Chapter 970: Sneak Attack Rises!
Ran Yan’s anger surged as he heard Su Yi’s words.
The arrogance of this kid enraged Ran Yan so much that he felt compelled to teach him a lesson.
With a loud roar, Ran Yan leapt into the air and charged directly at Su Yi!
At the same time, a glowing spiritual sword appeared in his hand, and he swung it down with tremendous force, aiming straight for Su Yi’s head.
The sword emitted an overwhelming force, accompanied by a sharp, ear-piercing sound, as if it were tearing apart the very heavens and earth!
Suddenly, countless sword shadows filled the void, soaring like stars and flashing in all directions, creating a blinding spectacle.
The sword flashes were as sharp as blades, all aiming at Su Yi!
“The strength of this Young Sect Leader Ran is astonishing! His Starry Sword Technique has been perfected to an unimaginable level!”
From the distance, someone marveled at Ran Yan’s strength.
Indeed, Young Sect Leader Ran was incredibly talented, far beyond the reach of ordinary cultivators.
Many people felt sympathy for Su Yi, while others were disgusted by the Seven Star Sword Sect’s dominance. They couldn’t help but worry for the young boy, unsure how he could survive such an attack.
But in the next instant, something completely unexpected occurred!
Su Yi stood motionless in front of Ran Yan. The furious sword light surged toward him, but he remained as still as a rock!
At the same time, though he appeared to move slowly, his arm shot out, weaving through the violent sword light, almost casually picking off the strikes as if plucking leaves from a tree.
With a final burst of Qi, Su Yi’s palm shot forward, forming a handprint that landed squarely on Ran Yan’s chest with a resounding boom.
“Pfft…”
With the strike, all the sword shadows vanished as swiftly as they had appeared.
Ran Yan groaned deeply, his body flying backward, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood that scattered through the air.
One strike.
The young leader of the Seven Star Sword Sect, a formidable talent in the eighth grade of the Yuan True Realm, was struck down by a single move, unable to mount any resistance.
In contrast, the young boy stood untouched, his clothes not even ruffled.
The sight was shocking enough to change many people’s views completely.
A teenager, barely fifteen or sixteen years old, had displayed such incredible strength!
“Young Sect Leader!”
The disciples of the Seven Star Sword Sect were frozen, watching their leader being sent flying by a single strike.
“This kid is unbelievably powerful. Not even Young Sect Leader Ran could stand against him!”
“Such strength—he must be at the Yuan Void Realm!”
The surrounding people whispered in surprise, stunned by the turn of events.
“Impressive, truly impressive!”
Among the Seven Star Sword Sect’s ranks, the middle-aged man, Dharma Protector Lu, trembled as he observed Su Yi.
With his cultivation, it wasn’t hard for him to sense the young man’s power—far surpassing Ran Yan’s and already at the Yuan Void Realm.
In comparison, their Young Sect Leader seemed like an amateur, struggling before Su Yi’s overwhelming strength.
Dharma Protector Lu’s thoughts grew more cautious. Su Yi’s background might be significant, and it would be wise not to provoke a young disciple from such a powerful force.
With that in mind, after Ran Yan was knocked back, Lu chose not to act against Su Yi.
“Puff…”
Struggling to rise after Su Yi’s strike, Ran Yan spat another mouthful of blood, his face even more drained.
The surrounding Seven Star Sword Sect disciples, too, were afraid to make a move against Su Yi, eyeing him warily.
“Hmph!”
With a cold snort, Su Yi took a step forward, preparing to leave.
Though emboldened, he had no intention of wasting time on unnecessary confrontations with such a powerful faction.
He wasn’t afraid of conflict but simply didn’t want to be burdened by it.
“Hmm…”
As Su Yi walked past Ran Yan, the latter felt a sharp pain in his throat and was about to cough up more blood, his expression grim.
The surrounding onlookers whispered and pointed at him, further intensifying his humiliation.
“Such a young powerhouse in the Yuan Void Realm! His background must be extraordinary!”
“Ran Yan really messed up this time. He angered the wrong person!”
“The Seven Star Sword Sect is already known for its arrogance. Hopefully, they’ve learned a lesson today. Sword Star City will be a bit more peaceful.”
“It’s clear who holds the power here. Look how the young man simply walks past, and no one dares to stop him.”
“Maybe they’re avoiding conflict with a stronger force behind him. Who knows?”
Many took pleasure in seeing Ran Yan humbled, while others were in awe of Su Yi’s strength.
Every word stung Ran Yan, turning his already pale face a deep shade of anger.
Watching Su Yi walk away, Ran Yan’s expression turned furious. He silently signaled to the oak tree beside him.
“Roar!”
A thunderous roar shook the city as the mighty figure of the Aoka Split Heavenly Tiger appeared, hovering in the air.
Its massive claws radiated a blinding light, the force of its roar enough to make the ground tremble.
A powerful, destructive aura filled the air as the Aoka Split Heavenly Tiger lunged toward Su Yi’s head!
This sudden assault caught everyone off guard!
No one had expected the Aoka Split Heavenly Tiger to attack the boy in this moment!
“Watch out!”
Someone screamed, warning Su Yi of the impending danger, hoping to prevent him from falling prey to the tiger’s claws.
Unlike Ran Yan, the Aoka Split Heavenly Tiger was the mount of the Seven Star Sword Sect’s leader, Ran Jianxuan. As a third-grade beast in the Demonic Void Realm, it was much stronger than Ran Yan!
Its surprise attack was so powerful that even an expert in the Yuan Void Realm could suffer grievous harm, let alone a young boy like Su Yi.
“Swish!”
In the blink of an eye, the sharp claws of the tiger struck directly at Su Yi!
A tremendous force erupted, seemingly tearing the boy to pieces!
“Oh no, looks like he couldn’t escape the Seven Star Sword Sect’s grasp!”
The crowd murmured, lamenting the boy’s fate as he had clearly crossed the wrong people.
“Wait!”
A voice interrupted the crowd, eyes widening in realization. “The Aoka Split Heavenly Tiger attacked an afterimage! The boy isn’t dead!”
