Thump —
But at that critical moment!
A beautiful figure flew in front of Su Yu. She slapped the old man's palm away with her bare hands!
Thud, thud —
The Second Elder and the Great Elder retreated a few steps at the same time.
"You dare attack me?" Surprise, shock, and confusion appeared in the Great Elder's old eyes.
The Second Elder would attack him, the Great Elder, for a brat who had nothing to do with him!
His ugly face was cold, his raspy voice sending shivers down people's spines. "I said before, only I can kill him! Whoever goes against me, don't blame me for being ruthless! "
The crowd could not understand why the Second Elder would do this for Su Yu?
Even going against the Great Elder!
The Great Elder's yellow eyes gradually turned cold. His authority was not to be challenged!
Whoosh —
A middle-aged figure flew between the two of them.
It was the Liuxian Faction Master!
The Second Elder was the third strongest in the faction. If she were to be injured or killed by the Great Elder, it would be difficult for him to find a strong helper to deal with the Great Elder in the future.
Thus, he naturally had to mediate.
As expected, the Great Elder's eyes were filled with fear. "Faction Master, are you going to attack me?"
"Haha, of course not. Both of you are pillars of the faction, how can we let this affect our relationship? Matters between the younger generation should be settled by the younger generation. We will judge fairly. "The Liuxian Faction Master smiled to ease the tension, redirecting the conflict to Su Yu and Cao Xuan.
The Great Elder glanced at the two of them, nodding his head. "Alright! That should be the case. But the Icy Pearl needs to be kept, and the two of them will fight it out! "
The Second Elder sneered. "A battle between a Dragon Realm and a Holy King, what is there to worry about? Rather than letting them fight, why not let me fight you? That would be more meaningful! "
The Liuxian Faction Master's gaze shifted, easing the tension. "Haha, how about this? Cao Xuan will suppress his cultivation level to the same level as Su Yu, and the two of them will fight.
"Qin Xianer is Su Yu's fiancée. However, she was deceived by the scoundrel Xu Rong. Cao Xuan and Elder Han Zhi were kept in the dark, causing a misunderstanding between both parties. We should not hurt our relationship because of such vile people. It would be best to settle the dispute peacefully with a battle."
Cao Xuan suppressing his cultivation level? The Second Elder frowned deeply!
Upon reaching the Dragon Realm, every move and technique possessed great power. Even if the opponent suppressed their cultivation base to the same level as Su Yu, Su Yu would not be able to defend against them!
Just as she was about to object, a warm hand grabbed her hand and shook it lightly.
When he turned around, he saw that it was Su Yu. He shook his head with a smile and thanked him in a low voice, "Thank you. This is already the best outcome. Let me face the rest by myself."
The Second Elder was slightly startled when she felt the palm that grabbed her jade-like hand. A trace of tenderness that was difficult to detect flashed through her fierce eyes.
Shortly after, he stared coldly at the Liuxian Faction Master, "Settle it in one battle? What was the solution? What would happen if Su Yu lost? Could it be that you want to atone for your sins with death? "
The Liuxian Faction Master glanced at Qin Xianer and said with a smile, "Since the conflict started because of Qin Xianer, she will naturally resolve it in the end."
"If Su Yu wins, Qin Xianer will be returned to Su Yu. Furthermore, this grudge will be written off. Regardless of whether it is the disciples or the elders, no one is allowed to cause trouble for Su Yu. We will all be witnesses. The Great Elder and the Second Elder are both respected people. I believe that they will not easily go back on their word. As for Cao Xuan, if he goes back on his word, the other elders can punish him on behalf of their teachers!"
The Second Elder slowly nodded. That was fair.
The Great Elder calmly nodded, "Alright! If Cao Xuan cannot even defeat Su Yu, I will not have the face to interfere. "
In other words, Cao Xuan could not possibly lose.
The Liuxian Faction Master continued, "Similarly, if Cao Xuan wins, today's wedding will continue. Cao Xuan will marry Qin Xianer. Regardless of whether it is Su Yu or the Second Elder, no one is allowed to interfere. How about that?"
Su Yu hesitated.
Cao Xuan freed himself from the Icy Pearl and laughed coldly, "I believe you understand that even if you have the same cultivation level as me, you will not be able to withstand a single blow. Is that why you are unwilling to agree? If that is the case, put down Qin Xianer and scram immediately! Trash does not have the right to be by her side! "
Su Yu ignored him, lowering his head to look at the trembling Xianer in his arms. His heart was filled with tenderness, "I am just unwilling to use the person I love as a wager!
Even if I know I will definitely win, I am unwilling … Because she is a heavy burden in my life that I cannot afford to gamble with. "
Hearing this, the crowd was silent.
Su Yu was deeply in love.
Even though he knew he would die today, he had still returned from the Icy Azure Lake to steal the bride!
They were truly a pair of true love.
Xianer's nervous face revealed a sweet smile. She blushed, revealing dimples of happiness, "Brother Su Yu! Go, I believe you will win, because I will only be Brother Su Yu's bride. "
"Xianer …" Su Yu's heart trembled. He slowly raised his eyes, glowing fiercely, "I accept the battle!"
The Liuxian Faction Master heaved a sigh of relief, "Good! But today is not a suitable day for a battle. This place is a mess, and some hidden dangers need to be dealt with as soon as possible. "
As he spoke, he glanced at Su Yu and the Icy Pearl beneath his feet.
Wherever Su Yu passed, many of the lower level disciples were frozen into ice sculptures, all of them in need of timely rescue.
The Great Elder creased his brows, but the urgent matter at hand was to deal with the Icy Pearl that was about to explode. If the hidden dangers were not dealt with, the inner sanctum disciples would be in danger.
"Good! There will be a small sparring competition tomorrow at the Law Enforcement Tribunal. The two of you can join and fight on the spot! "The Great Elder was in charge of the Law Enforcement Tribunal and knew the details.
Cao Xuan stared coldly at Su Yu, his lips forming a mocking smile, "Su Yu! Just watch as I, Cao Xuan, marry your woman! "
Su Yu's gaze was calm, "I hope you can still smile tomorrow!"
A shred of calmness and confidence blossomed from Su Yu's body, as if he was certain of victory.
The crowd began to clean up the mess.
The Icy Pearl was sent back to the Icy Azure Lake and sealed.
The frozen lower level disciples were saved in time.
The joyous wedding had come to an end.
The news spread like wildfire throughout both the Inner and Outer Sanctum Factions.
The King of the Fallen Star, an outer sanctum disciple, had the audacity to barge into the wedding of the disciple of the Supreme Elder and snatch the bride in front of everyone.
In the end, it even incited a showdown between the elders.
Once the news spread, it caused a commotion!
Su Yu had yet to enter the Inner Sanctum, but his name had already spread far and wide.
Su Yu and Qin Xianer were temporarily brought back to the courtyard of the Second Elder.
"Thank you, Second Elder, for your help." Su Yu bowed, not only for himself, but also for Li Guang.
Li Guang had escaped death because of the Second Elder. Su Yu still owed him a debt of gratitude.
The Second Elder fiercely shouted, "Who helped you? I only wanted to keep you alive so I could deal with you personally! "
Looking into her eyes, Su Yu smiled but did not speak. His eyes were filled with gratitude.
As if she had been seen through, the Second Elder averted her gaze, her ears trembling!
If she was still beautiful, she might have blushed.
She glared at Su Yu fiercely. She was both embarrassed and annoyed that Su Yu had seen through her, and she could no longer hide her helplessness. She snorted lightly. Let's see if you can still smile when you lose to Cao Xuan tomorrow and get your woman snatched away! "
"If Cao Xuan had really suppressed his cultivation level, I might not have lost!" Su Yu smiled, gently caressing Xianer's head.
For Xianer, even if he had to sacrifice his life, he had to win!
The Second Elder had fought for this opportunity, even if it meant falling out with the Great Elder.
Otherwise, he would have been killed by the Great Elder on the spot, and Xianer would have been forced to marry Cao Xuan in front of his corpse.
Fate will slide to the cruelest side.
As long as he defeated Cao Xuan, he and Xianer could sleep in peace.
What was once a hopeless situation had now become a chance to turn everything around.
All of this was thanks to the Second Elder!
The normal elders watched from the sidelines, unwilling to go against the Great Elder.
Even the Liuxian Faction Master did not do anything during the wedding.
In his eyes, Su Yu was just an ant, unworthy of him going against the Great Elder.
It was only after the Second Elder made her move that the Liuxian Faction Master had no choice but to step in to ease the tension, creating an opportunity to turn the situation around.
Seeing Su Yu's confidence, the Second Elder was surprised. Where did Su Yu's confidence come from?
His cultivation level had risen crazily in the three days at the Icy Azure Lake, from First Level Peak Holy King to Second Level Peak Holy King.
This was a huge breakthrough of an entire realm. It was nature-defying!
In the past three days, Su Yu had used the extreme cold energy of the Icy Azure Lake to improve his Sigh of Ice by leaps and bounds. Previously, he was still a distance away from Stage One Lower Class.
But with the help of the extreme cold energy, not only did he surpass Lower Class, he even broke through to Upper Class!
Not only did he have seventy percent more spirit energy in his body than others of the same cultivation level, his speed of absorbing spirit energy was also terrifying.
Thus, Su Yu was able to survive in the face of death, defying the laws of nature and crossing an entire realm!
It was also because he had absorbed the cold energy from the Icy Pearl that he had formed a connection with it, allowing him to control the cold energy within.
Thus, he was able to use the Icy Pearl as his trump card to kill Cao Xuan!
The Second Elder could roughly guess Su Yu's breakthrough process, but could not see where Su Yu's confidence came from.
"Hmph! It would be best if you were beaten to death tomorrow, your woman stolen by Cao Xuan! " The Second Elder raised her ugly face, fiercely grunting. She swaggered off, leaving behind a string of words. "You can rest here tonight. If you want anything, look for Mo Wu."
Qin Xianer was a little afraid of the Second Elder, lightly wrinkling her nose. "Brother Su Yu, that woman is so fierce!"
Su Yu rubbed her head, smiling. "That is not fierce, it is a mask to hide her soft heart."
Xian'er scratched her head, as if she understood, but not really.
What Su Yu did not know was that the Second Elder had left the hall and returned to the backyard.
Cough cough —
Her face suddenly turned pale, cold sweat breaking out on her forehead. She coughed violently, a trace of red and black, abnormal blood coming out of her mouth.
"Master! Medicine!!! " Hearing the commotion, an icy beauty flashed over, her expression serious. She immediately took out a bottle of elixirs, filled with black pills.
After swallowing one, the Second Elder's complexion slightly improved.
The icy beauty was the direct disciple of the Second Elder, Mo Wu!
She had once been ordered by her master to watch the Fallen Star Contest, to observe Su Yu.
Otherwise, as one of the Four Great Core Disciples of the faction, how could the level of the Fallen Star Contest catch her eye? Why would she have gone to watch the contest?
All of this was because her master had ordered her to observe Su Yu!
Seeing the Second Elder in discomfort, Mo Wu could not bear it and was extremely indignant. "Master! Why are you so good to him? "
"That day, you were clearly recovering from your injuries, but when you heard that an Outer Sanctum disciple named Su Yu asked for your guidance for a day, you immediately gave up on your recovery and personally rushed over."
"Today was even more so. You were clearly injured and could not fight with anyone. You had restrained yourself many times before this. Why did you make an exception for Su Yu and take a palm from the Great Elder? This caused the injuries in your body to act up! "
"Master, you do not know each other, why did you do this for him?" Mo Wu was indignant, but she was also deeply jealous.
What was so good about that disciple named Su Yu?
