Chapter 1554: Heavenly Pride VSSaint Child

"Bang!"

Deeply unsettling words, like a sword of frost, pierced the hearts of Su Yi and Yun Qing, chilling their faces.

"…this." Wang Quande immediately knelt down, bowing his head deeply, and remained silent.

"Disregarding the face of the Sacred Mountain sect, slaughtering the Li family indiscriminately, who gave you the audacity! Ignoring the bonds among fellow disciples, watching City Master Ouyang bravely confront external enemies, who gave you such foolishness!"

With just a few words, like a mighty bell from the heavens, reverberating in everyone’s minds, Yun Qing and Su Yi were further bewildered by Xue Honglou’s words.

Su Yi and Yun Qing looked serious. This Fifth Saint Child didn’t directly challenge them, but rather gave a direct admonishment to Wang Quande. Are they collaborating?

Wang Quande’s aura diminished greatly under the overwhelming presence of Xue Honglou. His legs trembled uncontrollably as he knocked his head repeatedly, seemingly in earnest.

"Saint Child, I… I was only carrying out the orders of the Holy Lord! The Holy Lord wanted…" Wang Quande trembled with fear. This was the first time he had seen Xue Honglou so enraged. Despite being regarded as an elder, in terms of achievements, cultivation, and standing, he was just a errand-runner in the Sacred Mountain.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, a powerful and majestic aura, like an ancient force that dominated the world, surged out from Xue Honglou’s forehead. A streak of golden light, as fast as lightning, cut off Wang Quande’s arm.

"Ah!"

Immediately, a horrifying scream came from outside the Li ancestral temple. Li Ling and everyone present were horrified. They saw Wang Quande’s severed arm rolling down continuously, kicked away by Li Ling, flying far away!

Wang Quande’s face turned pale, his eyes filled with horror and astonishment. He covered his bleeding arm and his gaze gradually grew colder. He gasped for breath and shouted,

"Xue Honglou, how dare you touch me!"

Xue Honglou’s eyes were filled with a chilling intent, like sharp knives. His gaze, shining coldly, directly aimed at Wang Quande. The overwhelming pressure of his powerful soul rendered Wang Quande motionless on the ground, unable to move.

"I am one of the Nine Saint Children. You, who disregard the brotherhood among us, will die! Through the vast waves of sound, like a mysterious power crossing through time and space, from ancient times to present, Xue Honglou’s unwavering voice sounded as if the Holy Lord himself had descended upon the world.

"Such formidable soul power! Su Yi, take note, you may not be below it!" Yun Qing furrowed her brows slightly.

Yuan Emperor Realm’s Xue Honglou, who is only at the second level, unexpectedly possesses such powerful spiritual strength. Compared to Wang Quande, who is at the fourth level of the Yuan Emperor Realm, Wang Quande is simply incomparable.

Just now, Su Yi consumed a large amount of vitality when he used the Blood Phoenix Splitting Heaven sword. The vitality in his broad meridians became chaotic and wandered around. Su Yi furrowed his brow and thought to himself.

"Do we really need to use the Sacred Tool here?"

The Sacred Tool has always been Su Yi’s absolute trump card. He doesn’t want to use it unless it’s a critical moment. In his battle against Xue Honglou, Su Yi hopes to defeat him with his true strength. That’s why he chose the Blood Demon Killing Excalibur.

Because Su Yi believes that Xue Honglou is someone who can challenge boundaries just like him. If Xue Honglou can’t even defeat Su Yi, how can he compete with Baiying Divine Child and the great warriors of the continent?

As Xue Honglou’s handprints continued to condense and his killing intent gradually surged, a crimson light filled Su Yi’s forehead, emitting immense pressure. Su Yi loudly exclaimed, "Wait!"

Su Yi and Wang Quande share a deep-seated enmity. After practicing for so many years, Su Yi’s goal was to reclaim everything from Wang Quande, who is also the mastermind of the Li clan’s troubles. How could he let Xue Honglou seize the opportunity?

Xue Honglou’s gaze remained fixed, and he coldly uttered, "Handle your fellow disciple. Outsiders are not allowed to interfere!" Then, a holy light emanated from his hand again.

"It’s not your turn to decide his fate here!"

Suddenly, there was a loud noise that made Xue Honglou pause for a moment. He turned around and looked at Su Yi with eyes filled with anger, showing disdain and contempt. He glanced up and down, and a small smile appeared on his lips.

"Dead people have no right to take someone else’s life!"

As soon as the words were spoken, Xue Honglou remained still. Patterns formed in his hands, and a golden handprint condensed and struck out. At the same time, a powerful saint king aura emanated from his forehead, rolling towards Su Yi.

"I’ll take care of this!" Yun Qing whispered softly.

Su Yi blocked her hand, and a strong fighting spirit and fiery energy surged within him. His body soared into the air again, and in an instant, his whole body was filled with intense fire energy, as if possessing a mysterious power that transcended time and space.

"Roar!"

A colossal golden dragon phantom emerged from within Su Yi’s body, stretching across the night sky for hundreds of feet, spanning the heavens and the earth. Its enormous divine body covered half of the sky, its scales undulating boldly, creating a flaming spectacle that shocked the world!

Within the celestial horizon, the resounding roar of the dragon traversed the ancient ages. Within the radiant light, a tremendous aura of dragon’s might swept through the void between heaven and earth.

The golden dragon soared into the sky, its fierce eyes shining brilliantly, directly aiming towards Xue Honglou.

Under a powerful presence, Wang Quande and Li Ling felt a sudden chill and shivered. They activated their protective energy.

At this moment, including Yun Qing, the onlookers were shocked and speechless. They whispered, "Su Yi’s presence is actually able to resist the aura of the Fifth Saint Child’s saint king!" This scene was too terrifying, with a majestic and overwhelming energy filling the air.

"There is a huge age difference of nearly eight or nine years between the two. The Fifth Saint Child, who is already in his thirties, is a rare genius of the Sacred Mountain! And this Su Yi!" Li Ling’s face showed shock.

Su Yi’s talent and potential were terrifying. If he was left unchecked today, it would undoubtedly be a disaster for the Sacred Mountain. Xue Honglou also realized Su Yi’s strength and potential, which far surpassed the rumored king of prodigies.

Xue Honglou, who rarely left seclusion, had ascended to a higher realm after coming out of the Spirit Treasure Tower. At the Second Level of the Yuan Emperor Realm, he believed he was invincible within the same level. However, Su Yi now posed a great threat to him.

"Swish!"

The collision of their presence caused the void to tremble!

Just as Xue Honglou was about to kill Wang Quande, Su Yi’s presence dissipated. He activated the Hundred Transformations Step and swiftly left a long afterimage in the air, pouncing towards Xue Honglou.

At that moment, the heavens and earth shook, and the winds and clouds surged.

Slow-moving Xue Honglou felt a tiny tremor behind him, as if a big blurry figure, without turning his head, suddenly struck with a palm from above.

Su Yi used the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique, and the energy inside his body, called Void God Sea, flowed like a great river. With the Hundred Transformations Step, he swiftly dodged the giant palm imprint, twisting and turning, and in the next instant, he appeared next to Xue Honglou.

Xue Honglou’s gaze narrowed slightly, clearly surprised by Su Yi’s strength and speed. He no longer underestimated him, and his aura erupted, unleashing a burst of golden light to protect himself.
