Urban Invincible Overlord

Chapter 1617 - 1614: Su Baili Takes a Stand



Although Shen Wanjing was merely a virtual apparition in the sky, the virtual pressure released by his presence as a Half Step Dao Unity expert was undeniable, even as Li Shuya and Su Baili discerned it; they still felt discomfort.

There’s no need to mention the cultivators below the Divinity Transformation Realm.

Even formidable figures like Ling Shuanghua and Ye Xiaojun, with their Late-stage Nascent Soul cultivation, secretly shuddered with a fear that dared not look directly at Shen Wanjing’s immense virtual image.

Li Shuya gave Yang Fei a deep look, silently praising him.

This kid was indeed clever, knowing the urgency of today’s situation, he had decisively used the jade scroll Shen Wanjing had gifted him.

At the same time, he marveled silently at how Shen Wanjing, the dignified Lord of Shifang City, one of the top figures in the Southern Domain’s cultivation world, commanding respect even in other Star Domains, could treat Yang Fei with such importance, appearing immediately upon learning of his danger.

The decision to protect Yang Fei was undoubtedly correct.

Ling Shuanghua and other masters from the Flame Moon Sect were utterly shocked upon hearing Shen Wanjing’s words.

Many people secretly glanced at Yang Fei.

Who would have thought he could earn such attention from someone like Shen Wanjing?

It was truly enviable.

Possessing an incredible cultivation talent was one thing, but he was also the Closed-door Disciple of Master Wan.

And yet, he received such significant regard from Shen Wanjing.

Such backing and support!

Truly the pinnacle of favor!

In the vast Southern Domain cultivation world, even the top Second Generation Immortals are outshone by him, aren’t they?

Especially Ling Shuanghua, who silently glanced at Yang Fei, knowing from this moment onward, even though she was at a Late-stage Nascent Soul cultivation, the Sect Master of Flame Moon Sect, she must afford Yang Fei sufficient respect in future encounters.

No one was more shocked than Su Baili.

He never expected Shen Wanjing, not those old acquaintances from Shang Qing Sect, would arrive first after he’d acted against Yang Fei.

And the other party was protecting Yang Fei so fervently.

Uh, not entirely correct!

It wasn’t Shen Wanjing himself; it was but a virtual image formed by Primordial Spirit.

Of course, even if it was just a virtual image formed by Primordial Spirit, it still had a powerful deterrent effect on cultivators below the Divinity Transformation Realm.

But for a level of expert like Su Baili, a mere phantom silhouette was insufficient to intimidate him.

Furthermore, with so many people from Flame Moon Sect watching, how could he surrender meekly after Shen Wanjing spoke so dismissively?

After a brief shock, Su Baili’s gaze sharpened as he coldly said, "So it’s the Lord of Shifang City. Hmph, whether I knew of your connection with this junior or not matters not. Now that both my granddaughter and Senior Brother Jiang Daozu’s granddaughters might have been harmed by this junior, I can’t possibly let him go unless he reveals my granddaughter’s whereabouts."

He didn’t mention Yang Fei’s origins from Earth, nor his pursuit of Earth cultivation resources and genetic liquid medicine, instead he simply asserted Yang Fei’s involvement in the disappearance of his granddaughter and Jiang Xinyun with certainty.

After all, Shen Wanjing was merely a virtual image on site, who promptly nodded and looked at Yang Fei, asking, "Yang Fei, is it true what he said about his missing granddaughter being related to you?"

Yang Fei immediately shook his head, "That’s impossible. I don’t even know his granddaughter; he just came here accusing me of being involved in her disappearance, isn’t that slander?"

Su Baili stared icily at Yang Fei, "Boy, you dare argue? My granddaughter and Jiang Xinyun lost contact nearby, their Life Soul Lamps flickering, signifying danger. According to my Soul Search on the woman named Linglong, you possess two Supreme Treasures, one capturing Divine Souls, the other suppressing powerful cultivators’ bodies. If my guess is correct, you must have used these treasures to suppress them, right?"

"That’s just your unilateral speculation, without evidence, it’s defamation and slander." Yang Fei replied.

He would never admit it, come what may.

Let alone it’s mere speculation.

Even if Mu Qingchuan, a firsthand witness, appeared and pointed him out, Yang Fei would never admit it.

In any case, the Soul Binding Rope and Ten Directions Heavenly Furnace would not be handed over, as long as they remain untouchable, so what if Su Baili is a Late-stage Peak of Divinity Transformation Realm expert, he couldn’t discover that Su Jingshu and Jiang Xinyun were suppressed by him.

Meanwhile, he secretly regretted, if he had known, he should’ve used this time to return to Earth and completely obliterate those two women’s Divine Souls and bodies.

Instead, now due to the special functions of those two treasures, Su Baili suspected him.

"Regarding my granddaughter’s life and death, how could I be fooled by your mere words? Boy, I guarantee no harm will come to you, but you must allow me to use Soul Searching Technique on you. Once proven unrelated to my granddaughter and Jiang’s girl’s disappearance, I will leave immediately, without further word." Su Baili insisted strongly.

Yang Fei scoffed, "Attempting to search my soul, no chance."

Previously with Li Shuya present, the other party couldn’t perform Soul Search on him, now Shen Wanjing had arrived, what should he fear?

Li Shuya knew Shen Wanjing was merely a phantom and posed no real threat to Su Baili, he immediately stood vigilantly in front of Yang Fei.

Su Baili’s mind raced rapidly, quickly making a decision.

Suddenly he released his strongest pressure, his gaze fixed on Yang Fei, his figure flickered and disappeared from his original spot.

Li Shuya was extremely tense, grasping Yang Fei’s arm in protection.

But in the next instant, he was enraged, "Scoundrel, how dare you!"

At the same time, Ye Xiaojun exclaimed with a cry of rage.

She was seen being violently thrown back with a pale complexion.

Because at that moment, Su Baili wasn’t heading towards Yang Fei; he unexpectedly attacked Li Muchen.

Even though Li Muchen had just stepped into Core Formation Stage, against Su Baili’s surprise assault, he didn’t have a chance to react, being pinched by the throat and controlled.

The only one who reacted in time was Ye Xiaojun, but, despite their differences in cultivation levels, was blown away by Su Baili’s simplest magic technique, severely injured.

"Chenchen!"

Ye Xiaojun was horrified, glaring at Su Baili with both shock and anger, "Su Baili, dare harm my son, I swear to pursue your Su Family descendants endlessly, I refuse to believe you can protect them for a lifetime."

Su Baili snorted coldly, disregarding Ye Xiaojun, his gaze coldly locking onto Li Shuya, "Li Shuya, this is between me and that boy, if you intervene further, I’ll make you experience the pain of a parent burying a child once more."

Li Shuya was both shocked and furious.

Never did he expect Su Baili, a Late Stage Peak of Divinity Transformation Realm expert, to behave so vilely before so many people.

He had only Li Muchen as a son, especially since Li Muchen had just entered Core Formation Stage, with a lifespan of hundreds of years ahead, how could he allow his son to die here?

"Quickly decide, don’t think of stalling, I lack patience for that." Su Baili barked sternly, urging.
