Chapter 693: Chapter 531: Taking Responsibility Alone

Even though they were surrounded by all the strong figures at the scene, Su Yu remained calm and indifferent. On the other hand, Kou Xiaowei was quite terrified because she recognized these powerful people who were evoking her terrible memories.

Su Yu felt that Kou Xiaowei held the corner of his clothes because she was scared. He gave a gentle smile, lightly patted her head, and nonchalantly asked, "Who among you is allowed to make a decision?"

The three old men, who had their eyes slightly squinted, were sizing Su Yu up at this moment. They shared a somewhat weird expression on their faces. They had never seen a young man like Su Yu who could remain so calm under his circumstances. After all, they were in the "White Tiger Giant City," which was said to be the strongest in the "Black Iron World". He was surrounded by these renowned figures, yet this young man remained unperturbed - what sort of trump card did he have?

Seeing the calm and composed Su Yu, the group felt somewhat strange. The middle-aged woman took a step further and gave a sarcastic laugh before saying, "Kid, even if a god descends today, they couldn’t protect you. You better get your last words ready!"

Su Yu slightly frowned and asked the middle-aged woman. "Are you the leader of White Tiger?"

The middle-aged woman had completely composed herself from her initial rage, and a sense of haughtiness and elegance emanated from her, transforming her image from a shrew to a lady of high status. She finally radiated a bit of the grandeur expected from the city leader.

"Indeed, I am the leader of White Tiger. You can give up any hope of surviving. Today, no one can protect you." The middle-aged woman let out a harsh laugh. For many years, no such incident had occurred in the "White Tiger Giant City". Su Yu’s actions had sparked a deep anger in them, as it was a direct challenge to their authority. Such a provocation wouldn’t be tolerated in any of the giant cities, let alone their city, which was the leader of the "Ten Great Giant Cities".

Su Yu observed that the middle-aged woman was a fighter of the ninth order level; although she was nowhere near reaching the peak. Among everyone present, the strongest were those three old men with their eyes slightly squinted as if they were merely spectators. According to his initial speculations, they were either close to or had already reached the peak of the ninth level.

Su Yu was now hesitant. He could guess why they sought Kou Xiaowei - it had to do with a half piece of unknown origin paper. When he rushed in to save Kou Xiaowei, this middle-aged woman was groping Kou Xiaowei for something. He guessed she must have been searching Kou Xiaowei for this paper. Because of the limited time, the middle-aged woman didn’t get a chance to interrogate Kou Xiaowei and was planning to subdue her, but then he appeared unexpectedly and rescued Kou Xiaowei.

Now, Su Yu was considering how to settle the enmity between the White Tiger Giant City and Kou Xiaowei. He wouldn’t always be there to guard Kou Xiaowei, and he couldn’t possibly eradicate the White Tiger clan today. Moreover, there was the secret and fearsome Aztec race behind the White Tiger Giant City.

Looking at the fuming expression of the middle-aged woman, he realized that he had touched their sore spot today, and they wouldn’t let him leave just like that. Therefore, it would be better to let them gather all the resentment on him.

Having understood these points, Su Yu gave a light smile and said, "I came here today to tell you that it’s useless to look for Kou Xiaowei. She gave that thing to me."

When Su Yu said this, Kou Xiaowei looked at him in shock, not understanding why Su Yu would reveal this crucial matter. The group instinctively surged forward, and the middle-aged woman’s face changed instantly—"What did you say?"

Everyone suspected that the secret could only be known to and possibly would only be with Kou Xiaowei. They never imagined that Kou Xiaowei would tell anyone else. The secret involved too broad and horrifying a scope. Here and now, Su Yu’s words were earth-shattering, leaving everyone in shock.

Stroking Kou Xiaowei’s head, Su Yu smiled and said, "Xiao Wei has handed the thing over to me. If you want it, come find me directly."

Only then did Kou Xiaowei understand. Apparently, Su Yu was taking up all the responsibility, protecting her in this way. If the White Tiger Giant City truly believed that the object was with Su Yu, they would focus all their strength and means on him — ignoring her life and death.

After all, a young girl had no worth for the White Tiger Giant City to confront.

"Big Brother..." Kou Xiaowei tightened her grip on Su Yu’s clothes, her face was full of emotions.

At Su Yu’s announcement, everyone around displayed varied reactions. The voice of the middle-aged woman drag out, "Are you telling the truth? That wretched girl handed the thing over to you?"

Given Su Yu’s sudden revelation, the middle-aged woman and the others started to believe him somewhat. Logically speaking, Su Yu couldn’t have uttered such a sentence if Kou Xiaowei hadn’t told him something. The fact that he could say such a thing possibly meant that he had learned some inside information. Even more, could that object have fallen into Su Yu’s possession?

At this thought, the faces of the middle-aged woman and those around her became very unsightly. Su Yu remained calm and smiled slightly, "Indeed, Xiao Wei has handed the object to me. If you want this object, come and find me."

The expression on the middle-aged woman’s face slightly lengthened, and she sneered, "Regardless of who possesses the object, both of you will be buried here today, especially you --" she suddenly pointed at Su Yu, then waved her hand and shouted sharply, "Capture him first!"

At her command, immediately, a group of strong individuals at the Eighth-Order Peak to Ninth Order Level transformed and sprinted, rushing towards Su Yu in the blink of an eye. Five of them were close-combat experts while several others released fearsome pillars of light, flames, and ice blades that rained down.

The attack by several high-ranking Ninth Order Level experts and numerous Eighth-Order Peak fighters was enormously effective. Even a Ninth Level Peak expert would have to deal with it seriously.

Holding Kou Xiaowei’s hand, Su Yu watched as the group rushed at him. He shouted, causing those rushing attackers to scream as if they had been struck by lightning, and they all rebounded heavily. They collided with the ice blades, fireballs, and light pillars that had been launched at his back.

The middle-aged woman and the three elders all widened their eyes in surprise; what was happening before their eyes was utterly astonishing.

One of the elders suddenly opened his eyes wide, then silently made a move. He stretched out his right hand, and a large amount of blood surged from his palm. This blood extended wildly and coalesced into a blood-red scythe in the blink of an eye. With one strike of "Blood Scythe Slash", he aimed for Su Yu’s head.

Once this Blood Scythe Slash was made, numerous blood-red scythe illusions appeared in the air. Su Yu was completely covered, making it impossible to distinguish which was the illusion and which one was the real entity.

As soon as the elder made a move, Su Yu could tell that his power was approaching the Ninth Level Peak. However, it hadn’t reached the supreme level of Yang Yue and Zhu Xiuqi and the three old fellows. From their perspective, this elder was still quite a distance away.

Su Yu narrowed his eyes, and with a shift in will, he immediately knew which one of the illusory Blood Scythe Slashes was the real one. He stretched out his right hand and with a grab, he caught the real entity out of the multitude of Blood Scythe Slashes. In the instant he reached out, his right hand had turned into a black claw, grabbed the Blood Scythe Blade, and tugged it fiercely.

The burst of horrifying power and the sound of his "Black Iron Blood" rushing through his body forced the elder, caught off guard, to let out a startled scream. He was completely thrown off by Su Yu’s sudden tug and sent sprawling towards another elder.

The other elder’s face changed color as he sensed the tremendous force. Seeing the impending collision, he felt suffocated and didn’t dare to block it directly. He had no choice but to sidestep to avoid it.

The group of powerful attackers who hustled Su Yu were knocked down by Su Yu’s shout and scattered around. One of the three most powerful elders of "White Tiger Giant City" was thrown away by Su Yu after one round of face-to-face confrontation. Su Yu’s extraordinary move astounded everyone present.

The middle-aged woman Iooked stunned and took in a deep breath. She was unable to comprehend how this young man could be so powerful. After all, these three elders were the strongest in the White Tiger Giant City. Only those who came from the Upper Realm might have the power to defeat these three elders in a single strike. But clearly, Su Yu had not reached the point of crossing out of this world. How was he able to do this?

The middle-aged woman was puzzled, but the elder who could summon the Blood Sickle Blade had already barely rolled over on the spot, steadied himself, and stood up. However, he looked a bit disheveled and his face had turned unsightly. Without uttering a word after he landed, he rushed at Su Yu once more and suddenly let out a sharp cry, "Cyclone Slash!"

Holding the scythe, the elder spun around and transformed into a violent storm, forming a bloody red tornado that bore some resemblance to the "Apocalyptic Storm" released by Su Yu. This tornado charged towards Su Yu with an incredibly aggressive manner.

Su Yu didn’t say a word and plunged into the "Cyclone Slash" storm. Soon after, there were sharp, screeching noises as the rotating Blood Scythe Blades slashed at his body but couldn’t penetrate the black scales that he had revealed. He struck with his right hand once again, causing the Blood Scythe Blade to shatter. Along with the elder, both were heavily blasted out nearly a hundred meters away. Once they hit the ground, they couldn’t get up again.

One of the three most powerful elders was destroyed by Su Yu in just one round, as if he had done something trivial. He returned his morphed giant lizard form back to normal and returned to Kou Xiaowei’s side. (To be continued. For more content, please visit www.qidian.com.
