Chapter 872: Chapter 872: Caution is the Parent of Safety

Su Chengyu, aided by the Heaven-Mending Stone, deployed his True Dragon Technique with all his might, invoking the Might of the Artifact from his Dragon Slayer Sword. At this moment, he undoubtedly demonstrated his strongest combat power as he faced the three Martial Saints from the Sky Feather Clan.

These three Martial Saints were all at a higher Realm than Su Chengyu, and had he not possessed many methods, any one of them would have been able to kill him.

Without any reservation, Su Chengyu went all out, also wanting to test his own ultimate fighting strength.

Two of the Sky Feather Clan’s Martial Saints were slain on the spot, while another was gravely injured with one wing severed, plummeting straight down.

"Let’s go!"

Pleased with his combat prowess, Su Chengyu did not linger to loot the storage bags of the deceased, but instead collected the Heaven Heart Lamp and, taking Lin An with him, swiftly rode the clouds away from the area.

Not long after, Sky Feather Clan members successively arrived at the scene. One of them, an Elder of the Clan, confirmed that the victims were indeed the ones they were looking for.

"Chase after them!" the Sky Feather Clan Elder shouted loudly.

Su Chengyu, realizing he had alarmed the members of the Sky Feather Clan, pushed the Cloud Rising Technique to its limit without any hesitation and flew towards Mist City.

The Sky Feather Clan had also stationed people in ambush in Mist City, positioned right outside the city, as the Sky Feather Clan members were unable to enter it.

When Su Chengyu and Lin An arrived at the outskirts of Mist City, they were immediately spotted by the Sky Feather Clan.

"Witch, where do you think you’re escaping to!"

Two members of the Sky Feather Clan charged into battle, and Su Chengyu promptly stepped in to intercept them. Both of these Sky Feather Clan members were at Martial Saint Realm, which he was still capable of handling.

"You go into the city first. I’ll follow shortly."

After fending off the two Sky Feather Clan members with a stroke of his sword, Su Chengyu handed Lin An one hundred Heavenly Pills and urged her to go ahead.

Lin An responded, "No way. There are many people in Mist City, and I can’t ensure my own safety. Staying with you is the safest option."

Su Chengyu nodded in agreement. For Lin An, the safest place was naturally by Su Chengyu’s side. Although his power wasn’t top tier in the Kunwu Realm, Lin An believed Su Chengyu would not harbor ill intentions towards her. This belief was important and gave her a strong sense of security.

"Brat, you dare help our Sky Feather Clan’s prey, making an enemy of our Clan. You’re as good as dead!"

The two Sky Feather Clan members were furious. Once inside Mist City, it would become very difficult for the Sky Feather Clan to continue their pursuit of Lin An. After all, with the vastness of Kunwu Realm, they not only were unable to enter Mist City, but they also didn’t know where Lin An might teleport to. The Sky Feather Clan may be dominant in the South District, but in the other four districts, they face formidable powers as well, preventing them from searching as openly and thoroughly as they could here.

"Hmph! Just with you two?"

Although these two were Martial Saints, they were merely First Grade Martial Saints, hardly worth Su Chengyu’s concern. With hands forming seals, he cast his sword technique, and thirty-six Flying Swords surged forth majestically. The two Sky Feather Clan members dared not take this lightly, brandishing their spears, summoning their Innate Qi-breaking energy to resist the Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Sword Technique.

This was the ultimate sword technique of Mount Qingcheng. Su Chengyu’s execution became increasingly natural, with the technique’s power enhancing, repelling the two Sky Feather Clan members once again and leaving their wings damaged by the Sword Qi, feathers fluttering downward.

Su Chengyu didn’t linger for a fight, to avoid attracting powerful figures from the Sky Feather Clan. After injuring the two, he grabbed Lin An by the hand and flew straight into Mist City.

These two Sky Feather Clan members pursued despite their injuries, but they dared not approach the prohibitions around Mist City, and could only watch Su Chengyu and Lin An from outside the restrictions.

At that moment, two more from the Sky Feather Clan arrived, one of them a Martial Arts Supreme Realm powerhouse, and the other a Ninth Grade Martial Saint. Had Su Chengyu been a bit slower, facing these two would have been more than he could handle.

"Where are they?"

"Elder Tie Chong, we failed to stop them; they escaped into Mist City," the two Sky Feather Clansmen said, heads bowed.

Elder Tie Chong waved a massive hand, sending the two clansmen flying a hundred meters away, angrily exclaiming, "Useless trash!"

"Elder, what do we do now? We can’t get into Mist City, and it looks like we can only watch that demoness escape the South District!" the Ninth Grade Martial Saint from the Sky Feather Clan, Tie Zhou, said through gritted teeth.

"That’s not necessarily the case. Just because they’ve entered Mist City doesn’t mean they’re safe, nor does it mean they can leave the South District. I’ve been prepared for this," Elder Tie Chong said with a sinister smile.

"What do you mean, Elder?" asked Tie Zhou, puzzled.

"Human Clan is greedy; the trialists naturally deceive and slaughter each other. As long as we offer a hefty reward, there will naturally be those willing to work for us. Inside Mist City, I’ve had people arranged for this very scenario, to prevent the demoness from slipping in unnoticed," Elder Tie Chong stroked his beard, looking like the cat that got the cream.

"You are indeed wise, Elder, admirable! Indeed, the Human Clan is greedy and shameless. For the sake of benefit, they would do anything. Using Human Clan greed to deal with that demoness is a masterstroke indeed!" Tie Zhou complimented Elder Tie Chong vigorously.

"Let’s just wait here for the good news. That demoness and that ignorant boy won’t be able to escape; soon enough, someone will deliver them right to us."

Elder Tie Chong flapped his wings, looking into Mist City with an air of certainty.

Having entered Mist City unscathed, Lin An also let out a sigh of relief and said, "That was close, finally inside Mist City. At least we’re safe for now, no need to constantly worry about escaping with our lives."

"Better to remain cautious, Mist City might not be as safe as you think," Su Chengyu reminded.

"What do you mean? The Sky Feather Clan can’t even enter Mist City. How can it not be safe?" Lin An asked.

Su Chengyu rubbed his forehead and explained, "You don’t think all trialists will live in peace, do you? It’s common for trialists to slaughter each other and plunder. In the Kunwu Realm, besides being wary of the Beast Clan, we must also guard against fellow trialists. Didn’t you know that?"

Lin An awkwardly responded, "Before my mana was sealed, I didn’t need to be wary of anyone, so it didn’t occur to me right away."

Su Chengyu nodded. Lin An’s strength was undeniably unparalleled among this group of trialists, and Su Chengyu wasn’t sure if there was anyone stronger than her, but it was unlikely, so she truly didn’t need to regard the other trialists, let alone watch out for them— they weren’t even on the same level.

"Additionally, there’s another possibility—the Sky Feather Clan might set a trap outside Mist City or bribe trialists within to capture you with a bounty; therefore, we must be careful and cautious until we leave the South District," Su Chengyu continued to warn.

Lin An was no fool. With Su Chengyu’s reminder, she understood everything.

"You’re right! Su Chengyu, you are indeed careful and meticulous," Lin An said, somewhat impressed.

"I have no choice but to be careful. The world is perilous, and I’m not as powerful as you, nor do I have a strong backer. If I hadn’t been so careful along the way, I wouldn’t even know how many times I could have died. Life is precious, and only caution will carry us through the years," Su Chengyu said earnestly.
