Supreme Warrior in the City

Su Yang stayed in Saint King Xiangyun’s Royal City for half a year. During this time, he observed the guards in the Royal Hall to see if they could detect that the Saint King had been replaced. On the other hand, he mainly gathered information about the Imperial City.

After six months, none of the guards in the Royal Hall had discovered that the Saint King had been replaced. Meanwhile, Su Yang had almost gathered all the necessary information about the Imperial City.

Next, Su Yang commenced his actions.

He quietly killed three guards, turning three Crystal Skulls into those guards’ appearances, and then led them straight to the Imperial City.

Upon reaching the Imperial City, patrolling Demon Beasts immediately approached. Seeing Saint King Xiangyun, they relaxed their vigilance, casually asked a few questions, and then led Su Yang and his companions directly into the Imperial City.

This time, Su Yang came under the guise of visiting some old friends. However, upon entering the Imperial City, they temporarily settled down.

That evening, Su Yang went to one Saint King’s house, claiming it was a visit. In reality, after entering this Saint King’s home, Su Yang directly used an Array to seal off a section, launching a surprise attack and killing the Saint King.

Afterward, Su Yang transformed into the slain Saint King, and this act did not alert anyone.

Given Su Yang’s current strength, with the cover of the Array and the surprise attack, and with no Saint Emperor guarding the Imperial City, no one could detect his actions here.

Su Yang chose this particular Saint King because he was an attendant within the Imperial Hall and could enter it at any time.

Many Saint Kings guarded the Imperial Hall, and the identity of Saint King Xiangyun alone couldn’t grant access inside. The identity of Saint King Xiangyun could only allow Su Yang to enter the Imperial City.

After transforming into this Saint King, Su Yang immediately disguised the three Crystal Skulls as the three attendants beside the Saint King. Then he led all three of them with great swagger to the Imperial Hall.

There were many guards in the Imperial Hall, but upon seeing Su Yang approach, they immediately opened the doors to welcome him. An attendant within the Imperial Hall could enter and exit freely.

Upon entering the Imperial Hall, Su Yang observed the surroundings, noticing that no one was paying attention to them, and promptly waved the three companions to search for the Treasure House.

These three companions efficiently pretended to patrol as they began searching the Imperial Hall.

It took less than half an hour before they found the Treasure House.

This Treasure House was exceptionally well hidden, far more than previous Saint King’s Treasure Houses. However, to these three master thieves, such concealment was child’s play.

The real difficulty lay in the restriction outside the Treasure House. This was left by Yingming Saint Emperor himself, equating to an attack from Yingming Saint Emperor, with extremely formidable power. Without another Saint Emperor trying to seize it, the Treasure House remained absolutely safe.

”Boss, we found the place; you’ll need to grab the items yourself!” muttered the Second City Lord quietly.

Su Yang took a deep breath and approached the Treasure House.

The Treasure House resided beneath a section of Overlapping Space; once inside, there was no worry about being noticed outside since they’re in a different space.

Su Yang reverted to human form, slowly approaching the Treasure House. As he got closer, a massive eagle suddenly appeared before it, its eyes gleaming sharply, staring fixedly at Su Yang. From its stance, if Su Yang took one more step forward, it seemed ready to claw him to death.

This was the restriction left by Yingming Saint Emperor, formed by his own power, which was very strong.

Su Yang took a deep breath and forced himself forward.

The giant eagle seemed to become enraged, letting out a loud cry and fiercely swooping its claws down.

Su Yang immediately raised his hand to block, marking his first time resisting a blow from a Saint Emperor.

Without any suspense, Su Yang’s flesh and blood were shattered, and he himself was knocked flying. The immense force nearly dismantled Su Yang.

Thankfully, Su Yang’s bones were tough enough, and the blow did not damage them.

Comparing this hit, Su Yang clearly realized that while the Saint Emperor’s power is strong, it still doesn’t surpass the Storm Power within Storm Valley. Su Yang suspected that the Storm Power in Storm Valley might have already exceeded the realm of Dark Level.

Withstanding the blow, Su Yang generally understood the strength of the Yingming Saint Emperor.

He took a deep breath and approached again. This time, he didn’t resist Yingming Saint Emperor’s strike head-on. As Yingming Saint Emperor attacked, he swiftly dodged the strike and dashed toward the Treasure House at the back.

The giant eagle erupted in fury, emitting a resounding eagle cry, and with a flurry of its wings, a powerful force hit Su Yang, nearly causing him to lose his footing.

Following that, the giant eagle lunged, opening its massive beak as if intending to devour Su Yang directly.

At this moment, Su Yang’s hand produced a long blade, the Heaven-Slaying Blade, swept across.

With one slash, the eagle’s head was severed, and it promptly vanished into smoke.

”Yeah!” the three Crystal Skulls shouted excitedly from behind.

However, before they could celebrate, the surrounding Overlapping Space suddenly shattered, emanating a powerful force. Immediately, voices outside exclaimed: ”Someone has broken into the Royal Hall!”

Su Yang’s expression changed drastically, not expecting Yingming Saint Emperor to leave such a contingency. He had shattered the power left by Yingming Saint Emperor, and his power triggered the collapse of the Overlapping Space, emitting a signal.

Thinking no more, Su Yang swiftly packed away the three Crystal Skulls, charged in to grab the Treasure House, and turned to flee.

As he just exited, he saw five Saint Kings flying toward him.

”Who are you!” shouted one Saint King furiously, and the others were straightforward, surrounding him directly.

”It’s your grandpa!” Su Yang cursed and turned to flee.

He hadn’t run far before more Saint Kings blocked his path.

”Where do you think you’re going!” shouted one Saint King.

Saint Kings flew from all directions, gathering above the Royal Hall to intercept Su Yang.

Su Yang frowned deeply; the operation had been smooth until now, who could have predicted Yingming Saint Emperor would leave such a trick, directly trapping him in encirclement. If caught by so many Saint Kings, it would be tough to escape.

”Get out of the way now!” Su Yang bellowed, charging at several Saint Kings: ”Those who obstruct me will die!”

These Saint Kings didn’t dodge or relent, and one shouted angrily: ”Such audacity, to dare to cause trouble in our Yingming Dynasty, kill him!”
