Chapter 284 The Might of a Martial Sage! (2)
“Sigh, compared to you, I’m still not good enough. I only advanced more than 10 years later.”
The First Elder sighed. “By the way, President, why are you looking for me today? Aren’t you usually too busy to see me?”
“Naturally because I have something important to discuss with you.” The person who was waiting said in a low voice, “Did you bring the circular ring I asked for?”
“Yes, why?” The First Elder was puzzled. Su Jingxing, who was listening, was excited, agitated, and pleasantly surprised!
Surname Si, president, circular ring.
With these three elements combined, the identity of the person waiting was obvious.
Si Wujiu!
The President of the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce who had two circular rings in his possession.
Some time ago, he had deliberately attacked the Li Family and put on a show.
Today, he was meeting the Li Family’s First Elder to discuss the circular ring.
Su Jingxing happened to not be able to find him, but Si Wujiu appeared on his own.
How could this not be a pleasant surprise?
What was even more surprising was that Si Wujiu and the Li Family’s First Elder had both brought the circular rings with them.
Just what are they trying to do?
Of course, no matter what they wanted to do, it would end here!
“Brother Li, I’ve figured out what the circular rings in our possession are.”
Si Wujiu, who was holding two circular rings, said in a low voice, “Our cooperation previously forced the others with the circular rings to appear. I don’t know if they were fooled, but two days ago, I finally learned what these circular rings are.”
“What exactly are they?” asked the First Elder.
“Nine Souls Ring!”
Si Wujiu replied excitedly, “Such rings are called the Nine Souls Ring! It’s a powerful soul-related treasure. As long as you gather nine rings and combine them into one, you will possess terrifying strength that you can even defeat a Martial Sages!”
“Tss…”
The Li Family’s First Elder drew a cold breath and said in shock, “Are you sure? Is what you said true? There can’t be a mistake, right?”
“No, I’ve confirmed it carefully. Its real name is the Nine Souls Ring!”
Si Wujiu said happily, “The power unleashed by the fusion of the nine rings is incomparably powerful. Brother Li, we have to find the remaining six rings!”
“The problem is, we don’t know where they are.”
The Li Family’s First Elder was helpless. “The one in my hand was even bestowed to my ancestor by Emperor Yu back then. It has been passed down until today. If we can find the nine circular rings, I believe Emperor Yu wouldn’t have bestowed this one back then. If even Emperor Yu didn’t know where the other circular rings are distributed, where are we going to find them?”
“They’re with me.”
A voice suddenly sounded.
The Li Family’s First Elder subconsciously asked, “Where?”
Si Wujiu’s expression changed. His gaze was like a fire torch as he quickly locked onto Su Jingxing, who was walking into the ruins step by step.
“Who are you?” Si Wujiu’s gaze was cold. “Brother Li, is he a member of the Li Family?”
“No.”
The First Elder shook his head. His expression was equally solemn as he said in a low voice, “Friend, was what you said true? You have circular rings in your possession?”
“Of course.” Su Jingxing approached them step by step. “Not only do I have the circular rings, I also have a good number of them. A total of five.”
“Really?” The First Elder’s eyes widened. Si Wujiu’s breathing faltered, and surprise and greed flashed across his eyes.
“What are your conditions?” He took a deep breath and glanced behind Su Jingxing to confirm if Su Jingxing was alone or whether there was someone else hiding behind him.
“Conditions?” Su Jingxing finally stopped and asked calmly, “What conditions?”
“In exchange for the circular rings!”
Si Wujiu said in a low voice, “Since you have five circular rings, I’m willing to make a deal with you. Feel free to state what you want.”
“Yes.”
When the First Elder heard this, he regained his composure and echoed, “Friend, state your price. What must we do for you to hand over the circular rings?” “I’m sorry, I never planned to sell the circular rings.” Su Jingxing, who had changed his appearance and disposition, said calmly, “As you’ve said, the Nine Souls Ring is a rare treasure. Why would I sell it?”
“On the contrary, you can sell the circular rings in your hands to me.
“In terms of numbers, I have five, I’ve got the majority. The three that you two have are too few.”
“You… you only appeared because of the Nine Souls Ring, right?”
The First Elder’s eyes flickered. In a flash, he figured out the reason.
He turned his head to look at Si Wujiu and cursed, “Si Wujiu, you were actually followed. You didn’t even know!”
Si Wujiu’s face was ashen as he stared at Su Jingxing.
“No, no, First Elder is wrong.” Su Jingxing shook his head and smiled. “I didn’t follow President Si here. I followed you here.”
The First Elder was also speechless.
The former was stunned and surprised, while the latter was shocked, angered and ashamed. After a while, he went berserk. “What did you say?!”
“I followed you here.” Su Jingxing shrugged. “If not for the First Elder leading the way, why would I appear here?”
The First Elder spewed fire and panted non-stop, his chest heaving.
non
“Enough.”
Si Wujiu gritted his teeth and growled, “How dare you eavesdrop on our conversation? You even dared to expose that you have five circular rings in front of us!”
“And then?” Su Jingxing chuckled.
For some reason, Si Wujiu’s heart skipped a beat. He subconsciously lowered his voice. “What then? Don’t talk about anything else. I’ll only give you one chance. Hand over the circular rings!”
“Wait.” The First Elder stopped him. “Who are you?”
“I’m the person looking for you both.”
Su Jingxing sighed and stopped teasing the two of them. The Essence Soul manifested and released a terrifying pressure.
Buzz!
Vast and boundless, it was like a towering mountain had descended from the sky and enveloped the First Elder and Si Wujiu.
The two of them were almost defenseless. Plop, plop! They dropped to their knees and then prostrated themselves on the ground. Their bodies were trembling and their eyes were filled with disbelief.
“Ah!”
Si Wujiu growled and tried to release his Martial Art True Intent, but he couldn’t.
Similarly, the First Elder hurriedly circulated all his soul power and circulated his Martial Art True Intent that he had just condensed.
In the end, he failed as well. Together with Si Wujiu, they laid flat on the ground like salted fish, unable to move.
“What… what kind of power is this?”
Si Wujiu struggled and shouted indignantly.
He was a third-grade martial artist, a veteran third-grade expert. Once his Martial Art True Intent manifested, he could resist and suppress those in the middle ranks.
However, in the face of this invisible and terrifying pressure, he could not resist at all.
This was because this power targeted the soul and also suppressed the soul.
His physical body, true essence, and Martial Art True Intent were rendered useless.
The problem was that even a first-grade martial artist could not do this.
How did Su Jingxing do it?
“Martial… Martial Sage?”
The First Elder’s face was pale. He thought of something and exclaimed in a trembling voice, “You’re a Martial Sage?!”
What?
Si Wujiu was stunned.
Martial Sage?
He’s a Martial Sage?
The Kingdom Defending Martial Sage of the Yu Nation?
The two of us had been targeted by the Kingdom Defending Martial Sage?
Is this luck or luck?
For a moment, Si Wujiu was dumbfounded.
The First Elder was also a little confused and dizzy.
Suppressing his shock, he trembled and asked, “You… you’re really the Kingdom Defending Martial Sage?”
“No.”
Su Jingxing shook his head and flipped the two of them from a distance. Then, he executed the Black Wind Claw and grabbed the circular rings hidden in their chests.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
The three circular rings immediately fell into Su Jingxing’s hands.
“No? How is that possible? This is impossible!”
The First Elder growled, “This strength is definitely the might of a Martial Sage! Only the might of a Martial Sage can be so terrifying!”
He was aggrieved.
He had just broken through to the third-grade and had only gotten adapted for a period of time. Before he could carry out his first actual combat, he had already encountered the Kingdom Defending Martial Sage who was rare to encounter in decades.
Su Jingxing denied it, unwilling to accept the title.
But the Li Family’s First Elder believed that Su Jingxing was a Martial Sage!
The Martial Sage took a fancy to their circular rings.
No one else could be so unlucky.
The Li Family’s First Elder smiled bitterly, sighed, and felt helpless. In the end, he chose to be calm.
He had no choice but to accept it. The might of a Martial Sage.
The legendary might of a Martial Sage was indeed terrifying. Martial Art True Intent could not withstand a single blow from a Martial Sage.
No, it could not even hold for a second!
