Chapter 335 - Captivating Attention, I Remain Calm

Late at night, in the palace.

Emperor Zhou was also alarmed and said, "Since ten years ago, that old Daoist appeared out of thin air and has been accompanying Su Hongli. Until now, no one knows his name or origin. I never expected that he would cause such a commotion tonight."

In the blink of an eye, he effortlessly pressed Zhenyue King and the others to kneel, displaying his terrifying strength.

In the main hall, Hong Canshang said, "Your Majesty, I have warned you earlier that this person is extremely dangerous, far beyond ordinary land immortals. Tonight's events have proven that."

Pausing for a moment, he continued, "Fu Yunlang, the elder of the Donghua Sword Sect, is one of the three most powerful sword cultivators in Daqin. Even though he appeared tonight, he did not act rashly. This shows how formidable that old Daoist is."

Emperor Zhou furrowed his brow and said, "Could this be Su Hongli's confident secret weapon?"

Hong Canshang shook his head and said, "If it were a secret weapon, why would it be exposed tonight? Moreover, it's evident that the old Daoist is taking orders from Su Hongli, which means that Su Hongli himself is the truly fearsome one!"

Emperor Zhou took a deep breath and said, "Ten years ago, Su Hongli began secluding himself, while this old Daoist suddenly appeared. In these ten years, how much has Su Hongli's cultivation advanced?"

His voice grew serious.

Hong Canshang remained silent for a moment and then said, "Your Majesty, please be patient. The answers will soon be revealed."

...

"Who exactly is that old Daoist?"

Tonight, within the city of Yujing, countless important figures pondered this question.

It was only at this moment that people suddenly realized there was such a powerful presence hidden by Su Hongli's side. It was completely unexpected!

"I didn't think much of Su Hongli before. After all, if Su Yi could defeat formidable figures like You Tianhong, who had reached the Perfection of the Void Realm, how could he not handle Su Hongli?"

"But now it seems that I underestimated Su Hongli!"

Some elderly figures couldn't help but lament.

"If this father and son really fight each other, who would be stronger?"

"It would definitely be Su Yi. Recently, he has killed land immortals such as You Tianhong and Li Changning. Even Feng Liu was forced to retreat in a sorry state. Looking at the entire Da Zhou, who can match him?"

"Maybe not! Su Hongli has been in seclusion for ten years, and no one knows how powerful he has become. Moreover, if he wasn't strong enough, how could he have that mysterious old Daoist assisting him?"

On this night, with the appearance of the Daoist-robed old man, people suddenly realized that both Su Hongli and Su Yi, this father and son, were becoming increasingly mysterious and powerful!

This was undoubtedly incredible.

"On the fourth day of May, all the truths will be revealed!"

On this night, those influential figures scattered throughout the city of Yujing became even more eager for the events that would unfold on the fourth day of May.

...

On the third day of May.

The Dragon Guards of the Da Zhou royal family mobilized, and within a ten-mile radius centered around the Su family in Yujing City, all ordinary residents were evacuated.

Gunzhou, Tianyuan Academy.

Ning Xihe stood alone by the edge of the cloud sea on the mountaintop, whispering, "Tomorrow, this confrontation will finally take place. Unfortunately, I can't personally go to witness it..."

A hint of regret appeared on her delicately beautiful face, resembling that of a young girl.

Then, Ning Xihe looked towards the nearby Cha Jin, who sat there in a daze, her enchanting and ethereal beauty overshadowed by heavy thoughts.

Ning Xihe walked over and smiled to comfort her, saying, "Don't worry, there is no one in this world who can kill your young master."

Cha Jin snapped out of her daze, slightly embarrassed, and said, "I must have made a fool of myself in front of Lady Ning."

Ning Xihe didn't say anything more.

Worrying is because of caring and importance.

Deep within her own heart, how could she truly achieve genuine tranquility and composure?

Inside a bamboo pavilion.

Wen Lingxue sat by the window, her delicate and beautiful face exuding a tranquil demeanor, her jade hand supporting her chin. She murmured to herself, "Su Yi brother will definitely be fine..."

On the other side, Wen Lingzhao was making tea, her demeanor cold as snow, solitary as ice, but her heart was filled with mixed feelings.

She still remembered when he told her that he would eventually go to the Su family in Yujing City to personally resolve the marriage matter. She found it absurd and unbelievable at the time, and they had even argued fiercely about it.

Who would have thought that in just a few months, he would disrupt the world's situation and become the most dazzling young legend of present-day Da Zhou!

And now, he was about to step into the Su family to settle old scores!

Thinking about all of this, Wen Lingzhao couldn't help but mock herself in her heart. Wasn't it her own foolishness and lack of insight back then?

"Brother, Su brother will definitely be fine, right?"

Feng Xiaoran lifted her small face, her deep and beautiful eyes looking at her brother, Feng Xiaofeng.

"Of course!"

Feng Xiaofeng answered without hesitation.

...

On the fourth day of May.

Before dawn, many martial artists from all directions had already set off, heading towards the area where the Su family in Yujing City was located.

Among them were practitioners from the three countries of Da Zhou, Da Wei, and Da Qin.

They were afraid of arriving too late and missing out on the best viewing spots.

"This battle has attracted the attention of many powerful individuals. It can be considered a globally anticipated event, a grand occasion that hasn't been seen in nearly a hundred years."

Qing Qin murmured softly.

She accompanied her master, Huo Song, by his side.

Recently, she had been exposed to a lot of information, making it clear to her that the battle about to unfold today had already attracted the attention of the cultivation forces of Da Zhou, Da Wei, and Da Qin!

However, she still couldn't fully imagine that one of the main characters in this battle would be Su Yi...

She still remembered that two or three months ago, when they met in Yunhe County, that young man had not yet reached the Martial Grandmaster realm.

But now, he had already gained a resounding reputation that shook the world!

"I just hope that Young Master Su can win..." Chang Guke said in a deep voice.

"Hmph!"

Huo Song, on the side, showed a hint of displeasure. "I know Su Yi is your benefactor, but don't forget, he is also an enemy of our Hidden Dragon Sword Sect."

Chang Guke fell silent immediately, his face showing a bitter struggle.

...

"Master, do you think Young Master Su can win this battle?" Lan Suo couldn't help but ask as they were on their way to the Su family.

"It's hard to say," Master Yun Lang pondered and said, "There are too many variables in this battle, and I'm afraid no one can predict who will win or lose."

Lan Suo was taken aback for a moment and whispered, "But I have great confidence in Young Master Su."

Master Yun Lang smiled and said, "He saved your life, so naturally, you have faith in him. However, when the real battle begins, you mustn't act impulsively. The current Yujing City is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. Until Su Yi and the Su family have truly determined the outcome, remember not to reveal yourselves prematurely. Otherwise, you might be targeted by Su Yi's enemies. In that case, even if we want to help Su Yi secretly, we will be hindered."

Lan Suo nodded with excitement and said, "Master, I knew you wouldn't just stand by!"

...

If one were to overlook from the sky.

It would be clear to see that in the surrounding area centered around the Su family in Yujing City, numerous figures were converging from all directions.

They were densely packed, like a surging tide.

However, those who dared to approach the forefront were all influential figures in the world.

Those Martial Grandmasters could only stand aside.

"Look, Elder Jihe from Shanglin Temple is here!"

A cry of surprise echoed in the field.

They saw an old monk in a monk's robe, with a kind face and compassionate eyes, leading many distinguished figures from the delegation of Da Qin, making a grand entrance into the field.

It immediately attracted countless gazes.

And shortly after Jihe and the others appeared, Wei Yuanzong's Supreme Elder Yun Zhongqi, dressed in a red robe with white hair and beard, arrived with a group of experts from the Wei delegation.

Yun Zhongqi held a Daoist seal in one hand and a dusting whisk in the other, exuding a mighty aura. The appearance of their group also caused a commotion in the field.

In ordinary circumstances, whether it was Jihe or Yun Zhongqi, wherever they went, they would be the focus of attention.

However, near the Su family today, there were equally prominent figures who could stand shoulder to shoulder with them, making it impossible for them to steal the limelight.

In the following time, the entourage of the Hidden Dragon Sword Sect, including Fengliu and Master Huosong, arrived one after another.

Ge Changling, the Sea Swallowing King who had not been seen in the world for many years, arrived alone in a floating manner.

When Yushi Chantian, clad in white and carrying a sword, with picturesque features, arrived, she still captivated countless gazes, just like she did on the peak of Jiuzhi Mountain.

The arrival of Elder Yun Lang, from the Donghua Sword Sect, also caused a sensation in the field.

These scenes left the martial artists in the field bewildered.

It was as if they were living in a mythological era, with legendary immortals appearing one after another, elusive and mysterious!

This was undoubtedly an unprecedented grand event.

As the first rays of dawn broke through the darkness above Yujing City, the vicinity of the Su family, where they were stationed, was already bustling with people and filled with formidable experts!

Inside the Su family.

You Qingzhi and Su Bonong anxiously waited outside Qingwu Courtyard, their hearts both apprehensive and excited.

Not far from them, the important figures of the Su family were also waiting early, each with complex emotions.

Today, the Su family was the center of attention in the world.

But at the same time, the upcoming battle would also determine the life and death of the Su family!

Inside Qingwu Courtyard.

Su Hongli changed into a black robe, his long hair tied up in a topknot. His tall figure bathed in the morning light, resembling a towering solitary mountain peak, giving off an unshakable aura.

He looked up at the sky and said, "During these ten years of seclusion, I have been waiting for the arrival of a brilliant era, disdaining to display my strength in this world. But today, because of that wretched child, I have no choice but to reveal my skills ahead of time."

Then, he withdrew his gaze and smiled. "So be it. Today, let the people of this world witness the abilities of Su Hongli."

Su Hongli walked out of the courtyard with his hands behind his back.

The old man in Daoist robes followed closely behind.

As the dawn broke.

Su Yi went about his day as usual, washing up, practicing cultivation, and having meals.

Everything was no different from before, without a trace of influence from the impending confrontation with the Su family.

Having experienced countless trials and tribulations, it felt as refreshing as a gentle breeze.

In the face of the imminent great battle, I remain calm and composed.

When Su Yi stepped out of the Pine Breeze Courtyard, Fang Yuan was already waiting there with a horse-drawn carriage.

Su Yi got into the carriage and casually instructed, "Take me to the Su family, and then you can return and prepare a pot of warm wine. Don't forget to buy some grilled bream."

Fang Yuan was momentarily stunned.

Those seemingly ordinary words, for some reason, deeply shook his mind and soul!

In the silence, thunder roared.
