Chapter 604: He Might Still Be Alive.
If not for that, Su Yi knew he would be in grave danger today. In this desolate wilderness, killing for treasures was all too common.
But borrowing that immense power, Su Yi was also not in a good state.
Although Ling Qianxue had not yet fully recovered her peak state, a thin camel was still bigger than a horse. The power surged, flowing and circulating within her meridians, almost bursting and tearing Su Yi's body apart.
Fortunately, Su Yi's physical body was extremely tough. Although he endured a lot of pain and suffered backlash injuries, he managed to endure and wasn't critically injured. However, the impact was not insignificant, but at least he managed to deal with the mysterious intruder.
"You've got some nerve, humans are indeed cunning!"
Ling Qianxue's voice resonated in Su Yi's ears, and at this moment, she was also astonished. This young man really had some nerve, borrowing such immense external power. If he wasn't careful, he might not settle the opponent and end up in trouble himself.
In Ling Qianxue's heart, what shocked her the most at this moment was Su Yi's physical body.
She was well aware of how much power Su Yi had just borrowed. Although he was only at the Eigth Grade of Yuan Spirit Realm, his physical body was so formidable, perhaps even surpassing the bodies of those top-notch young demons in the demon race.
Having borrowed a corporeal rebirth and recently awakened, Ling Qianxue could sense even more the extraordinary aspect of Su Yi's being.
This young man was too mysterious, making it difficult for her to completely understand when merging with him.
Especially after Su Yi was critically injured, she felt that the mysterious red light came from Su Yi's mind. She wanted to explore its origin, but she discovered an immense and boundless power in Su Yi's mind, which directly blocked her, exuding a terrifying pressure that she had never experienced before, rendering her unable to probe.
"That's right, that old guy was so cunning, actually trying to kill and snatch treasures!"
Su Yi spoke softly, filled with resentment. He had just narrowly escaped a calamity. He didn't know who that old guy was, but he was extremely cunning. He had trailed him for so long and had been extremely cautious. If it weren't for Ling Qianxue's awakening, the outcome might have been much worse for him.
"Aren't you even more cunning than that person? Humans are all despicable creatures..."
Ling Qianxue was speechless. It was clearly this young man who was cunning, yet he still had the face to accuse others of being cunning. It was obvious that his cunning and treachery surpassed that of the previous person.
"I was just protecting myself."
Uncertain whether the old man was dead or alive, Su Yi didn't dare to linger. He healed on the back of the Wolf-headed Demon Bat, eager to return to Man City as soon as possible.
Night falls, at the Divine Sword School.
"Are you saying that a young boy around your age has inflicted such injuries upon all of you?"
In a side hall, numerous figures at this moment gaze at the four young men being carried back, their expressions extremely grim.
The four young men, all appearing to be around seventeen or eighteen years old, but at this moment, blood was flowing profusely from each of them, the scene utterly miserable.
Each of the four young men has been grievously injured, and it is feared that after their wounds heal, their future potential and accomplishments will be greatly affected.
"A young boy, so terrifying, we are absolutely no match for him!"
The least injured among the four young men spoke, with lingering fear and shocked eyes. That young boy was too terrifying; even when the three of them joined forces, they couldn't withstand a single blow.
Hearing this, the elderly leader of Sacred Mountain pondered. He was well aware of the cultivation level of these four young men; they were undoubtedly among the top in the entire Central Region, possessing exceptional talent and aptitude.
If what these four said is true, and that young boy of average size was able to inflict such injuries upon all four of them, then his strength must have reached an unimaginable level. He is definitely not an ordinary person.
"Elder, could it be someone from the Divine Sword School?"
In the crowd, Wang Quande's face twitched slightly, and he glanced at the four young men lying down, feeling a hint of regret in his heart.
These four individuals had limitless potential, but after this serious injury, their future prospects may be limited.
"The Divine Sword School wouldn't stoop to this, although they deliberately conceal the abilities of their disciples ranked high in the Sword Tower, in order to not reveal too much before the Saint Martial Assembly, but they wouldn't dare to target our disciples from Sacred Mountain either."
The elderly leader's gaze flickered with a gleam as he heard this, and he said, "Notify the people from the Divine Sword School; they must give us an explanation!"
"Elder, didn't you say it wasn't the doing of the Divine Sword School? Why do this now?" A middle-aged man asked in a puzzled tone, speaking softly.
"Although Situ Liuyun is not very old, he is an extraordinary individual. This time, when we came, they didn't hold back at all. Moreover, Forging Sword City is also considered the territory of the Divine Sword School. Our disciples from Sacred Mountain being seriously injured can be seen as an opportunity."
The elderly leader spoke, seemingly with a deeper meaning, his gaze flickering with hidden implications.
With the moon shining dimly, on Sky Sword Peak.
In the study, Situ Liuyun stood with his hands behind his back, pacing back and forth.
"Based on the information we received, that young boy is sixteen or seventeen years old, carrying a tattered sword, and possesses extraordinary strength..."
Right Dharma Protector spoke, his gaze flickering, seemingly deep in thought. He looked at Situ Liuyun, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I carefully inquired, and that young boy does indeed resemble..."
Right Dharma Protector hesitated, from the received information, that young boy had too much resemblance to someone.
"The strength of those few young men is not bad, and very few people can inflict such heavy injuries upon them. If the received information is correct, perhaps it really is that Su Yi without a doubt..."
"Sect leader, didn't Su Yi die? Divine Sword Valley has already collapsed, and the experts in the sect have examined it and found no way to reopen it. Even if Su Yi is still alive, how could he possibly come out? However, based on the information we received, that young man resembles Su Yi too much, and only he has that kind of strength..."
Right Dharma Protector's face changed dramatically. He was well aware of the situation in Divine Sword Valley, but based on the information they received, that young man really resembled Su Yi too much.
Situ Liuyun remained silent, his gaze slightly narrowed, with a somber expression.
"Sect leader, if it really is that young man Su Yi, and he hasn't suffered any harm, why didn't he return to the Divine Sword School? Instead, he appeared in Forging Sword City?" Right Dharma Protector questioned.
"Sigh...," Situ Liuyun sighed, a bitter smile tugging at the corner of his mouth, as he said to Right Dharma Protector, "Ninety percent chance it's him."
"How can the sect leader be so sure?" Right Dharma Protector was somewhat surprised. Although he also had some belief that it could be that young man Su Yi, Situ Liuyun being ninety percent certain still caught him off guard.
"He appeared in Forging Sword City because he wanted to leave. Perhaps, he doesn't want to return to the Divine Sword School anymore..." Situ Liuyun spoke, wearing a bitter smile on his face.
"Why?" Right Dharma Protector asked.
"If my guess is correct, he learned about Yun Lingfeng's punishment..." Situ Liuyun said.
