A slight uneasiness lingered in his heart.
Putong —
What made him feel slightly relieved was that Su Yu finally stopped dawdling and jumped into the lake.
A smile tugged at the corner of Prince Yun's mouth as he asked Yongye Chuxue, "Who do you think will win, Princess?"
Yongye Chuxue said without hesitation, "Su Yu, of course!"
Prince Yun sneered inwardly. Did he really think that it was as simple as fishing? With Xue Zhongbao's strength, killing Su Yu at the bottom of the lake would be a piece of cake.
Yongye Chuxue, on the other hand, thought that since Su Yu could remain unscathed under the dragon's roar just now, he must have some extraordinary treasures with him. Therefore, he might not be defeated by Xue Zhongbao.
Su Yu dove into the lake and quickly disappeared.
Everyone could only wait in silence.
Not long after Su Yu dived into the lake, an endless and weak Dragon Power swept over and froze his Mortal Fairy Strength.
Then, scales appeared on Su Yu's arm, and the dragon's might no longer affected him. In this way, Su Yu was no different from being at the bottom of an ordinary lake.
Before long, Su Yu came to the center of the lake and found a pearl that was emitting thunder and lightning. It was about the size of a fist. It was the Divine Thunder Pearl, an object that could withstand the divine thunder of heaven and earth.
After all, it was an Emperor-based Saint Artifact. Su Yu certainly would not waste it. He took the Divine Thunder Pearl away with a suction force.
At this moment, a tyrannical aura came from behind.
Turning his head to look, he saw that it was Xue Zhongbao lurking behind Su Yu's back, launching a fatal sneak attack while he was collecting the Divine Thunder Pearl.
"Kid, you still don't know, right? This is your grave!" Having learned his lesson, Xue Zhongbao did not use the Meteor Hammer again. Instead, he relied on his superior physical strength to deal a fatal blow to Su Yu.
Su Yu revealed a faint smile. "What a coincidence! I think so too."
As soon as he finished speaking, he twisted his body, and his entire body transformed into a black dragon that was two hundred zhang long, and he charged forward.
"Puff —"
Caught off guard, Xue Zhongbao was sent flying by the black dragon. He spat out a mouthful of blood and half of his body was crushed.
His heart was overwhelmed with shock!
The last time they fought, Su Yu did not have this kind of power. After a day, he had become so terrifying!
Run!
Xue Zhongbao was a man who was meticulous even though he was rough. He was not always reckless.
The moment they clashed, Xue Zhongbao knew that he was the one who fell into the trap!
As he fled, his broken body frantically healed, and in two to three breaths, he had recovered by more than half.
At the same time, he swam quickly to the surface of the lake. As long as Prince Yun saw him, Su Yu would not dare to do anything to him.
However, just as he was about to leap out of the water, a black shadow blocked his head, and a huge dragon claw slammed down.
Bang!
Xue Zhongbao fell back into the water.
His heart sank, and he raised his head and shouted, "Su Yu, this is just a spar. Are you trying to kill me?"
"Learn from each other?" Su Yu laughed mischievously.
Xue Zhongbao was frightened by this smile. He hurriedly said, "Just now, just now, it was just a slip of the tongue. I was just angry about that day and wanted to teach you a lesson. I didn't mean anything else. After all, Princess Chuxue is here, how would I dare to kill you? I swear, this is really just a spar. "
In order to survive, Xue Zhongbao couldn't care less about his dignity. However, the hatred in his heart had increased exponentially. Once he went up, he would kill Su Yu immediately. Su Yu had hidden his strength too well.
"Alright, I believe you are just trying to learn from each other," Su Yu said after thinking for a moment.
Xue Zhongbao secretly heaved a sigh of relief and sighed. "You will pay a heavy price for your naivety!"
However, the next moment, Su Yu said, "However, you can learn from each other, and I will kill mine. There is no conflict between us."
As he spoke, a dragon claw slammed down, and Xue Zhongbao's body, which had yet to recover, was on the verge of collapse.
Xue Zhongbao was shocked. "Ah! Su Yu, you, you dare to kill me? "
Su Yu's dragon eyes were indifferent, like a real dragon looking down on the common people. He said placidly, "You are wrong. What I want to kill is not you … but all of you!"
Bang!
The dragon claw pressed down hard, and Xue Zhongbao's body was torn apart.
A pure soul escaped from the physical body and fled out of the lake in fear.
Originally, with the speed of the soul traversing the Void, it could have escaped to Prince Yun's side by teleportation.
Unfortunately, the dragon's might in the lake limited its speed, making it even slower than its body.
Su Yu returned to his human form and smiled faintly. A crack appeared between his brows. "Soul Devourer!"
Creak!
Xue Zhongbao's soul, filled with terror and remorse, was completely devoured by Su Yu, becoming a tonic that nourished Su Yu's soul energy.
This was the soul of a Level Five Peak deity. Even if he could only absorb one-tenth of its essence, it was still a great tonic for Su Yu.
Su Yu's soul energy increased tremendously, and he broke through to Level Five!
Once again gaining powerful soul energy, Su Yu's senses were even more astonishing. He could even vaguely capture the source of the gaze that was watching him.
As if sensing that he had been exposed, the owner of the gaze stopped monitoring him immediately.
"Haha, I'll settle the score with you soon." Su Yu snorted coldly. Without the feeling of being watched, he felt much more relaxed.
After getting rid of Xue Zhongbao, Su Yu found the True Sky Flute of Heavenly Melody without much effort.
After caressing it, a soft flute tune drifted out of the hole. When it entered his ears, Su Yu's entire soul trembled slightly, as if it had been baptized. It was extremely comfortable.
Su Yu was secretly surprised. "This is a good thing indeed. If the leaked sound of the flute is already so powerful, when it is actually played, it indeed has the power to break through all sound wave cultivation techniques. It is also entirely possible to restrain the waves of sorcery energy."
"Hehe, Prince Yun has really given me a great gift!"
In the outside world, Yongye Chuxue and the Princes and Princesses of the Xue Nation stood by the lake, paying close attention to the changes in the lake.
Soon after, muffled sounds came from the lake, and the water became murky. They knew then that a fight had taken place under the water.
As for the outcome of the fight, the Princes of the Xue Nation secretly sneered. From time to time, they glanced at Yongye Chuxue, who was all alone, with fiery looks on their faces.
Soon, she would become their plaything.
However, they were slightly puzzled by the fact that a few breaths before the end of the fight, a pitch-black shadow of a dragon vaguely appeared on the surface of the lake. It disappeared in a flash, and many of the Princes and Princesses thought it was just an illusion.
Fortunately, the commotion soon subsided. They believed that Xue Zhongbao had finished off Su Yu completely.
Prince Yun put on a fake smile and said, "Princess Chuxue, although this is just a friendly match, the lake is dangerous after all. If your friend doesn't make it to the surface, please restrain your grief."
Yongye Chuxue looked calm, but deep down, she was extremely nervous. She could easily guess what the commotion was about.
In terms of the strength of both sides, the possibility of Su Yu being killed was as high as 99%!
Splash!
All of a sudden, the sound of water splashing was heard. The Princes and Princesses were overjoyed. It was over.
However, when they saw who appeared on the surface of the water, all the Princes and Princesses were stunned.
On the other hand, Yongye Chuxue heaved a huge sigh of relief. She loosened her clenched fists, which were soaked with sweat.
Exhausted, Su Yu swam ashore. Yongye Chuxue helped him up, and she immediately channeled divine energy into him to restore his strength.
Prince Yun's eyes turned cold. "Why did you come up first?"
Su Yu's face was "pale" as he asked him, "How can you be so sure that Xue Zhongbao came up first?"
"I …" Prince Yun hesitated. Of course, he knew that Xue Zhongbao would kill Su Yu at the bottom of the lake, but he couldn't say that out loud. With a snort, he asked, "Where is Xue Zhongbao?"
Su Yu said, "You ask me? Who am I supposed to ask?"
Prince Yun's murderous intentions were surging, and he was about to lose control.
"Brother Yun, don't worry. If he could come up, how could Brother Xue?" a princess said.
The rest of the Princes and Princesses were relieved as well, thinking that Xue Zhongbao must have been careless and let him escape. He might still be looking for Su Yu at the bottom of the lake.
Among them, only Xue Xiaoman had reservations.
She stared at Su Yu, feeling an ominous feeling in her heart.
Perhaps Xue Zhongbao would never come up.
Ten minutes had passed, and the lake was calm.
Half an hour had passed, and there was still no movement in the lake.
Two hours had passed, and the faces of the Princes and Princesses finally changed.
Even if Xue Zhongbao was still looking for Su Yu, two hours had passed, and he should have shown himself.
The longer Prince Yun waited, the more he felt that something was wrong. He looked at Su Yu coldly. "Why hasn't he come up yet?"
Su Yu shrugged. "You have to ask him. Maybe he has fallen asleep at the bottom of the lake?"
Boom!
Prince Yun unleashed his aura, stirring up a cloud of dust.
Yongye Chuxue said placidly, "What is Prince Yun doing? Killing someone? "
Prince Yun looked at her coldly and gradually withdrew his aura. He said, "I just want to know what happened at the bottom of the lake just now, and what caused such a huge commotion."
Upon hearing that, Su Yu looked bewildered. "I don't know. I was startled by the huge commotion, and that's why I swam back."
"You're lying! That commotion was clearly … "Prince Yun said coldly.
Su Yu's eyes were calm. "What was that commotion? Please tell me, Prince Yun. "
Prince Yun was speechless. Was he supposed to tell Su Yu that it was Xue Zhongbao who was attacking him?
"Nothing. That commotion could have been caused by some strange beast at the bottom of the lake," Prince Yun's tone was indescribably gloomy.
"Give me a moment!" Prince Yun waited for another half an hour, but to no avail, he entered the water himself.
After half a cup of tea's time, accompanied by a soft splash, Prince Yun returned, dripping wet.
His long, wet hair covered most of his face, making him look even more somber.
In his hand, he held half of Xue Zhongbao's corpse. The hideous wounds caused by the sharp claws were clearly visible.
"Ah! Brother Xue Zhongbao! "
"What killed Brother Xue Zhongbao?"
"Who did it? It's Su Yu, it must be Su Yu! "
Xue Zhongbao's death caused an uproar among the Princes and Princesses.
Su Yu glanced at them calmly and said indifferently, "Everyone, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. Do you have any proof that I did it?"
The Princes and Princesses stared at Su Yu with hatred, their murderous intents flickering.
"Haha, you're so sure that I'm the murderer, as if you knew that I would definitely fight Xue Zhongbao. Could it be that you're all gods who can predict the future?"
As soon as he said that, the Princes and Princesses immediately hid their strange expressions and avoided Su Yu's gaze.
"Look at the wound, it's obvious that it was caused by the strange beast in the lake. You're going to blame it on me, aren't you?" Su Yu asked coldly.
Hence, the Princes and Princesses dared not look Su Yu in the eye.
However, the anger in their hearts burned even more fiercely. Su Yu was the one who killed Xue Zhongbao, yet he questioned them with such confidence that they couldn't doubt him. This feeling of grievance was completely different from what they had imagined.
"Su Yu!" At that moment, Prince Yun spoke, his voice extremely somber. "Where is my Emperor-based Saint Artifact, the True Sky Flute of Heavenly Melody?"
