Supreme Warrior in the City-Chapter 2412: Outbreak of the Chaotic Battle

If that injured guy had torn space himself, he definitely wouldn’t have escaped. Because he was wounded—if he then burned all his power to tear space, Su Yang would absolutely have been able to cut him down on the spot.

So he burned his origin and tricked his own brother, having his brother tear open space, while he himself slipped away through that spatial rift.

Not only that, he even ambushed his own brother, forcing his brother to block Su Yang. That way, his own chances of escape got even bigger.

By the time that second person understood what was going on, it was already too late.

Grievously wounded and facing Su Yang alone, he naturally didn’t have the slightest ability to fight back. Before long, he was cut down by Su Yang and then devoured by Su Yang again.

As for that Saint Emperor who fled, Su Yang gave chase for a bit symbolically, but didn’t go too far. Because he was deliberately letting this man go.

This time, he not only wanted to throw the Heavenly War Alliance and the Demon Beast Clan into utter turmoil, he also wanted to drag the Guardian God in. He wanted these three forces to fall into a three‑way war.

Otherwise, even though Su Yang wasn’t in the Saint Emperor Realm yet, with his strength, these two Saint Emperors fundamentally couldn’t have escaped.

After cleaning everything up, Su Yang took the three Crystal Skulls and quickly left this region.

Su Yang left the transformed Long Qiu behind to gather information in this area. As for himself, he took the three Crystal Skulls and moved far away from this region.

Following the direction indicated on the map, Su Yang finally arrived at a desolate place. There had once been several Intermediate Worlds here, but they no longer existed. And this place was far from the Demon Beast Dynasty’s territory, making it the best place to hide.

Su Yang found an uninhabited planet and set up an Array outside it. Then he entered the planet and began a secluded Cultivation there.

Leaving one Saint Emperor’s Treasure House for the three Crystal Skulls, Su Yang took the remaining Treasure Houses for himself and started his seclusion.

The first thing Su Yang needed to do was to absorb all the power of those Saint Emperors.

This time he had devoured five Demon Beast Saint Emperors and two Human Race Saint Emperors, seven Saint Emperors in total. The power of so many Saint Emperors wasn’t easy to digest.

With the help of the Devouring Secret Technique, it was just a matter of taking some time; it wasn’t a big problem.

However, in order to raise his strength as much as possible while carefully sensing the aura of these Saint Emperors, Su Yang still slowed down the process. He spent a full half‑year to fully digest all the power of these seven Saint Emperors.

Next came those Saint Emperors’ Treasure Houses. Su Yang then spent another five years absorbing all the Spiritual Sources in those Treasure Houses.

Over such a long time, Su Yang’s strength did indeed increase a lot, but his realm still didn’t budge an inch.

Based on his previous experience, it really wasn’t easy for him to advance to Saint Emperor. But once he did step into the Saint Emperor Realm, his strength would probably be terrifying.

Moreover, the luckiest thing now was that Su Yang’s current Saint King Realm and Saint Emperor Realm both belonged to the same major realm. Although they were two minor realms, the gap in strength wasn’t too big, and he could still fight across realms.

This wasn’t like back when Su Yang was in the Nine Realms, where the Sub‑Saint Realm and the Saint Realm were completely different concepts. That was because the Sub‑Saint Realm and the Saint Realm belonged to different major realms. Crossing major realms meant an enormous gap.

So even though Su Yang hadn’t advanced to Saint Emperor yet, he was already very close; it didn’t affect much.

He went out and called the three Crystal Skulls up. The strength of these three fellows had also improved quite a bit. After all, they were big figures from the Ancient Times—so long as there was enough Spiritual Source, their improvement would never be slow.

Putting the three Crystal Skulls back into his Personal Space, Su Yang transformed into a Saint Venerable and hurried toward the Demon Beast Dynasty where Long Qiu was.

After taking Long Qiu out from the Demon Beast Dynasty, Su Yang carefully inquired about the current situation of the Great World.

Everything was just as Su Yang had planned. After the last incident, these three forces had truly fallen into chaos.

First was the conflict between the Heavenly War Alliance and the Demon Beasts. Because Su Yang had disguised himself as Saint Emperor Xuanming and brought three Human Race Saint Emperors to kill five Demon Beast Saint Emperors within the Demon Beast Clan, the Demon Beast Clan had been completely enraged. The Great Saint Emperor personally led a force to encircle and suppress the region held by the Heavenly War Alliance.

The Heavenly War Alliance had already splintered. At first they were still fighting internally, each wanting someone else to take the blame. So at the beginning they were taken down one by one by the Demon Beast Clan and lost quite a bit of strength.

Later they realized this wasn’t a question of who could take the blame at all. The Demon Beast Clan clearly intended to wipe them out to the last. So under such circumstances, these scattered forces had no choice but to set aside their past grudges and unite to resist the Demon Beast Clan.

The Heavenly War Alliance’s strength was still not weak, especially in this life‑and‑death situation where they had nowhere to retreat and could only fight the Demon Beast Clan head‑on. The two sides actually stalemated for a period of time.

The turning point came after that fleeing Human Race Saint Emperor was captured.

Both the Demon Beast Clan and the Heavenly War Alliance were searching for Saint Emperor Xuanming and those three Human Race Saint Emperors. That wounded Human Race Saint Emperor had managed to escape, but in the end still couldn’t slip through the Demon Beast Clan’s encirclement and was finally captured by them.

And this person had previously been duped by Su Yang and then hunted down by Su Yang, who had taken the form of Red Leaf God. So he was convinced that all of this was a conspiracy by the Guardian God, and he spilled all the "truth" he knew.

In this way, the whole matter was directly pushed onto the Guardian God’s side. The Guardian God, who had originally been watching from the sidelines, was dragged into the mess.

The Guardian God had indeed intended to use the Heavenly War Alliance to wear down the Demon Beast Clan’s strength, but hadn’t expected things to escalate to this degree.

At first, when the Demon Beast Clan came to them, they flatly denied everything and refused to admit the matter had anything to do with them. After all, the Guardian God truly didn’t know the inside story.

However, when they heard about Red Leaf God, they could no longer sit still. They immediately sent a large number of people to intervene and demanded that the Demon Beast Clan hand over that Human Race Saint Emperor.

The Demon Beast Clan naturally couldn’t hand this Human Race Saint Emperor over. On the contrary, once the Guardian God became involved, the Demon Beast Clan became even more certain that the Guardian God really was the one scheming behind the scenes.

Adding in the previous incident with Ling Feng God and the matter of the Guardian God hiring Green Cicada Saint King to ambush Jinghong Saint King, with so many old and new grudges piled together, the Demon Beast Clan shifted the spearhead that had originally been aimed at the Heavenly War Alliance and pointed it straight at the Guardian God instead.
