Supreme Warrior in the City

Saint Emperor Luan Yu nodded slowly. Putting aside other matters, the influence of Jinghong Saint King within the Demon Beast Clan is indeed significant. During the previous war between the Demon Beast Clan and the Guardian God, he played a substantial role in uniting the Demon Beast Clan. The Sacred Emperors of the Demon Beast Clan need not be mentioned, but below them, all the demon beasts truly admire Jinghong Saint King.

”Such a presence with strong appeal within the Demon Beast Clan, and who was actively involved in contacting allies during the previous war against the Guardian God. If he were to die like this, what kind of impact would it have on the Demon Beast Clan?” Su Yang said softly, ”Everyone knows the situation. If he is executed like this, wouldn’t it make other demon beasts think he died because he stood against the Guardian God? In this way, who would dare stand up to resist the Guardian God in the future?”

Saint Emperor Luan Yu’s eyes widened, and his emotions were stirred. At this point, Su Yang’s intentions were already very clear; he was here to persuade Saint Emperor Luan Yu not to kill Jinghong Saint King.

All this time, the demon beasts coming here to persuade Saint Emperor Luan Yu were asking him to kill Jinghong Saint King; no one had come to persuade him otherwise.

Of course, the Sacred Emperors who came to persuade him were relatively close to the Guardian God, and Saint Emperor Luan Yu naturally knew what this meant.

He had gone to the Great Saint Emperor several times, hoping to have him intervene. However, the Great Saint Emperor, due to the defeat in the last war, always refused to see him, leaving him somewhat in despair.

Now, unexpectedly, a Sacred Emperor came to advise him not to kill Jinghong Saint King, which was exactly what he wished to hear. How could he not be excited?

However, despite the excitement, he was also aware of the current situation. He did not wish to kill Jinghong Saint King, but how could he get through this situation without doing so?

”Brother Tianxiang, you’re right. Everyone knows the situation. But the problem is, if I don’t execute Jinghong, I’m afraid this matter won’t have a good ending!” sighed Saint Emperor Luan Yu. ”Those Demon Beast Dynasties, I know very well they’re close to the Guardian God. But in the last war with the Guardian God, we were defeated. If internal conflict within the Demon Beast Clan occurs in such circumstances, wouldn’t it worsen the clan’s already dire situation?”

Su Yang smiled faintly, ”Brother Luan Yu, I fully understand your predicament. So, this time I’ve come not to dissuade you from killing Jinghong Saint King. On the contrary, I’m here to advise you to kill him!”

”Huh?” Saint Emperor Luan Yu’s eyes widened suddenly. What does this mean? You’ve said so much, and in the end, you still want me to kill Jinghong Saint King? Then what’s the difference from not saying anything?

This time, Saint Emperor Luan Yu was genuinely angry, feeling that Su Yang was just messing with him.

Su Yang noticed Saint Emperor Luan Yu’s anger and smiled calmly, ”You can proclaim to the Demon Beast Clan that you intend to execute Jinghong Saint King, and at the same time, you can invite the Sacred Emperors of those dynasties to witness the execution with their own eyes.”

”What exactly do you want to do?” Saint Emperor Luan Yu asked in a deep voice, his expression already growing cold, pondering whether to drive Su Yang away.

”You can proclaim to the Demon Beast Clan and also invite those Sacred Emperors to watch the punishment. In this way, you have done what you need to do, and won’t need to worry about them pressuring you anymore!” Su Yang said casually, ”However, if someone were to stage a rescue and save Jinghong Saint King on that day, what would happen then?”

Saint Emperor Luan Yu froze for a moment, staring at Su Yang in disbelief, ”What... what do you mean?”

Su Yang took a deep breath and said softly, ”At first, I planned to directly rescue Jinghong Saint King from the Heavenly Prison, but then I realized doing so would put all the responsibility on the Luan Yu Dynasty. At that time, they would hold you accountable for lax supervision, and Brother Luan Yu would be in real trouble!”

Saint Emperor Luan Yu’s eyes widened as he looked at Su Yang, speaking solemnly, ”Do you... do you realize rescuing Jinghong Saint King may cause you significant trouble?”

”I know!” Su Yang said with a faint smile, ”So, I’ve arranged everything. After rescuing Jinghong Saint King, I will hide him away until this period passes before coming out again!”

”I’m not talking about those things!” Saint Emperor Luan Yu said seriously, ”By doing this, the demon beasts that sided with the Guardian God will magnify the issue. Not only will the Guardian God hunt you down, but even the Demon Beast Clan will have to target you, including those around you!”

”I know all of this!” Su Yang said leisurely, ”Since I decided to save Jinghong Saint King, I’ve already prepared for everything. Rest assured, I am currently unburdened and need not worry about these matters!”

Saint Emperor Luan Yu stared at Su Yang for a long time, the expression on his face shifting from shock to gratitude. He slowly bent over and cupped his hands, ”Thank you, Brother Tianxiang!”

Saint Emperor Luan Yu was truly grateful. It must be known that Su Yang currently holds the status of Heavenly Phenomenon Saint Emperor. Such a status allows for the establishment of a dynasty within the Demon Beast Clan. However, once Su Yang rescues Jinghong Saint King, he will lose everything. Making such a decision is not something just anyone can do!

To make such a sacrifice to save Jinghong Saint King, how could Saint Emperor Luan Yu not be moved?

”No need for formality!” Su Yang said, ”Jinghong Saint King has been kind to me; saving him is my duty. However, remember my words: announce to the Demon Beast Clan your intention to execute Jinghong Saint King. Also, have those Sacred Emperors come to witness the execution. In this way, you would have done everything necessary, and when I rescue Jinghong Saint King before their eyes, it wouldn’t be a lapse on your part for not guarding him well; they themselves failed to stop me, so they can’t trouble you!”

Saint Emperor Luan Yu felt an overwhelming sense of gratitude, unable to deny that Su Yang had thoroughly considered everything for him, taking into account all future matters.

In fact, Saint Emperor Luan Yu was unaware that Su Yang’s actions were driven by his intent to use Jinghong Saint King as a breakthrough point, aiming to initiate an alliance between the Human Clan and the Demon Beast Clan through the Luan Yu Dynasty. Hence, Su Yang was determined to protect the Luan Yu Dynasty. Otherwise, he could have simply rescued Jinghong Saint King without wasting time like this!

”Brother Tianxiang, you don’t have to go to such trouble!” Saint Emperor Luan Yu said, ”I’m not intimidated by those Sacred Emperors; you can take Jinghong Saint King away now. I’ll handle the rest, and you needn’t worry about what comes after. Even if the Sacred Emperors come to me, what can they do? Jinghong Saint King will no longer be here; would I be afraid of them?”
