Eternal Heavenly Emperor

Su Wanyue gradually gained the upper hand.

Her cultivation realm was indeed similar to Supreme Elder Jin's. Both were Fourth Tier War Generals, one in the middle period, the other in the late period. Strictly speaking, Supreme Elder Jin was somewhat stronger, but strength was only part of combat power.

"Brother Jin, you were injured a few days ago and haven't recovered yet. Let me take over this fight," an old man suddenly said.

Supreme Elder Liu.

Everyone around whispered in their hearts. The Sky Heart Sect had a total of seven Supreme Elders, and Supreme Elder Liu was recognized as the strongest after the Sect Master. Of course, families like the Liu, Jin, and Gu clans surely had even stronger old monsters that could rival Zhao Wuxin, the Sect Master of the Sky Heart Sect.

But such powerhouses naturally stayed within their families and wouldn't come to the Sky Heart Sect.

Supreme Elder Jin frowned slightly but still stepped aside.

The supposed old injury was just an excuse because if he continued to fight, he would definitely lose. Although very unwilling, he was indeed not as good as his opponent. If he were beaten into a retreating mess, not only would he lose face, but so would the Sky Heart Sect.

So Supreme Elder Liu had to step in, naturally.

Su Wanyue also did not press her advantage, standing gracefully with her hands at her sides, as clear and pure as an immortal, without a trace of anger or dust.

"What's your name, Daoist friend?" Supreme Elder Liu stepped out but did not immediately make a move. Instead, he inquired about Su Wanyue's identity. After all, in the entire Tianhe County, only three great sects had War General-level powerhouses. Clearly, she couldn't be from the Sky Heart Sect, so there were only two possibilities left—Silver Frost Valley or the Suiyu Sect.

Su Wanyue did not answer. The mountain wind blew, making her cloak flutter as if she were about to ride the wind and leave.

Supreme Elder Liu's expression changed slightly. The other party actually dared to ignore him. This was too much. After all, everyone was at the same level of strength, and it was common courtesy to give face. Not giving face like this was quite inappropriate.

"Then we'll have to see the truth in battle." Supreme Elder Liu said solemnly. With a clink, he drew a long sword and flicked his right hand. A ruler's length of starlight formed on the blade.

—Although the starlight was short, the deep and unfathomable glow gave an even deeper sense of coldness.

He was an Eighth Tier War General!

Chu Hao's expression changed slightly. The gap between them was too great. How could Su Wanyue defend against this? This fight started because of him. He absolutely didn't want Su Wanyue to get hurt because of him.

Su Wanyue showed a slight look of caution. After all, the opponent had already used a weapon, possibly even a Treasure Artifact. Meanwhile, her Xuanyin Sword was still being forged, which would significantly widen their combat power gap.

—Of course, a Treasure Artifact was formidable. Otherwise, why would she specifically seek out Feng Yezi to forge the Xuanyin Sword?

"Watch the sword." Supreme Elder Liu struck in anger. The sword light was chilling, buzzing as it tore through the air, creating whirlpools that could shred a Warrior to pieces with their terrifying power.

The spectators were greatly terrified and had to retreat again.

Su Wanyue met him with her palm strikes. As she formed starlight with her palms to parry, tangible waves surged in all directions, shattering every stone on the ground.

The battle between War Generals was terrifying.

In the exchange of energy, every sweep that touched the stone hall left a pit three to four meters deep in the rock, making the Low Tier Martial Artists' hearts tremble with fear.

This was Black Iron Rock, one of the hardest stone materials in the world. If this energy swept over oneself… would there be any chance of survival?

The two engaged in a fierce fight, and Su Wanyue gradually fell into a disadvantage.

No matter what, she was only a Fourth Tier War General, with a gap of four small realms compared to the opponent. A talented individual could be invincible within the same tier. An advanced talent could defeat an opponent across one small realm, and a super talent could defeat opponents across two small realms.

Four small realms? How could she manage that?

Moreover, the longsword in Supreme Elder Liu's hand was a Treasure Artifact with a thunder attribute. Every strike emitted blue electric arcs, crackling and popping.

Although no one was hit, the power of being wielded by Supreme Elder Liu was undoubtedly formidable.

The disciples of the Sky Heart Sect all smiled, thinking, so what if we outnumber and overpower our opponents? In the world of Martial Artists, the strong ruled. Without the ability, one could only obediently hide.

Crack, crack.

The electric arcs shattered Su Wanyue's cloak and veil, revealing a simple white dress underneath. Her perfect figure could no longer be hidden, proudly displayed before everyone.

Her beautiful face was finally revealed, making the stars and the moon seem to lose their color for a moment.

There existed such a beautiful woman in the world.

All breaths were held, even among the women; such beauty transcended gender.

Even Supreme Elder Liu forgot to make a move, as the appreciation of beauty was a common human trait. Though old, he was still not immune to it.

But then everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.

Too young!

This woman looked no older than 20, possibly even younger. Yet her cultivation had reached the War General level.

Compared to her, the Four Talented of Tianhe, the Seven Stars, were simply trash.

"You... you're so young." Supreme Elder Liu quickly regained his senses, enveloped by an immense chill that paralyzed his ability to act.

Too young.

To reach the War General level at such a young age, it was impossible she cultivated on her own. What immense power might stand behind her? Just her sect or family sending an expert would at least be a War King, enough to obliterate the Sky Heart Sect instantly.

He had stirred up a hornet's nest.

What to do? What to do? What to do?

In the world of Martial Artists, there was no logic or justice. If you bullied their juniors, their elders might come with a knife to exterminate your family. If you couldn't beat them, what grievance could you call out for?

This was the supremacy of strength.

Coming out to mix, you'd have to pay back sooner or later.

Su Wanyue's beautiful face showed anger. She had worn the veil to avoid showing her true appearance. However, Supreme Elder Liu had shattered both her cloak and veil, exposing her extraordinary beauty and perfect figure to everyone.

Whoosh, she suddenly pointed at Supreme Elder Liu, exuding the aura of a queen, filled with an imposing and dignified presence.

A chill descended.

"Why did the temperature suddenly drop so much?"

"So cold."

"It seems to be snowing."

"It's really snowing."

"Although it's almost New Year, the temperature was just fine. How is it snowing?"

"Even if it's snowing, it shouldn't be so cold."

The crowd muttered, the change too eerie.

Being pointed at by Su Wanyue, Supreme Elder Liu felt a chill in his heart. He took a deep breath and asked, "Miss, who are you?"

So young and already so powerful, her temperment bore the aura of a queen, suggesting a distinguished background.

Sky Heart Sect may dominate in Tianhe County, but compared to the whole Sky Martial Star, they were just a Fifth Grade small sect, dwarfed by many stronger sects.

Su Wanyue closed her eyes slightly before reopening them, her aura transforming drastically, filled with a terrifying oppressive force. She glanced around and declared, "All War Generals, come at me together so I don't have to fight one by one."

What?

This was too arrogant.

She couldn't even handle Supreme Elder Liu moments ago, yet now wanted to take on all the Supreme Elders?

Supreme Elder Liu and the others exchanged glances, not making a move.

Previously, they thought she was an established "senior," so there was no need for courtesy. But now, it turned out she was just a girl in her twenties. Thus, her actions were driven by passion.

Would these elders bother arguing with a young girl? Most importantly, who knew what mighty figure stood behind her, making them shudder at the thought.

Su Wanyue snorted and struck.

Whoosh, a cold wind howled, and large snowflakes fell from the sky, quickly covering the ground in white.

Supreme Elder Liu had to respond, as his opponent was also a War General. While he could suppress her, he couldn't ignore her attacks. Forced to go all out, Su Wanyue's aggressive onslaught left him no choice but to fight with full strength.

Sizzling, blue thunder bolts flashed wildly.

Seeing this, the surrounding Supreme Elders thought, "Old Liu, why not let her win a few moves, pretend to leave a flaw, and then admit defeat. If she wins, her mood will improve."

Young people valued face the most. Compliment her a bit, and big issues could be made small.

Why go all out and risk bringing trouble to the Sky Heart Sect?

If Supreme Elder Liu knew what they were thinking, he would surely vomit blood in anger.

Damn it, he wanted to let her win, but her attacks suddenly became sharp and dangerous. A moment's carelessness could mean severe injury. At their level, severe injury and death were only a fine line apart. How could he afford to relax?

The only plan was to decisively defeat her, stopping her from fighting further. As long as she wasn't hurt, her backers wouldn't interfere, right?

—See, your daughter or disciple rampaged in our Sky Heart Sect, yet we sent her back unharmed, how generous of us?

Thinking this, Supreme Elder Liu went all out, his sword vibrating with power.

Although the ambient temperature plummeted and the environment seemed bizarre, his cultivation could easily withstand the cold, leaving his combat power unaffected. Su Wanyue's strength hadn't increased either, so his full effort quickly turned the tide.

Buzz.

He thrust his sword forward, but to his shock, Su Wanyue reached out with her delicate hand to grasp the blade.

Was she trying to self-harm?
