The tokens were black in color and engraved with different names.
"Are these the tokens they carried with them?" After a long while, a disciple finally spoke with uncertainty.
Firstly, Song Qingshan had yet to reveal the true identity of the killers, so the tokens were suspicious. Secondly, was it possible for Su Yu to kill three people alone?
Whoosh —
However, the Third Elder's figure flickered. With a wave of his sleeves, he took all three tokens into his sleeves.
His face was solemn and the depths of his eyes were filled with fear.
"The three people you killed, what were their appearances and abilities like?" The Third Elder had naturally heard Song Qingshan's account of the situation and wanted to verify it.
Su Yu calmly said, "A beautiful lady at Fourth Level Lower Tier Holy King, a prodigy of souls at Fourth Level Upper Tier Holy King, and the black-robed Wang Li who was a Fourth Level Peak Holy King."
The fear in the Third Elder's eyes gradually faded as he nodded slightly, "These are indeed the three killers. Su Yu killed three of them alone, the merit is great. The reward for entering the depository of scriptures should indeed belong to him."
These words caused an uproar.
"How is that possible? Looking at his aura, he should have just broken through to Fourth Level Lower Tier Holy King not long ago, how could he kill three people in a row? "Someone questioned!
"Third Elder, this is absolutely impossible! Just based on his words and three baffling tokens, how can you determine that the merit belongs to him! "The Fifth Level Upper Tier Holy King was indignant.
If Su Yu really killed all the killers alone, how could they have the chance to snatch the merit?
The Third Elder secretly touched the three tokens in his sleeves, his heart trembling. It was the Empire of Darkness!
Hearing this, his old eyes slightly narrowed, "Are you doubting my judgment?"
With that, the group of powerful fighters fell silent.
But deep down, they were all indignant.
"Then, where are the remaining two Fifth Level Lower Tier Holy Kings?" The Third Elder asked. The two of them had not been apprehended yet, so the mission had to continue.
"Li Xiaowei escaped," Su Yu replied truthfully.
Escaped? Several Fifth Level Holy Kings could not help but mock, "So you are so strong, you could even scare off a Fifth Level Holy King!"
Su Yu calmly glanced at them, not bothering to explain.
The Third Elder understood the hidden meaning, "Li Xiaowei escaped, but where is the Fifth Level Holy King demonic beast? Where are you hiding? "
Even if there was only one Fifth Level Holy King left, they had to capture and kill him to give the faction an explanation.
Upon hearing this, all the Fifth Level Holy Kings were slightly shaken. Even if there was only one Fifth Level Holy King demonic beast left, it would still be worth it for them to make a move. A full 100 Honor Points could be exchanged for a legendary high-grade marrow cleansing elixir! Even in the great sects, there weren't many such pills. Even core disciples might not be able to use them as they pleased. They had to fight for honor points to exchange for them.
However, Su Yu calmly uttered a sentence that caused everyone to stiffen.
"Just outside."
The spacious hall suddenly became deathly silent.
Even the Third Elder was stunned. Outside, what did this mean?
Filled with doubts, the crowd walked to the entrance and saw a gigantic head the size of a small house lying outside the hall, dripping with blood!
Song Qingshan sucked in a breath of cold air. "That Snow Lion that can spit out ice!!"
It … it was actually killed!
At that moment, the way everyone looked at Su Yu had changed!
Not only could Su Yu scare away a Fifth Level Holy King, but he could also … kill a Fifth Level Holy King?
Not just the ordinary disciples, even the Third Elder was deeply shocked.
The three tokens might not be able to prove anything, but the bloody heads of the demonic beasts were irrefutable evidence!
"Su Yu deserves the right to enter the depository of scriptures! Furthermore, according to the rules, the 135 Honor Points can be exchanged for elixirs! "
The crowd's expressions were ugly, either jealous or secretly hateful!
They had originally thought that the six-man group was just a scout. Who knew that Su Yu, whom no one had taken seriously, would appear?
In the end, the murderers were almost completely annihilated by him.
All the credit was taken by Su Yu alone!
The opportunity to read legacy level cultivation techniques at the depository of scriptures was a rare opportunity!
There was also the legendary high-grade marrow cleansing elixir, which was said to have an unimaginable effect on cultivation base breakthroughs!
Many of them were filled with regret. They should have joined the six-man group back then!
Song Qingshan's expression was uncertain. He had escaped death, and the right to enter the depository of scriptures that should have belonged to him had been easily taken by Su Yu!
"Elder! I can't accept this! "Song Qingshan clenched his fists in dissatisfaction.
The Third Elder looked over indifferently. "What do you have to accept?"
"Su Yu clearly had the help of an expert in secret. This is not fair!" Song Qingshan replied firmly.
Many Fifth Level Holy Kings secretly nodded.
Not only Song Qingshan, but they also had their doubts.
Su Yu killing three Fourth Level Holy Kings was still acceptable. After all, Su Yu had a record of defeating Cao Xuan.
But a Fifth Level Holy King was too absurd!
Not only did Su Yu escape from a Fifth Level Holy King, he had also killed him and chased away another Fifth Level Holy King. This was unbelievable!
The only possibility was that someone was secretly helping Su Yu.
As for who it was, the crowd was clear as a mirror. Other than the Second Elder who was biased towards Su Yu, who else could it be?
"You want me to retract my orders based on speculation without any evidence?" The Third Elder's expression turned cold as he lightly shouted.
Although he had also guessed that Su Yu had the help of the Second Elder.
But this matter concerned the Second Elder, he naturally had to smooth things over.
The crowd's hearts trembled, and they all fell silent.
But like Song Qingshan, their gazes towards Su Yu were filled with hostility, jealousy, and contempt.
After the Third Elder had left, the crowd finally erupted.
Song Qingshan's heart was burning with jealousy, and he took the opportunity to make things difficult for Su Yu. "Su Yu! Since you had the help of an expert, why did you sit back and watch your seniors die in vain? "
Su Yu slightly creased his brows. "I was alone, with no one to help me."
"Su Yu!!" Song Qingshan sternly shouted, opening his mouth to reprimand. "I know that the seniors in the team had indeed looked down on you, and that was why their words were offensive. But you could have saved them, why did you watch them die?"
"So there was such a thing, how narrow-minded!" A Fifth Level Holy King's face was filled with disgust.
"I really feel sorry for the seniors who died!"
"Let's go! This kind of person who has no ties with the same faction, I'm afraid one day I will be killed by him! "Another Fifth Level Holy King lightly snorted.
"Go, go, go! Ignore him, let him enjoy the merits exchanged with the blood of his seniors! "
"Yes, I have just returned to the faction, and I have to immediately register for the Xianyun Contest. Otherwise, I will not be qualified to compete in two months."
Whoosh —
Groups of people passed by Su Yu with cold and disdainful expressions.
He was clearly a hero who had avenged the deaths of his seniors, but at this moment, he was being ostracized and neglected by the crowd.
Standing among the crowd, Su Yu did not explain.
He had monopolized all the benefits, attracting the jealousy of others. That was the source of his slander and neglect.
This was human nature, and Su Yu did not bother to argue.
After the mission handover, Su Yu was left with the most important thing — registration!
Today was the last day, and he could still make it.
Along the way to the External Affairs Division, he could occasionally catch a glimpse of disciples hurrying back from outside the faction.
Many of them were like Su Yu, carrying out a mission outside and rushing back.
When Su Yu arrived, there were already many disciples present.
For example, Song Qingshan and a few Fifth Level Holy Kings who had reprimanded him were among them.
It was early in the morning, and the External Affairs Division had just opened.
Xi Ruolan and Qin Gang walked out, calmly glancing at the surrounding crowd, slightly frowning.
"Is something the matter?" Xi Ruolan's gaze was calm. When her gaze swept past Su Yu, her pupils slightly shrank, but she quickly acted as if nothing had happened.
Song Qingshan was respectful and courteous. "Clan Master Xi, we are all disciples here to register for the Xianyun Contest. We hope that Clan Master Xi can make things convenient for us."
That day, the urgent mission had come in a hurry, and Song Qingshan had not registered.
The rest of the disciples had left the faction a month ago, and had missed the opportunity.
"Registration?" Qin Gang raised his eyebrows. "Did you not receive an announcement from the faction?"
Hmm? Everyone's expressions changed. What announcement?
A bad feeling welled up in their hearts.
"Deputy Clan Master Qin, we were carrying out a mission outside, and have only just returned today. We really do not know what announcement the faction has made," Song Qingshan said solemnly.
Qin Gang's expression changed, and he turned back to exchange a look with Xi Ruolan. He then announced with slight regret, "You came back late … Three days ago, the quota for registration had reached three hundred people. The quota has been filled, and the registration ended three days ago."
Looking at the few Fifth Level Holy Kings in the crowd, Qin Gang secretly felt pity.
These words caused a huge uproar, and the crowd was in an uproar!
There were thirty of them, and their abilities were all above Fourth Level Holy Kings. They had finally returned from carrying out a mission, only to receive the news that the quota had been filled?
"What kind of joke is this? I have waited for three whole years for the Ancient Xianyun Temple, and now the quota has been filled? "A youth who was over twenty years old could not accept the sudden reality before his eyes.
"Yes! Why? The registration for the previous contest was based on the deadline. Why is it suddenly changed to the quota being filled, and the deadline has been brought forward? "Another Fifth Level Holy King suppressed his anger, trying his best to calm himself down.
Song Qingshan's eyes lost focus, and he said in a daze, "How … How is this possible? I have lost the right to register? "
Thud, thud —
Su Yu staggered two steps back. The sudden announcement had cut off all his hopes!
This, this was the only shortcut to save Xianer!
If he had lost the chance to register, how could he enter the Ancient Xianyun Temple, and how could he find the Phoenix Blood Elixir to save Xianer?
He had accepted the mission, even though he knew it was a suicide mission, in order to break through to Fourth Level Holy King and fulfill the registration requirements!
The ridiculous and laughable thing was that he had painstakingly raised his cultivation base to Fourth Level Holy King, and rushed back at the last moment, only to be rejected by the cruel fact that the quota had been filled!
Could it be that he really had to give Xianer to Cao Xuan?
Seeing that the commotion was getting bigger, Qin Gang was gradually losing control.
The disciples who could carry out missions outside the faction for a long time were all Fourth Level Holy Kings and above, and there were many who were stronger than Qin Gang.
There was even a Fifth Level Holy King among them!
With such a large group of people, if they were to fight, how could he control the situation?
He cast a pleading look at Xi Ruolan.
Xi Ruolan pretended to be thinking, and the crowd focused their expectant gazes on her, their hearts in their throats.
If they missed the Ancient Xianyun Temple that was held once every five years, they would not have another chance.
But Xi Ruolan quickly gave a reply, heartless and indifferent, "No! The decision of the faction cannot be changed. The registration has ended, please leave. "
Seeing that the crowd was still going to cause trouble, Xi Ruolan's gaze turned cold, and she raised her palm, making a slash in the air!
Crash —
In the courtyard, a huge tree that was as thick as a human was broken!
The remaining cold spiritual energy was like a blade scraping across the faces of the crowd, painful and cold.
"The faction's orders, anyone who disobeys will be beheaded!" Xi Ruolan's tone was calm, but it could not hide her cold murderous intent.
The crowd was shocked, no longer daring to cause trouble.
But they could not hide their suppressed grief and indignation.
This matter was too unfair. They had just happened to be carrying out a mission outside, yet they missed it!
"Retreat immediately, whoever dares to cause trouble will be beheaded!" Xi Ruolan coldly commanded!
Just as the crowd was about to leave.
A person flew out from the Inner Sanctum. It was none other than Wu Qingzhou!
He was the only survivor of the treasure escorting team at the Abyss of Wutong!
After recuperating for a month, his injuries had mostly recovered.
"Clan Master Xi, may I ask if the junior who killed the Snow Lion came here?" Wu Qingzhou's face was anxious, he had chased them all the way from the Golden Bell Hall.
Xi Ruolan was slightly startled, not understanding his meaning.
But Song Qingshan and the rest all looked at Su Yu, who was behind the crowd.
Wu Qingzhou followed their gaze, his face filled with gratitude as he flew over, cupping his fists and smiling, "You are Junior Su Yu?"
Su Yu nodded absentmindedly, "Yes."
"Thank you, Junior Su, for avenging my brother! He was buried in the mouth of that ferocious Snow Lion! "Wu Qingzhou kowtowed in worship.
Su Yu helped him up, listlessly smiling, "I did it in passing, you don't have to thank me."
Eh? Seeing that Su Yu's emotions were not right, he looked around and saw that the emotions of the thirty people had changed. He could not help but be curious.
