Su Yu's appearance was too sudden and domineering.

John, along with Jonard and Arthur who were preparing to attack, all stopped in their tracks and stared in horror.

The wings burning with jet-black flames carried a high-dimensional oppressive feeling that transcended common sense, causing the air in the entire parking lot to drop to freezing point.

Upon seeing the cold and upright figure in the center of the pit, Qin Xinran's tense nerves completely relaxed.

The leader has finally arrived!

Without any hesitation, [Shadow Gap Shuttle] was activated.

Qin Xinran's body instantly transformed into a streak of black light that sped along the ground, ignoring physical obstacles. In the blink of an eye, she passed over the shattered cement and appeared beside Zhou Tian and Zhou Zixin, protecting them behind her.

The black flames behind Su Yu subsided slightly. His gaze swept over the three of them, and his voice was steady: "How are your injuries?"

Zhou Tian wiped the blood from his lips, forced himself to stand up straight, and his eyes regained their light: "Boss, I'm fine! Just some minor injuries!"

Zhou Zixin hid behind her brother, clutching Zhou Tian's clothes tightly with her small hands. She looked up at Su Yu with her tear-streaked face, her voice trembling slightly: "Big brother...they bullied me and my brother!"

Looking at the little girl with red eyes in front of him, Su Yu's cold killing intent subsided a bit, and his expression softened: "Don't be afraid, brother will take care of them for you."

As he comforted her, his gaze lingered on Zhou Zixin, keenly detecting the lingering mental ripples around her. His eyes narrowed slightly: "This is... an awakening?"

Zhou Tian nodded emphatically, his voice brimming with barely concealed excitement: "Zixin awakened her mental abilities ahead of schedule just to protect me!"

Qin Xinran quickly calmed her chaotic mental energy, pointed at John in front of her, and reported in a deep voice:

"Leader, the enemy was born from the Western Holy See. The blond one in the middle is the Cardinal, an S-rank, who wields pure white holy light. The dark gold scepter in his hand has the power to forcibly imprison and suppress supernatural abilities; it was this scepter that shattered Zhou Tian's holy light domain."

Her gaze swept over the purple-robed bishops flanking her on either side, and she continued, "The two on the left are both A-rank. The one on the left is skilled in close-quarters heavy punches and the Holy White Shield, and has an extremely tough body; the one on the right can transform into a blood mist to stealthily move around and use blood claws for close-range thrusts."

"understood."

Su Yu nodded slightly, his expression calm and composed.

"Step back, leave the rest to me."

Su Yu composed himself, took a step forward, and protected Qin Xinran and the other two behind him.

As he turned around, his gentle aura vanished instantly, and the air in the entire open-air parking lot seemed to be sucked out, plunging into a suffocating silence.

The night wind howled, and the more than four-meter-long [Black Flame Wings] behind him trembled, the dark flames flickering and consuming all the remaining light around him.

Su Yu remained silent, his deep gaze pressing directly onto John and his two companions opposite him.

Locked onto by those emotionless black eyes, John's muscles tensed instantly, and cold sweat beaded on his palms as he gripped the scepter.

He was horrified to discover that he couldn't see through the man in front of him.

There was no energy fluctuation, but just by standing there, he exuded a high-dimensional pressure that transcended common sense, causing him to instinctively tremble from the depths of his soul.

Not only John, but Jonard and Arthur, who were standing nearby, were also deeply shaken.

Jonard's body was tense, and the veins on his thick arms bulged.

Arthur, who was hiding on the flank, was even paler.

This is naturally the passive effect of [Divine Power].

Su Yu's mental strength far surpassed that of the three, so even when he stood still, the oppressive aura he exuded was something that ordinary people could not withstand.

"Your Excellency."

John forcibly suppressed the surging fear in his heart, gripped the scepter of power tightly with both hands, and tried to use the authority of the Papacy to stabilize his position.

"This is an internal matter of our Holy See."

"We have traveled across the ocean solely to guide the Son of Light, who carries the will of the gods, back to the Holy Land. We have absolutely no intention of offending your power."

"If there has been any offense, our Holy See is willing to compensate with holy water and secret treasures, turning hostility into friendship."

John spoke flawlessly, even making a great concession.

In his view, the Holy See was a behemoth entrenched in the West.

As a high-ranking and powerful cardinal, he has already shown the other party enough respect by taking the initiative to lower his stance and even promising to offer precious holy water and secret treasures.

However, all he got in return was a cold, deathly silence.

Su Yu's hands hung naturally at his sides, his face calm, and not even a ripple appeared in his eyes.

He didn't speak, nor did he make any extra movements. Only the [Black Flame Wings] that unfolded behind him danced violently in the night wind, the pitch-black flames twisting wildly in the surrounding void and emitting muffled and suppressed bursts.

There was no expression of murderous intent, and no verbal rebuke.

But this absolute indifference and profundity transformed into an invisible pressure, gripping the throats of the three.

One second, two seconds, three seconds.

The deathly silence made the surrounding air feel increasingly thick.

John's eyelids twitched slightly, and his heart sank completely.

He knew very well that he couldn't keep dragging this on any longer.

The invisible pressure emanating from the opponent was constantly eroding their morale; if they delayed any longer, their fighting spirit would be completely extinguished.

Since negotiations have failed, war is the only option.

However, it is unwise to risk everything without fully understanding the other party's situation.

We must first ascertain the truth about this man!

Thinking of this, John lowered his voice and gave instructions to the two people beside him:

"Make your move! Probe his strength, but don't rush in!"

Jonard and Arthur exchanged a glance, and without further hesitation, their latent extraordinary powers erupted.

"boom!"

The asphalt ground beneath Jonard's feet shattered instantly, and his massive body, accompanied by a shockwave of air, surged forward.

His right fist condensed into a dazzling holy white light, transforming into a siege hammer that slammed directly into Su Yu's face.

Arthur, who was hiding to the side, instantly transformed into a cloud of crimson blood mist, moving rapidly along the ground. A dozen pale ghost hands formed from filthy blood burst out from the mist, viciously sealing off Su Yu's lower body and escape route.

Two battle-hardened A-level bishops joined forces, one in the open and one in the shadows, their speed so fast that they left afterimages in the void.

In the blink of an eye, the chilling killing intent had closed to within three meters of Su Yu.

Qin Xinran and Zhou Tian exclaimed in unison from behind:

"Watch out, leader!"

"Be careful, boss!"

Su Yu remained expressionless.

The next moment, the immense spiritual power within his sea of ​​consciousness was released outwards without reservation.

C-Rank Ability - [Divine Sense Pressure]!

An invisible mental storm erupted outwards from Su Yu as its center. The air was compressed by the higher-dimensional mental force, creating visible distortions and ripples.

Jonard and Arthur, running wildly, seemed to have run headlong into an invisible, towering iron wall.

"Buzz!"

A thunderous roar resounded in their minds. Their forward-moving bodies were abruptly halted in mid-air. The terrifying mental shock ignored physical defenses, directly impacting their souls. Blood gushed from both of their seven orifices simultaneously, their consciousness fading into blankness and dizziness.

Su Yu raised his right hand, his thumb and middle finger intersecting.

"Smack."

A crisp snap of fingers suddenly broke the silence of the night.

【Silhouette Kill】Activated.

The void in front of Su Yu rippled like water waves.

A bizarre pair of bone scissors, forged from several white finger bones and ribs, appeared out of thin air.

The bone scissors hovered in mid-air, their blades wreathed in a chilling aura of death, instantly locking onto two shadows on the ground below.

"Snap!"

The bone blades closed, producing a series of sharp, interlocking sounds that sent chills down your spine.

Jonard and Arthur's shadows cast on the asphalt road were cleanly severed at the point where their heels met!

The bizarre and terrifying rules were fully implemented at this moment.

The severed shadow twitched eerily on the ground, transforming into the outlines of two thin pieces of paper.

Jonard and Arthur, who were in a state of mental dizziness, suddenly woke up with bulging, bloodshot eyes and harsh, rough howls coming from their throats.

Their flesh and blood began to lose moisture at a visible rate.

The vibrant red color instantly dried up, and the once elastic skin quickly turned white and brittle, peeling away layer by layer.

"Help...help me..."

Arthur stared in horror at his hands as layers of skin peeled away, revealing the dry, blackened fascia beneath.

Jonard's once-proud steel muscles collapsed like a deflated balloon. His bones, without support, folded inwards in a bizarre manner.

In just a few seconds.

The screams turned into the rustling sound of paper being rubbed together.

Their souls and bodies were forcibly sewn together by invisible laws, ultimately transforming them into two blood-stained human skin puppets.

A night breeze blew, and the cardboard puppets rolled on the ground, making hollow sounds.

The entire room fell silent.

Su Yu's attack was an incomprehensible killing move.

Zhou Tian's face turned deathly pale. He immediately reached out and covered Zhou Zixin's eyes, preventing her from witnessing this horrific scene.

Qin Xinran's breathing faltered, and her pupils suddenly contracted.

She was all too familiar with that pair of bone scissors and the brutal method of cutting off shadows and peeling away skin.

This is clearly the power possessed by the opera master who was suppressed by the leader at the old opera stage in the western suburbs!

But why is it that this bizarre ability has now been unleashed by the leader?!

Could it be... that the leader can not only destroy vengeful spirits, but also forcibly strip them of their abilities?!

The thought of this possibility filled Qin Xinran's eyes with shock and awe.

……

They watched helplessly as the two bishops met their tragic deaths.

John's back was instantly soaked with cold sweat.

He swallowed hard, his legs trembling uncontrollably.

Two A-level purple-robed bishops, the Vatican's top combat force, were reduced to pieces of paper before they could even touch the hem of the opponent's robes.

What kind of ability is this?

magic?

Divine punishment?

"Sir! It's all a misunderstanding!"

John completely broke down; his fanatical religious faith crumbled before the absolute threat of death: "I swear, the Vatican will never set foot in Yanjing again! Please let me leave!"

Su Yu didn't say a word, but simply strode towards John, stepping on the pebbles scattered on the ground.

The footsteps were slow and gentle, yet they struck John's heart like heavy hammer blows.

John understood that begging for mercy was useless.

The only option is to fight to the death!

Thinking of this, a desperate madness flashed in John's eyes.

He bit his tongue hard, and his immense mental power instantly merged into his vocal cords.

[The Word of God and His Laws]!

"The Lord says that heretics who defy God will be imprisoned!"

Ancient and obscure syllables came from John's mouth.

As soon as he spoke, the energy in the surrounding air was instantly drained, transforming into countless invisible chains that frantically bound Su Yu's limbs and bones, attempting to forcibly immobilize him.

At the same time, John clasped his hands together frantically in front of his chest.

The S-level holy light source within his body was squeezed to its limit.

The Holy Punishment Spear!

The blinding pure white light was compressed to an extreme degree in his palm.

The intense heat distorted vision, and a two-meter-long, materialized spear of light, radiating destructive heat, instantly materialized.

"Go to hell!"

John roared, swinging his arms wide and hurling the Holy Punishment Spear in his hands.

"boom!"

The air was instantly pierced by the spear, producing a deafening sonic boom.

The white spear, like a laser beam piercing the heavens and earth, carried overwhelming power as it thrust straight toward Su Yu's chest.

Su Yu stood still, his steps faltering slightly, without making any dodging movements.

John's eyes lit up with ecstasy.

The decree has taken effect!

No matter how strong the opponent is, they will be reduced to ashes if they try to withstand this Holy Punishment Spear!

"BOOM—!!"

The holy light spear, piercing through the void at lightning speed, struck Su Yu squarely in the chest.

The extremely compressed, destructive energy exploded with a deafening roar the instant it touched the surface.

A blinding white light instantly engulfed everything within a radius of more than ten meters. The violent shockwave shattered the cement on the ground into dust, and thick dust carrying gravel shot into the sky, obscuring everyone's vision.

A fierce wind howled and the water poured down.

Qin Xinran, standing behind, felt a chill run down her spine and cried out in alarm, "Leader!"

Zhou Tian took half a step forward, his eyes flashing with golden light, his gaze fixed on the depths of the billowing smoke.

A dozen meters away, John, exhausted, was panting heavily, his chest heaving violently.

He stared intently at the epicenter of the explosion, waiting for a body to be pierced through.

However, when the smoke and dust cleared...

Su Yu remained standing calmly in place, his clothes completely untouched by dust.

However, a thick, solid golden halo had appeared around him at some point.

It is indeed the Golden Light Mantra!

Invulnerable to all laws, protected by golden light.

The Holy Punishment Spear, powerful enough to pierce through anything, was perfectly blocked by the terrifying defensive power of the Golden Light Spell.

John's face froze instantly, replaced by endless terror and despair.

His divine commandments have failed!

What made John even more desperate was that... his strongest attack couldn't even break through the opponent's shield.

At that moment, John truly understood what it meant to be invincible.

The man standing in front of her was like Satan, someone she couldn't possibly contend with.

Su Yu lifted his foot and continued forward.

Black Flame Wings traced two pitch-black trails in the night.

"You forced me to do this...you forced me to do this!"

John retreated repeatedly, his eyes filled with utter madness.

He flipped his wrist, and a golden vessel engraved with angel patterns appeared in his palm.

A viscous, golden liquid flowed inside.

This is holy water made in secret by the Vatican.

John understood that, given his own strength, there was absolutely no chance of survival.

Only by drinking this holy water and forcibly stimulating their potential can they have a glimmer of hope.

Even if the price is the complete loss of one's mind!

He uncorked the bottle and drank the liquid gold in one gulp.

next second.

John tilted his head back in agony, letting out a wild, piercing roar.

"Snap! Snap!"

The sickening sound of bones shattering and reforming echoed through the silent night.

His already tall frame began to swell uncontrollably. His wide red robes were bursting at the seams from his bulging muscles.

Thick, grayish-black hair pierced the skin and grew wildly.

The facial bones protrude outwards, the mouth splits open to the base of the ears, and two rows of sharp, interlocking fangs like daggers emerge.

His icy blue eyes instantly turned into a bloodthirsty scarlet.

In the blink of an eye.

The high and mighty cardinal who once spoke of God and mercy was transformed into a werewolf over five meters tall and exuding a bloody stench under the influence of "holy water"!
