Chapter 241: Plotting Absolute Suppression Ability

Lin Yang narrowed his eyes, thinking silently.

Jiang Tamu's analysis indeed made some sense.

He asked, "What exactly are they plotting? What kind of scheme are they hatching?"

"This surely hides a deeper secret; the Seamless Sect always acts mysteriously, they would never come to Azure Prefecture for no reason." Jiang Tamu shook his head helplessly.

He indicated that he also knew nothing.

Immediately, he gave a wry smile and continued, "Peak Master, the Seamless Sect's waters run too deep; their schemes aren't something we can easily see through."

"However, since they've come to Azure Prefecture, we must stay on guard; we'll need to plan carefully moving forward."

The room fell silent again.

Only the tea fragrance still lingered in the air, blending with the quiet night.

Lin Yang leaned back in his chair, eyes half-closed.

His mind continually pondered the Seamless Sect's purpose and the secret of the Azure-Verdant Realm.

He knew a great storm might be imminent.

He and the Azure Cloud Sect had already been drawn into the storm's center.

As Lin Yang was lost in thought, a night breeze blew by, causing the candlelight to flicker violently.

A clear, pleasant voice suddenly came from the doorway.

"I know."

This sudden voice made Lin Yang's mind ring with an ethereal tone.

It was as if a flash of insight struck him, shaking his whole body.

His train of thought was instantly pulled away from his contemplation of the Seamless Sect's complex schemes.

He instinctively glanced around; the candlelight swayed gently with the night breeze, shadows wavered eerily on the walls, and the tea fragrance continued to drift softly in the quiet air.

Meanwhile, Jiang Tamu beside him remained sitting there, dazed and expressionless, as if he hadn't heard any sound at all.

He remained immersed in his worries about the situation.

Lin Yang immediately composed himself and softly asked without hesitation, "System, tell me, what do you know?"

Although the System's voice was faint, it lingered in Lin Yang's ears; there was no need to think—this was the "I know."

Naturally, it was transmitted by the System.

In an instant, the System's signature interface appeared in Lin Yang's mind.

Afterwards, the System spoke solemnly.

【It's simple; they are naturally plotting that Absolute Suppression Ability.】

Upon hearing that,

Lin Yang staggered, his mind filled with a mist that prevented him from fully grasping it for a moment.

He involuntarily repeated his question to the System: "Absolute Suppression Ability?"

His voice full of confusion, this Absolute Suppression Ability—he only knew a bit about it from the System's rewards—how could it be linked to the Seamless Sect?

The System replied: 【Yes, it's that Absolute Suppression Ability.】

That tone was certain, as if it were obvious beyond doubt.

And each word of the System's words resonated clearly in Lin Yang's mind.

Lin Yang was full of doubt, various thoughts intertwining in his mind.

He couldn't help but ask, "Isn't that ability a System reward?"

"How would they know about the System-rewarded ability?"

This doubt was like a stone dropped into the heart's lake, sending ripples outward.

In his understanding, System rewards were his exclusive opportunity; now being coveted by external forces was truly unfathomable.

The System chuckled, its laugh hinting at mystery, as if unveiling a long-buried secret.

【Host, you might have a misunderstanding; the items of System rewards are not given by the System.】

Lin Yang grew more curious: "Not given by the System?"

The System spoke slowly, each word like a key.

【These System rewards all come from this fantasy world; thus, some of the rewarded items may have been coveted by others, which is normal.】

Lin Yang suddenly understood, nodded without thinking, and thought to himself.

No wonder the Seamless Sect didn't focus on Central Prefecture but fixed on this Azure Prefecture; it seems they're after that Absolute Suppression.

Moreover, the so-called System rewards are merely treasures and opportunities inherent in this fantasy world, merely linked to him through the System's form.

And this Absolute Suppression Ability possesses the power to overturn heaven and earth; it's only natural that the Seamless Sect covets it.

However, a resolve surged in Lin Yang's heart.

This Absolute Suppression Ability must be mine alone.

The System naturally sensed Lin Yang's thoughts, as if it could discern every flicker of his emotion.

After a moment, the System slowly spoke.

【Host, the System must mention that, due to the Seamless Sect's sudden intrusion, obtaining the Absolute Suppression Ability may not be so easy.】

Then the System's voice grew grave: 【Even the Host might become the target of everyone's hostility, even face off against the Seamless Sect; Host, are you prepared?】

Upon hearing the System's words, Lin Yang merely gave a light smile, full of confidence and heroism.

He slightly raised his head, gaze through the window toward the endless night sky, as if seeing the impending challenges.

Then he continued, speaking lightly: "Absolute Suppression Ability, I must obtain it."

"As for becoming everyone's enemy and facing off against the Seamless Sect, I don't care at all."

His voice was firm and powerful, responding to the System.

After all.

The people of the Mysterious Yellow Continent, he feared nothing; years of cultivation and tempering gave him the courage to face anything.

The goal of the Uninterrupted Gate is also to unify the Mysterious Yellow Continent; their goal is the same as his.

Between him and the Uninterrupted Gate, there will inevitably be a battle, so there's no need to worry about it.

His main purpose now is to obtain that absolute suppressive power at the Azure Prefecture Grand Competition tomorrow.

Thus, no matter who the opponent is, he has the strength to fight.

If that absolute suppressive power were to fall into the hands of the Uninterrupted Gate, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Even his own plan to unify the Mysterious Yellow Continent would be obstructed.

Even the Azure Cloud Sect and the people he cares about will be implicated.

This is not what he wants to see, and moreover he is the protagonist of this world, supreme and alone.

Now, facing the potential threat of the Uninterrupted Gate,

He has no intention of retreating in the slightest.

On the contrary, a strong fighting spirit surged in his heart.
