Chapter 1265: Chapter 1265: I Choose Your Horse!
The verdant flames consumed the soul and charred the bones, leaving not a single trace of Red Flame in the world, as he dissipated completely between heaven and earth.
Seizing the opportunity of Red Flame’s death and the next challenger yet to step into the Martial Arts Field, Su Chengyu unabashedly recuperated his depleted mana to maintain his optimal condition.
Right from the start, Su Chengyu was utterly confident about facing Red Flame.
Although the Red Flame he had encountered on Mount Qianhe had changed dramatically, Su Chengyu was still able to discern the extent of Red Flame’s true strength during the demon extermination conference.
What he was wary of was the ultimate secret technique that Red Flame had kept hidden.
The three days of time were allotted not only for Su Chengyu’s preparation and recovery but also for his adversaries to devise the most thorough countermeasures against him.
The hidden card Red Flame held did indeed leave Su Chengyu somewhat disappointed.
Logically speaking, with Yang Chengyin’s support, Red Flame should have had more to offer than that.
Was it possible that Yang Chengyin hadn’t provided Red Flame with additional means to deal with him, that he didn’t harbor much suspicion towards him?
According to the information that Bei Tang Ru Meng had provided, even a not yet fully mature Yang Chengyin was an extremely cautious and meticulous person.
Although both hailed as the Demon Slayer Department’s finest, Yang Chengyin and Su Cheng’s father, Su Zhedian, were like two extremes.
His father was unconstrained, upright, and never sweat the small stuff.
Yang Chengyin, on the other hand, was always on thin ice, not only taking every matter seriously but also viewing everyone with a nearly suspicious eye.
So at the outset, Su Chengyu had thought that Yang Qianyan proposing this life-and-death duel was Yang Chengyin’s way of testing his own capabilities.
Could it be that he was really overthinking it?
Uncertainty nagged at Su Chengyu, leaving him somewhat indecisive.
If that was truly the case, perhaps he could reveal more of his abilities than originally planned.
Within his Sea of Consciousness, the Dragon Slayer Sword stirred slightly.
The Dragon Slayer Sword of today had undergone tremendous changes from when Su Chengyu first obtained it.
It wasn’t just the appearance that changed, but the innate aura and the characteristics of its mana were completely different from before.
Just to be safe, apart from the moment he arrived in the Capital City when Su Chengyu had wielded the Dragon Slayer Sword to save the critically endangered Zhuang Yihan, he had since sealed it completely.
Today, as he watched the eager crowd below the stage, Su Chengyu was uncertain about how long he would be able to hold back.
The next opponent...
From below, Su Pingping leaped onto the Martial Arts Field, her eyes scanning the surrounding flames that had yet to fully dissipate as she coldly began, "The Twelve Holy Emissaries are nothing special after all, to think they can’t even handle a mere Loose Cultivator. Truly disappointing."
Su Pingping’s words cast a shadow over many faces in the Demon Slayer Department; while they could disregard Red Flame’s defeat, they were naturally displeased when the criticism extended to themselves.
"This Miss Su sure has a big mouth," Mo Ningchen commented with a cold laugh.
After witnessing the confrontation between Su Chengyu and Red Flame, even Mo Ningchen could not confidently claim that he would certainly defeat Su Chengyu who clearly had yet more cards up his sleeve, including the renowned Immortal Artifact.
In a life-and-death duel, nearly all is permitted, whether it’s a God-ranked Elixir or an Immortal-ranked Magic Artifact; anything that belongs to oneself is fair game.
Yet when Su Chengyu fought Red Flame, he showed no intention of using the Wasteland Sky Halberd, signaling to everyone that he was indeed not fighting at full strength.
"Whether it’s confidence or arrogance, we’ll soon find out," Huang Quan said coldly, clearly not regarding Su Pingping as his favored contender.
"What is the realm of that old nursemaid of the Su family?" the Miaofeng Holy Envoy inquired, her gaze resting on the old nursemaid who had accompanied Su Pingping, someone she had noticed early on, yet even with her keen eye power she was unable to see through the old woman’s strength.
"He’s concealed his aura, but at the very least he’s reached the Hollow Void."
Yang Qianyan’s detached statement made the other Holy Emissaries furrow their brows.
The Hollow Void Realm was not something that would catch their attention, but the assessment ’at the very least Hollow Void’ was entirely different.
Since Yang Qianyan had given such an answer, it indicated that the elder might be a reclusive Earth Immortal of the Su Clan!
It was common knowledge that there were Land Immortals within the Ancient Clans.
The long years of history had allowed the Ancient Clans to accumulate a heritage that ordinary families of Xia Country could not compare with.
The Aristocratic families with a thousand years of inheritance could always ensure the presence of at least one Land Immortal among their ranks, but how much more extensive was the inheritance of the Ancient Clans?
Nobody knew exactly how many Land Immortals existed within the Ancient Clans; these Land Immortals rarely appeared in the world. Even when Xia Country was in turmoil, only a few of these Ancient Clan’s Land Immortals had records of taking action.
It was as if the rise and fall of Xia Country’s dynasties and the tumult of the nation’s fate had nothing to do with them.
"It’s not a Land Immortal."
Ye Qingci’s cold voice interrupted everyone’s conjecture. Yang Qianyan might not have been able to completely discern the old woman’s bottom line, but to Ye Qingci, the other party’s disguise wasn’t much of a secret.
Hollow Void Eighth Level.
Moreover, Ye Qingci was certain that during the Demon Extermination Conference, this person was definitely not in the Su Clan’s team.
The other party had obviously come to the Capital City for the life-and-death battle between Su Chengyu and Su Pingping.
All just because Su Chengyu had the surname Su?
Ye Qingci cast a cold glance at the old nanny, unable to completely penetrate the facade covering her appearance.
But that didn’t stop Ye Qingci from judging that the other party’s cultivation age was not very long.
Of course, it was not comparable to her own, but a realm of Hollow Void Eighth Level, and a cultivation of merely a hundred years, was undoubtedly the mark of a genius.
So why would such a person need to disguise themselves?
On the other side, the old nanny of the Su Clan seemed to have noticed Ye Qingci’s gaze and turned her head to nod slightly at Ye Qingci as a gesture.
Ye Qingci, however, acted as if she hadn’t seen it and turned her attention back to the Martial Arts Field.
Among the Ancient Clans, Ye Qingci detested the Cloud Tribe the most, followed by the Su Clan.
"We meet again, Miss Su."
Su Chengyu looked at Su Pingping and spoke with a smile, his confidence making Su Pingping very dissatisfied.
"If you promise to change your name and surname, I guarantee that the Su Clan will no longer trouble you in the future."
Su Pingping spoke coldly to Su Chengyu, giving him her ultimatum.
Upon hearing this, Su Chengyu couldn’t help but laugh, "You’re asking me to betray my ancestors and leave my clan, Miss Su. May I know why? Just because my surname is Su?"
"Exactly!" Su Pingping affirmed, "As long as you can agree to this, the Su Clan can overlook everything else from the past. Otherwise, even if I die today, the Su Clan will certainly not let you go in the future."
Su Chengyu looked at Su Pingping and shook his head helplessly, "I thought Red Flame’s strength was already enough to disappoint me, but the narrow-mindedness of the Su Clan is even more pitiable, no... it’s tragic."
"What are you but trash!"
Su Pingping’s face flushed with anger, and she didn’t want to speak any further with Su Chengyu. She shouted angrily, "Today you either change your name and surname, or you’ll be pursued by the Su Clan for the rest of your life! Su Chengyu, the choice is yours!"
"I choose your mother!"
