Chapter 952 - The Far Shore
The silver-robed man’s pupils constricted. He held his spear horizontally and blocked.0
Crunch!0
The spear split in two.1
Dazzling sword qi continued ahead, its power undiminished. It cleaved into the man in silver, sending him flying once more. The layer of armor beneath his robes burst, and a bloody slash extended from his left shoulder all the way down his ribs.0
He’d come perilously close to getting disemboweled!0
The silver-robed man visibly lost his composure. His heart filled with terror and disbelief.0
He had late-stage Profound Illumination Realm cultivation, and he controlled the taboo power of the Laws of Heavenly Prayer.0
Yet now, he suddenly realized that the strongest ability at his disposal, the Laws of Heavenly Prayer, might as well not exist when used against this young Spiritual Revolution Realm cultivator!0
He turned around and fled, not daring to hesitate.0
“They say not to make the same mistake more than three times. Similarly, killing someone of your level won’t take more than three slashes.”0
As Su Yi’s calm voice rang out, a streak of sword qi shot forth.0
Several thousand feet away.0
The silver-robed man suddenly split down the midline. As both halves of his corpse plummeted from the sky, they crumbled into dust and dissipated.1
Destroyed, both body and soul!0
It had taken just three attacks, and it happened so quickly that it was unbelievable.0
Wang Chonglu had witnessed the entire battle from a distance, and he was left tongue-tied. Isn’t… Isn’t he a bit too fierce?0
That kid is obviously just in the Spiritual Revolution Realm, and he’s obviously just seventeen or eighteen, so why does he possess such heaven-defying power?0
Wang Chonglu was an established mid-stage Profound Serenity Emperor, but even in peak condition, he would have paid a heavy price to defeat such an opponent!0 142.93.60.102
In stark contrast, this young man’s flurry of attacks had destroyed his terrifying opponent. This was unquestionably astonishing.0
Just as Wang Chonglu fell into a daze, Su Yi drifted down and sat languidly at the head of the Unsinkable Boat. “Now can you answer my questions?”0
Wang Chonglu suddenly came to his senses.0
He took a deep breath, then stared intently at the young man in blue. A moment later, he said, “Then can you tell me your origins?”1
He couldn’t remain calm. He even felt a bit humiliated.0
Prior to this, he’d put on the airs of a lofty expert detached from worldly affairs, and he spoke to Su Yi like a senior addressing a junior. He called him “little fellow”, and his love of talent had even given him the urge to take Su Yi as a disciple. He’d even been so shameless as to express his wish that Su Yi could carry on his mantle.0
Now, Wang Chonglu suddenly realized how much of a clown he’d been!0
A wave of humiliation assailed his heart, and his expression filled with discomfort.0
“You have no room left to bargain,” laughed Su Yi. “I’ll count to three. If you don’t agree by then, I’ll toss you into the ocean. That won’t be enough to kill you, but if word gets out, it’ll deal a heavy blow to your reputation.”0
Wang Chonglu was instantly frantic. “You wouldn’t dare!”0
A Spiritual Revolution Realm cultivator dared threaten him? Did he really think the Thunderflame Demon Sovereign was some kind of herbivore?0
Su Yi ignored Wang Chonglu’s powerless threats and started counting. “One.”0
“You…” Wang Chonglu stretched out his finger and pointed at Su Yi, bristling with anger. He would never have guessed that the junior he’d tried to look out for would turn around and walk all over him.0
He was so angry that he almost coughed up blood.0
Or were they lured here by that mysterious Netherworld Vessel?0
Here, Wang Chonglu couldn’t help but interject, “I truly don’t understand it. None of this has anything to do with you, so why ask all these questions?”0
Su Yi laughed. “I’m curious.”0
“....” Wang Chonglu was an old fox. How could he possibly believe an explanation like that?0
He took a deep breath, then asked, “Then can you tell me just where you came from?”0
It was already his second time asking that same question.0
Now that he thought about it, it was rather unbelievable.0
He was the Thunderflame Demon Sovereign, and most of the world’s cultivators paled at the mere mention of his name. He spent his time wandering the Sea of Bitterness, and even its most wicked and vicious heretics and devils treated him with the utmost respect. They dared not show even the slightest negligence.0
Yet the young man in front of him didn’t seem to take him the least bit seriously!0
He was even bullying him!0
If word got out, Wang Chonglu feared no one would believe it.0
Su Yi shook his head. “It’s better not to tell you. It’d only scare you.”0
“????” Wang Chonglu felt a deep sense of humiliation. 0
Who in the Sea of Bitterness didn’t know of the Thunderflame Demon Sovereign’s reputation? Who in the Netherworld was ignorant of the Sea of Bitterness’s Seven Devils?0
Yet this young man seriously seemed to think his origins would scare him!0
Wang Chonglu was so angry that he almost burst into laughter. “Earlier, I admired you in vain! It seems I was simply blind!”0
Su Yi nodded in complete agreement. “Your eyesight really is quite lacking.”0
“....” Wang Chonglu didn’t know what to say to that. Is this kid even capable of conversing properly!?1
After a lengthy silence, Wang Chonglu forcefully suppressed his displeasure. “Even if you refuse to tell me your origins, surely you can at least tell me your name?”0
“Su Yi.”0
“You’re surnamed Su?” Wang Chonglu racked his brains for a while, but he couldn’t wrap his head around it.0
There were no ancient clans with that surname in the Netherworld!0
“I do actually know of an almighty expert by that surname. If he appeared in front of me, it would indeed be enough to scare me. Not just me, either. Any old-timer of the Netherworld who saw him would be scared,” sighed Wanng Chonglu.0
But then, he looked at Su Yi with disdain. “Of course, that person isn’t even remotely comparable to a Spiritual Revolution Realm kid like you. It would be no exaggeration to say that the gap between you and him is like the difference between the light of a firefly and the radiance of the full moon!”0
His words were full of admiration for that legendary expert surnamed Su, as well as disdain for the Su Yi seated in front of him.0
Su Yi couldn’t help but laugh. How could he fail to realize who Wang Chonglu was talking about?0
“But just now, I saved your life,” Su Yi said leisurely. 0
Wang Chonglu’s expression froze. He had nothing to say to that, and he suddenly didn’t want to chat any longer.0
He was worried he’d die of anger!0
Su Yi picked up the jade slip Wang Chonglu had given him earlier. “I said that with me here, you’d make it to the City of Eternal Night alive. This jade slip naturally isn’t needed, so you can keep it.”0
He flung it, and it landed in Wang Chonglu’s palm.0
Wang Chongly was dazed, and his cheeks heated up. He felt utterly ashamed.0
He suddenly recalled thinking that Su Yi was trying to comfort him earlier, and that Su Yi was speaking out of consideration for his feelings. He’d even felt moved!0
But now, it seemed that he’d misinterpreted the situation!0
