Su Yang nodded with satisfaction, and those few Demon Beasts bowed and withdrew.


    Su Yang stood in the courtyard, nced around, and noticed that there were already three Saint Venerables standing here.


    The expressions on the faces of these three Saint Venerables were simr to Su Yang''s, seemingly here to pay respects to the Jinghong Saint King.


    The three Saint Venerables looked at Su Yang, and one of them nodded and said, "I am Saint Venerable Changtian, may I know your name?"


    "Saint Venerable Jiushi!" Su Yang nodded in reply.


    "You''re the Saint Venerable Jiushi!?" one of the Saint Venerables eximed in surprise, "You''ve been quite the sensationtely, having killed several Saint Venerables in session, even the Unihorn Saint Venerable died at your hands. Truly impressive!"


    The third Saint Venerable sized up Su Yang, merely curled his lips, and said nothing, seeming very disdainful.


    The prior Saint Venerable Changtian also looked Su Yang over, just nodded without saying more.


    Su Yang didn''t pay them any attention; those summoned by the Saint King were all very powerful Saint Venerables, with justifiable pride. Don''t think that just because he was authoritative in his territory, these Saint Venerables weren''tmanding winds and rains in their own regions.


    Before long, other Saint Venerables arrived and settled in the courtyard. It was apparent that many among them were old acquaintances, warmly greeting one another. Only Su Yang and a few other Saint Venerables were left alone, looking particrly deste.


    Su Yang had intended to retreat to his room, but at that moment, the Saint Venerable who had spoken to him before approached him.


    "Those are the old guard Saint Venerables, they came here often, met frequently, and have good rtionships, unlike us newly promoted ones," the Saint Venerable whispered.


    Su Yang nced at him, slightly puzzled; was this Saint Venerable so naturally friendly?


    Seeing Su Yang silent, the Saint Venerable whispered, "My name is Pu Niu, and like you, this is my first time here!"


    "Is that so?" Su Yang replied softly, "But you seem to know much more than I do!"


    "Hehe…" Pu Niu chuckled, "Because my father used to be part of this group!"


    "Oh?" Su Yang''s eyes shed with curiosity; so he was a second-generation disciple?


    "However, he was killed by the Unihorn Saint Venerable!" Pu Niu''s eyes glinted, "It took me seventy thousand years to reim everything my father had!"


    Su Yang looked at Pu Niu again, and said softly, "What does this have to do with me?"


    "You killed the Unihorn Saint Venerable, thus avenging my father. I''ve been wanting to find an opportunity to thank you!" Pu Niu said earnestly.


    "No need for thanks, I did it to survive as well," Su Yang replied calmly. He wasn''t sure if Pu Niu truly wanted to thank him or was trying to deceive him. Su Yang wouldn''t casually trust someone he had just met.


    "I couldn''t have avenged him on my own strength," Pu Niu said, "I wasn''t a match for the Unihorn Saint Venerable, and besides, he had friends among these Saint Venerables. If I had attacked him, his friends wouldn''t have let me go either!"


    Su Yang''s eyes shed; was Pu Niu hinting at something?


    Noticing Su Yang''s expression, Pu Niu pointed to one of the Saint Venerables, "That one named Five Pouring Saint Venerable is a friend of the Unihorn Saint Venerable. He has long dered that he wants to kill you personally. Saint Venerable Jiushi, since you''vee to pay respects to the Saint King, your situation is very dangerous. They''re likely to provoke you before meeting the Saint King, to seize the chance to kill you. Therefore, you must remain calm, and unless necessary, don''t get into a quarrel with them!"


    "Oh?" Su Yang frowned slightly, "This is Jinghong City, under the Jinghong Saint King''s jurisdiction, would they dare kill me?"


    "In general, they cannot act this way, but there are exceptions!" Pu Niu said, "For instance, if they challenge you to a fair duel. In our Demon Beast n, dueling ismonce. Even under the Jinghong Saint King''s rule, duels would still be sanctioned by the Saint King!"


    "So, they''re likely to force me into a duel!" Su Yang said.


    "Exactly!" Pu Niu nodded, "As long as you refuse to duel, there''ll be no problem. If you don''t agree to a duel, they can''t do anything to you. Within Jinghong City, aside from dueling, any fighting can be considered privatebat, which is against the city''s rules!"


    "Understood!" Su Yang nodded with a faint smile, and suddenly walked towards that Five Pouring Saint Venerable.


    "What are you doing?" Pu Niu eximed, but he was unable to stop him.


    Since arriving, the Five Pouring Saint Venerable had been observing Su Yang. As Pu Niu said, he was a friend of the Unihorn Saint Venerable, and had always wanted to kill Su Yang to avenge him.


    He was discussing with a few friends about how to force Su Yang into a duel. Unexpectedly, Su Yang directly approached him.


    He was also perplexed, what was Su Yang nning to do?


    "Are you called Five Pouring Saint Venerable?" Su Yang asked coldly.


    Five Pouring Saint Venerable nodded, "That''s me, what of it?"


    "You were friends with the Unihorn Saint Venerable?" Su Yang asked again.


    "Indeed!" Five Pouring Saint Venerable''s eyes showed a chill, making his intentions clear. You killed my friend, and now dare to confront me, seeking death?


    "Do you wish to avenge him?" Su Yang asked for the third time.


    Five Pouring Saint Venerable was taken aback; what kind of question was this? Of course, he wanted to avenge him, but it should not be a questioning from Su Yang!


    "I asked you, do you want to avenge him?" Su Yang impatiently urged, "Do you want to or not, is there a need to hesitate?"


    Five Pouring Saint Venerable exchanged nces with the nearby Saint Venerables and frowned, "What do you intend to do?"


    "Nothing much, I just wanted to ask," Su Yang said, "If you want to avenge him, I''ll give you a chance for a fair duel, life and death are our own responsibility. If not, I''ll just go back and sleep!"


    With these words, there was an uproar, all the Saint Venerables were dumbfounded watching this unfold.


    It was known among the Saint Venerables present that Su Yang had killed the Unihorn Saint Venerable, and also known that Five Pouring Saint Venerable and several others were contemting revenge against Su Yang. Therefore, they thought it best for Su Yang to avoid confrontation.


    Who would have thought, Su Yang was so formidable, facing challenges head-on. Knowing these Saint Venerables wanted to kill him, he still initiated a challenge, was this courting death?


    Five Pouring Saint Venerable paused for a moment, frowning, "You want to challenge me?"


    "It''s not that I want to challenge you, mainly to give you a chance to avenge," Su Yang said, "As long as you want revenge for the Unihorn Saint Venerable, I will challenge you. So, do you want revenge or not, give me a definite answer!"


    Five Pouring Saint Venerable frowned deeply, baffled by where Su Yang got his confidence. With Su Yang provoking him like this, he hesitated to reply for a moment.
