Chapter 93: Chapter 093: Battle of the Top Five, Unfair Rules
His whole body shook violently, as Sui Yu stared deeply at Sikong Jing, suddenly understanding his meaning.
"In the eyes of Yang Tianmo and others, my Dantian and meridians were destroyed, and moreover, they were taken in a way that made recovery impossible."
As Sikong Jing’s voice fell, Sui Yu widened his eyes in disbelief.
To have Dantian and meridians directly excavated, how could one continue to live?
"However, I have now recovered—no one would think that I could restore and cultivate anew." Sikong Jing said this and then asked, "What do you think, how long will it take for me to return to the Transcendent Peak?"
If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, Sui Yu wouldn’t have believed that a person whose Dantian was taken could recover.
He excitedly held up three fingers but then immediately lowered one.
Sikong Jing nodded deeply, "Two years, perhaps even less than two years. Can you wait that long?"
"I, of course I can wait," Sui Yu replied without hesitation.
Pulling him to his feet, Sikong Jing spoke again forcefully, "The brothers and sisters in prison, try to save each one you can, but don’t take risks. You must stay alive and not expose yourself, understand?"
"I believe our brothers and sisters also absolutely do not want to see you in prison."
Bowing profoundly, Sui Yu understood the weight he had to carry.
At that moment, Sikong Jing punched Sui Yu in the chest, laughing loudly, "It won’t be long before we drink merrily together, eat heartily... and slay thousands of enemies together!"
"Thank you for letting me know that not everyone has betrayed me."
After speaking, Sikong Jing turned away again, looking toward the direction of the Martial Arts Arena, "And thank you for keeping me from having to leave my family."
With the arrival of Sui Yu, he could temporarily stay in Yunye City.
As he said, the matter of killing two members of the Shadow Sect could be handled with excuses by Sui Yu, Yunzhou is far from the emperor’s reach, and Sui Yu could twist the events that happened here into what he wants Yan Ruyu to see.
Of course, this was hazardous, but Sikong Jing and Sui Yu had no other choices.
If he truly became a fugitive, the brothers and sisters still in prison would die, they would be dragged out one by one by Yan Ruyu to force him to show himself, and even Su Yuexi and his parents-in-law could face disaster.
"Family?" Sui Yu looked puzzled.
Sikong Jing smiled and said, "Wait and you will know. Come with me to the Martial Arts Arena first."
Saying this, the two of them stepped forward, heading towards the Martial Arts Arena.
The corpses of the two from the Shadow Sect would naturally be taken care of cleanly by Sui Yu’s subordinates, leaving no trace.
As Sikong Jing and Sui Yu marched, the rain stopped, and golden sunlight spread over Yunye City.
At the same time, within the Martial Arts Arena.
The City Lord’s Guard Officer stepped up, shouting loudly, "Now, please welcome back the top five talents to the arena."
The top ten battles had concluded, determining the five strongest young talents of Yunye City, but Yunye only had three spots in the great Yunzhou competition, so two more must be eliminated.
Under the watchful eyes of the Su Zhenglong couple, Su Yuexi climbed onto the platform.
She still stood alone on one side, while the other four leaders whispered among themselves, staring at Su Yuexi and laughing scornfully.
Among the four, two were from the Chu Family, while the other two were from the Hai Family and the Ren Family.
The City Guard Captain eyed the five slowly and said gently, "The rule for the next battle of the top five will be: a free-for-all."
With these words, everyone’s hearts tightened, exchanging glances.
"All five of you will be on the platform, fighting in a melee until two fall."
"During this time, you cannot surrender or leave the platform; you must fight to the very last moment."
Whish...
As the City Lord’s Guard Officer’s voice fell, a gasp swept through the crowd. It was too thrilling; it was definitely a bloodbath!
However, Su Zhenglong’s face turned pale instantly.
He suddenly stood up, and loudly questioned, "Guard Officer Sir, this is not fair. If four of them team up to take down one person first, won’t that just waste a top talent?"
Upon hearing this, Mei Xiaofang, who had not reacted yet, immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
Damn it, the four of them are all from the Three Great Families. They’re definitely going to team up and take out Yue Xi first.
This so-called rule was targeting Su Yuexi, targeting his own daughter.
Mei Xiaofang glared fiercely at Su Xuefeng, who returned a look and revealed an extremely smug smile.
On the stage, the City Lord’s Guard Officer gave Su Zhenglong a glance and indifferently replied, "Then you can only blame that person for not being talented enough. If he reached Yunzhou’s tournament, he would just bring shame upon Yunye City."
His voice was cold and heartless.
Grinding his teeth, Su Zhenglong growled, "Even if he is embarrassing, he is stronger than the other three!"
At these words, the City Lord’s Guard Officer glared over and coldly said, "These are the rules set by the City Lord. You have no right to object. If you dare to speak out again, believe it or not, I will make you visit the City Lord Mansion."
Su Zhenglong shivered all over. Clearly, the City Lord was siding with the Four Great Families.
This so-called rule for the top five battle was premeditated.
"Big brother, I advise you better not continue speaking. It wouldn’t be good if it worsens your injury," Su Zhengtao came over cheerfully with mockery written all over his face.
Across him, the Patriarch of the Chu Family, Chu Rongxian, also spoke with a laugh, "Su Zhenglong, do not disrupt the normal progression of the selection."
Hai Ke, his body wrapped in bandages, chuckled, "Su Zhenglong, you should have let your eldest daughter compete. She is at the Peak of the Human Realm and could definitely easily defeat the four of them."
At this point, Hai Ke’s gaze shifted and he could not find Su Yue Immortal anywhere.
Then, the City Lord’s Guard Officer commanded again, "Men, secure the arena. Anyone who dares to break through the arena will be killed without mercy. Also, throw back anyone who steps down from the arena without exhausting their fighting strength."
Whirr...
A group of City Lord’s Guards appeared from all directions, thoroughly surrounding the arena.
After securing the area, the City Lord’s Guard Officer then announced, "The last selection battle officially begins."
As his words fell, there was a crisp clanging sound.
Four young talents from the Three Great Families drew their weapons, all of them looking at Su Yuexi with sneers.
Soon, a young man from the Hai Family lightly shouted, "Together, don’t give her any chance."
All four moved towards Su Yuexi simultaneously, the strongest among them being from the Dark Realm Fourth Level and the weakest from the Dark Realm Third Level... while Su Yuexi, at the Dark Realm Fifth Level, stood no chance against the four of them.
Fearfully gripping the icy blue sword in her hand, Su Yuexi kept retreating until she reached the edge of the arena.
"Kill!"
Together, the four of them charged at Su Yuexi.
And Su Yuexi could only grit her teeth and fend them off with her sword.
But her combat experience was too weak. She stood no chance against the four, and she was quickly put in grave danger.
A young man from the Hai Family shouted loudly, "Su Yuexi, once the ugliest girl in Yunzhou, now Yunzhou’s First Beauty, we won’t let you fall so easily. We will surely fulfill Brother Hai Ke’s wish... to play with you until you break down."
Swoosh, a sword cut open the cloth on Su Yuexi’s arm, leaving a red line on her hand.
Faint blood seeped out.
