Chapter 187: First Direct Confrontation with a Bishop-level (3k)
“That’s not true! Mr. Shetuo is said to be determined to get that position. He has stayed at the Initial Stage Battle King for too long, and this sacrificial blessing can enhance bloodline strength. He will definitely interfere in this matter!”
“This is going to be interesting. I heard that Mr. Sam only released five spots, and two of them have basically been locked down by the other two earls. Only three have actually been released.”
Su Jiu heard the surrounding crowd start to discuss as she watched the gray-haired middle-aged man pass by, covering the brim of his hat. Among them were some seemingly glamorous Blood Clan Viscounts.
“This Mr. Shetuo seems to be quite at odds with Old Count Sam.”
Su Jiu’s gaze lingered on him for a moment, marveling at the power of the Battle King Level. Unlike Ren’s subtle presence, this Earl’s aura was radiating outwards, making it difficult for those with slightly weaker constitutions to even breathe.
Some passersby were muttering curses about his overbearing nature, but it didn’t concern Su Jiu. She just needed to buy a spot for Yun Xi. With a calm expression, she smiled at the waiter and said, “Young man, please lead the way.”
Wiping the sweat from his forehead, the waiter turned his head and looked at the two of them with surprise. Seeing that they seemed unfazed, his eyes filled with astonishment.
“This way, please. According to your QR codes, you are in the second-tier area.”
He didn’t dare to make any other moves. After all, ordinary Intermediate Stage Battle Generals were sweating profusely, just like him, but these two were as if nothing had happened.
The waiter led the two of them to a place near the front counter. About halfway there, there were five laser-like dividing lines. They were as high as small walls, emitting a dangerous aura.
Outside the dividing line was a small platform. The waiter scanned the QR code, and the lasers disappeared one by one. He explained in a low voice, “This is specially set up to prevent guests from being disturbed by strong intrusions.”
Su Jiu nodded. She had also noticed that the interior decoration was different from the outside, appearing much more luxurious. Just as she was about to enter.
Suddenly, a noisy commotion came from the first-tier VIP area not far away, as if someone had broken in.
“This is the Earl’s territory. Even as members of the Ancient God Sect, you cannot enter so casually!”
“Bang!” With a loud bang, a waiter was sent flying into the air, falling to the ground like a tattered sack, his fate uncertain.
Hearing the sound, the two turned to look and saw several burly men in black clothes breaking in. They were aggressively charging towards Su Jiu, their silver-white inverted crosses on their necks shining brightly.
“Ancient God Sect? Are they avenging that female vendor?”
Su Jiu’s brows furrowed slightly as her gaze fell on their inverted crosses. The next moment, her eyes sharpened, and she looked towards the leading bald middle-aged white man, feeling the external qi erupting from him.
She could clearly sense that although he was not as powerful as the Earl from before, he was indeed at the Battle King Level!
Is this what a Bishop-level figure is like? No wonder they can cause so much trouble in a small city like Huayang. However, Su Jiu had a feeling that this burly man was far inferior to Si Chen, not in terms of strength, but in the oppressive feeling he exuded.
Under the gazes of everyone, the bald middle-aged man, clutching the Scar-faced Man, his flesh bulging, strode towards Su Jiu and the other person. The strange tattoos on his muscles were particularly eerie.
As he approached, he scanned the two of them with fierce eyes, like a hungry wolf looking at its food. After a moment, his brows relaxed, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face. He said in a somewhat chilling voice, “You two killed my lover, didn’t you? You have Eastern faces. Have you been staying in Dragon Country for too long?”
As he spoke, his aura surged out like a tide, instantly crushing the surrounding lounge chairs. Wood chips flew everywhere, and the sun umbrellas were sent soaring into the sky.
The waiters trembled, not daring to speak. They were just ordinary waiters, only at the Advanced Stage Warrior level.
“She trafficked children and women. So what if a scumbag like her was killed?”
Blocking Yun Xi behind her with one hand, Su Jiu smiled faintly, meeting his gaze fearlessly. A white light erupted from her body, her Ice Dragon Transformation activated – if she needed to confront a Battle King Level opponent, she had to use her Ice Dragon Transformation’s Stage Two ‘Elegy’ to fight beyond her level.
Su Jiu had no fear of the Ancient God Sect scum, especially this seemingly boosted Initial Stage Battle King. Since they had already offended them, there was no need to hide anything.
Seeing Su Jiu dare to openly challenge the Ancient God Sect’s Bishop, the passersby were quite surprised. These two girls were not simple to be able to confront a Bishop-level figure!
But as they were about to discuss, the Bald Bishop’s entire face bulged like an ape’s, his eyebrows crackling with black lightning arcs. He was like a monkey carrying black lightning – an avatar of some powerful bloodline!
He let out a low growl, his eyes coldly fixed on Su Jiu, a sinister smile appearing on his lips. “I am the Bishop of the Ancient God Sect in several cities around here. Tell me your identities – if I’m not afraid, I’ll take you both as my maids tonight.”
Those who could become Bishops, while not as formidable as Si Chen, were not necessarily foolish. Seeing how young Su Jiu and the other girl were yet so powerful, he was worried about offending some Saint Son or Saint Daughter of a Holy Temple.
“You big, burly man, you’re not afraid of us two little girls, are you? Are all the Ancient God Sect members in Eagle Country such cowards?”
“Elegy!”
Su Jiu’s face contorted into a mocking smile, her aura suddenly surging. A gilded divine-demon mask seemed to appear out of thin air, slowly covering her pretty face. A white light faintly appeared at Su Jiu’s fingertips – it was ‘Piercing Cloud’ she had learned earlier.
This was Su Jiu’s first time facing an Initial Stage Battle King Level enemy. Although he might still be inferior to a Peerless Battle General like Yun Xi, for Su Jiu, it was a jump of a whole major level.
As Su Jiu’s clear voice fell, the surrounding people could no longer hold back and Burst into laughter. Indeed, judging by his size, the Bald Bishop was at least three or four times taller than Su Jiu.
As a Battle King Level powerhouse, being afraid to make a move against an Initial Stage Battle General like Su Jiu was quite amusing.

“You sharp-tongued yellow-haired girl, when I capture you two later, I’ll let you…”
Amidst the laughter, the Bishop’s black lightning eyes narrowed, a murderous intent appearing on his face. He was vaguely gathering strength in his hand, and a black lightning ball crackled above his head. He roared and said.
“Stage Two!”
Before he could finish, as Su Jiu’s mask completely covered her face, she crouched down like a nimble rabbit. With one hand, she scooped up a white light and lunged towards the Bishop’s face, swift as the wind.
“With you? You can’t even break my energy shield… How is this possible!?”
The Bald Bishop’s expression was one of disdain, but the next moment, his energy shield was shattered. The terrifying aura emanating from the white light caused his face to change drastically. Before he could generate another energy shield to block, he clawed with his right hand, meeting it with the lightning ball. He managed a cold sneer, “My Black Lightning Fist is a Battle King Level skill! Even if you break it, you’ll just be a moth to a flame, seeking death!”
“Bang!” With the collision of black and white, a huge sound erupted, and a gust of wind rushed outwards, crushing the surrounding lounge chairs and scattering wood chips everywhere.
In just one exchange, Su Jiu’s Hanfu sleeve left red marks on the Bishop’s face, and she was not injured at all, only her green silk hair was slightly disheveled. In contrast, he not only retreated a few steps, but his right tiger’s mouth was also bleeding…
“Damn it! An Initial Stage Battle General suppressing a Battle King Level? Is this a dream!”
“It shouldn’t be that exaggerated. This little girl should also have the cultivation of an Advanced Stage Battle General, but she’s hiding it. And you all know the character of the Ancient God Sect’s Bishop, don’t you?”
“Indeed, apart from the elites, the Ancient God Sect members are quite useless.”
The faces of the surrounding crowd showed disbelief. Some even couldn’t help but curse. As they looked at Su Jiu, they were filled with admiration. With strength, regardless of age or gender, one will earn respect.
Feeling the pitying gazes of the crowd, the Bishop’s face felt a little unbearable. He wanted to continue fighting, but his subordinate tugged at his sleeve and whispered,
“Sir, we are here for that ‘Jon’ box. That important person is very interested in it.”
“As expected of someone from that ancient country. I admit defeat…”
Hearing this, the Bald Bishop’s expression changed repeatedly. Finally, he gave Su Jiu a deep look, took a deep breath, waved to his subordinate, and roared, “Let’s go!”
After he conceded, the white light on Su Jiu’s right index finger grew even more intense. This was the final move of ‘Piercing Cloud’ used directly without preamble. Although the power was not great, it was much fiercer than the previous strike.
The next moment, her icy voice came through the mask, “Does this Bishop think he’s someone important? After teasing others, shouldn’t he pay a price?”
The female vendor’s actions made her feel sick. How could her superior be any better?
Moreover, in this black market, there were no legal constraints. If you were beaten, but didn’t dare to fight back with strength, wouldn’t that make you a coward?
