Supreme Warrior in the City

The Buddha Venerable was still sitting cross-legged on the Ancient Battlefield, maintaining an expression of compassion.

The Golden Winged Roc stood on the shoulder of the Buddha Venerable, and upon seeing the First God emerge, it immediately let out an eagle’s cry, vigilantly watching the Buddha Venerable.

"Shut up, you feathery animal!" the First God cursed angrily, staring at the Buddha Venerable, and said in a deep voice, "Buddha Venerable, you are really despicable. Last time I thought that the one named Su who entered the Immortal Palace was merely a furnace, a furnace for your Buddha and Demon in One. I never expected that you were the furnace, making wedding clothes for others. Your real goal was not yourselves, but to cultivate that one named Su!"

The Buddha Venerable smiled faintly: "There is no such thing as making wedding clothes for whom in this matter. At the beginning of Ancient Times, if it weren’t for Su Yang, the Heaven Slayer and I might not have survived. Thus, it was Su Yang who saved us with his Undying Golden Body and Undying Bone!"

"Hmph, you still want to fool me?" the First God said coldly: "The Secret Technique you both created can completely integrate together; it’s clearly deliberate. For so many years, you’ve been using the Undying Golden Body and Undying Bone, but you’ve also been tempering the Undying Golden Body and Undying Bone. You’re clearly helping him in cultivation!"

"This is called repayment." The Buddha Venerable shook his head: "He sacrificed himself to save me and the Heaven Slayer, so naturally we must repay him. First God, you Guardian Gods have never understood what it means to know gratitude and repay it, so you can’t understand this, which is normal. But the Human Clan is different from you; when we receive kindness, we must repay it in abundance; that is the difference between us!"

"Pah!" the First God spat angrily: "What abundance of repayment, hmph, do you really take me for a fool? Buddha Venerable, your actions are too despicable, using such tactics to deal with us?"

"Why not?" A cold voice came from the distant sky, and a burst of Qing Guang swiftly arrived, landing beside the Buddha Venerable.

"Taoist Venerable!" A flash of cold light crossed the face of the First God: "What, do you think to rely on numbers to bully me alone?"

"It’s not that bad!" The Taoist Venerable sneered: "Who doesn’t know that those old guys of you Guardian Gods have also come out, I’m just here to tell you, since everyone has returned, let’s ditch the nonsense. You say we’re despicable in our actions, but aren’t you utterly shameless too? Relying on the protection of the Heavenly Dao to elevate your power, you immediately attacked us. Hmph, if you really had ability, you should wait until our Human Clan grows strong, then fight with us. Instead, with power several times ours, we dragged it into a draw. Now you come and say we’re insidious in our actions, weren’t you being despicable when you bullied the few with many and used strength against the weak?"

"The rules of the heavens are strict, we act according to the rules of the Heavenly Dao, what’s this talk about despicable or not?" the First God shouted fiercely.

"Are you planning to blame everything on the Heavenly Dao?" The Taoist Venerable laughed coldly: "First God, don’t forget, there’s still a Heavenly Venerable not dead yet. If that Heavenly Venerable heard what you said, how do you think he would treat you?"

The First God’s face changed drastically, he said angrily: "You despicable Humans, only capable of stirring up discord. It was like this during Ancient Times, like this in Ancient Times, and still like this now, don’t you feel ashamed?"

"That’s what you said, how did I stir up discord?" The Taoist Venerable laughed: "You just mentioned the strictness of the rules of the heavens, isn’t that to say that what you did is required by the Heavenly Dao?"

The First God raged: "What I meant was that you violated the heavenly rules, so you should be eliminated, you have no right to talk fairness with us!"

"Oh, so since we have no right to talk fairness with you, then it’s not a big deal if we act a bit despicably, right?" The Taoist Venerable shrugged: "You can’t say we’re despicable while simultaneously unwilling to fight us fairly, isn’t that too much of a double standard?"

"You..." The First God was infuriated beyond words by the Taoist Venerable.

"First God, why waste words with him?" At this moment, a cold voice came from behind. Immediately afterward, a Guardian God with dual wings and enveloped in dark light flew to the scene.

"Dark God, what are you planning to do?" The Taoist Venerable glanced sideways: "Traveling all the way here, are you ready to fight us again?"

"If you want to fight, I’m ready to accompany you!" the Dark God replied coldly.

"Alright then, it’s been so many years since our last fight, I really want to see if your power has advanced or regressed!" The Taoist Venerable was eager to give it a try.

"Going to fight? It’s so boring for just two people to fight, why don’t we get a few more involved?" Two more Strongest flew in from the side of the Guardian God, glaring ominously at the Buddha Venerable and the Taoist Venerable.

The Buddha Venerable’s expression remained indifferent while the Taoist Venerable looked eager to try. Judging by the stance, it really seemed they were prepared to have a fierce battle with the Guardian Gods.

Seeing more people by his side, the First God was confident, and sneered: "Taoist Venerable, why are you not speaking? Fight or not?"

"After so many years, your tactic of bullying the few with many hasn’t changed at all!" The Taoist Venerable sneered: "Since you can throw your face away, why shouldn’t I? Come on, I’ll take you four on by myself today, it’s no big deal!"

"I think you’re courting death!" the Dark God shouted coldly.

"Stop talking nonsense, when the fight starts, we’ll see who lives and who dies!" The Taoist Venerable retorted coldly: "In Ancient Times, I once fought against four of the Strongest alone. You Guardian Gods, born with unique advantages, sheltered by the Heavenly Dao, you reached the realm of the Strongest much earlier than us, but ended up like cowards. Among the thirteen Strongest of Ancient, ten were Guardian Gods. And what happened? We beat you like dogs, and now you have the face to argue with me?"

"Taoist Venerable, you deserve death!" the Dark God roared, disregarding everything, and instantly lunged towards the Taoist Venerable with his wings flapping.

"Oh, planning to sneak attack?" The Taoist Venerable mocked disdainfully, with a wave of his hand, a Qing Guang trapped the Dark God within it.

The Dark God fiercely flapped his wings, accompanied by wind and thunder, constantly assaulting the Qing Guang. However, the Qing Guang remained towering and unchanging, the powerful wind and thunder unable to shake it a bit. As soon as they hit the Qing Guang, they simply disappeared, as if they had never existed.

Meanwhile, the Dark God couldn’t break free from the Qing Guang for a while, angering him to shout out loud.

Seeing this situation, the First God gave a signal to a Strongest behind him.

Understanding the cue, the Strongest immediately rushed forward too, attacking the Taoist Venerable to help ease the pressure on the Dark God from the side.
