The God of Sky & Earth
Chapter 1604
Su Yi’s words caused the atmosphere in the room to suddenly become tense. Everyone felt uneasy. In such an awkward atmosphere, it seemed like the air had stopped moving.
"Su Yi totally didn’t give Elder Tong any face!"
"Yeah, Elder Tong gave him a way out, but he ruined it himself. He’s too domineering!"
"Even if he has extraordinary strength, not showing any face like this won’t be beneficial for him in the future at Yutian Palace!"
Above Elder Tong’s sharp and old face, a barely perceptible killing intent emerged. His mouth twitched as he quietly said, "Since Sect Leader Su doesn’t appreciate the collection of Yutian Palace, let’s wait and see Sect Leader Su’s outstanding performance in Yutian Soul Race!"
Su Yi didn’t respond. The aura of the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique suddenly surged around him. Looking around, an unparalleled pressure descended like a wave, causing the onlookers to involuntarily gasp in astonishment.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Su Yi, with Han Yurou in his arms, stepped on the flowing light and traced a long arc in the sky, breaking through the air and leaving.
In the empty space, Han Yurou narrowed her eyes, her eyebrows furrowed tightly. She spat lightly, saying, "How annoying! Elder Tong is clearly on Zuo Qiufeng’s side, he’s not pleading for you, he’s clearly pressuring you! It sounds so nice, putting on a righteous front!"
"But this old guy is indeed powerful. Revenge is a dish best served cold! Today’s Jin Qianyun is just a pawn, behind him are Jun Haotian and Zuo Qiufeng. Otherwise, no one would have the power to shut down all the treasure halls!"
"So what should we do? Without a cauldron and high-quality herbs, it will be difficult for Yutian Soul Race!" Han Yurou said softly.
Su Yi pondered in the air and turned to look at Zhongzhen Great Peak. There was a serious expression on his face as he said, "Let’s go back and discuss with Senior Gu Yue!"
After everyone left, within a hall of the front peak of Zhongzhen Peak.
A slender figure stood with hands behind, looking at Jin Qianyun groaning on the ground. Angrily, he said, "Overestimating your abilities. Even master couldn’t withstand him, yet you insisted on trying!"
Standing beside Jin Qianyun, Elder Tong came to his rescue and said respectfully, "Young Master Jun, Su Yi is indeed extremely talented. He was able to defeat Qianyun, a much higher-ranked opponent. The old man didn’t expect this at all, otherwise Young Master Jun would be seeing Su Yi’s dead body today. If Young Master Jun encounters him in the future, please be cautious!"
Jun Haotian, who is a few years older than Jin Qianyun and in his early thirties, has recently reached the mid-level of the fourth rank in cultivation. His control over spirits has become the benchmark among the younger generation in Yutian Palace, with no one able to surpass him.
Having held the position of Palace Master for many years, Zuo Qiufeng has been in seclusion for cultivation. Everyone already regards him as the Palace Master, and it is only right for Jun Haotian to be the Deputy Palace Master.
If Jun Haotian can win the Yutian Soul Race this time, it will directly establish his and his master’s position in Yutian Palace after years of maneuvering and planning.
Among the top eighteen participants, the Commander and Faculty Elder have already switched sides to join Jun Haotian. Among the top ten Princely Elders, with Gu Yue at the center, a few peripheral Elders have had a change of heart. However, everything will depend on the results of the Yutian Soul Race.
With his eyebrows furrowed, Jun Haotian thought to himself with a cold expression, "Master has already promised not to trouble Su Yi before the competition! It’s better not to have any ideas about him!"
Elder Tong smiled slightly and approached Jun Haotian, saying, "Deputy Palace Master, please listen to me! It’s always good to be prepared, just in case!"
So, the three of them gathered in the hall, huddled together closely, discussing their next actions. After a while, Elder Tong and Jin Qianyun had wicked smiles on their faces, while there was a touch of seriousness between Jun Haotian’s brows.
Inside the Lingyue Cottage, a fragrant aroma filled the air.
Everyone gathered again, Tian Chang heard what Su Yi said and immediately cursed angrily, "Lawless! Do they really think the Yutian Palace belongs to their family?"
Li Shiran and Achu also clenched their lips and burned with anger, unable to benefit from the treasures at Yutian Palace, which was greatly disadvantageous to Lingyue Peak.
Elder Gu Yue’s kind face gradually turned serious, and said in a deep voice, "Sect Leader Su did the right thing. Lingyue Peak should not be controlled by others! If they really want to make things difficult for Lingyue Peak, I, Gu Yue, will fight to the death with them!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Yue stroked his beard and pondered, saying, "Although Lingyue Peak also has medicinal herbs and iron tools, they are far inferior to the treasures at Yutian Palace’s Zhongzhen collection. Each member of the Yutian Soul Race wants to offer excellent spiritual medicines and weapons. This is a bit tricky now!"
Su Yi’s heart sank as well. It was going to be difficult now, even if he agreed to use them freely, there would still be various obstacles. He turned to Tian Chang and said.
"Senior Gu Yue, Tian Chang, does Lingyue Peak have any good cauldrons?"
Tian Chang scratched his head and looked at Su Yi, saying with some difficulty, "We do have some, but they are all at the Dao Tool level. And Dao Tools have spirits that recognize their masters. Do you have any good cauldrons, Brother Su?"
Su Yi sighed heavily in his heart. He did have them, but they weren’t with him!
"I don’t have one, but I’m afraid Zuo Qiufeng will use a Sacred Tool cauldron to ensure his team’s victory."
Yutian Palace has been around for thousands of years, the Sacred Tool Dan Ding definitely exists, it must be in the Zhongzhen collection, and Zuo Qiufeng will definitely seize it.
"Xuan Huo Wu Ding!" Senior Gu Yue murmured.
Now that things have come to this point, overcoming difficulties is an opportunity. Gu Yue and Su Yi exchanged a smile. Gu Yue quickly stood up and said to the others.
"Sect Leader Su, you and Miss Han have been practicing diligently at Lingyue Peak these past few days! Don’t be distracted. I will go to the other Princely Elders to see if we can borrow some things!"
Su Yi nodded heavily. This is the most feasible approach at the moment. Compared to the other peaks where people study and practice every day, Lingyue Peak has only recently gained popularity. Its collection is limited. Originally, the Central Region’s accumulation has been handed over to Yutian Palace after Palace Master Yi Huan took over.
After discussing, everyone went to practice diligently on their own. Han Yurou focused on cultivating soul energy, while adjusting and breathing on Lingyue Peak. Tian Chang guided Li Shiran and Achu in the art of pill prescriptions. They are not the main force this time, but they still need to have a general understanding.
Meanwhile, Su Yi began to concentrate and practice the Heavens Taming Incantation in the room. Time passed quickly.
Night fell, and the stars twinkled.
In the depths of the night at Lingyue Peak, there was a misty water vapor and the billowing clouds moved back and forth. Under the quiet night sky, there were flickering candles at Lingyue Peak, burning through the night.
The whole Yutian River was filled with a sense of unity and tension, as the upcoming Yutian Soul Race had become the top priority in everyone’s hearts!
They waited eagerly, prepared for battle.
