After a brief exchange with Shura in Capricorn Palace, Su Xiaoqi left with Himejima Akeno and headed towards Aquarius Palace.
He was still a little disappointed with the power of Shura's Holy Sword. It looked incredibly sharp, but there was still a long way to go before it was honed to its peak.
In addition to the Holy Sword's disadvantage of being a linear attack, which made it relatively easy to dodge, it was no wonder that this move rarely killed opponents in the original story.
Before Su Xiaoqi left, Shura also told him the reason why he pledged allegiance to Saga. He was a man who firmly believed that power was justice, and he believed that as long as there was enough power, it could be justified.
And now, Saga not only had great strength, but also had no intention of killing Athena, so what was there for him to hesitate about?
Inside Aquarius Palace.
Camus looked at Su Xiaoqi and Himejima Akeno, who had arrived, and said, "I know that several Gold Saints have already joined you, but I have my own position. You should leave."
Su Xiaoqi stared at the cold-looking man in front of him for a long time.
In the Twelve Palaces arc, he could sacrifice his life for the inheritance between master and disciple.
In the Hades arc, he didn't hesitate to bear the name of a traitor and return to the Sanctuary with Saga and Shura to 'kill' Athena.
In the Soul of Gold arc, he could make up for the mistakes of his childhood to his good friend Milo and throw a punch.
Throughout Camus's life, he had always lived for others.
Su Xiaoqi guessed that Camus probably still had the same thoughts as in the original story. He didn't think his charm was great enough to make the other party give up this idea.
"Since you've already made a decision, then we'll go to the next palace."
Su Xiaoqi took two steps forward and suddenly stopped, turning his back to Camus and said, "If you can survive after completing your master-disciple inheritance, I hope you can live for yourself once with the identity of Camus."
"Because your good friend Milo still wants to fight alongside you."
After Su Xiaoqi and Himejima Akeno left, Camus walked out of Aquarius Palace, gazing at Scorpio Palace below, and then looked at Sagittarius Palace.
Inside Pisces Palace.
Su Xiaoqi and Himejima Akeno were now sizing up the 'most beautiful person in the Sanctuary' in front of them. Putting everything else aside, just the beauty mark under his left eye and the act of holding a rose in his mouth were very flamboyant.
"Aphro, have you ever considered debuting and filming? I think with your appearance and figure, you'll definitely be a hit. I can be your manager."
Aphrodite's eyes twitched slightly when he heard the nickname 'Aphro'. He took the red rose out of his mouth and said, "I'm not interested in filming or anything. My beauty disdains being seen by mortals."
Then, he conjured a red rose from who knows where and handed it to Himejima Akeno, smiling and saying, "This beautiful lady, the red rose pales in comparison to the radiance of your beauty."
Himejima Akeno took the red rose and smiled, "Thank you. If I have the opportunity, I would like to ask you about how to protect your skin."
Aphrodite smiled and said, "You've come to the right person in this regard."
Su Xiaoqi, who was listening from the side, twitched his lips and looked at Aphrodite, saying, "Aphro, I'll guard Pisces Palace for you next. You and Junai can go chat about beauty on the side."
"The Pope has already instructed me to let you play around as you please next," Aphrodite responded, then looked at Himejima Akeno and said, "Then let's go chat about beauty topics on the side. I'm also very curious about what kind of skincare products people from other worlds usually use."
"Aphro, wait a moment."
Su Xiaoqi stopped Aphrodite, rubbed his hands, and smiled, "I have to wear a Saint Cloth to guard Pisces Palace, right? So, can you lend me your Pisces Gold Cloth to wear first?"
Aiolia sighed and said, "It's not that I'm unwilling to lend you my clothes, but my Pisces Gold Cloth doesn't like being worn by anyone other than me, because only the most beautiful person can earn its recognition."
Su Xiaoqi was speechless and said, "Little Aiolia, do you think I look like someone who would be fooled by such nonsense? If you're not willing, at least give me a decent reason."
"If you don't believe me, you can try."
A few minutes later, when Su Xiaoqi put on the last component of the Pisces Gold Cloth, the Pisces Gold Cloth instantly detached from his body and returned to its Pisces form.
Seeing this scene, Su Xiaoqi was completely defeated. He was rejected by the Gold Cloth once again.
[Saga: @Su Xiaoqi, the opportunity was given to you, but you couldn't grasp it. Don't you still have five Bronze Cloths? Those things have lower requirements, you should be able to wear them.]
[Su Xiaoqi: Get lost, I don't want to talk to you right now.]
[Saga: I'm just reminding you that the Four Little Strong Ones have already passed through Shura's side. You have less than 6 hours left, take your time.]
[Saga: But I estimate that Ikki will be here soon. When that time comes, I will let all the Gold Saints let him pass. Tell your brother when you can't hold on anymore.]
[Su Xiaoqi: Get lost.]
Su Xiaoqi waited in the Pisces Palace for almost half an hour, and the Three Little Strong Ones, except for Hyoga, finally arrived.
"Shiryu, Shun, we have finally reached the last palace, the Pisces Palace. As long as we pass through here, we can see Lady Saori."
Shiryu said, "Seiya, don't you find it strange? All the Gold Saints we've encountered since the Gemini Palace seem to be actively letting us pass."
Shun nodded, "Yes, other than Hyoga's teacher Camus leaving him behind separately, the three of us have had it too easy this whole way."
Seiya laughed, "Maybe it's because I'm wearing the Sagittarius Gold Cloth now."
"No matter what, let's get through here and return to Lady Saori's side first."
Just as they continued to walk a distance into the depths of the Pisces Palace, Su Xiaoqi stood in front of them.
"The three of you, this road is closed. If you want to see Athena, you can only defeat me."
Seiya looked at Su Xiaoqi warily and said, "Are you the Gold Saint responsible for guarding the Pisces Palace?"
Shun on the side said, "Seiya, he's the man we saw at the entrance of the Zodiac Twelve Palaces, and he's not wearing a Gold Cloth either."
"What, so he's not a Gold Saint."
Hearing this, Seiya breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Su Xiaoqi with a smile, "Since you're not a Gold Saint, then please step aside, you're not our match."
Shiryu wasn't as arrogant as Seiya, and looked at Su Xiaoqi, saying, "If you want to fight us, please put on your Cloth first."
Su Xiaoqi smiled and said, "To deal with the three of you, I don't even bother to wear something like a Cloth."
"Considering your performance just now, I will show a little mercy to you two, Shiryu and Shun, later."
"As for you, Seiya, since you're standing in the center and wearing the Sagittarius Gold Cloth, you're going to get the worst beating later."
"If you can do it, then come and try."
As Seiya's words fell, he ignited his Cosmo, quickly waving his hands to simulate the trajectory of the Pegasus constellation. After all his pre-motion actions were completed, he shouted:
"Pegasus Meteor Fist."
Faced with this level of Meteor Fist, Su Xiaoqi raised his hand and slapped away all the meteors that were attacking him one by one.
"Nani!"
"My Meteor Fist was actually blocked by him so easily."
At this time, Seiya was shocked, and Shiryu and Shun beside him were equally shocked.
"Seiya, you're embarrassed to call that attack a Meteor Fist? If it weren't for the fact that you're wearing a Gold Cloth, I wouldn't even bother to lift a hand."
"This time, let me try."
As Shiryu's words fell, he also ignited his Cosmo and unleashed his strongest secret technique.
"Rozan Rising Dragon Force."
"It looks quite intimidating, but its power is pitifully weak."
"How is this possible."
Shiryu exclaimed as he watched the other party catch his ultimate move with just one finger.
Su Xiaoqi smiled and said, "Shiryu, nothing is impossible. What seems impossible to you only means that you are too weak."
"Nebula Chain."
At this moment, Shun swung the chains in his hands.
"Shun, you don't think you can catch me with these chains, do you?"
Su Xiaoqi grabbed Shun's chains with one hand and looked at the three of them, saying:
"Now the three of you should know, right? To deal with you, I don't need to wear a Cloth at all."
"Since you have all used your moves, now it's my turn."
