Yan Gui City, the manor where Beigong War God once lived.

    Now it''s all ruins. Su Yang and Lv Donglin returned here, only to stand atop the ruins.

    Lv Donglin, having been sent out of Yan Gui City since thest time, returned for the first time. As he looked at the ce he once lived, tears silently flowed from his eyes.

    This was the ce his uncle, Beigong War God, spent twenty years cultivating, and also where he grew up as a child. Now, everything had ceased to exist, the people and the things of the past were all gone.

    Su Yang stood beside Lv Donglin, able to empathize with his feelings. Although they held onto a sliver of hope that Beigong War God hadn''t died, seeing the ruins, their hearts were nearly filled with despair.

    Judging by the condition of the ruins, one could tell the fierce intensity of the battle. With the four major sects joining forces in an attack, did Beigong War God have any hope of survival?

    After a long silence, Su Yang gently sighed, "Lv brother, you shouldn''t be too sad. I think, with Uncle Beigong''s strength, the four major sects attempting to kill him isn''t an easy task. Maybe Uncle Beigong was injured but managed to escape. Moreover, as you mentioned earlier, there aren''t many bodies of Uncle Beigong''s close guards here, which suggests they all fled. These people are loyal to Uncle Beigong, and if he didn''t find a safe ce, how could they possibly leave? The words of the four major sects are just bluffing, trying to lure us out; you needn''t pay attention!"

    Lv Donglin nced at Su Yang, nodded slowly, wiped his tears away, and took a deep breath, "Regardless, dead or alive, we need to find out!"

    "Exactly!" Su Yang nodded vigorously, gazing at the ruins before them, he spoke in a deep tone, "Since we''re here, we must investigate thoroughly."

    The ruins cover a vast area, and Su Yang and Lv Donglin must turn over the entire ground if they wish to uncover the details buried beneath.

    As the two were busying themselves, Su Yang suddenly felt an ominous sensation. He quickly lifted his head, looking into the distance, and said in a deep voice, "Someone''sing!"

    Lv Donglin also sensed the approaching presence, feeling slightly excited, "Could it be my uncle returning?"

    Su Yang wasn''t as optimistic as Lv Donglin, maintaining a high level of vignce, he said deeply, "We don''t know who''sing, better find a ce to hide first to avoid getting caught off guard!"

    Although reluctant, Lv Donglin nodded. As Su Yang said, if the iing people were foes rather than friends, they''d be in a passive position.

    The two turned to find hiding spots, but an icy voice suddenly rang from behind them, "Gentlemen, is it a bit toote to think of hiding now?"

    Both Su Yang and Lv Donglin were startled, for someone could appear silently behind them without detection, indicating the overwhelming power of the opponent.

    They turned around simultaneously to see a man in ck standing not far behind, wicked in appearance, wielding a trident. Although not tall, likely under 1.7 meters, he exuded a chilling aura that sent shivers down one''s spine.

    Su Yang didn''t recognize the man, but Lv Donglin''s expression changed as he said in a deep tone, "Heart-Extractor Ghost King!"

    Upon hearing the name, Su Yang understood the identity immediately. Anyone with the Ghost King title must be under Jade-faced Judge and surely a figureparable to Three-Eyed Ghost King.

    Jade-faced Judge had numerous experts around, with Three-Eyed Ghost King being one amongst them. This person''s power surpasses Su Yang, although slightly inferior to ck Widow.

    This Heart-Extractor Ghost King might not be far from Three-Eyed Ghost King in strength. No wonder he could appear silently beside Su Yang and Lv Donglin; his prowess is indeed extraordinary!

    With the Heart-Extractor Ghost King here, the identities of those approaching from afar were clear.

    Before Su Yang could see clearly, a loudugh echoed from afar, "Master Su, fate keeps bringing us together, we meet again!"

    Su Yang looked closely, seeing a figure rushing from far above. This person was none other than Liu Shuangcan, who''d attacked him earlier.

    After being crippled by Su Yang in the southern six provinces, Liu Shuangcan was saved by Laughing Buddha, gaining the ck Demon''s inheritance and boosting his strength rapidly by absorbing others.

    Later, Liu Shuangcan went to Capital City, setting up traps targeting Su Yang, only to be thwarted once more by him. However, that time Su Yang was blocked by Jade-faced Judge''s people, failing to kill Liu Shuangcan, who then mixed in with Jade-faced Judge''s group.

    Seeing him today means the situation was undoubtedly arranged by Jade-faced Judge himself!

    What puzzled Su Yang was, while heading to Yan Gui City, he and Lv Donglin remained extremely low-key. Disguising themselves, sneaking quietly, supposedly nobody should have tracked them.

    Yet, shortly after arriving at Yan Gui City, Jade-faced Judge''s men showed up as if they were following them the entire way. What could this be about?

    Su Yang furrowed his brows, nced coldly at Heart-Extractor Ghost King, and asked in a deep voice, "How did Jade-faced Judge know we''de here?"

    "Haha…" Heart-Extractor Ghost Kingughed aloud, "My master is unrivaled in wisdom. Your trivial tricks cannot escape his keen eyes. Knowing you''de here is no challenge at all."

    Heart-Extractor Ghost King effectively avoided the question, leaving Su Yang perplexed; he couldn''t figure out how he and Lv Donglin had leaked their movements.

    At this moment, Liu Shuangcan had alreadynded before them. He limped over, sized up Su Yang, andughed again.

    "Indeed, thirty years river east, thirty years river west—Su Alliance Leader, what do you think your chances are this time?" Liu Shuangcan boasted arrogantly.

    Su Yang ignored him, casting a cold look at Heart-Extractor Ghost King, "What do you intend to do?"

    "My master invites you both for a talk!" Heart-Extractor Ghost King replied nonchntly.

    "What if I refuse?" Su Yang said coldly.

    "My master stated, live or dead, he wants to see you!" Heart-Extractor Ghost King chuckled.

    Su Yang''s expression changed, realizing Jade-faced Judge wouldn''t hesitate to kill him. Evidently, threatening Jade-faced Judge was impossible!
