon.

The headmaster looked at Su Yang and said softly, ”The Martial Champion being forced into Jieyue Tower is like being trapped in the Human World, naturally unable to continue his ideology. However, his attitude towards the Human World is as it is now, indifferent. Many say he favors his family, but in fact, people do not know that the Martial Champion does not play favoritism. He merely wants his family to have less involvement with the Human Clan. Even your sister misunderstood the Martial Champion; he doesn’t care about power. The one who fought with your sister was merely the Martial Champion’s descendant, not the Martial Champion himself!”

Now, Su Yang understood all this. If it were truly the Martial Champion against the Black Widow, how could Black Widow ever be a match for the Martial Champion!

However, Su Yang still found it hard to accept these facts. If not for the headmaster telling him, he could never have imagined these things.

These news were too shocking, even for Su Yang, who had been through so much, to accept.

”What’s the matter, hard to accept?” The headmaster smiled, ”It’s normal for it to be hard. If you hadn’t passed the Martial Champion’s test, I wouldn’t have disclosed these things to you. You should understand, if these news spread, how much panic would it cause? Think about it, if someone tells you that one day the Human World will be doomed with no salvation, would you despair? And in despair, what might happen? Lashing out in desperation?”

Su Yang slowly nodded, he could understand this. Once these news get out, the Human World would definitely be chaotic. Could those carefree mortals still maintain their current peace?

”What about the other Eight Realms?” Su Yang asked.

”It’s the same,” the headmaster replied. ”Only a handful know about these things, most do not.”

”I mean, do the other Eight Realms also have Jieyue Towers and such crises?” Su Yang asked.

”No,” the headmaster shook his head.

”Huh?” Su Yang widened his eyes, the other Eight Realms don’t have such a crisis, only the Human World? What is this?

”However, the Eight Realms and the Human World are connected by Boundary Points. If the Human World encounters a crisis, they won’t escape either,” the headmaster laughed, ”So, they are more worried than us!”

”They can seal the Boundary Points!” Su Yang said, ”For instance, the Heavenly Realm can shatter the Heavenly Road, and then everything will be fine?”

”Useless!” The headmaster said, ”Even if the Heavenly Road is shattered, it can be repaired; it just takes some time. Sealing Boundary Points can also be undone. You should know, in the face of absolute power, such tinkering is meaningless.”

Su Yang was left speechless, meaning the Eight Realms indeed couldn’t escape such events either.

”Why only the Human World?” Su Yang couldn’t help but question. This seemed too unfair.

”Perhaps it relates to the three great death zones in the Human World!” the headmaster said, ”This kind of crisis appeared roughly a thousand years after the death zones. Since all three are in the Human World, the crisis could only start from the Human World!”
