Situation Takes a Sudden Turn

Alright, Grand Commander Jiang, rest assured. With Lord Su here, we will definitely give it our all.

With his words, dozens of figures swiftly moved out, following the person in front. In the blink of an eye, a new battle erupted.

The Demonic Beasts, who had been extremely arrogant moments ago, were now meek and timid, hiding behind the Divine Blade Sect, afraid to show their faces.

Facing the charging Demon Suppression Division, the disciples of the Divine Blade Sect felt extremely conflicted. As fellow humans, Su Ye's god-like figure deeply shocked them.

But now, they had long since rebelled against Great Xia. Facing Su Ye's overwhelming power, they were filled with fear. Whether their Sect Master won or lost seemed irrelevant to them.

Even if they won, how many of them could survive Su Ye?

"Bang"

Su Ye casually blasted away a Divine Blade Sect disciple blocking his path, his momentum unbroken as he charged towards the rear of the crowd. The Demonic Beasts were right in front of him.

The surrounding Divine Blade Sect disciples held no interest for him whatsoever.

Seeing the familiar figure charging towards them, the Divine Blade Sect members instinctively cleared a path for him. No one tried to stop him, and many of the young men and women among them looked on with admiration.

A female disciple from the Divine Martial Sect's eyes sparkled, and she couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice.

"He's the one who displayed such might just now. I didn't expect him to be so handsome."

Another female disciple rolled her eyes at her and quietly reminded her, "What time is it? And you're still daydreaming."

Even so, her gaze was also filled with admiration. She seemed to recall something unspeakable, causing her pretty face to flush slightly.

The sounds of fighting and roaring from all around rose and fell, yet they seemed strangely out of place. The minds of those engaged in fierce combat had long been captivated by that tall, upright figure.

Everyone's expressions varied. Only the Demon Suppression Division side looked excited. Amidst the Divine Blade Sect crowd, an elder pondered, then seemed to understand the current situation.

As Su Ye moved at extreme speed, his figure paused slightly. An ancient voice echoed in his mind.

"I am an elder of the Divine Blade Sect, Jiang Hong. Greetings, Lord Su."

"My Lord, to be so young and already have one foot in the Core Formation stage is truly admirable to this old man."

"I implore you, Lord Su, to spare us and allow a few of my unworthy disciples to leave."

As Jiang Hong transmitted his message, he quickly glanced around and slowly placed the wooden box on his back onto the ground.

"My Lord, this is one of the treasures left by our Divine Blade Sect's founding ancestor. I hope you will accept it."

Su Ye remained impassive, subtly shifting his position and approaching the wooden box. As he quickly took the box, he secretly opened it for a quick glance.

Inside, a black long saber lay quietly. The saber was as black as ink, very similar to the Tang saber from his previous life, only longer and wider.

Su Ye's expression remained unchanged upon seeing this, but he thought to himself that this was an unexpected gain. He then nodded slightly and continued to charge towards the Demonic Beasts.

Jiang Hong's expression eased slightly upon seeing this. A very familiar voice suddenly echoed in his mind.

"Jiang Hong, how dare you privately give away the ancestor's relic? Furthermore, this person is clearly heading for those Demonic Beasts. Wouldn't that be a needless loss of a sect treasure?"

"Protector Wei, this young man's talent is astonishing. To reach half-step Core Formation at such a young age, his future is limitless. Befriending him before he fully matures will bring nothing but benefits."

Jiang Hong then added, "With this young man interfering today, an unexpected variable has arisen."

"This calamity will likely be difficult to resolve. Who knows when the Demon Suppression Division's reinforcements will arrive."

"For now, seeking stability is best. Sending out more excellent seedlings will allow our Divine Blade Sect's lineage to continue."

"This saber will surely not be kept today. It's better to forge a good relationship. Protector Wei, do you think I am being overly cautious now?"

Protector Wei pondered for a moment. "Elder Jiang, why be so pessimistic? Perhaps the Sect Master and the others can quickly deal with Ye Haichuan."

"Perhaps there are other variables. At this point, preparing in advance is the best course of action."

Elder Jiang shook his head with a wry smile.

"I will cover your retreat. Brother Wei, hurry and go."

"Elder Jiang, take care."

Protector Wei spoke, then leaped up and led a few young men and women, quickly retreating.

Su Ye passed through the defensive formation formed by the Divine Blade Sect disciples and his gaze fell upon the group of Demonic Beasts several hundred meters away.

"These good-for-nothings from the Divine Blade Sect all deserve to die!" Yuan Xiao roared, stomping heavily on the ground.

"Brothers, he's here! Prepare yourselves!"

The group of Demonic Beasts, under Yuan Xiao's command, slowly formed a defensive formation. Their eyes were fixed on the approaching figure, and they occasionally let out threatening roars.

"Kid, where exactly did you come from? I've never heard of a prominent figure like you in the Demon Suppression Division." Yuan Xiao's gaze was grim as he looked at the newcomer.

Su Ye's gaze was cold, and he did not respond. The soil beneath his feet instantly churned, and he shot out like an arrow released from a bow.

Yuan Xiao's eyes twitched. He quickly said, "Kid, Lord Ape Lord can deal with Old Ghost Wang in less than a moment."

"Why are you entangled with us here? Why don't you retreat quickly, lest you lose your life?"

Su Ye did not use his Blood Fiend power. Relying solely on his physical body and True Qi, he instantly crossed several hundred meters.

He completely disregarded Yuan Xiao's threat. Even if what he said was true.

He could quickly add points to increase his strength, then transform into the Blood Fiend State to fight that Ape Lord. Who knew, he might even be able to defeat and kill him.

The temptation of these Demonic Beasts before him was too great. They were like scantily clad beauties. If he were to give up now due to the Ape Demon's threat, what was the point of practicing martial arts? He might as well go home and farm.

The Vast Sea True Intent Fist he had secretly improved was for this very moment. This fist technique complemented the Mountain Sea True Intent Scroll Su Ye was cultivating.

His fist struck like a surging sea, continuous and unending. In mid-air, it seemed to stir up monstrous waves, and a dark fist shadow roared forth.

"Boom!"

The explosion was like thunder, shaking the ground violently. Several massive figures desperately blocked the surging fist shadow.

Yuan Xiao transformed into a twenty-foot-tall giant ape, his muscles bulging, his arms trembling as he roared with all his might.

"This brat's got something wrong with him. His strength now is vastly different from before. Brothers, attack quickly!"

The other massive figures, who were blocking the fist shadow alongside the giant ape, roared and urged each other on.

"This person must have used a Secret Technique earlier. Right now, he's at most at the late stage of Aperture Opening."

"Let's all rush him together. He's bound to die."

"Roar, roar."

As the words fell, over a dozen Demonic Beasts roared and charged, revealing their true forms. The ground trembled violently, dust billowed, and their presence was terrifying.

Su Ye narrowed his eyes. Demonic Beasts at the Aperture Opening realm could transform into human form. The fact that these more than ten Demonic Beasts had all revealed themselves made his heart sink slightly.

These Demonic Beasts were all at the Aperture Opening realm. He felt a chill in his heart. Without using his Blood Fiend power, and in his current state, it would be impossible to kill so many Demonic Beasts in a single blow.

Facing the charging horde of Demonic Beasts, Su Ye was calm and fearless. His greatest strength wasn't his internal martial arts, but his physical body, which had been tempered numerous times.

"It'll just take a little more effort."

The members of the Demon Suppression Division fighting in the distance couldn't help but their pupils contracted. They had clearly heard what the Demonic Beasts said.

They vividly remembered Su Ye's feat of killing dozens of Demonic Beasts with a single palm strike. Seeing this scene now, they found it hard to accept.

If Su Ye was truly this powerful only by using a Secret Technique, wouldn't they be in danger tonight? After all, Secret Techniques always came with a price, some even requiring a life as payment.

A young man anxiously looked at Jiang Qingyun. "Lord, if what these Demonic Beasts say is true, how should we respond?"
