Chapter 2689: Chapter 2689: Turning the Tables
"What did you say!" The Immortal Venerable was furious. Su Yang calling him an old geezer was simply an insult.
Su Yang replied coldly, "And besides, this person was sent by you, so you also have to take some responsibility. Did you teach him to step on my head as soon as he arrived? Although I, Su Yang, am not a Primordial Heavenly Warrior, for the Human Clan, I have made countless sacrifices and endured countless hardships. The reshaping of reincarnation was solely my arrangement and promotion. It was also under my personal arrangement and guidance that the Primordial Heavenly Warriors could return. You may not need to thank me, but crossing the river and dismantling the bridge immediately, huh, doesn’t that sound rather unpleasant?"
The Immortal Venerable’s face turned colder, and he said in a deep voice, "A junior’s unintentional mistake, and yet you are so unforgiving. Su Alliance Leader, your leadership is truly unqualified!"
"Ha, a junior? As if I’m not a junior myself!" Su Yang scoffed. "Furthermore, you keep referring to me as the Alliance Leader, but do you actually treat me as one? I returned from the outside, burdened with the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet, almost losing my life outside, sacrificing everything for the Human Clan. After coming back, did any of you come to pay respects to me? Not to mention what I have done for the Human Clan, just the fact that I reshaped reincarnation and brought you all back, shouldn’t you at least thank me? Instead, you sent such a person specifically to disgust me. When I try to settle it, you come out to stop me? If you want to put it that way, you are from the Ancient Times, and I am from this era, so I am also a junior. Don’t you feel embarrassed as a senior to interfere in our affairs?"
"You..." The Immortal Venerable was about to speak when suddenly, a loud laugh echoed from the distant sky: "Su Alliance Leader is right. You truly think your little schemes can deceive everyone? Su Alliance Leader is an exceptional figure, with the Heaven-Slaying Blade in hand, equivalent to the heir of the Heaven Slayer. What does your disciple count for, daring to be so unruly before Su Alliance Leader, simply disgraceful!"
The speaker was a man enveloped in black aura, arriving swiftly at the scene.
"Nine-headed Demon Yuan!" The Immortal Venerable’s face turned cold, "This matter has nothing to do with you!"
Su Yang was startled; this man was indeed the Nine-headed Demon Yuan, another leading figure among the Ancient Heaven Warriors?
"Your disrespect to Su Alliance Leader makes it my concern!" With that, Nine-headed Demon Yuan struck a blow, shattering the Immortal Venerable.
This Immortal Venerable was merely a manifestation of power, not the Immortal Venerable himself, thus naturally no match for Nine-headed Demon Yuan.
Nine-headed Demon Yuan waved again, seizing the Divine Artifact from the youth below, causing him to collapse utterly unprotected.
"Su Alliance Leader, this worthless one is left to you for disposal!" Nine-headed Demon Yuan chuckled.
Su Yang ignored the youth, only looking at Nine-headed Demon Yuan in the sky: "Are you here to invite me to a banquet as well?"
"Hahaha..." Nine-headed Demon Yuan laughed heartily: "That’s right, upon hearing of Su Alliance Leader’s return, I immediately arranged a feast to welcome you. Su Alliance Leader reshaped reincarnation, which is a lifesaver for us, so we all wish to thank you in person. To show sincerity, I have come personally to invite you!"
Su Yang stared at Nine-headed Demon Yuan for a while, then said in a deep voice: "No need for a banquet, in three days, I will set up a feast here. By then, I kindly ask Nine-headed senior to attend in person!"
Nine-headed Demon Yuan was taken aback; why was Su Yang taking the initiative to invite them? Moreover, it seemed he was not only inviting him, what was Su Yang up to?
"Su Alliance Leader, since your feast is in three days, why not first come to my place to gather?" Nine-headed Demon Yuan suggested.
"No need!" Su Yang refused decisively.
Nine-headed Demon Yuan’s face turned slightly cold, but upon seeing the Heaven-Slaying Blade in Su Yang’s hand, he ultimately restored his calm expression.
"Su Alliance Leader, this is somewhat disrespectful," Nine-headed Demon Yuan said leisurely.
"I’ve just returned from the outside, with plenty of unfinished matters on my end. Nine-headed senior, please don’t make things difficult!" Su Yang shook the Heaven-Slaying Blade in his hand: "Not to mention, I at least need to make a trip to the Demon Abyss!"
Nine-headed Demon Yuan immediately fell silent; although currently formidable, compared to the Heaven Slayer, he knew he was nothing. If Su Yang was going to the Demon Abyss to meet the Heaven Slayer, he truly wouldn’t dare utter a word.
Moreover, it seemed Su Yang intended to use the Heaven Slayer’s name to control the situation.
Nine-headed Demon Yuan was silently calculating this matter in his heart, while outwardly he smiled and cupped his hands: "In that case, I shall certainly arrive on time in three days!"
"Thank you for your understanding, Nine-headed senior!" Su Yang smiled and cupped his hands.
As Nine-headed Demon Yuan turned to leave, Su Yang frowned deeply. The situation within the World Melting Furnace was more severe than he had imagined.
Not long after, the three Primordial individuals and the Eternal Divine Emperor also sent people to invite him, but they were all refused by Su Yang.
Of course, those who came were also not very polite. However, none were as arrogant as the disciple of the Immortal Venerable, so there were no further conflicts afterward.
Nonetheless, the incident of Su Yang making a move today had undoubtedly spread. The six factions would certainly know about it and likely plan strategies to deal with Su Yang in the shadows.
"Brother Su, you... you shouldn’t have acted so hastily..." Jiang Zi’er said beside him: "Now the six factions surely know what you intend to do, and they will certainly find ways to deal with you first."
Su Yang remained calm: "Zi’er, do you think I can handle these six factions with just my own strength?"
Jiang Zi’er shook her head, and Su Yang said softly: "This matter, truthfully, no matter how I handle it, the result would be almost the same. So, I can only make one last attempt!"
"One last attempt?" Jiang Zi’er was puzzled, not understanding what Su Yang meant.
"To make these people unite, there must be a Strongest to make them all submit obediently!" Su Yang spoke softly: "Besides this method, there is no other way!"
"But those Strongest haven’t returned yet!" Jiang Zi’er paused and said: "Moreover, the three Primordial factions may not submit so easily."
"At least it has to be tried!" Su Yang said softly: "Currently, the only Strongest I can invoke is the Heaven Slayer."
"You intend to use the Heaven Slayer to make them submit?" Jiang Zi’er was stunned: "Brother Su, these people are all Primordial Heavenly Warriors, they’ve all returned. You only have the illusion of the Heaven Slayer, which is only akin to a fraction of the Heaven Slayer, it may not make them submit!"
"Even so, it has to be tried!" Su Yang said in a deep voice, in fact, what he had now was not only the illusion of the Heaven Slayer but also the illusion of the Buddha Venerable. Could the combination of these two make these Heavenly Warriors submit?
