Supreme Warrior in the City

When Su Yang was battling the Six Trigrams Saint Venerable, those Holy Beasts stood far away, not daring to get even a bit closer.

So, they didn’t know the exact outcome of the battle.

They only knew from the spatial fluctuations that the battle had ended. Therefore, they started flying toward the battlefield, intending to congratulate the Six Trigrams Saint Venerable. After all, in their eyes, the victory of the Six Trigrams Saint Venerable was certain, and losing was simply out of the question.

Who would have thought they’d hear that shout from Su Yang before they reached the battlefield, leaving these Holy Beasts stunned.

The Six Trigrams Saint Venerable actually lost? How could this be possible?

These Holy Beasts also stopped, and at that moment, they were somewhat bewildered.

The Six Trigrams Saint Venerable had lost; should they still go over there?

After a moment of hesitation, a Holy Beast suddenly flew into the air and shouted loudly, ”Congratulations to Saint Venerable, best wishes to Saint Venerable. Our Earth Dragon lineage pledges unwavering loyalty to Saint Venerable!”

The other Holy Beasts exchanged glances, nearly cursing out loud. This Holy Beast was so shameless, switching sides so quickly? And flattering this directly?

In an instant, all the Holy Beasts flew up, heading toward Su Yang while loudly shouting congratulations and best wishes, clearly showing their allegiance to Su Yang.

These Holy Beasts were no fools; with the death of the Six Trigrams Saint Venerable, he had become history. Now, Su Yang was the new Saint Venerable. If they were not loyal, they would lose their lives. So, quickly showing loyalty was crucial. Anyway, they weren’t particularly devoted to the Six Trigrams Saint Venerable and just needed to follow a Saint Venerable, any Saint Venerable.

When these Holy Beasts reached Su Yang, they all knelt to express their loyalty to him.

Su Yang nodded in satisfaction; this was exactly the result he wanted. After giving a few instructions, Su Yang flew directly back to Liu Yao City. He first went to the palace of the Six Trigrams Saint Venerable and found his Spiritual Source.

Seeing the Spiritual Source of the Six Trigrams Saint Venerable, Su Yang was truly shocked. Because the Spiritual Source was astonishingly huge.

The Spiritual Source of the Six Trigrams Saint Venerable was a thousand times bigger than that of the Golden Dragon Lion. Moreover, the crucial point was that this Spiritual Source had even richer Spiritual Energy, incomparable to the Spiritual Sources of those other Holy Beasts.

This is indeed the Spiritual Source of a Saint Venerable, incredibly powerful!

Su Yang felt excited inside; with such a Spiritual Source, it would be enough for the Saints in the Nine Realms to cultivate.

However, if he wanted to go further and become a Saint King, it seems this Spiritual Source wouldn’t be sufficient.

Su Yang was not worried about these matters for now and decided to solve the current issues first. As for future cultivation, it would depend on circumstances.

After touring Liu Yao City, Su Yang gave some new regulations, sent a Holy Beast to deliver a message to the Saint King, indicating his allegiance. Thus, his plan to take over Liu Yao City was entirely successful.

Then, Su Yang summoned all the Holy Beasts under his command for a meeting to rearrange the territory. In fact, Su Yang intended to relocate the outer Holy Beasts and properly arrange those from the Nine Realms. This way, the Saints from the Nine Realms could easily reach the Endless Starry Sky to cultivate.

These Holy Beasts didn’t know exactly what Su Yang was thinking, but the rearrangement of territory seemed normal to them.

After all, with a new ruler come new followers. The confidants of the former ruler, the ones close to the Six Trigrams Saint Venerable, were certainly going to be suppressed and replaced by new Holy Beasts, grooming Su Yang’s confidants, which is what a new Saint Venerable should do.

Once everything was settled, Su Yang summoned Long Qiu, preparing to instruct him to arrange for the Saints from the Nine Realms to enter the Endless Starry Sky to cultivate.

Long Qiu had seen Su Yang’s form as a Demon Beast before, so he recognized Su Yang. Nevertheless, seeing Su Yang sitting high on the throne that belonged to the Six Trigrams Saint Venerable, Long Qiu was deeply impressed.

To know that Su Yang had only recently advanced to the Saint Venerable Realm, he should not have had the power to challenge an established Saint Venerable. Long Qiu had advised Su Yang many times to abandon the idea, to cultivate for a while longer first.

But Su Yang was determined. During this time, Long Qiu was contemplating whether to just pack up and leave because Su Yang’s challenge against the Six Trigrams Saint Venerable seemed a sure path to death.

Unexpectedly, the result was such that Su Yang triumphantly prevailed, and the veteran Six Trigrams Saint Venerable had been slain by Su Yang, which was beyond his expectations.

However, Long Qiu was overjoyed. Su Yang’s strength indicated that he had found a good backing. Moreover, with Su Yang’s complete control over the region, Long Qiu could expect many benefits.

Su Yang explained the tasks, and after hearing them, Long Qiu was taken aback: ”Boss, at this time, why would you let them cultivate on Brother Xiong’s territory?”

”What’s wrong?” Su Yang asked puzzled, unsure of what Long Qiu meant.

”The deeper you go into the Endless Starry Sky, the more dangerous it becomes,” Long Qiu stated. ”I suggest you place Brother Xiong and them nearest to the Nine Realms. Then, give him a few more Spiritual Sources; that would be enough for the Saints of the Nine Realms to cultivate. There’s really no need to let them venture so deep into the Sixth Region, it’s too risky. If discovered by other Demon Beasts and reported to the Saint King, you wouldn’t be able to handle it!”

Su Yang replied, ”I’ve thought of your idea long ago. But the problem is, how to implement it? Where would I find so many readily available Spiritual Sources? I can’t just kill the other Holy Beasts that have Spiritual Sources and place them in the outer region, can I? Wouldn’t that be even more obvious?”

”Boss, why would you need to kill other Holy Beasts now? You’re a Saint Venerable, aren’t Spiritual Sources plentiful for you?” Long Qiu retorted, wide-eyed.

”Plentiful? What do you mean?” Su Yang inquired. ”I do have a large piece here, but I can’t break it up, can I?”

”No, I’m not referring to that large piece, this is for Saint Venerable cultivation. I’m talking about the Treasure House of the Six Trigrams Saint Venerable, surely there are many Spiritual Sources in there,” Long Qiu explained. ”Why do so many Holy Beasts aspire to become a Saint Venerable? Because Saint Venerables have the power to distribute Spiritual Sources. Every Saint Venerable has hundreds of Spiritual Sources at their disposal. But, the distributed ones are just a few dozen, a tenth, and all the remaining Spiritual Sources are hidden by the Saint Venerable, to be awarded later to meritorious Holy Beasts. The Six Trigrams Saint Venerable was quite stingy; the Treasure House must have many Spiritual Sources stored, surely enough for you!”

”Really?” Su Yang exclaimed, eyes wide in surprise, ”There’s a Treasure House? How did I not know about this?”
