Chapter 604: Senior, please make a move!

"Senior, come out!"

Su Yu's voice echoed between heaven and earth.

The middle-aged man's expression changed slightly, his aura instantly enveloping his whole body as he warily looked around.

Even his soul power burst forth, spreading throughout heaven and earth, seeking to see if anyone else was present.

However, after several dozen seconds, heaven and earth fell completely silent.

"Kid, you're messing with me!"

The middle-aged man's face instantly turned ferocious.

Su Yu's identity was inherently terrifying, so when he said those words, his first reaction was that someone really was nearby.

After all, he was the disciple of a Saint Realm expert, and even more, the junior brother of a Saint Realm expert.

With such a background, lacking a Dao Protector is really absurd.

After all, even someone with Han Jue's trashy background has a Dao Protector.

However, the fact is Su Yu truly has no Dao Protector.

First, the Azure Dragon wanted to temper Su Yu; second, the Azure Dragon was simply too lazy, even too lazy to find a Dao Protector for Su Yu.

The middle-aged man roared, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and instantly exploded.

Saying that, the middle-aged man slowly walked toward Su Yu.

His aura grew increasingly violent, even causing the space around him to slightly distort.

It seemed as if some mighty power had influenced him.

"Damn it, boss, think of a solution quick! I told you to walk slowly and you wouldn't listen; if we were in Fall Maple City, my second grandfather wouldn't kill him!"

Bai Lie's face went white from fright as he shook Su Yu's clothes, shouting desperately.

Su Yu looked at Bai Lie, feeling increasingly helpless.

He still raised his head to look at the void beyond the nine heavens, his tone growing more helpless.

"Senior, are you really not coming out? If you don't come out soon, your weird grandson will be scared to death."

As soon as those words were spoken, the middle-aged man's body, which had shot forward, jerked slightly and froze in place.

His aura once again retracted.

He glanced suspiciously around as his soul power spread like a tide, preparing to sweep again.

But this time felt exactly the same as the first.

He was simply too cautious; clearly no one had appeared the first time, yet when Su Yu spoke a second time...

... he still couldn't help but stop.

At the slightest sign of movement, he would mercilessly leave.

He wouldn't even take a single cloud with him....

However, another several dozen seconds passed.

Heaven and earth were utterly silent.

Not even a breeze stirred.

At this moment, the middle-aged man was completely enraged.

His face looked twisted, ferocious and terrifying.

"You bastard... is deceiving me fun?!"

The middle-aged man let out a low growl, his voice hoarse like a crow's.

Extremely grating.

Faced with the middle-aged man's words, Su Yu's expression remained utterly calm.

Only Bai Lie trembled, pulling at Su Yu's sleeve, his face flushed as he shouted.

"Boss, think of a solution quick! This guy is a half-step Emperor Realm; we're no match for him!"

"Damn it, I said earlier we should just stay put in Fall Maple City; with my second grandfather around, nobody would dare mess with us!"

Bai Lie's body couldn't stop shaking; even when he shouted, his voice went off-key.

Faced with Bai Lie's accusation, Su Yu felt a bit helpless, merely looking calmly at the middle-aged man.

"We won't leave; this guy won't come out—surely we can't stay in Fall Maple City forever!"

Su Yu murmured.

From the start, Su Yu knew the Yan family and the Great Wei Dynasty would certainly act against him.

When he first arrived, it was only the first wave.

To be honest, during the first wave, Su Yu hadn't expected it; after all, only the Blade Execution Hall knew when he had left.

That is to say, the first wave of assassinations indicated something.

Someone inside the Blade Execution Hall had informed them.

As for who, Su Yu didn't need to think to know.

It was none other than a member of the Flame God Squad, or perhaps the whole squad.

However, it's not important; as long as he returns and informs Xiao Yun, the Blade Execution Hall can handle this.

He wouldn't even have to violate the Blade Execution Hall's rules.

But the second wave.

Su Yu was absolutely certain someone would come.

Although he didn't know how the opponent would appear, it would definitely happen when he left Fall Maple City.

So Su Yu didn't wait long in Fall Maple City.

Instead, he left at the fastest possible speed.

As for why this is....

Su Yu's peripheral vision couldn't help but glance upward at the void above the firmament.

Because... only this way can we get that person from the Bai family to make a move!

Su Yu isn't an idiot; if he can't win, he can't force a fight, and borrowing some help isn't anything shameful.

"Sun bastard, I've already been tricked by you twice—great!"

The middle-aged man sneered, with endless law power swirling within his body.

If Su Yu's law power were merely a pond, then the law power of this middle-aged man before him would be as vast as the sea.

Extremely surging.

Even....

Within that extremely rich law power, there were also profound undulations spreading out.

Half-step Imperial Realm—he has already begun to touch the Imperial Realm, so his combat power is naturally even more terrifying than that of a peak Venerable.

"Today... I'll make you wish you were dead!"

The middle-aged man growled low, his eyes filled with endless killing intent.

As his aura surged, even the surrounding void trembled slightly.

He also couldn't be bothered to wait any longer; his figure shot out again, aiming straight at Su Yu.

As for Bai Lie... we'll just take care of him along the way.

Boom—!!

Amidst the swirling aura, rumbles echoed repeatedly.

Terrifying law power surged forth like dragons, roaring and churning across the void.

Even the entire void twisted slightly.

"It's over, it's over—I'm really going to die this time, boss; I've really been screwed by you."

"I still have loads of secret money left to spend, and there are so many beautiful girls waiting for me!"

"Boss, if we end up in the underworld, you better come with me, or I won't let you off!"

Bai Lie said miserably.

Su Yu gave Bai Lie, who was clinging to his thigh, a strange look—he never expected this guy's reaction to be so huge.

It's just a half-step Imperial Realm... your second grandfather is still up there watching!

Su Yu helplessly shook his head, took a deep breath, and didn't even pay attention to the middle-aged man's figure.

He simply stared straight at the void above the firmament and spoke softly.

"Senior, if you don't come out, your dear grandson is really going to die—I'm not joking, and that guy probably isn't joking either!"

Hearing Su Yu's words, Bai Lie's reaction grew even stronger.

"Boss, we're going so fast—how would my second grandfather know? He's so old, his legs aren't convenient; how could he possibly keep up?"

Bai Lie kept shaking Su Yu's thigh, "Boss, you really miscalculated this time—we're done for!"

The middle-aged man snorted coldly, his body showing no pause.

"You really think I'll let myself be tricked a third time?"

"Today, you will surely die!"

The middle-aged man bellowed and thrust a punch horizontally outward.

The terrifying fist imprint instantly exploded between heaven and earth.

Moreover, dazzling flames burned above the firmament, scorching the void as well.

Blaze—!!

The flames raged, as if they wanted to completely incinerate Su Yu and Bai Lie.

"Ah!"

An aged voice rang out.

Between heaven and earth, a profound undulation instantly spread throughout.

It tightly wrapped Su Yu, Bai Lie, and the middle-aged man.

It was as if a massive prison had formed.

Within that prison, the flames faded bit by bit, and the temperature returned to normal.

The middle-aged man's body, at that moment, was as if a pause button had been pressed.

Stiffly suspended in midair.

His body trembled slightly, but he couldn't make any larger movement.

"Huh?"

Bai Lie stared blankly at the scene before him.

His small eyes were full of surprise.

"What is this guy doing? Is he putting on a acrobatic show for us?"

Bai Lie slowly rose to his feet, couldn't help but stare at the middle-aged man, and even plucked up the courage to walk slowly up to him.

Facing the middle-aged man's murderous glare, he suddenly chuckled, "Yo, boss, this guy really can't move."

Saying that, he extended his chubby finger and lightly poked the middle-aged man's body.

"Heh heh, it's actually quite fun."

Bai Lie just stood there, foolishly grinning while poking the middle-aged man for fun.

Su Yu watched the scene, his expression slightly sinking into silence.

At that moment, in the space beside Su Yu, the Bai family's grand elder gradually appeared, looking at Bai Lie's appearance, his face also grew slightly solemn.

You little brat, how childish you are, do you know that?

It seems... I know a little bit...

The Grand Elder stared blankly at Bai Lie.

Clearly, when at home, the little fatty was very smart; even when keeping accounts, he had inherited the White Family's fine tradition.

But for some unknown reason, Bai Lie at this moment....

He had become like a complete idiot...

Hmm....

Su Yu responded silently with a sentence.

Finally, he coughed a bout.

At this moment, Bai Lie finally came to, looked at the Grand Elder, and his eyes lit up.

Second Grandfather!

Hahaha, I knew it; it's my Second Grandfather who loves me, unlike my father, who would definitely not come to save me.

Bai Lie cheered and was about to run over.

The Grand Elder sighed, extended his palm, and firmly pressed Bai Lie in front of him.

I don't have you as my grandson... oh wait, you were never my biological grandson to begin with.

The Grand Elder said gloomily.

Bai Lie's little gaze grew even more bewildered; he truly didn't know that in just a few short hours, he, the sole heir of the White Family, had actually fallen out of favor.

Hiss!

Explosive news!

"Cough cough cough, tell me, why do you think I need to intervene? Clearly, the last two times I didn't even move."

The Grand Elder coughed once, shifted the topic, moved his gaze onto Su Yu, and asked curiously.

Originally, he had planned to intervene when Su Yu could no longer hold out, after all, delivering charcoal in the snow is absolutely the perfect ending.

But Su Yu seemed to have anticipated that he would intervene, so he simply didn't lift a hand, thus leaving the Yan Family's "traitor" bewildered.

Su Yu said calmly, "I've brought Bai Lie along; if you old man don't intervene, your White Family will be cut off!"

Extinct!

Those two words instantly pierced the Grand Elder's heart.

The Grand Elder's mouth twitched slightly, then he said, "If there's no Bai Lie, do you think I would intervene?"

The Grand Elder was somewhat curious.

Su Yu glanced at the Grand Elder, pondered a moment, then said, "I died near Maple Fall City, and Bai Lie is my teammate. If I were to die, given my teacher's temperament, he would surely fly into a rage."

"Based on my interactions with my teacher, although Maple Fall City is within the territory of Great Wei, this time the White Family's auction has also drawn them in."

"Perhaps they will also incur my teacher's wrath, and the White Family's people, aside from this little fatty, appear sharp-witted; they shouldn't be so foolish, and should intervene."

Listening to Su Yu's explanation, the Grand Elder fell silent.

Indeed, the Azure Dragon Sage's temper is extremely volatile, even unpredictable.

Even the White Family is unwilling to take this risk.

Once Su Yu encounters any mishap, Great Wei will surely collapse.

And when the White Family gets implicated, even if they don't intervene, given the Azure Dragon Sage's unreasonable nature, they will still suffer heavy losses.

Don't think that Great Wei and the White Family both possess sage-level strength.

But in this world, those who can defeat the Azure Dragon Sage are, aside from that one arm of the Divine Spirit Abyss, very few.

Perhaps the Grand Hall Master of the Blade-Wielding Hall has a chance, the Hall Master of the Holy Palace has a chance, the Underworld King of the Nine Netherworld Purgatory has a chance.

But the White Family is certainly no match.

For a moment, the Grand Elder gazed gloomily at Bai Lie.

With an expression that seemed to say, "Look at others, then look at you."

However, what greeted the Grand Elder was still Bai Lie's bewildered expression.

In that moment, the Grand Elder felt somewhat weary.

"Forget it; I originally thought of delivering charcoal in the snow, so that you brat would owe the White Family a favor, but who knew you little rascal would be so cunning."

The Grand Elder also felt somewhat helpless.

This was still the first time the Grand Elder's calculations came to naught.

Su Yu gave a slight smile, bowed to the Grand Elder, and said, "This time I still thank the Grand Elder for intervening; I will remember the White Family's favor, but this guy..."

"Grand Elder, could you help me with a favor?"

Su Yu's gaze fell upon the middle-aged man.

His eyes were somewhat excited.

Sensing Su Yu's excited gaze, the middle-aged man's body trembled instantly, as if he had seen something horrifying.

"Go ahead and speak!"

The Grand Elder was also somewhat curious, wondering how Su Yu wanted to deal with this guy.

Su Yu smiled faintly, "Since he's a traitor of the Yan Family, please, Grand Elder, help me shatter his soul and spirit while preserving his body."

Su Yu's smile was extremely gentle, yet saying such words under that smile...

... also turned somewhat chilling.
