Supreme Warrior in the City-Chapter 2330: Extorting the Envoys

"The envoy of the Saint King has arrived, and you dare not come to greet him. Isn’t this considered disrespect?" a Saint Venerable shouted angrily.

"Then let me ask, I was in closed-door training, how could I know the envoy of the Saint King had arrived?" Su Yang replied, "Did you first send someone to inform me, or did a letter arrive first? If there was any of these, and I did not greet him, then it would indeed be my fault. But if you have nothing and just say I didn’t greet him, isn’t that a bit too far-fetched? The Saint King appointed you as envoys to facilitate communication between us Saint Venerables and the Saint King, not to wield power like a chicken feather as a command arrow, ordering us Saint Venerables around, and certainly not to randomly accuse others!"

"What did you say!" The leading Saint Venerable was furious: "Saint Venerable Jiushi, how dare you speak like this, it’s simply an insult to the Saint King. Fine, since you are so arrogant, we shan’t go down. We will report back to the Saint King, I want to see how many lives you have to dare insult the Saint King like this!"

After saying this, the Saint Venerable was about to turn and leave.

"Fine then!" Su Yang chuckled lightly, "Please, do as you wish, but you have things to say, and so do I. Reporting to the Saint King, do you think I can’t do it? You leave, I’ll leave too, we’ll set off together, I want to see who can reach the Saint King first. Also, I want to see how the Saint King will judge this matter!"

After finishing his words, Su Yang took out the Round Disc and said coldly, "Long Qiu, guard this place, I will personally go to meet the Saint King!"

Long Qiu was dumbfounded; he hadn’t expected Su Yang to blow things up to this extent, to escalate it all the way to the Saint King. Previously, which Saint Venerable dared do such a thing? Those Saint Venerables, upon seeing the envoy of the Saint King, were all terrified like quails, became docile after being scolded a few times, and took out all their treasures for the envoys to pick.

Now, Su Yang was doing the complete opposite. Not only did he not fear these envoys, he even wanted to escalate the matter to the Saint King; this was too formidable.

At this time, the envoys who were originally planning to leave in the air also stopped. The five of them looked at each other, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

When they usually came down, they relied on the title of the Saint King to racketeer many good things.

They knew Su Yang was a newly promoted Saint Venerable who had killed several others, surely possessing many treasures. Therefore, they deliberately stoked trouble, intending to extort some from Su Yang.

But who could have imagined that Su Yang would be so assertive, not threatened by them at all. Not only did he not succumb, but he also wanted to personally go to find the Saint King. If this matter escalates to the Saint King, all five of them definitely won’t benefit at all!

"Saint Venerable Jiushi, how daring you are to go find the Saint King!" the leading Saint Venerable shouted angrily, "Fine, then I’ll watch and see if the Saint King will believe you or us!"

The implication was clear: we five follow closely beside the Saint King, and you are just a remote Saint Venerable. Will the Saint King choose to believe you or us?

"Hehe..." Su Yang sneered, waving his hand. Suddenly, a recording appeared in the air, displaying what these five Saint Venerables had done and said here earlier.

This recording was obtained by Su Yang using a Spiritual Source earlier, fully reflecting the situation at the time.

The five Saint Venerables nearly bulged their eyes out; they hadn’t expected Su Yang to be this generous. In such circumstances, using a Spiritual Source to record the situation.

Thus, they also panicked. If this matter truly escalates to the Saint King, once this recording is shown, the five of them absolutely won’t be able to handle it.

If the Saint King learns about their misuse of power outside, he definitely won’t spare them!

"Ji... Jiushi, what do you intend to do..." The leading Saint Venerable’s voice trembled: "Why did you record this?"

"You need evidence to speak, don’t you?" Su Yang replied with a chuckle, "Going to see the Saint King, after watching this, who do you think the Saint King will believe?"

The five Saint Venerables looked at each other, isn’t it obvious?

"No, we... we were just joking with you, you... you didn’t have to go this far!" the lead Saint Venerable quickly said, "Brother Jiushi, we’re all on the same side, so why all this fuss? Okay, everyone stop messing around, come on, Brother Jiushi, delete the recording, let’s have a good drink as brothers!"

"No need!" Su Yang immediately refused, "I’ve decided to meet the Saint King, let’s not waste time. Long Qiu, guard this place, I’m off to see the Saint King!"

Long Qiu now had more confidence too, enthusiastically stating, "Alright, Saint Venerable, rest assured, I’ll definitely guard Liu Yao City well!"

Su Yang flew straight into the air, slicing through the Void with the Round Disc, pretending to enter. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

"Lord Jiushi!" The five Saint Venerables hurried over, blocking Su Yang.

"What? Are you planning to make a move?" Su Yang looked at the five Saint Venerables with a half-smile: "Fighting, I have never been afraid, are you sure you want to fight?"

The five Saint Venerables exchanged glances, each shocked in their hearts. They had already heard about the legends of Su Yang upon coming here, and dared not fight him.

"Lord Jiushi, we... we were wrong..." The lead Saint Venerable pleaded tremblingly, "Could you be magnanimous and forgive us..."

"Wrong?" Su Yang sneered, "Making a mistake in front of me comes with a cost!"

The five Saint Venerables exchanged glances once more; finally, the lead Saint Venerable understood Su Yang’s meaning and quickly brought out a Space Artifact.

"Ah, coming in haste, we forgot to present Lord Jiushi with a gift. A small token of respect, please accept it, Lord Jiushi!"

Long Qiu below watched gleefully; Su Yang was probably the first among Saint Venerables to extract tribute from envoys.

Su Yang took the Space Artifact, glanced at it, and promptly tossed it to the side.

"Your token is truly insignificant!" Su Yang said coldly, "Since you show no sincerity, let’s part ways as non-brothers!"

"No no no..." The lead Saint Venerable quickly stopped Su Yang, hesitated a bit, but finally, begrudgingly pulled out another Space Artifact: "Earlier... I picked wrongly, really sorry..."

Su Yang received this Space Artifact, glanced at it, and only then nodded in satisfaction. The treasures in this Space Artifact rivaled the Treasure House of the Six Trigrams Saint Venerable; it was decent.

"This at least shows some sincerity!" Su Yang put away the Space Artifact and smiled: "Alright, brothers, let’s go down for drinks. I’m buying! There’s enough good wine, let’s drink till we drop without returning!"
