Tribulation of Myriad Races

Heavendoom City.

Main city gate.

Su Yu's feelings were quite complicated to return here.

This was the place that had pushed his achievements to a new high, with Sunmoons and death spirits dying due to him. Here, he contended against the myriad races. It had been around two months since then.

Time sure moved quickly. It had actually been so long.

Su Yu felt both smug and melancholic as he thought of his glorious achievements. He couldn't help but admit that Heavendoom City played a big part in allowing him to do all he did in Grandstar City. The breathing technique he had learned here had helped a lot during the scam.

Without the breathing technique, it would have been much harder to convince those people. Here, he had also learned the reversal art of the death spirits. That was the key to his survival until now.

Here, he did not manage to gather as many treasures as he did in Grandstar City, but this was the place he started his rapid rise. Here, he learned that Sunmoons could die as well. Thus, it was inevitable that he would have complicated feelings upon his return.

Instead of entering through the main gate, he went through one of the side gates. On the city wall, Tian Men glanced at him but did not give much thought. Heavenly Hunt Pavilion members had been coming nonstop for the past two days. He couldn't be bothered to pay too much attention to their affairs.

Inner hall, mayor's residence.

The stone statue suddenly opened his eyes.

His gaze instantly landed on Su Yu.

Even Invincibles might not necessarily detect Su Yu instantly. After all, Invincibles wouldn't be scanning their surroundings all the time without stopping. But when someone with so much death qi in them walked in, that person was basically shouting that he was a mayor. And when the stone statue opened his eyes, sure enough, it was that brat.

He had heard that Grandstar was actually able to leave the city. Leaving the city! Was that related to this kid?

The stone statue had an unfriendly expression as he looked at Su Yu. This person had taken his stuff and created big troubles for him before leaving to convert into a resident in Grandstar City.

Was that proper? This brat had basically left him with all the troubles while letting Grandstar enjoy all the benefits. He had so generously taught the damn brat the breathing technique, the vibration technique, and three talismans!

Heavendoom was completely neglecting the fact that the two techniques had been learned by Su Yu without any guidance from him. As far as Heavendoom was concerned, Su Yu had still learned those from him.

Heavendoom was feeling greatly jealous of Grandstar. But soon, he consoled himself. It was not a bad thing for this walking disaster to not stay in his city. This brat was simply too good at stirring up trouble. If this damn brat dared to cause trouble in his city again, Heavendoom swore he would...he would send all the death qi into the brat's body!

Hah! That would teach the brat a lesson!

Speaking of, if he did that, would he be able to leave the city and enjoy a stroll outside as well?

After looking at Su Yu, Tian He looked like an inferior product in his eyes.

He had always been quite happy with this mayor. But now...wow. This was such a useless mayor. Just look at Su Yu. Even when he was outside his city, he was still withstanding a large amount of death qi for the city. What about you, Tian He?

What a useless mayor.

Heavendoom felt so terrible that he shut his eyes and decided to stop looking and thinking anymore.

That damn brat better not cause trouble in the city. Heavendoom swore to punish the brat by locking the brat in the city for three years if the brat dared to cause trouble again. The brat would have to share some of his burden during the imprisonment. And yes, this was also in accordance with the laws. He had simply never bothered to do so in the past.

***

Su Yu, who had just entered the city, was naturally unaware of what the stone statue was thinking. Nor was he aware that his presence in the city was akin to a gleaming star in the sky, instantly catching the attention of the stone statue.

With his mask on, he moved like a ghost, flickering about in the air. As a member of the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion, he had to maintain his enigmatic persona. How could a Heavenly Hunt Pavilion member walk on the ground like a normal person? It was on brand for them to be all mysterious.

As he flickered about, he noticed some other people flickering about as well. Oh, those were his fellow Heavenly Hunt Pavilion members! When Su Yu turned to look at one of them, the other person looked at him as well.

Since both of them were masked, this guy better not pick trouble with him. After all, the pavilion frowned upon internal conflict.

"Hmm? What mask is that?"

Su Yu was slightly stunned. Regardless of whether it was a white or black mask, the mask came with the regular features of a face. Meanwhile, he was looking at a faceless mask, as though the mask was an empty sheet of paper.

Suddenly, he recalled something.

"Elder!"

This was an elder! A big shot!

Someone who was at least a seventh-stage Sunmoon. He had barely killed people at that cultivation level. He had killed less than twenty of them so far. This was an expert!

So which elder was this? Su Yu was unsure. He merely cupped his hands in greeting before vanishing with another flicker. But the elder reappeared beside him with a flicker as well.

The two looked at each other again. Understanding dawned on Su Yu. Right, they were going to the same place. So they would naturally move in the same direction.

"Which department are you from?"

The elder asked, speaking in a gruff voice.

"Profound Department."

"Profound Department?"

The elder blanked out slightly and asked, "Is this Profound Nine?"

"..."

Silence descended.

After a short stun, Su Yu asked, "A-are you First Profound Elder?"

Su Yu's speed instantly skyrocketed. He had actually encountered his boss! No, that wasn't the point here. More importantly, this elder knew his true identity.

Apart from the stone statue, this elder was probably the only person aware of his real identity. This was a late-stage Sunmoon. He had to be careful and keep a distance between them.

This was dangerous!

First Profound knew his identity. First Profound was also aware that he was rich, very rich! He had to be careful. If he died of a sudden attack, not even the stone statue could save him.

A jade talisman appeared in his hand. That was one of the three talismans he had received from Grandstar. Even when he was about a kilometer away from the elder, he maintained his wariness.

Meanwhile, First Profound was rendered completely speechless. What the fuck was that? Also, why was this fellow the first person he encountered? More importantly, was this how a subordinate should behave in front of their direct superior?

"Profound Nine!" First Profound ordered, "Get over here! Look at how you're behaving!"

Why was he running from his direct superior?

Su Yu was still wary. He asked through his mask, "Elder, is the person in front of me you?"

"Yes. Why are you running? Won't this cause misunderstandings if others see this?"

"Elder, is this really you?"

"Stop wasting time!"

"Uhm...will you attack me?"

"No."

"Elder, I'm very tight with Big Brother Stone Statue of Heavendoom City. I'm telling the truth. My breathing technique, vibration technique, and the teleportation talismans I used previously were all given by him as gifts! If you dare to make a move against me here, you're dead, Elder!"

"Shut up!"

First Profound berated in an annoyed voice. Why must this little shit treat everyone with suspicion? When did he say that he wanted to kill the little shit?

Reminded of something, First Profound asked, "Did you hide all those resources well? Be careful lest the divines and devils sense them. After all, you received those resources from them."

"..."

Su Yu stared at the elder silently. As for First Profound, he was relatively unbothered. It was only natural for him to show some concern to his subordinate, right?

A short while later, the two resumed their journey. In Su Yu's hands were three talismans he was aiming straight at the elder's back regardless of his deferential posture. He asked, "Elder, when did you reach the city?"

"I've been here for a few days. Also, can you stop aiming those things at me?"

First Profound was left completely speechless. He could feel the sense of crisis brought upon by those talismans. Just what were those things? Talismans? Did the brat receive them from the stone statue as well? They felt incredibly strong.

The two flickered through the city as they moved. After a while, First Profound spoke, "Are you really entering the Human Realm?"

"Yes."

"Will you be fine if you stay away from the ancient city for long?"

"I'll be fine. My Big Brother Stone Statue told me that if I encounter any trouble, he will rip space apart and take me away instantly."

First Profound said, "Not even a Pseudo Emperor can enter a realm directly from the Allheaven Battlefield like that. That stone statue might be strong, but it is still below the Pseudo Emperor Realm."

"Elder, Pseudo Emperor is a title, not an actual cultivation realm."

Su Yu clicked his tongue disapprovingly. His elder sure was ignorant. Pseudo Emperor was merely a title. The big brothers of all ancient races were called Pseudo Emperors. That was not a cultivation realm.

First Profound sneered, "That's an outdated concept. These days, that title represented strength as well. The leaders of some ancient races are no longer calling themself Pseudo Emperors before reaching a certain level of strength. Nowadays, any publicly acknowledged Pseudo Emperor is an Invincible almost as strong as an Emperor."

Many, many years ago, Pseudo Emperor was indeed a title. The leader of each race could be called that. Only the leader of the human race could be called an Emperor. This system was put in place to remind everyone that they would always be below the human race.

But that had changed with time. Without sufficient strength, one would not be considered a Pseudo Emperor.

Su Yu was quite surprised. Was that so? He still didn't understand it that well. For him, Pseudo Emperors and Invincibles were the same since they could all kill him with one slap. He was still feeling quite nervous since someone aware of his real identity was right before him. In fact, he was so wary that he even wondered if it would be better for him to kill First Profound.
