Chapter 900: Kill A Mountainsea For Fun (3)

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Inside the city, the Mountainsea of the mystic armor race stared at the newcomer for a long while before asking, "Zheng Ping?"

Zheng Ping laughed heartily, "Yes, it's me. Do you remember me?"

He looked around and asked doubtfully, "Is Su Yu here? Which Su Yu are you talking about? I only know about Cui Lang and Huang Teng. Isn't Su Yu still in the Human Realm?"

He looked at the mystic armors again and laughed, "Come out here and have some fun. Show me what you're going to do about the deaths of your people. How dare pieces of trash like you run your mouth against us humans? You sure are getting gutsy."

Zheng Ping roared with laughter, standing with one foot on the corpse of a mystic armor Sunmoon. At the moment, he seemed more like a thug than a principal.

He was putting so much force on his feet that even the ground under him was cracking. With a sneer, he spoke loudly, "Little Bastards, looks like you guys need to receive a little lesson if you're going to learn that the human race is not afraid of you. Mystic armor race? Do you think you're a very big deal? Mystic Armor King should continue hiding back home. Heavenly Forging King has been waiting for him for over a hundred years. He can try coming out if he wants, but I reckon he will be turned into weaponsmithing material the moment he steps out."

Nobody said anything. This was a human Sunmoon. He was acting oppressively in an absolutely unrestrained manner.

After giving the mystic armor corpse another look, Zheng Ping laughed, "How hard. I'll take this thing back and get someone to forge me something nice. This is some quality forging material."

He then picked up the armor from the ground.

Done with that, he glanced at the people staring at him from inside the city and grinned, "Little bastards, in the future, remember to watch your mouth in front of people from Great Xia. Have you forgotten our blade after only a few years of peace? You there..."

He pointed at the Mountainsea who had charged Su Yu an entrance fee earlier and said, "Stop acting up in front of humans. Have you forgotten that one time when the Martial Dragon Guard killed its way right to the front steps of your Heavendoom City? With a single swing of our prefect's blade, your mayor started crying for his mother."

With a cold snort, Zheng Ping looked in the direction of the towering mayor's residence and roared, "Great Xia is still around! We can still fight! If you want to start stepping all over us, wait until Great Xia no longer exists. As long as we are still around, you guys will remain trampled under us. These are my words. What can you do about it?"

Remain trampled under them.

He was being extremely rude, but nobody in the city dared to even make a noise.

He sneered and continued, "Don't get too cocky just because you have this ancient city to act as your shell. Don't forget that the city does not belong to you. You all are nothing but a bunch of puppets. Do you want to see the Martial Dragon Guard surround the city? You will either have to stay in the city forever or come out and die."

His killing intent soared as he said those words. It wasn't like there were no Sunmoons in the city. But even those with higher cultivation levels than Zheng Ping did not dare to say anything.

Martial Dragon Guard. One of the most murderous armies to have graced the Allheaven Battlefield. Under Xia Longwu's leadership, they once killed their way out of the Eastrift Valley and through the Plain of Desires to reach this city.

The army remained outside the city while Xia Longwu entered alone. Three days later, he left and brought the army back. At the time, the mayor nearly perished under Xia Longwu's blade. It took Xia Longwu only one slash. More than ten years had passed, but many people still remember that incident.

Now, Great Xia had stopped their endless wars in the Allheaven Battlefield. But nobody could forget the rivers of blood spilled by the Martial Dragon Guard back then. Xia Longwu, someone with an Invincible even before becoming an Invincible. The Carnage King.

The Mountainsea commander of the city said nothing even when Zheng Ping was scolding him right in front of him. In truth, he wasn't really afraid of Zheng Ping. But not even the residents of ancient cities could stay inside their cities forever. There was no need for him to provoke a lunatic from Great Xia.

Suddenly, Su Yu appeared and looked at Zheng Ping with stupefaction.

Holy shit!

Wasn't this Zheng Ping? Had he always been this domineering? Why did he look so pitiful in Great Xia? He had been bullied by Wan Tiansheng for many years. Su Yu also heard that people like General Zhao, Administrator Hu, Director Ji Hong, and Marquis Xia had been bullying him for many years as well...

Basically, he would be made scapegoat for most scandals. Marquis Xia would only be the scapegoat for scandals that were too big for Zheng Ping to bear. One could say that Marquis Xia and Zheng Ping were professional scapegoats.

Zheng Ping. Principal of the Great Xia War Academy.

Su Yu had seen Zheng Ping before. Back then, he only felt that Principal Zheng was a pitiful old man. After all, Great Xia was supposed to be a prefecture of warriors, but for some reason, its cultural academy was way more famous than its war academy.

That was most likely due to Ye Batian. He alone was enough to overshadow everything. But today, in the Allheaven Battlefield, and in front of a mysterious ancient city, this person had displayed overwhelming dominance. Even when he was carrying heavy injuries on his body.

Su Yu could sense that. In fact, a lot of people sensed that. This human had killed a Sunmoon from the mystic armor race. That was a terrifying feat. When he stood in front of the city and scolded them, nobody dared to say anything.

Even the mayor, a ninth-stage Sunmoon, was not doing anything. It was unknown if he simply wasn't aware or he simply didn't care.

Zheng Ping looked at Su Yu doubtfully.

Wasn't it supposed to be Cui Lang?

Why did it become this kid?

"Are you really Su Yu?"

What in the world was going on? He was getting confused.

Whatever. He didn't need to understand. He asked, "Where are Huang Teng and Wu Qi?"

"We split up. They ran to my right."

"Oh." Zheng Ping nodded. He looked at Su Yu in surprise, "You seem fine?"

"Yes."

"Oh...well, I'm leaving. You'll have to go back yourself. I still need to save them. After all, that's a military order. Just be careful when you're going back. A few Sunmoons are lying in ambush. I think..."

He switched to voice transmission, "It's a scheme by the brats from the immortal race. Just be careful. I really have something else to do so I can't help you here. If you die, that's Great Ming's business. But if those two die, that will be my responsibility."

Su Yu was left completely speechless. What a realistic man. Since he was no longer someone from Great Xia, his death would have nothing to do with this old man. Had this old man forgotten the Pure Source Art his family had received for free? Had this old man forgotten how much his family had earned from that art?

Su Yu said, "Grandpa Zheng, I killed a few demonic beasts earlier. Do you want to take their corpses with you? But that fellow took them all from me as the entrance fee..."

"Demonic beasts?"

Zheng Ping was quite surprised. Just how strong would the beasts be if even this kid could kill them? Since he didn't have an index copy on him, he was still unaware of the latest happenings. He was in a rush to save Huang Teng and Wu Qi. He didn't have the time to care about anything else.

Thus, he didn't feel anything when he heard Su Yu's mention of demonic beasts. Regardless of whether they were Skysoars or Cloudbreaches, he didn't care. He would only care if it was the blood essence of divines or devils.

Zheng Ping was still wondering when the Mountainsea guard waved his hand and tossed the three beasts out. With a sigh, he declared, "People of Great Xia are exempted from the entrance fee."

He was very straightforward. These days, the brave were afraid of the fools, while the fools were afraid of the crazy. And Great Xia was basically what one would call crazy. Su Yu shrugged. He wanted to say that he was from Great Ming, but there was no need to explain. He was happy as long as these fellows weren't able to benefit from him.

First, Zheng Ping looked at the corpses. Then, he looked at Su Yu before looking at the corpses again. This repeated about eight times. He suspected that someone was using illusions against him.

It was already very surprising to see Su Yu here. He had been too busy to keep up with the latest news. And what the fuck was he looking at? Did the kid kill these beasts?

"Mountainsea?"

He focused on one of the corpses and looked at Su Yu before muttering, "A Mountainsea...you're not Su Yu!"

What a liar! His eyes turned cold. Who was this? What trick did this person use to fool even his senses? This wasn't Su Yu! Screw this!

Su Yu was at a similar level as his grandson. And his grandson had just reached the Skysoar Realm through physical cultivation not long ago. If this brat was really Su Yu...what...what could he say?

But it wasn't impossible. The brat had defeated Shan Xiong previously. And Shan Xiong was very strong. At that time, the brat was already as strong as a Cloudbreach. And a few months had passed since then. Some growth was expected.

But this was still too hard to believe. Su Yu? Killing a Mountainsea? Fuck that. He refused to believe that. This must be a lie.

He was cursing, but he didn't hesitate to take the offered corpses. It didn't matter if everything was a lie. The corpses before him were real. He would not say no to this valuable gift.

After putting the corpses away, he stared at Su Yu for a long while before speaking with a grunt, "Our Yunhui lent you tens of thousands of merit points previously. Do you still remember that? If you're Su Yu, time to pay the debt."

Su Yu smiled, "Twenty thousand merit points for one cultivation method. Is that not enough? Also, it was a cooperative relationship from the very start. He managed to harvest a lot of benefits from the single character faction as well."

At that, Zheng Ping had no choice but to accept that this was really Su Yu. This made zero sense. Did this kid really kill a Mountainsea? Truly terrifying.

"Are you coming with me?"

When he noted that Su Yu wasn't very keen on leaving, he sent a voice transmission, "Don't enter the ancient city. These ancient cities are very complicated. The prefect entered once, but he left with heavy injuries. That was why he had to retreat after entering the city. Back then, the boundlessly confident prefect wanted to flip the city upside down and slaughter his way to the Sea of Stars. But instead, his campaign was stopped by a single ancient city. He had no choice but to pull back behind the Eastrift Valley."

Xia Longwu!

Domineering.

That was the only word Su Yu had for Xia Longwu. That was truly a domineering person.

He had killed his way from the Eastrift Valley to this place. He even wanted to kill his way through the ancient city and enter the Sea of Stars, a territory dominated by the demonic beasts. Not even the word ruthless was enough to describe him as a person.

One would never understand the fear the myriad races had over Xia Longwu's dao affirmation without entering the Allheaven Battlefield. Even before his dao affirmation, Xia Longwu was already courageous enough to attack an ancient city. What would he do after his dao affirmation?

Perhaps he would really turn the ancient city upside down and kill his way to the core territory of the demonic beasts. What a crazy man.

Without coming to the Allheaven Battlefield, one wouldn't know that Principal Zheng, the eternally bullied existence in Great Xia, was actually such a domineering individual. What about those bullies in Great Xia? Would they be just as domineering out here?

What about General Zhao? And Administrator Hu? Were those people capable of dominating this place as well?

Su Yu replied with a voice transmission as well, "I understand. Thanks, Grandpa Zheng. I have my plans. Just go help Huang Teng and Wu Qi first. They're so weak. They nearly got themselves killed by Tianduo..."

"..."

Zheng Ping had an odd look in his eyes. He had the sudden urge to wrap his fingers around the brat's neck.

Su Yu smiled and turned into a gust of wind, vanishing yet again. Why should he leave? It hadn't been easy for him to leave the Human Realm. He was already right outside the ancient city. Why should he leave without entering? But there was a need for him to enter with a disguise.

He was way too conspicuous now. As for whether he would attempt to enter through the main gate, that remained to be seen. He wasn't sure if he could make it through. After all, even Mo Duona had struggled with it. In any case, leaving with Zheng Ping wasn't one of his plans.

When Zheng Ping saw Su Yu vanishing, he spread his senses around before grumbling that the brat sure was fast. The brat seemed to have a lot of trump cards. There was no need for him to worry too much.

"Cui Lang, Su Yu..."

He finally understood the meaning of Marquis Xia's words. If he saw Cui Lang, he should offer his help if it wasn't too much trouble. If he couldn't help, so be it. That brat wouldn't die so easily.

So the brat was actually Su Yu. Did the marquis know this long ago? How terrifying. The brat was already strong enough to kill a Mountainsea. Zheng Ping had a sullen expression. That grandson of his had fallen too far behind.

Whatever. He tossed the matter to the back of his mind and headed to the right of the city. His current priority was Huang Teng and Wu Qi. Those were the actual members of Great Xia while this brat had already joined Great Ming. In any case, the brat had way too many trump cards. Zheng Ping even suspected that the brat would still be alive and well even after his death.

After Zheng Ping left, the people in the city finally dared to speak.

One of the Mountainseas sighed and said, "Great Xia...Martial Dragon Guard...a bunch of butchers. How fortunate."

He did not further elaborate. But everyone knew what he meant. Fortunately, Great Xia was too poor to fight more wars. Fortunately, Xia Longwu was on the verge of dao affirmation, catching the attention of the myriad races.

Otherwise, that butcher would probably muster his army and butcher his way to the ancient city yet again after learning about the attacks on the human geniuses. Instead, only Zheng Ping was here.

Everyone started dispersing. It was time to move on or more lives would be lost. So many people had died suddenly today. The mystic armor race sure was unlucky. Even their Sunmoon was killed by one of the mad butchers. It was indeed a bad idea to provoke those mad butchers. A Sunmoon was a big deal everywhere, but someone like that had been killed so easily.

As for Mo Duona's arrival and Su Yu's departure, they decided to stop making further comments about them. These super geniuses wouldn't die so easily. And if they did anything wrong, they could end up dead in the hands of these super geniuses instead.

It would be wise for ordinary people like them to stay out of the conflict between the young geniuses.

At the same time.

Su Yu was racking his brain for a new disguise. Should he enter through the main gate? He really wanted to experience the ancient city for himself.

It would be too regretful to not experience an ancient city after entering the Allheaven Battlefield. Mo Duona was right. Compared to killing, these ancient cities were a lot more interesting.
