Chapter 710: Chapter 710 He is Stupid to Death_1
The Dragon Slayer Sword traveled at such speed that it was nearly impossible to track its trajectory with the naked eye. However, Yin Huan, who was a genuine first-rate Martial King, was no ordinary man. Cloaked in vigorous and robust Qi, he was well defended against the sharp attack of the Dragon Slayer Sword.
"A mere Sword Control Technique can’t harm me," Yin Huan sneered, seemingly tracking the trajectory of the Dragon Slayer Sword. With a backhand slap, he sent the sword flying.
With a squeeze of the sword code in his hand, Su Chengyu sent the Dragon Slayer Sword whirling through the air again, following a perfect arc.
The crowd gathered around to watch the duel grew larger by the minute. After all, it wasn’t often one got to witness a fight to the death, let alone between Su Chengyu, the newly crowned champion of the Dragon Soul Conference, and Yin Huan, an outstanding character of the Eastern Region. There was no way the duel wouldn’t draw attention.
Wang Chaozong of the Feng Yang Dragon Soul Si was surprised when he heard the news. "Why didn’t the Grand Minister stop the duel?" he asked.
"The Grand Minister didn’t seem to pay any mind to what was happening, as if he had no intention of intervening," said an official from the Feng Yang Dragon Soul Si.
"This is a fight to the death, though. It’s baffling that the Grand Minister would leave it alone. It’s an ugly situation, no matter who dies - the promising newcomer he values so much, or the Grand Airspace Officer from Jiangnan," stated the vice-grade Grand Airspace Officer, Wen Shengguo, puzzled.
Wang Chaozong rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "The Grand Minister is an old fox. His thoughts are impossible for people like us to fathom. Perhaps he’s quietly permitted this duel in the first place."
"Who is he backing? Yin Huan? That seems unlikely!" Wen Shengguo exclaimed, surprised.
"Certainly not Yin Huan. He may be the Grand Airspace Officer of Jiangnan, but he doesn’t hold a candle to Su Chengyu, the rising star cultivator, in terms of potential and influence. It’s obvious to anyone who’s measuring Su Chengyu’s value that the Grand Minister probably plans to promote another candidate to replace Yin Huan. After all, Yin Huan and Su Chengyu have had their differences. It’s a win-win to use Su ChengYu to take out Yin Huan and further build Su Chengyu’s reputation," said Wang Chaozong, analyzing the situation.
Wang Chaozong’s insight made sense to Wen Shengguo.
"So, are you suggesting that Su ChengYu has the capability to kill Yin Huan, a first-grade Martial King, even though he had to struggle to defeat Lee Longqing?" asked Wen Shengguo, still doubtful.
"A first-rate Martial King is nothing. Haven’t you forgotten that he killed the patriarch of the Zhuo family, a Ninth-grade Martial King, instantly with just a piece of talisman back in Suifeng? He’s a cultivator, and his origins are mysterious; no one has yet to uncover his background. He must have powerful artifacts and talismans with him."
"If Su ChengYu were to rely solely on his own abilities, he certainly wouldn’t be able to kill Yin Huan. But, with the aid of powerful artifacts and talismans, even ten Yin Huans wouldn’t stand a chance against him!"
"Then why was the fight with Lee Longqing such a hard-won victory?" Wen Shengguo still didn’t understand.
"There are only two possibilities. The first is, he deliberately concealed his skills so as not to frighten Yin Huan, because Yin Huan would not have accepted the challenge out of fear. If this is the case, Su Chengyu’s deep cunning and strategic mind is terrifying!"
As Wang Chaozong analyzed, his expression grew more serious, realizing the extent of Su Chengyu’s cunning.
"What’s the second possibility?" Wen Shengguo continued.
"The second reason could be that he wanted a fair fight with Lee Longqing, relying on his own strength to win decisively. After all, that was a competition, not a duel to the death, and he couldn’t afford to kill Lee Longqing. The Lee family’s wrath would not be something he could handle, which is why he didn’t dare to use talismans," said Wang Chaozong.
"I see! Brother Wang, your wisdom is like a bright light, piercing right through this lad’s cunning schemes. It seems Yin Huan is doomed to die," said Wen Shengguo, nodding in affirmation.
"Yin Huan’s death would be no great loss. It’s not Su Chengyu’s fault. It’s simply that Yin Huan was foolish. Su Chengyu has an obvious advantage, and Yin Huan should have known from the beginning that Su Chengyu’s potential would win the favor and reward of the Grand Minister. But instead, he insisted on making an enemy, ending up killing himself with his stupidity," Wang Chaozong said dismissively.
When Wang Chaozong spoke about Yin Huan and the others, he showed a hint of contempt. Even amongst the six Dragon Soul citadels of the Eastern Region, Liang Youdao wasn’t considered by Wang Chaozong to be a formidable opponent. He looked down even more on Yin Huan, whose capability and intelligence fell short of Wang Chaozong’s standards.
Meanwhile, the fight between Su Chengyu and Yin Huan was thrilling. Yin Huan, the first-grade Martial King, seemed effortless as he parried the attacks of Su Chengyu’s Sword Control Technique, repelling the Dragon Slayer Sword multiple times.
When the Dragon Slayer Sword came flying at him again, he shifted his body, capturing the blade of the Dragon Slayer Sword in his hand. Although the blade was directly against his skin, it couldn’t inflict any harm.
The Dragon Slayer Sword buzzed with vibrating energy, incessant in its efforts to escape Yin Huan’s grip. Seizing this opportunity, Su Chengyu launched himself into the air, performing the Chaotic Sword Code with a flick of his hand. Instantly, multiple waves of Sword Qi filled the sky, sweeping toward Yin Huan.
With a mighty sweep of his hand, Yin Huan sent the Dragon Slayer Sword flying, burying it in the ground. Bursting fearlessly into the shower of Sword Qi, he retaliated with an explosive punch, summoning a colossal tiger that appeared behind him. The tiger pounced forward, its overwhelming power seemingly shattering the wall of the Sword Qi attack.
Recoiling from the force of Yin Huan’s attack, Su Chengyu retreated, his blood roiling within him. He couldn’t help but acknowledge silently, "The Martial King Realm is truly formidable!"
Having just fought against Lee Longqing, a Half-Step Martial King, in the morning, Su Chengyu now faced off against a genuine first-rate Martial King. The chasm between the two was immense.
"Meet your doom!"
Having gained the upper hand, Yin Huan was relentless. Raising his fist again, the phantom tiger behind him seemed to surge out from a void. Its colossal figure, more than ten meters long, seemed to shake the very ground beneath it. With a roar, the tiger displayed the majesty of the king of all beasts; anyone under the Martial King Realm felt an irresistible urge to kneel in fear.
With a flicker of a thought, Su Chengyu called back the Dragon Slayer Sword with a clang. Holding it in a defensive stance before him, he channeled his mana and summoned the shadow of a True Dragon out of the Dragon Slayer Sword.
At that moment, Su Chengyu, wielding the Dragon Slayer sword and commanding the dragon shadow, carried an air of grandeur that matched Yin Huan’s mighty aura.
"Break!"
With a deep-throated command from Su Chengyu, the Dragon Slayer Sword swept through the air, expelling a True Dragon Sword Qi twelve meters long. Between the two combatants, a scenario of dragon and tiger contending unfolded. The massive shock waves generated from their collision drove the bystanders away.
The resonating roars of the dragon and tiger were deafening. A thunderous explosion instantly destroyed Yin Huan’s chamber, reducing it to rubble. The surrounding trees and buildings, caught in this massive shockwave, were likewise demolished.
The impact produced by this collision was even greater than the one generated by Su Chengyu’s fight with Lee Longqing earlier.
