Chapter 765: Is It All An Act
Su Xuan, who had been sitting with both hands tucked in his sleeves on the throne, lifted his eyes slightly. His withered yellow hands slid out from his cuffs.
He raised a hand, and that overwhelming force evaporated without a trace.
With a flick of Su Xuan’s finger, a streak of spirit light merged into Long Hou’s body. His injuries healed in an instant, and the golden armor returned to its former state. Within that twisted space, even the bells on the hilt of Hong Zhi’s blade returned to their original form.
After that, Su Xuan looked up at the nine figures before him. All nine were old monsters in the Tribulation Realm. The finest handful the Human World had to offer.
Su Xuan smiled. But the smile was deeply unsettling.
One of the elders looked at Su Xuan and spoke in a cold voice. “Su Xuan, you have suppressed us and prevented us from ascending for no less than ten thousand years! Our ancient clans wish to emerge into the world. Will you permit it or not?”
Su Xuan clasped his hands behind his back. Without anyone noticing, an ancient, unassuming scabbard appeared in his hand.
Su Xuan appeared as though he had not heard a single word of the furious accusation.
He fixed his gaze on the foremost elder and said quietly, “Yu Wenxuan... you think you’ve touched the threshold of the Ascension Realm? Does that give you the right to yell at me? Back in the day, I could beat you until you soiled yourself. I could make you kneel and beg for your life. I can do the same today. And until I say otherwise, not one of you is getting up there!”
