Chapter 1301: Chapter 1076: Vermilion Bird True Monarch

Gasser’s figure flickered and he arrived at the front, carrying Melissa as they quickly retreated.

Su Yuan glanced at the two but quickly returned his focus, fully controlling the Canghai Yidou to begin refining the black-clothed youth within.

"Unexpected, someone from the Great Flame..."

Gasser supported Melissa and opened considerable distance before cautiously surveying Su Yuan ahead with a complex expression.

Before the Earth Tribulation, Great Flame faced the Imperial Empire across the north and south, rivaling each other as top forces.

After the rise of Earth Tribulation, both sides fiercely competed for Dragon Vein under the King’s command.

Until now, the Grey Realm descended.

Facing the looming great threat, the Imperial Empire again had to set aside hostility to join forces with Great Flame against the Grey Realm.

Even so, the relationship between the two was not instantly harmonious, producing little cooperation beyond intelligence sharing.

Yet now, at this moment of great peril, being rescued by this King Level from Great Flame...

This person is only First Stage, yet holds a Holy Artifact, which suggests that he’s quite significant within Great Flame.

"I remember now!"

Melissa, who had been observing Su Yuan, suddenly exclaimed in surprise, her eyes filled with astonishment.

Gasser immediately asked, "Melissa, what did you remember?"

Melissa inhaled deeply and said solemnly, "He is Su Yuan!

"Su Yuan?" Upon hearing this, Gasser instantly felt the name was quite familiar, "Su Yuan... Wait? It’s him!!"

With only a moment of thought, Gasser recalled.

The first under the King’s command who destroyed the Truth Secret Society, becoming famous across the Continent—

Sky Patrol Department’s Vermilion Bird True Monarch, Su Yuan!

Looking again at the silver-haired and silver-eyed delicate youth ahead, Gasser’s expression became even more complicated.

In earlier times, this person had slain countless Imperial Burning Sun experts, undoubtedly the one the Imperial Empire most wanted gone!

Even now, many within the Imperial Empire still want to eliminate him.

And yet, the once greatest potential threat, this prodigy of another kingdom, now sets aside prejudice, rescuing the two of us at a critical moment...

Such transformation fills Gasser and Melissa with sighs and emotions.

"No wonder a mere First Stage New King faces a Third Stage Demon King with no fear and holds a Legendary Holy Artifact..." Gasser lamented.

Soon, Gasser thought of something, his eyes flickering.

At this moment, Su Yuan was fully deploying the Holy Artifact against the Third Stage Demon King, defenses limited. If suddenly striking, perhaps...

But this thought was extinguished as soon as it arose.

The knight’s way forbids me from such vile acts as repaying kindness with ingratitude and launching sneak attacks!

Moreover... the former first under the King’s command surely isn’t as easily dealt with as he appears?

Reaching King Level requires Dragon Vein and thus the numbers are sparse, but Burning Sun requires only sufficient Talent.

If speaking relatively, the "internal competition" among Burning Sun is far fiercer than the King Level, emerging as the strongest Burning Sun won’t be someone easy to deal with!

"Uh!"

Just as Gasser contemplated in shock, Melissa beside him groaned and fell toward the ground.

Gasser quickly caught her, "Melissa, how are you!"

"Not too good..." Melissa said with some difficulty.

Gray-white tattoos spread deeper and larger on her body like a tattoo.

Melissa felt increasingly weak, as if feverish, her body growing light as though her soul might escape its shell.

Gasser felt a chill in his heart, immediately biting his fingertip, allowing Essence Blood to flow and ignite.

Gasser’s fingers swiftly moved, tapping various spots on Melissa’s body, connecting blazing blood into a Burning Blood five-star seal.

Gasser’s aura weakened, but the Erosion Power spreading on Melissa’s body significantly eased.

"You won’t last long... should you leave first?" Gasser asked with a frown.

In reality, with Su Yuan blocking the Demon King, the best choice was to leave immediately.

But for the opponent to face such a strong enemy while we leave without a word... it truly tarnishes the knight’s virtue.

Unlike the Heresy Court, Gasser and Melissa are quite traditional Holy Temple Knights.

Melissa shook her head slightly, "Let’s watch from a distance."

At this moment, within the Canghai Yidou.

Faced with endless Canghai Water, the black-clothed youth was swiftly beaten into desperation.

His performance was unlike Jing Yan of the Red Teeth Guard back then, when Fierce Flame erupted, nearly escaping from Canghai Yidou.

However, Su Yuan remained cautious. Though different from Jing Yan’s previous red attire, the black-clothed youth also wore similar clothing...

If his guess was correct, this opponent was likely one of the Five Great Armies... of the Dark Erosion Guard.

According to Gu Xunyou’s intelligence, the Dark Erosion Guard’s physical prowess wasn’t as prominent as the Red Teeth Guard, but they excelled in applying various negative statuses.

At this moment, Su Yuan suddenly sensed something, narrowing his eyes: "Indeed, not so simple..."

The originally surging Canghai Water now appeared slower and clumsy.

The water held vast amounts of grey energy, permeating and spreading with the black-clothed youth at the center.

These grey energies made the Canghai Water lose its inherent Strength, greatly reducing its power.

"Not only able to weaken life forms, even Canghai Water, this dead matter, can be eroded, this ability is quite formidable..." Su Yuan mused.

"This thing, it must be a Holy Artifact?" The black-clothed youth quickly steadied himself, looking towards the sky. "Holy Artifact is indeed powerful, but alas, water is the best medium for my power to spread."

The black-clothed youth sneered, accompanied by a terrifying wave of grey energy spreading wildly into the surrounding Canghai Water from his body!

Su Yuan fully activated the Canghai Yidou, yet couldn’t stop the spread of grey energy.

Nevertheless, Su Yuan didn’t stop.

Though the black-clothed youth’s powers appeared to counter the Canghai Yidou, polluting the entire Canghai to escape wouldn’t be easy either!

Even if the Canghai Yidou couldn’t directly kill the opponent, exhausting him strategically is valuable.

With Qingming Realm’s supplement of three Dragon-level Star Veins, there’s no fear of consuming with even two or three Level Threes!

"Qingming!"

Su Yuan’s thoughts moved, the Qingming Imprint on his chest lighting up, innumerable Star Power continuously replenished, tirelessly activating the Canghai Yidou!

As the grey energy spread to wider waters, the black-clothed youth’s erosion indeed slowed down.

"A First Stage King Level, even if this Holy Artifact can’t harm me, yet insists on exhausting me?"

The black-clothed youth frowned, sensing Su Yuan’s odd actions.

The opponent’s actions suggested some confidence.

But now, faced with this immensely powerful Holy Artifact, he truly had no better recourse.

"No matter what, even if draining half my Star Power, once escaping this treasure, killing this person would be effortless!"

Cold intent floated in the black-clothed youth’s eyes, snorting as he deployed all his Star Power, pushing the grey energy to spread continuously...
