Chapter 1806 - 1805: Divine Master
Upon hearing that this valley might actually be the Turquoise Pool, Su Yang was shocked beyond words.
"This valley is actually the Turquoise Pool?" Everyone exchanged glances, this news was truly too astounding.
"According to the situation described by Su Yang, it indeed should be like this." Black Widow nodded, "The sky hangs upside down, heavenly phenomena occur, and no one can enter — that is the legendary appearance of the Turquoise Pool."
The crowd exchanged looks, none of them had heard of this legend before, so naturally, they did not know these details.
Su Yang had absolute trust in his sister. He took a deep breath and said solemnly, "So these winged cultivators are here for the treasures left by the Queen Mother of the West?"
"I'm afraid it's not just them!" Black Widow said seriously, "The people from the Divine Master might have the same goals. These people are mixed, and very mysterious, we have to be cautious!"
Su Yang slowly nodded, he agreed very much with Black Widow's words. After all, on the Divine Master's side, even people like Liao Yuxuan and Liu Shuangcan are willing to be under their command, truly a mixed group that must be guarded against!
"If that's really the case, then the conflict between these two groups is probably due to the treasures left by the Queen Mother of the West!" Lv Donglin said excitedly, "Then we don't need to make a move in haste, let's let them bite each other and then clean up the mess?"
"That's not appropriate!" Black Widow shook her head, "We are just speculating about the Divine Master's group's motives; we don't yet know their true purpose. Whether this group is good or bad, we cannot conclude for now. So the best approach is to investigate this matter thoroughly first."
Su Yang nodded, he still agreed with his sister's suggestion.
"Let's continue interrogating these two winged cultivators. I don't believe they will have that firm a mouth!" Lv Donglin said.
Su Yang finally remembered that he still had these two winged cultivators at his side, maybe he could extract some information from them.
However, after some efforts, Su Yang ultimately gave up. As Qi Xuan had said before, these two winged cultivators indeed had very firm mouths. Su Yang used many methods from the Heavenly Destiny Treasure Book but still couldn't force them to comply. These two seemed to hold some special belief in their hearts and managed to withstand all of Su Yang's punishments.
There was no choice, Su Yang could only have these two winged cultivators temporarily detained here. As for the matters outside, he had to investigate them himself.
Of course, Black Widow had already had people contact other sects and experts, all standing guard at the exit. If Su Yang went out to investigate and encountered any danger, he could return to the World Melting Furnace at any time, where Black Widow and her team could promptly help Su Yang.
Walking out of the World Melting Furnace, Su Yang continued to hide in the shadows for observation.
Mr. Jin Ye and his group had retreated, having dealt with several batches of people, now suffering severe losses, they had to return to recuperate.
Such great battles were happening all around this valley. Soon, those winged cultivators also received the news, and those who had initially come out to find a path into the valley all retreated, no longer acting alone outside.
Su Yang observed for less than three hours, and battles ceased happening in the surroundings. These winged cultivators suffered significant losses, while the Divine Master side fared better since they had come prepared, thus having minimal losses, though some were injured.
Those winged cultivators were clearly furious after suffering such setbacks. They stopped walking separately, instead gathering as one, circling the valley to search for the Divine Master's group, ready to unite and annihilate them.
Su Yang remained hidden, neither daring to approach the Divine Master's group nor the winged cultivators. Thus, he could only temporarily distance himself from the valley's edge, choosing a more remote place to observe the situation.
When the winged cultivators began searching the surroundings of the valley, the Divine Master group also acted. They did not flee but chose to hide in one of the mountain peaks, seemingly preparing to ambush the winged cultivators.
Su Yang hid far away, watching the winged cultivators gradually approach, as he silently calculated the strength of both sides. The Divine Master's group should have inferior strength compared to the winged cultivators, so would this ambush be effective?
While Su Yang was observing the movements of both sides, a voice suddenly sounded behind him: "Su Alliance Leader, hello!"
Su Yang was startled, the voice came from less than ten meters behind him. The fact that someone could reach this position without him noticing showed how strong the opponent was. If they wanted to attack him, this could have cost Su Yang his life!
Given Su Yang's current strength, not even someone as strong as his sister Black Widow could achieve this. Was it possible that this person's strength exceeded Black Widow, comparable to Beigong War God and the like?
Though shocked inside, Su Yang maintained a very steady expression on his face. Since his strength was far from rivaling theirs, showing shock was not meaningful; it was better to exhibit some composure.
Turning back to glance, he saw standing less than ten meters behind him a moderately built, ordinary-looking man.
The man seemed to be around thirty or forty years old, appearing quite mundane, belonging to the type one could find abundantly by the roadside.
However, Su Yang did not dare to underestimate him at all. From this man's person, Su Yang felt no power fluctuation, which was extremely rare for someone like Su Yang, who practiced the Devouring Secret Technique. Thus, the opponent's strength was very likely at the level of Beigong War God and others!
In the current Kunlun Mountain, there seemed to be such an expert, and they even addressed Su Yang by name right away, which made Su Yang have to be on guard.
"You know me?" Su Yang asked calmly, while quietly observing the surroundings to see if this man brought others.
The man remained composed, smiling faintly, "Su Alliance Leader is renowned across the lands, the hope of Qinghe Academy, I have long admired Su Alliance Leader!"
"Sir, you flatter me!" Su Yang was not swayed by these flowery words, merely asking calmly, "May I know your respected name, sir?"
"A worldly name, not worth mentioning, long forgotten over millennia." The man smiled faintly, "My friends were gracious enough to give me a new name. If you don't mind, Su Alliance Leader, you can call me the Divine Master!"
