Supreme Warrior in the City

Su Yang didn’t sense anything particularly special from the Jade Talisman itself, but the aura on it was truly strange.

Where exactly had he felt this aura before?

After pondering carefully for a while, Su Yang suddenly jolted in his heart. Because he remembered something very important—the Jade Pendant his mother had left behind!

The aura on this Jade Talisman was actually identical to the aura on the Jade Pendant!

Su Yang was greatly shocked in his heart. Could it be that the Kunpeng Great Saint Emperor’s mysterious disappearance, along with those three hundred Saint Emperor Guards, was also related to his mother? But the problem was, the Kunpeng Great Saint Emperor was ranked second in this Great World, and even compared with the first, they were almost on par.

What’s more, there were also the three hundred Saint Emperor Guards, each of them an existence with heaven‑defying strength.

With such overwhelming power, could his mother alone really defeat them?

If she really could defeat them, then just how heaven‑defying was his mother’s strength supposed to be? With such heaven‑defying strength, why would she still need to enter the Land of Chaos? Relying on her alone, she might very well be able to overturn heaven and earth, reverse the tide, and defeat the Guardian God of this Great World!

So Su Yang vaguely felt in his heart that there had to be something wrong here.

The Kunpeng Great Saint Emperor and the three hundred Saint Emperor Guards’ bizarre disappearance was definitely related to his mother, but it wasn’t necessarily that his mother had abducted them. There was certainly some hidden story in this, and only by investigating could it become clear!

The other Great Saint Emperors saw Su Yang staring at the Jade Pendant without speaking, and they all felt unsteady inside, not knowing whether Su Yang had discovered anything or not.

”Su Alliance Leader, you… did you discover anything?” the Carefree Great Saint Emperor couldn’t help but ask.

Su Yang had of course discovered something, but he didn’t dare say it outright. If these Demon Beasts learned that the Kunpeng Great Saint Emperor’s disappearance was related to his mother, these Demon Beasts might turn on him on the spot.

So, in the end, Su Yang could only furrow his brows and say in a deep voice, ”There’s nothing special about the Jade Talisman itself—the key is the aura on it. According to what you’ve said, this Jade Talisman is already tens of thousands of years old. The power on it should have long since dissipated, yet the aura still remains. That shows this aura is the real clue!”

The Great Saint Emperors all nodded in succession. One Great Saint Emperor said, ”We thought the same, so all these years, we’ve been investigating the source of this aura. But after so many years, we’ve never found any trace of such an aura. Sigh, trying to investigate this matter is really not easy!”

”No matter what, with the Kunpeng Great Saint Emperor’s strength, plus the three hundred Saint Emperor Guards, it’s not so easy for others to kill them!” Su Yang said. ”They must be somewhere, maybe dealing with something important.”

The other Great Saint Emperors couldn’t hide the disappointment on their faces. They had taken out this Jade Talisman with the mentality of giving it a shot. They had originally thought Su Yang’s side might discover something, but in the end they were still disappointed.

However, what Su Yang was thinking about in his heart was something else entirely.

According to what these Great Saint Emperors said, the Kunpeng Great Saint Emperor had mysteriously disappeared tens of thousands of years ago. And this matter was actually entangled with his mother—did that mean his mother had left that world tens of thousands of years ago?

If that was really the case, then just how long had his mother been roaming this Great World, and how many things had she done?

All these secrets, his mother was probably very clear about; as long as he could find her, he could uncover all the secrets. But how could finding her be an easy matter?

The group had been stationed here for less than three months when the Guardian God’s army had already slaughtered its way to this place.

This time, the Guardian God didn’t just send the previous batch, but also dispatched another batch from the Guardian Land. With the two forces combined, their strength far surpassed Su Yang’s side. So, with no other choice, Su Yang and the others could only flee once again, not daring to continue clashing head‑on with the Guardian God.

They ran for a full half year before finally shaking off those Guardian God forces completely, but Su Yang’s side had lost quite a few more people.

Moreover, after this incident, morale became even more scattered.

Things were still alright on the Human Clan’s side, but among the Demon Beast Clan, Demon Beast Saint Emperors had already begun sneaking away.

Faced with this situation, those Great Saint Emperors were powerless despite their intentions. After all, in this battle, no one could see any hope. If they kept letting these Saint Emperors clash head‑on with the Guardian God, that would be sending them to their deaths ahead of time. At a time like this, everyone had their own selfishness; everyone wanted to live a little longer!

Even though they all clearly knew what the outcome would be—if they didn’t resist, none of them would survive in the end. But the problem was, if they resisted, they would die now; if they fled, they could still live for a while longer. Under such circumstances, how were they supposed to choose?

In fact, not only those Demon Beast Saint Emperors, even some of the Great Saint Emperors had started harboring thoughts of retreat.

After all, in a situation like this, they really couldn’t see any hope!

Su Yang himself felt extremely stifled. He had truly and severely misjudged the Guardian God’s strength. The Guardian God’s side was far stronger than he had imagined. Or rather, the Demon Beast Clan had bragged too much before, constantly shouting about having the power to go head‑to‑head with the Guardian God. But now, the moment the fighting started, they showed their true colors. The Demon Beast Clan’s strength was in fact far inferior to the Guardian God’s.

If things kept going like this, being wiped out was only a matter of time, so Su Yang had to come up with a way to resolve the predicament in front of him.

Su Yang actually already had a plan in mind—to enter the Land of Chaos. That way, they could escape the Guardian God’s pursuit. But if they did that, wouldn’t they be handing this Great World directly into the hands of this batch of Guardian God forces? Weren’t those Human Clans and Demon Beast Clans from other Great Worlds forced into the Land of Chaos precisely because they couldn’t beat the Guardian God?

So, although he had this plan, for Su Yang, the Land of Chaos was only his last resort. Unless absolutely necessary, he would not enter the Land of Chaos.

After being pursued this time, Su Yang and the others had become much more cautious. They spent most of their time moving about within this Great World, no longer staying too long in any one place.

It was also thanks to Su Yang’s foresight that he had previously collected a lot of Dark Level Spiritual Liquid from the World Melting Furnace, which could supply the army’s needs. Otherwise, without Spiritual Source, they would likely have scattered long ago.

For an army of Saint Emperors like this, Spiritual Source was the most crucial thing, just like military provisions. Only with Spiritual Source could they recover their power and mend their injuries. It was just like the great wars of ancient times—before the three armies moved, the provisions had to be in place. It was the same principle!
