Chapter 486: Chapter 378: The Terror of a Seventh Stage Expert (Fourth Update)

A calm voice echoed in the air above the mansion, instantly changing the Zhang Brothers’ expressions.

The words were excessively arrogant and were spoken in front of their prestigious guest, Lika Xiya, which stirred up infinite rage in the hearts of the Zhang Brothers.

For Zhang Jianfa, ever since he became one of the powerful overlords for "Peach Blossom Town," no one had ever dared to belittle him like this. Even the current leader of Peach Blossom Town, Jin Fuhua, had to courteously address him as ’brother Zhang’. Especially now that he has connected with Lika Xiya, and seeing that he could soon fulfill his dream—replacing Jin Fuhua as the leader of the entire Peach Blossom Town—someone coming to provoke him at this moment naturally made him furiously embarrassed.

"Who is it? Who dares to be so arrogant?" Zhang Jianfa roared in anger. His voice resonated far and wide, echoing across the entire mansion.

By this time, a considerable number of people from outside the mansion had quietly arrived after hearing the news. Su Yu’s words spread far and wide, and many people heard them. They couldn’t help giving him a thumbs up, feeling both excited and secretly admiring the audacity of this young man. Who had ever spoken in such a way in front of the Zhang Brothers before?

Not just them, even the other three major forces in Peach Blossom Town had already been alerted and sent people to probe and investigate the situation.

Gu Lingshuang and Ren Honglin arrived a step behind Su Yu, heard his voice, glanced at each other, and rushed in together. They quickly saw Su Yu guiding a still sobbing Lei Rui, facing over a hundred gathered individuals. Yet, these hundreds of people were all shocked and didn’t dare to get close.

In just an instant moments ago, Su Yu had used his electricity to kill several people. This deeply shocked these fourth order individuals and they didn’t dare approach. In their eyes, Su Yu was like a Demon God.

"Su Yu." Gu Lingshuang called out and rushed over.

Su Yu glanced at her and handed Lei Rui to her, then he walked up alone, facing these hundreds of soldiers.

The hundreds of them revealed fear in their eyes, dare not approach, and even retreated when they saw Su Yu coming near.

More and more people had gathered to watch around the mansion. Quietly, someone had led the way, and soon, the crowd surged through the iron gate that had been blasted open, into the courtyard, in order to see details from a closer distance. Then, they saw Su Yu standing alone against hundreds of people, and how as Su Yu advanced, these hundreds retreated. They glanced at each other and saw shock in their eyes.

Who was this young man with a Category 5 Lifeform resembling a black tadpole on his shoulder and a large grey dog following him, who could single-handedly fight against hundreds of soldiers, and was even intimidating them into not daring to fight back? Who was he?

Questions loomed on the faces of these increasing spectators. Finally, someone blurted out, "That’s Su Yu from Freedom Village!"

"That’s the Su Yu who defeated Wang Di! I heard he’s a Sixth-order Powerhouse!"

"No wonder he’s so formidable—"

"However, the Zhang brothers are not to be trifled with, he’s just one person—"

The gathering crowd grew, whispers filling the air, as the hundred or so individuals who had been retreating suddenly heard a bellow from behind them: "A bunch of good-for-nothing, step aside—"

As if relieved from a heavy burden, the crowd immediately scattered. Behind them, the Zhang Brothers, along with the blonde girl Lika Xiya and a group of powerhouses emerged.

The group of powerhouses was Zhang Jianfa’s actual force; over twenty Level Five experts. This spectacular power was the reason why he could rule "Peach Blossom Town" and become one of the four overlords.

When the blonde girl Lika Xiya heard that someone was causing a commotion and even specifically mentioned Zhang Jiandao, whom she liked, she felt astonished and came out with the Zhang Brothers to see what was happening. Among the group behind her, two people who had come with her were draped in black robes, their faces hidden, giving them an air of mystery. At the moment, they were just casually following Lika Xiya, protecting their young mistress and turning a deaf ear to everything else.

Su Yu calmly stood there, watching as over a hundred people scattered, and then saw a group of people with a completely different demeanor walk out. He knew that the master had arrived.

Zhang Jiandao, who was accompanying Lika Xiya, looked at Su Yu and momentarily started. He didn’t recognize Su Yu, but when he saw Lei Rui behind him sobbing, he somewhat understood that these troublemakers were here because of her. Unconsciously, he frowned. He never thought that this group of guys, whom he previously looked down upon for coming from a small village, actually had such a powerhouse backing them?

Based on the murmurings of the crowd, it seemed that this fellow was also a Sixth-order Powerhouse. However, he was not at all afraid or worried about this fact. Not only did he have full confidence in himself and his brother, but moreover, he had Lika Xiya by his side. With her power, who would be able to harm him? Not even Jin Fuhua could do it.

"I am Zhang Jianfa. You brat, dare to cause trouble in my mansion... you’re the first." Zhang Jianfa looked at the hordes of people who had swarmed in and felt an incredible amount of annoyance. However, having been through many trials and tribulations, he quickly calmed himself down.

Su Yu stated indifferently: "Zhang Jianfa, hand over Zhang Jiandao. Then... I can spare you... and everyone here." He gestured casually around him with a sense of self-possession and indifference that was truly indescribable, a casualness that felt as if it was only natural, leaving everyone present feeling somewhat perplexed.

Zhang Jianfa looked at Su Yu, slightly taken by surprise. He could hardly believe his eyes. Was this young man in front of him serious, or was he out of his mind? He dared to demand Zhang Jiandao’s release and then pardon him? Was there something wrong with this guy’s brain?

Before Zhang Jianfa could speak, Zhang Jiandao could stand it no longer. He stepped up, throwing up his hands with a mocking smile, "I’m Zhang Jiandao, what do you want to do with me? Kid, are you out of your mind? Do you have any idea where you are and who you’re talking to?"

Su Yu scrutinized him deeply and a smile emerged on his face. He replied, "Good...understood. So, it’s you!" Suddenly, he disappeared.

"Take------" The only ones who managed to react to his sudden movement were three individuals. One of them was Zhang Jianfa, who was almost a Sixth Order Peak powerhouse. His strength was no bluff, as he was recognized as one of the four overlords of "Peach Blossom Town". However, even with his nearly peak Sixth Order, all he managed was a half pronounced syllable of "Take". The others, he did not have time to enunciate, and his body failed to react further.

The other two were the mysterious individuals clad in black robes accompanying Lika Xiya. Both of them had their eyes wide open under the hoods, flashing with surprise. It was clear that they were equally shocked by Su Yu’s actions. However, they too, were unable to react in time, or perhaps to be more precise, they weren’t willing to react without their Mistress’s order.

He was fast, impossibly fast. Many people couldn’t understand Su Yu’s actions at all. They only knew that he vanished suddenly, and when he reappeared, he was beside Zhang Jiandao who also failed to react.

Ada once said that a "Seventh Order Junior" could suppress ten "Sixth Order Peak Powerhouses". This could not be more true.

The vast disparity in strength between the Seventh Order and Sixth Order lies in a perfect balance within the body. Labelling a Seventh Order as the "Black Iron Perfect Warrior" is not without reason.

At a glance, it may seem that the Seventh Order only implies one additional mutation and one more mastered skill compared to the Sixth Order. Internally, the gasification of their mysterious power becomes stronger, and defensively, their body’s ability to attack and defend heightens slightly. But other than that, it seemingly has no other peculiarities. Nevertheless, where the real power of the Seventh Order overshadows the Sixth Order, lies in perfect mutation of the body that comes with an additional mutation.

Just take Su Yu as an example. When he was at his Sixth Order, only his right leg mutated, while his left remained in its ordinary state. The power of his right leg was countless times stronger than his left. During this time, every movement required considerable energy to balance this disparity. This normal left foot created unimaginable obstacles in his speed when he moved.

Similarly, for a person with two normal legs who takes ten seconds to run a hundred meters, if this person’s left leg malfunctions to the point where he cannot exert any strength, how many seconds would he then need to hobble the hundred meters? How many times slower would he then be?

As far as the mutated and powerful right leg was concerned, the unmutated left leg was practically useless.

In a battle, how many times the power would be affected by this? In a fight to the death between masters, losing even half a second could mean life or death, let alone possibly a slowing down to half, or several times that speed. This is the fundamental reason why Seventh Order experts are superior to those of the Sixth Order.

Of course, some Sixth Order powerhouses have mutated both their legs first, leaving the rest of their body unmutated. But the same limits persist. Unless one achieves a completely mutated body, any bodily imperfections will restrain them in battle, causing them to be unable to fully exhibit their power.

Therefore, the Seventh Order overwhelmingly trumps the Sixth Order, not because of augmented power, nor improved techniques or the strengthening of physical capacity. Rather, it is because of the complete mutation of the body and the perfect coordination of all movements. This level of perfection allows a Sixth Order Peak Powerhouse, once he successfully reaches the Seventh Order, to amplify his combat strength and power tenfold in a battle. (To be continued.
