Chapter 770: Fierce and Merciless!
“From what I can see, we should part ways here,” Su Yi turned and said to Xu Chen. “Sacred Mountain is formidable; it’s best if you avoid any trouble.”
“Sacred Mountain may be powerful, but since I haven’t provoked them, they shouldn’t seek conflict with me, so we can remain together,” Xu Chen replied with a smile, showing no intention of departing.
Su Yi remained silent, his eyes narrowing as he observed the few people still writhing in agony on the ground. A flash of coldness flickered in his gaze.
“What do you intend to do?” Xu Chen inquired with curiosity, watching Su Yi.
“They wish to find me, so let them.”
Su Yi’s lips curved upward with a hint of frost. Even before entering the Sanctified Martial Secret Realm, Xi Wuqing had cautioned him about Sacred Mountain’s potential actions. At that moment, Su Yi had already resolved himself. If Sacred Mountain truly intended to pursue him, he wouldn’t hesitate to make them pay the price. He had already employed a disguise technique, yet Sacred Mountain still targeted him. This would settle both recent and old grievances.
This was the Sanctified Martial Secret Realm, where even the powerful were said to be unable to monitor the entrances. Su Yi had little cause for concern.
“Do you require my assistance? If so, we can discuss terms. However, regarding the Star Cloud Ganoderma…”
Xu Chen chuckled awkwardly, his gaze wandering.
“Not discussing, not selling,”
Su Yi declined firmly. Within the Sanctified Martial Secret Realm, numerous people indeed crowded around Sacred Mountain.
At nightfall, stars sparkled across the darkness above. In the depths of the ancient forest, evening dew gently permeated the air.
From the desperate cries of those few young men, Su Yi learned the method of locating and encountering Sacred Mountain’s disciples.
These individuals, hearts gripped by terror, revealed to Su Yi that upon entering the Sanctified Martial Secret Realm, they had received orders from Sacred Mountain’s disciples to search for Yi Su from the Overlord Sect. Any information was to be reported to Sacred Mountain’s disciples immediately.
Within this Sanctified Martial Secret Realm, it proved impossible for everyone to remain together. However, Sacred Mountain’s disciples possessed means to maintain communication with each other.
“Is that so?”
Su Yi felt somewhat dissatisfied, as it seemed he would need to rely on chance to encounter Sacred Mountain’s disciples. Yet, it appeared that finding one disciple would lead him to others.
“What shall become of these people?”
Xu Chen asked Su Yi, “In this Sanctified Martial Secret Realm, if these individuals are disabled, they face greater peril than fortune remaining here.”
Su Yi gazed at these individuals, his eyes radiating an icy light.
As Su Yi’s gaze met theirs, the young men’s pupils quivered with fear. Their faces paled, eyes filled with despair. His penetrating stare left them inexplicably chilled, sending tremors through their bodies.
By now, they finally understood that Sacred Mountain should not have been crossed. They had initially anticipated rewards, but instead encountered their doom.
Sacred Mountain’s disciples sought someone of this caliber, and they hadn’t realized the gravity of their situation. Understanding came too late.
“You chose to approach me for Sacred Mountain, and for that, payment is due!”
Su Yi made his decision, murderous intent gleaming in his eyes.
Leaving these few people alive wasn’t prudent. Su Yi already had sufficient enemies. He saw no need to invite additional complications.
Time passed, and screams pierced the night sky.
Su Yi acted swiftly, and several young people met their end. Their space bags were efficiently collected into Su Yi’s possession.
Xu Chen maintained his composure, observing Su Yi’s actions with a smile, though his gaze concealed deeper thoughts.
…
Under moonlight, silver rays filtered through the ancient forest’s canopy, casting dappled light among the towering mountains.
“Boom!”
After half an hour, an explosion shattered rocks nearby, causing massive trees to splinter, leaving two young people bloodied and fading.
“Tiangang Sect!”
Su Yi noted this mountain gate. These two were Tiangang Sect members, also searching for him. Their connection to Sacred Mountain appeared substantial.
“Swoosh…”
In the distance, rushing wind echoed, drawing attention. Someone hurried toward the scene.
Approaching the Sanctified Martial Secret Realm’s center, even the swiftest arrivals were younger practitioners with abilities surpassing their peers.
Such individuals weren’t numerous, yet as the central area grew more concentrated, encounters became increasingly likely.
Su Yi couldn’t identify the approaching person but preferred to remain concealed.
After eliminating the Tiangang Sect disciples, Su Yi wished to avoid unnecessary attention.
Though Su Yi had marked the Tiangang Sect in his mind, the moment wasn’t right for revelation.
“The Tiangang Sect disciples were formidable. Someone executed a devastating attack!”
Soon, several individuals arrived, all exhibiting extraordinary presence and powerful auras. They examined the bodies and determined this wasn’t the Realm’s doing but deliberate killing. They recognized the victims’ identities.
The Tiangang Sect’s finest young disciples had fallen to single strikes, indicating their assailant’s terrifying capability.
“Exercise caution.”
These people departed, maintaining vigilance.
After their departure, two figures descended silently from a towering tree nearby – Su Yi and Xu Chen.
Shortly after, another victim appeared in the ancient forest. Three young individuals lay together, blood-soaked.
“Xuanyuan Sect!”
Su Yi collected several space bags, marking another mountain gate. This sect showed unwavering loyalty to Sacred Mountain.
Locating these individuals proved simple. Su Yi’s mere presence would trigger telling reactions in certain eyes.
As the bright moon descended westward and dawn’s grayish light emerged in the east.
Within the ancient mountains and dense forest, terrified screams echoed.
Over two hours, Su Yi struck multiple times, committing the names Xuanyuan Sect, Tiangang Sect, and Tianyang Sect to memory.
Su Yi showed no restraint in his actions, believing courtesy unnecessary toward those seeking his harm.
Had his strength proved insufficient against these opponents, he understood the likely outcome.
“Aren’t you concerned I might expose your actions to Xuanyuan Sect, Tiangang Sect, and Tianyang Sect?”
Xu Chen spoke softly, having witnessed Su Yi’s brutal efficiency. He understood these direct actions served to prevent exposure.
These disciples represented their sects’ finest young generation, their future pride. Discovery of Su Yi’s responsibility would drive their powerful sect members to fury and vengeance.
“How might we maintain secrecy?”
Su Yi smiled gently and displayed several space bags. He turned to Xu Chen and offered, “Shall we split them equally?”
Xu Chen’s eyes brightened at this, and he quickly responded, “No need! Just sell me the Star Cloud Ganoderma, that would suffice.”
“Not for sale.”
Su Yi turned away, refusing without hesitation.
“You’re toying with me. Perhaps I should report your actions.”
Xu Chen finally realized he was being played with.
