Supreme Warrior in the City

Seeing the three people charge forward, Su Yang was momentarily stunned.

We haven’t even made a move yet, and you all have already attacked? Are you really in such a hurry? Shouldn’t you assess the surroundings first?

The others were also taken aback, thinking, given there’s so many of us surrounding you, but it’s you who attacked first? Have the people of the Heavenly Realm become so impatient?

However, the crowd’s reaction was quick. Soon, the Beigong War God, Qi Zhishan, and Mahakaya simultaneously stepped in to block the three people.

These three people were formidable fighters. Based on Su Yang’s earlier assessment, their skills were considered medium among the ninety individuals entering the Feather Spirit Palace.

Yet, matched against these three from the Heavenly Realm, Beigong War God and his companions were quickly overpowered and were at a disadvantage, being pressed hard by the Heavenly Realm trio.

Su Yang was bewildered once more. Are all the emissaries from the Heavenly Realm this formidable?

The three, including Beigong War God, were especially frustrated. Qi Zhishan exclaimed indignantly, ”Are these three people insane? Why are they fighting so desperately?”

Su Yang also noticed something was off. These three individuals had no intention of defending themselves, attacking with all their might instead. They showed no fear of the many people surrounding them, launching each strike with full force, leaving no room for defense.

It appeared as if they had no intention of surviving, merely aiming to take a few down with them, fighting to the death.

Coupled with their emotionless expressions and their bloodshot eyes, Su Yang suddenly realized these three truly had a problem!

”I’m coming!” Su Yang whispered sternly, rushing from behind toward the person at the front and delivering a palm strike.

The one fighting against this person was Beigong War God. Seeing Su Yang’s move, Beigong War God instinctively wanted to retreat. He valued his reputation and didn’t want to work with Su Yang against such an opponent.

”Don’t retreat!” Su Yang barked.

Beigong War God hesitated briefly, but heeded Su Yang’s words, continuing to confront this person head-on.

From behind, Su Yang sent forth a powerful and imposing palm strike. The force was terrifyingly strong. If it landed on the person, it was sure to cause serious injury.

However, Su Yang’s speed was notably slow. At this speed, not only could this person evade the attack, but even someone like previously mentioned Yanfieshan Zang could easily dodge it.

Yet, this individual behaved as if unaware of the impending strike, continuing to assault Beigong War God relentlessly. His eyes were so bloodshot they almost bled, and strange guttural sounds escaped his mouth as saliva dripped, he resembled a maddened beast.

Ultimately, Su Yang’s palm strike landed heavily on the individual’s back.

Everyone present was dumbfounded. This person could have easily dodged that strike.

Although Beigong War God was confronting him, he was merely holding him off, not restricting him.

Su Yang’s slow strike was obvious and entirely avoidable.

Yet, the person stubbornly refused to dodge, attacking Beigong War God feverishly, completely ignoring the attack from behind.

It all seemed as if the person was purposefully courting death.

Everyone was baffled, wondering what kind of battle strategy this was.

Su Yang’s brow furrowed; when he struck this person, he distinctly felt an unusual force within. This force clearly didn’t belong to this individual yet had control over him.

Earlier, when Su Yang attacked, he could distinctly feel this person’s own power struggling to repel the strike. However, the strange force continually suppressed him, heedless of the attack, causing this outcome.

Essentially, this person was being controlled by the peculiar force, explaining the situation.

Yet, where did this odd power originate from?

It should be noted, even though this person’s strength fell short of Su Yang’s, he was still formidable. Qualifying to be among the Nine Realms’ ninety wasn’t for the weak.

Even someone as invincible as Yang Wudi wouldn’t easily control him.

Who then possessed the ability to control this person?

At this moment, an even more astonishing event unfolded.

The man whom Su Yang had struck, amazingly got up slowly. Despite his shattered bones, struggling to stand, he still managed to shake his head and charge toward the nearest Second Young Master Zhang with a roar.

Everyone was awe-struck seeing this. They had all witnessed the devastating impact of Su Yang’s prior attack. Logically, this man shouldn’t have been able to move, let alone live.

Yet now, incredibly, he stood again. Despite his injuries, he resumed his assault, which was immensely shocking.

Second Young Master Zhang didn’t draw his sword but instead struck the man with the sword’s scabbard.

The man collapsed from the blow. Although he could rise again, his internal organs were shattered, bones fractured, rendering his strength unexposed, his power drastically decreasing.

Nevertheless, he stood once more, seemingly impervious to pain or fear, continually lunging at Second Young Master Zhang.

Frowning slightly, Second Young Master Zhang unsheathed his longsword, striking the individual fiercely.

Nobody anticipated that this strike would lead to great calamity.

The man’s body was cleaved by the sword, and suddenly, a cloud of black mist burst forth, enveloping Second Young Master Zhang.

Unprepared, Second Young Master Zhang was enveloped by the black mist. Quick to react, he immediately invoked his Protective Gang Qi to ward off the black mist.

However, the mist appeared to have no physical form or power, bypassing Second Young Master Zhang’s Protective Gang Qi unimpeded, entering through his body’s orifices.

Onlookers were aghast, their faces changing drastically.

While they were unsure what the black mist was, they knew it was no good.

Su Yang was especially alarmed. He could clearly sense that this black mist was the strange force within the man, controlling him previously.

Once Second Young Master Zhang split the man’s body, the black mist emerged, seemingly now intent on possessing Second Young Master Zhang.
