Supreme Warrior in the City-Chapter 2405: That’s Right, I Did It

Although the three Saint Emperors didn’t know why the Saint Emperor Xuanming came looking for them, since he was here, of course, they wouldn’t let him leave.

It needed to be realized that the Demon Beast Clan and the Heavenly War Alliance were both searching everywhere for the Saint Emperor Xuanming.

If these three could capture the Saint Emperor Xuanming, then the other factions within the Heavenly War Alliance would certainly have to pay a hefty price to exchange for him.

This was like a pie falling from the sky, landing right on their heads. Although they hadn’t intended to get involved in this matter, since the pie was right here, how could they miss it?

As for what exactly the Saint Emperor Xuanming had done back then, or what had happened over the past few years, these mattered little to them. As long as they kept the Saint Emperor Xuanming, everything else could be left to those big powers to investigate. They weren’t in a position to look into such things anyway.

Su Yang, however, seemed completely unfazed by their actions, calmly walking into the circle where they surrounded him, and smiled, "My three friends, let’s not beat around the bush. I came here today to offer you a deal!"

"A deal?" The three Saint Emperors exchanged glances, all extremely surprised. In the past, they hadn’t been particularly familiar with the Saint Emperor Xuanming; they had merely met a few times. If he really had something good to offer, it shouldn’t be them he was looking for.

Moreover, given the Saint Emperor Xuanming’s current situation—with the Demon Beast Clan and the Heavenly War Alliance searching for him—how could he possibly offer anything to others? Wasn’t that nonsense?

The leading Saint Emperor chuckled softly, "Brother Xuanming is truly a friend, not forgetting us even when there’s something to gain? Tsk tsk, I’d love to hear what benefits Brother Xuanming plans to offer us?"

The other two Saint Emperors also looked at Su Yang mockingly.

With a calm expression, Su Yang slowly said, "They say I robbed the Yingming Saint Emperor’s Treasure House, do you three believe such a thing?"

The three Saint Emperors were stunned, not understanding what Su Yang meant.

The leading Saint Emperor pondered for a moment, then said softly, "There’s no solid evidence, it’s unfair to frame Brother Xuanming so easily..."

"Heh heh..." Su Yang chuckled lightly, his gaze sweeping over the three, suddenly stating, "To tell you the truth, they are correct, I indeed robbed the Yingming Saint Emperor’s Treasure House!"

As soon as these words were spoken, all three were shocked, their eyes wide as they stared at Su Yang.

This was something the Heavenly War Alliance never believed the Saint Emperor Xuanming would do. Because the Heavenly War Alliance never dared to provoke the Demon Beast Clan. Moreover, the Saint Emperor Xuanming wasn’t particularly strong and acted very cautiously, never daring to do such a thing. So, they had always suspected that it was someone framing the Saint Emperor Xuanming.

Who could have thought that this was actually done by the Saint Emperor Xuanming!

Since the Saint Emperor Xuanming admitted it himself, what more was there to say?

"You... how could you... do such a thing?" the leading Saint Emperor exclaimed.

"Why not?" Su Yang retorted, casting a glance at him and sneering, "Do you know how many Spiritual Sources there are in the Yingming Saint Emperor’s Treasure House?"

The three shook their heads, and Su Yang sneered, "Of course you don’t know. In the Yingming Saint Emperor’s Treasure House is the entire military fund the Demon Beast Clan used for pursuing the Ling Feng God. Combined, the Spiritual Sources there are equivalent to the reserves of a hundred or two hundred Saint Emperors!"

All three simultaneously widened their eyes; the reserves of the Demon Beast Saint Emperor were astronomical. A stash equivalent to a hundred or two hundred Saint Emperors, how much more could that be?

With so many Spiritual Sources in mind, the three of them became deeply tempted. If they could seize so many Spiritual Sources and had enough time to cultivate, their achievements would definitely not be lower than those big figures in the Heavenly War Alliance. Perhaps they themselves might become big figures. Who wouldn’t be reluctant to miss such a chance?

Taking a deep breath, the leading Saint Emperor said solemnly, "Brother Xuanming, though there are plenty of Spiritual Sources, don’t forget, they are the Demon Beast Clan’s military fund, and robbing these Spiritual Sources amounts to declaring war on the Demon Beast Clan. Every member of the Demon Beast Clan will come to hunt you down. Seizing the sources is good, but the question is, can you live to use them?"

Su Yang sneered, "I’ve had these Spiritual Sources for years, and the Heavenly War Alliance has been broken up. Has the Demon Beast Clan ever found me?"

The three were speechless; his point was valid. The Saint Emperor Xuanming truly hid himself well over those years. The Demon Beast Clan, spread across the Great World, hadn’t been able to find him, something not many could manage.

"But haven’t you come out now?" the tall Saint Emperor on the left suddenly asked, "Can’t you hide anymore under the Demon Beast Clan’s pursuit, forcing you to come out? You took quite a lot of Spiritual Sources, but how many years will it take to use them all? And how long can you hide? Though the Great World is vast, the Demon Beast Clan spreads throughout it. Where can you possibly hide?"

"You’re right, the Demon Beast Clan spreads across the entire Great World, it truly isn’t easy to hide from them!" Su Yang said softly, "But there’s one place the Demon Beast Clan will never find for any reason!"

"Where?" the three asked in unison.

Su Yang smiled faintly, "The Guardian Land!"

"What!?" The three widened their eyes, full of confusion. The Guardian Land was where the Guardian God resided, which the Demon Beast Clan couldn’t go, indeed a place they couldn’t find.

But the problem is, what’s the point of that? Could you possibly hide in the Guardian Land?

"My three friends, do you really think I took action against the Yingming Dynasty merely for these Spiritual Sources?" Su Yang smiled faintly once again. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

The three Saint Emperors were again stunned. What did he mean by this? If not for the Spiritual Sources, then what?

Looking at the three Saint Emperors, Su Yang said with a smile, "My three friends, let me tell you this. Given the Demon Beast Clan’s strength, do you think I could escape after taking these Spiritual Sources? Even if I could escape, how long could I stay hidden?"

The three Saint Emperors exchanged looks. This was a question that strong men had previously predicted. With the massive numbers of the Demon Beast Clan, spread throughout the Great World, if the Saint Emperor Xuanming had really taken these Spiritual Sources, it was estimated that it wouldn’t take a year for them to find him. If they couldn’t, then it was serious, implying the Saint Emperor Xuanming had probably met a grim fate.

This event had lasted many decades without the Demon Beast Clan finding the Saint Emperor Xuanming, leading many to think he was likely dead.

If it weren’t for the sudden appearance of the Saint Emperor Xuanming’s two disciples, people might have given up searching for him altogether.
