Supreme Warrior in the City

The crowd was stunned, and the person leading them was silent for a while before saying in a low voice, ”Please forgive my ignorance, I do not quite understand the meaning of the princess!”

”You truly are dull!” Qi’er said discontentedly, ”Look at my Brother Su, what’s happening with him!”

The crowd turned to look at Su Yang, all a bit at a loss.

”Brother Su, open your Chaos Gourd.” Qi’er said.

”Oh.” Su Yang nodded. Though unsure of what to do, he opened the Chaos Gourd.

As soon as the Chaos Gourd was opened, the Taoist Venerable and those around him froze, as if witnessing something astonishing.

Su Yang still didn’t know what was happening, but seeing the expressions on the Taoist Venerable’s people, he realized there must be something inside the Chaos Gourd that intrigued them.

”It’s the aura of the Taoist Venerable!”

”It truly is the Taoist Venerable’s aura, after so many years, it shows itself again!”

”Did the Taoist Venerable leave something inside this Chaos Gourd?”

The people surrounding the Taoist Venerable whispered, clearly very excited.

The leader of the Taoist Venerable’s group was full of excitement, respectfully saying, ”Su Alliance Leader, could you let... let me go inside and take a look?”

There wasn’t anything particularly special inside the Chaos Gourd, so Su Yang nodded.

The person flew into the Chaos Gourd and shortly after flew out, with an even more excited expression on his face.

”Su Alliance Leader, bold to ask. How did you come by those three Jade Pendants inside?” The man asked excitedly.

”Three Jade Pendants?” Su Yang was puzzled but soon remembered that indeed there were three Jade Pendants inside the Gourd. Each of these pendants was obtained by Su Yang from a planet guarded by Qing Guang, left by his mother, and left by Dao Ji.

Might it be these Jade Pendants that are causing their excitement?

Su Yang took out the three Jade Pendants, saying: ”Are these the ones you’re talking about?”

Upon seeing the Jade Pendants, the people surrounding the Taoist Venerable were even more excited, with some even kneeling to the ground.

The leader respectfully nodded, saying: ”Yes, that’s right, these three!”

”Oh, one of these Jade Pendants I got from a planet, while the other two were left by my mother and my mother’s bodyguard.” Su Yang answered truthfully.

The crowd was shocked, and the leader quickly asked: ”Where is this planet?”

”You don’t need to go to that planet.” Qi’er answered directly: ”There are other things there, which you temporarily can’t go to. However, these three Jade Pendants already represent Uncle Taoist Venerable’s will. Inside, there’s power left by Uncle Taoist Venerable—if Uncle Taoist Venerable hadn’t chosen Brother Su, would these pendants remain with him?”

The people surrounding the Taoist Venerable nodded immediately; this was undoubtedly correct. The Taoist Venerable’s Jade Pendants aren’t something just anyone can possess, and having them with Su Yang already signifies the Taoist Venerable’s approval of him.

The crowd exchanged glances and collectively knelt before Su Yang, and everyone on the Taoist Venerable’s side submitted as well.

Thus, the three Ancient groups were completely subdued.

Seeing this circumstance, those from the Ancient times also lowered their heads. Even if some were dissatisfied, what could they do against the prevailing trend?

For the Ancient Heavenly Warriors, the identity of the Daughter of the Human Emperor was insignificant. However, Qi’er being the Master of Yuling Palace was a status that made all the Ancient people submit.

”Is there anyone who refuses now?” Qi’er proclaimed aloud.

No one spoke, even the Immortal Venerable was now complying. With the Master of Yuling Palace personally supporting Su Yang, who dared to resist?

”In that case, it is settled. From now on, all members of the Human Clan, whether from the Ancient or the Ancient, must heed Brother Su’s commands!” Qi’er declared loudly.

Su Yang hastily replied: ”Qi’er, since you’ve stepped forward, you should lead the Human Clan!”

”I can’t!” Qi’er immediately shook her head: ”I’m not suited for such endeavors; I’m different from my old man. Besides, I haven’t finished my tasks; I must return to continue my secluded cultivation!”

”You still need to seclude yourself?” Su Yang exclaimed in surprise; what could be happening on Qi’er’s end?

”Brother Su, go ahead and act boldly; I’m confident you’ll do very well!” Qi’er smiled and said, ”The First God and others are almost returning, and if it’s really untenable in the Nine Realms, you can return the half Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet to them. However, don’t let them obtain the full Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet!”

”Huh?” Su Yang was stunned; why would he go through so much trouble to bring the half Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet, only to return it?

”Of course, if you manage to hold on for a thousand years before returning the half Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet, that would be the best outcome!” Qi’er said, ”If we can guard the half Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet for a thousand years, our chances of victory increase by at least twenty percent!”

”Why?” Su Yang asked curiously.

Qi’er smiled and replied: ”I cannot say regarding this matter; among the Ancient Seven Heavenly Venerables, one Heavenly Venerable remains unfound. If this person learns of our plan, some issues could become troublesome!”

Su Yang looked perplexed; if a matter can’t be disclosed, then why mention the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet at all?

As if seeing through Su Yang’s confusion, Qi’er smiled: ”Matters regarding the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet are not significant and won’t affect the larger scheme. Furthermore, this Heavenly Venerable is hiding and won’t expose himself for trivial matters. He is watching us, and are we not also looking for him? He will surely appear at critical moments, not for unimportant news.”

Having explained these things, Qi’er didn’t linger further and left swiftly. Her visit was indeed brief, but the matters were handled effectively. At least now, everyone was compliant with Su Yang’s leadership.

Watching Qi’er leave, the crowd exchanged glances, finally focusing on Su Yang.

This scenario left Su Yang somewhat perplexed; he had been pondering how to control this situation. Unexpectedly, after Qi’er appeared, she quickly resolved the matter.

However, upon careful reflection, managing such affairs was truly challenging.

Qi’er, though assertive, was only the strongest from the Ancient, capable of subduing only the Ancient individuals. Yet truly the Ancient group wouldn’t submit due to Qi’er’s strength alone.

The real difficulty was getting the three Ancient groups to submit, given their unwavering respect for the Three Ancient Strong People. Qi’er solved this issue by representing the will of the Three Great Ancient, allowing Su Yang to become the leader of the Human Clan.
