"You?" Lin Xiao laughed in anger. "Let me see how powerful the son-in-law of the Duke of Xianyu is!"
Shua –
Lin Xiao's body turned into a black shadow. Like a cheetah, he was agile and swift, full of explosive power!
"Mountain-crushing Hammer!" Lin Xiao's body moved like a shadow. He clenched his left and right fists, raised them high above his head, and smashed them down!
A layer of faint green luster surrounded the heavy hammer.
It was as if the hammer had descended from the clouds of the Nine Heavens, descending from the boundless depths of space.
The faint green light followed the heavy hammer, leaving behind a series of afterimages.
Wu wu —
The air whimpered incessantly.
Whiffs of strong energy stirred the black hair hanging in front of Su Yu's forehead, revealing a pair of clear eyes that were as deep as the starry sky.
Su Yu's figure moved like the wind.
Just a moment ago, he was still sitting in the guest seat.
The next moment, all that was left was an afterimage!
"Purple Star Thunderbolt!" Ever since he recovered from his serious injuries, his cultivation had unknowingly broken through to the peak of Level Four. Under the infusion of true qi, the power of the Purple Star Thunderbolt soared exponentially!
It was the same Purple Star Thunderbolt, but it had once found it difficult to defeat the peak of the Fifth Heaven.
But now, it was more than enough!
Faint purple lightning flashed fiercely.
The sizzling sound was like thunder.
Bang bang bang —
Su Yu faced it head-on!
A hammer and a fist, exploding with a rumble, setting off a violent gale!
The cold wind was unbridled and the Qi Sea was flying; the momentum was astonishing!
The two of them maintained their collision posture, neither of them retreating!
Lin Xiao's expression changed drastically!
He, who was at Level Five Peak, was successfully blocked by Su Yu!
The Third Prince's dim eyes suddenly lit up.
That day at the Duke of Xianyu's Manor, Su Yu was severely injured by the Level Five Peak Royal Brother's fatal blow.
How long had it been? Yet, he was able to fight to a draw with a single move!
"That's right! But, you're still too weak!! "Lin Xiao restrained his shock. How could he admit defeat in front of the Third Prince?
"Earth Splitting Three Styles!" Lin Xiao's aura suddenly changed.
《Earth Shattering Three Styles》, a middle-ranked top-notch cultivation technique!
If the previous strike was like a heavy hammer falling from the sky, at this moment, it was like a mountain falling from the starry sky, and it carried the power to shatter mountains and rivers!
The dense green luster was like a flame that burned through the heavens!
The terrifying fist was like a mountain, capable of shattering mountains and rivers for thousands of miles!
At that moment, Su Yu's expression was as calm as still water, calm and unperturbed!
"Heavenly Finger!"
In the face of such a powerful and oppressive attack, Su Yu raised his finger high.
In an instant, his whole body was surrounded by nature, peaceful and harmonious.
It was as if he had become a person in a painting, extraordinary and otherworldly.
There was no gorgeous technique, no dazzling brilliance, no dazzling posture.
What he had was merely an ordinary finger.
However, this finger contained an indescribable profundity.
That trajectory would cause one to sink into it, unable to extricate themselves.
Chi-la —
Rub, rub, rub —
Lin Xiao felt an irresistible force of nature sweeping toward him!
At the critical moment, he switched from offense to defense.
A bone-piercing pain came from his arms. An invisible force forced him to retreat and hit the stone pillar behind him!
Wu — —
Lin Xiao's expression changed as he tasted a mouthful of blood in his throat!
He actually lost by a small margin!
The Third Prince's eyes flickered with excitement, resulting in a brilliant glow.
In just ten days, he was already on par with a Level Five Peak Martial Artist!
Lin Xiao was unwilling to give up, and he attacked again.
"Forget it, you can't beat Su Yu." The Third Prince calmly waved his hand.
Lin Xiao returned to the Third Prince's side unwillingly. He could feel his internal organs trembling, and he was rather dissatisfied.
"How is it, Third Prince? Do I have the right to participate in the Holy Meet? "
The Third Prince lifted his gaze and looked directly into Su Yu's eyes for the first time. Su Yu's deep eyes, his determination and determination moved him.
After muttering to himself for some time, the Third Prince seemed to have made up his mind, and he nodded his head. "Fine! I will make an additional bet on you! "
Additional? Su Yu pondered.
"I will help you obtain the Holy Crown. If you succeed, you will help me obtain the empire!" The Third Prince said!
Su Yu regained his senses and nodded. "Of course!"
"Lin Xiao, immediately prepare the best training room for Mister Su, the best medicinal herbs, the best teachers, and the best sparring partner!" The Third Prince was extremely courageous. Since he had decided to help Su Yu, he would not hesitate to pay any price!
"In short, bring out the best resources in the Prince's Manor! If Su Yu has anything he wants, bring it all to me. If the Prince's Manor does not have it, go to the market to buy it. If the market does not have it, send people to search the entire imperial city! Do you understand? "
Lin Xiao was shocked. The Third Prince wanted to place his hopes on Su Yu?
As a trusted aide, Lin Xiao understood the Third Prince's situation. If he could not become the monarch, he could only become a skeleton under the First Prince's feet!
Hence, he could understand why the Third Prince wanted to fight for a sliver of hope.
What he could not understand was why the Third Prince wanted to place his hopes on Su Yu, a youth whom he was not familiar with and whose abilities were not the best!
After a few hours, Su Yu immediately started to train in seclusion!
Lin Xiao returned to the Third Prince's side to report. He could not hide his confusion. "Master, why do you trust Su Yu so much? Please forgive me for speaking the truth. Even though Su Yu's abilities are above mine, it is impossible for him to obtain the crown in the Holy Meet. Master, aren't you being too hasty by placing your hopes on him? "
The Third Prince sighed. "Who said I was placing my hopes on him?"
Lin Xiao did not understand. "Then why did Master give him all the best resources? Such precious resources should be used to nurture a few more secret guards. The value would be far greater than spending it on Su Yu. After all, spending it on him is akin to drawing water with a wicker basket. "
The Third Prince laughed. His face was filled with nostalgia. "In my life, I have met countless people. I have friends all over the world. However, he is the only person that I feel like I can confide in."
Lin Xiao understood. It turned out that the Third Prince and Su Yu appreciated each other.
They were both extraordinarily intelligent, had the same rough fates, and both had to make a decision in their lives!
"I'm not asking for anything in return. Just treat these resources as a gift from me, a confidant of mine. If he's lucky enough to obtain the crown, that would be great. But if he doesn't, it doesn't matter. For this Holy Meet, I've made other preparations. That's my real chance to turn the tables." The Third Prince lightly smiled.
...
Su Yu had been on the run for ten days. The vital energy in his body had been depleted several times. His vital energy had increased, and he was on the verge of breaking through to Level Five.
Now, the First Prince had given everything he had to help Su Yu train. He was on the verge of breaking through!
Feeling the vital energy in his body being nourished and strengthened, Su Yu was extremely focused!
Buzz, buzz, buzz —
His body trembled. The vital energy in Su Yu's body was at its limit, as if it was about to break through the restraints of his body.
Half a day later!
Rumble —
Su Yu felt a light ringing in his head. Following that, a special gas in the air was absorbed into his body.
His vital energy had increased by one fold!
Level Five of the Martial Path! Su Yu had broken through!
Feeling the abundant vital energy of Level Five, which was twice as dense as Level Four, Su Yu realized how amazing it was that he had once defeated a Level Five.
Now, if he were to fight with Lin Xiao again, Su Yu was confident that he could defeat him!
But Su Yu understood.
His abilities were not enough! Far from enough!
Wanting to fight for the first crown at the Holy Meet, with his current abilities, was just a pipe dream!
There were still three days until the Holy Meet!
In these three days, he had to use all his energy and train like crazy!
He had three main directions for his training.
First, Tempest, a medium level cultivation technique. He was only at Stage Three Lower Class, and there was still a lot of room for improvement!
Second, Purple Star Thunderbolt, a Saint Level cultivation technique. He was only at the beginner level, and had yet to reach Lower Class. With every improvement, his abilities would increase by a large margin!
Third, the Holy Decree! It was impossible to measure the level of enlightenment he had achieved. But looking back, every time he gained enlightenment, his abilities would increase by a level!
"For the next three days, he will use his time manipulation to train like crazy while time is sped up by thirty times!"
Three days, with time sped up by thirty times, Su Yu would have a total of ninety-nine days, a full three months!
Time was of the essence. Su Yu closed his eyes and immediately began his enlightenment!
...
In the First Prince's mansion, a letter was delivered by pigeon.
After reading the letter on the pigeon, the First Prince's eyes turned cold, and a cold killing intent enveloped his body.
On his right cheek, there was a long, hideous scar, like a flesh-colored centipede.
His right eye was covered with a black eyepatch, making him look like a one-eyed dragon.
As such, he looked even more cruel and ruthless.
"What a good brother, to think that Su Yu is in your hands!" The First Prince clenched his fist, his eyes filled with hatred.
The death of his second brother and the pain of his disfigurement had been deeply etched in the First Prince's heart. As long as Su Yu was not killed, he would not have a day of peace!
But now that Su Yu had entered the Third Prince's mansion, he could no longer send people to assassinate him.
There were also martial artists in the Third Prince's mansion. Trying to assassinate Su Yu secretly was no different from a fantasy. Once discovered, the Third Prince could use this opportunity to report the First Prince's assassination to the outside world. He was afraid that the Sanctuary would immediately send people to kill him.
Hence, before the Holy Meet ended, he could not act blindly without thinking.
"Bai Qixiong, pass down the order. The imperial guards are to guard the city! After the Holy Meet ends, the entire city is to capture and kill Su Yu. Once discovered, kill him! "The First Prince passed down the order coldly.
After the Holy Meet ended, the Holy Seal would disappear. There would be no risk for him to kill Su Yu in front of everyone!
Bai Qixiong broke out in cold sweat. Su Yu had actually entered the imperial capital under their noses?
"Yes! I will do it immediately! "Bai Qixiong hurriedly turned around, wanting to atone for his mistake.
"Wait!" The First Prince's face turned gloomy. "Because of your incompetence, there is a possibility that I will be exposed!
Now, I have something for you to do. "
Bai Qixiong hurriedly knelt down. "I did not do my job well. Please punish me, Your Highness!"
"There is no need. I am in need of manpower. You still have the chance to atone for your mistake. Now, go and do something immediately!" The First Prince said coldly. "That is, kill Bodyguard Chen, who was working together with you."
In the process of the two of them working together to capture Su Yu, Bodyguard Chen had already seen Bai Qixiong's face. He also knew that Bai Qixiong was the First Prince's man.
Now that Su Yu was still alive, he had to kill Bodyguard Chen just in case. Dead men tell no tales!
"Yes!" Bai Qixiong wiped off his cold sweat.
"Also!" Suddenly, the First Prince said mysteriously, "Have you made any progress with the cultivation technique I asked you to comprehend?"
Bai Qixiong's heart turned cold. He hurriedly took out a sheepskin scroll and offered it to the First Prince with both hands. "Your Highness, this is my most recent comprehension. Please take a look."
Grabbing the sheepskin scroll, the First Prince's eyes were burning with passion. "Yes, you have done well. Remember, you are not allowed to spread the cultivation technique that you have seen!"
Bai Qixiong bowed in acknowledgment and left quickly.
After Bai Qixiong left, the First Prince's eyes gradually turned cold.
"Teacher!" With a light shout, a stooped old man in a red robe with sunken eyes descended from the roof like a ghost.
He was the First Prince's Martial Path teacher. He was a frightening Level Seven Peak of the Martial Path!
The First Prince passed the sheepskin scroll to the old man in the red robe.
The old man flipped through the scroll. His sunken eyes shone brightly and he let out a gratified smile. "Not bad. This is indeed the last part of the comprehension of Floating Light Shadow. As expected of the Holy Genius who was ranked eleventh in the Holy Meet fifteen years ago. He was able to comprehend the Saint Level cultivation technique of the Imperial Family to such an extent!"
This sheepskin scroll was Bai Qixiong's comprehension of the Saint Level cultivation technique Floating Light Shadow!
