Tribulation of Myriad Races-Chapter 1269: End Of Battle (2)

Unfortunately, Yun Chen, the First Divine Sect master, had failed.

Nan Wujiang, who was also First Profound, looked in the distance with a complicated gaze. When he looked at the area where multiple ancient cities were gathered, he saw multiple familiar faces, such as Su Yu, Wan Tiansheng, and even Liu Wenyan.

His relationship with Su Yu had been decent during his time as First Profound. But now...the multiple character faction seemed to have splintered. That line did not seem to recognize him and Yun Chen as one of them.

As Nan Wujiang gazed silently, Yun Chen stopped beside him with a complicated expression and said, "Teacher..."

Nan Wujiang nodded, but he said nothing.

Humanity had gained seven new Invincibles from this conflict. With the return of Zhu Tianfang, Zhou Tianyuan, and the others, humanity now had forty-nine Invincibles among their ranks even after losing Fiery Sea King. In truth, they had more.

But the rest were mostly crippled Invincibles who were remaining in hiding. They would only reappear when the survival of humanity as a whole was at stake. Great Qin King was looking in the direction of the ancient cities as well.

At the same time, with the little furball resting atop his head, Su Yu exhaled in relief before grabbing the little furball. He warned through voice transmission, "Don't run off by yourself lest you somehow get yourself killed by someone. Your family...is too ferocious."

Yes, that was quite a ferocious family. Fortunately, the two adult furballs had not been able to pay much attention to their child before they were forced to return by the other Pseudo Emperors.

At the time, Su Yu was shivering in fear, worried that they would notice the book in his sea of willpower.

Wan Tiansheng and Liu Wenyan appeared surprised as well. Both were looking at the little furball with odd expressions. This was actually a race with two Pseudo Emperors.

Two!

That was the main reason the Devil Pseudo Emperor had suffered. He would have no fear against one, but he was caught by surprise when a second Pseudo Emperor appeared.

And the two furballs were also quite different from ordinary Pseudo Emperors. If they were mere warriors, the three devil Invincibles who had rushed over to help their Pseudo Emperor could have done something effective.

But the three of them had been missing every single attack they threw at the two furballs. Thus, the Devil Pseudo Emperor was essentially forced to face the two furballs alone. All around the ancient cities, the myriad race Invincibles started retreating as well.

Due to the surprise injury of the Devil Pseudo Emperor, the conflict was near an end. The devils had fully withdrawn and the Devil Pseudo Emperor would not make another move. It wouldn't benefit the other races to continue fighting, especially since there wasn't much left for them to achieve through fighting. Further fighting would only benefit the devils.

Su Yu was relieved to see the conflict coming to an end.

While he was feeling relieved, Wan Tiansheng suddenly sent him an urgent voice transmission, "Unseal the city and let me go!"

"Principal..."

Wan Tiansheng said, "Soon, the human Invincibles will hear about the matters in the Human Realm. It won't benefit you to have me here. With me here, the myriad races and the humans alike can come and demand that you hand me over. What are you going to do, then?"

"I'm not afraid of them..."

Wan Tiansheng laughed, "Foolish. Just open the gate and let me go before anyone remembers me."

"But..."

Liu Wenyan sighed and said, "Just open the gate. Try to keep it silent. Let Martial Uncle Wan go if that is what he wants."

Helpless, Su Yu could only do as told. Wan Tiansheng gave one last look at the two of them and cupped his fists before leaving. Instantly, he vanished with a flicker. Lan Tian, who was waiting in the distance, also vanished cheerfully alongside Wan Tiansheng.

Liu Wenyan inhaled deeply and said, "Whoever asks about him, just claim ignorance. They only need to know that he's not here anymore."

Su Yu nodded.

Liu Wenyan stared at Su Yu in silence for a while before asking, "You promised he mayors two carrier treasures?"

"Yeah."

"Hand them out when more people are here. Without the Culture Tomb and carrier treasures, you will only be Su Yu..."

Su Yu nodded.

"Did you kill Zhan Wushuang?"

"Not yet. I'll do it later..."

"No!" Liu Wenyan objected, "There is no need to kill a defeated opponent. With this defeat, he won't be able to surpass you anymore. This is the way of competition between geniuses. Killing him, however, will bring you endless trouble from the divines."

It was as though they had returned to the past. Su Yu, the student, listened attentively while Liu Wenyan, the teacher, instructed with a smile, "Don't kill him. Release him. You don't even need to ask for a ransom. You won't be able to get much from a defeated genius anyway. Just let him go. The divines and other races will all suspect that the two of you have reached an agreement. The truth does not matter.

"As for what the humans might think about that, ignore them. If they want, they are free to send some other young geniuses to kill him. Those humans will all believe that they can do what you do. Let them try. When they lose a bunch of young geniuses to the furious Zhan Wushuang, the humans will understand how worthless they are without you."

Su Yu nodded. This was his teacher. It did not matter if his teacher was right or wrong. He only needed to listen attentively. As for what he would do after listening to his teacher's lesson...

Releasing Zhan Wushuang without getting anything? Dream on! After giving it some thought, Su Yu got the little furball to spit Zhan Wushuang out.

Before long, they had a ball of light before them.

Zhan Wushuang's projection emerged from the ball. He looked at Su Yu bitterly and said, "I have been defeated. Are you killing me now? So be it. Dying in your hands is better than dying in the hands of some senior experts."

He did not regret dying at the hands of the brightest genius of the era. It was only fair for the stronger genius to kill the weaker genius. That was much better than dying in the hands of some Invincible or late-stage Sunmoon. This wasn't the type of death any young genius would accept.

Su Yu said indifferently, "I disdain to kill a defeated foe. If I can defeat you once, it will be even easier for me to defeat you again in the future. Do you want to live?"

Zhan Wushuang frowned.

"Yes."

The answer was simple and straightforward. No matter how fearless a young genius was, there was no need to embrace death if living was an option.

"Good. I only need the blood essence of the cultural researchers from the myriad races. I need at least a hundred drops from each race. That will be your debt to me."

Zhan Wushuang frowned, "All races?"

"Yes. All races."

Zhan Wushuang asked, "What about their cultivation level?"

"At least Skysoar."

Zhan Wushuang sank into a short silence before agreeing, "Fine."

Su Yu nonchalantly kneaded the slightly misshapen ball of light into a perfect sphere before tossing it out of the city. As for whether Zhan Wushuang would die in this state, it wasn't his concern anymore.

Liu Wenyan laughed, "This is only a verbal agreement. Do you trust him to fulfill it?"

"I recorded the whole thing." Su Yu grinned, "All young geniuses are proud. If he goes back on his words, I'll release the recording and ruin his reputation. That will turn him into a pariah among the other young geniuses. Face is very important for us young geniuses. You won't understand, Teacher."

Liu Wenyan was rendered speechless.

Fuck!

What the fuck did this kid just say? Fine, fine. So be it. He decided to let this slide. The damn kid had been getting into the habit of saying hurtful things without realizing it.

"Is the marquis fine?" Su Yu asked.

Liu Wenyan smiled, "What do you think? He doesn't have his body anymore. Even his sea of willpower is greatly damaged."

What stupid question was that? Liu Wenyan reckoned if he took the marquis's sea of willpower out, the marquis would probably be too weak to even manifest his projection like Zhan Wushuang.

"Well, I still have quite a lot of heavenly source qi..."

Liu Wenyan waved his hand, "No. There is no need for that. Let the human race pay for it. Xia Xiao'er did that to save Xia Longwu, and Xia Longwu fell into danger because he was buying time for the other humans to affirm their dao. The human race shall pay for this. Sure, humanity might be poor, but not so poor that it can't even support the recovery of a Pseudo Invincible who has lost his body."

Liu Wenyan said, "Don't worry. The matter has yet to end. The human race will probably be fine, but the same can't be said for you..."

Su Yu frowned. Were the myriad races going to keep coming after him?

Liu Wenyan looked around, inhaled deeply, and said, "I'll be leaving. Since I still need to live among humanity, I can't say much. If you need anything, look for me at Liu City. Hong Tan, Bai Feng, and the others will be there. As for you, feel free to be more unyielding. You're an ancient city mayor. Don't worry about implicating anyone with your actions."

Then, Liu Wenyan started leaving the city.

Right before stepping through the city gate, he sent a voice transmission, "Principal Wan must have told you a lot so I don't need to tell you much anymore. Take one last advice from me. In this world, the strong are free to share their benevolence while the weak shall always prioritize themselves. When you are strong enough to sweep unhindered through the Myriad Realms, you can do whatever you want. Before that, it is pointless to interfere in certain matters."

Su Yu nodded.
