Chapter 1560 - The Show Is Not Yet Over
Immediately afterward, uproar arose on all sides. Everything was in chaos.
The juniors seated around Su Yi all fled in terror, moving further away. In their panic, they overturned tables and chairs. Plates and cups shattered against the floor, making a huge mess.
Xiao Ju, Holy Son Zhong Qi, and the other members of the Church of All Spirits were shocked and furious.
Atop the jade platform, Libationer Yun Qiong frowned, his gaze icy.
The Immortal Lords and Void Realm True Immortals among the audience shot to their feet.
That is, except for Qing Wei. A hint of a smile tugged at her lips. She knew that she no longer had anything to worry about.
“Silence!” bellowed Xiao Ju. His voice boomed like thunder, and the entire hall promptly quieted down. Oppressive, murderous intent permeated every last inch of the hall.
When the crowd looked at Su Yi, bewilderment was written all over their faces. They couldn’t even imagine how a young man like him would dare kick up a fuss here. Was he truly not afraid to die?
Holy Son Zhong Qi said with seething murderous intent, “How dare you commit murder at the Church of All Spirits’ assembly? You’ll die for this! Quick, get him!”
A group of Church of All Spirits immortals charged over.
Meanwhile, terrifying auras locked firmly onto Qing Wei. Xiao Ju, Immortal Lord Nine Cranes, Immortal Lord Talisman Flame, and the others wanted to prevent her from rushing to Su Yi’s aid.
Qing Wei’s charming eyes glinted with murderous intent. How could she possibly be afraid of them?
But just as she planned to attack——
Boom!
Terrifying immortal light burst forth, and the immortals charging at Su Yi were sent flying in different directions.
A figure had silently appeared before Su Yi.
His hair was as white as snow, and he had youthful features. This was none other than the owner of the Generalists’ Tower, Feng Yeyun!
The characteristic aura of an Immortal Lord billowed around him, bearing down on the crowd’s souls.
This development was entirely unexpected, and it caught most of the crowd off guard.
“Brother Feng, you...” Xiao Ju was furious.
Libationer Yun Qiong’s expression darkened.
Su Yi rubbed his forehead. He was a bit surprised too. He wouldn’t have thought the owner of the Generalists’ tower would dare offend even the Church of All Spirits!
Feng Yeyun met the crowd’s infuriated gazes and smiled faintly. “I, Feng Yuyun, am also opposed to this marriage alliance!”
“Why?” Xiao Ju said icily. “As I’m sure you’re aware, you alone cannot possibly change the situation! And your actions will irrevocably offend our Church of All Spirits!”
This was a blatant threat.
Many of the onlookers shuddered as they realized that Xiao Ju was completely enraged.
Feng Yeyun couldn’t help but laugh. “If you don’t want a bigger incident, I urge you to let this end here. Give up all schemes against Immortal Lady Qing Wei, or I’m afraid you won’t be able to bear the consequences.”
Xiao Ju was so angry that he laughed. “You think too highly of yourself!”
“What... if I step in too?” A dignified voice rang out, and the crowd watched as Immortal Lord Xing Yu, one of the commanders of the Black Dragon Guard, slowly rose from his seat.
Terrifying pressure permeated his surroundings.
Boom!
Everyone was startled, to the point that they almost dared not believe their eyes. Even if you’d hit them over the head, they wouldn’t have guessed that Immortal Lord Xing Yu, someone the Church of All Spirits saw as their distinguished guest, would stick out his neck and oppose this marriage on a young man’s behalf!
“Fellow Daoist Xing Yu, why would you...”
Xiao Ju was a bit stunned, and he found this hard to believe.
Immortal Lord Nine Cranes, Immortal Lord Talisman Flame, and the others all sensed that something wasn’t right about this situation.
A young man relegated to a remote corner had caused a commotion, yet the owner of the Generalists’ Tower and a commander of the Black Dragon Guards had stuck out their necks on his behalf. This was unquestionably out of the ordinary!
Immortal Lord Xing Yu said calmly, “Let’s end this here. Otherwise, I won’t remain uninvolved.”
These developments already had Holy Son Zhong Qi so furious that he almost coughed up blood. This time, he couldn’t help but interject, “Is that your stance, or do you speak for all of the Black Dragon Guards?”
Xing Yu said coldly, “Idiot! Is there a difference?”
Zhong Qi’s expression was unsightly.
The Black Dragon Market was under the Black Dragon Guards’ jurisdiction.
And Xing Yu was one of their four commanders. If he was intent on intervening, who wouldn’t have to carefully weigh the potential consequences?
Suddenly, Libationer Yun Qiong said, “Don’t tell me you can represent the Red Dragon Dao Monarch?”
“Think about that for yourself,” Xing Yu said without even pausing to think.
Neither backed down! The air was rife with tension!
By now, even a complete idiot would have realized that Su Yi’s identity wasn’t simple!
Otherwise, how could Xing Yu and Feng Yeyun, both Immortal Lords, have stuck up for him even if it meant falling out with the Church of All Spirits?
After a moment’s silence, Libationer Yun Qiong said, “Very well. The Church of All Spirits will give face to the Red Dragon Dao Monarch. We won’t pursue this any further!”
His voice was icy. It would have been obvious to anyone that this libationer of the Church of All Spirits wasn’t willing to accept this!
Nonetheless, he’d backed down. This made many of those in the crowd sigh in relief.
If this came to blows, the consequences would be unimaginable.
After all, even if the Church of All Spirits had an advantage in numbers, this was the Black Dragon Market, the Black Dragon Guards’ territory!
And Auspicious Cloud Palace wasn’t at all far from the Dragon’s Retreat, the place the Red Dragon Dao Monarch was in seclusion!
Xiao Ju’s expression was unsightly, but in the end, he said nothing.
Holy Son Zhong Qi practically went mad with fury. He couldn’t help but say, “Qing Wei, I’m telling you, when I set my sights on a woman, there’s no way she’ll escape my grasp! And without the Church of All Spirits’ aid, your master won’t make it through the year!”
His voice boomed throughout the hall. It would have been obvious to anyone that he was furious.”
Qing Wei’s gaze was cold and indifferent. She couldn’t even be bothered to argue. Instead, she turned to Su Yi and said, “Young Lord, let’s go.”
Feng Yeyun laughed. “Let’s go together.”
Immortal Lord Xing Xing Yu nodded. “There’s no point lingering in this place any longer.”
He planned to leave too, but he, Feng Yeyun, and Qing Wei all looked at Su Yi first.
The crowd noticed, and their attitude sent waves through the crowd’s hearts. They finally realized that the young man seated in the corner, the one they’d been ignoring, was at the heart of this storm.
Even three Immortal Lords had to consider his opinion before taking action!
This was far too unbelievable.
Who is he?
How could he have such authority?
Fang Han silently rose and stubbornly pursed his lips. He grumbled, “This is the ‘show’ you mentioned? It was over far too quickly.”
The crowd was flabbergasted. This wasn’t enough of a spectacle for that kid?
“Over? Far from it.” Su Yi’s gaze landed on Holy Son Zhong Qi, and he said casually, “An old scoundrel told that man’s fortune. He saw black clouds hovering over his head and a life hanging in the balance. Today, he must die to make that fortune a reality.”
The crowd was dumbstruck. All they could think was, Is he... planning to kill the holy son of the Church of All Spirits?
That’s insane!
“You, you, you....” Holy Son Zhong Qi was so angry his lungs threatened to burst, and he was visibly overcome with bloodlust.
“And do you two feel the same?”
Atop the jade platform, Libationer Yun Qiong slowly rose from his seat. His expression was cold and cruel, and his eyes blazed with terrifying flames as he gazed at Immortal Lord Xing Yu and Feng Yeyun.
Imposing pressure spread out and filled the hall.
Everyone looked stricken.
This top Immortal Lord of the Church of All Spirits was obviously thoroughly enraged.
Feng Yeyun’s expression was solemn, but he nonetheless nodded. “That’s right!”
Immortal Lord Xing Yu said coldly, “Of course!”
The crowd’s hearts shook. They couldn’t even imagine why these two Immortal Lords were going to such lengths.
Libationer Yun Qiong couldn’t help but throw back his head and laugh, but his laughter seemed extraordinarily sinister.
He swept his gaze across the area and said slowly and emphatically, “In that case, I’d like to see if the few of you can really kill our holy son right under my nose!”
His voice boomed throughout the hall.
There was no doubt about it. Yun Qiong absolutely wouldn’t let anything happen to Holy Son Zhong Qi under his watch!
Meanwhile, Zhong Qi was so stifled that he felt like he was about to explode. He pointed at Su Yi and said, “Little wretch, I’m standing right here, dammit! If you’ve got the balls, come and kill me! Shamelessly boasting as others protect you will only make you look like a coward!”
He’d long since realized that Su Yi lacked the characteristic aura of an immortal. There was no way he’d stepped into the Immortal Dao!
Sure, Su Yi had killed a Universe Realm Immortal with a gesture, but Zhong Qi was confident that his Void Realm True Immortal Strength would be enough to let him crush Su Yi with ease.
Of course, that was on the condition that Su Yi dared to fight him!
Hence his attempt at provocation.
As his voice boomed throughout the hall, the crowd’s expressions shifted. Most of those present were immortals who’d cultivated too long to count. How could they miss that Su Yi had yet to become an immortal?
In contrast, Holy Son Zhong Qi was in the early-stage Void Realm! And he had a Qilin bloodline! Even among Void Realm True Immortals, he was a first-rate expert!
Feng Yeyun and Xing Yu’s brows furrowed, but just as they were about to say something, Su Yi chuckled. “As you wish.”
When the crowd saw him walk toward Zhong Qi, they were baffled. How is this any different from throwing his life away?
Feng Yeyun hurriedly tried to dissuade him. “Sir, how about you let us handle-”
“No need for that,” said Su Yi. “You can just stand back and watch. None of you are to intervene.”
Feng Yeyun and Xing Yu looked at each other. Both were hesitant, but in the end, they chose not to interfere.
Qing Wei was the calmest of all. Her beautiful eyes shone with strange light. They think the Sovereign is a soft persimmon they can squish as they please? Hah! Truly stupid!
“Hey! Can you really cut it? Whatever you do, don’t push yourself!” Fang Han couldn’t help but shout.
Su Yi was rather surprised. He turned his head and smiled. “Didn’t you want to see me fight this goes? Just watch.”
Fang Han snorted coldly and muttered, “Earlier, you tried to teach me how to behave, and you said my attempts to rile you up were laughable, but look at you now....”
Su Yi couldn’t help but laugh. “You still don’t get it.”
Without any further explanation, he continued ahead.
Along the way, the crowd instinctively cleared a path. When they looked at Su Yi, their gazes were full of varying but intense emotions: bewilderment, hatred, alarm, and pity...
Even Zhong Qi was stunned. He actually dared accept my challenge? Could someone so reckless really exist in this world?
Libationer Yun Qiong frowned and warned him, “Be careful. Don’t get complacent. A lion uses its full strength even when hunting a rabbit! If anyone else dares intervene, I’ll be the first to object!”
Zhong Qi was inwardly solemn. He nodded.
