Tribulation of Myriad Races-Chapter 1168: Gathering In Nanyuan (3)

Su Yu was alarmed to see that. Why was this furball eating any random thing he found? This sea of willpower belonged to a Sunmoon poison master. Was the furball not afraid of food poisoning?

Thus, he threw a punch.

Boom!

With a miserable wail, the sea of willpower exploded. Finally, a moon started falling from the sky.

With a casual swing of his arm, Su Yu grabbed several floating characters in the air.

Poisonous qi was leaking out of one of them. This was most likely the main character of the dead poison master.

A Sunmoon character.

The poison attempted to corrode Su Yu's body, but he wasn't even bothered. With a casual release of his death qi, the poison qi was defeated. Upon further inspection, he noted that this poison qi was actually imitating how death qi worked. Alas, before his real death qi, the poison qi was akin to a child before a burly adult. It couldn't even put up any fight against his death qi.

After easily removing all the poison qi from the character, Su Yu tossed it at the little furball. As for the other characters, he didn't pay them much attention and proceeded to toss them all to the little furball as well.

"Eat."

"Yay!"

The little furball swallowed all the characters in the blink of an eye before returning to Su Yu's sea of willpower to digest these characters.

Nowadays, Mountainsea characters could no longer catch Su Yu's eye. And a first-stage Sunmoon character wasn't much better.

Alarmed, the second individual shouted, "I have a secret—"

Boom!

Su Yu casually blasted that person apart before extracting a drop of blood essence from the remains. Only then did he say, "It's fine. I can read your memories myself."

He couldn't be bothered to waste any of his time speaking to these people. He also proceeded to extract a drop of blood essence from the poison master's remains before burning everything else. Finally, he grabbed the puppet and left. First Profound did not interfere.

In the blink of an eye, the two were gone.

At the same time, inside an underground room.

Someone sighed, "Poison Venerable is dead."

"Garbage."

"He was so confident he could tire out Hong Tan's group even if he couldn't kill them all."

"This no longer matters. Let's give up. The cult needs to stop accepting these missions. We're losing too many people. Poison Venerable was a Sunmoon as well. His body might be weak, but he has quite a lot of trump cards. Even someone like him has died instantly. This won't be an easy task to complete. We need to give up on it."

This was a place of gathering for the various sect masters in the cult. The cult had established a loose alliance between the various sects. Even so, they weren't doing very well.

The experts of the myriad races had started entering the Human Realm. And these cultists had been forced to complete dangerous tasks for these myriad race experts.

A different person said, "If this continues, we might as well submit to the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion. The myriad races are clearly using us as cannon fodder. Apart from the First Divine Sect master and Original Devil Sect master, none of us are worth anything in their eyes. This can't continue."

"The Heavenly Hunt Pavilion will also treat us as cannon fodder."

"It won't be the same. Things in the pavilion are much more complicated. At the very least, that is not a race-based organization. People like us are being rejected by both the human race and the myriad races. We might as well join the pavilion. Just look at Profound Nine. He killed someone from the Xia Family. Even with the Xia Family's retaliation, he wasn't punished by the pavilion. How about us? Do we dare to harm someone from the Xia Family? Upon retaliation, will anyone protect us?"

"We're running dogs. Our masters won't stand against the Xia Family for our sake."

"No matter what, we're not completely useless. After joining the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion, we can follow one of their elders. In a few years when we become white masks, we can finally be free of both the myriad races and humanity."

Things were desperate enough that some cultists were seriously considering Heavenly Hunt Pavilion's offer.

The Six-Winged Divine Sect master hesitated slightly and said, "Profound Nine might be rude and overbearing, but he is straightforward and honest. His status has been rising as of late. Maybe we should go under his wing..."

"He's only a white mask."

"So what? Even as a white mask, his status is probably higher than even some of the elders in the pavilion."

The sect masters had completely given up on their task to kill Hong Tan and the others. In fact, they had never been too serious about completing this task. After seeing how quickly their people had died during the attempt, they had opted to give up without any hesitation.

Others could do it if they were interested. As far as these sect masters were concerned, they would stop accepting these missions. They would also stop listening to the myriad races. At this rate, they would all die as cannon fodder of the myriad races.

They had lost way too many members as of late. It felt as though everyone was using them as cannon fodder.

Hong Tan and the others noticed the falling moon. They were surprised, but they did not investigate further since it might be dangerous.

After dealing with the poisonous fog around them, they departed hastily.

Meanwhile, Su Yu was busy reading the memory fragments in the two drops of blood essence he had collected. Beside him, First Profound looked greatly astonished. This kid seemed to be capable of anything.

Shortly after, Su Yu spoke, "That Sunmoon was Poison Venerable, the master of Heavenly Poison Sect. Also a fool and a piece of trash. He received a mission from the cult to test the danger around my grandteacher's group. As for that Mountainsea...that seemed to be someone from Nanyuan. Interesting."

Su Yu smiled, "As I guessed, Nanyuan is a more complicated place than it seems. A long time ago, someone told me that there are swindlers, traitors, running dogs, and the hired thugs of some large factions among the cultists."

The Myriad Race Cult had a complicated composition of members. There were all sorts of people in the cult. Some were merely the hired thugs of powerful factions, responsible for handling the dirty tasks on behalf of their masters.

Suddenly, Su Yu received a message from White One. He grinned when he saw the message.

"The Myriad Race Cult wishes to have a talk with me."

First Profound asked with surprise, "About?"

"Cooperation, alliance, and perhaps even surrender."

Su Yu laughed, "Interesting."

"This is like a wolf voluntarily walking into the jaws of a tiger."

First Profound didn't know what to say anymore. Those fools had actually decided to deliver themselves to Su Yu, someone who would be more than happy to see all of them dead. What a choice to make.

First Profound had never seen someone so eager to court death before. The Myriad Race Cult wasn't that weak originally. But due to Su Yu, they had lost a decent number of Sunmoons.

Su Yu alone had contributed to a mass drop in their strength through all his schemes in the past. And now, the cult was even thinking of delivering the few surviving members they had into his hands.

Su Yu said, "What are you saying, Elder? I'm not a bad guy. I'm a good guy. I will sincerely cooperate with them. After all, we can squeeze some value out of even trash, right?"

Then, Su Yu set off again. He had to keep following Hong Tan's group. After safely escorting them to Nanyuan, he could meet up with the cultists. He wondered if he could meet Lan Tian and the First Divine Sect master this time.

Those were the strongest experts in the cult, also the most mysterious individuals in the cult. Yes, Lan Tian's identity was known to all. But so what? Nobody could find him. Su Yu was also wondering about one thing. Was Lan Tian related to Wan Tiansheng?

In the past, he was told that Wan Tiansheng was unaware that Zhao Ming was Lan Tian in disguise. He used to believe that. But he was starting to suspect that recently. Was that really true? Was it even possible for that to be true?

Old Wan had full control over the academy. Could someone that strong actually be unaware that Zhao Ming was actually Lan Tian? That was way too suspicious. In that case, was it possible that there was a relationship between Lan Tian and Wan Tiansheng?

Su Yu could only rely on himself to figure out the truth. Old Wan loved to stay mysterious, so it was impossible for him to tell the truth.

With the death of Poison Venerable, the group was able to continue the journey in peace.

By dawn, the group finally arrived. After seeing them joining up with the Martial Dragon Guard's Sunmoon, Su Yu could finally leave. He had more work to do. Next on the agenda was his meeting with the cultists.

Naturally, the arrival of Hong Tan's group had caught the attention of all the experts in the city. It was rumored that the Culture Tomb was related to the multiple character faction's legacy. And the ruin in Nanyuan was also the ruin of an ancient cultural researcher.

Would anything change with the arrival of Hong Tan's group? And would that change ultimately trigger the appearance of the ruin?

More and more eyes were drawn to Nanyuan.
