Supreme Warrior in the City

Yuan Zhen was a man of action, and with that thought, he wasted no time in taking action.

In a move that took everyone by surprise, Yuan Zhen directly snatched all four crystal gemstones from Su Yang’s hand. The ease of this action even made him doubt somewhat.

Su Yang’s abilities were decent, albeit not as strong as Yuan Zhen’s, but he shouldn’t be this weak.

What is happening now?

When I snatched those four crystal gemstones, Su Yang didn’t resist at all. Has he given up?

Even if I launched a sneak attack, with Su Yang’s level of ability, he should have had some basic reaction—it’s a matter of respecting his own strength, isn’t it?

No reaction at all; if one didn’t know better, they’d think he was deliberately gifting it to me!

Though surprised, Yuan Zhen decided not to overthink it since the four gemstones were now his. The goal accomplished, isn’t that enough?

Now that I have the Feather Spirit Palace map, don’t I have complete control?

Not only will the Heavenly Realm certainly get a map, but I might also gain advantages from the Seven Realms when distributing the other three maps!

As for the Human World, haha, after they’ve said what needs to be said and handed over the map, they can leave!

Yuan Zhen’s sudden grab of the four crystal gemstones immediately angered the Seven Realms.

Before the Human World could speak, the people of the Seven Realms angrily shouted.

”Yuan Zhen, what are you doing?”

”You’ve snatched the Feather Spirit Palace map—Heavenly Realm really wants to take Feather Spirit Palace for themselves!”

”Yuan Zhen, are you courting death?”

”With so many of us here, does the Heavenly Realm think they can just do as they please?”

The crowd howled in anger, surrounding Yuan Zhen, clearly preparing to attack him.

Yuan Zhen wore a broad smile, waving his hands and saying, ”Everyone, everyone, don’t get excited, don’t rush. My Heavenly Realm will not take Feather Spirit Palace for ourselves, absolutely not. Hear me out!”

The crowd was extremely angry; if not for the heavenly court’s significant numbers, they might have started a fight already.

Even so, it took a long time for everyone to gradually calm down, all coldly watching Yuan Zhen to see what he would say.

Yuan Zhen cleared his throat and said loudly, ”Everyone, the Feather Spirit Palace map is inside these four crystal gemstones. How it should be distributed is a matter for our Eight Realms. What qualifications does a nobody from the Human World have to comment on us, judging who among us can get the map and who can’t? Remember, to the Human World, we of the Eight Realms are like gods, while they are mere ants. Do you really want to let an ant dictate your actions?”

Yuan Zhen’s words caused quite a stir among the crowd. His words struck a chord.

Truthfully, the Eight Realms held great disdain for the Human World. If it weren’t for Su Yang controlling the situation, none of them would pay him any mind. Letting Su Yang control everything was something they really didn’t want.

”Moreover, eighty people of the Eight Realms died in Feather Spirit Palace, and Su Yang still hasn’t explained clearly. He claims it has nothing to do with him—haha, does anyone believe that?” Yuan Zhen sneered. ”Even though he lacks the ability to kill all eighty, he’s definitely somewhat responsible. So this owes something to him. Just because he knows the Feather Spirit Palace situation, just because he holds the map, should we forget our grievances?”

The crowd began murmuring; many were here for revenge. Su Yang’s earlier words made them temporarily forget, but now Yuan Zhen had brought it back up.

Watching the crowd’s expressions, Yuan Zhen couldn’t help but secretly laugh, knowing his objective was achieved.

”Now, taking these four crystal gemstones isn’t a matter of monopolizing Feather Spirit Palace—our Heavenly Realm would never do such a thing!” Yuan Zhen said loudly. ”I only want to prevent this clown from performing tricks here, to stop an ant-like person from directing us gods!”

Yuan Zhen’s voice grew louder, practically shouting slogans, truly drawing considerable support.

Of course, these were people who had a good relationship with the Heavenly Realm or intensely hated Su Yang, like Gui Chong, who was clamoring the most.

Gui Chong even glared fiercely at Su Yang, and if Liu Jing weren’t standing nearby Su Yang, Gui Chong might have directly struck and killed Su Yang.

The scene grew increasingly chaotic; some were still confused, momentarily unsure of what to do. Others, opposing the Heavenly Realm, didn’t verbally support Yuan Zhen. But clearly, these people definitely wouldn’t help Su Yang either. As Yuan Zhen said, Su Yang had lost his usefulness; who would care about his life or death?

Others loudly supported Yuan Zhen, completely siding with the Heavenly Realm. These people even surrounded Su Yang, apparently getting ready to kill him to show their sincerity to the Heavenly Realm.

Liu Jing stood near Su Yang with people from the Buddha Domain, keeping others at bay. The attackers held off because the Buddha Domain had clearly expressed their support for Su Yang.

Gui Chong, previously outmatched by Liu Jing’s monk, now looked smug. Seeing everyone’s expressions, he sneered, ”Liu Jing, what do you mean by this? Do you plan on continuing to support Su Yang? Know that this puts you against the Seven Realms!”

Liu Jing calmly glanced at Gui Chong and said contemptuously, ”You have no standing to speak to me—shut up and get lost. Otherwise, I don’t mind sending you off here and now!”

Gui Chong roared in anger, ”Liu Jing, how dare you remain so arrogant at this point? Look at the situation; the Seven Realms are unified, yet the Buddha Domain obstinately opposes us. Do you really think your ability alone can withstand our Seven Realms? Or does the Buddha Domain dare to defy the entire Seven Realms?”

Gui Chong invoked the Seven Realms continuously, fully intent on using them to pressure Liu Jing.

Liu Jing coldly looked at Gui Chong and suddenly struck, sending another ray of golden light towards Gui Chong.

Gui Chong’s expression changed; in this situation, he hadn’t expected Liu Jing to attack. Even with the situation like this, does Liu Jing not fear provoking the Seven Realms’ wrath?
