Celestial Realm Alchemy Sovereign

Chapter 43 – Who is the prey



Terra Su shrugged his shoulders. "Congratulations, you guessed right. But there's no reward, because all of you are going to die."

For those who wanted to kill him, Terra Su never had any reason to spare them. No matter who they were or what background they had, they had to die!

"Kid, have you lost your mind?"

"Saying such things in front of our young master, do you have a death wish? Do you know what cultivation level our young master has?"

The young man referred to as the young master suddenly gave a nonchalant smile, raised his hand to interrupt everyone.

Then, the young master walked up to Terra Su, sized him up for a moment, and said disdainfully, "Did you just say you want all of us to die?"

"Young master, this kid is courting death. Let us teach him a lesson on your behalf."

The young master waved his hand, staring at Terra Su with interest, and chuckled maliciously. "Kid, I really admire your courage. Someone like you, it's a pity to kill you."

"How about this, you and I have a one-on-one duel. If you can defeat me, I'll let you go. How about that?"

At first glance, it might seem like the young master of the Iron Armor Gate was being merciful and wanted to give Terra Su a chance.

But on closer thought, one would realize that the disciples of the Iron Armor Gate were all fierce and ruthless. How could their young master be any different? The young master's real intention was to toy with his prey.

This kind of game was like treating people as prey, first giving them hope of survival, then slowly shattering that hope bit by bit, and finally watching them struggle in despair. The pleasure derived from this was far beyond simply killing someone.

A mocking smile appeared on Terra Su's lips as he stared at the young master of the Iron Armor Gate and slowly said, "Alright."

"Haha, I knew you wouldn't refuse." The young master of the Iron Armor Gate waved his hand and ordered, "Clear a space for us!"

Soon, the disciples of the Iron Armor Gate stepped aside, leaving a large open area for Terra Su and the young master.

Terra Su could clearly feel a gaze firmly fixed on him from behind. Without turning around, he knew it came from the middle-aged black-clad warrior who was the young master's guard.

However, Terra Su didn't react to it. He just looked calmly at the young master of the Iron Armor Gate. "Can we start?"

"Let's begin!" The young master took out a whip and said, "Oh right, I forgot to tell you. My name is Andy Ma. Remember it well, so that even if you die, you'll know the name of the person who killed you. Don't die in ignorance!"

With that, Andy Ma activated his True Qi, instantly unleashing his cultivation level—Inducing Qi Realm, tenth level!

"Kid, if you want to live, you'd better give it your all to defeat me!" Andy Ma's lips curled into a sinister smile. The prey had taken the bait. By agreeing to the duel, the prey had shown hope for survival.

What Andy Ma needed to do now was to repeatedly shatter that hope until the prey was utterly desperate. That feeling would be immensely satisfying!

"Silver Snake Whip Technique!" Andy Ma flicked his wrist, and the whip shot towards Terra Su like a venomous snake, moving at lightning speed.

If things went as expected, the whip would strike Terra Su hard and then coil around him, rendering him immobile.

This was Andy Ma's favorite way to torture people—binding them tightly without causing fatal injuries. The victim would struggle violently to survive, and Andy Ma could enjoy watching their desperate struggle.

But this time, things seemed different.

After the whip lashed out, instead of the expected smooth strike, it felt as if it had hit something solid and was then bounced back.

Andy Ma looked across and saw Terra Su standing there with a long sword in hand. It was clear that the whip had been deflected by the sword.

"Damn it! He actually blocked my whip technique."

Andy Ma felt a burning pain in his wrist, a result of the force of the whip being reflected back and injuring him.

However, what shocked Andy Ma even more was the realization that Terra Su had managed to block his whip technique. This meant Terra Su was also at the tenth level of the Inducing Qi Realm.

A fifteen-year-old at the tenth level of the Inducing Qi Realm?

This was simply unbelievable. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed it!

Amidst his shock, he suddenly heard Terra Su's voice from across the field. "Now it's my turn to ask you. If you can defeat me, I'll let you live. How about that?"

What?

Before Andy Ma could react, he saw Terra Su raise his long sword high. A surge of sword light, carrying immense power, slashed straight towards him!

"Not good!"

Andy Ma was terrified. His strong intuition as a tenth-level Inducing Qi Realm practitioner told him that Terra Su's sword strike was far more powerful than a typical tenth-level practitioner's strike!

"Dodge!" was Andy Ma's first thought. But at such close range, where could he possibly dodge to?

The blinding sword light grew closer, rapidly enlarging in his vision, forming the last image in Andy Ma's mind before his death.

"Young master!"

A figure suddenly lunged forward—it was the black-clad guard!

But it was too late!

Bang!

Andy Ma's body fell straight to the ground with a loud thud. Blood gushed from a wound on his neck.

His eyes were still filled with disbelief, as if he couldn't comprehend that he had been killed by someone he considered his prey.

"Kid, how dare you kill our young master of the Iron Armor Gate!"

The black-clad guard was stunned for a moment before reacting. Terra Su had actually dared to kill the young master of the Iron Armor Gate, completely unafraid of inciting a blood feud with them!

And he did it right in front of the guard!

"Damn it!" The black-clad guard was furious. Terra Su's actions were a blatant challenge to his authority.

But at that moment, Terra Su's voice sounded calmly in his ear. "Do you think you can escape?"

"What?"

The black-clad guard was also enraged. From Terra Su's words, it seemed he intended to kill him too?

"Kid, I admit you have some skills, but you're far from being able to kill me!" The black-clad guard, in his fury, unleashed his full cultivation level!

His cultivation level was at the peak of the Inducing Qi Realm, just one step away from breaking through to the Condensing Origin Realm!

The black-clad guard let out a long howl, and True Qi surged from his palms. His mortal hands gradually took on an iron-like sheen, as if they were cast from metal, displaying immense power.

"Kid, today you killed our young master. I'll make you pay with your blood."

The black-clad guard's voice still echoed in the air as he closed in on Terra Su, just a meter away.

"Returning to Origin Iron Palm!"

With a double palm strike, the air in front of him rippled, producing a piercing sonic boom.
