With the two men having said this much, there was no turning back.
Only one of them can leave alive.
"Let me guess, you must have a lot of people lying in ambush on those mountains over there, right?"
“Tell them it’s unnecessary. I can’t beat you. If you insist on fighting, I’ll call Xiao Ai to save me.”
Su Cheng put on an indifferent expression, with a hint of confidence, but his eyes were carefully scrutinizing Shen Rui in front of him.
Shen Rui was speechless; she had made him laugh.
"Are you serious? You think I'm afraid of her?"
How will you know if you don't try?
"I thought you would call that brain-dead, love-struck idiot Kumu to save you."
"The mother fox would love for me to die. It's already a miracle that she hasn't brought him along to get me."
A gentle breeze rustled through the mountain corridors, creating a lovely, continuous whistling sound.
The sapling swayed slightly because of the shockwaves generated by the supernatural power.
There aren't many people around here; if there are, they're enemies.
This time, no one bothered Su Cheng, and similarly, no one came to save her.
The so-called "Xiao Ai" was just a test; Su Cheng simply wanted to know how much Shen Rui knew about the anchor point.
Clearly, judging from Shen Rui's behavior, he seemed unaware of the situation.
In other words, the location anchor point is most likely still in this world, and Su Cheng thinks it is most likely in the Northern Region.
However, the prerequisite is that you can get out alive.
The sword formation unfolded in an instant, leaving him no room to maneuver. If he didn't swing his sword the moment he stood up, he would surely be the one to die.
"Tongzi, can I borrow some more?"
[Ding~ No, you need to repay the outstanding system points and then apply again.]
It's obvious...
Now all we can do is...
Go for it! Don't overthink it!
"Shen Rui, what's our relationship?"
"Are you going to fight or not? Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
Are you in a hurry to fight?
"To be honest, it's a bit urgent, but I'm really curious, who would be willing to come and rescue you?"
"I didn't intend to drag things out; I just wanted to see if I could gently awaken your sleeping soul?"
I'll smash your head in!
Yes, as a traitor, who can save him?
As a target of public criticism, almost like a rat crossing the street, those who wanted to kill him were all his former subordinates, all of whom were extremely powerful. Who among ordinary people could save him?
Su Cheng tightened his grip on the greatsword, held it horizontally in front of him, and chanted a spell to summon a scroll-shaped magical artifact.
And behold, the enormous scroll unfolds slowly like a curtain; it is not Dongfang Jue's "Map of the Land and its People," but rather the "Magnificent Rivers and Mountains Map," which is also a celestial-grade magical artifact.
The scene instantly transformed into a game-like landscape. As system restrictions were lifted one by one, permissions were granted, and Su Cheng was now able to use many magical artifacts.
The earth transformed into a boundless wilderness, and one could even smell the fragrance of the grass beneath one's feet.
"Xiao Ai said that what mortals lack when killing gods is not power."
"You still believe such things?"
A long, ice-blue spear was slowly grasped in Shen Rui's hand. Compared to Su Cheng, he looked very ordinary, like a regular person.
There was no fierce wind, no thunder or lightning; he didn't have that many supernatural powers, and frankly, they were superfluous.
This means nothing before the authority of the gods.
This spear is the embodiment of authority.
"Xiao Ai said that an enemy face-to-face is much easier to deal with than an enemy on a chessboard."
Is that considered a compliment?
"You're quite upright, aren't you?"
"You know perfectly well that they are my people."
That's what Shen Rui said, but it sounded more like a question.
However, he was right. Just by looking at the style of the armor, Su Cheng could tell which army those dozen or so armored warriors belonged to and guess whose people they were.
"At least you're standing in front of me now, aren't you?"
"Because they don't seem to be your match."
Su Cheng smiled. It's hard to persuade a damned devil with kind words. He had already given this general enough face.
As the commander of the 13th Army Corps, he deserves such treatment. In any case, Suzhou should give this former hero the respect he deserves.
"But unfortunately, you're not one either."
For the vast majority of the children who came here, this was the first time they had ever seen this so-called king, this so-called venerable one.
However, they didn't care; it was none of their business.
Just like the Qingyue Garrison only obeys Gu Ai's orders, their king is only Shen Rui.
Remove the armor-piercing arrowhead from the arrow, replace it with a marked arrowhead, and tighten it. Su Cheng is only lightly armored, and his armor level is not high. Ordinary explosive arrows are enough to suppress him.
However, Su Cheng had no intention of fighting the entire group alone. The moment he appeared, he instantly unleashed his supernatural powers. Using the Frost Sword Formation, he countered the spatial suppression, while the Magnificent Rivers and Mountains Map also pulled Shen Rui and Su Cheng into an illusion.
This magnificent landscape painting is not like Dongfang Jue's landscape painting, which can create a one-on-one combat environment; it is merely an illusion.
While having the "Map of Mountains and Rivers" might slightly increase Suzhou's chances of winning, it wouldn't be by much, as it's practically impossible.
The difference between the two is not like that between a child and an adult, nor is it a child fighting a boxing master; this is a battle between a mortal and a god.
The win rate is not zero, but it is infinitely close to zero.
Su Cheng dared to stand here only because the sword in his hand could still injure his opponent, so there was still hope.
So how much can my cultivation level increase?
There was no other way; Su Cheng didn't have any system points, so he could only pin his hopes on Mount Ling, hoping that the newly recruited disciples would be of acceptable quality.
