Chapter 1673 - 1673: Let’s Certify as a Level Seven First
A group of people dressed in white and hiding in the snowstorm slowly emerged.
The leader’s aura dispersed the falling snow around them.
“Zhao Family, Zhao Yuqian.”
“Teng Family, Teng Zhi.”
He Yangsun raised the dual sabers in his hands, killing intent surging in his eyes. “Two level fours, you really think highly of me.”
The two people in the lead were both level four Armor and Puppet Masters.
In the Zhao family of Pagoda City, Zhao Yuqian was an Elder of the family clan and a level four Armor Master.
Teng Zhi of the Teng Family was a renowned powerhouse in Pagoda City, rare among those below level five, wielding a level four supreme-quality Battle
Puppet, dominating the region.
“Since I’m going to die today, I want to die in peace.”
He Yangsun looked at the two before him and asked, “Why must you exterminate my He Family?”
Ever since the disappearance of the head of the He Family, He Ju, many years ago, they had been ostracized.
He Yangsun seemed to have lost everything, due to his own schemes and others’ plots.
There were also experts from other family clans who had fallen in Pagoda City. Those aristocratic families did not treat the He family like this at all. “Alright, I’ll tell you.” Teng Zhi looked at He Yangsun with a calm expression.
“Your family took something they shouldn’t have.
“Back then. when He Ju was exploring the ruins of Yutao City. he found your He family’s old residence and brought back a batch of treasures.”
A trace of ruthlessness flashed across Teng Zhi’s face as he said in a low voice, “We agreed previously that all the gains from the exploration would be shared by the noble families in Pagoda City, but He Ju pocketed those treasures.
“If not for this, why would we have launched a full-scale attack on him during the second exploration of Yutao City?” A full-scale attack!
He Yangsun’s eyes turned bloodshot.
So, his father’s disappearance was related to the noble families of Pagoda City!
Han Muye in the back of the carriage shook his head slightly.
No wonder He Yangsun had readily given him a level nine battle armor back then.
Also, the armor plate sent by He Yangsun’s mother was actually the armor plate from the Primordial Chaos Battle Puppet.
These treasures were all brought back by He Ju from the ruins of Yutao City.
Unfortunately, they did not recognize these treasures, mistaking them for ordinary Battle Armor and Battle Puppets.
He Ju probably feared that his family would know the value of these Battle Armors and Battle Puppets, or perhaps he himself wasn’t sure of their worth, so he never mentioned it before his disappearance.
The noble families of Pagoda City resented He Ju t s exclusive possession of the treasures and made him disappear through exploring the secret ruins realm. They also ostracized the He family and intended to dig out those treasures.
Unfortunately, they could not recognize the treasures in front of them. It was a waste of time.
“Good, good.” He Yangsun could no longer suppress the killing intent on his body. He looked up at the sky and shouted, “I won’t let any of the noble families in Pagoda City off!’
He pointed the long saber forward and leaped into the air.
“I’ll start with you guys!
Just as the saber beam slashed down, a Battle Puppet flew out from behind him.
Cold light gathered on the four long sabers and formed a net.
After exchanging blows with Xu Ciling, a level five powerhouse from Maple Forest City, He Yangsun’s confidence and dominance increased.
Having suppressed Xu Ciling in 10 moves and then fought against a level four, he dared to fight two level fours single-handedly.
As the sabers fell, Teng Zhi and Zhao Yuqian’s expressions changed drastically.
The failed ambush last time allowed He Yangsun to safely reach Maple Forest City. It was only then that the two of them came here.
They were both level fours, which might not be much elsewhere, but in Pagoda City, they were second only to top experts.
The strongest person in Pagoda City was only level five.
Back then, He Ju, a level five Armor Master, was an overlord in Pagoda City. The He family was glorious.
The two level four experts who came and ambushed He Yangsun weren’t really interested in this task.
Was it necessary for them, two level four powerhouses, to take action against a mere He Yangsun?
It was a waste of talent.
But at this moment, as He Yangsun took action, the sharpness of his saber, the killing intent contained within it, and the power he condensed with the armor and puppet had already materialized into a net. Such means were not weaker than the two level fours at all.
It might even be stronger than them!
How is this possible?
It wasn’t a time for shock and awe. The two glanced at each other and quickly summoned their armors and puppets.
With a clang, a nine-foot-tall dark green Battle Puppet and an armor master clad in light golden armor stood under He Yangsun’s saber.
The Battle Puppet swung a cloud of mist, transforming it into an illusionary giant tree. Branches extended and danced to block the saber beam.
A dark golden longsword appeared in the Armor Master’s hand. With a flash of sword light, he charged at He Yangsun.
The long sword, fueled by the power of the armor, collided with He Yangsun’s saber in an instant.
“Clang— “Clang—
The resounding clash of longswords reverberated through the air.
The lush branches of the giant tree intercepted the saber beams, gradually wearing them down.
“His cultivation base is a little lacking. His methods of controlling Battle Puppets are too simplistic. Otherwise, he could utterly overwhelm those two,” the golden bird’s voice chimed in beside Han Muye.
“He’s simultaneously controlling both the puppet and the armor, consuming a considerable amount of origin stones. The Battle Puppet’s reservoir can only sustain him for half an hour,” a chaotic voice emanated from the Golden Bead, its excitement palpable.
In essence, if He Yangsun couldn’t secure victory within 15 minutes, defeat was inevitable.
Han Muye nodded silently, withholding any comments.
To him, a skirmish of this caliber was akin to ants fighting amongst themselves.
As for whether He Yangsun would emerge victorious, it hinged on his performance and understanding.
“Bang!
He Yangsun’s Battle Puppet was the first to land, its two sabers held horizontally.
Han Muye himself flew down in the next moment, standing side by side with the Battle Puppet.
Teng Zhi stood 30 feet away and crossed his arms. He activated the Battle Puppet’s power and continued to strengthen his defense.
The Armor Master, Zhao Yuqian, wielding the golden longsword, had eyes tinged with a dark golden hue. He was encased entirely in armor..
