Chapter 2169: Chapter 2169
The fierce man's words immediately attracted everyone's attention.
During the previous melee, Su Yang and his group constantly drank Spirit Liquid Essence to replenish their strength, which allowed them to persist in the fierce battle for such a long time.
At that time, everyone indeed noticed the bottles in their hands. Back then, people were desperately trying to snatch the bottles from them.
However, the appearance of Ye Sword Saint frightened everyone, leaving them too scared to think about this matter any longer.
Now, having decided to eliminate Su Yang and his group again, the crowd recalled those bottles.
Getting their hands on the contents of those bottles would be a huge gain. So, with this in mind, they were determined to kill Su Yang and his group.
"But the Endless Starry Sky is so vast, where can we find them?" someone suddenly asked. The others also looked at the fierce man, as finding someone in the Endless Starry Sky is the hardest.
The fierce man smiled coldly and said, "During the earlier fight, my blood dripped onto that kid named Su Yang. I can sense the direction of my blood. No matter where they run, the result will be the same: we can find them. The most crucial thing now is to wait for Ye Sword Saint to enter the Fifth Region again!"
"In that case, they won't be able to escape even if they had wings!" A man laughed loudly.
Everyone laughed excitedly, already aware from the previous skirmish. Although Su Yang's group wasn't weak, they definitely weren't a match for them. With a well-thought-out plan, they could wipe out Su Yang and his group completely!
On the other side, after chatting with Su Yang and his group for a while, Ye Sword Saint was also about to leave.
While in the Fifth Region, he was pursuing a Sub-Saint Beast. This Sub-Saint Beast was similar to a fierce beast among the Sub-Saints, very powerful, and of course, extremely valuable.
Ye Sword Saint had sent his longsword back first to trap that Sub-Saint Beast.
Now that the matters with Su Yang's group were settled, he needed to return to slay that Sub-Saint Beast.
"You should leave as soon as possible!" Ye Sword Saint said. "The Endless Starry Sky is extremely dangerous. If you remain here, the situation is unpredictable. There were too many of them earlier. While I'm here, they might not dare to deal with you. But once I leave, it'll be different. Moreover, those people who apologized before you may not have done so genuinely and might come back for revenge. Thus, staying in the Endless Starry Sky is truly dangerous for you!"
Su Yang nodded, having experienced the dangers of the Endless Starry Sky through this ordeal.
"We were just planning to head back!" Su Yang said. "However, danger is normal. Without danger, what would be the point of training in the Endless Starry Sky? Strength gained without combat can only be considered a state, not real combat power!"
Ye Sword Saint looked at Su Yang approvingly and nodded, "You resemble your father very much. But unfortunately, for the Human Clan, the dangers of combat are too high. If you truly survive through battles, your future achievements will be limitless!"
Su Yang thought of his father, Su Zhan, wondering if he could match his father's level after so many years of cultivation.
Seemingly perceiving Su Yang's thoughts, Ye Sword Saint said softly, "Your current strength is slightly inferior to your father's back then. However, that was your father back then. If your father could cultivate to this day, his achievements wouldn't be any less than mine!"
Su Yang was taken aback. Ye Sword Saint was already a Sub-Saint. For him to say such things, what kind of genius was his father, Su Zhan?
Ye Sword Saint didn't say much more. He glanced at Su Yang and said, "By the way, you'd better handle that blood on you quickly. The one you fought before is a descendant of the Blood Demon King. The Blood Demon King specializes in tracking others with blood, and it works even in the Endless Starry Sky. With that blood on you, he can sense your location!"
"Is that possible?" Su Yang was stunned, something he hadn't expected.
"In the Nine Realms, there are many capable and strange creatures, and some peculiar secret techniques are normal." Ye Sword Saint said, "However, in the Nine Realms, the only eternal thing is your strength. When your strength is enough, any strange secret technique is hollow before you. Which of the Nine Realms Saints didn't break ten thousand techniques with one? The Nine Realms secret techniques are countless, but before a Nine Realms Saint, they can all be dismissed with one finger!"
Su Yang was shocked. Breaking with one finger sounds simple, but achieving it is as difficult as reaching the sky.
The Nine Realms Saints are indeed extraordinary!
Ye Sword Saint didn't stay any longer and left after a few more words. He had to continue pursuing the Sub-Saint Beast.
Left behind, Su Yang's group exchanged glances. The Second City Lord asked quietly, "Do we still need to advance further?"
"No need!" Su Yang shook his head directly, contemplating for a moment. "It seems it's time for vengeance!"
"Vengeance?" The group was puzzled, unsure of what Su Yang meant.
Su Yang smiled faintly and said softly, "I hope those people are smart enough not to come after us!"
The group looked at each other, and Beigong War God asked quietly, "Are you referring to that group from earlier?"
Su Yang nodded, and Beigong War God frowned, "That group is quite strong. If they really chase after us again, it could be troublesome!"
"What's the trouble? Don't forget, we have a trap!" Su Yang smiled. "It's time for that trap to be put to use!"
The group froze for a moment and then remembered the trap Su Yang mentioned, and they all laughed.
As Su Yang said, if that group really chased after them, it would indeed be time for their revenge!
"Let's go. We'll head over there first. I estimate they'll catch up in less than half a month!" Su Yang laughed.
Everyone nodded, following Su Yang as they began to retreat.
The group of fierce men lingered near the Third Region. Soon, they received word that Ye Sword Saint had returned to the Fifth Region to pursue a Sub-Saint Beast.
This news shocked them greatly.
A Sub-Saint Beast is exceedingly rare. Only two have been caught in the Nine Realms over the years. The first was taken by a Saint, and the second was captured by the Saint from the Demon Clan just before becoming a Saint.
Now, Ye Sword Saint was about to capture the third Sub-Saint Beast. No wonder the Nine Realms Saints said Ye Sword Saint was the most hopeful to become a Saint. Looking at it now, it indeed seems so!
