silver king armor
It had only been half an hour since Su Yang and Qiuyue had started crossing the bridge yet they had covered over a million miles, taking what would take years from the experts of this world in just a few minutes.
"I can see the end of this bridge," Qiuyue suddenly said.
A few seconds after Qiuyue said those words, the flying ship suddenly stopped.
Su Yang stood up and jumped down from the ship without hesitation.
After landing, he tilted his head to look at the circular platform at the end of the bridge.
On this platform made of sparkling stones was a single jade altar. It gave off a divine aura, causing the atmosphere around it to feel majestic, as if the presence of a holy being was present.
In front of this jade altar, there was a body wrapped in a set of cracked silver armor that emitted a sharp, bloodthirsty aura that could only be felt during the war. Anyone who saw the state of this worn-out armor would be able to tell the hard fight he had suffered, perhaps even imagining it from the many holes and dents on the armor.
This figure was also in a prostrating position, clearly adoring what the altar represented.
Seeing this figure in silver armor, Su Yang's gaze flickered with a profound light.
"So I was right .. This Han Xin is indeed a soldier from the Lower Order," he said, recognizing the silver armor at a glance despite only looking at the back.
"…" Qiuyue silently looked at the prostrating figure.
"I couldn't feel life from him" he said a moment later.
Su Yang did not say anything and walked over to Han Xin to take a better look at her face.
However, no — faces are just skeletal heads that have been affected by the passage of time. There was also a huge crack on the head of this skeleton, indicating that Han Xin suffered a serious wound to his head.
"Even in your last moments, you dedicated it to the worship of the Heavenly Emperor .. How faithful .. and foolish." Su Yang silently shook his head.
"From head to toe, this entire body is filled with injuries that can easily kill even someone in the Divine Realm," Qiuyue said after examining the skeleton with his Spiritual Sense.
What the hell happened to him? What'd he meet? Did he suffer this injury after or before arriving in this world? Many questions popped up in Qiuyue's head.
Su Yang pointed to some pitch-black dots on the silver armor that seemed to have been burned by something. "The name for this armor is called the Silver King Armor, and they are made using the scales of the Silver Dragon — types of dragons that are completely resistant to all kinds of fire elements."
"In the entire Four Divine Heavens, the only people capable of burning this armor and ignoring the Silver Dragon's resistance to fire were the people of the Asura God Clan. Their most famous technique, the Asura God of Fire, was able to burn everything under the heavens, even the Gods, hence why they were so feared by even the most divine beings. "
"The Asura God Clan .. could it be that he received these injuries from the war between the Celestial Emperor and the Asura God Clan ?!" Qiuyue suddenly recalled the war.
"…"Although Su Yang remained silent, his hands were tightly clasped, and the lights in his gaze were wavering with worry.
The emotions in his eyes and the worries on his face were written so clearly that even Qiuyue could see them clearly. However, he did not know what to say that might help him in this situation, because he did not know why he was so worried.
"As for the war between the Asura God Clan and the Heavenly Emperor .. there will be many casualties like this with even more violent deaths – just like the first great war."
Su Yang then turned to look at the altar, and as he had expected, there was a jade medal sitting on the altar.
This jade medal was something only Heavenly Emperor warriors could carry. It gave the holder countless honor and prestige as someone who served directly under the Heavenly Emperor — but more than that — responsibilities.
Su Yang, without blinking, grabbed the jade medal from the altar and threw it into his storage ring.
His actions quickly left Qiuyue dumbfounded, who was worried that such a bold action would inflict lightning tribulations from an enraged heaven.
"A-What are you planning to do with that jade medal? If someone catches you, who is not of the Heavenly Order, especially someone from that Heavenly Order, you will definitely be labeled as a serious offender who dares to disguise as one of them, and in the eyes of many, you will definitely be labeled as a serious offender who dares to disguise himself as one of them, it's a worse offense than killing an innocent person … "
After listening to his worries, Su Yang only showed a slight smile. "They should be honored that I'm willing to impersonate one of them. Even though it was nothing compared to the others and a worse offense I had committed" he said with a laugh.
Qiuyue was silent. What could he do that was worse than disguising himself as someone from the Heavenly Order?
Suddenly, he remembered that Su Yang had been thrown into the Eternal Prison Cliff for good, so he must have done something to anger the Heavenly Emperor so much that he was thrown into a place where only the worst criminals in the Four Divine Heavens were sent.
In comparison, even the 'best' worst criminals in the Eternal Prison Cliff were sent there after destroying many big cities and slaughtering millions of innocent people solely for entertainment.
"you not only have the connection of the Asura God Clan, one of the most feared clans in the Four Divine Heavens, but you also .. Aiya .. you are more dangerous than I expected …" Qiuyue sighed loudly.
"Hmm? Your mother really didn't tell you about me, did she?" Su Yang laughed even harder.
"Indeed, I am not only a bastard but also a villain hated by the Celestial Emperor. If you don't feel safe around me, then you can always—"
"Don't try to push me after all this — is too late now!" Qiuyue interrupted with a serious expression.
"I will follow you even if you turn into an Evil God!"
Su Yang looked at her with a slightly surprised expression. He then turned around and started walking back towards the bridge.
"In addition to the useless silver king Armor that was too destructible even to be saved, there was nothing else here. Come back," he said to her with a calm expression.
He then continued: "If you want, as long as we can return before the entrance to the third floor disappears, you can use your wooden boat this time."
Hearing his words, Qiuyue's eyes began to sparkle with a bright light.
"Thank you?" He then quickly picked up the wooden boat and jumped on it without wasting any time.
Su Yang only smiled lightly at her actions and followed her.
