Chapter 1618: Su Yu The Narcissist (1)

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Martial King's descendant.

Su Yu had never considered that possibility. Was a wild child like Zhou Hao, who had grown up in the wilderness, really a descendant of Martial King?

Why was a descendant of Martial King doing so badly? Wait, that wasn't surprising. It had been a hundred thousand years. No matter how impressive Martial King was, long enough had passed for his bloodline to spread far and wide. Any random person on the street could be his descendant.

Bloodline might be important, but bloodline wasn't everything. One's accomplishments in life ultimately depended on one's hard work. Even with a powerful bloodline, a cowardly Martial King's descendant would still be nothing. The bloodline would only provide one with a better starting point, but that was all.

Su Yu wasn't too bothered about this matter. He laughed and said, "Come on in."

A short while later, Zhou Hao entered the living room of Su Residence.

Su Yu was leisurely sipping tea.

With a stiff expression and a tiny bit of wildness in his eyes, Zhou Hao cupped his fists and said, "Zhou Hao, a student of Great Xia Cultural Research Academy, greets Mayor Su!"

Su Yu asked, "Where is Xia Yuwen? He's your teacher, right?"

"He went to the Allheaven Battlefield."

"Why didn't you follow?"

"I'm too weak."

"A Skysoar isn't that much of a weakling anymore." Su Yu said, "You must be aware of what Director Ji said. Xia Yuwen used to be my enemy. Our past conflict is no longer important, but why should I train a student for him? What if Xia Yuwen told you to kill me when you grew strong in the future? What would your choice be?"

"Stay neutral."

Su Yu laughed and said, "Is that all? Is that all I get after training you to the point you're strong enough to kill me? Do you understand how much time, resources, and energy this task will take me? Do you think this answer is good enough for me?"

Zhou Hao said, "Suppress both of you."

"..."

Su Yu chuckled, "Suppressing both of us? Are you aware that being unfilial toward your teachers is a despicable act even among the myriad races?"

"Yes." Zhou Hao said, "In that case, I have nothing to say. I know what answer you want, but Teacher Xia was the one who had taken me out of the wilderness. Without him, I would have been eaten by some wild beasts long ago."

Su Yu sneered and said, "He only considered you a wild beast to be tamed."

"I have always been a wild beast."

Su Yu laughed again. He said, "It's pointless to talk about this. Who knows what will happen in the future? We are quite familiar with each other, so let's not waste time and be straightforward. What can you give me for my guidance?"

"I can kill for you."

Su Yu asked, "Who can you kill?"

"With enough strength, anyone."

Su Yu took another sip of tea and said, "Do you kill humans as well?"

After a short silence, Zhou Hao said, "Yes. If that is your wish."

"What about Xia Yuwen?"

"That's my teacher." Zhou Hao met Su Yu's gaze and said, "My teacher is very weak. You're already one of the hegemons of the Myriad Realms. He won't be able to escape you if you want him dead. Since he's still alive, why are you asking this question repeatedly?"

Su Yu chuckled and said, "I like asking such questions. What can you do about it? Are you the one here for guidance, or am I the one here for guidance? Back then, I had to go through countless difficulties before I could become Teacher Bai's student. Do you think getting a teacher is so easy?"

"I don't have such experience."

Zhou Hao was telling the truth. When Xia Yuwen accepted him, the process was much simpler. He was brought back directly to Great Xia before being registered as Xia Yuwen's student officially. There was nothing complicated about it.

Su Yu said, "Fine. Let's get to business. Punch me."

Boom!

Su Yu did not even bother to dodge. He allowed the punch to land on his throat, but he was completely unaffected. After taking another sip of tea, he smiled and asked, "Did you not eat today?"

Zhou Hao's expression changed slightly as he roared and attacked at an even faster speed.

Instantly, Su Yus head, eyes, chest, and crotch were attacked by numerous punches and kicks. When the attacks were about to reach his crotch...Su Yu sent Zhou Hao flying with a kick.

However, Zhou Hao recovered instantly and charged forth again before clawing at Su Yu's eyes, ears, and other body parts.

Su Yu sighed and said, "Too weak. You don't even have the strength of ten thousand acupoints. I can't be bothered to even put up my defenses."

Zhou Hao said nothing and continued attacking, to the point his fists and legs started bleeding.

Punches, claws, palm strikes...he used all the attacks he knew.

He even used his pitifully weak characters that were probably not even Skysoar characters. Meanwhile, Su Yu felt as though a weak breeze was massaging him. he said, "Too weak. Why don't you take a rest if you're too tired?"

Zhou Hao ignored the provocation and focused on Su Yu's throat. After several punches, he roared, drew a blade, and swung it. But when the blade struck, it only generated some sparks.

Su Yu laughed and said, "You can't even break through my skin. Too weak."

Zhou Hao remained silent and proceeded to ignite his blood, looking like he was going to go even wilder...before proceeding to vanish with a flicker.

Su Yu blanked out.

Outside the residence, Zhou Hao stated, "Since I couldn't beat you, I scared you before fleeing."

"..."

Was this a fucking joke?

Scaring him?

Su Yu was left speechless. Wow. So scary.

"Get back in here."

Zhou Hao entered and said, "I can't even break through your skin. It's pointless for me to keep attacking."

"So you do know that fleeing is an option."

Su Yu was very surprised.

Zhou Hao said, "Since I can't win, I'll die. Why can't I flee in such a situation?"

"True." Su Yu asked, "When you grow strong, will you fight for humanity?"

Zhou Hao stared at Su Yu blankly, surprised at the random question.

What was the meaning of that?

Su Yu said, "Tell me your thoughts."

Zhou Hao continued blanking out. After a long while, he answered, "I...I'll help anyone who is kind to me. I don't know...about humanity...and all that."

Clearly, he was in a state of confusion. This was a question he had never considered before.

Su Yu sighed and said, "What a pity. Your talent is wasted on you since you never even considered fighting for the greatness of humanity."

Zhou Hao still looked confused.

Su Yu said, "So be it. That doesn#039;t matter. I only need you to kill for me. That is enough. There is no need for emotions in our dealings. As long as you have the talent and willingness to kill for me, I'll be willing to teach you. Feelings are fickle. A relationship maintained by feelings is unreliable. Let benefits tie us to each other instead, even if you are of no worth to me currently."

He took a chart out and said, "Take a look and start opening your acupoints."

Zhou Hao memorized the chart and said, "There are only 359 acupoints here."

"Yes!"

Su Yu grinned and said, "You need 360 acupoints to reach the grand cycle."

"Then..."

"The final acupoint is located somewhere on your ass. Look for it yourself. That is your trial. If you can't even get through this trial, there is no need for us to keep wasting time with each other."

Zhou Hao nodded and asked, "Will I be as strong as you after opening all 360 of them?"

"Not at all." Su Yu said, "I have 360 acupoints, 360 apertures, a 72-forged body, countless cultivation methods and techniques, rich experience fighting Invincibles, numerous characters, and a powerful willpower cultivation. Even if your body is as strong as mine, you will still be helpless against me."

Even if Zhou Hao were to open 360 apertures and complete 72 body forgings, Su Yu still wouldn't fear him. With all the tricks Su Yu could pull, Zhou Hao would not be a match for Su Yu even with the same physical strength.

Su Yu asked, "How long will you take to open these apertures?"

"I'm already a Skysoar. Opening new acupoints is harder. To open ninety acupoints, I'll need at least three months."

Three months? Su Yu cursed inwardly. One acupoint per day? That was actually an incredible speed for a Skysoar. Su Yu remembered that back then, even he himself was slower.

Su Yu asked, "What are the resources you need for this?"

"One drop of mountainbreak bull blood essence per day."

"Only that?"

"Yes!"

Fuck!

Was that all? With only a drop of mountainbreak bull blood essence per day, he could open one acupoint each day.

Heavenly source fruits were naturally the best resource for acupoint opening. Unlike heavenly source qi, the energy in heavenly source fruits was much gentler. Then again, Su Yu could produce heavenly source qi that was as gentle as what one could get from heavenly source fruits.

"How long will you take with one heavenly source fruit per day?"

"One fruit per day?"

"Yes."

Zhou Hao thought about it and answered, "No more than one month."

He paused slightly and asked, "Can I eat all thirty fruits at once? That might increase the speed by a lot."

Su Yu laughed and asked, "Are you not afraid of bursting your body apart?"

"My body is strong enough. At the Skysoar Realm, I can consume a lot of treasures without bursting apart."

"How long will you take if you can eat all the heavenly source fruits upfront?"

"Twenty!"

Su Yu said, "You're very confident. Four to five acupoints per day...that is almost comparable to me. What if you couldn't do it after receiving my heavenly source fruits? I'm talking about the final acupoint you need to open blindly as well."

"Since I can't afford to repay you, Ill avoid you."

"Is that all?"

Zhou Hao sank into silence. After a short while, he said, "I can kill one person for you. Anytime. Anywhere."

"Can you kill Tiangu?"

"Yes. After I become an Invincible!'

What a useless promise.
